Occasionally some doctor or health faddist takes con
siderable trouble to show mankind how to live to be one
hundred years old. Just why anyone should want to live
to that age is not explained. When the body is worn out
and the mind weakened it is fit and proper that we should
step down and out. It is after all not the length of life
that makes it desirable, but rather good health and pleas
ant lines during the years we are on earth.
The birds are somewhat used to snow now, but at the
same time a few crumbs left where they can get them will
not be overlooked by the little helpless fellows. If you
want to have a little private dinner party that you will
thoroughly enjoy, set the table on the back porch or some

"The public knows Mr. Ford chiefly as the inventor
of an automobile, which, in the language of one satirical,
has made walking a luxury, and of a futile scheme to
bring peace to a war-racked continent.''
After accounting for the adoption of his peace scheme
by the inexperience of Mr. Ford in world affairs the
writer closes with this interesting touch and tribute:
"If I read him aright, Ford will not relinquish his
peace propaganda, but it will take other forms. Mean
while, he will devote his attention to his business, now
grown to the proportions of a little world in itself. For
recreation he will expand the work on his big farm near
Detroit, where his principal crop is free wild birds. It
is planted with trees and shrubs specially chosen with
reference to the tastes of! his feathered guests, for whom
he has built houses and artificial nests on scientific lines,
and before whom he daily spreads viands as carefully
selected as those for his own table, while their drinking

President Sproule, of the Southern Pacific says the
story that his company will build a road from Coos Pay
to Eureka, California, is false. With all deferanco to
Mr. Snroule's supposed knowledge of the subject hi;
most decidedly mistaken. His company will build that
piece of road for the simple reason that it cannot afford
not to do so, or to allow some other road to got a water
level haul around the Siskiyous instead of over them.
Yes, the Southern Pacific will build from Coos Pay to
Eureka sometime.
