rains are general In the east Gulf and
south Atlantic states, and are extending
north up the coast. Temperatures are

For Rouuh Irons,

Often the irons will become either
rough or rusty and 1t is most annoy
ing to try to iron with them. To a
fiat board nail a long strip of sand
paper and use this for smoothing the
irons on. if you find that the bees
wax does not accomplish this. If the
sandpaper is not convenient. sprinkle
a little salt on folded newspaper and
rub the irons on this Then wipe
them with cloth and finally rub with

with, is OF the best quality. thick and

or in cloth, then taken up and placed
in the center of hot platter. Over II

white sauce into which the riced yolk
of a hard boiled egg has been stirred
A little fine minced parsley is now
sprinkled over the fish and sauce,
while around the edge of the platter
are ranged slices Of boiled beets.
boiled carrots, two or three small
boiled onions and small boiled pota-

service of fish contains finely diced
fat salt pork with some of its own fat.
Tiny pickles accompany the dish also.
II goes without saying that the dish
should be served very hot.

Take the figs when nearly ripe and

and let stand three days, changing the
water every day. At the end of this
time cover with fresh water, adding
a few grape or fig leaves to color, and

and leave three days longer. Add a

THE HAT PHARMACY
By LYDIA FELICIA PERKINS
copyright. By shortstOry Pub. Col

When II became a regular occur
renee for Murray to stroll on the lawn
with Phyllis. and when Bond always
found him ahead of him, he quarreled
with Phyllis. She proved obdurate
and he threatened to knock of the fell
lows hat. This, however, was mere
ly breath.
The surveyors went back to Metrop-
oils and reported Democrat a thriving
and satisfactory town, with iron ore
in the immediate vicinity. So the
railroad came.
On the evening that its arrival was
celebrated in Democrat, after a jollii-
cation at the drug store, Bond and
Murray both asked Phyllis at the same
time to walk home with her. She
shyly turned to Murray. ~
For she had learned to love the soft
gray hat because it Swallowed the most
disquieting and fascinating eyes she
had ever met. She was magnetized by
the eyes beneath the hat, but still
more curious about the hat above the
eyes, and as ii is a well-known fact
that a woman's curiosity is only
equaled by her goodness, the hat pre-
vailed.
The first question she put after say
ing Yes" to Murray was not, Where
did you get that hat?" but:
Julius. why do you wear that hat?"
He looked long and peculiarly into
her eyes.
Guess" he answered
Because you are-bald?"

Many people do not make their own
bread because they cannot knead it

PAPER FOR VARIOUS ROOMS.
Wall Decorations to Add to the cozl
ness of the Homo.

Light but not bright should be the
guiding note when selecting the papers
with which TO decorate the walls OF
your home.
Where there is light there is always
cheerfulness which nothing else can
produce, but brightness OF colors soon
er or later will affect the nerves.
Where the rooms are small a small
figured paper should be chosen, as this
will make the rooms appear larger,
and vice versa with the rooms which
appear too large.
Here are few suggestions: For the
gestibule, a grove-like effect; for the
halls, plain felt paper or tapestry de-
sign; for the bedrooms, Powered de-
sign, with lighter or a darker body ac-
cording TO the amount of light ad.
mitted to a room.
For the parlor a quite decorative de-
sign, chosen with judgment to match
furniture; for sitting room and dining
room, arbor or orchard effects are eff
fective and becoming; bathroom. kitch-
en- and laundry are best painted.
One paper should not be placed over
another, as disease germs breed there
easily, and the thickness causes the
paper to fall from the walls.

LOOKING on the BRIGHT side.

According to the Philadelphia Ledg
er, a farmer was anxious that his
son should become a minister. and for
this laudable end he sent him to col.
lege for four years, but to his great
disappointment the youth baked al
the ministry and set himself up as
horse trader. The old farmer told
his grief to a neighbor, who. however
took a more optimistic view Of the
matter.
"Oh, I wouldn't feel so badly about
that" he said "As a boss trader Bill
will probably lead more men to re
pentance than he ever would have
done as a preacher"

The Tax Proposition.

Editor Review: Replying to Mr..
North, deputy assessor, as he was
quoted in the Review of last week 4,
will only say that the statements
made in my letter published in the
Review February 28, are positively
true in every particular and I have
the documents to prove it. Lots
II-I2, block II, Point View were
assessed at $500 while other lots
adjoining were assessed at $50 each,
but Mr.. North says that the 5000
was for improvements. Very well,
but the only improvements on the
lots are two small tents worth about
$40 each, which Mr.. North says
he assessed at $500. Do you see
what we are kicking about' Again
lot I, block 2, Barton's addition
was assessed at 5000 with no inn
provements, yet there is a store
building on the lot built in April,
1900, at a cost of $3.50 which has
been rented for ST. per month
ever since, yet the assessor did not
see these improvements at all. Any
kick coming herel As far as that
map is concerned to which atten.
ton was called, will say that 1t
certainly must have been intended
as Joke. For instance lot I8,
block 6, Oak Park No. is marked
OH the map $3.50, while the actual
assessment is s325. Again take
the brick block in which the post.
Office is located, according to the
map the four lots on which it
stands are assessed at 5000, $3.50,
800 and $3.50 or total of $27oo.
OF course no one supposes for a
minute that the block was actually
returned at any such ridiculous
assessment. The map only showed
the value of the bare lots and did
not indicate the value of the inn
provements at all, and gave no
information as to the assessed val
tie of improved property.
But we said in our first letter
that we thought St. Johns should
be represented on the assessors
force by a St. Johns man that was
acquainted with local values. ID.
&. Rogers informs me that the
assessment of St. Johns property
for 1908 has been turned over to
him. This removes the cause OF
complaint and Our kick is done.

Statement Number One.

A writer in the Corvallis Gazette
puts forth the most silly, illogical
arguments against statement No. I
we have heard yet After a quar-
ter column logical reasoning on the
question Of morality the writer
says: Our objections to statement
No. I are based, mainly on its
manifest immortality. We have
believed when the people saw this,
the statement would be ignored
wholly disregarded. We observe
this is the case. The people will
not resort to immoral means even
to reach desirable and righteous
ends"
Arguing on this line the Gazette
would remove all oaths of office
from Our regulations, because for
sooth, we note that some of Our
officers violate their oaths of Office
and are guilty of perjury. Does
that reflect upon the peopleI Are
the people to bear the censure due
the perjurer who violates his oath
of Office and breaks the law which
he is sworn to uphold' We do not
believe any sane man will say so
and we further believe that when
these periurers come up again for
office the people will turn them
down because OF their immortality,
and we believe in doing the same
way with those who seek legisla.
tive honors. We believe that a
man who s.eks the honor of rep
resentative should have respect
enough for his constituents to sign
statement No. and stand by 1t,
and If he will not, we believe in
turning him down fiat. In this
way can the people achieve their
desire for fair representation and in
no other. This silly twaddle about
the immortality of statement No. l.,
would be amusing If it were not so
disgustingly false.

There is one good thing about it,
II they are any ways uneasy about
there being misappropriation of the
funds by the management of the
university, when such a thing is
proven il will be an easy matter to
put bill through by the initiative
cutting the fund down. We do
not fear for the safety of the funds
as long as they have to be passed
through the course that now pre-

teachers to work for nothing about
a third of the time as they have
