"Dreams and NIGHTMARES. /"

Under the title of Repes Capchemars Dreams and
Nightmares" DR.. II. II. Kane of New York publishes a
little volume Of short stories, which he says in his
preface he wrote for his amusement and for that of
his friends who like him studying the French language
that language 50 beautiful elegant musical so ex-
presve and which lends itself so well to the description OF
fantastic things"
As examples of French exercises, the stories which are
all in French are fairly well done. As literature they
afford new example OF the truth of the old proverb, NE
sutny ultra ctebidam" "le the cobber stick TO his last
Dr Kane saws he them for his and his friends
amusement There another proverb which he might have
remembered which Richard Brnsley Sheridan made for
the instruction of all workers in letters and which might
have saved the from the critics and the public from
some pain the proverb which says: Easy writing u
damned hard reading
MANY Of the stories professedy nightmares those
which are dreams bad dreams
The illustrations by Mr.. Alfred j. Dewey and Mr.
Monroe are fairly we'll done But the stories themselves
amaterish The book paper bound with red illustrated
cover and looks from the outside like book OF French
stories by Frenchman The inside contains stories il
Fronch but there the resemblance ceases.
The author dedicaes his book TO his which he apos
roDbzes as redoubtabe instrument OF Satan. Truly If

Yakima's Increased Fruit Crop.

The increased fruit production of the
Yakima valley during the past season is
a matter of some surprise. even in this
section, where the extension of horticul-
tural productions are going forward up
on a remarkable scale. Through Or
ganization the growers have likewise
made an excellent showing in the mar
keting of their products, in the face of a
generally large fruit crop locally and
throughout the country.
AS the production of fruit increases
from year to year, the real benefits of
organization to growers will become
more apparent. Without it, buyers will
make their own prices. With it, grow
ers will be able to secure fair market
price for what they have to sell. As
the organization develops facilities, not
only for studying markets and placing
consignments advantageously. but es-
tablishes and maintains rigid grading
of shipments that buyers can depend
upon, it's benefits will be enhanced, not
only to the producer, but to the pur-
chaser as well.-West Coast Trade.

Will They Call Again?

The society editor of the Lind Leader
doesen't seem to care whoop for prece-
dent or established rules. He has a
style peculiarly his own. His stuff reads
well, but he is breeding for himself a
heap of trouble. Below is his latest eu-
logy. If he survives, it's dollars to dough-
nuts that he will seek some other than
the newspa per field in which to give his
genius full swing:
-Four young ladies, bellies of the burg,
were out making ante-New Years calls
few evenings ago and the Leader office
had the honor OF being on their list.
The callers were; Misses Archie Sail
berg, Johanna VanDellen, Earlette
Copp and Archelle Norton. The ladies
were in full dress and their togs were
perfect poems-spring poems.
Miss Sallberg, who is tall and fish
policy, was in black, trimmed with sheep
pelts. She wore fetching little fall
haiti had evidently had hard fall.
Miss VanDellen wore simple gown of
extra pale green that fit her lovely form
to perfection-in spots. Her skypiece
was a picture hat-that should have
been turned toward the wall. Miss
Copp was as pretty as picture-a "be-
fore taking" picture-in gown of azure
organdy with train-whether demi
train or freight train, deponent saith
not She wore a summer hat that
looked like the tail-end of sunfower
patch hit by hard frost. Little Miss
Norton looked just too sweet for any
thing in a pale pink gown, cut la
Mamma Hubbard and decollette at both
ends. A dainty little summer hat was
perched-or rather had gone to roost-
upon her sunny curl. Yes it was a
summer hat, perhaps OF the summer
before-last, trimmed with whang-leather
dog-fennel and daisies.
The quartette was so horribly sweet
that everybody and everything-even
the Leaders mascot, the black purp
with the abbreviated tail-wanted to
steal 'em.
Call again girls. We are keeping the
shotgun loaded"

A New Hospital in Our City.

The Deaconess home of this city is
contemplating charging their work by
erecting nice new building for hospital
purposes next spring. The work of the
hospital is to be carried on under Dea-
coness management, which is an organ
ization in connection with the Method
list church. These ladies are trained
workers and unsalaried, giving their
time to the work.
The Deaconess hospital of Omaha, AS
bury Methodist hospital of Minneapolis,
Wesley hospital of Chicago, The Seattle
general hospital and many others in our
lar-e cities have been carried on by the
deaconesses for ten or twelve years and
have proved great success, and people
of all denominations have been inter-
ested in their work and given literally
to its support.
This is something the growing city Of
North Yakima is greatly in need of and
it is hoped that the public in general
will come to the front and give abund-
antly of their means toward the erection
of this building.
The Deaconess Board have purchased
four lots on the corner OF Maple and
South Sixth streets, and would like to
put up good substantial building, one
that will not only meet the demands of
the public but will also be pride and a
credit to the city, which is increasing so
rapidly in population. This hospital will
be benefit to the sick who may enter it
for care and treatment and an accommo-
dation to the merchants and business
men of the city.
1t is the intention of this Board as soon
as this institution is paid for and in rum
ing order to do all the benevolent work
possible, and to use all surplus funds for
such purposes, such as furnishing free
beds etc.
In the little home they now have at
5O2 North First street, with small &C.
commodations, the deaconesses have
been obliged to turn away from their
door an average of one patient day all
through the fall months, but the work
already done along the line OF caring for
the sick, has commended itself to the
public through the influence OF the pa
tients gone out from the home. Every
citizens of North Yakima and vicinity is
invited to encourage this work and be
prepared when the solicitor calls on
them for help, to respond most literally.
