county in the selection of the judges.
Hon. Mason Irwin is one. We learn
ed to admire him in Seattle. The
governor sends him here occasional
ly. He is so just and fair-he is well
read and up to date on the law, and
rs a man, as lovable as the late Chief
Justice Dunbar. Do you know what
is the matter with Judge Irwin? Well,
when we were born, we were all
good, but nearly all Of us went on
bad, but Judge Irwin. like Judge Dun
bar. just simply stayed good.
Judge Sheeks is his side partner.
Before he became Judge we all
called him Ben Sheeks. can not
speak Of him from personal knowl.
edge for we do not enjoy an acquaint.
ance. but we understand he is one Of
the best in the state. We heard him
rule on number Of qeustions relat-
ing to the introduction of evidence.
He knows Greenleaf and what the
supreme court says generally.
Way Of the rranssressor.
Now we went to Montesano-a
stranger to everybody except Judge
Irwin. We tried to say the right
thing about judges, court house, and
everything we commented upon. but
there Is one thing that the builders
Of that fine temple of justice ought
to explain.
Over the door leading to the cham
bers of Judge Irwin is painted in large
letters the word "Transgression.'
Now. you can't make us believe
Judge Irwin is transgressor or would
transgress anything. The lawyers over
there think of the Judge the same
as we do. Tell us, somebody. why is
the word transeression written over
that door?
The court house is full Of artistic
fresco work, mottos, ETC., and we have
related the only bad break in the whole
structure.
The tide in the Chehalis river runs
up as far as Montesano. with . depth
Of fourteen feet Of water. The gov
eminent has improved the entrance
and large vessels come In, many Of
which we saw. On the banks Of the
river are q great number Of saw and
single mills. and these are starting up
again.

are already being planned and made.
Most Of the other feminine residents
are going to have some new summer
dresses, too. We would like at this
time to remind you that our stocks
Of Silks and Dainty Cotton Fabrics In
either white or colors. are kept up
full and prices are lower than usual.
Business has been better with US
this Spring than ever before and we
believe the reason is that we give you
better goods for the money than any
one else in this part of the state. We
expect to move next month or possibly
not. until, July into the Electric Build
ing close to our present location. This
will give US more room and enable us
to serve you better, but We can not
get in there before the Fall trade
starts so we will be right in the old
stand until nearly August first.
Special efforts are being made to
gradually reduce all stocks before NOV
ing time and on almost anything you
want to buy you'll save money by trad
ing with US. especially during the com.
ing two months.
Special bargains in Shoes for ladies,
children. boys and girls.
Cleanup prices on Spring Suits and
Coats are already being made and you
will gain nothing by waiting any long
o. for Of course the best ones go first
Best stock Of Dresses in town to
choose from and prices are so reason
able that you can hardly afford to
have yours made.
See them today II you can.

Why Can't We See in the
Dark?

we can see nothing. II requires light
waves to produce the reflections OF OBJ
jects 10 our eyes Without light our
eyes and their delicate organs are use
less You can not see yourself IN a
mirror when the quicksilver which was
once en- the back OF the glass has been
removed, because there is then nothing
to reflect the light We can only see
things when there is light enough about
to reflect things TO our eyes. When II
is dark there is no light and that IS the
reason we can not see anything III the
dark.

We Co.. see In the dark because
there is no light to see ny. To under
stand this we must first understand
that when we see thing. as we gen
orally say. we do not actually see the
thing itself. but only the light coming
from it. But we have become so used
TO saying that we see the thing itself,
that for all practical purposes we can
accept that as true, altho it is not sci
entiically exact. Scientifically speak
ing, we see that part of the sunlight or
other light which is shining upon II,
which the object is able 10 reflect.
II there were no air about US we
could not hear any sounds. no matter
how much disturbance people or
things created, because il requires air
TO cause the sound waves which pro-
