This edition of the Globe has
been printed in our new offices in
the Condon National Bank BMsr
Movinsr a Drintshoo is no small
job and consequently our news
columns have suffered a consid
erable loss of reading matter,
which fact we hope our subscnb
ers will overlook in the expecta
tion of more and better reading
matter in the future. In the
past we have been burdened with
a lack of roo:n for our office,
presses, type, etc., but in our
Dresent Quarters we have plenty
of each and are also nearer the
business district with a better
chance to Dick ud the news, and
we intend taking advantage of
all the opportunities knocking at
our door offering us the chance
ta give the people of Condon and
Gilliam County the best news
paper they ever knew

Kegan Paul in his reminis
cence speaks in one case of his
biahon as "an astute and insincere
man," giving this. instance of his in
sincerity: At a meeting of the cler
gy at Clapham his chaplain told him
that old Dr Blank, who had been
many years in the diocese, as
vexed at havin? been foreotten.
"Yea." said the bishoD. "I have not
, the smallest recollection of him, but
I will make it all right and will go
and speak to him. Which is her"
made his wavio him. "Mv dear Dr.
Blank, I have not had a moment for
real conversation with you. I need
not ask vou how vou are after all
these years. Do you still ride your
gray mare?" "Yes, my lord. How
good of you to rememDer neri etc
The chaDlain. who was within ear
shot, said when he again came near
the bishop, "Then you did remem
ber Dr. Blank after all?" "Not a
bit of it," said the bishop. "I saw
the prav hairs on his coat, and I
'
chanced the sex.
Leeds Pottery.
Leeds is probably the most cos
mnnolitan center of industry in all
Kngland, that of pottery being the
most ancient. Thia industry rose to
some eminence at one period, both
in regard to domestic and ornamen
tal ware of the white filigree order,
bnt now the onlv branch which re
mains is that of artistic majolica, In
which we find real works of art in
the choicest of designs and color
ing. Such productions, worthy of
special note, are the flower rases
and pedestals for the same, small
vases and other ornaments, and it ia
doubtful if either the Moors, who
founded thia industry, or the Ital
ians, who developed it, produced
anything superior to the modern
pottery from Leeds. Consular Re

Ready Exam ole.
The school managers were nres
ent all of 'em and the teacher
trna anxious that her scholars should
do well. She picked upon Tommy
n a the most likelv to do her credit.
' Tommy's knees showed through his
trousers, and because the managers
were present Tommy sat with a
- . hand on each knee.
"Tommy," said the teacher, "will
". 'you please give me" the teacher
" was alwavs nolite when the man
agers were present "will you please
give me a sentence wun tne wora
'toward' in it ?"
Then Tommv rose and in a erace-
ful attitude, with a thumb on each
knee, answered:
"Please. i?achcr. I toward my
trowsis." Tendon Answers.
Cleverer Than He.
The confirmed bachelor came
back to the club lunch from the end
of the earth, and we all asked him
if he was married (he is nearly fif
ty). "I shnll marry a clever vo
man if I do," he replied grimly.
"Thought you didn't like those clev
er women," said the youngest mem
ber simply. "I don't," ad tha
bachelor, whose views are well
known and widely spread. . "But if
ever I marry it'll be an infernally
clever woman who docs it." Lon

A watchmaker had lately brought

Sometimes there are brought in
to jewelers nne old ana once vai

to offer the old watcn at some price
in exchange, but it is of no value
except for the weight of the metal
contained in its cases. r.verv jew

of such old works, which are of no
value whatever, except that at long
intervals tnere may be iouna among
them a wheel or a part that may
serve in aome other old time watch
brought in for renair.
So watches oo wear out, ana as io
the life of a watch, a ieweler said.
a good average watch with fair care
ought to wear from thirty to iorty
years and a fine watch fifty years;
it mieht last seventv-five. but fifty
years would probably be nearer the

It may be thought tbat a superior
watch would last longer than that,

A moment of silence.
"Yes; George has hia watch with

"Then ask him what is the time.
"Tie sava it Is 11 :48. napa."
"Then ask him if he doesn't think

Another moment of silence.

A GOOD POSITION
Can be had by ambitious young
men and ladien in the field of
"Wireless" or Railway Teleg
raphy. Since the eight-hour law
became effective, and since the
Wireless companies are estab
lishing stations throughout the
country, there is a shortage of
telegraphers. Positions pay be
ginner3 from $70 to 190 per
month, with good chance of ad
vancement. The National Tel
egraph Institute of Portland, Or
egon, operates six official insti
tutions n America, under super
vision of R. R. and Wirele3 Offi
cials and places all graduates into
positions. It will pay you to
write them for full details.
