KLAM A TH REPLBLICAh E. J. MURRAY, Editor LEADING NEWSPAPER OF INTERIOR OREGON TWO DOLLARS PER YEAR IN ADVANCE One week from next Monday Congress ■ will mM and then will begin the great' quadrennial gabfest of the statesmen of both parties. Speeches on all sorts of p.ihiect« will he made for distribution through the mails during the next presi dential election, and these will te trans|>otte«i at Unde Sam's expense. All of the prominent candidates for tl e Republican presidential nomination will be in Washington, with the exception of Governor Huglies. He will be con spicuous by his al»sence. Heretofoie the national capital has been the mec«a for all aspirants, but Hughes is going to break another of the time honored rules and remain awav. He will stay tn New York state and look after the interests of the people. In the meantime he is gaining strength through the country and every day brings the nomination nearer to him. The followers of Taft hope to make his return from his trip around the world a triumphal event and once again bring their idol before the i limelight, but it is safe to say that this effort, like all that have proceeded will fail to rally the fast dying strength of the big man from Ohio. A Cabby Stung. Foreigners often fall a prey to the unscrupulous wiles of the British cabby, who basely takes advantage of the stranger's want of familiarity with English idiom, coinage and locality. We have heard of the Intelligent for eigner being driven about six statute miles in a journey from London bridge to Charing Cross. That cabby got the best of the tranaactiou. but a recent attempt to impose upon foreign cre dulity was frustrated cleverly by a son of Gaul. wbo<e taste for Joking led him to try to bambooale a cabby into at- tempting It with him.

Instead of plates, long tiles are made In Germany, something like a painter's palette made square. Instead of a thumb hole there Is only a small bole tn the middle of one end to hang this tile on a hook or peg. These tiles are thick and glazed with white, like any stoneware. One seeu was blue and white, and ouo red in f pretty flowing designs. They are used for bread and butter served with a cup of coffee. Doubtless tn Germany they are taken to the gar den on bright mornings. Here they are used as curios. It Is said that old gen tlemen used to them would feel quite "put out" If given a round plate lustead of this tile, with a good piece of butter on It. and a couple of fresh rolls for breakfast daily. German ways of setting the table are at variance with those of other coun tries. The knives for dluner parties are arranged out at an angle Into the middle of the table KuivaeStitd forks an' laid obliquely to the plate with the tips touching it.

A Vienna Specialist's Id««« on Thi« Fascinating Subject. The old fashioned definition of beauty sleep was the sleep that la taken before midnight, Beauty sleep is the sleep a woman _ gets after she has slept seven hours and I «fore she has slept nine, says a Viennese spe clallst. A woman needs all of seven hours sleep for the bulldlug up of her « vh tern. Then she needs two hours more for the recuperatlou of her body, and the extra two hours will restore her complexion, make her eyes bright, take the wrinkles out of her face and keep her form elastic. The woman who wants to derive the fullest benefit from her beauty sleep will compose het mind before sinking She will think off into slumber, pleasant thoughts, Worrying makes furrows in the brow aud sets line« around the mouth. A little light in a tiedroom Is a good thing for some peo ple, for ft will act cheerfully upon the nerves and drive away nightmare. Do not allow yourself to be awak ened In the morning If you mean to get beauty sleep, or if you must lie aroused let It be ever so gently, Do not wake up with a start, with an alarm clock or in consequence of a bell ringing, for any of these sounds will jar the nerves and destroy some of the good the sleep has done you.
