Might be a Good Plan

To the married man who can.
not get along without his drinks
the following is suggested as q
solution of the bondage of his
habit: First, start a saloon in
your house. Second. be the only
customer. You will have no
license TO pay. Give your wife
81 TO buy "A gallon of whiskey,
and remember there are sixty
nine drinks in one gallon.
Third, buy your drinks from no
one but your wife: by the time
the first gallon is gone she will
have %.90 TO put in the bank
and 81 TO start business again.
Fourth, should you live ten
years longer and continue 10 buy
booze from her, and then die
with snakes in your boots. she
will have money to bury you de-
Gently educate your children, buy
a house and lot, marry n decent
man. and quit thinking about
you. Lend a Hand.

The remark is often heard,
IF it isn't true why are they
not sued for libel" when a dis.
paraging statement is made con-
cerning any individual by a
street speaker or in a yellow
newspaper. The answer is
simple. In cases of libel, suit
is Instituted for the purposes of
collecting damages. If the one
making the libelous remarks is
worth nothing, no recovery can
be made. Only judgment that
is absolutely worthless can be
secured. Again, owing to our
peculiar libel laws, if the speaker
or editor swears that he believes
to be true the statements he has
made, there is nothing to libel
suit in this state. That is why
speakers can go to almost any
length in heaping calumny upon
an individual, and the one abused
practically has no redress. The
libel laws of Oregon are entirely
too lax.

The Longest Sermon

The longest sermon on record
was preached by Rev. Isaac Bar
row, q Puritan preacher of the
seventeenth century. who once
delivered a sermon in Westminis-
ter Abbey. lasting three hours
and a half; and the shortest
sermon ever preached was per-
haps the sermon which Doctor
Whewell was fond of repeating
from the text, MAN is born
unto trouble as the sparks fly
upward. " The sermon occupied
barely a minute In delivery, the
following being a verbatim re-
port:
IL shall divide the discourse
into three heads: Mans in
gress into the world; his pro-
gress through the world; his
egress out of the world. First
ly, his ingress into the world is
naked and bare.
Secondly. his progress through
the world is trouble and care.
Thirdly, his egress out of the
world is nobody knows whore.
