There is no virtue in a dawdling saunter, The slow and languid drag- glug of one foot after the other which some people call walking would tire an athlete. It utterly exbausta a weak person, and that is the reason why many delicate persons think they can not walk. To derive any benefit from the exercise it is necessary to walk with a light, elastic step which swings the weight of the body so easily from one leg to the other that its weight is not felt and which produces a healthy glow, showing that the slug gish blood Is stirred to action in the most remote veins.

To Save Money. Mark Twain's rules for sating money when one was tempted to part with some of his treasure were simple.

To save It all count sixty-five Watch Your Money Grow FIRST NATIONAL BANK, TILLAMOOK, ORE, Shooting the 8eal. Seals are caught in a variety of ways, but they are very shy creatures and the greatest caution must be exercised in approaching them. Even when they have been struck by harpoon or rifle bullet the blow must be fatal and death instantaneous, or the animal will drop into its bole In the ice and be seen no more. Indeed, the fact that a seal sel dom moves far from its bole adds con siderably to the hunter's difficulties. The plan usually adopted by Eskimo hunters is to build up a kind of tent sledge. The sides and front are mask ed with bearskin, the top with the pelt of a bare. The native hides within thia novel tent and inch by inch propels himself over the ice till be is near his quarry. The rifle with which be slays bls seal is brought into use through a loopbole in the sledge covering. Real Herd Luck. “Speaking of hard luck," remarked i an official, “I bad some bard luck once during my early days." "Elucidate,” said another official. ”1 bad Just invested my last $5 in a meal ticket." "Tee, year’ "As I started down the street e gnat of wind tore the ticket from my band. A lumberjack was passing, wearing heavy, hobnailed boots.” “Tee; go on.” "And he stepped on my ticket and punched out $4 86.”— Kansas City Journal » H 1 A Touch of Human Nature. The doors which open from the side walk Into the lobby of a big building are heavy ones and are very hard to open. Yesterday a little hunchback stepped out of an elevator on the first floor, followed by a great big man. The hunchback reached the doors first and threw himself against one. Al though be pushed with all his might, he couldn't open It Chagrined, he step ped back, and the big man stepped up. Noticing the look of humiliation on the face of the little fellow, the big man said: “I’ve got a sore wrist. Come on; let’s see if we both can’t open it.” The hunchback and the big man both pushed on the door, and of course it opened. The two went out smiling. The big man bad no sore wrist at all. Two or three people looking on felt like cheering for him.—New York Tele graph. ATTORNEY & COUN8EL- Tillamook Block, Tillamook, Or. Room No. 261, Garibaldi.

Watch auy flesh eating animal when It la attacking Its prey or watch two animals having a fight to the death. You will notice one remarkable fact, and that Is that they strike for the lungs. Most people, of course, are well aware where their own lungs are. but they haven't the slightest idea about auy other lungs. Anlmnls In stlnctlvely know. however, the pool- tlon of the luugs of almost every oth er animal. When a tiger or a lion at- tacks a man It does Its best to get Just below the shoulder blades. If It strikes without warning you will al ways find that Its powerful paws have torn right through to the lungs. A cat has just the same Instinct It goes for the lungs—the vital spot- just the same at Its bigger brothers. Watch It stalk a sparrow and you will see bow cleverly It maneuvers so as to get behind the unfortunate bird and pounce on Its back, where the lungs are.—London Graphic. r L. LOR-AT-LAW, Bay City. Mecca’s Polluted Well. A scientific analysis has been made of the Zem-Zem water from the sacred well at Mecca, which, according to the Arabs, is the well that the angel show ed to Hagar and whose water saved the life of Ishmael. After reading the results of the analysis one cannot won der that pilgripia who drink the water frequently are attacked by cholera. The specimen examined contained six- ty-nlne grains of chlorine to the gallon. Water which contains so little as nine gruins of chlorine to the gallon is ordi narily regarded as scarcely fit for hu man consumption. Moreover, in the case of the Zem-Zem well it is believed the chlorine originates from the cus tom of pouring the water over the pil grims and allowing It to run back into the well. The sacred water was found to possess an extraordinary degree of "hardness." three times as great as that of average water. It also held twenty times as much ammonia compounds as drinking water should contain. HENDERSON JOHN Timber. Flags at Half Mast. Did you ever stop to think what con nection there could be between a flag that was not properly hoisted and the death of a great man? Ever since flags were used in war it has been the custom to have the flag of the su(*erior or conquering nation above that of the Inferior or vanquished. When an ar my found Itself hopelessly beaten it hauled its flag down far enough for the flag of the victors to be placed above it on the same pole. This was a token not only of submission, but of respect In tbose days when a famous soldier died flags were lowered out of respect to his memory. The custom long ago passed from purely military usage to public life of all kinds, the flag flying at half mast being a sign that the dead man was worthy of universal respect The space left above it is for the flag of the great conqueror of all, the Angel of Death. —New York Sun. Bedouin’s Three Treasures. There are always three things up permost in the Bedouin's mind—his gun. his horse and his wives. The most modern arms of precision have 'replaced the primitive spear which, until a few years ago, was the usual weapon. The Bedouin Is quick to reel lie the efficiency of modern weapons and soon becomes ac expert marks man. So much has the spear fallen out of favor that the bearer of one would be ridiculed in bls own camp. Such pride has the Bedouin in his weapons that even in his leisure hours he alts fully armed, examining and cleaning each piece tn turn, making himself accustomed to carrying their weight No youth considers himself a man until he has fully equipped him self. A sword is much esteemed, but generally only as an heirloom and as |ivlug distinction to the bearer. There are to be found many excellent blades among the sheiks, some with a his tory of hundreds of years, having been handed down from father to sou.— Wide World Magazine. Hillsboro.

The Judge's sons, seeing Slntram in process of be ing saddled, pre-empted the remaining horses snd rode off. The little negro considered the matter for a moment and rode Slntram off. thus forcing the judge to take a hurried and. as he con sidered IL an entirely unnecessary walk of half a mile.
