Statesman says that at the time of hi:
arrest he was negotiating some heavy
purchases, including some of the bes
farms in Marion county. As his spec

lost our guess. On Saturday last the tempera>

1919. Tuesday and Wednesday were the hot-
test days of the week, with the extreme tenn
perature of 1889. Thursday aud Friday were
warm days, rhe measurement being 1909.
These observations we're taken with the ther-

more so than is usual in this country. In d
residence of eighteen years in Oregon we do

heard of no cases of sunstroke, thing mos
remarkable, when we consider that 90e hca,

A great may admirable actions are
overlooked by US, because they are so
little and common. Take, for in
stance, the mother, who had broken
slumber, if any at all, with the nurs-
ing babe, whose wants must not be dis
regarded; she would fain sleep awhile
when the breakfast hour comes, but
patiently and uucomplainingly she
takes her timely seat at the table,
Though exhausted and weary, she
serves all with a refreshing cup of cof-
fee or tea before she sips it herself,
and often the cup is handed back to be
refiled before she has had time 10
taste her own. Do you hear her
eOnplain-this weary mother - that
her breakfast is cold before she has
time to eat it? And this not for oner
but for every morning, perhaps,
through the year. Do you call this q
small thing2 Try it, and see. Oh I
