president of tho Greater Medford
club.
Mr. Morris J. Duryca, mansger of
tho publicity department of the
Kugcno Commercial club, spoke
to tho ladles for a few mo
tncnts upon tho University of
Oregon. Tho papers by Mrs. Gore
and Miss Santeo wcro brief and very
much to tho point, factors which arc
appreciated in club work. Anions
tho principal thoughts la Mrs Core's
article were the development of the
school curriculum, music n science
as well as an art and therefore, to bo
taught on scientific principles, the
bringing of tho school In touch with
(ho life of tho child and tho iill-lm
portnnt question, "Do tvo want music
n tho schools?'
That tlvo essential tralta of char
acter may be aided In their develop
ment by the study of music was tho
Fist of Miss Santeo's argument, those
requisites being alertness, punctual
10, concentration, person erance and
patience. Thp Idea la n Reed one
and obvious upon observation. Tho

many nuj varied, the work promis
ing a rich field of endeavor to those
Interested.

T. Galloway, netlnp secretary of tho
department or ngrluulturo nt Wash
lugtou, 1). C has written to olio of
tho large shipping concerns of Hood
ttler tho following letter In itnawor
to one risking If It was not possible
to pass legislation tu prevent com
mUMon uum In tho oast from throw
ing fruit consigned to them on tho
Miction market, busing it themselves
and selling It At u big roflt to them
selves and Una to tho shipper. The
following reply wnHjecolved:
"I would sny that under existing
conditions, shippers could onl. pro
tuet thnmselVQM nysilnat such a prac
tice as this by bolus represented in
tho market by thtdr own agents
with authority to sell olther at auc
tion or prlvnto sale, as the market
would appear to favor at tho time
"It J In this way that the Cali
fornia fruitgrowers hmo sohod thU
same question. Of course, this In
volves tho perfecting of a largo" co
operative maTketlug organisation
that can afford to maintain compe
tent representation In tho Important
markets, so that the producers aio
actually In control of their product
until It la actually disposed of to the
retail trude.
"Of course, If agents selling con
signed produce were prohibited by
statute from dealing In produce on
their own nceouut, one troublesome
feature reforred to would probably
be avoided and the consignee's temp
tation to speculate In the produce
entrusted to him would be removed.
It does not, hnwover, appear like!)
that any legislation can ltuuro the
handling of tho produce of n distant
shipper effectively and honestly In
any automatic way. Tho Interests of
tho shipper and (ho agent nro not
sufficiently alike to accomplish this,
and oxporlence appears to fully es
tablish tho fact that shippers from
points romoto from markets must or
ganize sufficiently to provide nde-
qnato nttcntlon to (heir Interest In

"Ileal America In Hnmancc," by Ed
win Mftrkham. Pub. by Wlso & Co.
Edwin Markham, realizing that
patriotism Is a sentiment that Is fait
dying out In America, conceived tho
idea of writing tko history of this
country In tho form that would make
faclnutlng reading and at the samo
time would mako tho heroes so llfo
)ko as to inspire tho reader with
their brave deeds, thus arising the
intcrcfat and patriotism that the
chronicles of dry school book history
oanaot do. "Ileal America in Ro
mance" is tho result. Tho work em
braces 13 volume, starting at the
birth of Columbus In 143& and bring
ing us up to the present time, not an
ovent Is omitted, and all the char
acters aro depleted, In an Intimate,
jtersonal way Thero are 3100 Il
lustrations In tho books, C00 being
copies i from masterpieces. All the
portraits, birthplaces, burial places
of great men and r-amen are given.
All. battlefields, forts and nioiiu
mcf(ta , are pictured. Theso books
wcro yrlUen especially for tho now
generation. Tho fictitious characters,
employed to glvo a connecting thread
to real events, mako tho story of
America of real exciting interest to
the yonthful reader and presents tho
Usually dry study of history In n most
enchanting form.
There has probably been no other
history of America so completely and
boautlfully written as this ono by
Edwin MaHkbam. ,

I'dldn t know they did It any moro

bumpy with misunderstandings that
could fa easily bo explained away if
the author would only glvo the hero

thiough chapter after chapter and
then tho book ends as beautifully as
tjia lasf bcoiio In u moving picture.
"Poucert Pitch" Is as full of toars
und lovers' quarulls us "East Lynnc."
Here s tho outllno of tho story.
Ueecn' It sound' as If poor Lady
lthl land Sir Archibald hud wun
doriMl back from tho ten cent novels
of long ago Into tho ?1.D0 editions
of tho. month's best sellers?
Manuka; Wagtier was tho dnugh
tr of a mllUoualre) Sir Herbert
Wagner, a man -with a newly ac
quired title, chronic Indigestion and
an exacting domineering second wife.
Lady Wagner was a climber and
when sho had got as far up on tho
social ladder as her wealth could
carry her. sho thought she could aid
her ascent by marrying Manuella, her
Btep-daughtor, into somo poor but
noble family. So very much against
tho 17-year-old Manucllu's wishes,
tho girl was taken otit of tho Euro
pean school which sho was attending
and launched Into society.
Lady Sallust, a friend of Lady
Wagner, had a nephow, Lord Lys
tons, whom she wished to marry to
the Wagner millions. Lord Lyssons,
not knowing tho girl whom his, aunt
wished, him to wed, declined to of,fer
his title and hand so left for tho con
tinent. However., as he crossed back
to England bp happened to bo on thoj
same boat with Manuella. Having
no idea, whatever, that sho was tho
girl his mint had, selected for bis
wife, he took a sudden liking tp her. I
Tho noit tlmo ho met her was at a
party given in honor of her newly .
announced ongagoment to Lord Cal
Ingtord, a dissolute impoverished1
man, much older than his Intended
bride. 'Lord Lyssons understood that
tho girl had, bepn forced Into this
match and his sympathy went out to
her. Before the wedding took place,
however, a letter from Lord Callng
ford's mistress caused Manuella to
break her engagement with him. 'Lord
Lyssons canio forward with a genuine
lovo and was eagerly accoptcd by tho
family and reluctantly by Manuella.
In tho meantime Manuella had met a
musical genius, Harston Magottl, who
with Bohemian bad taste and a mu
sician's ardor raado violent lovo to the
girl.
Manuella felt that Lord Lyssons
was marrying her for her money, sho
really loved him, but her suspicions
against him woro strengthened by tho
lomarka of her stop-mothor. Aftor
a foolish misunderstanding, rather
than let him know that sho loved
him, sho elopod with Mugottl, The
best part of tho book Is whero her
llfo us tho wife of a genius is de
scribed, Sho found out shortly after
her marrlago that sho did not love
her husband at all. That ho was not
llko other men and thut his gift us a
composer was the chlof concern. Even
bis .friends had no sympathy for her
In her poverty and miserable life,
Sho cooked, sowed, tolled, day aftor
day with no compensation, Even
when her child was born sho wan
ilcglcctod and uulpved. Finally her
husband cloned with nn onrra alneor
Lord Lyssons appeared on the scene'
again about this time but his friend
ship and love for Manuella was met
with tho same old misunderstandings.
Magottl produced an opera In Italy
with great success. His mIMrcss was
the prima donna and aa tho two were
bowing before tho footlights In nil
the glory of their success, tho hus
band of tho prima donna shot .Magot
tl. After this tragic clearance of n
superfluous husband from tho plot.
Lord Lyssons married Manuella. Her
family who had cut her oft when sho
had eloped with tho musician, offered
their forglvouess. When tho boenmo

that instead of "The End" bolng
written on thn last page, It should

Censorship."

Tho Mission of tlio Toastor Stovo
Fresh, crisp, golcloiirbrown toast! Does it not convoy
n ple.'isini,' suggestion to tlio palato? Is there auv othoV
t'orni in wliich bread is served that will equal it 7 Is thoro
anything that gives as niiu'h tone to any meal, for toast
appears in so many forms and has become tho necessary
accompaniment of so many delirious dishes, wo could
hardly do wlthoiit it. To make toast ill the dining room
on iho table so that it can be served fresh and crisp is my
mission.
.My name is electric toaster-stove. I might bo lahon
for a five-pound candy box, if I were not made of motal,
finished in highly polished nickel and did not have four
logs and a mouth. My place is right on tho breakfast
tahlo close to tho lady of the house. A warm friendship
soon grows up between us all from the time I niako my
first appearance at, the table my position is assured. Shu
takes prido in having the meal served in its best form and
when she discovers how well I prepare tho important
pari for which I am responsible and how little of her atten
tion J require, she finds me indispensable. She likes to
haVo mo on the table, because it is as great a pleasure for
her to servo tho good, hoi toast that 1 make, as it is I'm'
other members of tho family to eat it.
My important feature my reason for existence is
my electric heating element. This is just a serlon of
molal strips that give off heat when tho cuiTont- flows.
The lady puts a cord from an electric outlet into my mouth
and before sho knows it, j'm hot just hot enough to
make perfect toast.
