lOU and your farm wagon spend a
great deal of time together. Of all
your tools, it is your standby. 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. I H C Avagons

give the buyer the most he can get for his
money because they defy hard usage for the
longest time, and are easiest on the horses.
These are a few of the things that contribute
to the making of the unbeatable I H C wagon
reputation. Selection of the finest grades of
lumber, oak, hickory and pine, and of the best
quality steel and iron; many months of toughen
ing, air-drying of every piece of wood; skilled
assembling of parts, fitting of bolts and rivets,
and perfect shaping and ironing; application
of the purest paint to act as wood preserva
tive and to prevent shrinking and warping of
the wood. In the construction, the wagon
undergoes many careful inspections by experts
who test every part and verify each operation
so that when the wagon is ready for the farmer,
it is practically perfect in every detail and
thoroughly up to the I H C standard.

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. Larson.
THANKSGIVING APPEAL
FOR THE CHILDREf
Jt is sincerely Hoped that every
person having the welfare of th
Boys' and Girls' Aid Society at heart
will not fail to lemember them thi
year. 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. That these child
ren committed from 21 different coun
ties in the state as follows: Baket
Benton, Clackamas, Clatsop, Colum
hia, Coos, Crock. Dounlas, Jackson
Josephine, Klamath, Lane. 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.
Therefore, one cannot donate any
thins for a better cause than the work
of this institution. Their needs are
everything' that can be used in a
household, canned goods, groueries of
all sinds, especially sugar, proviRions
vegetables and fruit of all kinds
The railroad, etesmkoat and express
companies ruming into Portland have
recognized the importance of this
Institntion sufficiently to deadhead
all donations shipped to it if properly
boxed and plainly marked, THE
BOYS' AND GIRLS' AID SOCIETY
OP OREGON. Portland, Oreoen.
The resoles of the work of this In
stitntion can now ba seen in many
parts of the state. Many of the
children have now grown into man
and womanhood, many are happily
married, and 60 percent of the cases
have turned out good aud law abiding
citizens. Therefoio, help the good
canse along.
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.
