Feb. 2. and he reckoned the minimum
value of a book at $4,000. Wood
stock was written in three months,
and this book brought in no less than
$4,000.
The lots to be offered include the
autograph manuscripts of "Quentin
Durward,'' 1.-THE Lord of the Isles
and "The Betrothed,' and there will
no doubt be keen competition for their
possession.
Much interest is taken in the proof
sheets of our leading writer's, and
some of Scott's are to be included in
the Forthcoming sale. These include
the complete sets of '"The Fortunes of
Niger and Quentin Durward," and
portions of 'Ivanhoe'' '"The Legend
of Montrose" and 'The Bride Of
Lammermoor"
scott's proofs were not unduly
dirty differing greatly in this re-
spect from those of Balzac. whose
first proofs often comprised only a
quarter of the finished book. the re-
naming three-quarters being grad
ually added on his series of PROOFS.
1t is unfortunate that we do not
possess any of Shakespeare's MS, but
we know from Ben Jonson that hts
copy was clean. That of Dickens, on
the other hand. was very untidy, be-
ing disfigured by many deletions ad-
ditions and corrections.

THRIFT.

y INCE every man has ta-
- ken opportunity to place
- the blame for the pres
ent prices of every commodity
in common use, there have
been few to come forward with
any share of blame for the in
dividual. The lions share, of
course, rests with the manufac-
turers, distributors and pro-
ducers, but the individual, also,
is partly to blame.
The lesson taught Americans
in the recent war, that of thrift,
had temporary life. During
the emergency period every
one, from the mighty to the
meek, saved and spared.
Thrift was practiced as dill
gently as in the cockney quar-
ter of London. The old eagle
on the dollar truly did scream
in many American homes
where he was pinched to the
limit.
With the end of the war, all
that surplus extravaganza

At RESIDENT WILSON in
I'LL his fight for the League
of Nations, has come to
Oregon today. He has
made a profound impression in
the country of the opposition,
idaho and Washington, and
now he comes again before an
audience which is probably
more friendly than that of
either of the neighboring
states. His hardest test will
come probably with his inva-
sion of California, stronghold
of Senator Hiram johnson, one
of the oppositionists.
Oregon is glad to greet and
welcome the fighting presi-
dent. For the most part the
people of Oregon want to see
the treaty ratified and have
faith that the document as
drawn up by the president and
his colleagues in the conference
will do. Oregon's two senators
have reflected the wishes of
their constituents by lending
their support to the league COW
enant and treaty, although
neither, however, has been a
staunch advocate for adoption.
1t is a privilege for Oregon
to hear the presidents story
first hand and it is this city's
misfortune that he was not to
be routed through here on his
way to Portland. The state of
Oregon will hear, and likely
be convinced, and will lend
whatever aid it can toward
realization of the ideal of
peace. = Esa ES

stored up in the average Amer
lean seemed to be turned loose.
Americans bought freely of
everything they had been ac-
customed to before the war
and more for good measure.
Hash was served less frequent
ly on the American table and
stocks of food and clothing
were taxed heavily by demands
of the public.
Overnight the public forgot
the lesson of thrift and their re-
action on the stocks of avail
able goods naturally forced
prices upward. With money
to spend and a keen demand
for goods, they soon saw that
dealers were quick to follow up
the advantage and demand
prices which have now become
beyond reason. Were the peo-
pie to remember what they
were taught by their govern
ment regarding saving and
thrift, they could alleviate
from their side some of the
troubles which now engulf the
entire populace.

The proposed French flight Is

The reason why the Britishers
should decide 10 fly from America TO
Europe IN because the prevailing
winds blow from west to east.
II 1t were not for that It would be
better to go the other way. The
movement OF the earth on Its axis
is from west to east, and II IL were
possible for an airplane rising In the
air. say at London. TO remain poised
there absolutely without any motion
at all. New York would swing be-
meath 1t In five hours.
But the movement of the air with
the earth is such that no mouonless
poise Is possible. The machine
must fly. The flight eastward Is
easier on account OF the air move
ment. While the Newfoundland.lre-
land route is the best course, 1t
crosses an uncertain weather area.

on the other side of the ocean the

trade wind begins varies greatly, be-
ing sometimes below a mile and
sometimes above eight miles.

TWENTY-FIVE MILES
TO GET MORE TANLAC
]. r. Woodward Says Tanlac
Relieved His Muscular
Rheumatism

Il came all the way from Rath-

twenty-five miles. to get some more
Taniac. and want TO take a supply
home with me. for II has done me
moro good than all tho rest Of tho
medicines have taken put to-

known resident OF Rathdrum. en-.
gnged in the timber business. when
he came In Murwittroyd's Drug store
In Spokane.
For several years" continued Mr..
Woodward. II suffered terribly from
muscular rheumatism. and some
times just thought couldn't stand
the pain any longer. This trouble
seemed TO be worse In my back
than anywhere else, and was so bad
at one time that ] was perfectly
helpless for period OF three
months. After getting up from that
spell. would often lose as much
as three or four weeks from my
work Mt n time. My kidneys were
In bad condition. too. and there were
times when they wouldn't act at ALL
and the pain was something awful
would have to get up all during
the night on account OF my kidneys
not acting well. Then. to add to the
many troubles / had already, my
stomach went back on me. and
everything I ate would disagree with
me. Ny food would sour and cause
gas to form on my stomach so bad
that could hardly get n good
breath. and would feel just like I
was smothcrtng. My nerves finally
went TO pieces. and I got 10 where
I couldn't sleep to do much good
IL began TO read in the papers
about this Tanlac. and got my drug.
gist to get me n bottle from Spo-
kane. as he didn't carry II In stock.
help me like that bottle OF Taniac
did. and went right away and got
the druggist to get me two more
bottles. After using those two bot.
ties. was so much better that !
wanted more Tanlac. OF course.
didn't propose to do without n medi.
cine that had proven to be the very
thing I needed, and one that | knew
would relieve me OF all my suffer.
ing. so I Just got ready and pulled
out for Spokane. where I knew !
could get all the Tanlac ! wanted.
II Is really remarkable the way my
health has improved In every way
since I got hold or this medicine. I
have gained nine pounds already and
my kidneys are getting In fine shape.
My stomach has improved no much
that ! can now eat anything my big
appetite calls for, and I never have
any bad effects from II. ] scarcely
ever have n pain and I know that
few more bottles OF Tanlac will get
every bit OF that rheumatism out OF
my system entirely. My nerves are
as steady as a clock. and I sleep like
n log every night. Everybody who
knows me and knew the condition ]
was in, fully agrees with me that

Clothing.

The clothing of our savage ances-
tors was worn chiefly as a protection
from cold at night, being of more or
less blanket-Hke form, which was
wrapped or swathed around the BODY
loosely fitting, but affording some
what of protection from the more in
tense cold of night. 1t is said that the
skirt is but a survival of the blanket,
the lower end of which has never
been cut down to fit the limbs.
Later in the evolution of the race,
clothing was used as an adornment
as well as a protection, the male using
the arts and wileS of color and form,
which were cleverly blended with
tokens and adornments of the chase
or battle, all designed to impress his
fellow warriors and to attract the OPP
posite sex. Later the female gradu-
the family wealth and apparel for
equally favorable results. The further
clothing is awaited with interest.
There are two principles upon which
clothing should be made: first, to fit
closely enough to protect the body
from injury and cold, and second, to
be loose and porous enough to allow
of good skin ventilation and freedom
of body movement. Clothing that
does not meet these two fundamentals
cannot be said to be hygienic.
No clothing has any warmth in or
of itself-it simply has the power of
keeping in or retaining the warmth of
the body which it covers. This prop
erty depends on the texture and quail
| ity of the cloth or material worn. The
