Competent Lumbermen Bear us Out.

The MASON COUNTY JOURNAL is need
.essly alarmed over the proposed
shipment OF logs from Grays Harbor
to the Sound, lest those shipments in
juriously effect that market, and un-
dertakes to bear the market for this
timber in advance. The JOURNAL says
"The fir OF that section (Grays Har-
bor) is not so fine grained as the
Sound growth and the lumber brings
less in the markets." This will be
brand new information to lumbermen,
the total absurdity of which is plain,
especially so as the largest works now
putting logs into the Sound secures
its timber from the headWaters OF
streams running into Grays Harbor.
But, the JOURNAL has no cause for
alarm. The shipping of logs from
Grays Harbor will be but a temporary
affair. There is room on the Harbor
for all the mills required to cut this
timber, and its advantages over the
Sound, as a shipping point is becom-
ing so we'll known that the mills will
be here ere long. Meanwhile the ship
ping Of our surplus logs to the Sound
will effect much desired equalization
OF the log market between the two
points.-Aberdeen Herald.

GENERAL Fred Funston was another
eminent Filipino fighter who was, the
anti-expansionists said, going to para
lyze the administration when be came
back home and began to give out facts
about the Tagal rebellion and the gov
erment's shameful policy there. But
General Funston, like Admiral Dewey,
has bitterly disappointed them. "The
report, he said, sthat am anti-expan-
sionist is ridiculous and not worthy
OF serious consideration. Speaking
further concerning Aguinaldo he said,
"be is com man" Now a "con''
man, as the sophisticated know, is one
who worms into the confederacy OF
the unsophistlcated and betrays them.
That is precisely what he is doing
with his followers-leading them into
a hopeless and futile rebellion against
the supremacy of the stars and stripes
in the Philippines. The Tagal SYM
pathizers will have to look elsewhere
for competent witnesses of undoubted
integrity. Aberdeen Bulletin.

De Bedbug and De Louise.

The experience Of the miner and
the logger in Washington are varied,
but to properly portray them requires
a knowledge oftheir Surroundings and
the multiplied smaller evils which vex
them and sometimes make life bur
den.
The bedbug is cosmopolitan, invad-
ing all climes and places. The louise
is more circumscribed in his opera
tions; one variety making his home
in the head, on which Billy Burns
sonnet, "On seeing louise on a lady's
bonnet" has rendered him immortal.
The other variety invading the cloth

ments, where they build their homes

TO COOL FOOD WITHOUT ICE.

The problem of cooling food quickly
without ice has at last been solved by
a German housewife. How often this
is required every cook knows who has
made her custard late and wants to
have it cool without melting all of the
Ice iii the ice box. The device invented
is so simple that it is a wonder that it
was not thought of long ago, and, in
fact, the principle has long been used
by the inhabitants of South America,
who are not yet well acquainted with
ice machines. The plan offered is as
follows; Remove the pot containing
the custard. for instance, from the fire
and pour the contents into a bowl or
pitcher that will hold it. Then wrap q
cloth that has been soaked in cold
water around the bowl or pitcher COW
ering all of the outer surface Stand
the vessel in a window through which
there is a draught, and the evaporation
of the water in the cloth will cool the
custard more quickly than if it had
been put into the ice box and melted all
the ice. 1t is surprising how quickly
the food to be cooled is reduced in
temperature by this method, but it is
one so simple and easy that anyone
can try 1t for herself the next time she
wishes to cool anything rapidly.

FRISCO AND FICTION MODELS.

Beauty that is something msre than
skin deep is possessed by "a group of
four fair women who are the models
for some of the most noted artists in
New York City. Age cannot wither
nor custom stale the value and charm
of their good looks either, for their
lovely features have been translated
on dozens of the most valuable can
vases in public buildings or private
houses, and those who make special
pilgrimages to the great Waldorf
Astoria hotel to see the ceiling of the
big ball room from the brush of Mr..
Blashfield are enjoying in oils the best
Interpretation given of the ethereal
loneliness of Grace de Forest. This
blonde, blue eyed girl, with a complex
ion like milk and roses, and the round
yet slender arms that artists love is
considered the most perfect model IN
New York for coloring and for the inn
presentations of spring, the spirits of
dance, music, the wind, etc. Her
Madonna-lil1e brows and eyes have
been celebrated in the big picture of
Christmas bells by Mr. Blashfield
where crowds Of angels Cluster about
a lofty church belfry.
When Edward Simmons undertook to
adorn the walls and ceilings of Fred
erick Vanderbilt's stately country
house he made Ureilla Hodges famous
by posing and painting her as the
Aurora in the groups of NEUROLOGICAL
figures. He wished an Aurora with
red gold hair, a young, lovely and smil-
ing face and fine shoulders, and this
young woman, IN American by birth,
as are all the most beautiful models,
fitted exactly into the place.
1t is her remarkable hair, inherited
from an English mother, and her smil-
ing red Tipped mouth that had made
her admired among the painters,
though she approaches perfect beauty
more nearly, in all her features, than
any woman who sits in the studios, and
winter and summer her engagements,
