Rena's Dream.


"Have you paid back that money you
borrowed last fall John?' asked Mrs
Mason as her husband arose from the
breakfast table.
"What money!" asked Mr.. Mason
carelessly
"That which you borrowed of Mr.. Park
hurst"
"Oh, that. No, it was only ten dollars. ~
Eyes, 1 know, but You promised to pay
it back the next month you know"
"Well I haven't had it to spare; be-
sides he doesn't need it. He would only
. lend it to some one else, for all he does
is to loan money and reckon interest. It
wouldn't be any great loss to him if 1
never paid it. L only get seventy-fve
dollars month, and his income must be
nearly that week, the old skinhintr'
''But you know you said it was great
favor to you when he loaned it and that
YOU would have had no end of trouble
about that law suit if you had not got
some money to help you out. You know
John, You might want another favor some
time. and 1 really can't go out feeling
comfortable and face people whom We
owe. [ don't want anything bought for
me or the children till L can feel that it is
my own. Ihave been living off other peo-
pies money so much that really have
lost my self respect, and the little woman
sighed and truly looked as if her desire
to keep from eating victuals bought on
time had made her thin and weak

to borrow l guess" and Mr.. Mason hur-
rien oat to escape any more preaching"
rs he called it. But he had to dodge
down side street to escape something
else. 1t was the genial face of Mr. Park
hurst, who when he saw Mr.. Mason hur-
rying from him said to himself, II
wouldn't have Mason's feelings now for
ten times the amount he owes me-"
Mrs. Mason started the children Rena
and Tom of to school. then after putting
d things to rights she also dressed and
went out on the street. She had seen her
husband evade MIR. Parkhurst and feeling
so much ashamed had resolved that that
! debt should be paid. She had no money.
but a ring that had belonged to her in
her girlhood, brought ten dollars at the
pawn brokers.
Mrs. Mason Cancelled the debt and ask
ed that the receipt be sent to her hus-
band; then she hurried home for it was
almost time for the children's return
from school. She had just kipdled fire
and started her dinner when Tom and
Rena came running in. Rena had broken
through the ice and was quite wet and
: cold.

how could you be SO careless of your
sister? "How did it happen?'
.Well it wasn't my fault mother, Rena

Did you return the skates?' INQUIRED
his mother as she took off Rena's wet

Tho noy. Made "a strike.

It seemed necessary not long ago
for a woman who does not often give
dinners to entertain formally at that
meal four persons, two of them COM
plete strangers. The household re-
joices at all other times in the pos
session Of four rollicking boys rang
ing in years from eight to fourteen,
but at this domestic crisis what to do
with them was a problem. They
simply could not assist at the dinner,
being in the cub stage of existence,
and after shameful coaxing and
bribery the quartet were 'shooed"
half hour before the guests were
TO arrive into an upper room under
bonds not to show themselves till
summoned
A small luncheon was provided to
take the edge off their appetites, and
things went beautifully till coffee be-
low stairs was reached. This was be-
ing leisurely slipped, with host and
hostess congratulating themselves on
the angelic silence of the boys and
the success of the dinner, when sud
denly, without sound of warning,
the hall door of the dining room was
burst open and fourfold streak OF
boys shot through the room, vanish
ing with slam through the opposite
door litchenward.
1t was cyclone in proportions,
and the parents shuddered, while
even the guests WINGED. The quar-
tet of stomachs-for boys at that age
do not own much else-had stood the
strain till the last moment of endur
ance, and then resolved upon and exc
cuted a coup. Her Point of View il

Congress al Last Takes Action

congress dU LdSI 1dheS ACbIOu'
A bill has been introduced at
Washington requiring all baking
powder containing alum and
M monia to be 80 labeled.
This is step in the right
direction, and has been long fore
shadowed by the action of state
legislatures, boards of health, food
commissioners, etc., in this matter
The Till affords needed protection tC
the public, for the evidence as to the
injurious effects of alum and am
monia is very heavy; but it will
nevertheless be fought bitterly by
The manufacturers whom it affects
who are accustomed to sell theiI
goods as "pure cream of tartar
absolutely pure" etc.
The bill is something needed. il
a maker uses drug in his powder
the name of which he does moi
want to have printed on his label, il
is prima facie evidence that there Ii
something wrong. We hope the
subject will be vigorously prosecuted
all over the country, not only al
regards baking powder, but also al
other food adulterations.
This bill may incidentally benefit
the makers Of pure articles, but if II
should, this is only an additional
point in its favor.

ARE You GOING ?-20, 600, 900 WIS.,
itors, at least, are expected at the
Columbian exposition; and whether
you expect to be one of them or not,
as an American, naturally you are
interested in the preparations for
the grand event. A splendid paper
in Demorest's Family Magazine for
April, "The Evolution of Great
Exposition" is the best thing of the
kind that has yet been published.
From it you may learn all the inter
esting points about the coming
worlds fair, and the illustrations
are simply superb, including COM
prehensive view and the plans of
the grounds, pictures of all the mag
nificent buildings, and portraits of
some of the leading officers having
it in charge. Besides, there are
splendid stories, every department
is full of good things, and there are
over 200 handsome illustrations; and
every months magazine is just as
good, and the subscription price is
only So q year. Published by W..

to be placed in Seatlle's hsrbOr, Is to
he held in position 10y AN anchor
from one of the men-of-war wrecked
at Apia, Samoa, three years ago.
Many farmers in the Potla,ch
country are doubling their acreage
this spring. A failure of crops has
never been known there, and all are
confident of an abundant harvest
this fall.
Athena's city election took place
Monday last. #. j. Kirk was elected
mayor, ]. Bloch, c. A. Barrett, G.
w. Hollis, ]. B. Dickinson and e.
r. Cox, councilmen; w. t. Gilman,
treasurer; ]. G. Stamper, marshal.
Corvallis Times: The building
boom is on and nearly every me-
chanic in our city finds ready en-
ployment. II would be difficult to
estimate just how many buildings
will be built this year, but it is safe
to predict that 1892 will surpass any
previous record.
The outlook for full fruit crop in
the vicinity of Ellensburg Is most
flattering. The orchard acreage has
been largely increased in that sec
tion of late years, and many new
orchards will come into bearing this
fall for the first time. Late frOsts
alone will prevent large yield.
The case of Victor Rumple vs. the
Oregon Short Line 4 Utah North
ern railroad has been on trial in the
district court of Idaho for several
days past. 1t came to n conclusion
on Friday when the jury rendered
verdict of $10,275 in favor OF
plaintiff. 1t appears from the evil
dence that the plaintiff was knocked
down and run over by train at
Nampa in June, 1891, under circum'
stances tending to show neglect on
the part of the road.
A frightful accident happened on
Sunday last to boy residing on the
ridge between Eight and Fifteen
mile. He, with another 10y, was
returning home with load of wood
when he fell on the doubletree
which started the horses to kicking
Clinging 10 the doubletree until the
team ran some distance, he was
thrown on the ground and the
wagon passed over him. The back
of his head was crushed in and
other bruises were discernible. He
died soon after the accident. The
boys name was Charlie Case, and
his parents live in the immediate
vicinity. He was u good boy ano
was highly respected by the neigh
bors.

Mr.. Aitken's observations during
the summer of 1889 were made on
the Continent to find out the mini
mum number of dust particles in
natural air untouched by artificial
causes. At Hyeres, near Toulon, the
number per cubic inch) varied from
AS, 900 to 1884, 000 the latter when the
wind was blowing from the town.
At Cannes the lowest observation
was "a, 900, when the wind was blow
ing from the mountains; but the
number rose to 100000 when the
wind was blowing from the town.
The sea air at Hyeres contained
2s, 200, at Mentone $4,000 with a
steady wind from the sea- and at
Cannes double that number. At Lu.
cerne, in Switzerland, the specimens
of air tested were remarkably free
from dust; ON the Righi mountains
the minimum was $500 particles.
In the purest Highland air in Scot
land, tested by Mr.. Aitken, he found
the minimum to be $4,000 particles
per cubic inch. Good Words.

sicilian Grnas.

In Sicily there is wild grass
which, when ripe at the end of sum
mer, is gathered by the peasantry,
tied in bundles and set ON fire, not,
however, to be consumed, but for a
mere scorching. The flame flies rap
idly through the light husks and
beard of the plant and leaves the
seeds slightly roasted, in which state
they are eaten with considerable rel
ish by numbers of the rural popula-
ton. What the Sicilians do with
their grass might be done with other
grasses and in other countries were
it not that the seeds generally are too
small to repay the trouble of produc-
ing them for food. If all were but as
large as those of corn, or even wheat
and barley, we should hear few COM
plants of dear bread. Instances in
deed are on record of grass seeds
having been largely eaten in times
of scarcity and with the desired eff
feet of sustaining life, for all are
more or less floury.
The botanical name of this Sicilian
grass is Egilops, or goatseye-the
Greeks having believed it to be a
remedy for a disease that appears in
one corner of the eye. There are
three or four species growing all
around the Mediterranean as well as
in the islands, chiefly on the hot, dry,
sandy plains near the sea. They
flourish even on the scorched vol
canic soils, in strange contrast tc
their arid and barren surroundings,
showing that the vital principle in
them is unusually energetic and
proof against extremes of heat.-Chi-
