a dainty little virtue specially
adapted to young women.

Vaccination.

The word vaccination is derived
from ''vacca," the Latin name for
COW. DR.. Jenner, who first suspected
that cowpox and smallpox were two
forms of the same disease, was a
physician in an English country
town. He once overheared a milk
maid declaring that she would not
take smallpox because she had al
ready had cowpoX, This led him to
take note Of a popular notion among
the countr, people that the two dis
eases were a~ntagonistic. The idea
that cowpox might really be small.
pOx modified by its passage through
a lower animal took possession Of his
mind and he devoted himself to the
calculation of the subject. Investi-
CATION and experiment satisfied him
of the correctness of his theory, and
his whole subsequent life was de.
voted to advocating the cause OF
vaccination as a preventive Of small

To Change Frances Fete Day.

Efforts are making in France to sub
~stitute the birthday of Joan of Arc as
the national fete day in place Of the
l4th of July, the anniversary OF the TAX
ing of the Bastile. The Bastile cpl
sode anniversary no longer excites the
same enthusiasm it did at the begin
ming of the present regime. And then
it is being pointed out that the honor
of demolishing the Bastile belongs to
Germans and not Frenchmen. History
is quoted to the effect that the siege
and capture of the famous prison was
more especially the work OF foreigners,
of whom the majority W o g Gerrs ms,
and thus France has beer annually csl-
eb,sting the shedding of French blood
By Germans.

WHAT is EATEN.
Exhibit OF Queer Foods Used by Out-of.
the-Way People.

Exhibit of Queer Foods Used by Out-of-
the Way People.
At the Department of Agriculture
In Washington, hidden away in an
obscure corner, is an odd sort of ex.
hibit OF queer foods eaten by out.of-
the way people. There is a loaf of
bread made from the roasted leaves
OF a plant allied to the century plant.
Another kind of bread is a dough OF
juniper berries. These are relished
by some tribes of Indians. while
Others manufa lure cakes out of dir
ferent kinds Of bulbs. The prairie
Indians relish a dish Of wild turnips,
which civilized people would not be
likely TO euj0y at all. In the great
American desert the ''screw BEANS"
which grow on mesquite. bushes, are
utilized for food. Soap berries fur
nish an agreeable diet for some saw
ages in this country, while in Cali.
fOrnia the copper-colored aborigines
do not disdain the seeds of salt ass.
Also in California the Digger In.
dams collect pinenuts, which are
seeds of a certain species of pine
sometimes called '%pinons",, by kin.
Hing fires against thel trees, thus
causing the nuts to fall out of the
cones. At the same time a sweet
gum exudes from the bark, serving
The purpose of sugar. The seeds Of
gourds are consumed in the shape of
nush by Indians in Arr Ona.
In addition to all these things the
exhibit referred to includes a jar
Of pulverized %crlckets. which are
eaten in that form by the Indians Of
Oregon. They are roasted, as are
likewise grasshoppers and ever slugs.
These delicac es are cooked in a pit,
being arranged in alternate layers
with hot stones. After being thus
prepared they ale dried and ground
to powder. They are mixed with
pounded acorns or berries, the flour
being kneeded into cakes and dried
in the sun. The A%ssiniboines used
a kind Of seed to stop bleeding at
the nose. Among other curious
things used for food are acOrns, sun
flower seeds, grape seeds, flowers of
cat.tails, moss from the spruce fir
tree, ana the blossoms Of wild clover.
The exhibit embraces a number of
models representing grape seeds
enormously enlarged. 1t is actually
possible t. tell the species of a grape
by the shape of the seed. There is a
jar of red willow bark, which In.
dams mix with tobacco for the sake
of economy. This, however, is only
n OF a thousand plants that are
utilized in "A similar fashion.

Wouldn't Lie Down with the Laml


''The hardest thing to train a wild
beast to do is to perform with a weak,

HutchinS. an old circus and menag-
erie hand, who has deserted the arena
and ring for mercantile pursuits, and
was at the Laclede yesterday in his
capacity as a commercial traveller.
Il remember ace several years ago
an effort being made to persuade a
very docile lion to lie down with a
lamb. The idea was certainly a good
one, but it took several lambs and also
several weeks before the lion, which
was willing to jump through a burn
ing hoop, sham death on being shot,
etc. could be persuaded}to allow a
lamb to enter his den With impunity.
Twice he killed a lamb in the presence
of his trainer, and the second, time
he nearly killed the trainer who
rathes recklessly tried to get away
the carcass. Finally, the lion wonld
tolerate a lamb in its den just as long
as the keeper stood over it with an
iron bar. But the effort was So
evidently forced and the performance
was so utttrlY lacking in smOOthness

Arrested Without Cause.

It often happens that an innocent per-
son is arrested for an imaginary offense,
that upon investigation is proven to be
the result of carelessness ON the part of
prosecutor. By this haste in trivial mat
tiers, the State, altogether, too frequently
isput to unnecessary expense, and inno-
cent parties caused much unnecessary
cost and inconvenience. One day this
week, party by the name of Thomas
Martin arrived here from Lane county,
with band of horses, which he placed
in pasture near town. On his trip down
cayuse pony, worth, probably. $50, fol-
lowed his band of horses along the road.
It was separated from the others several
times and driven into adjoining pastures,
but to no purpose. The pony was bound
to come to Corvallis, notwithstanding Mr..
Martins efforts to deter it in its purpose.
On placing the horses in the pasture here
the pony was left out in the county road.
Several persons were informed by Mr..
1sf2ftsT T-1,ll at Tie pony did not belong TO-
him. Notwithstanding all these circum-
stances, Martin was arrested on a warrant
from Lane conuty, issued on the COM
plant of the owner of the pony, and
taken to Junction yesterday morning for
a preliminary examination, where he will
no doubt explain the matter to the entire
satisfaction of the court, and be dis
charged. In such an event, it is to be
hoped that the costs will be taxed to the
private prosecutor for owning a horse
that would run away, and for causing the
arrest of man, who, upon investigation,
he would have found innocent of the
charge

False Charges Kefuteo.

To one unfamiar with the history of the
editor of the Lincoln Leader it would
seem that he had at sometime in his life
been gifted. At any rate something has
happened that causes him to be the
most disagreeable and i'll natured person
that ever edited paper in this section
of the state. He also seems terribly de-
fcient in veracity. An opportunity is
never lost to cast some slurring insinua-
ton at his neighbors whose ideas are not
in harmony with his own narrow views.
An instance of his false insinuating style
is shown in the last issue when he
accuses Mr.. Wallace Nash of having
voted illegally at the last election and
suggests that the next grand jury of
Lincoln county will have no more inn
portant business than looking into the
affair. Had the Leader investigated the
matter as 1t should have done before
making such sweeping assertions, it
might have learned that it has been the
custom of Mr.. Nash, during the past
several years, to vote at the Summit,
which precinct, prior to the division, in
cluded Mr.. Nash's home ON Rock creek
and which is now within the boundaries
of Nashville precinct and at which
polling place Mr.. Nash voted at the re-
cent election in conformity with his
custom of several years.
