TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE,

An exchange tells of the excellent re-
suits obtained in manual training in
an English school, the plan being d
school garden. The plan provided each
pupil of proper age with garden patch
80 feet long and nine feet wide. Three
feet at one end Of each patch was de-
voted to flowers and an equal space at
the other end given 10 lush fruits; the
remainder was planted with vege-
tables. In the first year of the expert
ment the loss to the school was about
s12 an acre, but the work was continued
and with the training OF the children
better results were obtained, so that
last year the school made a profit of
about $500 an acre. The report adds:
Before the gardens were formed the
site produced not shiIling's worth Of
food for man or beast. 1t was an un-
cultivated gravel bed many feet in
depth, known from time imniemorial as
Hungry HILL"

THE AsmRlAN PUBLISHING co,
THE TREATING HABIT.

Various contemporaries havA made
comment upon the treating habit, says
the Tacoma Ledger. II is habit so
bad as to be indefensible. 1t is not
only bad. but absurd. A man goes
into a soloon with intent to take drink
He finds there group of friends.
According to the prevailing ethics he
may not take his own drink without in
yiting these friends TO join him. Each
one Of the group feels it incumbent
upon himself to do the honors in turn.
The result is that man who wanted
one drink, and perhaps would have
been no worse for it, gets half dozen
or more. and mentally. physically and
in pocket is worse for the experience.
In some states there has been an at
tempt to legislate against this prac-
tice, but legislation win never have
the slightest effect. The reform must
be through the Individual. No man
would hesitate upon entering haber-
dasher's shop, to buy all the collars he
needed, and he would not feel the slight
est impulse to ask his friends whom he
might find present to take collar with
him. The rule to apply is the plain
rule of commonsense. Abolish the
treating habit and there would be far
less drinking, and there would be few
er exhibitions of men with more liquor
in them than they could carry with
grace and ease. To take drink at a
bar and refrain from asking all OBJ
servers to join is test of courage.
The man who does it is likely to be
called stingy, but far better to be CALI

health in an endeavor to be good fell
low. for the sort of good fellowship
thus established is wholly without sta
bility, and, while it lasts, is valueless.
II man desires to take drink and
has the price, the affair is in large
measure his own. 1t is an imposition,
10 expect him to buy drink for some
body else, or to accept the drink ten
dered by somebody else. Through
treating there are drunkards made and
extravagant practices established. Oft
en- the man solicited would rather be
excused, but feels that to do so would
be violation of courtesy. A far nicer
courtesy would be in refraining from
asking him to drink.

ROT AND NONSENSE.

The supplements of the Sunday pa
pers simply reek with rot and nom
sense. The space writers have gone
daffy in their nervous excitement Of
trying to find something new. Inven-
tion. whieh is legitimate, has been sue
eeeded by bughouse imagery. Particu-
larly is this true in the "woman's

tained halftone pictures of a woman

her left ear. A column or so of ex-
planatory type accompanied 1t. Sun

WONDERFUL WORK.
Lots Like It Being Done Right Here
In Astoria.

Astoria people are surprised at the
work being done by "The Little Con-
querer.' Public expression on the sub
ject brings the matter frequently be-
fore the people. At first there were
many doubters and why not? So many
claims of a similar nature have been
made with little or no backing, except
ing the word Of some stranger residing
in a far-away place. this evidence was
accepted for lack OF better. Not neces-
sary to accept it any longer. All suf-
ferers from any kidney i'll can find pl-
enty OF local endorsement for REM
edy that will cure them. Surely the
wonderful work Of Doan's kidney pills
right here at home is proof sufficient
to satisfy any skeptic. Read the ex-
preston Of Portland man on the sub
ject:

Lumber company. foot of Lincoln street

depressing lameness around the small

1t continued to grow worse and finally

often attacked with dizzy spells; specks
appeared before my eyes and had no
ambition or energy. In the morning

In fact I had all the symptoms OF
very severe case of kidney trouble.
When I was suffering the worst read
about Doan's kidney pills and procured

ing across my back soon disappeared.
