It3 . wheels roll along under big loads for you towering racks of hay and grain, sacks of produce over miles of roads to market, loads of sand and gravel, anything that needs moving. When next you ride on top of a load, listen to the constant racking, creaking, groaning sound of the wagon box and wheels, as the load pitches back and forth over the road ruts. It takes solid strength to stand up long under that.

CASE! traditions Regarding the Death Sir Cloudesley Shovel. Of the almost complete wreck of a squadron under Sir Cloudesley Shovel on the rocks of the Seilly isles, together with the death of its gallant commander, the greatest seaman of the age, a number of curious traditions are associated both with the events leading up to the catastrophe and the fate of the celebrated admiral. The outstanding feature of the catastrophe is the mystery of Shov el's death, which will probably never be solved, and the latter turns upon the admiral's emerald ring. One stpry goes that the body was picked up on the shore by a soldier and his wife and buried by them on Porth Hellick sands. A spot is still shown at Porth Hellick as being the burial place of the admiral, and, accord ing to tradition, grass has never grown upon it. Subsequently the identity of the corpse was discover ed. The remains were exhumed and conveyed to London via' Plym outh, where they were embalmed. Lady Shovel rewarded the soldier with a pension for life and received from him the ring found on her husband's finger. Another story is that Paxton, the purser of the Arundel, discovered two St. Mary men quarreling over the possession of a ring, lie at once recognized it as Shovel's ring and inquired from which body it had been taken, and when that was found he knew and claimed the body. Lastly, there is the startling narrative of foul play viz, that many years after the wreck an aged woman confessed to the parish min ister on her deathbed that, exhaust ed with fatigue, one man who had been washed ashore on a hatch reached her hut and that she had murdered him to secure the valu able property on his person. She then produced a splendid emerald ring taken from the finger of her victim and identified as the gift of Lord Berkeley to Shovel. The responsibility for this story rests upon the admiral's grandson, the Earl of llomney. Modern re search reports rather in favor of tne murder tneory. J. Jig ring was eventually recovered, and altered into the form of a locket and set with diamonds it is a precious relic of the BerKeley family. The theory as to how it passed into the possession of the family of the original donor is that Lady Shovel received it from the mur deress, as stated, and bequeathed it at her death to Lord Berkeley. Sev eral old works of reference contain the baseless story that Lady Shovel was aboard the Association and was drowned along with her husband. By the way, her ladyship's ghost is supposed to walk at midnight in the avenue of May place, Dart ford, Kent, once the home of the Shov els. London Globe. To improve yourself the first es sential is to prevent all waste of energy by living in poise. The sec ond essential is to use your imagina tion in picturing those things that you want to accomplish now. And the most practical use that can be made of the imagination is to pic ture your talents and faculties larger, greater and more perfect. To imagine in mind a larger and more perfect talent is to give the creative forces in mind a better model, and as these forces always create after the fashion of the latest model they will consequently create the larger and the more perfect tnlent.

This Society is oaring for all the dependent and neglected children in the state who may be committed to it by the proper authorities Theii booklet is descriDtive of some of the work they Jiave accomplished daring the past year, showing that they have passed 436 children through the receiving Home at Portland dur ing the past year.

Linn Malheor, Marion, Mnltnomah. Polk, Umatilla, Wasco, and Yamhill. Another grand thing which the Society accomplishes is the Investi gation of complaiots of abuse and npglect among children and they will quickly have an agent on the soot and what otherwise would be nobody's business they make the business of this noble institution, and if there is merit in the complaint they see that the matter is brought before the proper authorities and the children made such disposition of as may be foi their best interests.

Think It Over. It is affirmed that you are what you think you are. If yon think yon are what yon think yoD are you will naturally be lieve and think that you really think what yon are. But if yon only think what you are in troth, yon are more than likely to think and believe that you only think you think what sou are. If you think you are what yon are not, then what yon think is not what you are, and what you are, is not what von think, and what von art) is what vou think you are not, but what yon think yon are. What yon think you are is not what vcu think, you think yon think you are, while as a matter of cold hard fact, you are what you are and not at all what you think you think you are. So, if you truly want to be what vou think von are. be sure and think only that you are just what you are, athrer than what you minK. And then it must follow that if ;on think you aro what you are, yon ire what too think you are.
