Be Glad OF Another's Success.

Teach yourself early in life to be
glad of another's success, sorry for
another's failure. The moment you
entertain the opposite feeling, you
invite ultimate disaster to your life.
The thoughts you send forth will come
to you as events, finally. Thought Is
the main road to happiness. As you
think. go shall your life be. Circum,
by intense thought-action. Happiness
Comes from neither. Every day we
hear and read of successful men and
women Judged from the worldly stand
point, who are miserable and un.
happy. The suicide Of the rich and
fheless, prosperity, friendship, success,
and, best of all, love. add greatly to
the happiness of a happy mind:-Ells

Letter to

Letter to
Dear Sir; But few of the men who
sell the hundred different paints In
the market know much about them.
All Devoe agents have state chem
ist's certificate telling just what 1t is
made Of; they know good deal, not
only about Devoe but the rest; We see
hat they do. We buy every paint,
that has any sale. and analyze It..
Our agent finds out all about it.
When we know what paint Is
made of, we know how to act; we
know how far it goes, and how long 1t
wears,
Devoe is the standard |; call it 100.
The best of the rest is about rs; the
worst about 25; rest are between.
But the men, who sell them, don't
know any better. They know what
the maker tells them. That is; they
know that he tells them. They don't
know whether he tells them the truth
or not.
The business is not conducted on
knowledge the less they know, the
more comfortable they are.
Yours truly

A CURE FOR HYDROPHOBIA.
Judge Breckinbridge Expresses Con-
fidence In His Remedy.

Lexington, KY, May l5.-Judge
Breckinbridge says;
zone ounce and a half of elecam-
pane root bruised is put into a pint OF
new milk and reduced one-half by
boiling. Take it all at once in the
morning, fasting until afternoon, or
at least not eating until several hours
have passed. The second dose should
be the same as the first. except two
ounces of the root are needed. The
third dose should be the same as the
second. Three doses are all that are
needed for the cure. This medicine
can be given at any time before the
spasms come upon the bitten person.
A dose for horse or cow should be
three or four times as large as that
for person. From my own expe-
renee and from witnessing the effect
ON Others know that this remedy will
cure"

Shecpnnn Flned.

A jury In Justice Mack's court at
Prairie City last Friday declared p. J..
'Connally, prominent sheepman OF
.Malheur county, guilty of illegally
holding and moving sheep on the
ranges without sufficient permits from
the stock inspector. He was fined
$3.50 and costs by the court, from
which sentence, by his attorney, V. G..
'Cozad, moved time and gave notice of
an appeal to the circuit court.
The case was brought by Stock In
spector George Irwin. The defense set
up the plea that the stock had been
properly inspected and passed by
Stock Inspector Murray of Malheur,
who failed TO issue the permit because
his deputy was not supplied with
blanks, and that he was informed that
a letter to this effect would be for
warded to Inspector Irwin. This letter
had not reached Mr.. Irwin, and the
jury found for the plaintiff, This fact
led to an appeal, at which time all the
facts in the case will be established.
The defendant had leased range in
the forest reserve in district No. 2,
comprised in the counties of Grant,
Harney and Malheur.-Grant County

Had Two Fires I'm Two Weeks.

There Is an old saying that light
ming never strikes twice in the same
place. A. NJ. Carlton, the threshing
machine man has lost faith in 1t, as
last week he experienced a big loss
through fire while at work in M.
Vannices field, which destroyed the
grain from about 40 acres. Again
on Tuesday of this week, on the same
ranch, a spark from his engine set
fire to a straw stack which burned
up as well as lot of sacked grain
and a portion of stack that had not
yet been threshed.
1t is estimated that the grain from
about b2 acres was destroyed, which
is covered by insurance. Mr.. Carl
toms engine is provided with a spark
catcher of approved style and he has
used the engine several years, but
never had a fire before last week.
