appearance of the decorations and
the holiday atmosphere of the place.
1t was suggested that he see the 9TH
er Oregon exhibits, then make a
comparison with the exhibits and
state buildings in competition, and
give his final impression. Governor
Wthycombe did this and then said:
II can only add emphasis to what |
said this morning. am immensely
pleased with the Oregon showing
throughout, and | have seen enough
and heard enough today to make me
very proud of Oregon at the Exposi-
tion. The resources of the state are
shown up splendidly, and l believe
we will reap a splendid reward" His
words were pleasing to those here
concerned with Oregon's efforts to
attract attention and doubtless they
will prove pleasant assurance to
those in Oregon, ever anxious that the
state shall be kept at the forefront,
By-the-way, Governor Withycombe
made real hit when he came to the
Exposition as a private citizen and
on Benson day sat in the shadow that
Oregon's most notable" citizen
should have all the glory. This,
with his readiness, genialty and ap-
parent ability, is still the subject Of
pleasant comment among men Of af-
fairs, and there is widespread i'm
preston here that Oregon has Gov
ernor as great as Oregon's showing
at the P. P. I. e.
Archbishop Christie, Of Portland,
was in the Oregon building Sunday.
II heard some Portlander express
doubt about the Oregon building"
said the bishop, "but think he must
have been sick. This is beautiful,
beautiful, inside and out. I think 1t
wonderful-and did you ever see
such lovely wood as that myrtlewood
furniture?"
T. X. Churchill, born In Oregon in
1851, but away from home near Har-
risburg since 1880 said "This Is a
mighty fine showing. I have been
living in Los Angeles a long time,
but l have interests III Montana, and
I am certain that either state can
beat California on everything but
climate. There is no place where
they can grow more or better stuff
on an acre than they can in Oregon,
and this exhibit building is fine,
mighty fine."

TEST THAT NEVER FAILED
Mine Foreman Had Particular Reason
for Patronizing sawyer's Place
on His Vacation"

Among the old miners of Siskiyco
county a man can get worse whisky
at Sawyer's bar than in any other
place on earth. This Is the belief OF
the gold-diggers OF that section, and
that faith is accepted as orthodox, says
the San Francisco Call.
Regularly every Christmas Billy x,
foreman of the Oro Fino mine, takes
his layoff down at Sawyer's. Once
the superintendent asked him why he
always selected that place for his va
cation.
Il want to have one yearly drunk,
said Billy, "and l want to know just
when am drunk, SO that may enjoy
the sensation"
well. can't you enjoy the sensation
in any other portion of the country OF

intendent.
No. When I'm drinking Sawyer'i

then i know I'm drunk"

COAL MINING IS SAFER

OF STATE MINE INSPECTOR.

penver.-The number of lives lost
in Colorado coal mines decreased in
1914 to per 1000 employees from
Sc per 1000 employees in 1913, accord
ing to the annual report of James
Dalrymple, state coal mine inspector
There were rs killed and S56 in
jured, giving an average of 1856 men
injured per 1000 employees. The num-
Der of men employed in the mines
was 1886 OF the accidents II were
underground and on the surface.
These accidents made 40 women wild
ows and 92 children fatherless. Thir-
ty-five of the men killed were single.
Over half of the fatal accidents
3S-were caused by falls of rock and
coal. Eighteen were caused by mine
cars and motors, by electricity, 8
by electric mining machinery and IL
by other causes.
The amount of coal mined COM
pared with that mined during 1913
showed decrease of 1,06l SIG tons.
The total production was S,201 ,423
tons. Among the causes ascribed for
the decrease are the European war,
the Mexican war. the coal strike and
the exceedingly mild fall and winter.
Four mines were closed because OF
unsafe and unsanitary conditions. In
prosecutions for violations of the law
five miners were found guilty and five
operators. There were 53S non-fatal
accidents reported to the department.
The tons of coal produced per fatal
accident increased from S4,263 in 1913
to 109,S52 in 1914.
Generally speaking" Mr.. Dalrymple
says, the conditions of the mines
have very much improved. This is es-
pecially true of Boulder and Weld
counties, where great improvements
have been made, especially from a
sanitary standpoint"
Routt county showed the largest in
crease of production-S23.312 tons
producing altogether 655,S7S tons.

BE KINDER TO YOURSELF
Women Are Often Victims Of Nervous
ness Because They Don't Know
How to Relax.

One Of the important things to know
In life, especially if you are woman,
is how to let yourself alone, writes
Mary Carolyn Davies in the Mothers
Magazine. The ability to relax. the
art of being judiciously lazy, the tact
to let herself alone has saved many
woman from nervous breakdown.
We all know the housewife who nags
herself into such a state of conscien-
t1ousness that she cannot rest. If she
lies down she is continually worrying
herself with thoughts of the work that
she Is neglecting.
Much of the blame for this state of
'aHalrs lies at the doors of the moth
ers. The mistake is in their training
OF their children, especially their
daughters. They are taught from ear
nest infancy to be kind to others. to
bear with them, to forgive them, to
help them; but from birth to death no
one ever tells them to be kind, also.
to themselves.
Ihe woman who nags herself can
make herself more miserable than any
one else possibly could. She can make
her life more of nightmare than any
misfortune could possibly make it, II
such women could learn to be kinder
to themselves there is no doubt that
their own lives would be heightened;
and not only that, but the lives of
those with whom they come in close
contact would be made far more pleas
