Now, if the manufacturer of

different cities to back up his

would not have been put to the
inconvenience Of searching for q
store that sold the umbrella.
The advertiser must consider
the CONVENIENCE Of his Gus
toners always. If they cannot
obtain an advertised article soon
after they read about it, they are
apt to take something else in its
place, and the effect of the ad-
vertising is lost.
The experience Mr.. Cole had

A Terrible Warninq.

There once was a woman who, when she
 saw paint. Was seized with a longing which made
 her grow faint Unless she could hustle and hustle and
 rush Around with spattery, smattery brush And be filled with delight As she daubed green and white And spotted the rugs and the lace and
 the plush. One time to her joy, at a bargain day
 sale She secured lots of paint that was eight
 cents a pail: She ran home and then she began on tho
 task, And her face in an hour was a pigmenty
 mask
 But she painted the floors And the woodwork and doors And the window frames? Certainly

Lewis, were born about 1920, and were It is said that Kenneth, who was a staunch Presbyterian, used to walk to church with drawn sword, for the times were troubled in Scotland, and that he had two men stationed always at the door to the church, guarding the wWshipers with drawn swords
 Kenneth had son, Rev. Allen, who in turn had a son Alexander, a tax man. His children were John, Don. aid and Allan. and in 1766 Donald and Allan emigrated to Canada. John stayed in Canada, but his three chil- dren, Donald, Roderick, and another Donald, all left home. The first went Canada, the last to Australia, and Roderick, who died in 1854, settled in the Mississippi.
 Many of the Canadian Morrisons came before very long to the United States. One of the Canadian mem- bers of the family, Roderick, the son Of Donald. was called the White Bear by the Indians, in reference to his great physical strength, and in the war of 1912 he was at the head of the Indian forces of the Lake su- perior region. William, the son of Allan. who emigrated to Canada, was the first white man to discover the sources of the Mississippi river. which he did in 1911.
 This Williams son. of the same name, left Canada and settled in Cali fornia; and Williams uncle, Allan settled in the upper region of the Mis- sissippi. He was a member of the legislature, and he married a full. blooded Indian princess.

The name Morrison, Morrison, More son, Murison and Maryson has as many explanations as it has forms. It has been variously claimed that it is name indicative of Moorish influ- ence of some kind; that it means the son of a great warrior, that it signifies mighty, and that it means the son of Maurice, or the son of the disciple of Mary; this last explanation would indicate that the name was borne by family who had some church proper ty, the property of disciple of the Virgin Mary Whatever it's meaning, 1t is one of the oldest and worthiest names in all Scotland.
 Lewis is little island on the west shore of Scotland, and there is tra- dition that the founder of the clan Morrison went there from Norway, and there is a tradition that he was Mores, son of the Norwegian king. At any rate, the family became one of the most important on the little island, and for hundreds of years the leader of the family was the hereditary judge of Lewis This position was one of great influence, for the judge had power of life and death at his fingers end. About 300 years ago, after a feud of many years duration, the Morrisons lost their position of leadership to the McLeods, and so lost their hereditary position of judge
 All the Morrisons in this country are probably descended from this an- cient Scotch family, although all of them cannot trace their descent. But there is one branch which has it's hereditary judges.

HARD TO REGULATE READING
Normal Boy and Girl Have Tastes Which They Should Be Allowed
 to Indulge.

Much nonsense has been put forth about the regulation of children's read ing This is late day to attempt rigid censorship of an urchin's literary acquaintances, and as for leading him. fhere Is probably no method better than that of our grandfathers-to turn nm loose in mans library and let him taste its strong fare. For the rest any normal boy ought to relish the apsurdlties of the dime novel, and any natural girl ought to be able to wal low In the sentimental fairy tale. b-ood-curdling adventure is as neces' sary to the diet of the one as sugary romance is to that of the other. Even the watery pap provided by the aver age Christmas book or in the pages O. tne ordinary children's publication. probably does little harm if less good 10 the adolescent morale.
 But We have a class of writers "for youth whose influence is really de moralizing. It is their postulate which the comic supplement develops to the point Of nausea. We mean that order Of scribbliRg parasites who make {. business of fattering children into the belief. or the working hypothesis" that they are wiser and better than tfeir elders.-New York Post.

 John, the father, who had married a second time, was the moderator of the first town meeting at Windham in 1742. He gained his title in the New Hampshire regiment of militia. and was present in 175S at the capture of Louisburg from the French. The in- scription on his tomb stone reads:
 Though I am buried in the dust

 The lieutenant's son, Samuel, was soldier in the revolution, and fought under Gen. Stark at the battle of Ben nington. It was at this battle that Stark said, pointing to the Hessians: Boys. You see those Hessians. King George paid four pounds, seven shil- lings and sixpence apiece for 'em I reckon you are worth more. If not, Molly Stark sleeps a widow tonight"
 Samuel came through the battle un- hurt, and his descendants possess razor case he picked up on the battle field.
 There were other first settlers named Morrison in -- Londonderry. among them Robert of Ireland, who came in 1719. and who had three chil- dren, Robert, William, and Sallie: and Samuel Jr., born in Scotland who had John. Samuel, Mary and Susanna.
 Three brothers, William. David and Hugh Morrison, established the family in 1726 in Nottingham, N. H. They had an uncle who went through the siege of Londonderry mentioned above. of whom it was said that he watched all day, hoping to catch mouse to appease his hunger, but it escaped into the wall, when he burst into a flood of tears.''
 In Virginia the family was estab- lished by John from the north of Ire land. and in Pennsylvania by Gabriel, also from Ireland. Gabriel and his wife were noted for their piety, and used to ride over three miles every Sunday to church, with their children in the saddles before them.

Sometimes, when night is creeping down And all the world about is dim, And he must go to Sleepytown,
 You lie down at the side of him And whisper soothing little things In childish words such as you frame To tell the sound of beetle wings And how the firefy gets it's flame. And soon the world grows darker yet And so the little fellows eyes Strange, hidden dangers now beset The shadow places in the skies; But you speak low and comforting And tell him none of them are there, That near him is not anything
 But what is good and kind and fair Then trembling comes his little hands Out through the dark and find your
 face,
 As though by touch he understands That he is in the safest place: And so with fingers on your cheek He sghs contentedly to sleep And you, you may not even speak, So very, very still you keep. Sometime you, as a little child, Shall fare into an unknown night And shall yearn for the stars that smiled With all their soothing, drowsy light; And you, as little cbildren do,
 May grope out through the dark of

A STRAIGHT TALK.

When the enlarged traction COM
mittee goes out to get the remainder
Of the money needed to obtain the
traction system the members will go
forth with a fixed and determined
purpose. That purpose will be to
raise the necessary amount and thus
insure the success of the movement
The committee will accomplish its OBJ
ject. Pendleton is going to win the
fight for a traction system and the
fight for the right to grow and pros
per Watch and see.
II is merely a question now as to
who will subscribe for Pendleton's
share Of the company's stock. Will
the burden be equitably distributed
among local people in accordance with
their ability to aid and in accordance
from the improvement or will the
merchants and small homeowners and
lngs have to bear the entire cost?
1t has been pointed out many times
by this paper that the big property
owners of the city will be the chief
beneficiaries Of the traction system.
The mere construction Of six miles of
line within the city and the electri-
fication Of that line should stimulate
local realty values very materially.
When the interurban lines are built,
and the company promises to begin
their construction quickly, local re-
atty should easily double in value.
This is not an idle statement made TO
induce people TO give money to the
traction movement. The statement
is made advisedly. If you doubt its
truthfulness investigate the results
wrought by the electric lines now in
operation at waIla walla, at Eugene,
at Salem and at other places through
out the northwest.
Inc advance IN Yalues VIII PROVIDE
what may be termed an Immediate re-
turn upon the investment Pendleton
will make in the traction system. But
it will not be the principal return.
The big benefit will come from the
fact that Pendleton will be placed in
line to 90 forward continuously. In
terurban lines will connect the city
with its tributary territory and thus
provide an ever increasing stream ot
business into the city. AS this section
