A Marrow Escape.


An old circus man tells this incident
AZ one of the narrow escapes he had
in the show business. He had trained
lions, zebras. leopards, rhino - you
know-and all sorts of beasts Of prey,
but this, he says, was his narrowest
escape. 1t was when he was running
n dime museum in Milwaukee.
One day mild hammered Russian
came out of the railway station with
n valise I'm his hand. He was heavily
bearded man and with shaggy hands
and arms like George Esau. He hunt
ed up cabman and inquired modest
ly. Where is the dime museumT
The cabmGn told him and then asked
want to ride up?"
YES" the bearded stranger told him
quietly, almost bashfully. I'm to be
employed up there. I'm the wild man.
"The narrow escape" says the ex
circus man, "lay in the fact that nc
newspaper man heard the mans re
mark and that the cabman was al
Englishman, with no sense of humor
who never thought to repeat it."-Ex

LA GRANDE CHANGES
ADVERTISING METHODS

From La Grande Observer, May 10
A new policy regarding the al
tainment of publicity for La Grande
was begun at last night meeting OF
The Commercial club when it was de
cided to use the local papers for dis
I.ribution among homeseekers. The
plan is to buy from e..ch paper week
ly subscriptions to the am ount o
$1,000, and to send to prospective set
.lers whose letters seem to warrant
t, one of the papers for period OF
three months. This will give the club
an opportunity to furnish 800 inquir'
ers with ordinary-every-day unvarnish
ed information regarding our city
md our resources that could be giver
by no reasonable amount of letter
writing.
While specially prepared booklets
circulars and other commonly used
means of advertising a community are
good, there is always the danger Of
giving the recipients of such matter
the feeling that our drawbacks ar.
CLOSED over and our advantages ex-
aggerated. Every day happenings
facts about our crops, or fruit ship
ments, and in our civil life are told
in every issue of the local papers, and
readers will feel that they are getting
the truth, plain and unvarnished.
Then, If they decide to come to this
section, they will do so with the in
tention of staying.

DANGERS OF WIRELESS.

That wireless telegraphy is accompa-

posed to the prolonged action Of the
currents of high frequency and high

ed in an article by Dr. Bellier Of the
French navy, published in the Archives

Druggist.
1t has been found that those persons
who operate the apparatus emitting the

troubled with defects of vision and con

probably by the direct action of the
sparks. The cOnjUnctivitis is some

bring TO light the existence of other
maladies due to the spark. At any rate.

mat telegraphers operating the wireless
system be provided with dark blue. or.

In an editorial in the New York Press

These be parlous times for the rock

~ those who supported Taft after ne
was nominated. but fought him tooth
and tOe-nail before the road roller ran
over the fellows who were generally
known as reactionists last year. The

depart from the sacred precincts of the

the position that he could not conscien-
