The Home
of Quality

Every family should know the
home of meat quality. The modern
equipment and the special atten-
ton paid to the selection and pre-
serving of meats at the A. & X.
Market are ample cause for you to
insist that your table meats come
from the A. & X. Is there anything
that demands more careful selec-
ton and caution in preparation
than the meats you eat? Think it
over.
Make sure you are getting the
best by calling Main 447. A. & X.

blot Of scandal on her children
which can never be erased, entire
ly oblivious of the duty she owes
the world and her children as a
mother, and lastly forgetful of the
heartbroken father. z.
Little Edna Is a bright little girl
and as she talked about her mother
deserving her and her two little
brothers it was hard to suppress
the tears which would involuntarily
come to ones eyes as he listened
to her pitiful tale Of sorrow and
grief. Mrs. Gray, the mother of
the deserted children, had happy
family life until she met Greek
named George Kavlin in Seattle
about two years ago.
After papa sold his hotel in Sc
to start another place In Portland,
stated pretty little Edna Gray in
her girlish way. Mama did not
buy a hotel in Portland as she had
promised papa, but gave the money
to George Kavlin and she went to
Sacramento, California, taking us
with her and telling papa that she
was going on a pleasure trip. In
the meantime papa left Seattle and
went to La Grande, Oregon. After
we had been in California for about
two months mama went to La
Grande at the request of Kavlin
to secure some more money from
papa. She did get some more
money from him, but papa found
out where we were and he came
to Sacramento and took us to La
Grande. When Kavlin heard that
papa was coming he disappeared,
but when we arrived at La Grande
he was there.
Finally we all went to Medical
Lake, where papa, secured q nice
home for us and bought a store. He
always provided well for us, and
gave mama plenty Of money. Then
Kavlin came again and mama took
us to Spokane, telling us that she
was going to place us in a school.
She took us out here and since that
| night l have never heard from her
0, l do want my mama SO bad, and
to hear from her. What If she
should die and we would never hear
from her or something would hap
| pen to us. 1t would be awful"
The names of her two younger
brothers are Thomas and Leroy
eight and seven years old, respec
lively. AS the two little brothers
lay on their cot at the homealasa
night they sobbed as if their hearts
would break. q
Here is pitiful letter written by
Edna to her older sister in Canada:
Dear sister, received your letter
a few days ago. Was glad to hear
from you. Where Is mama? You
ask me if l need anything. Why,
need new dresses to wear to school
| this fall. When l was with mama
| George thought he was awful
smart and when l would say any
thing to him he said that you and
were not fit to lie in the streets
with the dogs. Mama made believe
that she did not have any money
and put me here so that she could
run away with George. Well
goodby for this time. From your
loving sister, Edna"

But it's too much soup for guy
to pack around with him, even if he
is president 1t makes him look as
if he was pasted on one Of them
curved mirrors they has in the side
shows. And you tell me, Clarence,
that he's trying to take some of
the grease off, few hundred

Well, it's a battle, this taking off
weight. And the crab of it is that
the more you has and the more you
need to shake it, the tougher it is.

pounds in the clear, he could pull
off half of it all right, if he wanted
to-which he don't. For If you
only weigh a hundred it's pretty

to eat. And any time you don't hit
the chuck regular, it's an even
price that it amt your fault.
But when a guy gets 1t packed

You don't think he'd fall for it?
Well, don't blame him. But when
he invites them cabinet big guy
blOkes to breakfast, he might split
an egg with them and that would
help some.
"Ill take a plea that would beat
golf to take off fat. Did you ever
pipe a game of golf, Clarence?
Well, l played it when l used to
peddle newsies, only we called it
shiny then and it didn't have so
many trimmings. When / pipes a
full grown, able bodied journeyman
in little Willie pants leaning on a
shiny stick and handing out the
bull to high school maid with her
hair in braid, while 10-year-old
kid Jugs around the bats and does
all the work, always feel like toss
ing him to get on mans job.
Oh, golf is fashionable and a
pick and shovel amt? I'm hep to
that, Clarence. But If 1t wasn't for
a pick and shovel you wouldn't
have many golf links. No, l
wouldn't ask Taft to handle pick
though I'd risk a scuttle of suds
that he wouldn't make bad fist
at it-but he'll never jerk in a
dozen holes in his belt playing
Skinny.
What? He's taken up boxing and
spars every day with Doc Barker?
Well, that's more like it. That's
the game for the big boy. Boxing'll
take off a lot of heft if it's pulled
the right way. I've known guy tC
go in the ring with his head sc
swelled that it weighed more thar
all the rest of him put together
? And I've saw him come out with
that noodle so shrunk that yOu
, couldn't see it under the X-ray..
Il II Bill goes in for boxing and
takes it all to the hot, it'll do him
good. But it's the Panama cana
to a hole in doughnut that wher
he puts on the mitts there's no hit
, ting in the face. Who's this Doc
, Barker? I never heard where he
, knocked anybody out. l guess he's
one of them sparrers what learned
. what he knows in correspondence
school. II Bill would tackle some

that's a bunch.
Then If he'll do five miles on the
road at a stiff jog every morning
before eats, he'll get lot of that
middle section not looking SO much
like a locomotive roundhouse.
If the big boy will go to this
game and be wise he'll drop his
bundle o. X. How long will it take
Clarence? Well, that's all up to his
color. If he's got any O what
Hearst sells in him he'll rumple the
game quick. I'm wise that he's a
white guy all through, and, say kid
he'll make good. There's one ting
I'm leary about, though: He'll crab
the whole game IL he hogs it. Many
