FOR ATTENDANCE

AS will be seen by the monthly re-
port of the Frankton schools as given
below, the percentage of attendance is
97.77, and punctuality, 99.77 for the two
schools in the district. What other
school in the state with anyway near
the same attendance can equal this
record?

Handsome Apples From Mount Hood.

G. G. Ruff, on his way to Portland
last Friday, was exhibiting some of his
fine apples grown on his fruit farm at
Mount Hood. The Kings he showed to
the Glacier reporter were indeed beau
ties. They we're highly colored; so
much so that it would be difficult to
find Spitzenbergs to excel them. The
Kings were four-tier apples. Some
Spitzenbergs he displayed, while not go
large, were nicely colored, and on fruit
stands would retail about two to five
cents.
Mr.. Ruff owns what was formerly the
p. f. Fouts ranch. He has about ten
acres in bearing orchard, and has kept
grubbing machine busy all summer
clearing land on which he will plant
more apple trees. Mr.. Ruff also has an
extensive clover patch.
Mr. Ruff is the proprietor of grocery
store in Portland, and when he displays
these samples of fruit in his show cases
he should have no difficulty in securing
orders for his entire crop at top notch
prices.

fatal sickness begins with cold. If we
could tell the common cold from the un-
common we could feel quite safe. But we
can't. The uncommon variety is rarely
recognized until it has fastened its hold on
the lungs, and there are symptoms OF con-
sumption.
At the first symptoms the careful person
will heed the warning by taking a mild
laxative; some vegetable pill that will not
disturb the system or cause gripping. About
the best is Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets"

persists then some local treatment for this

IN IA ND WRITING.

There is fashion in handwriting
lust as there is fashion in clothes;
but, fortunately, the modes of cali
graphy change with less weathercock
like facility than those of chiff.ns
do.
There is al vast amount of char
acter revelation in handwriting; so
perhaps even if it became the vogue
to alter the handwriting as often as
the hat, women would be unable to
conform to the ,u'e, SAYS "Home
Chat"
But to return to the question OF
style, or f..shion. The woman who
writes what is called the Italian hand
has almost died away with the cd
days in which the penny post was
real art. We scribble now, whereas
when twenty-hours went further than
they do now women produced won
ders in the art Of caligraphy.
The gentle nutured and carefully
educated girl Of the very earliest days
wrote sloping hand, formed her let
ters clearly and carefully, made very
long tops and tails to those letters
that require them, and took a pride
in forming up strokes with delicate
6neness, falling off again to fine,
light flu sh.
She was very particular about the
formation of her capital letters. n~'ng
ma, y qnaintly wonderful fl .ur'sh;
and she endeavored, as best she might
IN her closely lined pages, topreselve
m even line, employing sometimes
rul. d note paper, or using beneath her
paper sheet of ,ul. d paper, the lines
of which CLEANED through the top
sheet and pr. we'd a guidance to he,
pen.
Many Men of culture and refine
ment a'so adopted the Italian style OF
handwriting. Th'se who Lave seen
the 81 gnature Of that great surgeon,
Sir James Paget, will ,ecollect the
sloping character Of he caligraphy,
light and dark and up and down
strokes ard tie length of the Topped
letters. But in Sir James Paget's
case, as in that of many other men of
his marvell, us intellectual power and
unobstrusive modesty, flourisles of a
pronounced type were absent.
Miss Braddon's handwring tends
toward the Italian style with pointe d
letters, well defined tails, and dis
tinct difference between the up and
down strokes.
1t used to be cruelty said of women
who wrote an Informed, uLdecipher-
able hand, that they were unable to

men cou'c be blamed for bad spell ing.
Until the standard or photography
was s,ttled, how was it possible for
anybody to spell correctly? Still,
there is no doubt that until girls We're
as carefully educated as their brothers
numbers of them did adopt form Of
handwriting that left the spelling OF
their words most questionable as re-
garded accuracy.

Monster Beds.

Though the beds Of the royal per-
sonages of England were elaborately
carved and hung with rich curtains
even so late as the Tudor period, 1t Is
recorded that King Henry Wills bed
contained only straw beneath all Its
finery. A curious order exists as to
precautions to be taken against the
possibility Of intended mischief to the
royal person in the making of the bed,
for the usher was to search the straw
through with a dagger, that there be
none untruth therein, and to tumble
over on the down bed for the better
search thereof" The bed of Henry
VIII. was nearly eleven feet square,
and of even more generous dimensions
is the great bed to which Shakespeare
refers in well known passage In
"Twelfth Night" which was twelve
feet square. This great bed of Ware
has been a marvel for centuries.

The old Teutonic and Saxon races
IA central and northern Europe. be-
fore the Introduction and spread Of
Christianity, had Il great veneTtion for
drees. They would never willingly
damage them. Under large trees, espc-
cally old oaks, the great councils
we're held and Judgment given, and the
graves of this people were found In
groves, they always being buried un-
der the roots of tree. This nll was n
result of the superstition that their
gods lived I'm those trees. In the linden
tree Berchta dwelt, benign spirit who
took charge of the babies and rocked
their cradles when the nurses fell
asleep: In the oak, Donar, the thunder
god; in the willows all sorts of spirits,
in the elder trees the dwnrfs. When
ever the festivals of these gods were
celebrated their trees were decorated
with lights. wrenths and questen (tns-
sels), and offerings were hung In the
branches, which, however, were plum
dered again when the festival was
over, the gods being supposed only to
appropriate the best.

The camel is n good soldier, says n
London writer. 1t may be stupidity,
and 1t may be bravery, but camel Is
as steady under fire as a tower. The
Persans mounted small cannon on the
backs of their camels and called them
zambwahs, or 'little wasps." This
fashion was adopted in India, and aft
er the battle of Sobraon 1000 Of these
artillery camels were captured. In the
Indian mutiny the British had cam
el corps of $50 beasts, and on the back
of each camel sat Scotch highlander
in his kilt. In 1S45 Sir Charles Napier
had camel corps in Sindh, and in one
day he marched seventy-fve miles,
defeated brigand chief and marched
home again. In 1878 the British used
camels against the Afghans, and the
government paid for 10000 camels that
died in those campaigns. Many OF
these were driven to death by their
owners in order that they might claim
the government bounty.

Altering Stamps.

No change or alteration of any sort
should be made by collector in his
stamps. 1t was custom some years
ago among collectors to erase cancella-
ton marks from their stamps in order
to make their stamps better The eff
feet of the attempt was not all that
could be desired. The erasures We're
not perfect, and the stamps in the
changed condition, being neither can
celed nor uncanceled, were simply in
ferior damaged specimens. One of the
most common ways of altering stamps
at the present time is to erase the word
specimen" from n stamp having this
overprlnt. 1t cannot be done so that it
will not be detected. and the stamp In
the altered condition is worthless.
