clamation of delight; land of course

sigh and blush. Mine was love

matches, it has turned out very well.

she laughed.
They drove up to the house through
quaint garden in the Dutch style,
and Lord Ferndale came down the
steps. He was dressed in a white
linen suit, with a straw hat, and a
smile beamed over his handsome face
when he saw who it was his wife had
brought home.
Behold the captive of my bow and
spear Edward"
"This is a delightful surprise, Lady
Norah," he said, taking her hand and
holding it with a gentle pressure
I'm awfully glad to see YOU"
The Earl Of Arrowdale would have
gone to the stake rather than utter
such a word in his welcome to lady.
but to Norah it sounded delicious.y
hearty, and she looked at Lord Fern
dale with shy gratitude in her dark
eyes.
Lady Ferndaie took her to her own
room. and begun at once to make a
daughter of her, insisting upon unfas-
tening the long coils of redlbrown
hair with her own hands, and petting
her to her hearts content
The earl and countess were alone
and all through dinner-which was
less stately than the meal at Santleigh
Court. and not in the least formal
they Wed with each other in making
her feel at home.
Lord Ferndale had seen deal of
the world, both the great and the
small, and he hada set himself to
amuse the beautiful girl with whom
he and his wife had fallen in love at
first sight, and presently Norah forgot
that she had known them for only SO
short time. and talked, too.
Lord Ferndale glanced once or
twice at his wife, and the glance said
plainly:
1--WE have found treasure; a young
woman who is not only pretty, TUT
clever and sensible"
Now, while you are drinking your
claret Edward, Norah and I will have
quiet ramble; and IL you are good,
very good, we will give you some
music when you come into the draw
ing-room"
II will be virtue personifed," he re-
sponded, as he opened the door for
them. 'and mind, only give you half
an hour"
Lady Ferndale took Norah into
some of the old, time-honored rooms,
her arm round Norah's waist, and
they sauntered among the flower beds
In the delicious evening until Lord
Ferndale came out of the drawing
room window and called to them.
Times up" he said "and teas
waiting"
Just as II Norah were indeed, a
daughter of the house Lady Ferndale
drew her gently to the chair in front
of the little table, and intimated that
she was to preside over the delicate
service of antique silver and Sevres;
and Norah, filled with happiness and
gratitude for the affection they were
lavishing upon her, poured out Lord
Fern6ale's cup of tea and gave II to
him with a.smile and a blush.

-Four teen Year-Old Corbett Griggs Dis
appears From Walla Waila.
Local officers have been notified to
be on the lookout for young Corbett
Griggs, who is missing from Walla
Walla, having left his home there
January s.
The boy, who is about IA years of
age, was sent up town by his mother
to purchase some goods. Several hours
passed, and when he did not return
the parents notified the officers, who
made search of the city for the
missing boy, but were unable to locate
him. Why he should choose to run
away from his home is not known, as
it is claimed he has had no trouble
with his parents and the last time seen
was in cheerful mood. 1t is thought
he will be heard from soon, in some
place where he has gone.
He wore, at the time of his disap-
pearance, black hat, dark trousers,
light colored coat, heavy light color
ed overcoat and alligator shoes. He
is described as having black hair and

ATHENA, JANUARY 10, 1906

Appertaining to the mans tempera-
ment and the wherewhichness of his
general construction, we would like to
know what the editor of the Baker
City Maverick "feeds :" on. Listen to
what he says:
merry Christmas Happy New
Year That's the greeting Of the sea-
son, though we all know that it is a
transparent fraud; that only children,
idiots and drunken fools or either hap
py or merry. There now, Maverick
will tell the truth, though the heavens
fall"
Well waste our fortune ON the
wager that the Maverick man is a
dead one; that be is grouchy old
"has been - that he never rubbed up
against the bright side of anything in
his life; that he is sour, old chronic
dyspeptic; stranger to the hand-clasp
of good-fellowship; that Gods sun
shine has never played hide and seek
in the cookies of his heart, and that in
the stream of life he is one of the
punctured bubbles that will never rise
to the surface.

credit Of the Oregon Development
League and the Oregon Press Associa-
tion is the forceful protest against the
term "Webfoot," as applied in facet
ious vein to the state of Oregon and
that of "mossbacks" as applied in the
spirit of alleged 'fun" to Oregon
ians. The people of Oregon are them
selves to blame for these designations,
though perhaps in the outset they did
not intend to cast slur upon their
state, its climate or its people by ac-
cepting them. These terms have, In
the light Of truth and civilization, be-
come reproach, and, instead of re-
buklng their utterances and the slur
that the words imply, too many of
our people have echoed them, or joined
in the laugh to which they have too
often given rise. 1t is high time that
these terms were discontinued, and
the misrepr presentation of Oregon eli
mate and energy for which they stand
be rebuked by loyal Oregonians. In
Western Washington, where the
rain fall is at least as great as in the
Willamette Valley. the people speak
proudly of their state as the lever
green state, 'and they have no sobri-
quet of scorn to bestow upon its citiz-
ems.
Oregon has been singularly lacking
in what may be termed family pride
in this respect, and in the stupid re-
iteration of stale jokes about the eli
mate. 1t is silly enough when a
Observation-Disclosures and self-satis-
fied--declares that it rains thirteen
months of the year in Oregon; but
we can accredit this exaggerated
speech to his ignorance and his intense
desire to be funny at our expense,
and let it pass. But when Oregonians
accost each other on the unusually
stormy, disagreeable morning with the
words, '"This is Oregon weather." or
"Oregon is herself again." and SINH
lar remarks refecting unjustly upon
the climate of Oregon, they betray a
disloyalty which deserves rebuke and
of which they should be ashamed.
State pride should forbid such ex-
pressions, even if truth were not dis
regarded, as it is, in making them.
Let Oregonians refrain from these be-
littling expressions. State pride is
closely allied to family pride, and they
who disregard the promptings of the
one or the other make blunder of
which decency and selfrespect are
ashamed.

So popular are Moorhouse pictures,
and SO great has been the demand for
the collection recently issued in book
form from the press of the East Ore
gonian, that second and larger edi-
tion will soon be under way. The
Athena Press is the recipient of a
volume of these celebrated Indian
pictures and views. Mr.. Moorhouse' g
fame as photographer long ago
became national, and his Indian
pictures have added life and color to
the illustrations of all the high class
as we'll as art publications. The
volume is worthy a niche in every
library in the land. In addition TO
the splendid Indian pictures, many
beautiful poems and sketches lend in
terest and enehantment to the pages.
geographically, the edition is excel
lent and the press work superb-the
sort that stamps the "E. o." print
shop as being in the front rank of the
good ones.

GIRLS AND CHAPERONs.
Spokesman Review.

A social contrast between Canada
and the United States was brought
out at meeting of mothers club in
Chicago the other day when Mrs.
Oldwright of Toronto expressed sur
prise that young women in Chicago
and other American cities are per
mitted to go to dances without chap
erons. Several women present who
have grown up sons deepened the
shock by declaring that not only was
this condition tolerated, but that
young women often invited their es-
corts over the telephone to take them
to dances. This lack of regard for
the conventions was deplored by the
club, and it was declared that it could
not be conductive to good results.
The subject is an excellent one for
discussion by mothers clubs every
where and for the members of those
! clubs to endeavor to bring home to
other mothers who are not in club cir
cles. That the condition so deplored
by these women do exist can not be
denied, but while American girls
pride themselves on the fact that they
are independent and selfreliant enough
to take care of themselves without the
aid of chaperon it must be admitted
that in the larger cities particularly
there are numerous occasions when it
would be much better for them if the
chaperon system was adopted.
There are, of course, many dances,
at private houses or in halls under
private auspices, and at which there
will be number of married women
and the mothers of many girls, at
which it would seem superhuous to
require the attendance of chaperon
simply for the journey to aud from the
house where the dance was being held,
but there are many occasions during
a season Of festivities when a closer
adherence to the old rule would be
desirable.
The remedy lies with the mothers,
but there are large numbers of
mothers who are as careless in regard
to the subject as their daughters and
who feel that the girls are wise enough
and strong enough to dispense with
any species of chaperonage.

The coal famine continues, and
Baker City seems to be in worse pre-
dicament from fuel shortage than any
other point in the Inland Empire.
Baker has all kinds of mines except
coal mines, hence in this respect the
coal famine may be felt more by the
people there than elsewhere. 1t is said
Baker City residents are resurrecting
wood stoves. 1t is good to hear that
some kind of resurrection has struck
the "new Denver" though it be a
cast-iron proposition.
