FIRE WITH FIRE.
A subscriber thinks tbe following
worthy of a place in-the columns ol
the Democrat, a case of meeting tire
with fire:
"The boy was a fire fiend, fascinated
by the play of flames, probably a
"throwback" from Pagan times, when
half the world paid adoration to the
dread and mysterious gift of Prome
theus. He loved "to see things burn"
and, unable to control his passion, be
came an incendiary. The law took
him in hand. He was tried, convicted
and remanded for sentence. A Psy
,-chologist one of the men who study
the queer twists in human nature be
came interested in the case and sug
gested that " a hair of the dog that bit
him" might cure the trouble. Instead
of making a convict out of an other
wise orderly youngster they made him
a fireman set him to work stokin,
furnaces provided an occupation that
diverted an uncontrollable impulse to
a useful purpose. ,
"Applying vocation to temperament
promises to be one of the most impor
tant activities of the future. As we
grow to understand ourselves the so
cial machine will develop fewer acci
dents and breakdowns. Slipping cogs
can be handled loose belts tightened
it's all a matter of care and study.
There's a practical use for every being
if we can. find how to adjust him' to
utility."
WHAT ALCOHOL DOES.
In the July American Magazine is
an- article entitled, "Can You Drink
and Hold Your Job?" by Dr. Edwin F.
Bowers, who says:
"American medical directors i of
- three great life insurance companies
estimate that from 7 to 43 per cent oi
accidents are due, either directly or
indirectly, to alcohol. Seven per cent
of railway accidents, 8 per cent, of
street car accidents, 10 per cent of au
tomobile accidents, 8 per cent of those
due to vehicles and horses, 43 per cent
of heat prostrations and sunstrokes, 7
per cent of machinery accidents, 8 pci
cent of all accidents in mines and
quarries, 13 per cent of drownings, and
10 per cent of gunshot wounds, are
sustained, either in whole or in part,
because of alcohol. ,
"The widespread use of alcoholic
beverages has been conservatively es
timated as causing the loss of 21 per
cent in the efficiency of the nation's
workers. The production of wealth is
reckoned at about thirty-two billion
dollars; the loss due to deficiency (or
diminished efficiency) in round num
bers is therefore fully eight and one-
- half billion dollars."
; IF WAR LASTS.
A French financier has figured it out
that if the European war lasts another
year it will cost a grand total of $100,
000,000,000. At 5 per cent the interest
on this would be $5,000,000,000 a year,'
or a sura equal to one-half the value
of the total annual crops of the United
States. In other words the farmers of
this county could just pay the interest
with half their crops yearly. It would
take all the crops of all kinds grown
in the United States for ten years to
pay the debt without interest, and
with 5 per cent interest added it would
take about 16 years. Ex.
PASS THEM ALONG.
"Pass on the good things, the happy
experiences that come to you never
- the unfortunate things. By the time
we have come to realize our debt of
. gratitude, too often our benefactor has
- passed away and we cannot repay him.
, But let us do as he did pass along all
the good we can to others." J. M.
Long in Farm and Fireside.

MISFITS
A reader at Chautauqua gave the
scene from Quo Vadis, where the
giant mastered the bull, breaking his
neck. At Philomath Buffalo Verdon,
in a few seconds, threw a big black
steer, and spit in his face.
The modern bowboy could- show the
old gladiators some things that would
make their eyes bug out, . . 1
By the way, these round-ups, in
few years promise to be as common as
automobiles.
A mile gain in the war scents to be
something great. But where wU it all
end, that s the rub.
When is one side going to yell
"enough?" That's what we're inter
ested In.
Every Chaut. Albany people learn
something new, particularly those who
sweat blood to make a success of it
One thing is that as an independent
Chautauqua it may be a good thing to
break loose from the attractions
shown all around us and go it alone.
.icrhaps a difficult thing to do.
Hot Stuff.
Salem Capital Journal:
Tall Timothy Geer, who was gover
nor of Oregon once upon a time to
he intense dissatisfaction of his con
stituents, is out in a communication to
the" Oregonian demanding war with
Mexico. He would shoot real bullets
instead of notes. Dean Collins, an
empty-headed scribbler, whose poeti
cal efforts constitute about the worst
conceivable outrage upon the public.
contributes to the same issue a de
mand for a surge of blood to purge
the stain from the sands of Carrizal."
Great Opportunity.
To the Editor: I am known as a
widow twice of Virginia, have four
children, two small, and two of school
ige, am looking for a husband. I can
live on the place and take care of
things alone. Would like to hear from
men who are not over forty years of
age, single men that have no children,
that have farmed and would be willing
to live on a farm and take interest in
the place and help as a life companion.
Call and sec me before cropping time.
One with horses preferred, as I have
none. I have all except horses and a
true husband. Downey (Idaho) Ida

A Contrast.
A barefoot boy,
A white birch pole;
' A can of worms,
A swimmin' hole.
A baited hook,
A tug and sw'sh;
A steady haul,
A string of fish.
A white duck suit,
A-cnnvas bor.t;
A costly rod,
A patent float.
' A gaudy fly,
A cast and swish;
A pretty sight, -
But nary a fish.
