THE MAIL ORDER FAKE.
Humorous Letter to "MOnkey, Rober-
buck and Company.

John Nissen, the well known inn
plement dealer of this city, has just
received a copy of the Merchants
Trade Journal containing a humorous
communication, purporting to have
been written to Sears, Roebuck and
company of Chicago, the mail order
house which is being put out of busi-
ness by progressive home merchants
| in nearly every western community
The letter shows up so clearly the
methods and status of the big mail
order houses that the East Oregonion
takes pleasure in using it.
The latter is dated in a western
state and is as follows:

MRS. EDDY'S vINDICATIoN.
Attempts TO Take Her Liberty and
Her Property, Miserably Failed.

To the strong and constantly grow
ing circle of Christian Scientists of
Pendleton, the following excellent ex-
cerpt from the Arena Magazine of
October, on Mrs. Eddy's complete vim
dication will be of interest, The
Arena says:
The complete collapse Of the at
tempt to obtain Mrs. Eddy's property
and to discredit the founder of Chris
tian Science. came recently when

drawn we're entirely unwarranted by
the simple truth undoctored and un-
colored together with all the ingen-
ious methods of the reckless attor-
neys, who hoped to wni through
arousing prejudice where justice ana
evidence were wanting, has come 70
naught.
The case will go down in history as
the most remarkable trial involving
religious beliefs since the days Of the
Salem witchcraft and the persecu-
ton of the Quakers in New England.
Hypocrisy and false pretense marked
almost every step of the proceedings
in so far as the representatives Of the
so-called next friends" were con-
cerned.
The public was gravely Informed
that Mrs. Eddy was a hopeless inva-
lid unable to leave her room; that
she could not talk consecutively on
any subject any length of time; and
that she was "a prisoner in house
Of mystery" held in bondage by an
INSCRIPTIONS clique.
II was stated that there was no at
tempt on the part of the would-be
rescuers of this helpless prisoner to
reflect upon the religious belief en-
tertained by the Christian Scientists
and almost in the same breath the
religious teachings Of the founder OF
Christian Science were cited as evi-
dence of insanity.
Everything that was possible for
the shrewd and reckless counsel and
the black journals, which lent their
columns to the daily dispensing OF
sensational and misleading reports
was done to prejudice the public and
unconsciously influence the Judiciary

ACTIVITY IN RAINIER.
Iron Ore Discovered Near This Town
Reported the Past Two Weeks.

Rainier. the new town on the Co.
lumbia river about 45 miles north of
Portland, is showing great activity.
Being the only available townsite on
the whole Columbia river, and the
only point touched by the railroad,
it is securing numerous mills and
factories. During the last two weeks
great deposits of iron ore have been
discovered, which assayers claim to
be the richest in the United States.
At present eastern capitalists are
looking into Rainier and are consid
ering the advisability of building a
large iron and steel plant in the town.
The Importance of Rainier can be
judged from the fact that this port
is said to have shipped more lumber
during the month of April than any
other port in the world. On June
2S last the tramp steamer Kalabia
took out in one load 4,25O,OOO feet of
lumber.
The town is only three years old,
and now has monthly payroll eX-
ceeding 100000, and there is deposit
ed in the savings bank over 100000
which the workingmen of the town
have to their credit.
There are at present "a mills in
full operation, and numerous pros
poets for others. Rainier has about
six miles of harbor, all of which is on
the railroad thus affording advan-
tages for industries that no other
town on the whole river can possibly
offer.
On account of the rapid growth of
the town the people are just awak-
ening to the realization of the future.
A commercial club is organized and
has over 100 members, and the coun-
Gil has a rock crusher, road grader
and steam roller for paving purposes.
Rainier claims to be the only town.
site that has railroad and harbor
outside of Portland and its near
suburbs, in Oregon, below the mouth
of the Willamette, as the river is
either lined by high bluffs or with
overflow land, or the railroad is
shut off from the river by some
slough or low overflow ground. In
other words, Rainier aspires to be
the next town in Oregon or second |
only to Portland.
Small steamers are required to
bring the large shipments of wheat |
from eastern Oregon and Washington
down the Columbia river up, the |
Willamette to Portland on account of |
the upper river, but the, grain could |
be loaded on barkes and towed to |
Rainier with no up-current haul. |
There are boats plying to and from
the harbor at practically all hours Of |
the day, and nowhere is there a bet
ter harbor, a better townsite or a |
more desirable place for manufac-
turing city.-Oregon Daily Journal. |

A DESCENDANT OF CAESAR.

Little Mrs. Brown Felt Inemcient Be

Little Mrs. Brown had just finished
recounting the many things that she
meant to accomplish ON the morrow.
She usually got through with all she
undertook, and her family, accustomed
to such announcements, let them pass
without comment. But tonight Doro-
thy, the daughter of the house, who
had recently taken on the dignity of
a high school sophomore, looked up
from her Latin translation with a glee-
full chuckle.

"'By Caesar all things had to be

be raised; the signal had to be given
with the trumpet; the soldiers had to
be recalled from the fortification those
who had advanced farther than usual,
for the sake of gaining material for the

battle had to be drawn up; the soldiers
had to be encouraged; and the signal

The next evening, when Dorothy took
up her Caesar, Mrs. Brown asked. ca
gerly, "Have you found out yet wheth-
er he got through with all those things
that had to be done at onceT
"I'm sure he did" said Dorothy. II

SUGAR MIGHT BE CHEAPER.
SuGgested National Policy that
Would Reduce the Price.

suggested National Policy that
Would Reduce the Price.
Including Cuba, whose Interest is
vital, four different groups are con-
cerned by the American sugar situa-
tion. There are Q) the American gov
ernment, which receives a little more
than $50,OOO,OOO year In revenue
from the tariff on sugar; (2) our do
nestle and our insular producers, to
whom that tariff is a direct benefit to
the extent Of about $50, 100000 a year;
(3) the consumer, who Is interested In
lower prices. and (4) the Cubans, who
are so largely dependent upon the
American market for their livelihood.
In an article in the Information Ed
ward E. Atkins Of Boston. the owner
of a large plantation In Cuba, works
out this problem along an interesting
and probably correct line.
With a general assumption of the
continuance Of present political and
fiscal conditions MIR. Atkins says:
ITO all appearances our importations
soon end and from that time, IL do
mestic and Cuban production keeps
pace with increased consumption, as Is
anticipated, a differential to Cuba
would protect her against other coun-
tries and reduce cost to consumers in
the United States" He holds that "the
protection Of even the Cuban rate
(about 1876 cents a pound) now gives
the domestic sugar producers so large
a margin Of profit that they can well
afford to drop prices below Cuba's cost
In order to market their goods" He
claims that In the almost certain event
Of the reduction of competition to our
domestic product and the Cuban prod
uct a very material reduction could be
made in the present Dingley rate.
Should that be done two results
should follow: There should be reduc-
tion in selling prices and important in
crease In consumption. The initial loss
Of revenue to the government would
soon be Offset by Increase in imports
from Cuba. Increased demand should
stimulate domestic production. The
Dingley rate, practically maximum
rate, would keep out the sugar Of other
countries If Cuba were given differ
ential, or what might be regarded az
minimum rate. This differential
would virtually assure to Cuba mar
ket for her product and so divide the
market between her output and our
domestic supply.
The argument Is certainly worth
careful consideration by the authori-
ties.-New York Sun.

POINTERS ON EGG COOKERY.
Some Things to BE Borne in Mind in
Preparing Them.

Some Things to De Borne in Mind in
Preparing Them.
Cheese and eggs, both having great
nutritive value, may we'll take the
place Of meat during a brief sojourn,
says the Home Magazine. Epicures
say an egg, to have the best flavor,
should be twelve hours old, and GER
tainly eggs over week old are not
palatable when boiled, though they are
not unpleasant when fried and are
quite as serviceable In other dishes.
In cooking eggs 1t should be remem-
bered that the albumen, Of which the
white is chiefly composed, Is most cas-
lily digested when slightly coagulated,
while the yolk digests easiest when dry
and mealy. To boil eggs evenly, put
them into a dish having a tight cover
and pour boiling water over them In
the proportion of two quarts to one
dozen eggs, cover and set at the back
of the stove. After seven minutes
turn the eggs, recover. and in six min
utes more the eggs will be cooked.
When more eggs than four are used
by this method, about ten minutes
longer after the turning will be re-
ouired. In this way the white of the
egg cooks to a jellylike consistency,
while the yoIk Is much harder.
Foreign cooks use a small portion Of
grated cheese to give a piquant relish
to many dishes Veal broth. creamed
potatoes and many salads are greatly

PRESERVED HIS DIGNITY.

~00~~~~~~~

The talk had turned on British but
lers-most solemn and majestic Of func-
tionaries and lady present related her
experience as girl at dinner party
In London. Her neighbor at table was
a famous man, Of whom she stood so
much In awe that she found herself
unable to converse with him, and sat
silent and uncomfortable, vexed at her
own shyness, yet unable to overcome it.
Dinner was half over whe she chanced
to lift her eyes to tilted mirror on
the wall. and beheid spectacle other
wise invisible to the guests.
Halfway down the long table sat a
very great lady, aged and deaf, the
grandmother of the hostess, and little
beside and behind her chair was posted
the family butler, whose duty 1t was on
such occasions to repeat into her trum-
pet such scraps of conversation as he
could catch, and answer her questions
concerning anything that was going on.
She was far too deaf for converse
ton at table with strangers, but Null
Inns deep, familiar tones, even when
whispered, she could understand.
At the moment when the young
American looked up, Mullins, to the
eyes of the company, showed as COM
posed and stately being, respectfully
bent toward the trumpet Of Lady
Blank. But the treacherous mirror re-
fected a rear view of different effect.
A very young and harmless puppy
had somehow slipped into the dining
room, and with futile but distracting
ferocity was worrying first one and
then the other Of poor Mullins silken
calves.
With surreptitious kicks and shakes
the unfortunate man, cleverly preserv-
ing his dignified appearance above the
level of the table, would endeavor to
fling aside his joyous enemy, who
would roll away few feet unharmed
and gleefully return to the attack. At
last in a specially vigorous effort Null
Inns shed shoe, which the puppy
promptly seized and ran away with.
The American girl, shaking with
mirth, quietly called the attention Of
her distinguished nelghbor to the scene
In the looking-glass, and they watched
1t together with breathless interest to
Its close.
Her shyness was banlshed by the
time they had laughed out their laugh
together, and the great man, recover
ing his breath, pronounced the issue
drawn battle.
'1The enemy Is driven from the field;
but he departs with a trophy"
