cash to the store for groceries, or to the Hood River Glacier for subscriptions. Any cash counts, whether it
is cash over the counter, cash the first of the month on monthly accounts, or cash on back accounts.
The contest will be decided by a system of voting, on the basis of one-half cent for each vote. (For Illus
tration, $5.00 will buy 1000 votes.) Mayor E. H. Hartwig will carry the key to the box containing the votes.

will be sold the same as they are sold in the other stores in Hood River for goods of like quality. The price

Th Skalaten at th Waging.
A. O. C Iiddell was onct test man
at a wedding at which on of U
present was, to aay the least, dccod
rentlonal This U bis story la "Notes
From tbs Life of an Ordinary Gentle
man:" "Considerable excitement was
raised among tbs spectators wben It
was rumored that a tall oak box
placed against the wall contained a
skeleton, and alt sorts of rumors were
rife as to tbe significance of sucb a
curious wedding gift The real ex
planation was simple. An eccentric
old gentleman bad once found the
bride, who was fond of drawing, mak
ing a study from a skr.il aud bad
rowed that be would give her a whole
skeleton when she was nmrrled. Tbe
result was that after protracted nego
tiation be secured the framework of
an Austrian grenadier, whlih, be
lieve. It was found mo?t difficult to
import. This was not the sole trouble
connected with tbe gift, as when tbe
young couple set op bouse the serv
ants shied at this strange Inmate of
tbe establishment, and ha had to be
presented to a hospital."
Yarmouth's Hsrrlng Faast.
The bloater is not generally consid
ered to be the acme of style where a
dinner is concerned, and as an article
of diet It Is generally tx lleved to be
almost exclusively used by the lower
classes of society, yet Yarmouth, "the
home of tbe herring." has Its annual
herring dinner, wben the whole menu
from bors d'oeuvres to cheese consists
of herrings and sprats the latter her
rings In their infantile stage served
up In various ways. It must be said
that some of these ways are so In
genious and wonderful that It Is very
difficult to recognize tha familiar sil
very fish to which Yarmouth owes so
much of la prosperity, yet there is no
doubt that the ubiquitous herring la
every dish served up et Its famous
meal is present in some shape or form.
Thus for once the herring Is honored
In accordance with Its true value, for
tbe dinner Is presided over by tbe
mayor of tbe borough and Is attend
ed by all tbe leading men of the town.

The Ancient Oracles.
Herodotus mentions between seven
ty and eighty oracles of one sort and
another. There Is no reason for think
ing that tbe people who patronized
tbe oracles bad other than the liveliest
faith In them. The two great oracles
were those at Delphi and Dodona,
though there were several others that
stood well with tbe people. The pre
dictions were, of course, nothing but
predictions, since It Is now generally
understood that the promoters of
those famous Institutions were only
ordinary human beings like those who
patronized tbem. The deliverances of
the oracles belong to one of two
classes first, those founded on secret
information emd, second, those In
which tbe oracle bad absolutely no
Ideas on tbe subject and took refuge
In sheer vagueness. It was the faith
of the people rather than the Infalli
bility of the oracles that kept tbem
op so long.
Albrscht Oarer's Tankard.
One of the quaintest of drinking ves
sels la to be seen at the Bratwurstglock.
leln, a Nuremberg Inn which has re
mained unaltered since it was built In
1400. Sausages, sauerkraut and beer
are the only commodities obtainable,
and tbe limit of accommodation Is
reached when ten customers are pres
ent Yet several fortunes have been
made out of tbe bouse, for It was tbe
favorite haunt of Albrecht Durer, and
the pewter he drank from Is still treas
ured. This Is a double vessel, one
tankard fitting neatly Into the other,
and was reserved for Durer and his
wife. According to tradition, when
the artist was In a good bumor be used
to fill tbe Inside tankard for bis wife,
and they would clink lovingly together.
When domestic storms were brewing
be kept the tankards together and let
his wife go tblrsty.-London Graphic.

ASTORIANS PREPARE
FOR CELEBRATION
Furniture enoueh to fill 2a bit? cars
has been purchase in Astoria by the
residents who are planning to have
everything in shape for tiie Astoria
lentennial crowd which ii due with
the opening of the pageant on August
10. Five carloads of beds have been
shipped there and four more carload"
are known to be on the way. j
tvcrytioiiy in Astoria is iireiiaring
for the greatest crowd that ever vis
ited the ciy. The merchants are wear
ing great smiles because of the exten
sive purchases by the housewives of
new bed linen, glassware and fancy
articles to decorate for the visitors.
At this time more than 6,0 pO persons
may be housed in comfort in addition
to the ciipacity of the Beach Hotels
and the Astoria Hotels. Two school
bouses are beirg converted into hotels,
and the old Havel House is being
reopened under the direction of the
Abtoria Centennial. Eveiv extra bed
in the city has been assured, and those
who write in to the Committee in ad
vance may be assured of receiving just
the kind of accommodations they need.
it will be possible to lodge Catholics
with Catholic famlies. and take care
of other religious denominations as
well.
The Committee on Arrangements
have fcreated an Information Bureau
with is. S. rrisbie in charge. He
knows the location of every bed,
whether Jit is single or double size,
knows exactly what houses have baths
in the and what ones are without, can
tell you whether there is a telephone
in them house or not, and in fact pro
duce more information than a United
States census report.
All this detail was worked out under
the personal orders and directions of
General Manager A. A. Tremp, who
has wide experience in handling record
crowds, and big crowds are expected
in Astoria because of the unusually
low rates created by the railroads.
Those who contemplate a trip to
Astoria will be furnished any informa
tion they ask without charge by the
Committee.

deadly disease germs from the system.

Valley Christian Ch ireh.
Hie forum opened Sunday evening
with E. C. Smith, a prominent lawyer,
of Hood Uiver, the speaker of the
evening. Dr. lirosius was to have
spoken but was unable to be present.
Mrs. Auhagen sang h very touching
solo, "Face to Face," at the close.
More than one heart was touched, as
witnessed from the sobs from all parts
of the house.
Next Sunday evening Dr. Dumble
will deliver an address on "Right Liv
ing -from the Viewpoint of a Medical
Man."
Owing to the inclement weather last
Friday evening the ice cream social
given by the Endeavors did not pan
out as well as was expected.
Endeavor was well attended Sunday
evening; the topic, "Lessons from
Animals," was one from which we
could all glean something and the
leader, Beatrice Boyce, had a most
interesting meeting. This is her
maiden attempt by the way, and she
did exceptionally well. We are just a
handful but we're pretty much alive.
Our choir leader is trying to organize
a chorus choir for the summer months.
or as long as'the forum continues. At
present the leader, W. E. Cauller, 13 on
an outing at Lost Lake with his
brother and B. S. Murphy.
A basebal game is coining off soon
between the "Live Wires" and the
"Loyal Sons," that is if the "Live
Wires" don't get cold feet. We've
got 'em pretty badly buffaloed already.
They've got a hunch that they're some
athletes. Why, their teacher even
said he'd don the gloves and go a few
fast rounds with any five of us. Out
of ."pity for them we accepted their
challenge but will only put up three
men. Loyal Son.
