Fisher Bros, commenced work this week on a new prune drier for Graeper and Jones. A large number o f patrons and friends o f the school had a merry picnic dinner in the school grove on Saturday, June tenth, after which the pupils of the high school and grammar school gave a very interesting program. At three o ’clock the stores closed and the whole community took a holiday to enjoy the ball game between the boys and the mar ried men. The men were the victors, but the boys are not afraid to try them again. Mr. and Mrs. Lee Eddens entertained the pupils o f the Dundee school on Wednesday evening, June seventh. A jolly evening o f music and games fol lowed by dainty refreshments was enjoyed by the young folks. Mrs. El win S. Greer spent tjie week end in Portland. All the available teams o f the neighborhood are busy hauling gravel for improvements • on the county road from the crossroads toward the “ East t)rier.” Even Mr. Keyes’s second team is pressed into service driven by his young son, Francis, in the absence o f Mr. Jannsen. The men o f this road district are very proud o f their toads and challenge any district in “ Old Yamhill’’ to show equal activity. C i . v . r Fa t Irian. Napoleon was decidedly embon point. Dr. Johnson was fleshy even to flabbiness. So was his biograph ical shadow, Boswell. Balzac, the great French novelist, was so atout that it was a day’s exercise to walk aronnd him, and he was encircled with bandages as if he were a hogs head- Rossini, the composer, waa a regular Jumbo, since for six years he never saw bis knees. Jules Janin, the prince of critics, broke every sofa he ever tat down upon. Lablache, the great singer, waa charged three fares when he trav eled. Dumas pere was stout, and Sainte-Beuve carried- the stomach of a Falstaff, the same as Renan. Eugene Sue had such aversion to his growing corpulency that he drank vinegar to keep it down. M ER CH AN D ISE ELEPHANT LABORERS. Steriae That Ara Told About Thoiv Wonderful Clovomooo. In eastern countries elephants do wonderful work in the way of drag ging and sorting timber and in breaking up obstructions caused by logs and miscellaneous flotsam in streams. An English army official says he haa often watched the ele- bants in a timber yard, and the oman way in which they will test the weight of a log requires to be seen to be credited. The tusker will lift up one end with his trunk, and if he deems it within his power to lift the whole he will shift his trank gradually until he gets to the exact center; then by kneeling down he will rail the log on to his tusks and will earry it either to be stacked or to the sawmill. On tea estates the elephants are occasionally employed to help in building const motion by keeping the masons supplied with blocks of stone, and if the wall be not too high they will not only take the block up, but lay it quite correctly in its proper place. A Ceylon ele phant used regularly to lay stones in this way under the orders of an overseer, to whom he used to sig nal to inspect and “ pass” the work done and to give permission for fresh courses to he laid. On one occasion the elephant placed himself against part of the wall, thus presenting the overseer from examining that part of the job. The latter, however, insisted on the animal moving aside, and the elephant, seeing his rase had failed, at once began to pull down the wall which he had just built and which he was quite aware was bad ly done at the very spot where he had tried to conceal it from the eye of his master. A Burmese ship captain also tells a storv of a female elephant which he, wliile anchored off the coast, frequently saw come out of the jun gle to bathe in the sea, accompa nied by her youngster. The little chap used to keep in the shallow water while the mother ventured farther out, but one morning, while his parent was not looking, the youngster got beyond his depth, be came frightened and made a great to-do. The mother palled him aahore and gave him a good spank ing with her trank. Each succeed ing morning the little one was com pelled to stand on the bank while the mother flnt bathed herself and afterward washed him down with £ water fetched in her trank.— Fear- Sheriffs Sale of Personal Pro- son’« Weekly. party. A Patient Prieoilla. Katie, of Pennsylvania Dutch descent, had served for ten years in a wealthy Virginia family. For more than half o f this term of service one Jacob of her own people had at intervals come a-call- ing. He had sat in the kitchen and watched the deft and skillful move ments of Katie with marked respect and ponderous admiration, hut he had never “ spoken.” A t length to ward the end of the seventh year she took the reins of destiny in her own hands and addressed her ad mirer thus: “ Veil, Zhakoh, if yer vants me yer can zhust haf me.” A light dawned in the mild blue eye of Jacob. Bringing his hand down gently on his knees, he re plied: “ I vas zhust about to mention it.” — Harper’s Monthly.

There was good talk at a tea par ty given once at the observatory of Cambridge, England. Sydney Smith was there, and, although he took the wonderful work of the place se riously, he had a light manner of expressing himself. The party had been led up to look at Jupiter, and this was his comment: “ Jupiter? If you hadn’t told me I should have taken it for a bad shilling.” “ Where is Sir John Herschel?” asked one of the guests. “ He is at Cape of Good Hope,” said the astronomer, Airy. “ He was ordered' there to observe the stars of the southern hemisphere.” “ Ah!” said Sydney Smith. “ I supposed you astronomers wi\en you are ill are advised to change your stars just as we ordinary mortals are told to change our air.” ■ — RHEUMATISM CAN BE CURED True To The Name W e mean BLUE RIBBON BUGGIES.

Lord Dufferin alwavs said that • the happiest years of liis long oflf j cial life were those spent in Calcut ta. He reveled in the sunshine. A friend one day exposulated with him for his reckless exposure of himself to the weather. “ Well, you see,” said the viceroy, “ they have always sent me to cold places. They sent me as viceroy to Canada, where one must live two-thirds of the year in buffalo furs. They sent me to St. Petersburg, where one has to hibernate like a bear. So when thev ordered me to India I rubbed my Panda and said to myself. ‘Now I can hang myself up to dry.’ ” A Good Assortment at N. C.
