County School Superintendent Clan ton paid our school a visit last week. From here she went to Trout Lake. C. F. Lunsinir of the Quaker nursery, Salem, was in White Salmon Saturday. W. A Sherman of Vancouver, horti cultural inspector, was in town a few days ago. K. N. Wythe, junior member of the Glacier oliiee, paid White Salmon a visit Saturday. He was astonished at the development of our town since his last visit. O.J.Smith of Trout Lake came in one day last week. He pins his faith to the Trout Lake country, and well he may.

Little kid through snow to school cold toes near stove, cook on one side buck by windows, freeze snulilcs catarrh lung trouble little casket. That's all. It is the squirrel with the biggest pile of hazelnuts that wears the widest smile these winter days. He puts a new rope in his sled and sharpens up Ids skates while tils less provident neighbor hustles for collateral to put i r f.ii. rrrnK atfi $ ' News reached town a few days ago I hat a family of six children were suf fering from insutlicient clothing, 15 miles or so up in the snow-clad hills. Mrs. Purser and Mrs. Hunsaker inter ested themselves and White Salmon responded-so generously that a surplus of warm clothing is ready to meet the next case of neetl. There's some satisfaction these cold days, when the thermometer is crouch ing low and overdrafts are being made on the woodpile, to think of the flics that buzzed the summer hours away. We cannot forget the little tormentor that persisted in planting his sticky little feet on our weary eyelids when we had posed 1'. v a summer-day nap. or crawled in anil .-a! on the drum of our ear to buzz bis mrning ditty. Hut while we do not and cannot forget, we can and do forgive and why? lie cause ills eyes are now closed in death. His little heart has ceased to palpitate. His lashes lie motionless on his pallid cheeks and his little body, badly swol len but serene and perfectly composed, is motionless. His little soul is crone fins, we know not where. Let us trust that it is better with him now than we hope it is. We can hardly hope that he lias "gone on before." If he lias, we may be excused for desiring to remain ngnt Here. And, by the way, why is it that a fly, so dingy and common-place In life, is so gorgeously ar rayed in the cold embrace of death? With alabaster abdomen encircled by hands of resplendant hue, he kneels a frozen corpse, and no warm chinook can ever thaw mm out. lly-bye, by-bye, dear little fly, It Is no HHd that you mimt die. Alas! a tear Htands In our eye We'll minx you from both stew and fry By-bye, ta U; alas! by-bye. THE LATEST GRAFT. A Western man of wealth whose name ha been suppressed had one ear but longed for another. Whn enn blame him? Two feel better, look bet ter and make a better balanced cupola in everv wav. He consulted n nrnm. Inent New York surgeon. The result was thst the surgeon otl'ered $5,000 for a medium sized adult ear, free from freckles. and other blemishes. A Ger man who had two good ears that were mates but had been yearning for f,000 in vain, concluded to swap one of his ears for $5,000. No he looked up the surgeon in New York, told him that lie had an ear that was a daisy. The bar guin was closed and the German with his eye on the $5,000, stretched himself upon the surgeon's table and told the doctor to get his cant-hooks and meat ijnside each pound package of Lion Coffee 'will be found a FREE game. 60 different games.

The surgeon willed him into positiou, and cocking one eye along the teeth of his little cross-cut saw, he was about to get bold of the ear with his nippers, wnen ine German raised his head and Inquired if the surgeon would take both ears for $10,000. The surgeon assured him that one would be plenty, and placing a piece of choice limburger cneese unaer the German's cheek as a disinfectant, proceeded to operate. Well, the wealthy Western man and the thrifty ftprmnn ut last accounts were lying side by side, one with feet to the north, the other to the south, ear to ear. iney are eraduallv cutting it loose from the original owner, and they speak of the "flap" as if Human naps were a arug on the produce exchange. It's a "graft." When it's all over the wealthy man will get oft the table with two ears and go to work to get another 15.000. The German will arise minus one ear, and plugging the whole hi his a - t.i - "...i. I 1. neau wuu a coik, win go iu a -aim, deposit his $5,000 subject to check, and write to his Frauline to come to Amer ica as a cabin passenger on the next steamer. This throws some light on an item of ancient history. hen Mark Anthony rushed iu on the floor of the Roman senate and cried, "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears!" it was no idle, meaningless appeal. He was face to face with an economic fact. He was lobbying for the Royal Koman Society of Surgeons. Whether he gath ered in an assorted lot of ears on the spot, or whether they were sent to him by mail, is quite Immaterial. He evi dently got them, for the incident was never referred to again, and Mark An thony was not the man to let the mat ter drop till he got what he was after. Frankton News Notes.

The Boys and Girls' Aid Society of Oregon will be pleased to receive dona tions from the people of Hood River dur ing Thanksgiving week. In a letter to the Glacier, W. T. (iardner, the super intendent, says: It has been the custom for some years past fur the public schools oi Wasco county to donate fruit ami provisions to this society on Thanksgiving, and as this is the only society that cares for children outside of Mult'mumii county, I think we have a valid claim in this re gard. For when children are commit ted by County Judge Blakeley.or in fact, any county judge throughout the state, they are accepted at the institution without question, and if necessary, will send an officer up to take charge of such children and pay his expenses in so do ing, as we did in the Wigel case report ed to us by your county commissioner Mr. Hibbard. Our 'ot'licer found the children at Viento in a sad state of want. The mother bad died of consumption and the father had been taken to St. Vincent's hospital, in which institu tion he shortly after died, leaving these children without means, or hardly a roof to cover them, as the shack in which they lived was unfit for habita tion, and they had nothing but rags to lie on and nothing to eat except what was furnished by charitable neighbors. This case and many others comes to our notice and is acted on promptly and in a business like manner. If parents are unlit to care for their children, they are taken from them by process of law". Sincerely trusting that you may be able to assist us in obtaining the cus tomary donations at Thanksgiving, es pecially fruit and provisions, I remain respectfully yours, W. T. Gardner, superintendent. Irrigated lDtatoes With Onions. Three big potatoes were left at the Glacier office Friday morning, and the next Monday the following explanatory letter came to hand: Hood River, Or., Nov. 23, 1903. Edi tor Glacier: As potato stories are in season please give nie space to tell my success as a potato grower. I present to you thei potatoes. They re not as large as t-ome they tell us about, but you ninct take into consider ation that they are ready for hash, as they are flavored with onions, for we are short on w ater so we must be eco nomical and plant our onions and pota toes together in alternate rows so that the onions make the eyes of the pota toes water and they do not have to be irrigated, sek?

A Hood River carpenter was drawn for jury duty at the recent term of dis trict court. He was building a house for a lawyer at the lime and the lawyer didn't want him to stop, so he went to the judge with a batch of excuses to get liim off. The carpenter, not knowing what the lawyer had done, also went to the judge with a big story about his health being so bad he could not possi bly endure the strain of serving on a jury. The judge said it would be a serious handicap on his court to have two fcuch liars in attendance at once.nnd as the lawyer hud a right to be there .lo would l-.-t the juror go. They Live Long1. Newf-imperdom. The printer's trade is not necessarily incompatible with a fair degree of longev ity, if we take Hr a sample the case of James I. C. Cook,t-enior owner and pub lisher of the Milford, (Mass.) Journal, who has seen his Hi it h birthday this week, says a New England paper. He has been smelling printer's ink for 72 years. He began as devil of the Bellows Falls Intelligencer in November of ISoO. A happy old age to him. There have been other cases of similar long life which go to show that the "art preserv ative" applies to life as well as toother tilings.
