three days session in Oakland this
morning.
The federation has for it's purpose
the correcting Of all abuses in the
realty business. These have been
many. especially in southern Califor-
MIA cities, where every other man is
a real estate agent. Many of these
self-styled agents have their offices in
their hats. and their transactions have
done much to prejudice newcomers
against California.
Many entertainments have been
provided for the visiting dealers in CAL

this evening and tomorrow there will
be a boat ride on the bay. Saturday
will be automobile day, when the del

Do YOU realize that there is such
thing as selfish unselfshness?
Well, there is.
1t is a vice found almost exclusively
in mothers, but occasionally in fathers
or maiden aunts and once in a life
time in sons or daughters.
Did you ever notice what very selfish
children extremely unself1sh mothers
are apt to have?
Strange" you say, that Alice's
daughters should be such very selfish,
thoughtless girls when Alice, herself
is unselfish to fault
Not strange at all, but perfectly log
icaI and almost inevitable
Why should Alice's daughters have
eaten the crusts and leftovers when
their mother insisted that she preferred
them?
Why should Alice's daughters ever
have learned to stay at home and send
their mother TO the concert OF elo
NAV when Alice always protested that
she would really rather stay at home,
she was tired and they would be sure
to enjoy it much more than she"
Why should Alice's daughters have
worn their suits two seasons and had
their mother have a new gown Wnen
Alice insisted that her four-year-old
gown turned and made over was just

invited to spend two weeks in solld

other day:
In the first party of the season there
was woman there who was the moth
or of Il children and who never In all
her life had had a vacation.
She was invited for two weeks She
had been at the camp three days when
one of the eight children, who were
still living. came for her. The young
est boy, aged Is, was sick and the
mother was needed at home. The mat
ron pleaded with the girl to try and
get along without her mother, but she
said she didn't see how it could be
done.
So the woman gave up the only va
cation she had ever had and Went
home. crying gently to herself as the
carriage carried her away from Moth
ers' Rest
When l heard that story, my blood
fairly boiled 1t seemed to me that l
must go and find that family and say
to them some of the things that seeth-
ed through my mind
And then l wondered if after all that
mothers unselfishness had not been
partly to blame.
With GOOD mothers, unselfishneSS is
an inStinct-a beautiful, wonderful IN
stinct that seems to be born twin
child with the first baby.
But beautiful and wonderful as IL is,
it is an instinct that ought sometimes
to be curbed.

authorities of King county shows that
the 1892 acres in King county con-
tains 1886, 500 feet of timber
With the information already at
hand as a basis, the 10O,275 acres in
western Washington should contain, in
round numbers, 3,049.O37,O feet of
timber But at a careful estimate
worked out in detail by comparison
with timber values and sales of timber
in various localities in the immediate
vicinity of the states holdings, the
value Of the timber is approximately
1886 S1. and the lands in Douglas
and Stevens counties should bring
$3O5. $50. or total of $4,172061 De-
Quoting from this amount the present
outstanding obligations against the
capitol fund there remains $3.6OS,31S to
be applied to the construction of
state capitol, an amount which, if
carefully and wisely handled, should
erect capitol building in keeping with
the dignity of the state and sufficient
in size to provide proper accommOda-
tons for the judicial, legislative and
executive departments of the state gov
eminent for all time to come
1T will be noted that the capitol
commission is confined to the so-called
'F1agg plans These plans adopted by
the old capitol commission, organized
under the act of 1895, and were pre-
pared by Mr. Ernest Flagg, who is now
one of the leading and best known ar
chitects in the world, the designer of
the famous congressional library at
Washington, D. c., and the architect
of the Singer building in New York
city, which will be the largest and tall
est Office building in the world when
completed We can be assured that if
a capitol building is erected from plans
prepared by Mr.. Flagg and under his
supervision and direction that the
state of Washington will have build
ing that will not be excelled by the
capitol of any other state.
SO far as the sale of the capitol
lands is concerned, it does not seem to
be the present purpose of the commits
