OLast year it was nearly us bad until someone left a copy of the Gold Hill News In one of the mull iioxes and said paper contained a Shubert Fur Ad showing a coy ote with his foot In a trap.

If anioxeH Mich ns these eoulrinic, what tirea of roNtiecliiliility will I'uclo Sain have left ? , Cities like individuals, have traditions. They also have reputa tions. Certain things arc expected of them, and certain things are not. If it had been Mr. I'onzi of Manhattan, there would have been no slioekin' incongruity, for Uet-Kich-tuick-Wnlliiijifords, of foreign extraction, are expected along Broadway. If it -had been Miss Smith of Chicago or Kansas City, t lie front page would never have titillated. But vampires in Oklahoma, the stamping ground of train robbers, war dances, and wholesome barbarity. The thing isn't or wasn't done. And now comes dear old Mother Portland, the last refuge) of con servative propriety and prosaic rectitude. If it had been John K Elheridge of SanTrancisco, the (lay l'aree of the I'aeifie, or Seattle, where most of the exclusive dowagers are said to have graduated from Klondike music halls, the scandal might have been endured, but from 1'orlland, with a mansion on (he Kast Side, a country home on the Clackamas, a life tenure pew in Grace Memorial, not to mention all the clubs from Astabula lo Zcgora ! What,, in Heavens name, is this ball of dirt coming lo? ' Well- perhaps it is coming to a realization that reputations arc no more dependable than appearances. of latitude and longitude than vice. cnnlradiclions anil surprises. There them, and so much bad in the best to expect anything of anyone, anywhere, anytime. For ibis is an age of disillusion. The world is shaking herself into n new alignment anil the prudent course, is, for a time at least, to lake nothing on faith. No matter where the nickel comes from, bite it. No matter what the past may lead you to expect, keep an open and unhiased mind when you face the future. . " ' j ' For with Hackbay, the bucolic frontier and the Hose City, sub jects for the uplift squad, no district can heiicefortli be. considered immune. The result is devastating to our complacency, but' just now complacency appears to be a luxury no one should afford. .:.' So all in all good may be expected from this discovery of a skele ton in Mother Ilubbards cupboard. The air of self-righteous supe riority may become less oppressive along the banks of the AVillam i tie. Portland, no longer able to live on its reputation of.supcr-rc-speclability, may have a warmer sympathy with the black sheep of the coast and the,stiite. And that will be a good thing. For a stiff jolt in the amour propre is just as salutary for self-satisfied munici palities as individuals. And though we don't know just where that is we are' confident it is in that general 1'egion, that J'ortlantt Is at, pres-. cut effected. .. ... .- -i -; RippHngRhijiiiGs' 4k welt PLAYTIME. II'1 ONH is wise and Ihrii'ly throughout his youlh and prime, he may retire at fil'ly, and have a bully time. (Jul here I'm abiding the old-hoys come to play; I see them gayly riding along the pike all day. I see their nutos trundle- and cheer them as they pass; each old boy has his bundle, and can afford the gas. I count them by the dozen, these old boys come to play, whose gor geous boats go buzin' along the asliphalt way. They toiled and wrought like thunder in days of auld lung syne; they gathered in the plunder and put it down in brine; they pressed against their collars in busy days of yore, and earned the useful dollars and nailed them to the floor. And when their locks were gray ing, they had their store of wheels; they said, "It's time for play ing and kicking up our heels. For years we have been thrifty; no more we'll put up ice; declining years seem nifty, when old boys have the price." My blessings will pursue them as they go past, my door, but other old boys view them with spirits sad and sore; old boys who Kl ill arc slaving, to' earn the meagre kale, be cause they side-stepped saving when they were young and hale.

The bow els become weak and unable to perform their functions without aid. For this purpose only the mildest and gentlest laxative should be used. The use of harsh cathartics aggravates the trouble and makes the constipation worse. Chamberlain's Tablets arc a favorite with people of middle age and older on account of their gentle action.
