Superiority of DOuslas Fir.

Douglas fir never had a compli-
ment paid it which meant so much
as the editorial which appeared in
the lW rict n Lambcrmoa of last week
the worlds leading Journal in the
lumber industry. j. f.. Defebauch.
editor of the LumLern,an and an
authority, personally penned the edi-
torial, which says in part:
Douglas fir needs no stain to make
it beautiful in color, it does not have to
be carefully selected for grain. it takes a
fine finish, and it is strong and as hard
as many of the woods used for finer pur-
poses. Cn the Pacific Coast are many
fine residences and magnificent Office
buildings in which this wood is used.
The remainder OF the country is be-
ginnin. to know Douglas fir as an inter
or finish wood because it is being made
into doors and shipped all over the coun-
try. but that trade is not large enough
vet To make everyone acquainted with
fir. 1t will not supplant all mahogany
and oak, but it should be used side hy
side with them and for substantially the
same purposes. 1t will give variety
in the office and in the home. and i
we'll worth a place on ts merits. II
should not be despised because it is
cheap. 1t is cheap, not because it i,
not good and beautiful. but because it i.
| plentiful. Clear selected fir can be laid
down in Chicago, for example, at less
| than one-half the cost of mahogany an,
not more than onc-half the COST a
white oak, but this iow-cost lumber car
be made into goods which will put t,
scorn the word Cheap"

Money as a Qualification for Marriage.

One Frequently hears a man cry
ing out that he cannot afford to
marry. Sometimes he says it in the
police court; sometimes he says 1t
10 a friend in defense of his bachelor
existence: and sometimes he repeats
It with mis.ivingS to the woman he
has asked TO be- his wife. Every SEN
sible person knows that it is foolish
TO marry in haste. or without due
regard to the future. You cannot
marry on nothing because chances
are strongly against your nap
pincss. But Just how much you can
marry on is another matter. AS Il
rule, the people who cry out about
their poverty are not SO badly oil as
one would imagine. There is some
thing else behind this hesitation.
They are either not in love, or are
afraid; or else one is confident but
fears for the other. Fear of poverty
and hardship never stand in the way
of an engaged couple who are honestly
satisfied with each other 5 society it
strengthens mind and will. and such
obstacles As lack of means and misty
prospects instantly vanish. The
man has but to think of the woman
he loves in order to be confident of
accomplishing any purpose he may
set his mind to. The women is ready
and willing to suffer anything for
the sake OF being in her hero's com
