OlTHENA. ORE.. APRIL 30 191S
The Stsofleia Standard, O. D. Teel
and o I hers do not believe tbe West
end of the county will Ret its just
abate of tbe money raised from hood
ing tbe oouuty for toad improvement.
Teel advooates tbe formation of bis
part of tbe oonnty ioto a road distrlot
to bnild a road from Echo to Uma
tilla. . Ibe Standard says it Is deter
mined tbat tbe road shall be bnilt
whether tbe support of tbe Umatilla
County Good Roads Association is
eliin or not. This wonld Indloste
tbat the West End Is to bave tbe road
for tare, wbiab la muob farther along
in tbe making tban other prospective
roads. Tbe Standard baa a real grooob
and among other tbinga its editor, S.
Norton Bobo, says, after registering a
kiok at the Connty Court:
"We do not like tbis man Waterman
who is representing oa at tbe count j
oonrt, and we feel that be is Inoom
petent and baa dona nothing for this
district. Wa should like to bare Mr.
Waterman's resignation. Wa want
oor four town road bard snrfaood from
Umatilla to Eobo and suitably graded
and aoifaoed from Echo to Pendleton.
' Eight now we want a steam roller in
tbis end of tbe oonnty and something
dona to lave too few rapidly 'disinte
grating roads w blob we bave. Aluo
wa should like to bave tbe exeootlve
committee of the Umatilla Connty
Good Bonds Association tell os jnet
where tbey stand in tbe matter ot
good roads for the west end and wbe-
' tber tbey telieve that we are entitled
to one quarter of whatever amonut is
raised by bonding the oonnty as a
whole."
"Ibe wieatb of oigsielte smoke,"
toys Bodson Maxim, "wbiob onrls
abont the bead of tbe growing lad,
holds bis brain in an lion grip wbiob
prevents It from growing and bis mind
. from developing, jnsf as anrely as tbe
iron shoe does tbe foot of tbe Chinese
rlil. In tbe lenitle struggle for snr
wioi against tbe deadly cigarette
emote, development and growth aie
aaoiifloed by natnre, wbiob in the
light for veiy life itself, mnst yield
up eveiy vltul luxury, suoh ta healthy
body growth aud giowth of brain and
mind. II all boya conld be made to

ette smote tbey inhale imbeoility aud
exhale manhood; tbat they are tap

and that the cigarette la a maker ot

Two 8-baggers, double and two

SHORT LIFE OF BIG GUNS.
Every Time a Rifle la Fired Some of
Ita Boro Is Worn Away.
The Y.U' f the gun, so far aa its ab
solute destruction by bursting; la con
cerncd. I. practically unlimited, but
not so its uceurncy life. Every time a
gun is fired some of the interior sur
face of its bore and delicate rifling are
wiped away, and n certain degree of
its accuracy is lost
This Is true of tbe shoulder fide,
with Its bore so small tbat It would
not much more tlinn admit a lend pen
ell, no leas than of the great sixteen
Inch siege gun and the other grades of
artillery pieces.
Fortunately for the infantryman, the
wear on tbe boro of the shoulder rlflo
is much slower, as tbe wearing out of
the boro decreases rapidly with n de
crease in tbe Bizo of the bore. Era
slon, us it is called by tbe artillerymen,
is greatest In the large guns and least
in tbe 30 rifle.
The big guns which form tire mnln
batteries of our ivarsbips and are em-
placed in our coast fortifications can
fire from 150 to 2DO rounds (dependent
upon the pressure and heat In tbe povr
der chamber) before they begin to lose
their accuracy. Scientific American.
I
Doors In China.
In China doors ore often round, leaf
shaped or semicircular. In placing
them tbe builder usually avoids having
one opposite another lest evil spirits
find tbelr way from tbe street into tbq
recesses of tbe building. Tbe door
ways separating the courts of a gar
den are usually of an elaborate kind,
and the octagonal form is one of tbe
most popular. Religious superstition
asserts Itself In Chinese architecture,
and the universal sacredness of tbe
numerals 8 and 0 is shown In the ar
rangement of temple doors. There is
a triple gateway to each of the balls
of the Imperial palace, and, tbe same
order prevails at tho Ming tombs. The
Temple of Heaven bas n triple roof, a
triple marble staircase, and all Its mys
tic symbolism points either to 8 or its
multiples.
Tho Yaws.
On tbe west coast of Africa the na
tives call the raspberry a yaw. It hap
pens that one of tbe pleasing diseases
tbat come out from tbut quarter of tbe
globe Is characterized by dusky red
spots tbat appear on tbe body and soon
grow luto ulcers about tho size and
looks of tbe raspberry. So this disease
is called the yaws. It is contagious
aud downright disagreeable. White
sailors bring It buck with them to tbelr
own discomfort nud the disgust of
those at home. Yaws prevails also in
the FIJI islands mid Iu Samoa, but Iu
these two places children mainly are
attacked, and the natives regard tbe
disease in the Kirne light as civilized
persons look nt measles almost a cer
tainty to bare mid the sooner over
with the better.
