GOOD ADVANCES IN PRICES OF
 BEST STOCKS
Shares In Good Copper Mining Connnan;o" Sc-n
 6e rs 5. ,,t'f q'-7, Fiaa"cin Con6tshns.

In au 0T the leading cope; stochS yesterdays market showed a~decided improvement, and judging from east ern adyices, it is probable that the movement was the result of better ment of financial conditions which is permanent. Most of the leading issues took on an advance of from one to three points and held the advantage at the close.
 To one acquainted with the condi- tions of the mines of the Warren Dis trict, as well as other mining sec tions. quotations on great many stocks have been very low, owing to the financial stringency which forced banking institutions to adopt the clearing house system, and refuse loans on gilt-edged securities.
 With the improvement in general conditions, and the return of c,n- fldence on the part of the public, there has been a rapid return towards nor nal standards, and those who have been able to hold good stocks through out the crisis are in position now to hold on still longer and realize a profit on their investments, or at least dis pose of their securities at very near the figures they paid for them.
 While there is no doubt that it will be long time before the wild craze for speculation which seemed to have a hold on the entire public before the semi-panic again makes it's appearance, stiIl it is just as certain that ultimate ly, and that before very long, the price of copper will return to a normal fig ure, and those shares which represent true merit will take on an advance. It will probably take some little time for matters to re-adjust themselves properly. but when they do, those who do not sacrifice their holdings on slight advances will have . handsome profit.

Myths of the most bewildering kind spring up and flourish and often bear ripe harvest in the minds of ignorant Mohammedan populations during times of crisis. A saint or two can work wonders among them at the psy choIogical moment, and saints of the most truculent type are as common in Morocco as blackberries are in Eng land. These people have no ideas Of evidence or of probability Though they lie freely themselves. their ere duIity in the word of holy man is boundless-London Times

UP WENT HIS HANDS.
HOLDING THE PURSE

Because he has a habit of carrying
his pocketbook in the same pocket
with his matches, Jack Burch, a driv-
er for the city crematoiy depart

of turning over his cash - a high

Spokane dispatch.
Burch reported to the police Tues
day that while driving across the
East Oiive avenue bridge in the night
he was accosted by a man who asked
the loan Of a match with which to
light his PIPE. Made suspicious by
the mans rough appearance, Burch
pulled out his pocketbook with the
same hand in which he produced the
matches.

The efforts of Uncle Sam to see
that his nephews get what they pay
for when buying fod and drugs were
discussed recently in Portland by
Prof. A. l.. Knisely, who Is in charge
Of the pure food laboratory Of this
state. In speaking Of his work Prof.
Knlsely said:
Our laboratory, together with sew
eral others, was recently established
by the federal government, and is a
result Of the United states food and
drugs act, which was passed June 30,
1906.
Section II of this act provides that
1.-The secretary Of the treasury shall
deliver to the secretary Of agriculture
upon his request. from time to time
samples Of foods and drugs which are
being imported into the United States
or offered for import, giving notice
thereof to the owner or consignee,
who may appear before the secretary
Of agriculture and have the right TO
introduce testimony, and If II appear
from the examination of such sam
pies that any article Of food or drug
offered to be importad into the Unit
ed States is adulterated or misbrand-
ed within the meaning Of this act, or
Is otherwise dangerous to the health
of the people Of the United States, or
Is Of a kind forbidden entry into. or
forbidden to be sold or restricted In
sale In the country I'm which It Is made
or from which It is exported, or Is
otherwise falsely labeled In any re,
spect. the said articles shall be re-
fused admission and the secretary Of
the treasury shall refuse delivery to
the consignee and shall cause the de-
struction of any goods refused deliv-
cry which shall not be exported by
the conslgnee within three months
from the date of notice of such refu-
sal under such regulations as the Sec
retary Of the treasury may prescribe
Purpose of the work.
1t Is for the purpose of enforcing
the provisions Of this food and drugs
act that these laboratories have been
established.
All of the federal laboratories are
thoroughly equipped so as to make
any and all examinations or analyses
which the enforcement of the food
and drugs act may require.
The work Of each laboratory may
be divided into two classes-first'
international or import work; second
domestic or interstate work.
The first protects against the I'M
purity of productions OF foreign coun-
tries
I wish to call your attention to
difference or distinction between state
work and interstate work
The federal government does not
interfere and takes no part in purely
state work; on the other hand. the
federal government Is very much In
terested In interstate work. 1t is a
question OF the government not In
terfering with what belongs to the
state.

Birds are destroying the telephone
and telegraph poles in the west.
In some places so per cent Of all
poles along the right of way have
been riddled by these innocent of
tenders, which belong to he wood
pecker family.
one of the Western Union officials
who has recently returned from an
inspection through the west, reported
having seen 25 telephone poles with
200 or 800 holes drilled clear through
them. Some of the holes were three
or four inches in diameter.
An officer of the Illinois Central
railroad counted the white cedar
poles along the right of way near
Covington, Tenn, which had been af7
fected by woodpeckers, and found
that out of 26S poles, 1l0, or Al per
cent, had been bored.
In some cases destruction Of the
pole takes only few months, and
dangerous for a lineman to climb the
stick.
The real object of the birds in
drilling the holes is uncertain. One
telephone man said that the hum
ming of the wires was mistaken 10y
the birds for insects eXcayating be-
meath the surface of the wool, and
that they drilled the poles in quest of
these imaginary insects. Il is very
probable, however, that the holes are
eXcavated for an entirely different
purpose The woodpecker is provi-
dent bird At the proper season it
stores up a supply of lcorns and 9TH
er foods for future consumption. In
the summer these holes are often
found stored with acorns.
Many methods of preventing this
damage have been suggested, but
probably the most successful is pres
ervation with creosote. A line OF
creosoted poles, opposite the one near
Covington, was examined and not a
single hole was found. When 1t Is
considered that the creosote will not
only prevent the damage caused by
the woodpecker, but also protect the
pole indefinitely against both insects
and decay, its great value as a pre-
sentatice is apparent.
The forest service has spent con-
siderable time in developing a cheap
vet efficient method for the treatment
Of telephone and telegraph poles. The
rsults Of the work are embodied in
several Forest service circulars cop
les of which may be obtained without
cost from the Forester, Washington,

course, handle goods which are not
guaranteed, as their own risk. With
reference to interstate work, proba-
bly, the most trouble has been caused
by a misuse Of abuse of labelling,
many samples Of food and drug pro-
ducts have been misabeled or mis-
branded. This has been due in part
to misunderstanding Of the law and
In part to the advertising matter
used on labels by INSCRIPTIONS man
ufacturers
Honesty Has No Fear.
For Instance certain .aanufactur-
ers and patent medicine firms have
tried to give the impression to the
public that since they have a serial
number guarantee and state on their
goods that they are guaranteed under
the Food and Drugs Act Of June 30.
1906. that their goods have been eX.
amined and are guaranteed by the
government such statements are
absolutely false.
In justice to the better class OF
manufacturers ana wholesalers,
might state that they are In sympa-
thy with the Food and Drugs Act.
The honest. upright manufacturer or
wholesaler has little or nothing to
fear by the enforcement of the pro-
visions of the Food and Drugs Act
At times the honest manufacturer
may find It a little hard to compete
with the. interruptions one, but even
tually, this latter class viii, l hope,
be put out Of business.
TO the manufactures, wholesaler
and dealer, / would say be square
and above board, nave all labels and
advertising matter on your wares
state the truth, and you need have
but little fear Of violating the Food
and Drugs Act Of June 80, 1906.
