Hair.

Miss Margery Doom:
VIII you kindly tell me what Is good
for su%perhuous hair? BY so doing you
will greatly obllge e. A.. B.
The most harmless thing that can be
used is a depilatory stone, which may
be purchased at the toilet counter In
any of the department stores. This.
however, will not effect a permanent
removal. If n does not mind the dis
comfort of the ordeal the hair may be
pulled out by the roots with a pair of
small tweezers.

Selection of Blankets.

Dear Margery Doom:
Please advise me what kind of blan-
kets to buy7 I need now mes. and
would like you to suggest points to be
considered in making a selection? BY
SO doing you will very greatly oblige
HOUSBK EBPER.
The best blankets that can be chosen
are white ones, all wool, but these. of
course. are the most expensive. Cot
ton blankets are suitable for summer
wear, and not heavy enough for win
ter. Therefore, choose blankets that
are part cotton and part wool.

LOST BABE WINS POLICE.
Nellie Grove, Three Years Old, Gets
Candy and Nickels.

Wandering from the home of her
aunt at 355 Taylor street laste yester-
day afternoon Nellie Grove, years
old and small for her age, started out
alone to explore the city, says the
Portland Oregonian.
At Tenth and Washington streets
the child became hopelessly muddled
and attracted the attention of Police
man Hill, who took her to headquar-
ters. her pretty golden curls, sur
mounted by tiny straw hat tied un-
der the chin with baby ribbon, the
charming frankness and real lever
ness of her baby prattle and her gen.
orally sunny disposition Immediately
won the hearts of the officers. For
more than an hour Nellie was tbs
center of attraction.
Fred, Chief Cox hound, the mascot
OF the force, patiently submitted tc
her embraces and became her devoted
slave in few minutes. No stage
favorite ever made a bigger hit thar
did Nellie
Policemen went out to return with
candy, and some surreptitiously gave
her nickels.
There was general sigh of regret
when Nellie's mother, who lives a
404 Ainsworth street, came to claim
the runaway babe.

Natural Resources Is Question for
Debate.

With a whole arsenal of argumen-
tative ammunition stored within their
cranial bones, the members Of the
Pendleton high school left today on
No. II for Eugene, where they will
meet the team Of the Grants Pass high
school in the finals of the state inte--
scholastic league on Friday evening.
The question to be debated is, IRE
solved, That federal conservation Of
natural resources is superior to state
conservation" and the local team
will uphold the affirmative.
This is the third consecutive time
that the Pendleton team has made
the trip to Eugene. winning the cham
pionship once and losing it once. The
only defeat which Hampton's men
have suffered in three years was ad-
ministered by the Grants Pass team
and thus the meeting of these two
schools again in the finals will be
fraught with considerable rivalry.
The winner will secure permanent
possession of the handsome silver cup
