WASTED KINDNESS.

Can you tell me-" said the cool
looking young lady in white, conf
dentially approaching the young man
at the soda fountain, ''the most
agreeable way to take caster oil?"
"Oh, yes, indeed" replied the man,
his eyes Frightening. And while
you are waiting" he added, won't
you have a glass of soda"
"Oh. thank YOU" said the young
lady as he set it down before her.
The day being hot in few moments
she drained the glass.
"Is the prescription ready?" she
asked sweetly wiping her mouth.
The young mans eyes cleaned
with benevolence. THE prescription,
he said, tapping the glass, was in
here?"
do you mean to say I've drunk
it," she screamed But it wasn't
for met was for my little brother!"
And she swept from the drug store

THE BREAD 1 BAKE.

You tell me that you hold me dear,
You say that for my love you sigh;
You're only happy when I'm near,
without me you would want to die
That's very nice, 1 won't deny.
Your heart I do not wish to break,
But will you joke about my pie
And will you scorn the bread l
bake?
I've heard of husbands who would
sneer
And scold when matters went awry,
Who keep their wives in dread and
fear,
Who carp and grumble and decry.
OF course, you know, 1 don't imply
That such a course you're apt to
take,
But how about the chops 1 fry,
And will you scorn the bread
bake?
Perchance within one fleeting year
You might not rate my charms so
high,
You might say that my roast was
queer
And call it tasteless, burnt and dry
For me all dangers you'd defy,
You'd brave the gallows or the
the stake,
But will you call my coffee lye,
And will you scorn the bread
bake?
L'ENVOI.
There's this about the marriage tie:
You'd suffer all for my sweet sake
But how about the hats 1 buy?
And will you scorn the bread
bake

But ONE COURSE OPEN.

The absolute folly of trying to set
tie county division questions by sub
mitung them to vote of all the peo-
pie of the state has been fully shown
this year. It is impossible for the
entire state to Judge of such disputes
because they are purely local disputes.
annexation bill is presented a voter
has no way of knowing for certain
whether or not the people who are
chiefly affected want the bill to car
ry.
For instance in the case Of the Or
chard county bill, this paper has all
ways asserted that the bulk of the
territory proposed for Orchard coun-
ty is opposed to the creation of that
county. The East Oregonian has
good reasons for feeling that this as
sertion is true.
Now look at the annexation bills
that have been drafted for Multno-
NAH county. One bill calls for the
annexation Of a big part of Wash
ington county to Multnomah while
the other bill would add one third Of
Clackamas county to Multnomah.
These bills are even opposed by rep
resentative people of Portland whom
one would ordinarily expect to find
in support Of the measures Presi-
dent Beckwith, of the Portland Com
mercial Club, is openly opposing the
annexation bills and so is L. r. Web
ster. former judge of Multnonah
county.
In answering some of the argu-
ments of the Clackamas county an
nexationists Judge Webster says:
They say that the area proposed
for annexation would pay the expense
OF road building in that area" Judge
Webster continued. The truth OF
the matter is that these people want
to get in TO evade the special road
tax. They say the 100 miles Of road
in this area is largely in forest re-
serve and would not be a burden up
OF the taxpayers. However that may
ment necessitates continuously the
opening Of more roads. Should the
third Of Clackamas county become
part OF Multnomah county, Portlan ]
would pay 30 per cent OF the cost OF
building these roads.
''It is an imposition to ask Port
land to bear this burden. It Is stated
that Portland needs these roads a.
much as the people in the area az.
fected. because that area is tributary
to Portland. AS matter Of fact, that
area will continue to be tributary tc
Portland whether annexation sue.
ceeds or not. In like measure the
area extending clear TO southern Ore.
gon Is tributary to Portland. but Il
that used as an argument for Port
Iands paying Tor the roads 10 south
ern Oregon"
Now the question arises II Multi
ncmah county does not want outsid
territory annexed should the annex
alton bills carry7 Certainly no:
The people who are directly affecte,
by such measures should have tn
say. There is a way Of providing 70
