To most people the name "Corinth'

Client and honorable history from the
time when il founded Syracuse and
Corcyra until tx was destroyed by the
Romans: IL is rather the place maze
sacred by the residence and loving la
bors OF 81. Paul.
In our first years work, while exca-
waiting house evidently OF the Roman
period. we had sportively called IL the
house OF ''Sosthenes, the brother" lit

upon anything which we could
come upon anything which we could

the slenderest cord OF fancy. Accord

turning over block OF marble found at
depth of about 10 feet. an inscription
Of Roman times. rudely cut and broken

ES, synagogue OF the Hebrews" The
thought arose and would not down,
that this stone was part OF the very
synagogue in which Paul "Gasoned
every Sabbath and persuaded the
Jews and the Greeks. when "he con-
tinued there a year and six months,
teaching the word OF God among them."
The block was elaborately carved on
one side with a row of dentils and high
er bands OF holdings both above AMI
below IL, aud had undoubtedly formed
part of "a fineentaoblature OF a building

been turned downwards, so that it
could be seen by looking up as one

plain, was well fitted for the purpose.

such a setting: nor can we say with

az least not unlikely that he passed
and repassed under this very block. We
could hardly have found anything more
closely associated with him.

A SENATOR'S CREAMERY.

Senator A. w. Reed, of Douglas
county, has a set OF photographs at
his desk which, rightly studied, pre-
sent a valuable object lesson. Pine
are pictures of his creamery at Gardi-
ner, and show what can be done in a
raw country in the way of develop
ment and civilizing.
To start with Mr.. Reed conducts an
extensive mercantile business and
cannery, aud ia connection with this
he operates a creamery, which turns
out as high as 500 pounds OF butter
| daily. He runs a gasoline launch,
which runs up the Smith river daily
25 miles and return TO gather the
milk, and while milk cannot be hauled
10 miles without churning, IL Is never
damaged by the steady motion on the
water. The cans Of milk are picked
up at the little ranch warts OF about
30 patrons, taken TO the creamery aud
the next day returned empty. Orders
are sent to the store with the cans
for anything 10 the merchandise line,
and the next day the goods are deliv-
cred at store prices. Mail is also thus
delivered, aud the system, forms a
great convenience to large settle
ment. In addition TO the large
amount Of milk thus secured, Mr..
Reed milks (by proxy, of course) 200
cows on his own ranch. He operates
large silos TO feed his stock, and is a
sUaunch supporter Of this kind Of
feed He also buys considerable but
ter ia the granular form, which is
put through the creamery process.
The product Of this factory is sold
at San Fran cisco, whence IL is shipped
by waiter, and brings from II TO 30
cents per pound. Considerable Of
this creamery butter was'canned last
year, tor the Alaska, Hawaiian and
Mainla trade.
Senator Reed does not want a boun-
ty on butter, His business does not
depend upon legislation for existence,
and Is not a tax TO the people, but a
constant source OF revenue TO scores
Of familses. One institution OF this
kind is a greater developer OF the coun-
try and promoter Of prosperity than
almost and trust, combination OF cap
ital or monopoly Of much greater pre-
tensions. Scores Of families who
knew nothing about butter making,
when the creamery was opened, are
today able to make good quality OF
dairy butter, which adds not little
to their income every year. Hun
dreds OF head of stock are now raised
where there was none before, and a
species Of business and prosperity pre-
walls that never before known Ia the
wilds OF the Umpqua,
