The Home Circle
Thoughts from the Editorial Pen

In a distant city, in a large, hos
pitable old southern style house of
pleasant memories, lies a woman,
her wrinkled hands folded across her
quiet breast, her beautiful eyes
closed to the grief about her for the
first time in over seventy years.
would like to say a few words about
her, though my heart is heavy and
sad. Her life is one of the most
beautiful lessons ever taught by ex-
ample, She was one of those rare
souls who spoke love always. If in
her heart she could find no good to
speak-and | doubt if any person
ever crossed her path that she did
not divine some of the good in him
at least she would speak no evil. In
her youth she must have ben good
looking, with the features, the color
ing and the figure of beauty. In her
mature years she was beautiful, from
the character building which had
gone on through all the years, giving
to her eyes the depth of unspeakable
tenderness which drew people to her,
wherever she went.
She led so quiet and simple a life
that it might have been supposed
that her influence would have been
restricted to her family and her
small circle of acquaintances. But
such was not the case. A charity as
sweet and broad as hers, a love as
expansive, found its way out into the
world, and in all the city where she
made her home, no name, perhaps,
was spoken which brought the whis-
pered blessings, from high and low,
from rich and poor, as did hers.
She was not a fashionable woman.
But one never noticed her clothes.
There was a majesty in her bearing
a benevolence in her glance, that
made mere clothes seem trivial and
commonplace. There was true aris-
tocracy in her every movement,
which made people know that the
bluest blood in the nation flowed in
her veins. Yet there was not a crea-
ture so illiterate and plebian in the
whole community who would not go
to her in trouble.
She did not go abroad to dispense
charity. She did not need to do So
Those in need of charity came to her
doorstep, certain of her sweet under
standing and help
She was not a society woman,
though she could have been, had she
so desired, for none in the town bore
prouder name. But she had no
time for society. She never played a
game of bridge in her life. Golf was
to her name. She had never
learned to dance. Yet there was not
a society woman in town but would
stop her busy round of pleasure-go-
ing for chance to talk with her.
/ She was not rich woman as the
world counts riches. Yet of her
abundance she gave unstintedly, and
none who partook of her wealth so
lavishly given ever forgot the gift or
the giver
Once, when she was quite a young
woman, with her brood of small chill
dren about her, two young girls who
had been driven from the place they
called home, by the police, came to
her door. 1t was late in the evening
and it was storming. Her own life
was so pure and white that had she
been the average church member,
she would have shut the door upon
them and turned them back upon
Broad Road they had tried.
Even there the story of her sweet
ness and her charity had penetrated
And these girls, with no friend in all

CALLS IN FIRE PATROLS.
VIII Affect Saving Estimated al
SIG, 6,O0O-State Ahead $4,000.

Because of the recent heavy rains,
State Forester Elliott considers for
est patrols unnecessary and has is
sued orders calling in the federal pa
trolls and also those of the state de-
partment. The timber is very damp
at this season and before it gets a
chance to become dry enough to en-
courage a conflagration, the fall
rains will have arrived, says Mr.. Ell
liott.
BY thus doing away with the pa
trolls the chief forester estimates that
about $4,000 will be saved out of the
federal appropriation known as the
Weeks fund, and the state will also
save in the neighborhood of $4,000.
The forest fires reported this season
have been of minor consequence and
the monetary loss almost nothing
compared to previous years.

Forty-eight distinct measures to
be voted on at the coming general
election. That is going some. The
people with the initiative are like a
small boy with his presents on
Christmas morning. At first he
gathers them together and insists on
playing with all of them at the same
time. AS the newness wears off he
discards some, later Others, and at
last he tends only to the useful and
interesting ones. After while when
they become familiar with its proper
use, the people of Oregon will grow
less insistent in putting the initiative
in action every time they have the
stomach ache. The initiative and
referendum are wholesome and safe
measures, when put only to their
proper use, They are intended to be,
and should be, but measures of re-
straint and correction. They are in
tended to be brought into action to
check vicious measures proposed and
enacted by the Legislature, and to
force wholesome ones when ulterior
outside influences restrain the legis-
lature from their enactment. They
will both prove popular and whole
some when put only to that use.

Earliest Production Of Steel.

The first steel produced in this
country was probably made in Con-
necticut in 1928 by Samuel Higley
and Joseph Dewey. Crucible steel
was first successfully produced in
the United States in 1882 at the
works of William and John H. Gar
rard, at Cincinnati, Ohio. Bessemer
steel was first made in this country
in September, 1864, by William F.
Durfee at an experimental plant at
Wyandotte. Mich, and open-hearth
steel in 1864 by the New Jersey Steel
& Iron Co., at Trenton, n. j.

Forced to Move
 Before September 1
We Must Make Room for Material to be Used in Our Contracting
 Business.

This time of the year we arel crowded for space to store fixtures and material to be installed on work under construction.
 Gas stoves and ranges take up much floor space and we have concluded to move our entire stock of GARLAND GAS STOVES AND RANGES before September 1st. During the month of August only we will sacrifice any stove in stock at actual cost at the factory.
 This will give you a very rare op- poraunity to buy one of the celebrated Garland Stoves or Ranges at a lower price than they have ever been sold and lower than they ever will be again.
 We are not going to quit selling the Garland Ranges Not by any means.
 There are too many dealers that would like to get this agency. The Garland Stoves and Ranges are recognized the superior of any made.
 We have two hotel or large board ing house ranges that we will sell at a specially low figure.
 Call and examine the line. Let us show you the many ways in which the Garland is so vastly superior to the others.
 Let us refer you to the great mum ber of expert and fastidious house keepers in Hot Springs that will tell you of the happy results they have ob- taied by using the Garland Stoves or ranges.
 They are the only fool proof stoves on the market. Perfectly safe in the hands of the most ignorant servant.
 Remember this offer only holds good for the stoves and ranges in stock and during the month of August. After September 1, the regular price will be maintained. We will not order extra stoves at the price now being of- fered.

WILSON PGSES FOR
 CHARCOAL PORTRAIT
LIKENESS WILL BE USED FOR CAMPAIGN FANNIE Rs AND
 SIGNS DURING FALL.

New York, Aug S.-Governor Woodrow W ilson sat for three hours today in a studio while an artist drew a charcoal portrait of him which will be usesd for campaign purposes. To- night he went to theater, accom- panied by his youngest brother. J. R. Wilson, newspaper man of Nash vile. Tenn.
 The governor met the newspaper correspondents tonight at a local ho. tel and was asked concerning those blanks in the Baltimore platform which he did not mention in his speech of acceptance.
 Omissions did not mean opposi- tion' explained the governor. "The things omitted did not happen to come in my theme"
 With respect to the navy, the gov. ernor indicated that discussion of the subject at the present time might be construed as an assumption on his part "of the privilege of directing the house of representatives" He inti. mated he would take up in his future speeches the navy question as well as other issues not touched upon in yes terday's speech.
 Telegrams lauding Governor Will sons speech of acceptance were given out at national headquarters today from many prominent democrats, in. cluding W. J. Bryan, Speaker Clark, Governor Marshall, Senator Kern of Indiana, Louis b Brandeis of Bos- ton Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia. Mayor Fitzgerald of Boston, Norman E. Mack, Thomas A. Edison of New York, Mayor Harrison of Chicago, Governor O'Neal of Alabama, and Elmois w. Hurst of Illinois.
 Norman E. Mack called on the new national chairman, William F. Me combs, today, and promised to visit national headquarters if possible in the three weeks and render as much assistance as he could
 Mir McCombs today met a number of national committeeman from states regarded as doubtful. He will con. tinue to have conferences in the next few days with committeeman who are expected to bring detailed information on conditions. Among the callers at national headquarters today were National Committeeman Thomas Tag gart of Indiana, Martin J. Wade of Iowa, Charles Boechenstein of nli- nois, E. O. Wood of Michigan, Sena- tor Watson of West Virginia. State Chairman w. l.. Finley of Ohio and b. c. Shields of Michigan.
