Our New Prees.

The rapidly increasing circulation
Of the Ecuo, coupled with a desire on
the part Of its proprietor to keep pace
with the march Of progress, has rem

added to the office. Accordingly We
have purchased a Campbell power
press, the cost Of which, placed in po-
sition and ready for work, will aggrc-
gate $I2oo The press WAS shipped
from New York, via Galveston, on the
fifteenth instant. TO enable us to
meet this additional outlay those Of
our patrons who are in arrears arc
again earnestly requested to call and
make settlement or remit hy letter.
We need your help now md trust that
we shall not ask it in vain.

The newspaper has become the
legitimate inheritpr Of the patronage
of advertisers. 1t offers advantages
that no other vehicle possesses, and it
costs less than most Others. 1t can
not be assumed that the advertising
pages of paper are so carefully read
as the news portions, but 1t has grad
ually educated the reader to look for
what he or she wants in the adverlis-
ing columns, and those who read the
paper quietly at home are far more in
clined to go over their wants and look
where to supply them than the man
on the street, who is probably think
ing more of selling his own goods than
of buying his neighbor's. Then the
scope of this method Of advertising is
almost endless. 1t takes in business
card or two-line notice, or it may
cover an entire page, and there is a
chance for literary display.

The Mississippi Jetty.

Every little while appears in some
paper hostile to the matter of river
improvement, mean little items con-
cerning the alleged failure Of Eads'
jetty system at New Orleans.
The following is no surmlse or
rumor, but fact: On the 18th inst,
the largest ship that ever reached New
Orleans passed successfully through
the channel made by Capt. Eads' jet
ties, and anchored in the stream op-
posite the city. The vessel is the
British steamship .SaUertOtcn, built for
laying cable. She is 4035 tons regis
ter, 33S feet long, % feet beam. and
81 feet G inches deep. When the fact
is noted that before the jetties were
finished vessels drawing over 19 feet
could not get to New Orleans, it will
likewise be seen that the ietties are an
assured success. The same system is
in the process of construction at Cal
weston, Texas. We hope to chronicle,
in the future, the arrival Of vessels Of
deepest draft at Astoria, through the
relief afforded the Columbia bar by the
same process that has resulted in such
splendid success at the Crescent City.

Household Hints.

Potatoes should always be boiled in
two waters. The first water gets
them clean and the other cooks them.
Common Gr wood, when soaked in
petroleum, becomes as durable rs
cedar and nearly as tough as boarding
house beefsteak.
A mixture of glue, gum arabic,
molasses and fluid rubber well boiled
together and allowed to cool, Will keep
chair tides in place.
Two ounces of borax and half an
ounce of alum dissolved in one quart
of lukewarm water will kill roaches.
Drop the reaches into it.
The only way to clean house COM
fortably and thoroughly is to wait un-
til your husband breaks his leg, and
then do it while he is in the hospital.
The only sure way to get clothes
washed perfectly white IL to pat the
boiler, soap, blueing and soda in the
closet and send the clothes II Chi
nese laundry.
Always be around the kitchen on
baking days and let your husband
know it. When the bread turns out
good he will smile sweetly and listen
TO your description of the last milli-
merry opening. When it turns out
bad, Just hint that you need n new
girl.

A Lam Duck.

The mellow sunlight of glorious
October afternoon as it yesterday en-
tered the south windows Of the court
room fell upon 2l7 MongOlians who
with open eyes and mouths stood
stolidly staring st the proceedings in
which two of their number, All Foy
and Lam Duck were charged with
outraging the peace and dignity Of the
state of Oregon by striking, hitting,
asssulting, wounding and injuring
nike Sullivan, at whose instance the
suit was brought. The testimony was
voluminous and conflicting, but his
honor solved the problem by discharg-
ing All Foy, and holding Lam Duck
in 81, 900 bonds to await the action Of
the grand jury.

THE BABY.

Who is it coos Just like a dove?
Who is it that we dearly love
The brightest blessing from above?
The baby.
While silent watch the angels keep,
Who smiles so sweetly in his sleep,
And oft displays its dimples deep?
The baby.
Who is it keeps us all awake
Throughout the night till day doth
break,
Because it has a stOmach-ache
The baby.
When mamma goes outside the door,
Who is il that doth madly roar.
And like o. Twist. cries out for more
The baby.
Who is il swallows every pin.
Great chunks Of glass and scraps Of
tin.
And then yells all The time like sin?
The baby.
Who Is it that may grow up mad,
And make his mother sick and sad,
Then thrash his kind. indulgent dad {?
The baby.

Oysters Will Do It.

''Pll cure any cough you ever heard
of, and with one of the simplest RENE
dies you ever saw," said lady vocal
ist of considerable reputation on both
sides Of the Atlantic. ''It's oysters
Just plain, simple, everyday raw oys-
ters. I've sung fourteen years here
and in the old countries, and you may
imagine that the climate he's often got
the better of my lungs, but l rely upon
oysters and they can be depended on.
Ny husband told me of Ibis kind of
medicine, and l don't know how many
years he has used them. They act
Just as bene6cially on my children,
and the next time you have a cough
60 to the oyster bar instead of the
drug store"
