Compliments for Hood Klver Bride. The Dalles Chronicle. Wednesday we referred to the wedding of a former Dalles girl which, was to take place at llood River Thanksgiving day, and at the home of Mrs. Mary Booth yesterday at 10:30 her daughter, Miss Caroline, was united in marriage with Georite H. Cnlbertson. Beside Mrs. Booth and her son,John Booth, and Mr. and Mrs. W. II. Sharp and family, there were present I. U. Dallas, an luti mate friend of the groom, and Misses Anna Fulton, Anna and Laura Thomp son and Maybel Mack. The Booth home had been decorated for theoccasion with chrysanthemums and Oregon grape and presented a very cozy appearance as Kev. J. L, Ilersliner, of the Hood Hiver Con lireuational church, pronounced the words which united them for life, the Kpiscopal service being used. A wed ding dinner, the excellence of which may be vouched for by Dallesites who in former years have enjoyed the hos pitality of the Booth family, was served and Mr. and Mrs. Culbertsou.left on the afternoon train for Portland. Upon re turning they will make their home at Hood River, where the groom is en gaged in the real estate business. Dalles friends have more than a passing inter est in the welfare of the bride, who from childhood has displayed a sweet dispo sition and a charming, modest nature, which attracted everyone who knew her. They will be glad to know that she has chosen well. ( lienowetli News Notes. (Continued From Page 6.) all winter.

I'nilerwood School Notes. Thanksgiving day is past, and every body seems to survive, even though a good many complained of eating too much turkey or mince pie. Christmas is the next thing on the list. The pupils are arranging for a small Christmas tree and programme to be held on the afternoon before the holiday vacation, which will begin just a week before Christmas. It is a trifle early for Santa Clans to come, but so much longer time for the little folk to enjoy their fun. Mrs. A. J. Hayues has been confined to her bed for several days, on account of illness. Mr. Knanp took the Spencer for Port land, Monday morning. Professor C. H. Cromwell spent Thanksgiving at his ranch. While t here he visited school on Friday afternoon. Miss M.

Happening at Stevenson. htevenson Pioneer. At a recent meeting of the Skamania county co-operative telephone associa tion the capital stock was increased f 1,000 by unanimous vote. The pro ceeds from this, with f.'tOO in the treas ury, and 2U0 due the association, will equip it to rush construction work cn the 11-mile gap to Castle Rock. J. W. Stevenson, Skamania county's oldest living pioneer was in town this week attending the telephone meeting. He is a stockholder and takes a lively interest in the association's welfare. Speaking of the weather he said the pres ent season reminded him of the winter of 182. The ice was piled np below the rapids to a depth of 15 feet. In one place the ice had cracked all the w ay across the river about three leet wide which filled with snow making an ex cellent path. Mr. Stevenson crossed in this path, using a pole about 20 feet lone for a safeguard. At one point he pushed the pole clear down without striking the water. The officials of the Regulator line are still scouring the country making com mendable efforts to regain their lost prestige, and incidentally to bust up the Siiencer. If it was not for this latter fact they would deserve a certain amount Ol pity, dui ineir intention is an too plain, and amounts to this: Should they succeed in their attempt to drive off the Spencer, they would resume their old tactics of "charging all the traffic would bear," and be as offensive and in' dependent as ever. But they mistake our metal. Because the Willamette valley farmers don't know better than to return to a boat monopoly when the temporary glamour of a cheaper fare is flashed in their eyes, is no indication that the bkamanians act in the same manner. The residence of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Duuthit was couBiiined by fire with all its contents Monday morning Mrs. Douthit was preparing to wash and had a good ore burning in the stove, ami was out talking to a neighbor when the latter saw smoke issuing from the eaves. Both women then rail into the house The baby, two years old, was found screaming and the room full of smoke and flames. The mother only had op portunity to save the child. A real tangible gold mine that pro' duces gold in big quantities from the start has at last been found in Skamania countv.

The Odell school mado the following donation to the orphans' home of Port land: rour sacks of potatoes, four boxes ol apples and one case of canned fruit, also fl.Zo in casti. This is a good show ing, but people always respond to a worthy cause. Superintendent C. L. Gilbert had this matter in charge and we presume all the schools of the countv contributed. Mr. McDuffy of Portland, an old time friend of ours was here last week looking over the country. He will file on a homestead near Mount Hood post office. Mr. McDuffy has a family that is cul tured and refined and ali such find a hearty welcome. Neither the roads nor the weather get too rough for strangers to have a look at Hood River valley. Yesterday there were two parties here, one of them lor the second time, looking for a location. It is now hog killing time, but in the absence of the hog the neighbors are killing beef and corning it for winter use. reed is high and in consequence beef is cheap. From the amount of bacon used hero, it does seem that hogs would prove profitable. Mrs. Booth is now in Portland, visit ing her daughter Nettie Kemp and oth er friends. She will return about the first of December. D. L. Davidson of Willow Flat will leave soon for the winter. He will eith er go to Portland or Seattle. Turkey comes high this time but most people will reach the famous bird tomor row. These thanksgiving days are al ways welcome. There is much to be thankful for here in Hood River valley. It is a day of retrospection; a day when smiles take the place of frowns. A day when the world seems kind instead of cruel. This alone is worth the price of the turkey. (ilacier Clubbing Rates.

Tula is, strange, to say, due to the fact that there the people have ever possessed more of freedom than in the colder localities. For two centuries or more the great mass of people of the uplands were slaves. They tolled In the mines, with a guard of soldiers set over them; they built the public roads; they worked the ranches, farms and haciendas for masters who gave them scarcely more than the food they ate. The great farms of the uplands have ever required sure help, and so each ranchman bad his serfs. Many estates possessed hundreds of them. Thus all Individuality was crushed out of the lower class, and the terrible effect of tills condition of things is still evident. The people of the hot lands fared bet ter, because there it was much easier to make a living and much harder to hold very large haciendas. For this reason the characteristics of the people ore quite distinct from those of their brethren of the upland plateaus.

The lower classes of the uplands, although they now have the nilvantiige of n fairly good public system of education nnd are be coming gradually educated, are in the main a distinctively uniuiihitiotis peo ple. They were so long in seinislavery that they feel that the world of the middle and upper class people Is be yond them. They have, therefore, no interest in anything outside their cir cle of friends and acquaintances that is, in a political way. But not so iu many hot country villages and com munities. There the Indian has ever been more or less a factor in the life of the community in which he resided. On the uplands there are long Btivtchc.4 of mure or less hare lauds, with mountains rising up boldly in the l.aclwor.nd. In many narts during t!io dry season the land is almost 'bar ren of vegetation. But lu the hot coun try grow tall and shady trees and thick undergrowth.

Healthy stimulation Is nn absolute need; without It the body will rust nnd fall to bits. The baby that never creeps about or kicks or exercises at nil either wastes Into a tiny midget of hones nnd wrinkles or else takes on pounds ot unhealthy fat nnd becomes Bolt nnd short breathed nnd without vitality. The bra'n that never calls upon It self for work must become dull and stupid, and it is the same way with the nmsele3 of the body. They are filled with blood vessels that should he t;p and doing. Tho blood has sev eral purposes, and one Is to carry away l:t mil of the waste fluids of the body, i'ho Ic.ngs are a sort of refinery, and tht! blood is n distilling nge.nt. If the blood becomes thick nnd unhealthy and sluggish the body does not keep Its youthful state. Kyes grow dull; Hps lose their redness; the complexion Is sallow and unlovely. H is an easy and simple matter to make exercise a habit Just like the habit of putting out the lights atnlghl nnd wondering If burglars will show up before morning. A most excellent scheme Is to take long, slow full breaths whenever you have a chance when you nre waiting for a car, when you nre walking, when you are going to sleep, when you have just awakened. Such habits nre valuable, most valu able, but because they don't cost any thing and are a little trouble lots of women fancy there Is nothing in such practices. Nonsense!
