In our opinion the

thing which may solve the rail

a rate increase, the railroads
should face the facts and fill
their trains and utilize their

low rates permanent. Back

Speaking of railroads those In fa

took over the Canadian National to
keep It from bankruptcy, the road

ed It competitor, the O. P. R from
making any.
There la now a definite move on
toot to consolidate the two systems,

As they sat now before the bon

The people looked old-faahloned.
but they were eo mtereeted In mak

"Did they start this bonfire?" John
asked
"They did." the Clock answered,
"and everyone In the neighborhood

"I told you that 1 hsd turned the

A visit to Canada confirms our con
viction that thl much advertised de

We don't deny there are fundamental
economic causes, but we do deny the
situation would be sa serious sa It la,
I', the people of this country a a
whole adopted a different attitude
toward It.
British Columbia, tor example, in
1U unemployment problem, and Its
economic distress, la In far worse
shape than the Pacific northwest.
Yet the mental attitude up there la
far better, there la far more opti
mism, more determination to' plug
along, not wall about things, and
conduct bualnesa s usual.
We hav no doubt that if the peo
ple here on the coast would talk
leas about hard times, and do more
to correct them, atop looking at the
hole In the doughnut and tend to
business, there would be a tremen.
dous Improvement all along the line.
Ic other words. It la our firm belief
that thlnga will get better the mo
ment a majority of the people adopt
a better a more courageous and a
aaner point of view. The mental at
tltude Isn't everything, but It la, we
believe, the most Important single
factor In the present situation.
Cold and cloudy In Portland, and
we received the first word that the
veterans' hospital goes to Roseburg.
As we wrote In our first letter from
Eugene, with everyone there admit'
ting Roseburg had won (though that
was a week before the official an'
nouncement) there waa no question
of the outcome.
Well, If Medford couldn't get It,
we are glad Roseburg did. Bhe origi
nated the Idea, worked harder than
any other district for It, and there.
fore deserved It. The unfortunate
feature la that there waa ever any
controversy over It. Unfortunate for
the state and particularly unfortunate
for Congressman Hawley.
For now there la no doubt what
ever that poor old Wlllla will lose
more votes outside of Douglas than
he will gain within that la unfair to
Mr. Hawley, but It Is human nature.
More than that. There la no doubt
whatever that, while Roseburg and
Douglas County will benefit greatly
by this government Institution, the
beneflta will not come up to present
popular expectatlona. They never do.
Aa a result there wUl be a reaction
even In Roseburg, which will not be
polltcally beneficial to Oregon's vet
eran congressman.
Congreseman Hawley stood by his
guns, kept his word to the letter; he
and he alone la responsible for Rose
burg's triumph. He deserves all the
oredlt but politically he won't get It.
The moment the hospital fight bo-
cumo a atate-wide battle, and the
original plan to award It to Roseburg
railed, Congressman Hawley euffered

WHAT DO YOU MB AN SATISFACTION
Goat's milk la pure white In color,
says a bulletin from a goat milk dairy
farm. If the milk Is properly handled
there will be no
unpleasant odor
or taste. T b i
may be verified
If the doctor will
trouble himself
to drive out to
the goat farm
and drink the
fluid to hie sat
isfaction.
Huh. Then
what are all the
poor little babies
to do fcr their nourishment? Trouble
yon say? Pray don't mention It.
Where's your farm?
Many families might readily keep
a milk doe and be assured a per
fectly fresh, pure raw milk supply
dally. It costs six or eight times
as much to feed a cow aa It does to
feed p. goat. Good quality milk does
may be bought for 926. Goat's milk
sells In various communities for from
35 cents a quart to 76 cents a quart.
Some families living in the suburbs
or in villages find that a goat can
maintain herself on pasturage or for
age at no cost or only trifling cost,
a good part of the year. If there are
babies or young children In the fam
ily, a milk goat la a great blessing
from the viewpoint of economy as
well as that of health.
Ooats are practically immune to
tuberculosis. That s one large factor
in favor of goat's milk fotT' infants
and children.
It Is difficult, to distinguish goat's
milk from cow's milk by taste alone.
Goat s milk perhaps tastes a trifle
"smoother.' A goat gives anywhere
from two to five quarts of milk a
day, some prize stock having given
much more than that.
Contrary to popular notions, a goat
refuses to eat unclear food. But a
goat does eat weeds and waste from
the garden, bushes and foliage that
cows will not eat and even sheep
pass by.
Goat's milk Is alkaline like human
milk. Cow's milk , is acid. In modi
fying milk for the feeding of an in
fant it is unnecessary to use lime
water or other diluent to neutralize
acidity If you use goat's milk.
Not only infants, but convalescent
and invalids with poor appetite and
poor digestion find in goat's milk in
ideal food. -
The fat of goat's milk does not
readily separate from the milk un
less heated.
Many Infants who do not seem to
thrive on cow's milk begin to gain
immediately when given goat's milk
instead.
A child seven or eight years old can
take entire care of a milk goat.
Goat meat Is sold in the markets
under the name of mutton and lamb,
and is delicious under any name

Nice Cool Shower.
Please advise if a dally morning
cold shower Is harmful or good for
the body? J. E. McO.
Answer If you enjoy It and feel
refreshed and invigorated after the
bath, it Is good for you. If you don't
like cold water on your nice warm
skin In the morning, try an air bath
instead.
Please tell me Is coffee and tea are
harmful to drink, and which is the
more harmful? Should children drink
coffee or tea? M. M. B.
Answer Coffee and tea In mod
eration are rather healthful for nor
mal adults; invalids should be guided
by the advice of their own physicians.
I believe children under 18 should not
take tea or coffee, and the less cocoa
the better. I . am unable to say
whether coffee or tea is the more
harmful when taken In excess or oy
a child.
Bread.
Is there any important difference,
In nutritive value, between baker's
bread and home-made bread? Mrs.
W. K.
N Answer No. One brand of baker's
bread is superior In nutritive value
because it provides vitamin D, unlike
the general run of baker's bread. -Silly

' Answer Don't be silly. Tell me
your age, height and weight, and ln
olose a stamped envelope bearing yonr

age the reduction buslnes, provided
I think you should reduce.
' Roaster Makers Please Notice.
I am & woman aged 40, and every
time I drink coffee It gives me In
digestion. I was advised to drink only
fresh roasted coffee. I tried it, and
it helped me. I would like to get
a small roaster and roast my own
coffee. Can you tell me where I can
get one? S. G.
Answer Any hardware or house
hold outfitter should have roasters.
Why not use an ordinary kitchen
roasting pan? I do not understand
why fresh roasted coffee should be
preferable to coffee roasted last week.

THE MOON'S INFLUENCE?
TJOBBY CRANSHAWS dinner
" waa a glittering success, per
haps the moat lavish thing In
the way ot favors and exclusive in
the way ot guest that Mrs. Cran-
shaw, addicted to lavlshment and
excluslveness, had attempted that
year.
' She had intended that the party
should repair to. the ball room up
stairs for an atter-dlnner dance,
but Bobby had become Involved in
promises with La Petite Theatre in
Vteits Oorre". Perhaps it was Just
as welL ;
The Easter season was so crowd
ed with dances that the musicians
never did themselves justice, and
Bhe herself was due at another af
fair before the evening was over.
Mrs. Cranshaw looked in on Bob
by's dinner as she went out, a
sumptuous figure in white velvet
and ermine cloak, Mr. Cranshaw
Just behind her. They came in
("Don't rise, my dears!"), speaking
to the marquesa particularly, and
to Juanita; making little general
greetings.
"Pretty girl, the Seflorita Fiores,"
said Mrs. Cranshaw as they rode
away. Mr. Cranshaw nodded. "But
the marquesa," be added, "is
frump. "Marquesas - can't be
frumps," Bald the lady.
The paperB had heralded the
Cranshaw dinner, and Molly had
apparently read them, for a new
dress awaited Juanlta's return.
There was no new dress tor the
marquesa, however, and no time for
her to select one.
'Kirk had delayed bringing them
Into town until almost the last mln-
ute. Juanita had not wavered in
her refusal to marry him on Thurs
day, and be felt more content with
her in BiloxL The Tljon was In
New Orleans, he reminded himself,
and the marquesa had announced
ber Intention of returning to it
with Juanita.
"No," said Nelly. "You are to go
to our bouse when you return. Pom.
pey and Sadie (Sadfe was Pom,
pey's wife) "have everything ready
for you." The marquesa had ex
pected to go there for the night.
but later
"Later,1' said Nelly, "you are to
come back here. How do you ex
pect me to stay without you?"
"You'll he going back yourself,
old dear," Kirk said. "You're near
ly well."
Nelly bad known nothing of
Kirk's plans tor an Immediate mar
riage, nor ot Juanlta's later refusal
to marry him at all.
Nelly would have opined that
Kirk, the host, had even less right
to Insist on marriage than be bad
to propose It.
But even Nelly could see that
the marquesa was determined to
end her visit with them in either
, place.
Juanita wondered. Was it be
cause the marquesa bad made such
a comedy of herself the night of
Adrian's dinner, or had Divitt or
dered her return?
The marquesa, Juanita knew.
kept In not Infrequent touch with
Divitt
On tbe evening of her return
from Caprice she had telephoned
him asking for her lorgnettes, mak
ing casual reference to their outing
in the yacht, to the presence of
Madame Foucbe and Adrian. . . .
Juanita could hear her without lis
tening. They could all hear 'her.
Singularly enough, the lorgnettes
bad never come.
Again, the sea wind had blown
into Juanlta's room one night a bit
ot paper and she bad picked it up
and read it, supposing it a note for
herself.
The Vords had made no sense.
Apparently it wa something in
code 'and unfinished. But it was
the marquesa's writing, and the
marquesa being out, Juanita bad
carried it back to tbe place from
which It probably had blown, tbe
marquesa's desk.
Next day the marquesa had put
the paper into an envelope and ad

The Incident had troubled Jua
nita somewhat Inevitably she had
suspected that the letter waa about
herself.
t Divitt was keeping a watch on
ber movements through tbe mar
quesa, and anybody could see what
was going on between herself and
Kirk.
Divitt did not intend that she
should marry and leave and perhaps
betray him. How easily she could
have married Kirk and escaped
both Divitt and tbe marqueea! Yet
Kirk himself had barred that way.
"What do you expect of a girl In
that place? . . . Tbey all have fan
tastic tales . . . Always unwilling.
When his kind eyes had looked at
her those nights In the. parlor, sus
taining her, he had been taking It
tor granted that she was a mere
woman ot the streets. ... A fan
tastic tale Indeed! . . .
He would listen kindly, if she
told It to him, imploring him to
believe. His eyes would be as kind
as they had been in Dlvitt's.
He might even affect to believe
her. . . . "What was she before she
went there?" he had asked. That
other thing she had bad to tell him.
How could sbe tell him now?j
How could she tell him anything?
The marquesa consented to spend'
the rest of Uu? week at the Stanard
home, but Monday she must return,
to the Tljon. Juanita was glad of
this firm decision, regretful only oti
tbe delay.
Kirk's importunities, silent and
spoken, were becoming more than
she could bear.
"You love this other man, Jua
nita," he had said, and Juanita had
not denied, permitting the mar
quesa's fiction to shelter her.
But Kirk on their last evening in
Blloxi had demanded a more defi
nite ' confirmation ot his words.
They had been sitting together on
the verandah, a little apart from
Nelly and the marquesa, Adrian
and his mother having returned
home.
"Is that it, Juanita?" Kirk had
asked. "You love him best, after
all?"
She had answered after a pause,
"Tbe past has Its hold on us."
"What sort of hold?" Kirk asked.
"Is it love?"
But she had said, "Don't ask me
any more."
After a time he told her, "You
aren't going on to California, as the
marquesa says. You are going back
to Spain."
And she had answered, truthfully
enough, "I don't know where I'm
going."
It had been useless for him to
say, as he had said next day In one
of tbeir brief Instants alone, "You
are not happy, Juanita. Even if you
won't marry me, let me do some
thinganythingto help you."
They bad Just ridden in from
Blloxi. The marquesa was scuttling
up tbe stair, following Pompey and
their bags.
In the dim ball Kirk bad caught
Juanlta's hand, holding her back.
She had smiled up at him, leaving
her hand in bis, knowing an in
stant's poignant bapplneBS.
"I am happy," she bad said with
brave, soft eyes; had turned from
him, following the marquesa to
their rooms.
And there on tbe bed had Iain
the new dress black tulle with a
line of red roses down the back,
black slippers and a little spangled
fan.
Juanita wore the dress that eve
ning, coming down the stair to find
Kirk waiting, tall In his evening
clothes, bis eyes troubled, yet light
ing at sight ot her.
The marquesa bad on tbe red
satin dress with the beaded red
cape she had worn at the Comus
ball. She seemed cross and rather
abstracted, yet alert whenever Kirk
spoke to Juanita, bowever casually.
as they rode to the Cranshaws'.
Perhaps, if the place cards were
kind, be would sit next to Juanita,
reflected Kirk, and surely tbey
would dance after dinner.
Juanlta's change, ot heart could
not last It had come too suddenly,
had taken place almost before his
eyes that night at Tarpon Point
Something had been said he could
not account for it
Moon ot Delight had started It

CUrfEt WITH IDEAL
FLAVOR PRODUCED BY
IMPROVED ROASTING
Patented Process Insures Per
fect Roast for Every Pound
of Hills Bros. Coffee
Roasting, as much as blend, is
responsible for the fine flavor of
coffee. In fact, ordinary bulk-roasting
methods often fail to give the
blend "a break." That's because
bulk methods don't always insure
an even roast. Hills Bros, invented
and patented a process that over
comes this undesirable feature. It
is called Controlled Boasting, for
control is the principle of the
process.
As the accuracy of the hour-glass
depends upon an even, continuous
flow ... a little at a time ... so a
perfect roast is procured for Hills
Bros. Coffee by this patented proc
ess that roasts evenly, continu
ously ... a little at a time. The
speed of the coffee through the
roasters is controlled. The tempera
ture is controlled. These two things
insure unvarying flavor for the
blend is never under-roasted nor
over-roasted.
Remember that Hills Bros. Coffe
can't go stale. It is packed in vac
uum cans. Air, which destroys the
flavor of coffee, is removed and kept
out of these cans. Ordinary, "air
tight" cans ivon't keep coffee fresh.
But Hills Bros. Coffee is always
fresh. Order some today. Ask for
it by name, and look for the Arab
trade-mark on the can.
