COMMON SENSE NEEDED.

1t is high time that a lot Of ex-
perimenting doctors and yellow Jour-
naiists quit soaring the people to
death every day. More than one-half
the illness of today is caused by live
ly imagination fostered by detailed
publication of the theories of doctors.
They may act from the best motives,
but It would be as well IL good deal
of their theorizing were confined to
medical journals, where it would be
read by those who can take 1t for

HOME INVESTMENT FIRST.

A friend at our elbow suggests that
1t might be a good thing for the AS
toria citizen to quit finging his money
abroad in bum oil stocks, In bunco
mining stocks, and all untoward ven
lures that take his money away from
home and yield him no increment
whatever, except such as comes with
the conviction that he has been an
ass.
The get-rich-quick money he sends
out of his home city might have been
invested in lot here, and If he could
not have put put house on 1t or
otherwise improved it, he could have
raised cabbages or onions or some
thing else, or have planted 1t to fruit,
or done some turn that would have
netted him the taxes at least, and
the property would have paid him
handsomely in the near future.
If you have not enough faith in your
home place to invest some money in
1t, you are bereft Of the first impulse
TO good citizenship. Our friend is
right In his structures. It should be
Astoria for the Astorians.

COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE.


Among the hundreds OF good things
that are being inroduceT daily in
the business world OF the country, Is
the afternoon board meeting, and the
abandonment OF the night session, ese
pecially in public affairs Councils
committees, direotorates, trustees.
and all other commercial bodies are
taking UP the day session, and leav-
ing the business mans evening udis-
tubed for his rest and decreation and
II is time Astoria should be falling
In line. There Is no reason why the
council, the school board. the park
commission, all public committees,
should not hold their sessions from
2 p. m. to 8 p. m. The hour taken
from mans business does not in-
iure him one whit more than when
1t Is taken from his home leisure, nor
as much, because In attending the
meeting In the business hours OF the
day he Is In the business humor and
his mind Is in touch with men and
affairs and II Is easier to transact
business, than to relinquish It for the
dinner hour, and then take 1t UP
again just when he wants to rest. It
Is quite an innovation. but we would
like TO see It tried for the common
good Of all concerned.
