The summer outing habit has had a
wonderful growth in recent years. 1t
is very sensible idea, and while some
people think they cannot afford to go
away for vacation from bushes and
household cares, it really pays in
most cases in the end. OF course dis
cretion is to be exercised here as in
other things, and all the savings of
the year should not be squandered in
a few weekes of a giddy summer
round. But there are now so many
inexpensive yet delightful trips that
may be made that almost anybody
can get away for a few days at least,
and feel the better for mouths to come
to say nothing of the broadening effect
of travelling on the individual.

Things to Forget.

Ifyou would increase your hap
piness and prolong your life for
get your neighbours fault. For
get the SANDER you have ever
heard. Forget the temptations.
Forget the fault-fnding, and give
a little thought to the cause which
provokes it. Forget the peculiar
tiles of your friends, and only re-
member the good points which
make you fond of them. Forget
all personal quarrels or histories
you may have heard by accident,
and which, if repeated, would
seem u thousand times worse
than they are. Blot out as far as
possible all the disagreeables of
life; they will come, but they will
grow larger when you remember
them, and the constant thought
of the acts of meanness, or, worse
still, malice, will only tend to
make you more familiar with
them. Obliterate everything dis
agreeable from yesterday; start
out with clean sheet for today,
and write upon it for sweet mem.
ory's sake, only those things
which are lovely and lovable.

candidate. All this was received by the

the face OF the executive being as express
sionless as craven image.
At last the ordeal was over, and the
governor is reported to have spoken softly
the words that dashed Judge Moore
hopes to pieces. In other words. so the
story goes, the governor said plainly that
he had promised the appointment to his
friend Judge White. of Seattle.
At this, according to all accounts. Mr..
Gilman expressed himself In strongly COM
mandatory terms OF the selection. 1t is
even said that in quite little speeth Mr.
Gilman extolled the virtues and abilities
possessed by Judge White equaling his eff
fort in behalf of Judge Moore. Mr.. Howe
il reported to have followed similar
strain, and then Mr.. Condor added his
voice to the harmonious council of words
What's the matter with making 1t
unanimous? the governor is reported to
have asked. No one objected and the Sc
