John Vaughn and wife met with
a slight. accident while out driving
on Sunday evening. They were IN
the buggy and speeding their black
driver, and when coming around the
turn in the road north of the school
house the horse took fright at ayel,
low dog lying beside the road, ana
jumped up the hign bank, turning
the buggy over snd rolling the oo-
cupants in the dust. No one was
the slightest injured, but the turn
ing over ofthe buggy broke ont the
shafts and the horse took llVely
spin. Mr.. Vaughn was not to oe
deprived of his ride, however, so he
caught up the horse again, attached
the broken parts of the rig, shook
offthe dust and proceeded as If moth
ing had happened. That it was not
serious is certainly a streak OF rare
good fortune.

Hand Badly Cut.

While engaged in a scufile at the
barber shop of Clark and Hale
last Friday afternoon, George Cook
was made to fall through one of the
front windows, with the result that
his right hand was very badly cut
across the back. The cut was deep
enough to sever all the leaders on
the back Of the hand, and it was
necessary to take him to the operat-
ing table where it took several honrs
work to gather the leaders together
again and get the hand properly
bound up for the healing process to
take place without making the hand
stiff. George will be laid off from
work for some time, and may be
little careful in mixing up with win
dow glass in the future.

The reception of the Juniors to
the Seniors of the Heppner High
School at the club building on last
Friday evening was decided sue
cess and very pleasant affair.
The hall was certainly decorated in
a manner that excelled anything
yet attempted in Heppner and
those having the work in charge
are entitled to much credit for the
splendid taste displayed. The Ju-
niors rendered a short program and
then the grand march was called.
This feature was unique. The hall
was darkened and each participant
was given a lighted Chinese lam
tern which was carried with beau
tIful effect through all the various
figures of the march. Following
the march dancing was engaged in
until after u o'clock by those who
desired, and others spent the time
ir playing card games and social
intercourse. Music was furnished
by an orchestra of four pieces, and
punch and waters we're served by a
couple of young ladies from coy
corner in the front of the hall.
About $50 were present at the re-
ception.

CANDYMAN'S ANGER PUT ON
Store When Customers Are
Present.

The recent flood of pure food matter
in the papers calls to mind couple
of stories told of and by travelling
salesman who in 1876 represented the
first big glucose factory established in
Buffalo. He sold the stuff to the can
dy makers by the carload. One day a
friend met him in a Boston hotel and
he was in a state of great indignation.
1t seems that he had been thrown out
by one of the big candy makers. He
was boiling with rage because the
dealer who had so treated him had
been using glucose for year or more
and in large quantities and he could
not understand the change in his atti-
tude.
While the two were talking the
candy maker came into the hotel,
walked up to them, smiled at the glu-
cose salesman and said: when
threw you out this morning my store
was full of customers and wasn't TAX
ing any chances on some one of them
not knowing you and your business.
| wouldn't have it known that | am u.s.
ing your glucose for all the profit
that's in it. Never come to my store
again. Let me know that you are here
and I'll call on you. Send me ten bar
rels at once. And now let's go take
a drink"
The other yarn was about a New
York concern. A grocery house had
purchased ten barrels of glucose. AS
an experiment they fitted up a top
floor as a honey factory. First they
had the floor concerted, then they
poured in the glucose and on the top
of it floated number of very thin
boards pierced with holes like a col
ander. Several hundred bees were
then turned loose in the room. They
alighted on the boards and their
weight was sufficient to bring up the
glucose through the holes in the
boards. Hives had been prepared
around the room and when the bees
were surfeited they went into the
hives and stored the honey. 1t was
pure honey" and, according to the
salesman, was sold as such.

LAWYER CURED OF ECZEMA

while attending school at Lebanon,
Ohio, in 1882, 1 became afflicted with
boils, which lasted for about two
years. when the affection assumed the
form OF an eczema on my face, the
lower part of my face being inflamed
most Of the time. There would be
water-blisters rise up and open, and
wherever the water would touch it
would burn, and cause another one to
rise. After the blister would open,
the place would scab over, and would
burn and itch so as to be almost I'M
bearable at times. In this way the
sores would spread from one place to
another, back and forth over the
whole of my upper lip and chin, and
at times the whole lower part of my
face would be solid sore. This con-
dition continued for four or five years,
without getting any better, and in fact
got worse all the time, so much SO
that my wife became alarmed lest it
prove fatal.
During all this time of boils and
eczema, I doctored with the best ply
sicians of this part Of the country, but
to no avail. Finally / decided to try
Cuticura Remedies, which l did, TAX
ing the Cuticura Resolvent, applying
the Cuticura Ointment to the sores,
and using the Cuticura Soap for wash
ing. In very short time I began to
notice improvement, and continued to
use the Cuticura Remedies until was
we'll again, and have not had re-
currence of the trouble since, which is
over twenty years. l have recon-
mended Cuticura Remedies to others
ever since, and have great faith in
them as remedies for skin diseases"
(Signed) A. c. Brandon, Attorney-at-
Law, Greenville, o., Jan. II, 1911.
Although Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment are sold everywhere, a sample
of each, with 32-page book, will be

cura," Dept. 3 K. Boston.

tuberculosis Patients Neglected.

Out of more than 225 public hos
pitfalls for the insane, with a popula-
ton of fully 10000, only 70, or less
than one-third, make any provision
for their tuberculous inmates, ana
this, too, in spite of the fact that the
percentage of deaths from this disease
is very high among this class or peo-
pie. Such is the substance of a state
ment made recently by the Nationai
Association for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis. Seventy hos
pitfalls in % states, providing all told
about 1850 beds for tuberculous IN
sane patients, sums up the provision
made for this class Of sufferers, al
though the percentage Of deaths from
tuberculosis among the insane ranges
from so to 200 per cent. higher than
among the general population.

"WOLF SCALPS" REJECTED
Experts Discover Attempted Fraud
in Bounty CIaims-Scaips We're
Those of Squirrels.

Madison.-By sending the scalps
to Washington the secretary of state
has discovered that ten so-called
wolves were mere squirrels. Secre-
tary Frear was thus able to save the
state $102 on a consignment Of thir-
teen scalps sent in from Burnett
county, and to nullify false claim
for bounty which it is alleged is one
of a long succession of flakes with
which the state and counties have
been afflicted for many years.
1t is estimated that fully 100000
has been paid out in bounties through
false claims in years past, and
through the operation of the bounty
law which requires counties to pay
an equal amount on an animal with
the state, the counties have lost a
like sum.

NORTHERN CROPS

HIGHER THAN EVER, SAYS
AGRONOMY EXPERT.
ALFALFA TO BE PRIZE CROP
Will Be Extra Cutting This Year
Recent Rains Brighten Prospects
All Over State-Corc Growing by
Leaps and Bounds.

MadisOn.-One fact emphasized by
the present season of crops is the
surprising stand of northern Wiscon-
sin crops compared with those else
where in the state. According to
Prof. r. A. Moore, university agrono-
mist, reports from the university sub
station near Ashland tell of wheat
running thirty-siX bushels to the
acre. Over thirty bushels of peas to
the acre are reported.
Glover seed running from four to
eight bushels TO the acre is this sea
sons remarkable showing, said Prof.
Moore, and serves to emphasize the
great opportunity for the farmer at
time when clover is worth $13 a
buShel.
Recent rains have frightened the
situation. An excellent crop is in
sight and late potatoes have been
helped exceedingly. A much better
yield than had been anticipated Is
promised. Southern Wisconsin has
been wonderfully revivified by the
plentiful moisture.
Corn is growing by leaps and
bounds" said Prof. Moore, land al
falfa is the prime crop of all. There
will be an extra cutting this year"

An Irishman there inherited a coal
mine up in the state. He immedi.
ately entered the lists for one of the
big coal contracts and went around
20 say a good word for his coal.
The man who was letting the con.
.ract heard him a moment, and then
interrupted with:
That's all right, but how about
British thermal units?''
The other, being new to the coal
business, did not know that coal is
:ated now according to the British
.hermal units in tests.
"Phat's that" he said.
How many British thermal units
ire there in your coal?"
The Irishman blinked his eye and
Inorted a bit.

Day by day has Dr. Anderson de-
tailed his journey. OF the entire first
year spent in the north his report says
nothing, the letter he had sent out

word was received from the adven-
turers being sufficient in his opinion
to cover that period. OF the second
by the party had either been eaten
or stolen by the bears and wolverines,
he says but little more.
At the end Of their trip, when death
and starvation stared them in the face,
they stumbled across the carcass of
bowhead whale. DR.. Anderson, writ
ing of the find, said, "The carcass was
evidently two or three years old, but
the meat was fairly well preserved"
Although it was still early in the aft
ernoon the party camped Immediately
and there dogs and men Toasted side
by side. 'The meat" wrote DR.. An
derson, was fairly palatable, slightly
acrid but not offensive and all in all
was very filing"

both Mr.. Stefansson and DR.. Ander-
son express themselves as being de-
sirous of returning again to the coun-
try in which they spent two such ter
rible years to complete the work they
started.

Character in the Eye.

Beware of the man who does not
look you clearly in the eye. He has
possibilities of evil in his nature.
There are eyes which are luminous,
others which seem to be yelled be-
hind curtain.
Men and women of the world are
accustomed to judge human nature by
the expression of the eye. Many peo-
pie read character by the eyes, and
can thus distinguish the false from the
loyal, the frank from the deceitful, the
hard from the tender, the energetic
from the indolent, the sympathetic
from the Indifferent.
