The head aches, thoughts

Life becomes a round Of

not nourish, of sleep that
fails to refresh and of
resting that never rests.
That's the beginning of

For Better Service.

The citizens league has ap-
pointed a committee to urge the
matter of having the time of de-
parture of the S. P. passenger
changed from 1870 p. M, to 500
a. III. Another committee is en-
deavoring to impress upon the
same company the mutual benefit
to be derived by the city and
themselves from the establish
ment Of a Sunday service to Cor
wallis. By having the daily
train leave here in the morning
at S O'Clock and return at 7 p. NJ. i,
residents of this city would be
enabled to go to Portland, trans
act considerable business, and re-
turn the same day. The in
crease in traffic would no doubt
be considerable, and it would be
a good business proposition fol

Horning is just recovering frem an
attack ofthis disease. Insertion of
the needle developed the fact that
pus had formed, and the patient was

pus was removed. Mr.. Horning is
somewhat improved as result, and
if no complications ensue, he should

A Grand Re-Union.

The residence of Mr.. and Mrs
E. Allen, in this .eity, was the
scene of gathering of unusual
interest Tuesday. It was the
occasion of the 85th anniversary
of the birth of Mrs. Christina
Barker, mother of Mrs. Allen,
and she was surrounded on this
occasion by her children, grand
children and great grandchildren.
Two of her brothers were pres.
ent On this occasion, Ichabod
Henkle, aged 90 years, and Jacob
Henkle, aged rs years. Her
sister, Mrs. Mary King, aged 70
years, was also of the party.
The relatives present represented
four generations and numbered
about 80 people.
Ira Allen and family and Mrs.
Barker's son, William, and fam.
lily, Of Salem, were present at
the reunion. Harrison Johnson,
of Lebanon, aged SO years, was
over and made one of the cem-
pany On this memorable occasion.
Mr.. johnson was a member of
the train that Mrs. Barker and
husband crossed the plains with.
Mrs. Barker is one of the early
pioneers Of the state. Size was
born In Ohio in 1876 and crossed
the plains to Oregon in 1853.
That two sisters and two brothers
of the same family, the youngest
of whom is IS years old, should
be able to participate ia a gather
ing of this kind is very unusual,
and beyond a doubt no other
family n-Oregon can boast of as
many brothers and sisters whe
have reached their ages and who
are all living.

Sehior Entertainment.

GA Modern Ananias" to be given by
the senior class of the O. A. G. at the
opera house Monday evening is one Of
the most successful farce. comedies ever
written. The story is briefly this:
Lysander Lyon was in his infancy de-
serted by his mother and taken care of
by a bachelor uncle who grew immensely
rich in California. Lysander is made his
uncle's heir and goes TO Europe to study.
To inculcate economical habits he is re-
stricted to small allowance and meet
ing rich widow, whose hold on life is
slender, he marries her unknown to his
uncle. After his marriage he finds him
self step father to feshy old maid to
whom, on her mothers death, the ex-
pected fortune reverts. Meantime, the
uncle has become guardian of Nelly
Goldengate and decides that his two
wards should marry. Unknown to Ly-
sander he crosses the continent at tims
when that young man is paying sur
reptitious visit to America. Lysauder
meets Nellie ana scrapeS acquaintance
with her, but, owing to Francisco's blum
der, thinks her name is Prudence-the
name of her friend. In order to ayoid
a marriage with Nellie, whom he THINKS
he has never seen, he invents story to
tie effect that he is already married and
then the complications ensue. Finally
lie is forced to confess all his deceptions
except one-the truth about baby. Mel
lie forgives him and so does the uncle for
his fbs and also for his first marriage but
both imagine Baby to be little child
Then the truth comes to the surface,
when, by an almost superhuman effort ol
nerve, he marries his step-daughter to
his uncle ahd himself weds Nellie.

Yesterday morning, at her resi-
denee, Miss Margaret Shell gave
the young ladies Of the O A G senior
class a breakfast. At eight o'clock
the guests arrived and a mest deli
cious breakfast awaited them. After
the repast, four young ladies read a
paper each on the parlor, bedroom,
dining room and kitchen. The
papers were all very entertaining
as we'll as instructive. On the de-
parture of her young guests, Miss
Smell presented with a small book
of poems and picture, as souvenirs
Of the occasion.
Mr.. H. T. French, head. of the
committee now engaged in prepar-
ing Benton county's exhibit for the
coming state fair, is most anxious
to secure a specimen Of every vari-
ETY. of grass grown in this county.
There are considerably over 100 of
these, and there is no reason why
fine samples of each should not be
included in our exhibit. Mr.. French
is very enthusiastic and if farmers
will second his efforts, Benton
county will walk away with first
prize. Bring your specimens to
the Gazette Office, or let Mr.. French
know where he can get them. and
he will be glad to 60 after them.
The reading room building is
undergoing repairs. Wednesday
morning Charley Blakeslee began
the task of raising the building and
putting it on a good foundation.
In all probability new roof will
be put on the building. It is to be
painted and papered throughout
and everything finished in. first
class style. Underwood & Kerr
will do the painting and papering,
For years the reading room has
been kept up by the w. G. T. U. of
this city, and now they are having
all of these Improvements made.
To the W. O. T. U. much credit is
due for their efforts, but the public
generally have seemingly failed to
appreciate the privilege that has
been offered them.

given careful attention to the subject.
For many years past have made a
careful study of this question of ecopo-
my of space in the garden, and the
methods have learned to adopt in ro-
tation of crops-or perhaps l might
more properly say the doubling-up Of
crops-in my little garden may be a
suggestion to others along the same
line.
To begin with, when 1 SOW my first
early peas, which is just as soon as the
frost is out enough to allow spadng OF
the ground, first SOW the peas, and
then alongside the rows scatter some
lettuce seed and rake it in lightly. This
furnishes our first out-of.door lettuce,
entirely as a stolen crop, and with no
disadvantage whatever to the peas; for
land that is rich enough for peas will
grow the lettuce in addition, and not
retard or injure the growth OF the peas.
When large enough to thin out and
transplant, portion of these lettuce
plants may be taken up and set about
the borders of beds OF onions, beets,
carrots, etc, and between the rows,
where they will head up to full size, if

Then, when the tomatoes are ready
for planting out, have practiced set
ting these between the rows OF peas, as
before they are large enough to inter-
fere with each others growth the peas
are ready to be removed from the
ground, leaving the tomatoes to occupy
the whole space, and thus practically
securing three crops from this land.
When the early potatoes are removed
the land occupied by them is filled with
celery, cabbage and turnips, and we
frequently have planted these between
the rows Of potatoes before they were
dug, 80 as to have them we'll establish
