THE CAMERA FIEND.
Man Was Not Sa sisfied with Ordinary
Amusement Like Ticking
Pictures.

A well-known criminal lawyer one
day sauntered into police court just
as case was called. 1t appeared that
the defendant had no attorney, and
the judge glanced about the room to
see whom he might assign to the case.
"I'll take it, judge" the late conner
said, wishing to pass away the time.
by the way, Wat is the man
charged with?" the attorney presently
asked.
Hes a camera fiend OF the worst
sort, Mr.. Brown" the judge said
with slight smile. Il expect to send
him to the workhouse for about three
months"
What" the lawyer shouted, indig-
nantiy. 'Your honor must be joking.
Send man to the rock pile for three
months for little harmless amuse-
ment like taking pictures?"
WELL" the judge said, mildly, che
don't take pictures much-it's the
cameras he takes"

Nothing Succeeds Like @Eaa-o-sEE. y

The man who breaches the best SER
mon; the man who tells the funniest
stories; the man who keeps the best
store; or the man who makes the best
goods soon finds that people come to
him. Merit is the best advertisement
in the world. People speak we'll of
things they know are good. They pass
the good word along.
The best breakfast food is EGG-O-
SEE, for it contains all the life giving
properties of natures best food, which
is wheat.
EGG-o-SEE is deeply in debt to the
thousands of wives and mothers who
use it In their homes, for these good
women tell their neighbors about this
great food.
Children and aged persons alike are
friends of EGG-O-SEE.
Merit and common sense are the
things that advertise EGG-O-SEE
most. EGG-o-SEE is cheap. A 10
cent package contains ten liberal
breakfasts. EGG-O-SEE is sold every
where. Grocers must keep it If they
want to keep their good customers,
for good customers insist ON buying
EGG-0-SEE.
The fact that no preparation. no
cooking is required, makes EGG-O-
SEE very popular. Open the package;
put as much as you like in dish;
pour on milk or cream and eat. 1t
is delicious. 1t is wholesome. 1t
makes you strong.
A lot of interesting facts about
EGG-O-SEE have been published in
book form entitled. Back to Nature"

The Wireless Telegraph.

Heretofore arctic explorers, after
leaving their base of supplies, have
been cut off from all communication
with the more southerly world Hun
dreds of them have persisted in places
not so remote but that they might
have been succored had they been
able to communicate with their base.
In this respect, as in all other ways,
the Wellman expedition will differ
from all others, for direct communica-
tion, not only with the base on Danes
island, but with the commercial ca
bles of the world, is expected to be
maintained through the De Forest
wireless telegraph apparatus that
forms an important part of the i'm
pedimenta of the expedition. The
wireless telegraph service, like the air
ship, while not having been brought
to the highest stage of perfection or
certainty of successful operation,
nevertheless has become commercially
practicable and reasonably reliable.
Recent tests at sea have heightened

At q Township Primary.

Martin, who is very hard of hearing,
arose in the caucus and nominated
one Mr.. Brown for the Office of justice
of the peace.
Mr.. Brown promptly arose and de-
clined the nomination with thanks,
and while he had the floor he NOM
mated Mr.. Martin for the Office.
Martin, not understanding what
Brown said, but evidently thinking il
some modest remonstrance, arose and
said:

to more than 1000 miles without re-
lay. A complete wireless outfit forms
a part Of the expeditions apparatus,
and one of the five men who will
make the trip in the airship is an
expert wireless telegraph operator and
mechanician.
At Hammerfest, Norway, point in
touch with the Atlantic cable, the first
wireless station has been established.
Station No. will be at the base Of
the expedition on Danes island. and
wireless station No. 3 will be in the
airship. The aerial" which on land
and on sea-going ships is mast, in
this case will be a wire suspended
from the airship, and which can be
coiled up out of the way when not
in use. The experts in wireless teleg-
raphy have gone over the situation
in the light of conditions as they are
likely to find them in the arctic re-
gion, and have given 1t as their opin-
ion that there is nothing in these con.

DIDN'T BELIEVE
That Coffee Was the Real Trouble.

Some people founder around and
take everything that's recommended
but finally find that coffee Is the real
cause of their troubles. An Oregon
man says:
For 20 years was troubled with
my stomach. I was steady coffee
drinker, but didn't suspect that as
the cause. / took almost anything
which someone else had been cured
with but to no good. / was very bad
last summer and could not work at
times.
"on Dec. 2, 1902, l was taken so
bad the doctor said / could not live
over "a hours at the most, and
made all preparations to die. could
hardly eat anything, everything dis
tressed me, and was weak and sick
all over. When in that condition cof-
fee was abandoned and was put on
Postum, the change In my feelings
came quickly after the drink that was
poisoning me was removed.
"The pain and sickness fell away
from me and began to get well day
by day, so l stuck to it until now
am well and strong again, can eat
heartily, with no headache, heart
trouble or the awful sickness of the
old coffee days. l drink all / wish of
Postum without any harm and enjoy
1t immensely.
"This seems like a strong story,
but l would refer you to the First
Natl Bank, the Trust Banking Com
pany, or any merchant Of Grants
Pass, Ore, in regard to my standing,
and l will send a sworn statement
OF this If you wish. You can also use

ABOUT WOMEN.

Freshness is not to be despised in
women, vegetables or flowers.
A woman of gushing proclivities
Is apt to consider herself Irresistible
The woman who nags her husband
deservedly sits down to lonely meal
Wise is the woman who does not
expect mans devotion at election
time.
The woman who constantly quotes
her husband seldom realizes what an
intolerable bore she is to others.
A woman with a musical voice may
babble of coal dust and sauer kraut,
and sim compel you to think of lutte
strings.

that they can be knocked down and
assembled quickly and when such OBJ
stacles are met as they cannot over
come they can be taken apart and
hauled by the explorers over the hard
places.
In all previous explorations the
Eskimo dog has been the traction
mainstay of the explorers. While the
canine Of the north has proved of the
greatest assistance in reaching high
attitudes he has many drawbacks; but
from his mechanical successor Mr..

vantages of the real dog and none

Hartman Lines to Become Floral
PotfeS


Executive officers of the Union Pa.
cific road in Chicago are planning to
build several large greenhouses along
the main lines of this company in
Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah and other
districts, with the object Of having
at every table in every dining car
over the entire system a bouquet of
freshly cut flowers at every meal. In
addition to table and other decora-
lions 1t is planned to grow flowers
on a scale sufficiently large to allow
a free distribution of roses to women
and carnations, or other seasonable
flower, not only in dining cars but
to passengers in every car of every
train, and in winter as well as in
summer, the idea being to make
patrons feel that the flowers are a
part of the trip over this road and
not precious little souvenirs. The
greenhouses will probably be located
at Grand Island, Neb., Cheyenne,
Wyo., Denver, Col, and Ogden. Utah.
In California and in the territory of
the Sunset route in the south the
company has no trouble in getting
outdoor flowers all year. But even in
these districts the scheme of flowers
for passengers and car decorations is
TO be enlarged upon. Dining rooms
along all lines are to be supplied free
ly with plants and blooms. The Cali
fornia and southern resources with
the greenhouses to be built along the
central route will put the Union,
Southern Pacific and Oregon Short
Lines in position where they may
become known as the floral lines, an
appellation officers of the Harrimap
lines hope to merit.

New Electric Lamp.

DR.. Hans Kuzel, Vienna, claims to
have discovered new method OF
making the fllament for incandescent
electric lamps, which will burn for
$500 hours and give a strong light
to the end. The filament is said to
be made from common and cheap
metals and metaloids colloids in a
plastic mass which can be handled
like clay, and which when dry be-
comes hard as stone. Out of this
mass very thin wire threads are
formed.

in wireless telegraphy that nothing
short of a catastrophe which wrecks
the ship and renders all apparatus
useless will prevent the publishing
daily of dispatches from the explor-
ers sailing poleward in the monster
airship. AS the magnetic pole of the
earth has been found 1900 miles from
the mathematical pole, on the coast
of North America, it is reasonably
certain that at the mathematical pole
there will be encountered no magnetic
disturbances which will destroy the
usefulness of the wireless apparatus.

PURPOSE OF BILL OF SENATOR
5EVERIDGE AT NEXT SESSION
OF CONGRESS.

RICHMOND, Ind, Nov. 1S.-At a
meeting here today of representatives
of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
lions of Indiana and Ohio, Senator AL
bert ]. Beverage stated that upon the
opening day of the coming session of
Congress he intended to introduce a
bill prohibiting the labor of children
throughout the country, and a bill to
make more rigid the present meat in
spection law.
He said the child labor law will pro-
vide that no railroad, steamship,
steamboat or other carrier of inter
state commerce shall transport or ac-
cept for transportation the product of
any factory or mine that employees
children under IA years old. The bill
he said, would provide that every car
rier of interstate commerce shall re
quire an affidavit from every factory
or mine owner shipping it's product
that it does not employ children under
IA years Of age, the form of the affi-
davit to be prescribed by the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor or the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
with heavy penalties, both civil and
criminal, for violation of the law.
The bill to amend the meat inspec-
ton law will require the putting of the
date of inspections on every can of
meat product and the packers to pay
the cost of inspection.
