THEIR GOOD EXCUSE

Yes. the first twenty times you hear it. After two dozen repet1lons my hair has ceased to stand on end at the critical moments Well, anyway, I like them. dear. If asking the Deolittles to dinner will satisfy a soul craving of i yours, ask them by all means. Never mind me-"
 Don't be ridiculous. Tom. You Know I'm not crazy over them, but as long as we have to have some one I think we may well have them"
 "Oh, very we'll" replied Allen. When he left the house few min utes later he dropped note of invita- ton into the nearest post box and grinned.
 Three days later he asked his wife: Are the Doolittles coming?"
 Yes, Mrs. Doolittle telephoned an enthusiastic acceptance She has hao some of her Paris photographs en- larged and she's going to bring them over to show us.'
 Has Doolittle had any photographs taken of his moose story?"
 Tom, you ought to be ashamed
 T am, my dear; but I'd rather be ashamed than hear that story again. By the way. did you remember to send your regrets to Mrs. Matheson ?'
 Wei, Wei nt it's awfully strange, Tom, ard I can't understand it at all- were not invited Dy the MdlHeSoHS-
 Not invited! And the sacrifice on the Doolittle altar is all for notn1ng?"
 But I can't see why they didn't in Vite us." persisted Mrs. Allen.
 The night of the party. after the Doolittles had taken leave, Mrs. Allen gazed dolefully from her front win dows Just look how gay it is over there, Tom!" she said After our dull evening the lights and laughter are really alluring. It appears to be an unusually lively affair. I honestly cannot see why we weren't asked.
 We weren't that's the main thing tc be thankful for.
 I'm not bit thankful. Pm greatly disappointed
 Why, I thought you never wanted to go there again.
 fI didn't. but I don't like to be left out and you know yourself. Tom, the Dooittles are the worst bores among our acquaintances. I don't see why you insisted on having them.
 tEWhy, my dear. I never@
 Now don't deny it. Tom. You said for me to have them by all means. Those were your exact words. Look, the hey've begun to dance over there. Oh, dear. I haven't danced for an age!"-Chicago News.

The sixty third congress. a thor oughly democratic bedy, is on its way, with the distinction of being the first under democratic control in all de- partments since the first half of the second Cleveland administration. The house has a large majority for the democratic party while the senate's majority over both tlle republicans and the two progressives gives it fair leeway on matters where there is no friction within their own lines. This strength places the responsibility upon the democrats for whatever Legislation is enacted They are in control and the blame or the credit go hand in hand herewith
 For the present it is the tariff which alone holds the consideration of the body and as the president declares it is necessary for early and prompt ac- tion that the business interests of the country may not be kept too long in suspense It is question which will not be decided in a week or month. Most important principles are concerned and there deserves to be full, fair and free consideration of facts and the proposed changes by schedule before vote thereon is at tempted, even though there is a dem ocratic control. There must be an honest consideration of the welfare of the country as much as the party pledge. This is going to keep the ses- sion well occupied for even among the democrats there is a difference of opinion on the tariff This. therefore promises to occupy attention for the most of the opening session, but cur rencv reform, the Philippines. Panama canal and Alaska are important mat ters upon which early action will be demanded

 'F1shing!" Mrs. Allen gave her husband a whitening glance. When you feel impelled to go fishing. Tom, please leave me at home. I've had enough of leaky boats, wet feet and hlistering sunburn.'

 m not prepared to go away from home My clothes aren't in order and I have a dressmaker coming next week. I think we'd better just invite some people to dinner the evening of the card party. Suppose we ask the Doolittles
 Do you think" inquired Allen, that an evening with the Doolfttles will be any more enlivening than a party at the Mathesons? Have I got to listen for three or four hours to Doolitfle's maundering talk about his one hunting expedition to the Maine W oods and Mrs. Doolittles bromidic "reminiscences of her single trip to Paris? Why the Doolittle's my dear?''

solution of the home devastating liquor question, in all the laws which affect the home, can anyone say the movement for women's enfranchise- ment is a menace to the home? What after all is the world itself but our home, in which we one family dwell? Is not the world our God given home just as the house is our man. made home? Is not the woman'S place in the larger home as well as the mans? Will not the public per fCrmance of duties unite the sexes in- stead of parting them, and will not the presence of women working side by side with men bring an influence of purityA refinement and spirituality into all the activities into which men have entered?
 The home is not threatened because women are trying to make the world a better place by direct participation in the making of the laws which protect il, for the happiness of the home de- bends upon the goodness of its mem bers," and upon that alone.

VALUABLE RECLAMATION.

Not only are the trade schools of great importance as conducted by the state for bettering the advantages of the young people after they complete their grammar school course, but they are also most profitable as conducted in connection with reforn1atory work and in penal institutions. Many are the instances of improvement which can be traced to just such sources. accomplishing the entire change of character because of the opportunity which has been provided for going out into the world and earning an honest living.
 Concerning the good work of this method of helping mankind. especially those who started in the wrong direc- ton the Newark News says: Trade schools at the states reformatory in stitutions at Railway and Jamesburg go to show how far and how fast the recognition of the value of useful em- ployment as a character-builder Is spreading. It is sometimes a source for wonder how many boys-and girls, too-fal into lines of crime simply and solely because they did not know how to do anything well. The reform seems to be a modern application of the old saw about the devil and idle hands. And we can think of no greater cruelty and temptation than turning a human being loose from an institution without the ability to earn a living except by the very practices that brought him under the states care in the first place."
 Such reclamation service is of vital importance to every community and there is no way of estimating the great value of it, though it deserves the greatest encoura cement and aid.

ANOTHER PIONEER PASSES.

Dewitt Clinton Budd was born near
Ypsilanti, Michigan in September, 1881.
He died at Salem, Oregon, November 3,
1913. In early childhood, he moved
with his parent to Illinois, where he
grew TO manhood.
Two sisters had crossed the plains by
OK team, to Oregon in 1s47, where he
followed in 1852.
When the mining excitement in south
ern Oregon was on, he, with many 9th.
er adventurous young men from the
Willamette valley, took up the march
for the gold fields. Later he returned
to tho Willamette valley and after a
temporary residence in different local
tiles for several years, he finally settled
near the Willamette river, about six
miles southwest of Salem, where he re.
mained until few years ago, when fail
ing health compelled him to remove to
the city.
He was a true child Of nature. He
loved the forests, the hills and the
stream, and his keenest regret on leav
ing his home was in parting company
with these. He was also a lover Of
children, many niece and nephew, il
spite Of the years that have silvereG
their own locks, can testify.
He leaves brother, George, in Iii
nois, and two sisters, Mrs Sarah A
Joryr and Mrs. Mary Jory, both Of sa
lem, Oregon.
