The special session of the leglsla ture called for the sole and epeclflc purpose of providing measures for the construction of a new state capltol, is making wonderful pro gress, doing everything, tout what they were assembled for. Nobody knows for sure Just what alls the hired men of the people, but fear It will turn out to be a case of legislative Infantile paralysis. The- Wig Ashpole boy, 2, was downtown Tues., full of business and candy. . Joe Marshall the printer protested Frl. am. against the sameness of the sameness, and the dullness thereof. He stfttes he follows in his own tracks, day after day. He wants more variety, as long as It Is not a Re publican administration. Ben. Steiwor was here last week, confabbing with constituents, and shaking paws. Local friends of Bert Bates of Roseburg, pouglas Co. delegate to the Old Age Pension meet In Chi cago sent him a wire Thurs. night, telling him to hold out for a 400 per month ante, or never dsrken Oregon again. Bert has reached the ripe old age of approximately 40. He was warned not to stay out In the cold and have his rheumatism come back on him, . Toungln's are all set for the an nual wroaklng of the Hallowe'en havoc on the nights of the 39, 30 and 81 Inst. ; v i 1 , Farmers voted last week on wheth er they, wanted to continue to be paid for hogs they did not raise, or let Santa Claus transact his busi ness exclusively around a Christmas tree. Carpenters will soon start the work of removing the bay-window from C. Strang, the pioneer pllllst. This will even up the architectural continuity of the Main Stem, and prevent it getting knocked off, in case a box -car Is ever shot down the thoroughfare. The news reel at the O. Hunt magic lantern show last Frl. showed a group of Swiss yodellers who went to the top of a mt. to yodel. The valley has no yodellers, and It wouldn't be nice to ask a tenor to climb Roxy Ann. Del Oetchell, the banker-poet was up all night with a Jury Tues. He showed up the next day as sleepy looking as the owner of a new world wide radio. The state P.-T.

A large band of Eagle headed by a Scotch kilty bag pipe Rquad boarded the Shasta at Salem. They poured into three Pullmans tacked on the train at Eugene. Debouching here at the Union station they were met by various and sundry Portland. Eagles, including a snappy drum, corps, in gay uniforms, and the entire army marched around the waiting room several times, making such a racket one had to yell at the Pullman agent to get a sleeping car ticket for Seattle. The taxi driver who finally puKlwd his way through the mob and got us in his car, was much impressed. , Said he: I am going to nom the Eagles one of these days, it's the best of them all. They have more fun, and do more for their members and for the poor, than any other lodge. They're more for the common run of people like me." No doubt about the fun feature, as far as the Salem delega tion was concerned. They certainly made whoopee all the way to Portland, joining the bag pipers who never stopped blowing Highland airs, with their own variations of "Sweet Adeline", "Working On the Railroad" and "My Own Kentucky Home." As the Shasta reached here at 7:35 p. m. it seemed rather early in the evening to reach the swipe harmony stage, but one of the members informed us, Eagles can sing all day and all night and never droop a tail feather. Coming up town we passed the line of march on Broadway, and could observe no signs of weakening. Later no doubt the Eagle will be true to tradition and scream! v ' . eee.ee What is so rare as a clear sunny day in October, gliding through the Cow Creek canyon with an S. P. engineer acting as chauffeur. An Easterner who took the train trip up the coast a year ago this month told us last summer in New York, just to be clubby, that he found the Pacific coast very disappointing in the fall. There was none of the color so vivid and thrilling in the wooded sections of Now York und New England., As he expressed it, "it was all rusty brown, dirty yellow and cold gray stretches of sand out there! Wc were not surprised to learn he passed through Oregon at night, on the Cascade, and never saw Cow Creek canyon. The colors the Shasta passed through today from Grants Pass to Roseburg molten gold, sumac red, vivid green, deep purple and flame, would compare favorably with anything one could see cast of the Hudson, or anywhere else in North America. e . . We like to curse out the old S. P., but wait a minute I , . . We paid nine dollars for a ticket that will take us from Hertford to Seattle, and adding one dollar and two-bits, give us a bed to sleep in en route, with all the comforts of home thrown in. Where, how and when could that transportation tfe supplied in any other medium 1 And on a round trip ticket one could knock off four or five dollars. Figure it out, that is less th'an gns and oil if you drive your own car. In fact it's about half. Moreover you can rest and read, cat and sleep en route, resell ing Seattle in less than a clay's running time, and be about as suro as you can be of anything, you will end up at your destina tion safe and sound instead of in a hospital. (There's your quid pro quo, Roscy, and many thanks for the dinner.) At Roseburg we learned the prune crop has been a flop, the price being so low it won't pay the farmers to pay for their drying. Broccoli won't be so bad. A small crop of prunes in the Umpqua valley, but a big crop elsewhere too big the old story of supply and demand. Of courHO the AAA is terrible and fruit oodes Worse, but what doth it profit a farmer to raise a crop he CAN'T sell. Isn't it better to raise less and make something, than, to raiso more and make nothing at all? So few people seem to rcnlizo when they are talking against the theory of scarcity and clamor for tho theory of abundance, they aro rcally putting the Bkids under the entire profit system. r There are undoubtedly plonty of turkeys in the Roseburg area as there are in the valley of the Rogue, but from a car window you can't sco them. In the Willamette valley north of Eugene however the Shasta passed fauns where acres and acres were literally black with turkeys, great big follows, packed together in expectation of the evening feeding hour. Some far mers will have something to bo thankful for Thanksgiving day maybe! .What a land of peace and plenty the .Willamette valley appears, farm after farm, mile sftor mile of fertile acres, stretch ing flat as a pan cako to the distant mist shrouded lulls. The nows butcher comes through selling early evening Portland papers. A banner about the Italian war -100 Italians ambushed and killed dispatch comes from Addis Ababa, but is not con firmed. Probably not true but no one knows. One looks out the window again, what would become of Oregon if 45,000,000 men, women and children, were crowded within its borders and had to make a living from the land! Well, all Italy hasn't the fertility, productivity and area of the state of Oregon. At least that is what he professor who boarded the train at Eugene informs us from across the aisle. A professor ought to know. Ho adds "People in this country don't realize what Italy is up against." IIowabout realizing what Ethiopia is up agninst, and the world also if this war goes on ! e e e e e The S. P. has speeded up sinoe our last trip this way. No more 15 and 20 minute stops en route, only three or four. At Salem in spite of all tho Eagles milling around, we ran into a man we knew who raises hops on his ranch, or used to. Asked him how.hops were and he said terrible, but wo didn't have time to find out why. A station truck rumbled by, transporting five kegs of beer to the Pullmans in the rear, which suggested it couldn't be due to absence of consumption, or decline in the beer demand. During the past year or two nothing has changed more than the railroad day coach. . Think what they wore 25 years ago, or only eight or ten. Now they are clean, comfortable, warm in winter, cool in summer, the one we rode in today bad no reclining chairs but most of them have, and you can have all the pillows you wish for ten cents per. Also hot coffee and sandwiches, cookies or pie, served by the news butcher whenever you wish. Sandwiches at ten cents very good ones too, and coffee for five. Talk about service, even the conductor doubles to assist the brakic as nursemaid, porter, and roustabout. A young mother in front of us who boarded the train at Medford had an infant son about six months old or perhaps 16 wc never can be sure at any rate it was still on a bottle, which may mean something to our woman readers, was about 30 inches long and could walk several steps even on a moving train without falling down. The brakic tended this infant for at least ten minutes while mother took a vacation, and let it hang on the finger of one hand ami paw and jump up and down, without giving the slightest indication this was at all out of line with his regular duties or not imposed by the union rules. Men always liko to do that, let a baby crab a finger so firmly in one list, it snows tne nionkev m them. tlie HA Hi we mean! R. W. R. Personal Health Service By William Brady. M.

Beverly Bills. Cat. A MONOTONOUS UCCESSION OP BOII.S. One boll or two or three In suc cession is furunculus. but when it becomes habit we call It furuncu- losis. in the good old days when doctors had only to p r o n o u nee t h 1 n g a It was sufficient to ex plain furunculo sis as a matter of run down condition, 1 o w ered resistance or bad blood. Today we have to spell things and It Is not ao easy to account for successions of bolls. But we are still resourceful and If It comes to a pinch we can always subdue curi osity by Introducing the word meta bolism. Generally that quiets them, all right. It seems that bolls are more likely to occur when there Is a deficiency of carbohydrate metabolism, no fool ing. That means Inability to burn sugar well. If the sugar Is not read IT? oxidized or burned to furnish energy In the body, an excess of sugar ac- cumulatea In blood and tissues. This is frequently found in cases of re curring bolls. It may be a temporary condition. Again In some Instances It Is the beginning ot diabetes. Incidentally,' we have learned in the past two or three years that an adequate supply of vitamins la es aentlal to maintain normal corbo hydrate metabolism or to restore the body's power to burn and utilize sugar when this vital function is Impaired. Mind, this Is Incidental; 1 am not suggesting that vitamins cure boils, altho .good authorities havo observed undue frequency ot bolls In the history of patlenta suf fering from lack of vitamins A. U and B and G. Careless or unskilled handling 01 Boll No. 1, and transplantation ot pus-germs from this to a new site ot operation Is probably the common cause of Boll No. 2 and ao on aa flnltum. One, excellent first aid treatment for anything that threatens to be come a boll Is the Immediate sp pllcatlon of a thin disc of ordinary toilet soap the size of the thumb nail to the young pimple, and then a Btrip of adhesiy'e plaster to hold this in place. 8oap Is an excellent antiseptic. Reminds me of the good old soap and brown sugar treatment grandma used for stone bruises when we were kids in Canadalgua. I don't know whether the sugar added any thing to tho remedial value of We poultice, but I've never found any thing better in materia medlca with the possible exception of Old Doc Salve, which some of you old-timers may remember.

British loasrs in the world war now total 493.393. Speaking of soap, which perhaps I should do. In view of my deplor able attitude toward bath tubs, 1 wish to go on record aa of the opin ion that not nearly enough soap la used In this country today, first by the young people for cleansing and beautifying their faces, and secona by everybody for washing their hands, In well regulated households there la a rigid rule requiring .that the children carefully wash their hands before they come to the table to eat. There Is greater need for such a rule for grownups who eat in hotel dining rooms, restaurants, or lunch rooms. It la not so much the visible dirt as It la the Invisible pollution of the hands that matters. and the best way to remove that la by a thorough washing with plain soap and water sanitary essentials which some health authorities too readily waive. , NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O, O.
