a big potlatch is to be held at Ia

The Auditor was routed out of bed

the housewife who does her own
ironing, do not fail tomakc a trial of
the electric flat-iron, advertised by
the Olympia Light and Power Com

recurring duty. Thirty days free
trial seems to be pretty good guar
anty that its projectors have conf
dence in their claim. Try one.

mans was in good health when he left
the Grandchamp home, a fortnight
or more ago. His clothes and effects,
including $4O0 in money, are still

with her husband and family moved
to Fresno, Cal, to her relatives here,
does not give very encouraging
report of the change. She says that
cherries and apples are not as good
in that State as grow here, but that
the peaches are splendid. To the as
sertiOn that it does not rain in Cali
fOrnia she gives an emphatic denial
There had been three severe storms
