APPLE GROWERS
have many details to attend
to at harvest time, some of
which can be taken care of
now. Among these are
RUBBER STAMPS
Look over your supply. You will
find some of them lost or worn
out. Perhaps you have a new
variety coming into bearing or need
a name stamp. Place your order
NOW and have them ready when
needed.
HOOD RIVER GLACIER
A Convenience to Workers
At the request of citizens whose work keeps them em
ployed daily until six o'clock, we have agreed to keep our
store open for two hours after supper on each Monday and
Wednesday.
Come in and look over our shelves, where you will
find, posted prominently riyht beside the goods themselves,
special prices on all articles.
We will take all your eggs or country produce and pay
you CASH, or trade if you wish.
We will furnish to any church or fraternal organiza
tion, giving a luncheon or dinner, free coffee, provided our
name and the brand name of the coffee are mentioned. On
certification from county officials of the want of any fami
lies, we will sell our goods to such families at cost.
It is the consensus of expert opinion that sugar and
canned goods are due for an increase in price. It will pay
you to visit our store and buy your supplies of these arti
cles at our reduced prices.

Koad crews under the superviCon of
Supervisor Chas. Thornton, are con
structing 3500 eel of new road grade on
the Trout Lake road survey near the
Weingartner ranch on the White Salmon
river. The work is heavy but when oom
plated will be a great improvement. A
few weeks aso a bridge was burnt out
and a detour had to 1m- built. This de

the present road and where tbe bridge

REMAINS IN HER MEMORY
How North Star Brings Up Vision of
Happy Childhood to th
Mind of Writer.
One of my own most perfect ehlld
hoou "Memories concerns my visits to
my grandmother, when she invited ine
to stay for Mtpper, and my grandfa
ther walked home with me after dark.
All along the way, he used to point
out our two shadows on the pavement,
as we passed the street lights one by
one.
We watched the way the shndowa
were very short directly below the
lamp, and how they lengthened until
they were lust our height Ills more
than twice as tall as mine and how
they finally grew so long that their
topa were almost out of sight. ThQ
object was to find the point where
the shadows were exactly as till I us
ourselves. When we came to the
darkest part of the street, where our
shadows, were lost In the hedges, we
used to stop and find the North star
over a pointed tree near my own
home.
That was always the way we made
the Journey from his home to mine,
until he thought that I was too old
to care to have him show me stars
and shadows any more. But for me,
as long us I live, the North star will
shine over that particular tree. And
I shall always keep the memory of
that funny little shadow that used
to be mine, clear cut with the light
behind It and beside It, hand In bund
with It, that dear characteristic shad
ow that never fulls on any road In
the world. Frames Lester Warner In
the Atlantic Monthly.

IDEAL GRADER
BELL MADE TOO MUCH NOISE
Invention of the Telephone Evidently
Waa Not by Any Means a
Quiet Affair.
The landlady couldn't stand It any
longer, and the lodgers threatened to
leave unless the racket stopped.
Alexander Graham Bell was the
cause of the trouble. He had rigged
up a contraption In his bedroom and
a duplicate In the room of his accom
plice, Thomas A. Watson. A wire went
out of the window and connected the
two machines.
These two machines, according to
young Bell, were first models of a
revolutionary invention, tlie telephone.
"I don't care what It Is," said the
landlady, "but If you two boys don't
stop yelling your heads off, Into those
boxes, you'll have to pack your trunks
uud get out."
This episode of the angry landlady
happened years ago In a cheap lodging
house In Boston.
The Western Union Telegraph com
pany offered Bell $100,000 for all his
patents. Bell, with vision, realized
that he had a fortune within grasp
and rejected the offer. He and Wat
son went around the country, deliver
ing lectures, and with the proceeds
financed themselves.
Today there Is a telephone to every
nine Americans and more than 24,-
000,000 miles of wire In the Bell tele
phone lines.

In learning what literature is good,
and a great deal more In attuning our
minds to Its reception, rightly eon
vliiccd that, by the training of our In
tellectual faculties, we are unlocking
one of tbe doors through which Vjreet
nesa and light may enter. We are
fond of reading, too. and have always
maintained with Mmnulay that we
would rather be a poor man with
hooks than a great king without,
though luckily for our resolution, and
perhaps for his, such a choice has
never yet been offered. Books, we
say, are our dearest friends, and so.
with true friendly acnteness. we are
prompt to discover their faults, and
take great credit In our logi-uulty.
Heat fatees Mao Mental Lapse
A man, normal in sll respects except
that he had forgotten his name, ap- '
plied Sunday to City Marshal Hart forj
aid. The stranger was taken ti the '
sick ward of the city hall, where after i
a few hours' rest he rime to himself. 1
He proved to tie John Lester, who is
employed by an O.-W. R. & N. bridge
crew at Meaner. Apparently he alight
ed from a passing train. The heat, it
is thought, caused the mental lapse.
Although Mr. lister when be left
was seemingly all right, he was never
able to remember for what reason he
had begun his journef .
