For cheap covers to summer sofa
cushions the new bandanuas from
India will recommend themselves.
These novel and modish looking
squarol they measure a yard and a
quarter) make mp very effectively. a
single square is large enough to sup
ply cover for cushion. One cuts
right through the square the entire
length, and this piece cut out is folded
once for the cushion proper As you
see, it forms both the back and the
front
The strips along the sides are left
and from these the rutfie is formed.
Oriental colors in vivid or sombrs
schemes characterize these squares.
Aud the best Of them is that while
they are attractive they are so cheap
that even the most frugal housekeep-
er will watch their ruin with equan-
unity. And that's a comfort in sum.

Thanksgiving Surprise.

A very happy surprise awaited Rev
F, r. Spaulding and wife upon their re,
turn from the union Thanksgiving ser.
vices held in the NJ. +. church. Kind
friends had invaded their home and q
sumptuous dinner awaited them, con,
sisting of theusual Thanksgiving turkey
mince pie, cranberry sauce, etc. Those
who had the matter in hand realized the
number in their family was little more
than in any one OF their homes, but
when Rev. Spaulding was heard on Sat
urday to remark they were still eating
Thanksgiving dinner, they were made
conscious that in their efforts to provide
amply for the dinner they had little
overestimated the size of his family.
Some of the brethren Of the church real
izing their services would not be needed
in the preparation OF the dinner, but
anxious in some way on that occasion to
have part in the remembrance of the
pastor and family, took well-flled
wagon OF provisions on the previous day.
Brother and Sister Spaulding were at
loss to find words to express their
gratitude to their membership and
friends who so kindly remembered them
on that occasion.

The Real Eetate Agent.

II you have property for sale, take it
to public spirited real estate agent who
believes in advertising the good features
Of the community and supporting home
industry. Take it to the man who will
advertise it in the local paper, and place
it before as large list of prospective
buyers as he can, and give him the ex-
elusive agency. BY this method you
will get quicker and better returns than
by listing it with several agents. But if
you list it with three or four agents,
each one will try to keep it a secret for
fear some one else will make sale, and
the real estate agent who advertises and
tries to build up the community, is at a
disadvantage; because when he gets a
prospective buyer and starts to show him
around, some curbstone agent will sneak
in and snatch the buyer away and beat
the legitimate agent out of his commits
sion, after he has done the advertising
and brought the buyer in the commu-
nifty.
Be businesslike with your real estate
agent, give him an exclusive contract /;
and then insist on him advertising your
property and the country.-Forest Grove
Times.

Pine Grove.

A special school meeting will be held
ut Pine Grove, at 10 q. M, this coming
Saturday. The object is to elect new
director in the place of Edward Hawks,
who has been absent in California most
OF the time since his election nearly two
years ago.
Sproat Bros. are we'll advanced with a
,16-acre clearing on their land, lately
bought OF P. Kopke. They will plant
the whole tract to apple trees in the
spring.
G.. b. Woodwork viii plant GOO Ben
Davis apple trees ON his 20-acre tract,
formerly part Of the Dethman place.
Preparation for planting is now in
progress.
Our school roll has grown to such pro-
portions that an assistant teacher be-
came an absolute necessity, and Mrs.
Margaret Reid now has charge OF the
primary classes. This is q great relief
to Prof. Chastain, and much better for
the pupils and all concerned,
To the credit OF our farmers, not one
has applied for exemption from road
work under the law passed by the last
legislature, which allows rebate on
taxes TO ailA owners OF Wide-tire wagons.
The general disposition throug hout the
district is to give extra road work rather
than ask for rebates. Ii a law were en-
acted forbidding dealers to bring mar
row-tire wagons into the state, some
good might follow. The question of
good roads is at present receiving an
unusual amount OF thoughtful consid-
Grafton among East Side residents. AS
the apple crop and other business grows
greater, traffic during the rainy season
increases at corresponding rate, and it
is absolutely necessary that the mud
sloughs on the road between VIM. Foss
place and town be abolished. Macad-
am, or something just as good, is all
that will fill the bill.
The entertainment and basket social
given at Pine Grove on Thanksgiving
eve was quite a success. Baskets sold
at prices ranging from so cents to $i.25.
A refreshment stand also contributed to
the net proceeds, which was something
over $50. The money will be used to
enlarge our school library.
