THIEVES TAKE GOLD
WATCH AND DOZEN EGGS

Burglars Friday night broke into
the residence OF Mike Clemens, at
Srd and A streets, and departed with
various articles of value.
The marauders entered the house
through the basement which was
omen. and went into the kitchen by
way of the basement stairway. In
the kitchen a square meal was par
taken of by the burglars, a fine bak-
ed fish that Mrs. Clemens had pre-
Dsred for the Saturday dinner being
the niece de resistance. Entering the
room occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. J. NJ
Tunes. parents of Mrs. Clemens, a
gold watch belonging to Mrs. Tunes
was taken. Mr.. Tunes watch was
taken from his pants pocket, but was
left lying on the dresser Two or
three dollars in silver coin were TAX
en- from the house, and few lesser
articles have been missed. A compli'
ment to the Rogue river hen is found
in the fact that the midnight visitors
would pass up gold watches and 9th
er valuables and carry away with
them a dozen eggs.
The watch stolen was an Elgin T.
Jewel. 6 size, with gilt movement
The movement No. was 6661Si2 and

ber. 1545, was also scratched in the

Story Of CIemenceau.

It is said that Monsieur Clemenceau
who bears the pleasant sobriquet of
the tiger" is about to connect him
self with q new journal to appear In
the near future. This return to the
limelight from which he had not with
drawn to any distance, gives occasion
for some new stories concerning him.
One of these is that a young man
applied to him for place. do you
know anything about foreign atfairs?"
asked the tiger. "Yes, monsieur"
was the answer to which he modestly
added, "a little" Clemenceau ap-
peared greatly astonished. "Ah, truly!
Do you know what is the question Of
the Orient, the Austro-Hungarian prob
lem, and pan-Slavic politics?" "Yes,
monsieur" Then the tiger turned on
him. "This Is too wearisome. It
would amuse me much more If you
knew nothing at all"

GRUMBLER ALWAYS WITH US
Disconnected Man Aeeomplishes Some
Good, With Much Harm, Through
His Eternal Walls.

We are all natural-born grumblers.
From childhood to the grave we look
for the few things that are wrong and
forget the many that are right. When
we are strong and healthy we offer no
prayer of Thanksgiving. But let us
have an ache or a pain, cut finger
or sore thumb and hear the walls
of Distress.
We expect to be healthy, happy and
well. We feel that that is an Inherit
ance to which we are entitled. So
we. think nothing of it. But how we
magnify our little troubles!
We forget that If we inherit health
so we may also have an Inheritance
Of suffering. If we have days Of sun
shine we must also have days Of
storm. If we expect to enjoy happi-
ness we must also anticipate hours of
pain. If we have joys we must also
have sorroWs.
We never voice contentment. We
always proclaim our discomfort. Hear
the cries of unrest by those who
magnify their grievances against the
present order of things. This has
much to do with the clamor In favor
of upsetting our established form Of
government and trying experiments,
costly, unnecessary and in many in
stances foolish.
The grumblers are responsible for
the unreason, discomfort and unbe-
lief that so widely prevail. 1t has
been so always from ancient biblical
times to this so-called new century Of
progress. s."-Leslie's

Tea Was Not Popular In 1853.

A description of model country
rector's household in an issue of the
London World for 1853 shows that
tea.drinking was then far from gen
eral: His only article of luxury is
tea, but the doctor says he would
forbid that, If his wife could forget
her London education. However. they
seldom offer 1t but to the best com.
pany, and less than a pound will last
them twelvemonth."
A few years prior to this the Fe-
male Spectator declared that the tea
table costs more to support than
would maintain two children at
nurse; it is the utter destruction of
oil ECONOMY, the bane Of good house.
wtfery, and the source of idleness."

Scholars in Politics.

: Men may now have a bewildering
list of degrees without having the
scholarship which the world still
associates only with the literature and
philosophy of the ancients. Yet the
American public men of an earlier
generation filled their speeches with
quotations in the original from Plato
and Aristophanes, Virgil and Cicero,
and with illusions to classical mythol-
ogy and to historical happenings on
the shores of the blue Aegean or be-
side the tawney Tiber and were un-
derstood by all their hearers who had
a college education. The times have
changed.-BOstOn Herald. 49,

THE FIRST GRAY
HAIR SIGN OF AGE.
Easy Way to Preserve Natural Color
of the Hair and Make q
It Grow.

A harmless remedy, made from
common garden sage, quickly re-
stores gray hair to natural color The
care of the hair, to prevent it from
losing it's color and lustre, is just as
important as to care for teeth to keep
them from discoloring. Why spend
money for cosmetics and creams to
improve the complexion and yet neg
lect your hair, when gray hair is even
more conspicuous and suggestive of
age than wrinkles. or poor complex
ion? OF the two it is easier to pre-
serve the natural color and beauty
of the hair than it is to have a good
complexion.
All that is necessary is the occas-
ional use of Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy, preparation of
common garden sage and sulphur,
combined with other valuable rene
dies for dry, harsh, faded hair, dan
druff, itching scalp and falling hair.
After a few applications of this SIM
pie, harmless remedy, your hair will
gradually be restored to it's natural
color, in short time the dandruff
will be removed, and your hair will
no longer come out but will start to
grow as nature intended it should.
Don't neglect your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make
or mar your good looks. You can
buy this remedy at any drug store
for fifty cents a bottle, and your
druggist will give your money back if
you are not satisfied after using. Pur-
chase bottle today. You will never
regret it when you realize the differ
ence it will make in your appearance.
