STRONG ARMY MEANS
LONGER PEACE PERIOD

Short talks by General FINER, Col,
onel Martin and Major Abrams were the
features of the inspection of Company
M, Third regiment, Oregon National
Guard, last evening. 1t was tn first
official visit of Finer and Martin
here
In his address, Colonel Martin, who is
a regular army man, and was secured
by the state in order to bring the
companies up to the highest state of
efficiency stated that if the United
States declines in military efficiency
during the next few years as it has in
the past, the scepter of power will pass
to the Orient. He believes in the prop.
osition that the best way to preserve
peace is to have a strong army. Be.

In well known Boston school there

low and a gentleman by birth and

One morning he had tangled himself
in a simple phrase. The teacher asked
question that should have cleared
him. But the poor lad did not know
the answer
Then the teacher leaned back In his
chair, rolled his gray eyes to the cell
ing and said for all the class to hear,
II have been told that 1t Is a hard

particularly II you have to do 1t with

OYSTERS AND DYSPEPTICs.
Whom the Bivalves May and Whom
They Should Not Be Eaten.

IUcy OHodIu NOk Do Edtons
II is popularity supposed that the
oyster digests himself in the human
stomach owing to the great size of the
liver, which is crushed as mastication
begins and is thought to digest the
molusk itself. AS the oyster, more
over, contains some 10 per cent of ex-
tremey asslmilable protein, together
with phosphorlzed fats and glycogen.
1t has always been freely administered
to convalescents, while dyspeptic bons
vivants have never hesitated to eat it
abundantly.
DR.. Prom expresses the opinion that
the oyster may be allowed, therefore
to those dyspeptics whose gastric func-
tions are deficient, In anoreIa, gastric
atony, ulcer and inclpient cancer, and
to convalescents from acute disease, as
1t is likely to improve the appetite and
to excite the stomach to increased
motor and chemical activity.
But to the large number of dyspep-
tics whose st0machs are hyperacid OF
representative DR.. Prom would forbid
the oyster as well as all other stimu-
lating foods. In many Of these dys-
peptlcs the gastric secretion is already
sufficient, and 1t is unnecessary and
unwise to increase 1t. New York

A TRIP ON THE KoNGo.
Care Free voyasing on Small Wood
Burning Steamboats,.


A trip by steamboat on the Kongo
river has its lazily amusing attrac-
tons as you descend from Stanley
vile to the railway OF Leopoldyille,
voyage Of twelve days. The boats,
small, stern wheel affairs, carry from
twenty to thirty cabin passengers each.
On the lower deck are the black trav-
elers. sometimes in stihing crowd,
sprawllng over the cargo. Most Of the
captains are Swedes. Russians or Ger
mans, and the engineers are picked up
in Sierra Leone. Two companies run
boats, and several of the mission sta
lions have steamboats, OF their own
besides
Some Of the boats have small dining
rooms; others set the tables on deck,
protected from the sun by awnings
The food Is not luxurious. and very
little fresh meat is to be had. The
fuel is wood, and every FIVE or six
hours the boat must stop to replenish
the supply from heap OF cut sticks
on the bank. These piles Of wood are
made by natives or by scattered trad
ers, often where no habitation is near.
and in such cases the captain pays for
the wood by putting money in a box
that the trusting woodsman has pro-
vided for the purpose.
Every boat carries drum, and as 1t
approaches an inhabited district the
drum is beaten to tell the natives that
goats, fruit or vegetables are wanted.
Every night the steamer ties up against
the bank, and all the black passengers
60 to sleep on shore. But they devote
most Of the night to merrymaking and
keep those on the boat as wide awake
as themselves. Youths Companion.
