Marketing of hogs and sheep at
North Portland during the month
showed a decrease as compared with
the previous months, but there were
greater offerings OF both cattle and
calves. For the year today the show
ing at North Portland was an in
crease for everything except cattle.
The increase in the marketing Of
hogs during the first four months of
the year was especially significant, in
dicating that the industry has made
far greater strides than has been gen.
orally anticipated. During the four
months a total of $3.50 head was
marketed at North Portland, or 31,-
900 head more than year ago for
the same period Last years totals
up to this time were almost doubled
this season.
March was a poor month for NUT
ton supplies in the North Portland
market. this being the smallest move
ment of the year to date. For the
month total arrivals were 14,142 head,
while the greatest marketing was in
February, when 24,76 head appeared
here. For the four months of the
year to date there was an increase
OF 10,S9S head in this seasons mar
keting of sheep, as compared with

quick, with brief pause in each posi-
ton. They are valuable in that they
involve many muscles and large mus
cles, so that they particularly stimu-
late circulation and respiration and
possibly perspiratien.
Exercise 8.
From the position Of Figure 10
jump quickly to that of Figure IL,
keeping the elbows straight and
bringing the arms forward and down
ward. Note that in Figure 10 the feet
are together and the weight is on the
tip toes, while in Figure II the feet
are well apart. Return. to the first
position with jump and repeat ten
or fifteen times at first. The Vigor of
this exercise is more important than
the perfection of its execution.
Exercise 7.
From the position of Figure IL,
with the feet together and the weight
on hands and toes, bring the feet for
ward with a Jump (both feet at the
same tiIhe) to the position Of Figure
IS, with the feet apart and the knees
outside the arms. Return to the first
position with a jump and repeat,
keeping the head up all the time. This
furnishes fourth strong abdominal
exercise and involves legs, back,
shoulders, arms and neck, as well. |
1t may be repeated ten or fifteen
times at first.
Exercise 8.

somewhat less hard exercise than the
preceding and begins the. diminuendo
toward the end of the session.
From the natural standing position,
with the arms ct the sides, fling the
arms sidewise and upwards, at the
same time spreading the feet with
jump so that the position of Figure
is assumed. Return to the first posi-
ton and repeat twenty times.
Exercise 9,
From the ordinary standing posi-
ton, with the arms at the sides, raise
the arms sidewise and upwards, at
the same time rising on the toes and
inhaling deeply until the position of
Figure 10 is reached. Hold this for
an instant and return slowly to the
first position, exhaIing as the arms
descend. Repeat slowly about fifteen
times, reaching high toward the cell
ing and breathing as deeply as possi-r
BILE during the first part of the exer-
else.
Of course, these particular exer-
cises are not especially new nor are
they better than others which have
been and can be suggested, but they
viii provide ten or fifteen minutes of
work. which can be made sufficiently
vigorous for a strong and active man
if each movement is made as hard as
possible and repeated a considerable
number of times or can be made sufi-
GENTLY light for almost anyone who
can take exercise at all. They are
also grouped in a good order, for use
and variety can be given, if desired,
by different combinations even if the
positions are limited to those which
nave been described.

HIS SELF CONTROL.

He Proved 1t to His Own but Not Hi
 Famiy's Satisfaction.
 MT. Brown was excitable by nature but he often prided himself audibly upon his self control. One night whil, the family were gathered at the te: table the chimney began to roar Tn. furnace draft had been opened and for gotten. Straightway panic ensued.
 Don't lose your heads-keep cooIH cried MT. Brown. Its nothing ser, ous."
 He dashed up the stairs, discoverc. that the metal cap over the only up used stovepipe hole was already Mt hot, and dashed down again faste shan he went up.
 Keep cool!" he gasped as he passet through the room where the fami!, had gathered in nervous apprehension "I'll be back in a minute.'
 He was back in less than that time having observed that the flames were spouting several feet high from til. chimney and that shower of spark. was falling upon the roof. "Wh-where's the stepladder'" h. panted.
 He was gone before any one coult answer the question and presently Wa: heard believing from the roof of tn, wood shed. He presented a heroic figure in the glare of the blazing chim ney.
 "I'ye got one end of the hose" h, called. "Some. one attach the othe end and turn on the water-quick" Two long minutes passed.
 "Why doesn't some one do as or dered?" he thundered. Do you wan the place to burn up?''
 we can't, Henry" called Mrs. Brow1 tremblingly. "You haven't got tht hose. You've got the COW rope. was hanging next to the hose in th shed, and anyway the roof is covered with ice. and don't think tbere's an. great danger outside. You'd better g and watch the chimney from the in side."
 A half hour later the family wer again at the tea table.
 If this had happened in som homes," remarked MT. Brown, "th family would have lost their head completely and sent in an alarm. Sel control is an excellent thing and ia from common.''
 Indeed, it is,'' agreed Mrs. Brow emphatically.-Youth's Companion.

Where Do the Watches Go?


 What becomes of the watches? The average man does not buy more than about two or three watches in the course of his whole life, and yet the manufacturers keep on making new watches by the hundred thousands. Who buys them all? No statistics can answer the question. What becomes of the old watches? What did you do with the one you discarded when you got your present watch? Where is' 1t now7 It was a silver watch and 1t kept good time for years-that old watch, that predecessor of the gold one that you now possess. You had a strong affection for it. You called it "she," and sometimes in the solitude of your room you may have caught yourself saying a word or two to it aloud. The watch certainly talked to you in the middle of the night. Heine's watch conjugated Hebrew by the hour. The old watch had kind of ring ing tick like rivehng machine, and you could hear it clear through the pillow. It has sung you to sleep moro than once. But let's see-what in heavens name became of it?-New York Mail. -

M,. averv,s "scottishness." B."


 John Lavery, the eminent artist, Is often taken for Scotsman owing to the fact that he was brought up in Glasgow and first made his mark there. He is, however, an Irishman, born at Belfast. Soon after coming to London the young painter held an exhibition of his works. This was attended by a well known art collector, Scotsman, who bought several pictures. In send- ing MT. Lavery check this gentleman n said he was glad to be the means of helping brother Scot.
 MT. Lavery wrote, thanking him, but pointing out that he was no Scot, but an Irishman.
 "Howeyer," he added, T am suffl- ciently Scottish to have delayed telling you this until had cashed your check. "
 He was afraid his patron might have stepped" the check on learning his true nationality.-London Answers.

SOME EXCERPTS FROM JUDGE
 HAYS RUssELLNiLLE -s E < SPEECH.

"It was apparent to the committee from the beginning, as it was to any casual onlooker, that the so-called contest filed by MT. Brundidge was nothing more than device by which to prevent the State Central Commit tee from declaring 8 nominee"
 Powell Clayton is not forgotten, and should never be forgotten as long as the Anglo Saxon race resents blood and oppression"
 "The. only real service Hal Norwood ever did the Democratic party was to raise, its standard by, getting out; and I, for one, hope he will never be al lowed to return. He, was dead polit- ically, and knew that the Democrats had no confidence in him. It was the most natural thing in the world for him to join the deserters."
 Already this race has done much in shaking rotten apples from the Democratic tree, thereby strengthen ing it in root and branch for bearing greater harvest of good fruit than ever before in it's glorious history"
 "If were forced to vote for eithe, one of the candidates running on the Republican ticket in Arkansas, should certainly cast my vote fol Harry. Myers, as he can at least boast of having been consistent. Otherwise there is no. difference between them. ,
 "When am elected governor of Ar kansassI shall feel most keenly the obligation to you which I have un dertaken, and my only hope and prayer is that I may be able, with your assistance, to faithfully dis charge every duty and obligation that will rest upon me-"

The lack of interest in the guberna- torial race was thrown off Monday when the State Central Committee met in Little Rock to cast up the returns and certify the nominee. The returns show Judge Hays nomination by over 1000 votes, but s. Brundidge is con testing claiming frauds in several counties carried by Hays. After wrang- ling until Wednesday afternoon the committee certified Hays as the nomi ness. and the Brundidge forces are talking of enjoining Secretary of State Hodges from certifying out the nomi nation.

FREAKS OF NATURE
A Tree That Throws Somersaults and .
 Waterfall Reversed.

Waterfall Reversed.
 A tree gone mad and waterfall thai falls up instead of down are among the strange things to be seen in Ha waii. as described by John Burrougha in the Century Magazine:
 Mature in the tropics, left to her self, is harsh, aggressive, savage; looks as though she wanted to hang you with her dangling ropes or impale you on her thorns or engulf you in her ranks of gigantic ferns. Her mood is never as placid and sane as in the north. There is tree in the Hawaiian woods that suggests a tree gone mad It is called the hau tree. It lies down squirms and wriggles all over the ground like wounded snake. It gets up and then takes to earth again. Now 1t wants to be vine; now 1t wants to be tree. It throws somersaults, it makes itself into loops and rings, it rolls, it reaches, it doubles upon itself Altogether it is the craziest vegetable growth I ever saw.
 Ut was near Pali that I saw what had never seen or heard of before-a waterfall reversed, going up instead of down. It suggested Stockton's story of negative gravity. A small brook comes down off the mountain and at tempts to make the leap down a high precipice, but the winds catch it and carry it straight up in the air like t., I. C mere wrath lowering above the bee tling crag. Night and day this goes on. the wind snatching from the noun tains in this summary way the water 1t has brought them"
