Weston, convicted three times of tlio murder of K. II. Kruir, is not as difficult to uiiderstaml us his refusal to explain his action. If, as the governor declares, he is convinced of Weston's innocence, then to pardon him is quite proper uud altogether commendable. J Jut to dismiss the matter with this brief statement and to refuse to take thu people of the state into Ids confidence regard ing the circumstances which led to this momentous action, is under the circumstances altogether inexplicable Weston was convicted three times, twice in Deschutes county end once in Wasco county. From the latter conviction, Wefcton's attorneys did not even appeal. The case appeared to be over. No one pursued the matter further except the wife of the convicted man who, it. seems, kept the case before tho governor with n praiseworthy persistence. Then suddenly, without n word of warning or explanation, this thrice convicted murderer was set free last night, with a full pardon, and allowed to go his way, rejoicing and unmolested. , Needless to say, Mrs. Weston must have given Governor Pierce some startling and supremely important information. It must be information which was not given the three juries thut voted for conviction. Also, needless to say, the people of the state, in whom the governor has such supreme confidence, ar.e entitled to know pre cisely what this information is. To persist in silence will subject Governor Pierce to suspicion and critifisjn which he can ill afford, and yet for which ho will have 'only himself to blame. ' No one wishes an' innocent person to suffer. The governor's pardoning power is given for this very reason. But it is a power which should be exercised with the greatest discretion, and only under circumstances which remove all reasonable doubt of its justification. To exercise this power and then refuse to give the circum stances justifying it, is, to say the least, an unprecedented proceed ing. Governor Pierce should lay all his cards rcgardiugthe cuse on the table, not at some future time, but now. QUILL !oy, paw ui'ouml in the silence Interference helps lo make matrimony. .

Tho question of exercise for sick folkH iH very different. Putting it plainly, I nhoutd say that sick people, even though they are moderately Hick, should not tako any exercise whatso ever, not oven a short stroll, unless this Is ndvised ly the attending phyAi elan. Carrying the question still fur ther, T consider the invalid or seml Invalld, who indulges in exercise not sanctioned or upproved by his physi cian ,a reckless person Indeed. listen to this authoritative declar ation from Dr. Gorard 11.

I know the lay reader will not grasp the full significance of Dr. Webb's words. ,( Hpeclal .technical knowledge is necessary to enable one to understand the value of rest, just as technical training is necessary to an understanding of the principles of surgical, medical or sanltat asepsis. Rest may be general, partial or complete local, physiological, postural, functional, surgical, physical, mental, periodic or continuous, and the'inest skill and knowledge of the physician can bring to bear nro required to gain for the patient all the therapeutic ad vantages of rest. , The lungs move more than a thou sand times an hour.

Tobenkin believes that in a few years the Jewish questions here will have disappeared. As the second nnd third genera t ions of AmerlennUed Jews come up, ho thinks, they will be lndlntiuguishnble from other Ameri cans. Many of tho old ritualistic practices which have been largely ln ftueiittul in keeping tho Jews a sepa rate people will have been swept away by tho Influx of modern Ideas.

Tf you drink n pint of wnter you'll weight a pound more, for an hour or two. Tint if you want to get rid of superfluous flesh I should advise you to drink water very freely, at least three or four pints n day, and walk- about six miles every day, never omitting the walk on account of the weather. ' Sanitary Itcildlug. ( Tn it safe lo use mattresses and pil low which were used by a tuberculo sis patient, If they have been fumigat ed? (IT. M. A.) Answer. The fumigation' makes no particular difference. If the mattress and pillow were not'vlslbly soiled, it is perfectly pafe to use them: if they were visibly soiled. It would be advis able to have them renovated nnd steam sterilized. There Is no good reason to believe that tuberculosis is conveyed by clothing or by bed cloth ing. Vacuum Canning' Process. A number of us mothers would like to know what you mean by vacuum canned tomatoes, nnd how they dif fer from home canned. Do home canned (cold pack) tomatoes contain the nrteenary elements for babies? Are tomatoes canned in a steam pres sure ennper nil right for such use? (Mrs. K. O. E.) Answer. Oxidlatlon diminishes or destroys vitamins in foods, nnd In ord inary cooking or boiling of tomatoes or other foods for canning there is considerable oxidation. In tho pro cess employed In factories the cans are sealed after the air has been driv en out and replaced hy steam, so that In cooling a vacuum is formed in the can. This prevents oxidation. Fac tory canned tomatoes are therefore to be preferred to home canned toma toes when tomato juice Is used In tho feeding of the baby, to prevent scurvy. Tomato juice from fresh tomatoes or factory canned tomatoes is as efficient for this purpose as orange juice. The cold pack method does not -prevent oxfdntion, but aside from this one de tail, homo canned tomatoes nro as good as the store kind. Eyo Culture.

Asa general rule, don't lead trumps until you have established your long suit, unless your trump holding is so strong that you can lead trumps and still retain control. Such hands, how ever, play themselves and the difficulty usually arises when the trump strength is or may DC evenly aiviuca peiween the declarer and his opponents.

Z passed, A bid two spades, Y and B passed and bid two no-trump. A and Y passed, B bid three spades, 7. doubled nnd all passed. If Y opened the six of clubs, how should A plan the play of the combined-hands? A should figure Z with at least four spades to the king ;'ack. Z would not havrt been justified in bidding two no trump and doubling three spades with any less holding. He also should hold the king of hearts, the ace of diamonds and the king of clubs, It should be apparent, 'therefore, that A should not lead trumps. Z's trump holding is much stronger than his own and in addition, Hearts 6, 4 Clubs 0, 8, 7, 6, 5.2 Diamonds 10, 7, 6, 5 Spaces S Hearts Q, 9, 3 Clubs 10, 9, 4,3 Diamonds 8, 3 Spades Q, 7,4,3 Hearts Clubs K, J Diamonds A, J, 9, 2 Spades K, J, 9, 6 See what happens H A should lead the ace and a low spade after winning the first trick. The lesson to learn from this hand is not to lead trumps until you have established your long suit. Here's another hand that is an cx ' ample of good play that comes up fre quently enough to make a study of it well worth while.

Such hands as these offer manv difficul ties, even for the ejtrricnced players, so any analysis of such hands should be interesting and instructive. The hand published as a problem in the preceding article was of this type. It is as follows: Problem No. 8 Hearts A, J, 10, 7,2 Clubs A Diamonds K, Q, 4 Spades A, 10, 8, 2 YZ's club suit is established. For those very cogent reasons, A should establish his heart suit before he leads trumps. At trick two, therefore, A should lead a low heart from B's, tho dummy a hand. Z will be forced to win thiB trick and what can he lead. If he leads a club, A should trump in B's hand with the deuce of spades and lead a low spade through Z's hand. If.Z plays a low spade, A should play the queen and then lead hearts, forcing Z to trump. No matter how Z plays the hand, he cannot win more than two spade tricks, one heart trick and one diamond trick. The hands of all four players are as follows: 1 Hearts A, J, 10, 7, 1 Clubs A Diamonds K, Q, 4 Spades A, 10.8, 2 K ,8,5 Hearts A, K, Q,9 Clubs K, Q. 8,7 Diamonds A, 10, 9 Spades K, 10 No score, rubber game. Z dealt and bid one no-trump. A and Y passed and B bid two spades. Z bid two no-trump, A and Y passed and B bid three dia monds. Z now bid three hearts, A passed, Y bid three no-trump and all passed. A opened the six of clubs. How should Z figure out the cards held by his opponents, both from the bidding and the opening lead of the six of clubs? How should he plan the play of the hand so as to score three odd, game and rubber? Think it over carefully.
