Grains of Wisdom.

1t IS Impossible TO be a hero, In any.
thing, unless one is first a hero in faith.
You may take the greatest trouble
and by turning 1t around find JOY on the
other side.
Recollect every day the things seen,
heard, or read which make an addition
to your understanding.
Custom will often blind one to the
good as we'll as the evil effects of any
long established system.
The more able man is, if he makes
ill-use of his abilities, the more danger
GUS will he be to the commonwealth.
We have right to keep what belongs
to us, but no arguments can justify our
retaining the property of another.
1t is better to be a beggar than an ig.
norant person; for beggar only wants
money. but an ignorant person wants
humanity.
If a fool be associated with wise
man, even all his life, he will perceive
the truth as little as the spoon receives
the taste of the soup.
To be happy the passion must be
cheerful and gay, not gloomy and mel
ancholy; propensity to hope and JOY
is real riches; one to fear and sorrow.
real poverty.
He that rightly understands the rea-
s0nableness and excellency Of charity
will know that it can never be excusable
to waste any of our money in pride and
folly.
True wealth consists in health, vigor
and courage, domestic quiet, concord,
public liberty, plenty of all that is
necessary and contempt of all that is
superduous.
Beware how you allow words to pass
for more than they are worth and bear
in mind what alteration is sometimes
produced in their current value by the
course of time.
Hatred does not cease by hatred at
any time; hatred ceases by love-this is
an old rule. Let man overcome anger
by love; let him overcome evil by good;
ct him overcome the greedy by liberal
ity, the liar by truth!
All that we are is the result Of what
we have thought; 1t is founded on our
thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts.
II a man speaks or acts with. an evil
thought. pain follows him as the wheel
follows the fool of the OK that draws the
cart.
When the learned man drives away
vanity by earnestness, he, the wise,
climbing the terraced heights of wisdom
looks down upon the fools serene he
looks upon the toiling crowd, as one that
stands on mountain looks down upon
them that stand on the plain.
Moral beauty is the basis of all true
beauty. The foundation is somewhat
covered and yelled in nature; art brings
it out and gives it more transparent
forms. 1t is here that art, when it
knows well it's powers and resources,
engages In struggle with nature in
which it may have the advantage. ri
We never think that such little thing
Can ever such tremendous sequence bring,
Until too late, and then we backward turn
The paRes that we have filed, and dimly burn,
The light Of other days in vain regrets
For opportunities gone BY. The spirit frets
Against It's destiny. and deep within #
Our hearts We mourn for what we might have
n been. ~ ss .s s5# ~ St

a Ready Wit,

"Theres a peculiar motion, pecu.
liar to woman alone" said Edgar A.
Elliott, the philosopher, toast. Louis
Republic reporter, as he pointed to q
frightened female on the sidewalk.
"That woman is frightened because
she fears those prancing horses may
jump upon the sidewalk and crush
her beneath their iron-shod hoois.
But what does she do under the cir
cumstances? Does she, with woman's
ready wit, climb that fence or get be-
hind that big hogshead?" Nc
"No, sir; as you see, she is des
perately engaged in pressing the
palm of her right hand overher right
ear and looking frightened. Her OBJ
ject in standing sc still and retaining
that position of her right hand
against her right a is to escape
from the crushing hoofs OF that big
team. But that's only a specimen
of this so-called 'woman's wit"

"GOod and WeSty."

To the true born westerner, in
whom the instinct of moving on to
find a more desirable country never
dies, not even the Pacific ocean can
be barrier. A man of this class, who
had lived successfully in a number of
states and territories between his
native Ohio and his present home in
California, II day had a revival of
his migratory longing. He must
"pack his grip" and ego west"
But how can you get any farther
west than California? he was asked
"Pshaw..' he answered. There's
plenty of west left, all down through
Mexican California and South Ameri-
ca. There's Peru, now: I'd give a
deal to see the mines down there. /
tell you sir" he cried, warming with
his subject, lit must be real and
westy down in Peru!"-True Flag.

How to Take Soda,

From the Boston Gazette
Good soda should be slipped; quick,
ly drinking off the ~effervescence,
which is mere foam, an enterval of a
minute or two should be allowed be-
fore the last half of the glass is TAX
en-. Clerks should know this and give
the customer time, without warming
by looks or actions that they are
expected to leave in the shortest
possible order after boiling their So
da and paying for it. A glass OF So
da is a refreshing stimulus, better
than food in a very hot noon; but
rapidly tossed off, as most people
take it, is a recipe for cramps and in
digestion. If it is poor soda, tasting
OF metal with the silver worn off, or
standing in silver too long favored
with syrups made from oranges or
lemons whose musty taste is plain
to all refined palates, the less one
takes the better for life and health.

Humor of the Census.

The census taking reminds me OF
an old story that is forgotten by
people now. On the printed blanks

One OF the papers were returned
with the startling information that
the father was 100 years old and the
mother 112. The city fathers hast

they died long ago. "Then what do

EXPERIMENTAL STATION NoTEs.-The
winds have been quite regular during the
last week averaging about 200 miles per day.
The barometers indicate light precipitation.
On the 4th and 5th insts the thermometers
stood at S3 degrees, sreatest temperature
during the day; and Al degrees, the least
temperature during the night. :. The chem
ical department is now sinking wooden cases
in the ground for plant tests of different
kinds. These experiments will be, no
doubt, interesting to observers. -. The ex-
pertinent department. is now planting the
''cow pea" SO much praised in the South for
food for man and animals, and as a fertilizer
for poor and worn out soils. -. From the
prospects pairs and apples will be plentiful
The lawns are being clipped to add to
their beauty, and vines are being planted
here and there to add to the increasing
beauty of the grounds.

New SrEAMER.-AJ the regular monthly
meeting of Young America Engine Com
spany, No l, held last Monday evening the
matter of purchasing steam fire engine for
the Corvallis Fire Department was brought
up and discussed and it was decid ed to make
an effort to raise the necessary funds, about
$4,000 being the amount required. A COM
mittee consisting of M. S. Neugass, j. r.
Bryson, Jessie Spencer, Dan Cameron, j.
o. Wilson, Zephin Job and Nj. S. Wood
cock were appointed to canvass the town for
su descriptions, and should they meet with
sufficient encouragement the old hand en-
CINE will be sold aud the proceeds applied
towards the purchase of the new steamer.
Hon. John Burnett has headed the list with
the liberal subscription of 500. That bet
ter fire protection is needed in Corvallis
must be generally admitted. The fact that
the rate of insurance is much higher here
than in other places. of the same size is con-
yincing evidence in itself Of the need of a
better fire apparatus, to say nothing of the
practicability of hand as compared.
with that of steamer. Now that the ball
has started to roll keep it going and let
citizens subscribe literally when the COM
mlttee come around. Let US have the
steam fire engine.

A USEFUL METHOD ADOPTED
The Oregonian of a late date tells
of movement begun in Island
Co., Wash, which the writer says,
sis likely to spread until within
the boundaries of Oregon and
Washington will be found the
greatest and most prosperous ag-
ricultural population to be within
the limits of like area in the
world" This refers to the division
Of the best sections of farm land
into 5 and 10-acre tracts which, he
says, are being taken up by an in
telligent class Of agriculturists who
recognize not only the profitable,
but the comfortable features of a
little farm we'll titled. The sub
division of the big donation land
claims into 10-acre tracts was first
introduced by the Oregon, Land
Co., of Salem, and the adoption of
this method in a neighboring state
is evidence of the soundness of the
plan. 1w

desires to call the attention of the public to
the fact that there are five first-class work
men employed in his shop and that he is
prepared to do blacksmithing and repairing
of all kinds on short notice. He has been
in the business since 1865, and has run the
same shop he now owns for the last twenty
years. He makes speciality of horse shoe

line he put on lO1 shoes in six days .last

NEW PUMP.-On Thursday of this week,
the Corvallis Water Company ordered,
through John Barrett, Portland agent for
Henry r. Worthington, manufacturer of
steam pumps at Chicago, a new double act
ing plunger Worthington pump of the
Irregular Patterh,' to take the place of the
old pump which is of the same make. The
new pump will be nearly double the size of
the cid pump and will have a capacity of
raising 500 gallons of water per minute or
l,27l, 700 gallons every twenty four hours.
The pump is to be shipped by fast freight
and is expected to arrive in Corvallis in
about twenty days, when it will be iname
diately placed in position. The company
will then have ample facilities for supplying
an abundance of water for all demands of
consumers for some time to come.

OPERATION PERFoRNlED.--Last
Monday DR.. Logan of Philomath,
assisted by Drs. Applewhite d
Penots, performed a difficult sur
gical operation upon young man
named Geo. Woodruff living at
Beaver creek about ten miles
southwest of Corvallis. Several
years ago Woodruff received a
wound in the head which caused
an ossifed formation near the tenn
pie, pressing the skull against the
brain This has, since receiving
the, wound, caused him a great
deal of suffering from epileptic
convulsions and blindness. The
doctors performed a successful
operation; and the young mans
sight was fully restored and at last
accounts he was getting along
nicely.
