The Value Of . sunny Soul.


The world is too full of sadness and
sorrow. misery and sickness: 1t needs
more sunshine; It needs cheerful lives
which radiate giadness; 1t needs en-
couragers who win lift and not bear
down. who win encourage, not dis
courage.
Who can estimate the value of sun
ny soul who scatters gIadness and good
cheer wherever he goes, instead Of
gloom and sadness? Everybody is at
tracted to these cheerful faces and
sunny lives, and repelIed by the
gloomy, the morose. and the sad. We
envy people who radiate cheer wher-
ever they go and fling out gladness
from every pore. Money. houses, and
lands look contemplate beside such a
disposition. The ability to radiate sun
shine is a greater power than beauty,
or than mere mental accomplishments.

The Fortunes Of War.

The head Of one of the most famous
packing houses In Chicago uses as a
pet phrase, "'Tis the fortunes Of war"
1t is said that at a recent family gath
ering at his home, a small grandson
overheard his grandfather's remark
that he had closed a very profitable
beef contract with a representative Of
the Russian government, previous to
the opening of hostilities with Japan.
Grandpa" plped the small boy, "if
you make lots and lots OF money then
will that be the fortunes of war9"

The Habit o. Investlaatlno.

Don't tie yourself or your money up.
Don't risk all your savings In any
scheme, no matter how much II may
promise. Don't invest your hard
earned money In anything without
first making thorough and searching
investigation. Do not be misled by
those who tell you that II Is "now or
never" and that, II you wait, you are
liable to lose the best thing that ever
came to you. Make up your mind that
II you lose your money you will not
lose your head. and that you will NOT
invest IN anything until you thorough
ly understand all about II, There are
plenty OF good things waiting. II you
miss one there are hundreds of others:
People viii tell you that the opportu-
nifty win go by and you will lose a
great chance to make money If you do
not act promptly But take your time
and investigate. Make 1t q cast-iron
rule never to Invest in any enterprise
until you have gone to the very bot
tom OF II, and, II ii Is not so sound
that level-headed men viii put money
in It, do not touch II. The habit Of In
vestigating before you embark in any
business win be happiness protector
and an ambition-protecto as well.

EXHIBITS ARE ATTRACTIVE

Worlds Fair Grounds, st. Louis.
June f6.--Developmen Of oregon's
mines will doubtless receive a great
impetus az result OF the excellent
exhibit made by the state in the min
Ing building at the Louisiana Purchase
exposition. The value and extent of
oregon's mineral resources are shown
In great detail. and the display cannot
but prove beneficial to the mining in
terests OF the state.
Fred n. Mellls OF Baker City, who
has been appointed superintendent Of
the mining exhibit by the oregon state
commission. has expended much hard
labor collecting and labelling the specl-
mems which he gathered from all parts
of the state. All OF the valuable mug
gets and quartz are In show cases.
while the large pieces OF low valued
ore are exhibited on tables in the dis
play space. In the center Of this space
is small house used as an office which
is covered all over the outside with ore
from different Oregon mines.
One Of the most interesting cases In
the exhibit contains fine specimens Of
valuable minerals used for manufac-
turing purposes. Pure white caolln,
a rare clay for porceiln- making, is on
display as well as asbestos In It's nat
ural state. Kypsum, mineral paints
and cinnabar are also among the more
important minerals in this exhibit.
Clnnabar Is a mineral containing sui
phide OF mercury. a red compound,
from which mercury itself can be ex-
traeted by the proper refining process.
II is found in but few places on the
globe. and that from southern Oregon
has proved TO be OF god quality
A glance over the mining building
shows great diversity Of ideas on
displays. Some states have
gone to the extreme OF surrounding
small and poor exhibits with excel
lent installations In other words,
what little merit the display ever had
is lost sight Of by comparison with
fine carpentry work and decorations.
Some states have gone to the other
extreme and have put In as little deco
ration as possible. Mr.. Mellis has en-
leavored to strike happy medium. so
that his minerals are neither over
shadowed by installation nor made
by It's absence.
The great Treadwell mine OF Alaska
has recently installed as part OF the
Alaska exhibit a pyramid OF gold
bricks. representing the s22,0O0.OOO
taken out OF the mine since its estab-
Ishment.
Pure gold displays always attract |
attention. from visitors and oregon is
fortunate in having a good exhibit OF
bricks, nuggets and rich gold produc- /
ng ore to show Colorado, Montana,
Ind especially Canada, have excellent
displays OF the pure metal, that always
BRING crowds around the exhibits.
Altogether oregon's mining display
$ credit to the state, and will aid
in getting the knowledge
II her resources spread abroad among
EASTERN people. There is an idea in
his part Of the country that all Ore
ron produces is timber and a little
yrain, but the worlds fair will do a
;reat deal to dispel this Illusion.
