THE NEW rlRIFF BILL.

either democrats or republicans, but
that is ouly natural, since any tartil.
bill not laid for r6vcnU1 ON articles we
do not produce must necessarily divide
the people into two classes, the one
getting the benefit of the tarltand tht
other putting up for it, While no seo-
sible person expected absolute free
trade, the great majority Of the deuoc-
racy did expect much nearer approach
to it than has been made, There will
be some $50 100000 to raise to cover the
deficit, and it is proposed 10 lay an in

forcibly that while this protection prin-

The cruiser Olympia has had trouble
in making her trial tIins. Ftgsl, after
n phenomenal run, size was compelled
TO leave her test uncomp,e;ed, because
n bolt broke in her pumps. Monday
she again started but was compelled to
abandon the run on account of fog
She, however, demonstrated that the
Pacific coast is to hold the banner for
having built the fastest warship in the
world-for she easily beat the best time
of the Columbia, running about -6
knots an hour.

The rain has fallen steadily for the
past ten days, commencing on Gov
.ernor Pennoyer's day. The fifteen
inches of snow which greeted Us on
that special day of Thanksgiving was
converted into slush in two days, and
then slowly disappeared. Since then
the prevailing dampness would shame
the best, or worst efforts, Of Webfoot
itself. However, we should feel thank
ful that it is rain, for the same prclip-
itatlon in the shape of snow would have
buried the town. Alas il needs it.

The Oregontan says that if the new
tariff goes into effect, Portland dealers
must prepare to sell coal - cents per
ton cheaper than heretofore If this
be true, what a sad blow to the coal
dealer. But, say, Harvey! how will
it strike the fellow that buys the coal?

hitting the Lips.

"If girls only knew" remarked a
woman, eminent in her profession as
a physician, chow they dishgure
themselves by continually biting their
Iips, l think that they would make
the effort to break themselves OF the
habit
.In infancy the red line at the
.ower edge Of the lip is very clearly
defined. Constant irritation with
the upper teeth sometimes extends
the red color for half or three-Quarters
of an inch below the original line and
DESTROYS the symmetry OF the mouth.
The lap becomes thickened and some
times inflamed, frequently there are
deep creases or cracks, and the wind
and sun burn and discolor it until 1t
Is almost positive deformity.
IAN ugly mouth is often the re
suit Of a habit which has its rise in
the possession of a dimple. Who has
not seen girls and even middle-aged
women in street-cars making them
selves absolutely ridiculous in their
efforts to create dimple by biting
their lips? Every senible person in
the car who toox the trouble to OBJ
serve them at all was doubtless laugh
ing at them for their folly, but all
unconscious, they kept on with this
silly practice. Absolute repose OF
the features should be taught every
child as part OF its earliest lessons "

credited with having executed the

half inches square On this small
card the pen wizard wrote, without
the slightest abbreviation, the whole

der" ''The Tale Of Aim" 'and the
same authors six essays on 'Justice,
Generosity" "Irreso,ution OF
Youth" 'Frailty of Man" '.Friend-
ship" and THE Genius of Love.
In the center of the card he executed
a perfect picture Of Ottery Church,
all of the shades and lines being parts
Of the letters used In writing the
above named pieces. This miracu
lous production was finished with the
English national anthem OF ''God
Save the Queen" The margins, cor
ners and spaces between the lines
were embellished with seventytwc
stars, flfty-one crescents and nineteen
crosses, a mobled snake in p2nwork
lnclosed the whole of this remark

King Georges GoIdhsh.

George IL was sometimes a he=i
King TO manage, as Kings 20, ana had
10 be INDUCED in an occasional con-
cession. On the occasion of the open
ing OF Parliament, during one of the
years when Pitt was Prime Minister,
the Lords and Commons were greatly
perpleXed by reference to the gold
fish at Windsor Castle, which was in
trUduced into the Kings speech as
eead by Pitt.
The reference was in the way or a
comparison, but the introduction OF
the matter was so odd that several
members Of Parliament could not re-
train from expressing their mystitica
lion to Mr. Pitt.
But the minister refused to make
any explanation of the matter, in
sisting that the use of the comparison
Mas his own affair.
1t was not until after both Pitt
and King George were dead that the
explanation came out The Prime
Minister, it is related, had come to
the King at the palace with the
speech from the throne fully pre-
pared.
He found the King seated at the
edge of the basin of fountain, earn
estlv regarding the goldfish sporting
about in the water. Pitt read the
speech.
Does your Majesty approve the
ilscoure?" asked the minister.
Il will approve it, but only on one
condition." said the King, 'and that
is, that you introduce into it soms
-eference to the fishes.
The King was obdurate, and refused
his authorization Of the royal speech
until Mr. Pitt had promised faith
fully to say something in it about thu
royal goldfish.

Ealing TimhAr.

Spaniards dislike to fell trees OF
cut live timber Of any sort, aud this
fact perhaps accounts for the giant
trees OF California. The Spaniards,
two centuries ago, pushed their way
through Mexico to California, and,
save the clearing Of paths through
The dense forests, not twig did their
axes chop down. Nor do the Spaniards
.ranspianted to this continent ever
iestroy timber. With stubborn peril
laciousness strangely at variance with
their lethargic dispositions, they con-
.Inue to build their houses of stone
and mortar at great expense Of money
and physical exertion, when timber In
abundance surrounds them out OF
which they could construct log houses,
IS did other pioneers, at a minimum
If cost and labor. Why, the Spaniard
ioesn't even fell trees for 1rewood,
out picks up dead limbs as they fall
o the ground, or pulls them from the
rees with bis lariat.
