TiLLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, OCTOBER 14, 1Ô09. He Got the Chair. On a very hot afternoon a number of around town cbu|>s who didn't seem to have much to do were lounging In tbe chairs in front of a lending hotel. Several traveling men came out of tbe hotel and. finding all of the ibairs occupied, looked and «¡Hike things that wouldu't go well In polite society. "Let'« dump a few of them out” suggested one. "Hold ou a minute." replied another "Watch me get a chair." With that he walked over to oue of the loungers Hnd In tbe most courteous way said. "Will you please tell me whether that is a drug store across tbe street ?" “No." replied tbe lounger; “that's a bank." "Oh. Is It? Well. say. what Is that nice big building just down tbe street there, two corners away?" "That’s tbe postofiice,” was the re ply "You live I d this charming city, then?" asked the drummer. "I do." said the lounger. “Well, then." replied the travrllng man, "I'm a guest at this hotel it nd paying for accommodations, Suppose you get up and give me that chair.” He got the chair.—Kansas City Jour nal. Lavender Oil. As four-fifth« of the oil extracted from In vender is concealed In tbe bloom the harvest takes place just be fore the flower beglua to fade at tbe end of August. Tbe oil Is distilled by means of steam. W hich Is compelled to |H-t>etnite tbe closely packed lavender, afterward being drawn off In pipes that ruti through cold water. In this manner Hie steam is reconverted into waler, but the process of passing through the luvender baa extracted the oil. which floats on the surface of tbe water as It runs Into glass Jars down below. These jars have sprouts in the center, thus enabling tbe water to ruu out while the oil collects above tbe level nf tbe exit. In this tbe first stage ■ he oil is of a brownish blue rim and It now has to be refined by passing once more through water. Tima all impurities are removed, and the oil runs out white, save for a very pale blue color similar to that observed In parafilm 1 hree pounds of oil will make thirty gallons of the perfume. Tin- majority of Indies would be sur prised if they were informed that a bottle of lavender water contains but about a I blinbleftil of pure oil. for a larger proportion would not only reu- tier the wmer too strong for use. but would burn boles tbrougb tbe hand ler lilel uli>-rever tbe scent touched it. — Loudon Standard. The Poor Bridegroom. "Even I tie English language empba sizes tbe insignificance of a mao at bis own weduing." said tbe prospective britlegrisim disconsolately.

Best man. of course. menus tbe bridegroom's best man. but the phrase itself tends to exalt tills Individual at tbe expense of his superior. "Then there's no adjective to de scribe what pertains to the male half of the affair. You can't speak of the 'brldegruoiiiul' trousers or necktie. On the otbei hand, 'bridal' upplles uot ouly to Hie possessions of the girl, but to what relutes to both of them equally, I like tbe trip and the bridal chamber. The very words 'matrimony' and 'mat rimonial' are from the feminine side only. 'I’utrlmony' has nothing to do with the uupiliils.

The earliest European stiiiiding army was that of Macedonia, established about 353 B. C. by I'liillp. father ot Alexander tbe Great.

Of mod- eru standing armies, lliat formed by the Turkish Jimltuiries was first, being fully organized in 1362. It was a cen tury later that the standing army of France, tbe earliest in western Europe, was established by Charles VII. Iu the h I iiiik ' of "compiigiiles d'ordonnanee." numbering 9.060 men.

WWW "Doc" Crumbine is a new star risen in Kansas for the illuminatiou of a world. In the multitude of lights set in the vast expanse of the Kansas heavens, there may be no longer room for new shining, but it can l>e said for Crumbine that he at least twin kies. He twinkles with a baleful light just now in saying that, it the Popu listic whisker ever again becomes the Kansas fashion, it will be the breed Ing place of germs and bacteria whicli will threaten depopulation of the state. As secretary of the Kansas State Board of Health, and a physician in good standing, Crumbine has forced public attention upon the peril. His theory is that, amid the tangled root« of the voluminous capillary ioteguiuents of Kansas populism, where neither water nor soap does penetrate, million, of dis ease breeding germs multiply and replenish the earth Remove the cause, says Crumbine. and the effect will disappear Shave off the whiskers of populism, says he. and there will 1« left aland of plenty and a people who will lire long in that land. ! THE PORT’S POWERS Port Succeeds to all Rights, Privileges and Property of Former Ports. Salem, Ore., Oct., 0. 1909. Mr. James Walton, Jr , Secretary Port of Tillamook Commis sion. Tillamook, Oregon. D ear S ib :—In reply to your favor of the 6th instant, with relation to the Port of Tillamook, as recently incorpor I ated under the provisions of chapter 39. page 78, laws 1909, permit me to sav I that, in my opinion, <said corporation has succeeded to all of the rights, privi leges and property of the Port of Tilla mook incorporated by special act of 1899, for the reason that tbe port last incorporated has all of the powers and duties of the earlier port, with probably some in addition, and at the sameftime covers nil of the territory covered by the earlier port. and. as I have been inform ed, considerable more. It is the general rule of construction | that were a later act covers all of the subject matter of an earlier act. the I earlier act is repealed by implication. It i has also been held that whete a new | charter hHS been enacted, either by the J legislature or by the people of a munici pality, covering the same territory and objects as the former charter, but with out any reference to the former charter, either by way of repeal or amendment, such enactment is a re-organiiatlon of the former municipality, or, at least, that the later municipality is the succes sor of the former, as to allofits rights ! and obligations. 23 Cyc. 236 Miller v. Ponsacola. 17 Fed Case. No. 19619: 2 Woods 632. Amy v. Selma, 77 Ala. 103. To my mind, this is further supported by the provisions of section 9 of chapter 39, cited in your letter, where it proves that ; “Any port or corporation, heretofore organized and now in existance. may I i re-incorporate under the provisions of this act, and in which such case all books papers, maps, moneys, and other prop erty of and belonging to such port or corporation shall pass to and become the propei ty of the port or corporation re-incorporated under this act.” As already shown, it is not necessary to state in th« proceedings that it is a , re-incorporation, if, in fact, it amoaats to such, and in tny opinion that is tbe effect in the present case.
