Cause Of Unsourd Wool.


Manufacturers will not hny wool
which is not wholly sound. Again and
again have / seen buyers take a sam
ME of the fleece from The haIe and
upon finding that the threads would
uniformly tear at a certain place re
iect the entire supply OF else take it
onlv at n great reduction in price.
writes W. a. Frecho1 in Farm and
Fireside. There is on" great cause Tor
the production of weak Wooi liner
that is, a change of food ana treatment
A flock of sheep may be 10 'le best
of condition when sold. but II The new
owner does not feed and shelter it
properly the new wool that grows will
be of inferior quality and at the Ovid
ing line between that and the Old it
may be easily torn.

"Mule Day" has been fixed for
June 4 in Reardon, and committees

Mule day does not necessarily mean
that it Is for mules alone, but for
horses, colts and other live stock.

Bend country is shown on that date.

There are men who argue that Iiv-
ing is high, they might try dying. A
living man gets shaved for 10 cents
but dead one pays s. and never
kicks. A good Kersey overcoat
costs $25 but wooden one costs
500. A grave digger will plant pot
atoes for 20 cents an hour but for
planting you he gets four times us
much. A carriage to the theatre
costs 81 but one to the cemetery costs
S.. A saloon keeper will fill your
hide to bursting for50. but the cm-
balmer gets $3.50 for the job. Come
to think of it there are lots Of things
left to live for in this old world le-
spite the high prices and the con
trary weather. Xix.

Don't Breathe LaziIy.

eff you are ~consumptive, if you think
you are drifting into consumption
sing.' said a medical man.
"Of course singing alone will not
save you from consumption or cure
you. Besides singing you must have
plenty of fresh air and good food. And
speaking of fresh air, l must say that
not one person in a hundred, knows
how to tnhale it. People seldom
breathe deeply enough. They seldom
properly ventilate their lung cavities,
which resemble stufy, 1nsanitary
apartments, where all germs thrive IN
disturbed. Acquire the habit Of tax,
ing the big, deep breath which is a pri-
mary requisite for any kind Of singing,
bad or good, and the physical Joy de-
rived from 1t will never allow you to
relapse into lazy breathing. Further
more, the mere effort Of singing com
pels the singer to stand straight and
to throw out the chest. a good correc'
tive for the bad physical habits OF
weak chested people"

Killed by a Shout.

A joyful shout thoughtlessly given
by an italian smuggler on having
eluded the customs guards on the
Swiss frontier was the cause of his
six companions being killed by an
avalanche. The party, coming from
the Grisons, had, with a thousand pre-
cautions. successfully negotiated the
Forcola pass on the Swiss-1talian bor-
der. Tive of the men were loaded
with valuable c~ontraband goods, and
two acted as guides and scouts. When
they were all safely on Italian soil one
Of the guides named Maretoli gave
vent to d joyful yodel. In the still
air the least sound causes a vibration
which may set enormous masses OF
snow moving. This is what occurred
here. A quarter of a million tons OF
snow detached itself from the noun
tain side and came laundering down
upon the party, who were swept in an
instant into an abyss. Maretoli alone
was able to extricate himself.

Checkmatel

In these days, when various schemes
are being suggested by which the loser
Of personal property may recover 1t
without offering an extreme reward, 1t
Is interesting to note two advertise
ments which appeared last summer In
a German paper. In these advertise
ments nothing 80 bald as a suggestion
Of reward appeared. They seem mere
ly to present two wits fencing, and the
reader forgets the matter at stake:
Berlin, Aug. 5.-The gentleman who
found a purse, valuable beyond ex-
PLANTATION, in the Blumenstrasse, Is re
quested graciously to forward 1t to the
address of the loser, as he Is recog-
nized.
Berlin, Aug. 6.-The recognized gen
tleman who found a purse, valuable
beyond explanation. begs that the loser
will call at his house at the earliest
convenient hour.

SIMPSON S. S.
PLANNING FUND
Supt. Fletcher's Idea to
Better Institution.

If the plans of superintendent
Charles R. Fletcher are carried out
the unday school of Simpson Meth
odist Episcopal church, within q
short time will become one of the
most up-to-date and modern instftu-
tions of It's kind In the city. At
last Sundays session MI. Fletcher
gave out a printed circular, which
explained the matter thoroughly
and stated it was possible for the
members 10 raise a fund by which
the thing could be accomplished.
While Mr.. Fletcher was in Mass
achusetts this summer he received
an offer of $50 from a friend for the
purpose Of securing equipment for
the Sunday school If the school
would raise the sum of 5000, max
ing the total of $3.50 for the fund.
Rally Day will be held at the church
this coming Sunday and 1t has been
suggested to raise this amount by
that time. An envelope has been
sent out and all are asked to bring
in a contribution to the fund on this
occasion.

Extremes of Tempsrature,

Science reasons that the lowest tenn
peratures at the earth's surface are
not found directly at the poles, but at
some distance to the south Of the
north pole and to the north Of the
south pole. Likewise the greatest de-
gree Of heat is not, as might be sup
posed. to be found at the equator. but
prevails at some distance to the north
and to the south of that imaginary
line. The coolest place on the earth's
surface Of which there Is authentic
record is In Siberia, The lowest tenn
perature ever recorded in the open air
was 80 degrees below zero f. at Wer-
chajansk, central Siberia, on Jan. 15,
1885. The highest temperature Of
which there is an authentic record Is
1924 degrees above zero F. In Algeria,
northern Africa, on July II, 1879.
These places Of extreme heat and eX-
IRENE cold give a range of tempera-
ture covering the whole inhabited
world of 214 degrees, or two degrees
more than from zero to the boiling
point.

VARIETY BILL
At PROCTOR'S
Freddie Praises the Program
for First Part.

Ne for some hoops soon as I get
the coin, not skirt hoops, but the
kind you roll That fellow at Proc
tors theater, Johnnie Reilly, has
given me the bug. He is some hoop
roller. Why he's got the things
trained so they 90 wherever he
wants them to, and they waltz
back to him. And az for the baton,
well he can make q drum major look
like thirty cents. He can do some
mighty nifty stunts with a lot Of
balls too, but them hoops have got
my eye.
Kennedy Brothers and De Milt,
two fellows and q girl, have got a
pretty clever act-and say, one OF
the Kennedy boys sure can dance.
He's got a lot of new steps, like
sliding across the stage on his an
kles, and throwing himself around
like he was going to fall and don't.
The girl has got a dandy voice, and
wears ONE pretty dresses-most as
pretty as she is-and she can dance
too-and so can the other fellow.
They've got some funny talk in the
act that made a hit with me.
Talk about class; well you want
to cast your lamps on Minnie Allen.
First she comes out singing, The
Mystic Air"-I think-and she does
a line of tricks while she's singing
it that's most as good as the real
thing. Then she gets busy with the
piano and sings one of them talky
songs about What the Cat Brings
In"-and say, that's some song.
Murphy & LeMar, two fellows,
was pretty good. They do a lot of
funny talking, sing a bunch of par
odies that's great, and finish up with
one of them dressed up like a sure
enough devil with horns, and they
sing to each other like some opera
thing I've heard.
The sketch called "a Vaudeville
Broker" with Simon & Shields and
five people is some screamer. Gee,
it's funny. The scene is in a vaude-
vile Office where folks go to get Jobs
on the stage, and you saw
such a bunch-the ~tragedian had
me falling of the seat-and, gee
whiz-you should take a wink at
the soubrettes-and don't forget
the typewriters and the Office boy.
The finish is something new. It's a
sort of ~burlesque on moving pic
tures-can't describe it. You'll
have to take a look in. Believe me,
you'll laugh some.
So long. FREDDIE.

A FRENCH CALENDAR.
rhe One That Was Adopted During
the Revolution.

the Revolution.
In the French revolution the ma
donal convention adopted a new cal
thirty days each. The five days in the
year thus left were disposed of by
making them Festivals" The months
were named not January, February,
etc, but Vendemaire, Brumaire, Fri
Inaire, Nivose, Pluviose, Ventose, Ger
minal, Floreal, Prairial, Messidor,
Thermidor and F%ructidor.
Each of these names had q meaning
Instead of naming a month meaning
lessly after a heather god, as we name
January after Janus and March after
Mars, the names represented the spe-
cial characteristics of the month.
Fructidor, for instance, which includes
part Of what we call September, means
"the fruity MONTH Germinal, the first
Of the spring months, running from the
last Of March to the nsddle of April,
means "tbe month of buds" and Flo
real, which follows it, the "howery" or
"foweral" month.
Thermidor, which mean the "hot
MONTH" is the month which under the
republican calendar included part Of
July and part Of August. The political
significance Of the word arises from
the fact that the revolution which
~vcrtnrcv RopespioEro ana cnaeo the
reign of terror occurred on the 9th
Of the month of Thermidor, or, as we
should say, July 81, 1904. 1t was call
ed 'the revolution Of Thermidor," as
we speak Of "the September massa-
cres," and the revolutionists were nick
named "Thermidortans." The inventor
Of the calendar was Romme.-New
York Times.
