There are five White sisters, are
there not?'
Eyes, and old Mrs. White Is mighty
anxious to marry them off, only, as l
remarkedf before, why doesn't she go
about it the right way and teach them
a point or two? Well, there was Mary,
and she met a very attractive young
man at the GoOdbys' dance. They
waltzed three times and then Mary
asked him to call. He liked that well
enough, because Mary is u very pretty
girl. When he went to the house, how
ever, he didn't meet any of the family.
The parlor had all the lights turned
low, and there sat Mary propped up
against a pink cushion with pink
light near by falling on her hair and
face. Well, you'll admit that was rath-
er disquieting for young man who
had simply dropped in to have jolly
little conversation with girl he had
only met once before. Somehow or
other after he left he remembered the
conversation had been all personal.
Every time he tried to be bright and
interesting and talk about people or
things Mary dragged it back relentless
ly, and that worried him little.
"Then, after two days, Mary rang
him up over the telephone at his office,
mind you. and asked him to go with
her somewhere. He was very busy,
and he refused. Three days later she
wrote him q note asking him to come
up that evening. and then she wrote
him another one reproducing him for
not doing so. Well. the young man be,

STATESMAN WELCOMES THE
ISSUE.

The Warren Construction company,
not satisfied with bringing a libel suit
for $4,000 against The Statesman
company, yesterday filed a second suit
for $4,000 damages against P. c. Hol-
land, business manager of The Even
ing Statesman, whom the company
charges with being responsible for a
news article published in The States
man last September calling attention
laid by the Warren company on East
Main street. 1t is plain that the main
The Statesman into silence on the paw
ing question that the Warren company
on it's own terms The Warren COM
pany blames The Statesman for the
against it's monopoly of paving con-
tracts, which resulted in an application
to Judge Brents to restrain the council
from awarding further contracts with
out fair and open competition. Judge
Brents granted the injunction, and the
Warren company has been deprived of
contracts amounting to 100000 which
were almost within its grasp.
1t is perhaps natural that the War
rem company should be very bitter and
resentful over it's loss of these big con-
tracts, and in it's blind rage it is max
ing a desperate effort to wipe out the
supposed cause of its discontinue.
But it's success with its libel suits will
be no better than it's success in the
injunction case. What it gets out of
The Statesman in the way of damages
will be poor recompense indeed for its
loss on paving contracts at it's own
terms.
The people of Walla Walla are not
yet ready to suppress the only news
paper in the city that dares to tell the
truth about all questions affecting the
taxpayers They know that if The
Statesman We're out of existence the
city would have no protection from
grafters and boodlers. For that reason
it will not be an easy matter to get an
intelligent jury in Walla Walla to
| award damages to the Warren COM
pany or any corporation or individual
about whom the simple truth has been
told in the interest of the public.
The Statesman will survive all the
libel suits brought against it or any
more that may be brought for the pur-
! pose of harassing the management and

FAMOUS LOVING CUPS.
King Halls Gift to the Barbers-A
Large Silver Bird.

From the Yorkshire Post.
To find the finest and most notable speci-
mems of the silversmith's and goldsmith's
skill it is not necessary to go only to the
Guild Hall or to the Mansion House in
London. Many of the older corporations
in the country have some very valuable
loving cups among their municipal regalia,
though, curiously, no attempt seems ever
to have been made to bring together in one
record adequate history and description
of them.
Then the guilds and companies, though
lacking all their former power in regulat
ing trade, retain much of their old-time
wealth. Not little of this is in the form
of plate. and cups naturally occupy the
most prominent place. Grace cups some of
them are named-thereby taking the uni
versity description-and the most famous
of all is the Henry VIII grace cup. which
belongs to the BARRIERS Company of Lon
don. With its four glcbular bells hanging
around the outer rim, this cup might well
excite the envy of even the most honest
collector of silverware, for every detail of
its sixteenth century ornamentation is per-
feet.
1t is said to have been stolen pawned
and sold, yet 1t still remains the most
priced item in the plate chest of the COM
pany. The name of the cup is derived from
the fact that King Hal was the donor,
while he was also patron. the grace cup

The cover carries the Tudor rose, port

FACTS ABOUT SOAP.
Chemical Properties of the "Rapid
- Washer Varieties

From the Literary Digest.
That those who buy soap by weight should
choose dry and hard kinds to avoid pur-
chasing water is advised ty a correspond
ent quoted in the, Lancet. This writer,
well-known English physician, says that
while investigating expenditures recently at
a large London hospital he found that
large quantity of soft soap was being used,
and that as this contained a considerable
percentage Of water the institution was
paying a very high price both for water and
for soap To quote the Lancet's article:
He suggests that the best and most eco
nomical soap for the purpose is dry soap
powder, especially when used in conjunc-
ton with a water softener or with boraX.
Forty tons or so of soft soap, he adds. were
used some little time ago at the launch of
new Cunarder, but they who manage
such things would never think of paying
the price hospitals pay, nor do railway
companies or hotels"
An eminent firm of soapmakers also
writes to the same paper that old-fashioned
soap made with tallow Is much superior to
that now generally used. To quote again:
1T would appear that in order to make
an Oil soap hard enough to form bar it
is necessary to introduce into 1t large
oil These two oils hitherto have formed
the basis Of the so-called 'rapid-washer
soaps Cocoanut or palm-kernel oils abb
sorb a much larger percentage of caustic
that the rapid detergent properties of these
soaps are due principally to the excess of
chemicals which they contain. 1t seems. to
US, therefore, time to send warning note
to the public to induce them to return to
the good old-fashioned soaps of their faith
ers soaps which washed but did not de-
stroy the clothes irritate the skin, and,
although it Is claimed that the oil soaps
can be used with less labor, their destruct-
i've properties should not be lost sight Of
While on this subject We should like to ask
why the most refined of all soaps-namely,
olive oil soap-unless 1t is specially asked
for, is hardly ever supplied to the public.
One difficulty at least will very shortly have
to be faced by the soapmakers who employ
cocoanut oil and palm-kernel oil for the
preparation of the rapid-cleansing variety
of soaps, and that is that these oils are
being very largely used for edible purposes
and there can be little doubt that modern
ingenuity is such that they even masquer-
ade as butter. 1t is probable therefore,
that this fact will tend to raise the price OF
these oils unless a cheaper substitute is
found Such substitute has not yet been
discovered"

Don't Trot the Baby.

1t takes more than one thing - make
a baby strong or keep it so if it was b.rn
that way but none is more important
than not to overeXcite it. l am apral cd
at the risks 1 frequently see young
mothers take with the nervous system If
their infants by stimulating the little
things with noises of various kinds, o. by
having it constantly in the presence Of
strangers. 1t is a great temptation,
know, to you young mothers - show
your baby especially when 1t is tn first.
and family friends are most eager II see
it: but refrain, or, at least, be moderate.
babys brain is very delicate piece
of mechanism, and positive trea tment 81
fects it decidedly one way or the ether
The physical condition is apt to he d.
rectly in accord or to be quite literal! L
nervous baby is never physically strong.
Given proper surroundings that Hiil
quiet and not excite there will be no
danger of a baby's developing into a
nervous and eXcitable child, type that L
grieve to say is increasing.
Do not think by quiet l mean x een;pg
everything as still as mouse and never
letting the baby be among persons An
infant needs amusement and relaXat'oI,
but amusement doesn't mean taking y on
your knees and trotting the digestive
organs upside down. / know our fore
mothers trotted all their babies for gen
erations and we are a healthy race ut
that doesn't follow that trotting IS The
best thing. To the contrary, it ray he
really injurious. causing disturbance
that will prevent digestion, and THIS is
true even some time after feeding.
One of the best ways of amusing baby
is to put it on the floor alone AMI let it
amuse itself. Only the simplest kinds "f
toys should be about. a soft ball, 4 rattle,
a woolly dog or the like. Complicated or
elaborate toys for little children are a
mistake, and an infant does not get as
much pleasure as from primitive thing.
AS baby will try to put everything into
its mouth painted toys should not be en-
couraged, and woo1ly or soft ones mast
be strong enough not to tear easily. -ise
the bite will be swallowed.
A baby put on the floor with half
dozen little things to play with will soon
learn to amuse itself in the best possible
way 1t will not. however, if you play
with it. baby is tremendously bright
and soon learns to know who will amuse
and who will not. And it will get all thI t
is necessary without constantly helping
it on.
