A Happy Home

is often turned to place or dlssatls- faction, hair-pulling matches, jawing and scolding contests and ever so many unhappy moments passed there, when it should always be place of happiness, joy, continual 1ol- lification and merriment; and 1t all depends on the head of the house. For instance, the wife goes and buys tea and coffee and she makes sure to get trading stamps with each pur- chase. Goodness knows she's get ting a poor quality, and the husband doesn't like his drinks at the table; but wifey doesn't care, she gets the trading stamps; but when hubby be- gins to drink intoxicants and comes home, sits at the table and tells wifey 'No tea or coffee for mine,' she knows what's the matter. We'll, if she purchased her tea and coffee at our store she'd have different life altogether; everything would be lovely. But the husband sometimes is to blame. We know one case where hubby told wifey he'd always get up and light the fire, but he changed his mind after the knot was tied and, of course, a fight ensued. She raised particular Ned, so he went and ordered gas stove, and he gets up and lights it every morning, and since then everything is serene. But he is believer in drinking our tea and coffee, consequently his brain is level and he is not quick tempered, because he always has used the nice tasting kind. That's the quality we sell This week our 1 Butter is the best in the city, 27 cents per pound, at

That was always about the first thing
done in any case, but small matters,
like the arrival of a new member of
the family, required no physician
and no removal of the patient to the
lying-in ward of the hospital, for
there wasn't any west of the Mis-
souri,. The nearest physician was at
Salem, and tn re was one store there
kept by Joseph Holman, whose pret-
ty daughter became Mrs. John AL
bert. There was not much style put
on by the boys in those days. They
didn't wear peg-top college pants,
but went TO school mostly in buck
skin pants with plenty of opportuni-
ties for ventilation. Their mothers
usually cut them with the neck of
the hide down about the ankles, and
as that Is the thiekest part OF the
skin, when II got wet II hardened

sins were about the only footwear,
and they could be purchased from
the Indians, who still roamed over
the valley by hundreds. The John
son boys, who are now prominent
and successful business men In Ma

and winter, and wore scales on their
feet, II they didn't produce webs.
Before the days of Jefferson Insti-
tute there were little log school
houses, TO which the parents paid tu-

than II. A. Johnson, Sr., could well
meet, and the accommodating teach

$50 on account of the animal. and,
as cows were scarce, there was some

away as part of the endowment fund

When Jefferson Institute was found

CHURCH.
AGAIN
UNITED
Meeting At Milwaukee Wisconsin.
Brings All Factions Tesether

Rev, Ezra Maurer, of this city, pre-
siding elder of the Evangelical
church, which has a German and an
English congregation in this city.
has received papers from Mllwau-
kee, Wisconsin, where the annual
meeting of all the churches in the
United States is being held, showing
that great steps have been taken In
the direction of complete union,
This is matter of great Importance
to the Evangelical churches of Ore
gon, where the sentiment In favor
of a complete union has been grow
Ing very strong. The Milwaukee
Press has this account:
Afte~ being split in twain for Is
years, the Evangelical association of
the United States, probably will be
reunited. A move to this end, Il Is
said, will be taken by the general
conference of the original associa-
tion now In session In Zion church,
Eleventh and Harmon streets.
A plea for harmony between the
two factions of the church. and a
] recommendation that the present
conference take action to bring them
together was made yesterday by the
/ young people. The young people Of
/ the Evangelical association are or
ganized into the Young Peoples AL
lance The young people OF the
United Evangelical church, the Sc
ceding body, are organized into the
Keystone League of the Christian
Endeavor.
Commissions to Effect Reunion.
Representatives of the two young
peoples societies held a joint meet
ing In Chicago on April Sth, and
they voted to do all In their power tc
reunlte the church. The first result
of the Chicago meeting was the rec.
ommendation to the conference yes
terday.
There is a desire on the part OF
those In the conference to bring thi
two factions together. They realize
they say, that the work of the church
may be accomplished better IL It Il
organized compactly as It was
quarter of century ago. They prol
ably will elect n commission from
the general conference TO meet I
commission they will request the
church to appoint. The two commits
sions will act to reunite the church
bridging over by arbitration the
differences that exist between the
two factions of the church. Each
side. II Is expected. will make some
concessions.

How Split Came About.

The trouble that divided the
church in 1889 was the result OF
differences Of opinion among the
bishops in ONCE at the time. They
disagreed as TO the church policy,
and In a conference that year there
was an open rupture after a fight
that had smouldered for some time.
Bishop Dubb withdrew from the as
sociation, taking $4,000 people with
him. He organized the United
church, which has been known as
the Dubb faction. The bishop who
led this faction has since retired
from the ministry, and now publishes
a church paper.
Longer Terms OF offlce.
A recommendation that bishops
remain bishops for life, instead OF
for only four years. was presented to
the conference yesterday by Rev. J..
II. Lamb. Cleveland. o. Reoommen-
dations also were made that the
terms of pastors and presiding elders
be extended from four to six years.
All recommendation will be con-
sidered by committees. and acted
upon finally by the conference. There
is a provision in Mr. Lambs recon-
mendation that the number OF bish-
ops shall be three, as at present. The
general attitude OF the conference
seems TO favor the departure.
Bishop s. C. Breyfogel, who was
appointed four years ago 10 prepare
a digest of law for the church, yes
terday recommended a number OF
minor changes in church discipline.
The balance Of the day was taken up
with reports OF officers, which
showed satisfactory an encouraging
progress financially and otherwise.

church at home and in foreign mis-
sions.

l. H. PERKINS FALLS TO DEATH.
Insures His Life for s45o,oo and Falls
From Housetop.

Lawrence, Kan.-Under circum-
stances that indicate suicide and a
carefully laid plan to make his death
appear an accident, Luicius II. Per-
klns, prominent in legal and Masonic
circles. who had his life insured for
nearly half million dollars, fell from
the roof of his residence and received
injuries from which he died a few
hours later without regaining con-
sciousness.
Perkins went up to the roof at G
o'clock, and nobody knows what he
went up for. He ventured out on the
east end so far that 1t would have
been a wonder If some accident had
not befallen him. A man working on
the place saw him topple over and gave
the alarm. This man thinks that Per-
kins partly caught himself when he
passed trough on the wall, but does
not know. He hit the ground in a sit
ting posture and then fell forward. He
was picked up and medical aid sum
moned, but nothing could be done for
him.
amounting to about $450,000 The fam
lily docs not know the exact amount.
Most of this insurance was written in
the past six months. A year ago Per-
kins built house costing $4,000.
When nearly finished 1t caught fire one
night and was nearly destroyed. The
origin of the fire was never learned.
This loss was adjusted and the house
rebuilt. 1t was named Ufton Court,
and Perkins entertained extensively.
Perkins was secretary of the state
examining board for lawyers and last
year was president of the State Bar
Association. He had arranged his bust
ness preparatory to leaving for Can
ada for the summer. He was promi-
nent in Masonic circles and was sup
posed to be quite wealthy.
