Hatbands and Headaches.

Cheap hats may be good enough, y
said dispensary physician to me-" but
think some action must soon be taken
to suppress cheap hatbands, just as the
board of health now moves against un-
wholesome meats or adulterated milk.
'Within two weeks have been called
upon to prescribe for seven men afflicted
with raging headaches, due in every in
stance to poisonous coloring matter ex-
tracted by perspiration from the lining
bands of their hats and absorbed through
the open pores of their foreheads. What
these noxious dyes are 1 have had nc

METHODS And RESULTS.

The state of Washington has devel-
oped much more. rapidly than Oregon,
says an exchange, and the reason is not
far to seek. They never let an oppor-
tunity to advertise their resources slip,
while we have lost our birthright as
leader of the Pacific coast states through
allowing each and every chance of max
ing our unparalleled advantages known
to the outside world pass heedlessly by.
An example of Washington enterprise
and Oregon apathy is to be found in the
museum at Dundee, Scotland, which is
second to few in the world. In the
museum, side by side, are the exhibits
of Oregon and Washington. The latter
is represented by a magnificent display
of corn, wheat, oats, plums, peaches,
apples, grapes, ETC., besides large case
of native woods, and the former is repre-
sented by nothing more nor less than
group of Indian arrow heads. Which
exhibit is likely to be productive of the
best results? Washington invites people
from all parts of the civilized world to
come and settle, and SOW, and reap, and
help unearth her undeveloped treasures,
while Oregon slumbers. Small wonder
that we lag behind our younger, but
more fiery, ambitious and progressive

The Banner Baby Year.

In 1885,. which was considered re-
markably prolific year, the number of
births recorded in this city was &c, ,296,
an increase of nearly 1000 over 1887,
while the regular rate of increase from
year to year is about 900.
The records of 1891 promise to COM
pletely eclipse these figures. From Jan
to June the births registered at the
health Office numbered 1897, while for
a corresponding period of 1889 10,7s5
was the number, an increase for the five
months of 2,544. Physicians say that
there will be a remarkably large number
of happy families before the year 1893
comes to greet us.
The health Office has also noticed the
large increase in births for this year anG
will take extra steps to procure thor
ough registration. Advices received at
this Office show that the increase is true
of the whole country. An extraordinary
large number of birthdays will date

One Cent Damages for a minister.

The case of the Rev. e. S. Huntress
against William L. Breckenridge on the
charge of slander was continued at the
superior court in Northampton recently,
the minister asking $40, 900 for his al
legged slandered reputation. This case is
peculiar one, as it is rarely that a
clergyman brings such a suit against any
of his parishioners. The history of the
case goes back to April, 1889, when the
Rev. Mr.. Huntress was preaching at
Ware for the Centre church He proved
an erratic preacher, lively talker and
inclined to fire sharp shots at his people.
To use his own expression, he ''plowed
deep" in his preaching, so that Deacon
Anderson was led to exclaim: s'Why, he
pounded us so much that every one of US
was mellow all over His metaphors
took personal twist in his preaching.
The church got into a row in which the
defendant took sides against the min
lister, so that he was designated by Hun
tress as the dominating personality in
the contest. After Mr.. Huntress was
dismissed the contest was still kept up.
The jury gave Huntress one cent dam

The East Oregonian says: The men re-
;sponsible for the good assessment in
Umatilla county lean toward the ''single
tax, which THE CHRONICLE does not be-
lieve in because it is too dogmatic to
understand it.
To the CHRONICLE this is no commen-
dation. The nearer an Oregon assessor
leans to the single tax the further he
leans away from the law he has sworn to
follow. The nearer he leans to the
single tax the less will be the amount of
personal property assessed, and the
greater the tax on lands; for the single
tax crank does not believe in taxing
money and bonds or any other kind of
personal property. The nearer an as
SCISSOR. leans to the single tax the higher
the tax on the farmer, and as a conse-
Yuence the more unjust and unequal is
the assessment.

Now that the sssitting on the stoop7

Turkish costume endeavors to keep the
emperor from too close contact with the
plague stricken man by gently pushing
him away, but it is of no avail. The
brilliant trappings and rich colors of the
officers uniforms throw into yet stronger
contrast the sickening spectacle of the

took three men twelve years, working
steadily upon it. The wonder grows
when one thinks of the marvellous blend

recently the hero of an adventure rival
ing the extravaganzas of Jules Vernes
and Haggard, but which is vouched for
by several other well-known reliable
gentlemen. Colonel Heptherone, in COM
pany with three others, was endeavoring
to force a small stream of the class
known as lost rivers, as it loses itsself in
the earth after a run of few miles.
This stream, known as Pilgrim 8 Friend,
ir very rapid, running downward with
great speed, and is at all times consider
ed dangerous to cross, but, being in
haste, Heptheronc and his party resolv-
ed to try it.
Heptherone led the way and had only
proceeded few feet when his horse was
caught in the current and borne away
before the others could lend anysassist-
ance. Heptherone soon lost his hold on
the animal and gave himself up for lost
on approaching the sink-hole through
which the stream looses itself. He
made an attempt to catch the earth as
he went under, but harrsed by the
powerful suction, vanished with the
stream. He became unconscious at this

rise suddenly to the surface of the water,
and putting out in their boat, rescued
the colonel, whom it proved to be though
their boat was nearly capsized by the
volume of water that seemed to burst at
this moment from the bottom of the
pond. The spot where the Pilgrim g
Friend loses itself is over three miles
from the lake, with which it has no Wis
ible connection, and there can scarcely
be doubt of Colonel Heptherone having
this incredible journey under ground

uses of Hot wafer

Hot water is one of the best among
simple remedies, says The Ladies'
Home Journal. For instance, head
ache almost always yields to the
simultaneous application OF hot water
TO the feet and back of the neck.
A towel folded several times, and
dipped in hot water, and quickly
wrung out and applied over the tooth
ache or neuralgia, will generally af-
ford prompt relief.
A strip OF flannel, or napkin folded
lengthwise, and dipped in hot water
and wrung out, and then applied
round the neck of child that has the
Group, will sometimes bring relief in
ten minutes.
Hot water taken freely half an hour
before bedtime, is helpful in the case
of constipation and has a most sooth-
ing effect upon the stomach.
A goblet of hot water taken just af-
ter rising, before breakfast, has cured
thousands of Indigestion, and no
simple remedy is more widely re-

A Brides First Lesson.

A brides first lesson, says The La
dies Home Journal, is to respect
the extreme sensitiveness of her hus
band, who doesn't want people tO
know he has just been married; con-
sequently she will be wise il after hel
first journey, she assumes gown
that has seen wear; if she will forget
to look around in a startled manner
whenever her husband is gone from
her side, as it is not likely that he is
either going to be lost or stolen. The
next thing is not to kiss him or hold
his hand in public, or call him "Dar-
ling" Any woman can make a man
feel her love without making him ri
diculous.
Another thing for her to learn is,
when she is at hotel, not to grow
confidential with the chambermaid,
not to give her pit ce OF her we'd
ding-cake and tell her all about the
marriage ceremony, and tell her how
she looked. You think this is never
done? Ask at some large hotel. And
she shouldn't giggle or look surprised
when she gets q letter from her
mother addressed to her in her mar
ried name. Men are particularly sen
sitiYe creatures about some things,
and they are rather given to think a
woman don't want a name when she
acts in this way.
