full arms spoils one of the rarest of

are as distinctive as eyes and mouths.

they not possess sufficient strength
of mind TO have the courage of convic-

see what he could do among the farmers
of that State. Reaching town in the
central part of the State, he went to q

The art Of producing life-like pictures
has been making wonderful strides with
in the past few years. The old daguereo-
types of our fathers times no more COM
pare with the handsome photo
graph of to-day than does the
stage coach OF those days with
the Pullman palace car of the present
time. In no part of the United States
has that wonderful art advanced faster
than in Oregon. In Portland We can
boast o an artist that leads the profess
sion in all its branches. We refer to
w. H. Towne. of the San Francisco
Gallery. His work has been examined
by lovers Of art from all over the Union
and they unhesitatingly award the palm
to him for good work. Mr.. Towne has
made photographs for actors, artists and
gentlemen of travel, and is constantly
receiving orders for more pictures from
the same negatives, as nowhere else in
their travels can they procure so good
work. The latest is an order from Mr..
Glenn. Studebaker, proprietor of the
famous Stndebaker Wagon Company, of
Indianapolis, indiana, who had six
dozen photographs Of himself taken by
Mr.. Towne while here last winter. So
pleased was Mr.. Studebaker with the
work that he last week forwarded an
order to this gallery for twenty dozen
more from the same negative. Comment
is unnecessary.

HEN's EGGs TWELVE HUNDRED YEARS
OLD.At st. Eloi, in the Fanbourg st.
Antoine in France, nestfuI of eggs was
found under the ruins of the old palace
where King Dagobert lived. SO they
knew that 1900 years before some hen
had stolen her nest, just as onr hens do
nowadays, and had been disturbed, and
left the nest before the eggs had been sat
upon. The workmen who, in clearing
the ruins to build the old church that
still stands there. had found the nest,
were going to throw away the eggs, but
the Able Denis, who was then curate of
the parish, remembering that wheat had
grown from grains that were found with
the mummies in Egyptian tombs. which
must have been 5000 years old, thought
there might be life in these old eggs. He
set them under one of his good, moth
erly old hens, and sure enough, in
twenty-one days she came off the nest
with fine brood of king Dagobert''
chickens, as they have ever since been
called. The breed has been carefully
kept ever since, and the Dagobert fowls
have SO increased that the abbe of the
parish has organized sale of 'sKing
Dagobert'' eggs for the benefit of the
poor of his parish.
