Man's mastery of time and "pace, with which he dealt so Imagi natively and convincingly In "With tlio Night Mall," furnished the theme of nn nddress recently delivered by this most famous of living Knglls'i writers before the Ilojal Iteographlcal society. In tlio May number of Popular Mechanics Magazine ,Mr Kipling Is quoted as follews: "The time Is near when men will receive their normal Impressions ol a new country suddenly and In plan, not gradually and In perspective; when tlio most extreme distances will be brought within, the compass of ono week's travel; when tho word Inaccessible,' as applied to any given "Naturally, -o long as wo travel by sea, we must embark from a port mid look out for the landrails.

Then we shall hear the lost ports of New York and Uombhy howling like Tnrshlsh and Tyre. Incidentally, too, wo shall change all our mental pictures of travel.

After long years of .iege and conflict, the state's neutrality and independence were a-siitvd in ISH" hv the trealy of London. Upon this seeue Ihere has come forward, h. light of de scent, the slender, fragile figure of a fair maid of twenty ns defender and giiiirdian of the slule.

HOW GRANTS PASS RECEIVED ITS NAME (Glendale News) "Tho Grants Pass Courier recontlr asked if there was anyone who could give, any light regarding how Grants Pass received Its name. Tho News has made some inquiries regarding this, and Mrs. M. Elllf, a settler of '52, tolls us her version, which Is, no doubt, tho correal one- Mrs. Elllf, a young lady, then lived at which was then known as lien Halstcad's Ferry, across Roguo river, during 1853. liv ing at tho ferry, which -was located about two miles from tho present site of Grants Pass. This ferry was used for a number of years. Sho states than nn Englishman by the name of Croxton, bought the ferry and busi ness from Ben Ilalstcad, and settled down thcro about tho tlmo of tho civil war. Ho was a republican, as the now party was then called, and as the war progressed, becamo great ly Interested In tho career of U. S. Grant, who was In command of tho union armies near tho close of the war. To show his patriotism, he named tho postofflco and settlement Grants Pass, and ns such it became one of tho Important posts in South ern Oregon. Mrs. Elllf also said that when sho lived there thcro was no knowlcdgo of the exlstcnco of f8tich a man as Grant, though she had understood since .that Grant was onto on tho coast, but sho thinks It may havo only ieen a rumor. Tho facts are as stated above, however." To Europe Via Airship For several years jiat airmen have hopefully looked to "next year" ns the one in which the Atlantic ocean would be ero-sed in n vehicle of the air. Kaeii year lnu brought its disappointment; mid while the fent will undoubtedly be accomplish ed some day, it -ecms unlikely that 1UM will be able to credit that mile stone to its records. In some respects the event seems even farther off than three years ago. While exierieueed explorers are nt tiiis moment battling with untried routes in the Antarctic, none of them lias either a dirigible or aeroplane in his outfit. They hnvc nir-propcllcd sledges, but no air craft. To the layman the dirigible, al though slower in its movement than n plane vehicle, seemed the more likely to succeed; but the destruction of the Vnnimau and several Zeppe lins in mid-air lias made him -kep-ticnl. At pre-eut the only Mtituble gas for the purpo-e i hwlrogeu, the cxplo-ive dangers of which lire well known. It has even been quc-tioucd whether n dirigible iniiv not. under conditions of very' cold, dry air, by its own parage generate something in the nature of the iale blue flame sometimes -cm in cold weather on fast-moving belts. In wlreh cae a very siunll spark nnd n very minute gns leak would be ns efficiently dead ly us n thunderbolt. In ncroplaue-, cou-truction i failure. He -ay-: "Wo have come to the cud of our tether in dirigible balloons; they are n-ele and prac tically impoible. It i- nothing. Ie than mnduess to sacrifice any more lives and treasure in attempting what is manifestly an impossibility.'' Some day n vehicle will fly the gap; it may even he perfected in time to ipialify for the Sl.'iO.OOO prize of fered by the San Francisco exposi tion for nn a round-the-world flight. However, the day, predicted by Kip ling, when nir craft lauding inland will tnk'e New York as a port off the map may be considered as suffieient 1" remote to cnuso no immediate anx iety. II. II.

In all the present-day history of Kit rope it has no counterpart. Young, beautiful, one of the richest princesses in Europe, Mrs. Elllf Is mother of Mrs. J. E. Enyart of Mcdford.

The Mediterranean hns been spanned in flight; mountains with their great variety of atmospheric conditions have been crossed. However, ns yet no airman h.ts made n flight of 17D0 consecutive miles over wnter. To the iunoccnt bystander, who is not sun- posed to know anything about flying, it would seem sensible, though com monplace, for some one to fly his machine 1700 consecutive miles over somo inland water, like Ijike Erie, for example, befor ccasting off the dock lines on n trip aero-- the It g pond.

GUEEN TRADING STAMPS THE CHARM OF MOTHERHOOD Enhanced By Perfect Physi cal Health. The expcrlcnco of Motherhood is a try ing one to most women and marks dis tinctly nn epoch In their lives'. Not one woman In a hundred is prepared or un derstands how to properly care for her self. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach thu experi ence with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There Is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child-birth under the right conditions need bo no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainablo thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from en unprepared condition, and with am ple time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to tho trial. Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound, a most valuable tonic and invigorator of tho female organism. In many homes once childless thero are now children be cause of the fact that Lydia K. Pink ham's Vogotnblo Compound mnkot women normul, healthy and strong.
