The waist illustrated has several novel
features. the main one being IN the cut
OF the center-front and yoke section. It
Will be noticed that the lower part OF
the front is quite different from the ordi-
nary cut. The body and sleeve sections
are cut in one piece-a favorite style
for this season. A small yoke IN the
back gives the necessary length. The
fullness at the waist is gathered into
peplum. A turn-up cuff is added 10 the
lower part OF the sleeve section, and
below this a plain sleeve may be worn,
though in most cases this will be made
of all-over or tucking. II desired. this
piece may be omitted. A standing col
lar finishes the neck This waist will

NOTES OF THE LABOR
WORLD.

The new nationalism and its rela-
ton to labor will be one Of the sub
jects offered for discussion before the
annual convention of the National
Civic Federation when it meets in
January.
Plans are under way at St Louis
for replacing negro deckhands by
white labor. The packet companies
operating boats on the Mississippi
claim that they have experienced no
end of trouble with negroes, especial
" in winter, when traffic is unusual
ly heavy on the lower Mississippi. La
Dor unions will be asked to furnish
the new hands.
The Woman's Municipal league Of
Boston, of which Mrs. Richard c. Ca
bot is the chairman of education de-
partment has begun a study of the vo-
cation Of women the idea being to I'm
out by systematic research what the
opportunities are for women in each
vocation.
The annual report of the New Jer-
sey state bureau Of statistics of labor
and Industries shows that while a
| number of selected articles of food
have increased in price 40.96 per cent
in the last twelve years the average
wages of factory and workship en-
ployes have advanced during the same
period only 22.2 per cent. The in
| crease Of wages has fallen 1871 per
cent short Of keeping pace with the
growing cost Of food supplies.

"THE JUMPING FROG"

Mark Twain one evening heard the
frog story.
write it out" he said; "write it
out fully and send it to me for vol
ume Of sketches that I am preparing
for Carleton, the publisher Send it to
Carleton, in New York"
Clemens agreed to do so, but he was
slow in preparing the manuscript.
When it reached Carleton. Wards s
book was about ready for the press,
and it did not seem worth while to
Carleton to include the frog story. He
handed 1t over to Henry Clapp, edit
or of The Saturday Press-a perish
ing sheet-saying:
Here, Clapp, here's something you
can use"
The story appeared in the Saturday
Press of November IS, 1864 Accord
ng to the accounts OF that time, it set
all New York in a roar, which an
noyed rather than gratfied its auth
or. He had thought very little of it,
indeed. yet had been wondering why
some of his more highly regarded
work had not found fuller recognition.
But the Jumping Frog did not die.
Papers printed it and reprinted it, and
it was translated into foreign tongues.
The name of. Mark Twain" became
known as the author of that sketch,
and the two were permanently asso-
ciated from the day of its publica-
ton.

WATCH THESE MEN.

Professor Scudder who is here to
investigate the agricultural merits of
the sites offered for the branch asy-
lum is one of a group of men who are
doing work of the greatest value to
this state. They seek to make two
blades of grass grow where but one
srew before" and they do it too. As
la teacher of agriculture Prof. Scud-
der has had experience in Illinois,
Kansas and Colorado as well as in
Oregon. He has seen the farming
methods of the middle states complete
ly changed and the prosperity of that
section vastly increased thereby. He
has seen western Kansas transformed
from a poorly paying farming region
into fertile section whers alfalfa
and hogs are now being raised on
land that was previously regarded as
.unsuited for either. He has seen the
Willamette valley farmers give up
their old methods at the suggestion OF
the agricultural college men and has
noticed the splendid results that have
followed the change
After the dry farming station at
Moro has had sufficient time to fully
work out problems pertaining to farm
ing in eastern Oregon these men will
be able to demonstrate something to
the people of eastern Oregon. They
will have something more than ad-
wee to offer.
Keep your eye on these men and up
on what they are doing. They have
won out elsewhere and they will win
out here in the course of time. Sci
ence always wins when applied in a
practical way.

Your sweetheart it tells me. sis

Sure, youth times gone forever; I'll
never know again
The love that stood beside me in the
starlight of the lane
y twinklin' path of blossoms, never
fading May.
she loves YOU says the Fire, ''in
the old sweet way"

the days that used to be?

farewell to love an me;
But dream is sweet forever. and
knows no dying day;

FIRE FIGHTING HEROES.

In two great American cities yes
terday over a score of bold firemen
werekilled while in the performance
of duty. The details of the Chicago
and Philadelphia fires are heartrend-
ing yet they arouse admiration for the
men who gallantly met death while
fighting to save the lives and property
of others from the fire demon. In
Chicago the fire chief and half doz-
en- other commanding officers of the
department are among the killed.
Directing his men in desperate effort
tc check the flames Chief Horan gave
Up his own life as a part of the work.
The manner Of his death is to his
credit for it shows that he sent his
men into no dangers that he would
not face himself. He showed the
same sort Of courage as does a cap
tain who refuses to leave his sinking
ship until every passenger and mem
ber Of the crew has first been rescued.
Whatever he may have been in life
Chief Koran is hero now. So are
all the men who met death with him
and so are the Philadelphia firemen
who were killed. If that is any con-
ISOLATION.

FOLLOWED INSTRUCTIONS.

The mistress of a mathematical
class was matchmaking for her
mathematical pupils who were in

At which point it occurred to her
how much better she could illustrate
her example to her youthful charges
ie she really had a pound of plums.
So
MARY" she said to girl Of 8,
"here's sixpence. Go out and get me
pound of plr.ms. And as I'm going
to give them in the end to the girl
who gets the sum right first, be sure
before you buy them you pinch one
or two, just to see that they are whole
some"
A few minutes and Mary had re-
turned. With flush face and tri-
umphant eyes she approached the
teachers desk, as one worthy Of CON-
mendation, and pumped down bag
of plums-and the sixpence!
There, NUM-" she said, 81 pinched
