"In buying things to cook" said the economical housewife, ''I always take int1s consideration my gas bill. Even theh it doesn't seem to have much ef+ feet, but I am of a hopeful nature. Take beets, for instance. It will cost ab8ut $2 fA gas to cook cents worth of sbeets, and then they may not be done quite to suit, the taste of every body. but the thing most regret when it comes to. the gas bill is the sugar cuEed ham,.

MAORI SAvAGERY.

The Women Slaughtered the Victims
 For the Cannibai Feasts.
 Mrs. K. ND Dunlop of Auckland, New Zealand, writes of the Maori women: '"The Maori woman can keep at will. She has practiced the art, which has formed an important part of her train ing. She weeps so genuinely and so c6piO0slya as to melt the heart of sympathizing witness. The AIaoris hold 'tnagis,' or weeping parties, to mourn their dead, and in these gather ings the women play conspicuous part While weeping they utter low, mournful cry, which has a very weird efdet when produced by number of sYoIces. >t The mourners sit in groups, with their heads partially covered, giv- ing forth their monoton0us wailing and shedding copious tears.
 ''The Maori woman of past ages al- most iexcelled her lord in savageFy. On the. return of a triumphant war party they usually brought home a number of prisoners and slaves. It was the privilege of the women of the tribe to fall upon these, slaughtering them in preparation for the cannibal feast which followed. The women bore the painful, ceremony of the tattoo without shrinking. Spiral marks were cut into the flesh of their chins, lips and faces; a soot made by peculiar method was rubbed into the wounds, causing an ln- delible, blue-black stain, -
 "The .:Maeris, even In their former state, treated their women with a cer- tain amount of consideration, although the lot of the female slave was very hard and often ended inE her being served up as a dainty dish to appease the, appetite of her voracious lord, who would kick away the baskets of vege- table food presented to him by his wives as a signal that he required the tender flesh of slave girl"

OF "The Glacier" published by our
old friend, A. ID. Moe at Hood Riv-
er, Oregon. 1t reminds us of the time,
February 18th, 1902, when the writer
was sold as a part OF the old Plain
dealer plant to Mr.. Moe, by Il. G..
Carruth. "The Glacier" Is one of the
leading weeklies of Oregon, and is
doing much to advance the progress
of the state, and, judging from its ad
vertising patronage, Mr.. Moe and his
excellent journal are prospering in
their new western home, which is
pleasant news to their many friends
in both cities. ANY one that wants a

The Reader Who Skins.

A good work of fiction, whether In
prose or in verse-we are here speak
Ing only of good works-is a work of
art and can be rightly enjoyed only by
entering into sympathy with the art
lists mind and accepting his work ac-
cordlng to his intention. In a perfect
poem the place Of every word, in per
feet novel the place, If not of every
word, of every episode and Of every
paragraph, Is important. and the reader
who sklps throws away the pleasure
he has meant to derive from the har-
mony of composition, in which very
possibly the beauty of the whole may
chiefly consist, and despises the best
part of the artists labor. He might as
well go to see a good play and then

PUSH OREGON
To THE FRONT

On April 10Th last the Oregonian
published special industrial edition
devoted exclusively to the exploita-
tion Of Oregon. Ii probably contained
moIe special aud miscellaneous in
formation about Oregon than any one
publication that has ever been issued.
Ii is peculiarly useful and valuable to
the homeseeker, because IL gives the
latest and most reliable information
about so many different subjects that
the homeseeker Is naturally inter ested
in. Almost every department OF in-
dustry is specialized, and both de.
scrirtive and statistical information
OF highly valuable character is given
extensively and in entertaining form.
Residents Of Oregon who know its
advantages as compared with the con-
gested east, and who still have friends
back there whom they would like to
see here enjoying the good things OF
this favored state, can aid In splend-

your friend good turn, but of help

Don't forget that commencing Sep
tember 1st and continuing daily for
two months, tickets will be on sale at
almost every railroad station In the
east to all points In Oregon and the
northwest at what has come to be pop
ularly known as "colonist rates."
These rates are the cheapest general
long distance rates ever established,
and enable one to reach Oregon from
any part of the United States at but
tritie more than one cent q mile.
They are the greatest incentive to col.

east is made to know before hand the
advantages he can enjoy here, the
problem is solved, and the star of EN-.

One of the mysteries of Mexico is
presented by the Maya Indians. who
inhabit the Sierra Madre mountains in
the lower part Of Sonora. They have
fair skins, blue eyes and light hair, and
students Of ethnology have always
been puzzled to account for them.
There is tradition, however, that
these Indians are the descendants of
the crew and passengers of a Swedish
vessel wrecked on the Mexican coast
centuries before Columbus discovered
the new world, but this tradition is
founded on nothing more substantial
than a folklore tale current among
them that their ancestors came over
the big salt water hundreds Of moons
