upsets Salmon Theories.

Several of the we'll established theo-
ries regarding the habits of salmon are
being upset by facts which have come
to light in the present season.
It has always been supposed that
salmon returned to the river the
fourth year after being Matched. but
this season not less than fifteen
marked salmon which were turned out
in the Chinook hatchery six years ago
have been caught in the Bakers Bay
traps. Reports from other points on
the river also are that five female
salmon which have spawned have
been caught in the traps, although It
has always been supposed that the fe'
male fish perish Immediately after
having spawned.
These salmon we're in fairly good
condition. SO that they could not have
assembled to the upper reaches Of the
river, and they are believed to have
been salmon which spawned, perhaps
prematurely. fin some of the tributa-
ries of the lower Columbia.-Portland

"Dowaqer" Goino Out,

The word "dowager" seems to be
going quite out of fashion, and many
who should SO style themselves prefer
to use instead their Christian names.
Strictly speaking the mother of a mar
ried peer or baronet is the dowager,
but It has become the custom when
two ladies bear the same title to call
the elder one by her Christian name,
the distinction dowager being dropped
altogether.
At court. however. all widows Of
peers and baronets are styled dowager
when the peer or baronet regnant Is
married. The Christian name was
adopted some years ago in cases
where there were more than two la
dies bearing the same title in order
to make a distinction between the
dowager and the wife of the holder of
the title, and the innovation has be-
come so popular that peeresses and
baronets' wives who should style
themselves dowager elect to be known
by their Christian names Thus the
widow of the late earl of Dudley Is
known as Georgiana Lady Dudley, but
actually she is Dowager Lady Dudley.

CAKE IN SELECTING WOOD
Compound Microscope Used by Mod.
crn cablnetmakers for Exam
lnatlon Of Material.

Not very long g timber was Sc
lected entirely according to its exter.
nal appearance. The diameter and
length OF the piece. the s~traightness
OF grain, sometimes the weight suficed
to determine both Its commercial value
and its destination.
1t Is very different nowadays. With
the increase In consumption and the
decrease In the local production OF
wood 1t has become necessary to trans
port timber Of every variety and OF
many places Of origin. Furthermore.
the diversified industries of the pres.
ent day require a corresponding d.
versity In the wood employed.
1t is evident that very different
qualities are required for an umbrella
handle, a barrel stave, a billiard cue. a
carriage frame. etc.
The hand magnifying glass. which
was first employed, has ceased to suf-
fee for the exact determination Of the
structure Of the wood. The compound
microscope is now used for the minute
and careful examination of longitudinal
and transverse sections of a specimen
OF timber the commercial value and
che proper Industrial employment Of
which it is desired to determine.-Sci-

Praised Nevada Camp.

In a contributed article in the Army
and Navy Register the recent camp
of instruction of the Missouri National
Guard at Nevada, is cited as one Of
the best camps of the kind ever es-
tablished. Capt. Howell Of the Sixth
United States Infantry says: Two
important military events have De-
Cured during the present year that
makes it a notable one in the devel-
opment of our organized militia. First,
the organization of the first field army
district by the war department in G..
o. 35, 1910, and second, the estab-
lishment of the several camps of in
struction for the officers of the Ma
tional Guard. One of the best and
most original of these camps of in.
struction was that of the National
Guard of Missouri at Nevada, Mo-, July
2 to II. The plan of this camp was
the idea of Adjt. Gen. Rumbold Of
Missouri, and it's establishment the
result of his t~ireless energy, persist.

Jud qes' Wiqs.

The wig is only worn by English
barristers to give them a stern, judi
cial appearance, and no n can say
that it fails in this respect. The GUS
tom was originated by a French
judge in the seventeenth century
when, happening to don a marquis
wig n day, he found 1t gave him
such a stern and dignifed~ appearance
that he decided to get one for himself
and wear 1t at all times in court
This he did, and the result was so
satisfactory from a legal point Of
view, that not only judges, but bar
r~isters, also took up the custom
throughout Europe.
