Correspondent Ronsts Civic, Condi tlons in the Capital City of Oregon. Ed. Jeurnal: Since the topic of sprinkling tho streets with oil seems to be on tho string, why not also ex tend consideration of plain sprinkling with water? Oil is good for Califor nia, and is economical there. It may be just as desirable here, but we know that the effects of the water wagon are good here. Let us have more of the latter, while we are waiting for the new-fangled sys tem frpm our neighbor state. No doubt they have made great steps of progress to the south of us, but why not learn to creep before we attempt to walk or even run? Perhaps it will be just as easy to introduce oil sprinkling as the water wagon, but wo should have one or the other. It will be noticed that when a street is sprinkled it is not only cleaner and healthier, but it wears longer. The moisture keeps the dirt and dust in compact form, and thus it not only serves a good sanitary purpose, but forms a comfortable cushion for the vehicles to ride over. Another thing we need as badly as public sprinkling is an ordinance compelling property owners to cut down the grass in tho street in front of their property. Just now the grass is drying up, and In some places It stands three feet high in our streets, brown and laden with dust and dirt, that makes it impossible for pedes trians to cross the street without ruining their clothes and morals, to say nothing of the advantage gained in the way of making a respectable impression upon strangers. No per son would invite visitors to his home and wholly disregard appearances. No one would expectt to welcome guests to a house that had its floors and walls littered with filth and con fusion. Even if such conditions ware tolerated temporarily when alone, if company was expected, and especial ly If It were Invited, there would he a bustling of brooms and dusting cloths to put things Into apple pie order. What is the difference be tween n home and a town? Sliould not the latter have as good manners as tho former? Our city invites guests to its doors, and then its citizens find fault if they do not see fit to remain, for tho reason that our streets are dirty, dusty and untidy. If our household is not in order, have we a right to invito guests? The truth Is our town is not fit to receive strangers. This is a homely, ugly truth staring us In tho face, and about the only way to remedy it Is to clean up and present a respectable appearance. Now, while I respect the stranger and the guest of honor, I still think that our everyday people are entitled to just as good as the visitor. Cleaning up for company is all right, but let us also have it every day, so that every member of the family will be come accustomed to, that condition esteemed next to godliness in every land of civilized habits and customs.

' You Have Always Bought C&&tfJ&s Deafness Cannot lie Cured By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of tho mu cuous lining of tho Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or Imperfect hear ing, and when It is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tubo restored to its normal con dition, hearing will be destroyed ferever: nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mu cous surfaces.

"Such a waste of money," she vould say. "Here's daughter so anxious to tnko music lessons and no piano in tho house. Plenty of noney for tobacco but none for th lngs we need so badly." So tho wall continued. Poor Johu, who un fortunately contracted this social habit when nn unthinking child, had no argument. Ho could Bit and look and sanction her convincing speeches in silence. He regretted the situation brought about without the shadow of a doubt by his habit (according to Mrs. Brown), but was there any help for It? What could he do? His evening smoke he prized above all things. When he tried to "swear off" his habit yelled out for appeasement louder than his wife's arguments. No. There must bo found some other wny to stop this waste. Finally, after exacting a promise from his wife not to speak of his hnblt again for thr.co months, ho dis covered a way to make his habit earn him something. Ho found n good Job for it. Keeping his discovery to himself he proceeded to put Into operation. Ono day Mr. Brown brought homo n package for his wifo and presented it to her after dinner. Mrs. Brown was curious to know what it might contain and you can imagine her surprise and Joy at finding a beautiful ladies' gold watch with a long gold chnin, Just what sho had been wnntlng for years. "Did daughter want a piona?" Yes, daughter did. So, one fine dny up backed the truck and a fine upright piano was placed in tho par lor. This created an Immense amount of curiosity in Mrs. Brown, but true to her promise, sho wns not to speak of these things, becauso John told her It touched tho Bubject of his tobacco habit. Willlo wanted a bicycle to carry papers. So, In a few days tho bicycle was forthcoming. Nor was this nil. Nearly ovory day Mr. Brown brought some nice article for his home. A kitchen treasure, set of knives, forks, spoons, kitchen utensils, cut glass, decorated lamps, dishes, Iron bedstends, ladles' secretary, beautiful reclining couch, book cases, a Set Thomas Cathedral gong, 8-day clock, and many other things wero nddod to tholr little home. Garden hose, rakes, fishing outfits for tho boys, guns and Indian clubs, mndo their mystorious appearance into the Brown home. Tho transformation began to crento talk and tho neighbors wondered where the money came from to furnish up the Brown house In such flno style, with no apparent lncreaso of revenue. The mystery deepened and still no answer. Mrs. Brown had not forgotten her threo months agreement, but the time would bo up soon. Anxiously nwaltlng Its expiration sho suppressed her anima tion and smothered her mountnlnof curiosity. But the transformation was as wonderful as it was myster ious. At last the-day came and John was hacked up against tho wnlland was told to disgorge his information. Judge to her surprise when ho told her tho following stery: "You see, dear one, your talk about my habit so annoyed mo that I tried every way to overcome it. Falling in this I sought out cheaper tobacco. This robbed me of nil tho pleasure and wouldn't work. Then I nccidently happened into Geo. E. Waters' plnco of business and mndo a small purchase. Tho obliging clerk presented me with a coupon. Examining it I perceived a number of them entitled mo to somo differ ent articles and I asked for a list.. Studying this list over I found I could 'gotxfor nothing all thoso articles I have brought homo and more. too. So I Just kept still about my discovery and thereafter bought all my to"baccos at Waters' and soon tho results commenced to appear In filling this homo of ours with theso magnificent presents' I began to wonder if I got nn inferior grade of tobacco becauso of theso freo gifts, but found thnt I got exactly tho same high-grade tobaccos and tho same QUANTITY. I knew then the scheme wns simply ono of dividing profits with the consumer. Tho Waters Profit Shar ing Association, as I found this original and novel plan for doing business, was called, simply worked on the idea that it was hotter to have 700 customers with a 10 per cent profit than ten customers with a 20 per cent profit. So, my denr, I saved my coupons, having In mind with overy clgnr I smoked and with every chew I took, tho happiness and welfnro of my family. Actually my tobneco tasto so much hotter now since the old-tlmo worry about waste of money has been ellmlnnted and blotted out, I consldor tho money well spent and from now on you may examine the lists yourself nnd whatever you pick out I shall bring home. I hope I have brought an argument NOW that will stop all further talk about my wasteful habit." "Well, well, John," cried Mrs. Brown, with her arms about his neck. "You nro Jus't tho dearest man in the world. I knew you had struck something rich. After you commenced to bring homo things tho habit you hnd didn't seem near so bad as before. In fact, after I got my nice watch (horo showing It to John) and my kitchen table and things, I really was glad you did smoke and thought you seemed to enjoy It more than ever. I never dreamed of all theso things being brought about by your tobacco habit. Why, John, I believe It Is really a good thing now. You had better keep right on, for tho more you smoko nnd chew, the more nice presents we get for our house nnd for our own uso. Just bring homo article No. 1S1, the flno sewing machine, when you come. I want to get somo sowing done for summer." MORAL: Don't chldo your husband and brothers for smoking, but chldo them for not bringing you home the Certificates.

CHANGE IN LAWS. Radical Chance in Immigration Laws Has Been Ejected. A radical change In the naturaliza tion Inws has been effected by a re cent act passed by congress and ap proved by the President. Tho act es tablishes a bureau of immigration and naturalization, which Is to bo under the direction and control of the secretary of the commerce and labor department of tho federal gov ernment. For the first tiitfe the federal gov ernment, through an executive of- flco, Is charged with tho general con trol of the naturalization of nliens, and In tho future, ns a preliminary, clerks of courts upon which Jurisdic tion is conferred, aro required to obtain blank forms and other papers from tho executive office. A communication hns been re ceived here, requesting that tho attorney-general of tho stato of Ore gon ndvlse tho courts of tho stato that their naturalization jurisdiction ceases after September 27th, unless they come within tho terms of tho now law. By this now act exclusive jurisdic tion to nnturnllzo aliens Is conferred upon tho following specified ceurts: U. S. circuit courts nnd district courts now existing In tho various states; tho U. S. district courts In tho territories; tho supromo court of tho District of Columbia and tho U.
