1, Tillamook Headlight. January Increase of P.O. Business. Some idaa of the increase of the biisinee« of the Tillamook Post- , office cun ba gathered from the sale ■ of stamps for the month of Decern ber, compar'd with same month of the previou*year. In December, 1912, the «ale* amounted to $709.92. and for December, 1913, they increased to $1,150.82, a gain of 1650.70. Part of! this increase of t usinese was due 1 to the parcels post system, the Tillainohl' P.O. having done a larg | business with parcels. Po*lma*te | Baker and hie atatt had a strenuous time with the extra amount of busi- ne«s, and by working late at nights the holiday mxil was handled with dispatch, the only inconvenience to the public was in the extra time it took to sort the mail after it arrived in this city.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there i» at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, und that is Catarrh. Hill's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. HaP’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation ot the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work.

HUMAN HEREDITY LOOKS LIKE A SEA OF ICE. Curious Lak* of Soda In th* Wild* of East Africa. It It Confined, So It I* Asserted, t Likeness to Parents. Lake Magndl. lu British East Africa. Is famous for Its vast deposits of soda. Until recently few people have seen Its shores, for It Iles In tbe midst of a bar ren and waterless district, but the rail way that was started a few years ago by an EngILsb company opens the way for travelers to this curious natural phenomenon. A recent visitor describes It In the London Field: Ordinarily It looks as if it bad frozen and as If snow had then fallen upon it. partially thawed and frozen again. | Tbe temperature gives the He to this appearance of roughened ice, for the beat is extreme and at midday almost unbearable. Tbe soda burns tbe feet even through a boot, and tbe sharp, projecting spikes, which resemble boar frost will pierce any except tbe thick est sole. After the rains there is a layer of water over tbe greater part of tbe lake, which turns a lovely pink color. By moonlight the scene Is weird I ly beautiful. Tbe lake contains at least 200,000,000 tons of crystalline substance, composed almost equally of carbonate and bicar I bonate of soda. Surface and under i ground streams of saturated soda liq uor continually feed it. Tbe present supply of soda Is enormous, and as fast as it is removed a new surface, formed from the “mother liquid” be neath. replaces It. Natives have col lected soda from the same spot year I after year without making tbe slight I est difference in the abundance of the I supply. There are few subjects on whirl much “acientlflc" nonsense Is tai mid written ns on heredity. Not v much Is known of it as regards plal less of animals and almost nothing regards humanity. To read books heredity, especially those of the I genic society.

A lawyer's more often wants to be a soldier < artist than a lawyer, notwlthstan the environment, mid it is so with professions. The exceptions seel be due to training and Influence, n hereditary transmission. A superficial llkeuess to pal seems hereditary, but thnt Is all we can ns.se:t. and that outward ness by no means infers an im likeness.
