THH SUNSHINE MAN Did y'ever hear about th' funny, sunny Sunshine Man? He's got a heart that's bigger than yer gran'ma's warmin' pan, a head that's like it's all on fire, 'n feet that's made of gold, 'n a grin jes' like a watermillion cut in two, I'm told; 'n lie sprinkles out the sunshine from a great big watcrin' can, 'n ye jes' can't help a laffin' at the Sunshine Man. 'N when yer heart is heavy, 'n yc feel ye'd like to cry, 'n yc ain't got frien's or mony, 'n the whole world's gone nway, 'n when life doesn't seem worth while, or when yer down an' out 'n lost yer faith in ever' thing, or who;-. 1 yer mind's in doubt then ye cheer up of a sudden, 'n a brighter sky you scan do ye want to know what's happened? It's the Sunshine Man. TAKE CARE OF THE HA 1ft Summer weather is hard on the baby Proper feed will prevent many deaths. Mother's milk is the only perfect fori for a baby. Clean, fresh, cow's mill:, properly modified and pasteurized is the best substitute. Topasteurize milk, place the bottles containing the milk in a double boiler, put in a them ometer and heat until the water is 150 degrees. Then push the boiler to the back of the stove and keep the temper ature between MO and 150 degrees for thirty minutes. This kills all the germs. If you have no thermometer, heat until the water around the bottles comes to a boil, then let stand for thir-J ty minutes. Hottle milk should be di luted with boiled water, and cooled boiled water given freely between feed ings. Clothing in summer should be light, and 'the baby kept out of doors as much as possible, except when it is very hot. He should be bathed morn ing and evening, and on hot days, in the middle of the day. If diarrhoea appears, the baby's food should bo til luted with boiled water, and the a mount much decreased. If there is vomiting aifd fever, stop all food, giv ing boiled water, and call a physician. INFORM THE EDITOR One of the most difficult of the ch tor's jobs is to get facts about births, marriages and deaths. People seem to think he oqght to know theso'thingn by intuition. If not that, the birth, marriage or death is of such iinportan ance in the immediate family that it is presumed the editor will be informed by some wireless or just grow into the information. Then, when the paper comes out, and no mention is made of the evept, the editor is blamed for not running a good newspaper or not get ting all the news. Remember thero are a good many people in this county. If the editor knew each of them y name, besides their family history and the chief events in the lives of every individual, he wouldn't he an editor. He'd be a demi-god, resting his fout on a cloud sipping ambrosia instead of inhabiting a broken-down office chair and wondering where the money for the next white paper bill is com ing from. The life of the average newspaper man is a gay one. Gather ing news is second nature to him, like picking his teeth with the office pen and cussing the office towel. Just the same, there's a limit to his omnis cience. Last week, we thought of a million, eight hundred and forty nin. thousand three hundred and sixty four things of importance, besides a couple of hundred thousand small items un worthy of mentin. And it was a slow week. We're nnxious for news for the paper, and it won't put you out much to drop by the office or telephone us whutH happening at your bonne. Then if the Item doesn't get in the paper, you have a right to come down and kick the stuffing out of the rot. Othenvixe, don't hliime uw.

P .Morgan lias . ,. . the bomb in the Senate reception room of the United States Capital and much of the mystery of the crime is cleared. Apparently there is little reason to believe that this outrage by this man Holt, believed to be a Cor nell professor is other than the work of a fanatic who has brooded over the European war until his mind has le come disordered and he has conceived a plan to arouse a national protest against American contribution to the war supplies of Germany's enemies. The wouldbe slnycr of Morgan was a visitor in Washington shortly be fore his desperate deed and planner the outrage at the Senate reception room in a rented room only a few doors away from tho national capi tal where he made the bomb in the course of a few hours. The bomb con sisted of a bored hole in three joint ed sticks of dynamite, the placing of i match therein and a bottle of su! jtic acid. When Holt readied the Senate wing lie tipped the bottle of fjlfuric acid and the fluid began eat ing its way through tho cork to the match heads and dynamite. Later he f rolled to the barber shop in the Up! on Station, two blocks away, where hi got a shave and hair cut. After re- turning to his room he took the traipjwit, Oregon scenes and history Hills for N. Y.

' Chief Justice White, of tho United States Supreme Court, has decined to pay any attention to the telegram sen4 to him by Gen. Huerta asking the in- terfence of tho court in his case. The clerk of the court, however, took the 'he telegram, which was in Spanish, to tho State Department for trans- I lation. A preliminary exchange of views is now proceeding informally between the United States and Germany re warding tho nature of the German re ply to tho American note respecting submarine warfare and Lusitania in cident. This is responsible for tho de lay in tho delivery of the German re ply, which is regarded by some as a hopeful sign that the cforts of tho diplomats on both sides will result in note which would be acceptable to both Germany and the United Stater. There is little tension now over tho incident that resulted in destruction nf American -lives on the Armenian, it having become known that she had sought to evade capture.
