A couple of citizens are At logger heads, and are thinking of getting at lawyerheads. The Harrlaburg correspondent of the Eugene News, reports that a milk cow belonging to one Royal Douglas, was killed last Friday by a southern Pacific train.

Accounts of the Walla Walla, prison riot state, "the only reason- the In mates had for their action was a de sire for freedom." This sounds plaus ible, as ever so often the press chron icles the hectlo and bloody efforts of convicts to get out. It Is also noted, i "At Christmas time inmates had for the first time tn 10 years, an all- convict minstrel and vaudeville show." There la Just a possibility that the desperadoes, besides freedom, desired to escape the next penitenti ary talent minstrel show. SENATORIAL WIHKCH ACKINC1 (Cong.

I weighed 06 pounds when I ryry-y.-'ri-i'ik Started- Well, anyway, there Is always hope when they run over 05 pounds I gained eight pounds. Then I stopped the treat ment because too much of the added weight ac cumulated on my abdomen. On Is right. Now that nudism has become an Issue, says ol Doc Brady, the outlook la favorable tor the admission of Belly to good English.' Belly Is the ante rior front wall of the abdomen, and that Is precisely where the bulk of the fat accumulates In a corpu lent person. My husband, continues the corres- j pondent, also ginned weight under In sulin treatment. He weighed only 135 pounds whan he hpan treatment. He Is B feet, 11 Inches tall. He gained 26 pounds In 28 days. Our family physician taught me how to administer the Insulin, thus saving a considerable umount of money. It has been a year since I took the treatment -and I have lost only two pounds of tho weight gained, We both wish to express our rilt- tude for the suggestion. Mrs. H . When I began urging Insulin treat ment purely for the purpose of en abling underweight persons to accu mulate needed flesh a good many tenders who consulted theii physicians about It met with the old refrain. The doctors who had not ke.pt well Informed on the progress of medicine opined that the administration of In sulln to a person who has no dia betes would be "dangerous." But nearly all of the brethren have caught on now, and thousands of former holy frights are bigger and better and happier, I'm sure. Insulin treatment hai been em ployed with much satisfaction in the treatment of the undernutrition that occurs In pulmonary tuberculosis. The patients not only gain weight, but gain vitality and strength from Insulin treatment. Every unit of Insulin a patient re-; cetves enables the patient to meta-1 bollze or utilize so much nutriment NEW YORK DAY BY DAY BY O.O.Mclntyre NEW YORK, Feb. 15. No celebrity ever vanished so quickly and com' plotely from the Broadway scone as Jean Schwartz, or so v o 1 u n tartly. Twenty-five years dRO he was the falr-halred boy in Tin Pan Al ley's blngo-bango. And a first night- er comparable to even Diamond Jim Brady, Schwartz was a O h e 1 1 o sprout who ' wrote the most popular tunes of his or almost any other ra. One of his wintry tunes, aproprlately called "Winter," with an accompaniment of sleighbells, Is used to this day In pictures and vaudovltle to suggest that season. His "Chinatown, My Chinatown" la also used Invariably for an Orients! scene "when the lights are low." B'lt his best known song waa "Bedells," Schwartz, an engaging fellow, made enormous sums, hobnobbed with headline figures of the day and was married to and subsequently divorced from one of the Dolly twins. ir watchers of the Broadway ps i to whom I phoned for news of S. . nrtz were vague. "I think he Is around," substanced each nebulous answer. While he dropped out with the speed of a bullet, few were more highly regarded or better known along the White Way. I mean no disrespect. He Is highly and deservedly bespoke for the hltjh place he holds In Washington. Yet every time I see Speaker Henry L. Ralney'a picture tn the news reels I think of a big Stetson hat, a black faced banjo picker, the open barouche nnd a kerosene torch. You remember the fellow In the public square near the courthouse who sold Dr. JoneV Pain Killer, good for man or beast. The late Dr. Frank Crane, who mas tered languages as a hobby, had oc casion to write a very erudite letter to Wtlllsin Hayes Ward, editor of the 0l Independent, and put it In purest Greek. Hayes replied in Latin, where upon Crane came back In perfect Ger man. Hayes then wrote In French, was answered in Spanish and thought he could choke off the battledore and shuttlecock with a letter In Italian. But Crane was thorough. He came back in Hebrew, and the curtain fell. One of the successful International free lances Is Basil Woon, who has served as correspondent In many E- ropean capitals for American news papers and press associations.

Any doctor who Is qualified to prac tice medicine knows how much In sulin to give and how to instruct the patient so that there snail be no un tovard effects In any circumstance. It Is th) usual plan to give from 10 to 20 units .wo or three times s day at fin;, und regulate the dosage subsequently according to the results In the Individual case.

B ECATJSE of the birth of a little crown prince, the people ore eo happy they turn all the prisoners loose for that Is what "granting general amnesty" means. The pris oners loosed, presumobly, mciuae convicted criminals, who will flow be free to start out preying on the public again. Odd, Isn't It? But then a lot of odd things hap pen In this world. T"HE birth of this little prince, re al member, occurred nearly two months ego. The people of Japan, we read, are still rejoicing over it, They certainly take their happiness seriously over there. In this country, those of us who happen to be on the winning side can manage to work up quite a little enthusiasm on the night of election, while the returns are coming In, but we couldn't possibly keep it up lor two months. The Japs are a wonderful people. A MONO the Japanese who are Justifiably happy even hannv enough to keep on celebrating for two months is the empress, the mother of the little new prince. Prior to this Important event, she had been discredited In the eyes ot the nation, having borne to her hus band four daughters and NO son. In absolute monarchies, that is a ter rible disgrace. Court pressure, we read, had been brought upon the em peror, urging him to take a concu bine tn the hope of thus securing a son. Now all that Is unnecessary. You can imagine how happy the empress must be. WHY are sons ol such tremendous Importance to absolute monarch and why are the people so happy when one Is born? Well, to the monarch himself, you see, birth of a ion means that his line will go on as the ruling line, instead of being broken through lack of a male heir. To the people, It means the orderly continuance of organized government Instead of the anarchy that has often prevailed when the old king dies with out a ion to step Into his shoes.

(AP) The policy that all permanent laws affecting agriculture should be so written that farmers will not be de prived nor relieved of the responsi bility of managing their own farms, was affirmed In one of several reso lutions adopted here late Wednesday by the Oregon Co-operative Council. Another resolution which would have commended Max Gehlhar, state director of agriculture, for his stand In the recent butter code contro versy, died In committee. Estimates place the value of the fruit code at around $10,000,000 this year for the northwest apple, pear and prune growers. It was declared at the co-operative meeting by Paul Scherer of Medford, president of Northwest Fruit Industries, inc. Joint regulation by Oregon, Cali fornia and Washlngton'of the Pacific coast berry industry was recommend ed by Gehlhar. who spoke also at the annual meeting of Oregon co-operative marketing organizations. The co-operative council observed by resolution that "the administra tion' of the production control fea tures of the agricultural adjustment act has not yet passed out of the experimental stage," and recommend ed that "no law affecting agricul ture designed to be permanent should be. enacted as amendments to the ogrtcultural adjustment act." The AAA was commended for Its present policy of vigorous enforce ment of licenses. The dairy group urged congress to adopt an excise tax of 5 cents a pound on imported fats and oils In addition to the 5 cent tax contemplated under the dairy production control plan.
