WEATHER SAMPLES

A gray day dawned all veied In mist'
And then 1t rained steady pour,
TIL 10! the sun broke forth and kissed
The ground that had been soaked Deiore'
The clouds in parting showed the blue,
And bright and warm the sunshine iay'
When suddenly soft flakes OF snow
Fell where the sunbeams were at play.
The orb Of day hid his face
And left the flakes to play alone'
But twas not long-I looked again
No snow! The his brightest shone.
My heart beat joyful at the sight,
And thus thought would end the DAY,
When, even l gazed, there formed
mist that to rain gave way.
But when night fell, the stars came out,
And then the moon rose big and bright,
And when there broke another day,
The ground with hoarfrost glistened white
Thus Oregonans have no need
To seek for change in foreign clmes
When in one day they find condensed
The weather of all lands and times.

that interested his visitor, Taft be-
came known as one of the most jovial
men in the public life. 1t Is no won
der that In the 20 years that ne held
these other positions he established
reputation which he could not con-
tinue after becoming the chief mag
lstrate Of the nation.
The fellows who had easy access
to Taft hobnobbed with him, advised
him, told him stories, listened to MS
Jokes and told him theirs, and, IN
fact. helped him to run his share OF
the government-in their minds
have not been admitted to the pres
ence or the confidence OF Mr.. TAFT
since he became president. They are
convinced that Taft Is in the hands
OF bad advisers and that he is run
ming his administration on the rocks
Hundreds OF men were able to see
Roosevelt who are not able to see
Taft. These include many journal
lists, magazine writer's, newspaper
men and congressman. All those who
have been shut out from the presi-
Dental presence and can neither give
advice and be told why 1t cannot be
accepted-as happened in the days
OF Roosevelt-are convinced that the
present administration Is a failure
and that It Is likely to 90 to pieces
almost any time.
Beyond question a little more
oDenness in dealing with the class
that used to reach Roosevelt would
be very beneficial to the Taft admin
istration. But It is not Taft's style
since he became president. He
neither has the time nor the inclina-
tlon to listen to what everybody has
to say as he did in the years gone by,
and he Is obliged to give attention to
many more important affairs than he
did when he was a subordinate OF a
vigorous and active president He
leaves a trail of disappointed would
be advisers behind him. He increases
to a large extent the Knockers s
Club" and he will no doubt hear and
read a great deal about the failure
of his administration along the same
lines as that OF his precedessor. The
two men differ too much in tempera-
ment and in everything else to ex-
pect that this administration is going
to be duplicate of the one that pre-
ceded It.

yet will try to do so for courtesy's
sake, even though the spirit ana flesn

Visitors should not send or take
flowers without knowing whether the
patient cares to have them. Many
persons can endure flowers in

beauty may be Frightening, yet when
there is deep physical agony, as
some must suffer, the flowers are
not cared for nor appreciated as they

Pacific Coast Said 10 Have Best View
Will be Brilliant Spec
tacle.

OAKLAND, Cal, Feb. 3.--Halley's
comet will give the Pacific Coast
close brush this year on May 19, be-
tween the hours OF and 3 o'clock
a. m, and the brush" will be some
thing spectacular, says Professor
Charles Burkhalter, Of the Chabot
observatory.
The earth will then pass through
the last OF the 10000, ,000-mlle tail OF
the celestial visitor, and the result
ought to be as dazzling a piece OF
fireworks as this generation has ever
witnessed.
Tragic Situation Possible.
The astronomer insists that he has
nothing to say" about so dramatic
situation, fraught not only with
awe-inspiring possibilities to the
dwellers on the globe, but fraught
as well with possibilities OF tragic
moment. Whether or not the earth's
dive through the comets tail Will
mean anything more than dazzling
starry spectacle, Professor Burkhalter
will not predict. He only says:
"Walt and see."
The news that Halley's comet Will
be seen only on the Pacific Coast has
not hitherto been published, although
the fact has been known for some
time to the astronomers OF the world
many of wnom will journey to Cali
fornia to be one the scene when the
great phenomenon takes plac.
Path Between Earth and Sun.
In discussing the comet, the as
tronomer says:
Astronomers Cromelin and Cow
ell, OF the Royal Observatory al
Greenwich, have probably made the
most exhaustive researches into the
history OF the comet
According to the computations
Halley's comet will reach the de-
scendlng node on May IS, 1910
when It will be in direct line be-
tween the orbits Of the earth and the
sun, and 1t so happens that the
earth will reach that particular point
Of its orbit about the same time
should the calculations Of the astron'
omers prove to be rigidly exact, the
comet will pass directly between the
earth and the sun between the hours
OF and 10 o'clock, standard Pacific

Observations should Bc Easy.

1T Is unfortunate that the sun
will be rather low, but II viii be OF
sufficient altitude TO make good OBJ
scryatlons possible. Should the
transit take place as predicted, It
will last about an hour, and should
the comet cross the suns disk cen
trany, It will give the visiting astron-
omers splendid opportunity TO
study comet under the most favor
able conditions. Az the vagaries OF
comets are as little understood as
they were when men first began the
study ot the heavens, the results
OF the observations may not be all
that is hoped for
Another feature OF the visit lies
In the fact OF the nearness o, the
comet TO the earth-a distance Of
100000 miles As the tail OF the
comet should be about 2O,O0O,OOO
miles long and pointing directly away
from the sun, It will doubtless ho en-
countcrcd hy the earth, but ON that
point have nothing TO say"

Professional Eaters

Many striking customs of their past are still
preserved by the Indians of the northwest, and
of these none is interesting than peculiar
practise yet followed by the Sioux of the Devils
Lake reservation.
1t appears, competent authority, that from
time immemorial these Sioux have adhered to
etiquette whereby it is the bounden duty of
the host to supply his guest with all the food he
may desire, and a rule the apportionment set
before the visiting Indian is in excess of the ca.
pacity of a single
On the other hand, by the same custom the
guest is obliged to eat all that is placed before
him, else he grossly insults his entertainer. Now
it was found that this practise would work a
hardship, but instead of dispensing with the Gus
tom the Indian method of reasoning was applied
and what is known the professional eater was
brought to the front.
While the guest is supposed to eat all that is
placed before him, it the same purpose
IL his neighbor assists in devouring the bounti-
fui repast, the main object being to have the
plate clean when the meal shall be finished
It is not always practicable to depend upon
a neighbor at table TO assist in getting away with
large dinner, and in order to insure the final
consumption of the allotted portion visiting Indi-
ans call upon these professional eaters whose
duty it is to sit beside them through a meal and
eat what the guest eats
The professional eaters are never looked upon
in the light of guests but as travelling COM
panions with a particular duty to perform
These eaters receive from 81 to 81 and even
IS for each meal where they assist. It is stated
that one of the professional eaters was known
to have disposed of some seven pounds of beef
at a sitting.-New YORK Herald

tional Lawn Tennis association formed and
rules adopted, which have. however, been modi-
fed and altered from time to time, and since then
the national championships have always been
played at Newport, R. l. A number Of English
players have frequently taken part In these
championship games with marked success at
first which gradually diminished as the Ameri-
can play developed along national lines. These
may be summedsup under these heads: The screw
service, whereby the ball is made to curve in its
downward fight, like the "out drop" of base
ball pitcher, imparting a double and most baf-
fling motion; the practise of volleying from
position close to the net that these strokes
kill the ball; the development of the stop"
volley, whereby the ball is simply stopped with
a loosely held racket and falls over the net

gives the ball back twist. The American asso-
