HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THUKSDAY, JUNE .81, 1008 THE AGE OF AN'bYSTER. tarn Cm Ten It by tha Llnea oa tha HIbk of tha Shell. In some ways an oyster la smarter than the inau who eats hlui, but In out respect the cousumer has his victim beaten lu the matter of wisdom. Tb4 consumer hus learned the art of "mak ing up" to conceal his age; the oyster has not Any one who wishes to do so can find out Just how old au oyster Is. The Hues In Uie groove of th hinge of the shell tell the whole sto ry. These lines are a true Index to the number of layers composing the Rhell, being, lu f u t, nothing else than their attenuated tails. One of thes layers grows eai-U year, and, no matte! how hard the sensitive oyster may try to keep It from showing, it is bound to overlap Its predecessor and leave a ridge which, no doubt, is Just as an noying to the oyster tribe as an an nual wrinkle would be to the human race. Up to the time of au oyster's matu rity these layers are ui ranged with reg ularity, but after that they fairly pill over each other, Just as If the llttl bivalve's birthplace had crowded upon each other so rapidly thut he didn't have time to spread out one new plats before another was right at his heels. An oyster comes of age when be li four years old. Coming of age In th oyster kingdom means that he la old enough to take care of a family and go to market. Going to market Is a disastrous undertaking and Is gener ally the last of him, for a four-year-old oyster Is particularly palatable, and people do not hesitate to pay a pretty good price for a pint or a quart of him. By this It must not be Inferred that after an oyster has passed th four layer period and hus five, ten 01 even a dozen wrinkles 'on his shell he Is a back number and fit for nothing but to keep on accumulating wrinkles until he dies of old age. In deed, there are records of oysters be ing eaten Just after celebrating thell thirtieth birthday, and in most cases they formed quite a delicious meal This Is an unusual age for an oystei to attain, because few of them are giv en an opportunity to live so long. II left to enjoy life In his own quiet way It Is quite probable that the oystet would live to become an octogenarian or even a centenarian. New Tork rress. BITS FROM THE WRITERS. Progress Isn't a passing fancy; it's the life principle. Elizabeth Robins. When we work because we lov work, then the work Is well done. Marie Corelli. There can be no Journey more pleas ant than that which carries us a stage upon the road to our ambitions. Max Pctubertou. You mustn't mind what other peo ple do. If their souls were your soul It would bo different. You stand and fall by your own work. Kudyard Kip ling. It Is a curious contradiction that happiness Is the one thing people real ly want and that It is the one thing nearly everybody misses. Gertrude Atherton. The kind of honesty that won't actu ally steal 's a kind of fool honesty that's common enough, but the kind that keeps a feller's mouth shut when ho hadn't ought to talk 's about the scurcest thing goin'. E. N. Westcott. Parental Parsimony. Everything Is by comparison. Said a woman recently of a young married couple whose families are counted "Im mensely rich:" "They really cannot live on their Income; It is shocking to pinch as they must. Why, you know, his father only gives him $10,000 a year, lie has a salary of $5,000, and she has an allowance from her family of $10,000-only $25,000, with a $100, 000 house to keep up. It's outrageous, with all the money there Is In those two families!" Twenty-five thousand dollars income and a completely fur nished house and yet counted paupers by the world in which they move! Bet ter change the orbit and come Into one of common sense. Boston Herald. A Railway Mtxap. Among those who have been com plaining of the slow railways In Italy Is a commercial traveler, who recently determined that the Milan express should end his life. Two minutes be fore the train was due at a certain sta tion he laid himself stoically across the rails. After vainly awaiting the train's approach for fifty minutes tha gentle man was compelled to relinquish the project. He threatened to sue the di rectorate for Inconvenience caused him, in which case, It Is said, the railway authorities will put In a counterclaim for services rendered. One Comfort Left. The retired merchant was looking over his old ledgers. "What satisfaction does that afford you?" asked the caller. "A heap," he answered.

Diderot, the French poet, once Bald, "He who would write of women should ' dip his pen In rainbow dye and pow der his lines with gold dust from bur erflies' wings "Conaeelor Therefora." Sergeant Kelly, a celebrity f the Irish bar, had a remakable habit of drawing conclusions directly at vari ance with his premises and was con sequently nicknamed "Counselor There fore" In court on one occasion he thus addressed the Jury: 'The case la so clear, gentlemen, that you cannot possibly misunderstand It, and I should nay your understandings a very poor compliment if I dwelt upon It for an other minute.

IT Woman's Trial. The bitter trail In a woman's life la to be childless. Who can tell how hard the straggle may have been ere she learnt to resign herself to her lonely lot? The ab sence of this link to bind marital life together, the absence of this one pledge to mutual affection is a common disap pointment. Many unfortunate couples become estranged thereby. Even if they do not drift apart, one may read the whole extent of their disappointment In the eyes of such a childless couple when they rest on the children of others. To them the largest famllydoes not seem too numerous. In many cases of barrenness or child lessness the obstacle to child-bearing is easily removed by the cure of weakness on the part of the woman. Dr. Pierce's Fa vorite Prescription has been the means of restoring health and frultfulness to many a barren woman, to the great joy of the household. In other, but rare rases, the obstruction to the bearing of children has been found to be of a surgical character, but easily removable by painless operative treatment St the Invalids' Hotel and Sur gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., over which Dr. Pierce of the " Favorite Prescription " fame presides. In all cases where chil dren are desired and are absent, au effort should be made to find out the real cause, since it is generally so easily removed by proper treatment In all the various weaknesses, displace ments, prolapsus, Inflammation and de bilitating, catarrhal drains and in all cases of nervousness and debility. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Inscription Is the most efficient remedy thatcan possibly be used. It has to its credit hundreds of thousands of cures more In fact than any other remedy put up for sale through druggists, especially for woman's use. The ingredi ents of which the " Favorite Prescription " Is composed have received the most positive endorsement from the leading medical writers on Materia Medico of all the several schools of practice. All the ingredients are printed in plain Englith on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, so that any woman making use of this famous medicine mav know exactly what she is taking. Dr. Pierce takes his pa tients Into his full confidence, which he can afford to do as the formula after which the "Favorite Prescription'" Is made will bear the most careful exam ination. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellots are tha best and safest laxative for women.
