SALEM UNSIGHTLY PLACE.
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.

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.

The Manner In Which Mrs. Brown Discovered
The Tobacco Habit To be a
Good Thing.
John's tobacco habit had been bothering Mrs. Brown for a long time. "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. You can have exactly what Mrs. Brown had if you remember tho WnterB Now Pro
fit Sharing Association.
