That's what Frank Parrish is. Frank
will be 21 years of age next May. The

RoNNETs AND CIGARS.
Sure Relief for the Man Whose WIFE Buys
Cigars for Him.


When lovely woman stoops to folly
and sets out to buy her husbands
cigars for him one of two things is
reasonably sure to happen, says the
New York Press. If the unfortunate
head of the households is of choleric
temperament he uses language and
pitches the offending weeds out of the
window. This naturally gives pain to
their innocent purchaser, and is ex-
tremely likely to bring about a>family
hurricane, with a plentiful shower of
tears. If the victim of his wife's good
intentions is suave and diplomat he
says nothing, but adroitly substitutes
a box of cigars of his own choosing for
the gift which was meant to add to the
comforts of home, and generously pre-
sents the first box to the Italian boot
black around the corner. This is un-
doubtedly the better method of the
two, but it has the serious disadvan-
tage of encouraging the misguided
wife to repeat the experiment which
apparently worked SO well. This is
apt to be trying to the patience even of
patient husband. Besides it is very
hard on the bootblack.
AssuredIy some method should be
adopted to prevent occurrences so re-
RreUtap1e. since argument IN Such
cases would in all human probability
be utterly useless, we venture to sug
gest another remedy. When mans
wife inficts on him the gift of a box of
cigars let him accept them smilingly,
remembering the bootblack around the
corner Then let him reciprocate by
going out and purchasing his wife
bonnet approved solely by his own
masculine judgment. The cure may
seem trifie expensive, but it will
work. The woman does not exist who
would not take the hint. For the bon
net chosen by man without reference
to his wife's tastes is certain to be as
acceptable as the cigars which the wife
buys for her husband.

$50, 500, $500 and 81, 900; our gold GER
tificates do not appear in denomina-
tions less than $50 The Dominion of
Canada issues 81 and 50 notes, and
various banks issue notes varying from
SIS to 81, 900. Mexico issues paper
money of 10 pesos and upward and the
South American states issue paper of
similar denominations. The Bank of
England issues all English notes in de-
nominations of e5, e10, EGO, ESQ, e10O,

Keno of Dufur labors hard in a sensa-
tional article under the heading Caught

his readers that Mr.. G. P. Balch of that
"city" will not be a candidate for sheriff
this year. 1t really seems too bad that
the mountain should have labored go

should know what everybody else in the
county knows, viz: that Mr.. Balch will
not be candidate for anything this year: !:
and not waste his precious talents so
recklessly. OF course Mr. Balch will
not be candidate. Why should he, or
what reason to suppose that anybody

is hard to guess, But perhaps it is to
warn certain aspiring candidates that

There are some very able liars in
Florida, as the visiting pugilists and
sports found recently. One of them tells
about having been blowed up in steam
boat picnic in 1881 and losing an arm
and afoot and having section of boiler
iron driven through his body. Just as
the coroner was about to knock him in
the head to save trouble, an old country
doctor asked for him and loaded him in
to his buggy with spare arm and leg
picked up from the wreck. The doctor
drove him home, ten miles, sewed on
the arm and leg and fitted him out with
pigs lights and liver. And to this day
he squeals when he sees swill.

Tomorrow will be st. Valentines day,
and thousands of pretty missives will be
distributed to gladden. the hearts of the
loving by the beloved. Some, perchance,
may fall on stony ground and fail to
awaken a responsive echo in the heart
of the one for whom it was designed.
The sentiment with horiated border,
ranging in intensity from % cents to 81
or 81, may not seem to partake of the
nature of the donor to such one, but in
all cases where the course of ''true love
runs smooth" the thought will never
occur that the valentine is bought ready
made, and the donor will be credited
with remarkable poetic genius, as well
as mechanical ability. The unloved
swain or embittered youth will strike a
poniard to all his enemies, male and
female, at small cost, by purchasing
valentines of the penny variety. These
exaggerated horrors in red, blue and
yellow do not properly belong to st.
Valentine, but they do not seem to de-
crease in popularity and millions of
them are purchased yearly. They de-
serve no more attention than the anony-
NOUS letter, and should be dismissed
from sight and mind at the same in
stant.

Made Love by Lightninr.

The late Prof. Morse made love by
lightning, as it were. He met his first
wife during an evening cali at the
house of her father and proposed mar
riage to her before he went away that
night. After some happy years she
died, leaving him with several children.
He remained "a widower until at the
age of fifty-seven he attended the we'd
ding. of his eldest son. One of the
younger ones was what the Scotch
tenderly call an innocent p and it was
the kindness of relative of the bride
to this boy that attracted his fathers
attention. He invited the lady to drive
with him the following day. When
they returned from the expedition they
were engaged to be married.

Careful inquiry mas led to the discov-
cry that there are no fewer than hine

A writer in The Vie Contemporaine
gives list of them. One is in the pos
session of Nine. Claitte, whose grand
father, Gen. Giraud, picked it up at
Marengo. At a critical moment Bona
wind blowing off his hat he did not
stop to pick 1t up.
Another of the hats, says the London
Daily News, is in little crypt beside
Napoleon's tomb at the Invalides
This was worn on the 18th, Sth and 9th
of February, 1907, at Eylau, and it is
the identical one represented in the
colossal picture of the battle by Gros,
to be- seen in the Louvre. During the
peace which succeeded the battle Gros
was commissioned to paint the picture,
and in order that the figure of the en-
peror might be faithfully depicted the
hat was given TO the painter.
At the death of Gros in 1885 it was
found under glass case upon a
wooden stand, and it was sold by auc-
ton among the painters effects for
two thousand and forty-seven francs
fifty centimes to DIR. Delacroix, who
presented it to Louis Philippe. The
latter, after the famous second funeral
of Napoleon, ordered it to be placed be-
side the remains with the emperor's
crosses and the sword he wore at Aus
terlitz. OF the remaining hats, one
belongs to Prince Victor Napoleon and
another to the museum at Gotha.

SHE MEANT WELL ENoGeH.
But Her Zeal Led Her Into Very Un-

But Her Zeal Led Her Into Very Un-
comfortable Predicament.
The Christian zeal of young woman
of Louisville. KY, placed her in a most
uncomfortable position last Sunday,
says the Courier Journal. She is one of
a family of bright girls who are cele-
brated for their good looks. She is also
a a>teacher in the Sunday school of one of
our fashionable churches. Recently she
took a class of men, all over 21 years of
age, as she said that she thought the
male generation at that age needed more
Christianity than at any other. So
earnest was she in her work that she
would make the rounds of the back
seats of the Sunday school and drag for
ward the men who had come only to see
the girls and be seen by them. This
earnest young teacher would then take
them in her class and teach them to
walk in the straight and narrow path.
Last Sunday she noticed chap about 80
years old in the rear of the church. She
saw that he was stranger and thought
therewas a decidedly worldly look about
his carefully arranged attire. In a
moment the earnest young teacher had
made Iup her mind and invited the
young man to become member of her
class. The stranger blushed slightly
with surprise and probably with pleasure
at the thought of being in the handsome
teachers class. Soon he had taken a
seat, appearing perfectly at home. The
teacher was surprised to hear the
stranger answer all the difficult Biblical
questions with perfect ease. Finally an
amused smile was observed on the new
scholars face. He began to ask the
teacher questions with which she was
totally unfamiliar. In desperation the
teacher finally asked the new scholar
who he was. The latter replied with
the utmost gravity that he was the
Rev. -, who had been invited tc
come here and lecture that evening al
the Y. M. G. A. The earnest young
teacher now has class of young girls.

DIAMOND MOLECULES.
The Gem Is Said to Be a Mass of Very
Lively Atoms.

Lively Atoms.
Sir R. Ball, who is fond of revealing
the marvellous, has been studying the
mysterious action of molecules; and
what he has to say concerning the
movements of the molecules of dia-
mond is as truly surprising as anything
he has told US about the sun and the
planets. Every body is composed of
multitude of extremely, but not inf
nitely, small molecules, and it might
be thought, says Sir Robert according
to contributor in the Newcastle Eng
land] Chronicle), that in solid, at all
events. the little particles must be clus-
tered together in a compact mass. But
the truth is far more wonderful. Were
the sensibility of our eyes increased so
as to make them few million times
more powerful, it would be seen that
the diamond atoms, which form the
perfect gem when aggregated in sufh-
cient nyriads, are each in condition
of rapid movement of the most COM
plex description.
Each molecule would be seen swing
ing to and fro with the utmost violence
among the neighboring molecules and
quivering from the shocks it receives
from encounters with other molecules,
"
second. The hardness and i1npenetra-
bility so characteristic would at first
sight seem to refute the supposition
that it is no more than a cluster of
rapidly moving particles; but the we'll
known impenetrabili of the gem
arises from the fact that, when attempt
is made to press a steel point into the
stone, it fails, because the rapidly NOV
ing molecules of the stone batter the
metal with such extraor dinary vehe-
mence that they refuse to allow it to pen
citrate or even to mark the crystallized
surface. When glass is cut with dia-
mond the edge which seems so hard is
really composed of rapidly moving
atoms. The glass which is cut is also
merely mass of moving molecules and
what seems to happen is that as the
diamond is pressed forward its several
particles, by their superior vigor, drive
the little particles of glass out of the
