With the expenditure of a Miiall uiiiorfn't of coin compared to the value of the power when made available, one half tins stream could be brought Hirouuli the valley, and utilized ut l,i. .t..,..t uilli 11 full of i."ill lif ill .'ii IIIM iiiifc, n i.u u ..... . w - . hale oer a quarter of a inile; w hich would give us a power double that of the famous Spokane Falls. The same canal that would accomplish this, would furnish water for several thous and acres of the tinest fruit lands iu the world, would put us in position to sup ply the entire country east of us w ith tiuall fruits, and would make this one U the tinest dairy sections in the state. hat are you going to do about it? .Are you fcoing to ennit this w ater iiower to go to wulu forever? Your lauds to ho uncultivated ? The pro ceeds of your orchards to be devoted to purchas.ng hay imported from U.ande i.onde for the purpose your stock? lhat HoikI Kiver valley cr more beyond tho walls of the first a will produce all standard orchard fruits I freak of construction that cannot be lic it! abundance without irrigation, is un-! counted for on any kuown ground of doubteuly true us our fruits show j practical use or ornamentation. The lor themselves, but that the persons w ho raise the truit many of them pur chase their hay is equally true. W ith water tlirougu tho valley all this would be changed and every ten or twenty acivs would support a prosper ous aud contented family. W hat are y ou going to do about it ? Are you going to come the Micaw ber act, aud wait for someone else to come along aud make these improvements for you, or are ou going to put your shoulders to the wheel, and by energy, push and perseverance bring about , this prosperous state of uf lairs for yoursel vs ? If you do the former you w ill w ait for years, and then be compelled to turn over to the capitalists a large portion of your -f roduets. If you do the latter, stand together, and by temporary sac rifices own your own water rights, you will have a healthy bank account long before the canal will be built by others. What are you going to do about it ? Hood River isgrowiug and so is her school. The best evidence of this lies in the fact that, at this time last year, the whole school was accommodated in a single room. To-day there is not sufficient seating capacity in both rooms for the pupils enrolled. The sehool is not only growing in numbers, but the quality of the work done by the pupi aud their interests are grow ing in proportion. We understand the pupils of the school have a scheme on foot to purchase a new bell for the building. We believe this is the first project for improving the school that has been undertaken voluntarily by the pupils. This volunteer labor on their part to secure a needed improve ment in the school is the strongest testimony of their interest in the school, and we hope this committee of pupils will meet the same success in their eflbrts to purchase a bell that the teaehers did last term in securing the big flag which floats over the building daily. Parents, can you think of a more inspiring thought than that your children are daily being educated un der their country's flag ? Every pupil as he files out at four o'clock, before he breaks ranks, turns and salutes his flag. The flag is an appeal to the pupils eye, to his patriotism, to bis love of country; the bell will be a constant appeal to his ear. The present bell is an old fifty-pound cast steel, farm bell, and long siDce fell behind its capacity as a school bell. Pesides this, a very nearly fatal acci dent happened during last term by a part of the bell coming loose and drop ping to the floor of tho school-room be low. Wre believe the present bell was a contribution from Mr. Coe to the first school house built in Hood Kiver, and, by the way,' . the school has to thank Mr. Coe for several courtesies during its life so far. The pupils, iu their present efforts, purpose to purchase a thoroughly first class bell, made of pure bell-metal from the firm of Van Duzen & Tift of Cin cinnati, Ohio. They intend that the bell shall not only be large enough for the present building, but large enough for a future one as well. The parents and citizens of this dis trict should respond to this scheme liberally if tbey have the interest of the school at heart and wish to see it row. The school would gladly earn its funds by means of an entertain ment were there a suitable hail in the town, but until there is such a hall, the school must remain uanuicappeu , that respect HI Tim WImIoiii uf llm Am U'li..

Costoii Post. Illack mid Crren Tea. Generally speaking, all teas are di vided into two colors green aud bhick. Japan ia tho only country which pro duces gTeen tea only, while China is the only land where both colors are pre pared. India, Ceylon and Java send forth black teas aloue, 011 the principle at least ia India that adulteration of green tea is too easy. It is worthy of mention in this connection also that until within a few years all thd teas of Japan have been blacic, and this w:is the case when in lSoG the first importation of fifty half chests reached this country. The venture was immediately success ful. The flavor of the Japan tea pleased the American palate. It was spoken of as "a black tea with green tea flavor, " and as the leaf was dried iu the natural color it was believed that it must bo free from adulteration. The importation for the second year was 400 half chests, aud in the third year the amount arose to 1.100. But it did not by any means stop there, rising rapidly till tho yearly total reached the wonderful amount of 20,000, 000 pounds. Good Housekeeping. Kucapo fur the Cllery. An old time theatrical advance agent told me this amnsiii, incident which oo curved in London, England, at the first production of tho opera "Faust" in the Drnry Lane theatre: "The original Faust waa taken sick in the evening and could not appear in tho title role. An under study, whose name was not revealed, was chosen for the part He was n first class tenor, but was a very Etout man, weighing about 240 pounds. In the last act, where Marguerite lies dead on the floor, and Faust descends through a trap door amid lurid flames, the trap in this instance, being very small, was not large enough to let the under study through. The stage hands underneath pulled their utmost on the legs of the substitute, but to no avail. There was breathless silence in the audience at the awkward pause, which was soon broken by a voice in the il 1-: : i :n . tr v. r 11 , .t- , , tm 1. t 1 rah. fellows! Weresafe!

Thua a man named Soleimau Attala had a wife, Isbakyeh. The woman frequently worked for us, and on several occasions I had to complain that she talked too much and worked too little. At length I was obliged to tell Soleiman that, owing to his wife's lazines3, 1 could employ her no longer. Shortly afterward I went to England. On my return after a couple of months' absence 1 was surprised to find that Soleiman had divorced Lsbakyeh, and h;ul already married another woman. On inquiring from him the cause o! this he replied, "Your honor told me that you would not employ my wife again, so I thought I would get rid of her and marry another woman whom you would employ."
