A Recipe For Health.

There is probably no prima donna In
the world who enjoys better health
than Nine Nordica. She is always we'll
and always in good spirits, all Of
which is doubtless due to the fact that
she has a secret recipe for health. Here
it is:
Indulge in temperance, exercise and
good humor.
Repeat the dose as often as possible.
Don't pay doctors bills.-New York
Herald

Glass Pastry boards.

The newest idea in pastry boards is
thick glass. The old time marble slab
is now said to absorb, whereas the
glass is quite impervious, hence much
more sanitary. Under the glass is
placed a thick sheet Of felt. A great
many kitchen conveniences are now
made of glass. Rolling pins and wash
boards are familiar, but glass rollers
for towels are not yet common.

CHARLES RUSSELL CAN TRACE
HIS INCARCERATION TO
FORGETFULNESS
Convict Who Sought Habeas Corpus
Failed to Give Patient a Dose
of Medicine

Charles B. Russell, the convict who
applied to Judge Brents a few days
ago for writ of hateas corpus, on
the grounds that the Clarks county
court had no jurisdiction in his case.
can trace his incarceration in the pen
itentiary to his failure to gice a pa
tient a dose of cough medicine.
How the failure to administer the
dose of medicine resulted in the crime
which Russell is expiating in the jute
mill at the prison, is told in letters
written by the prisoners wife in recent
applications to Governor Mead for a
pardon or parole for Russell.
These letters came after the COVER
nor had announced that he would not
consider any more pardon matters I'M
til after July 1, so no action was TAX
en- by the executive other than to ad-
wise Mrs. Russell to have the applica-
tons made out in the regular form,
WulCu pION1uCS LII dppION1l NY tAC II lcll
judge, prosecutor and others.
The letters from Mrs. Russell are
frankly penned, and recite the facts
in manner which is likely to awaken
deep sympathy. They differ from near
ly all other pardon applications, in
that there was no attempt to plead that
a crime was not committed. Mrs.
Russell says frankly that her husband
stole the heifer, the crime for which
he is serving time.
She admits that the theft should be
punished, but she argues that the pun
ishment already administered is suffi-
cient to satisfy the ends of justice;
points to her husbands faithful ser
vice under the flag, mis- previous ex-
cellent reputation, and then tells what
induced the theft.
Her story is about as follows: Her
husband served four years and six
months in the regular army in the
Philippines, and was spoken Of highly
by his officers. He was employed at
Vancouver as a nurse, and under the
mistaken belief that a certain patient
under his charge was attending to TAX
ing the medicine himself, failed to adj
this neglect Russell was fined $50.
Debts Were Pressing.
Russell was getting but s23 a month.
They had fitted up a little home, buy
ing furniture on the installment plan,
and paying $40 a month. Rents were
high, says Mrs. Russell, and it was
hard to live on the $13 a month left
after the furniture was paid for. The
$50 fine came as last straw. She says
her husband worried greatly, especially
when it appeared that they could not
pay the furniture installment, and
were about to lose the household
goods. Then Russell and another man
stole heifer belonging to the govern
ment and sold it to butcher, and Rus
sell used the money to pay off some of
their living expenses.
Since his arrest she has been try
ing hard to support herself. She fol-
lowed MIN to Walla Walla, where she
managed to get place where she can
earn SO week. She says she is not
well and that life is very hard. she
begs that her husband may be par
doned or paroled, so that he may be
with her and help make a new home
The lesson, she declares, will never be
again.

At the Bridge.

Comes the sigh of south wind light,
Blowing over blossoms white,
Tossing petals to the skies
Angel wings for paradise.
Trills the bird a carol clear.
Knowing that his mate will hear:
What cares he for other things
Than her gentle brooding wingsr
Winds the rivers tide along,
Dimpling at the robins song,
Smiling as the petals white
Drop and kiss its ripples bright.
River, wind and bird and flower
Feel the magic of the hour,
And I. gazing In your eyes,
Drift away to paradise.
