A Desperate Contest.

The merry .go-round has struck pay
streak. Its proprietor recognizing that
love is what makes not only the world,
but the merry-go-round has offered
gold watch as prize to the most pop
ular young lady in The Dalles, the en-
tries being for girls up to ''a certain age.''
Young America is on hand to prove his
divinity, and as each time he rides he
gets ticket, and with each ticket gets
a vote, life is to him o1e joyous round of
pleasure. As it is free for all, no weights
for age, it is hard to make any estimate
as to the result. It may be a damsel
fair and 26 or it may be some sugar
coated little lady of sweet IA. The cleo
ton, SO to speak, is running high, higher
and hotter and more fierce than the Nc
Kinley- Bryan fight, for in the eyes of
the parJisans there is more at stake,
and every individual doughty little
knight is determined that his particular
divinity, the sun of hie first affections
! and whose bright beams jlluminate like
an X ray the innermost recesses of his
soul shall wear that watch. AS a re-
suit, night and day the merry-go-round
whirls gaily, though somewhat creak-
ingly, not being permitted to stop long
enough to get its gudgeons creased.
The nickels flow in, the tickets out. and
the watch ticks listeningly waiting for
the selection of its fair owner.

self-Denia1 Week.

The Salvation Army is all alive and
actively engaged in preparing for its an
nual Self-Deuial week, which takes
place throughout the United States
from Nov. 18th to 22d inclusive. Large
sums of money have been raised in past
years, and it is a wonderful testimony to
the army's development and activity.
Each member of the army, as well as
friends of its many social institutions,
are asked to abstain from all luxuriee,
and in many cases officers and soldiers
have actually determined to do without
certain articles of food which are ordI-
narily considered necessary, in order
that by their acts of self denial they
may add financial support to the army
and its many different branches of work.
The gocial operations throughout
America have been greatly developed
during the past twelve months; new
Food and Shelters have been opened in
New York, San Francisco and Kansas
City respectively. As a natural conse-
quence, therefore, the demands upon
the army's funds have increased, and
this will require still greater efforts tc
raise correspondingly increased amount
during this special self-Denial week
The total aimed at is $40 1000.

Memory and Other Things.

There was fairly good skating on the.
sidewalks at an early hour this morning
the rain winding up in light fall of
sleet. AS we came slipping our little
tootsies down to our treadmill, the crisp
icy sidewalks set our memory to roam
ing into the misty past, when with the
old curled-toed skates we "glid" over
tha frozen surface of the mighty canal.
To the time when the one rosy checked
and fur be wrapped little divinity that
flowed across our youthful vision, and
filed our adolescent heart to oyerhowing
with the blissful pain of an overgrown
dose of puppy love. To the time when
but just here our feelings overcame us
and we sat down to recuperate. 1t
didn't take long, owing to the GOODNESS
existing between us and the sidewalk,
to yank our memory out of the dim past
and fetch her back to the painful pres
ent. As soon as she arrived we remem-
bered that under such circumstances,
the best thing to do was to get mp.
This we did, taking something less than
quart of dampness up with US. The
only moral that we perceive in this
depression is that 1t is better to concen-
trate ones thoughts on the beans and
spuds that we have with US, or ought to
have, than on the lilies and languor, the
roses and red cheeks of the too long ago.
There is more solid comfort in corset
full of eatables, than pleasure in recol-
lection of what might have been, but
au'f
