money he was worth he always knew that he had
that dime il some one hadn't found it and the

GOOD ADVICE.

Don't be glum and gloomy
If you can't have what you like
Some day coming, maybe,
You will make a strike.
Luck will come and find you
Some delightful day.
Anyhow, just think So
It's much the better way.
Meanwhile just becheery,
Meet life with smile.
The boy is always happy
Who is whistling all the while,
When you meet misfortune
Don't let if knock you flat.
inst be glad you're living.
And let it go at that.

President W. F. Nelson sent force
of 80 men, with 12 teams. out to the
mouth of the Des Chutes river last
week to begin work on the grade.
The force will be increased daily
an6 the company has planned to COM
plete the road In two years. The
present survey is 106 miles long, be-
gins at the mouth of the Des Chutes,
terminates at Madras, and is tributary
to a vast irrigable region in the vicin-
ity of the junction of the Des Chutes
and Crooked rivers. which will in the
future he one of the greatest wheat

Mr.. Gordon says the grade Is an
easy one, equaling the north bank
grade in this respect, and is the only
easy grade connecting the southern
transcontinenta lines with the north
ern.
With the exception of a very few
cases. right of way has been secured
