How Calico Got Its Name. Smiths Researcher.
SniisH ? heseAEOHe'


 The derivation of this word is very interesting, as of such an ancient date is its origin. Mrs. Leonowens says in her "Travels in India" that in the year 1498, just ten months and two days after leaving the port st Lisbon, Vasco de Cana landed on the coast of Malabar at Calicut, or more properly, Kale Rhoda, "City of the Black God dess." Calicut was at that period not only very ancient seaport, but an ex- tensive territory, which, stretching along the western coast of southern India, reached from Bombay and the adjacent islands to Cape Comorin. It was at an early period so famous for its weaving and dyeing of cotton cloth that its name became identified with the manufactured fabric, whence the name calico. It is now generally ad- mitted that this ingenious art orig mated in India in remote ages, and from that country found it's way to Egypt.
 It was not until the middle ot the seventeenth century that calico print ing was introduced into Europe. A knowledge ot the art was acquired by some of the servants of the Dutch East India company and carried to Holland, whence it was introduced in London in the year 1876. It is sur- prising for grown-up children, as well as our young folks, to learn that "Pliny as early as the first century mentions in his natural history that there existed in Egypt a wonderful method of dyeing white cloth" Calico cannot be despised when it boasts of such antiquity. The shoddy makeup of the present day may look down with contempt upon the calico dress, but what kind of lineage has it? the calico dress can proudly ask.

Santa Fe vestibule Trains.

The vestibule train is new factor in western railroad transportation. It Is claimed for these trains that on &C., count of their being connected by steel hoods all danger of telescoping in case of accident is removed, the train being practically one long car. It is certain that the oscillation of the cars is greatly reduced, and 1t is also certain that the vestibule trains afford the greatest comfort yet known to travel ara. The adoption of this style of train by the Chicago, Santa Fe & Cal ifornia railway between Kansas City and Chicago, is . strong bid for the passenger traffic between the west and Chicago. This new road Is in many particulars ahead of any of its older competitors, and will undoubtedly be the popular road to Chicago.

The women of New York, says the
 Woman of Fashion, are all crazy about new drug that has lately become popular. It was first introduced by a famous female physician here, but the news spread like wild fire, and some of the druggists are going to make their fortunes. This sovereign simple has, she ayers, the effect of fascinating the consumers' husbands and keeping them most con- tentedly at home with their wives in the evening. The poor chorus girls are naturally in despair, and bar busi- ness at the clubs is reported to be steadily dropping of.

It is a Positive Luxury

To brush the teeth with SOZO- DON'T, so fragrant and refreshing is it, and so pleasant is the taste it leaves in the mouth after the operation. Then how gratifying is the effect and how complacent feels the beholder who views in the glass row of worries rendered spotless by this benign and delightful toilet article. Only a few drops on the brush is needed for an ablution, and yet it is wondrously eff fective.

AWAY BEHIND.

II Is now about one quarter of cen
tury since the civil war. The most of
the important actors in that mCmora-
bic civil convulsion have passed beyond
the "jar of words and clasp of arms, "
and yet there are croal<ers and sore
heads around Lebanon, who never
srnelt the smoke Of battle or heard the
roar of conflict, tnat seem TO he pro
foundly ignorant that peace is made,
the rebels all living IN peace and qui-
etutle, and that the bloody chasm has
been bridged. The brave Union sol
slier who fought for his flag, who stood
manfullv to his post, is generally the
very soul of peace; he knows how 10
appreciate the valor of Southern sol
diers, and to accord at least honest
motives TO those who wore the gray.
Nineteen out Of every twenty who
were in the rebel army are glad in
their souls that the American Union
was preserved, are glad the negroes
are free, and to-day if it were necessary
would fight for the American flag with
a heroisn and devotion second onone.
He who led the Union army TO victory
voiced the sentiment of every friend
of humanity and of his country when
he said in his first letter of aeee ptance
of the nomination for the Presidency,
sIIet us have peace"

FOREST FfR ES.


The forest fires have been playing
havoc with the timber in most of the
eastern part Of Linn county for the
past two weeks. The entire valley has
been beclouded with the smoke, and
part Of the time the air almost sitting.
From rellable information we learn
that there has been a wanton and
wicked destruction of valuable timber
in many portions of the mountains
This wholesale destruction of one Of
cur great sources of wealth should be
stopped "peaceahly If we can, aud
ioreibly If we must.n The man who

portant agency in commerce and enter
prise. The protection of the State 10
guard this inestinahle wealth Is re-
quired The Legislature enacts laws
to protect other property, TO protect
game Of every kind, 10 protect lands
and houses and individual rights. But
the Legislature of Oregon should enact
law to save her forests from this wan
ton annual destruction. The scoun-
sirel who fires hay-riek Is punished
by just Imprisonment; but the indi-
vidual who fires a forest is free to do
50. There should be stop to this,
and an adequate penalty to every Of
fender. The Legislature should pro-
vide and the courts should enforce.
The person who wautonly fires a
forest tree, and thereby causes the con-
suming os the cabin of settler, with
perhaps the life Of an inmate Is in fact
an incendiary, aud the crime of arson,
in its just degree, should be charged
against him.
The sacrifice should be stopped. The
people demand il; the Legislature
should provide for IT. The advertising
to the world of the wonders and beau
ties and surprising worth of Oregon,
by the many from distant countries
who come here toview these, is spoiled
by this obscuration. The thing to do
Is TO stop 1t.
