James Buchanan told the story of how
Gen. Jackson put him in his place" at
least hundred times.
Mr.. Buchanan came back from Russia
in 1884, ending the special mission to
which President Jackson had appointed
him in 1882. He Immediately was elect
ed to the United States Senate by the
Pennsylvania Legislature to fill the un-
expired term of William wilkins, who
resigned to succeed Buchanan in the
Russian mission.
At Washington he encountered beau-
tiful Englishwoman whom he had met
in London. She had come to America
to see the sights and her heart ached
to crown her tour with a grand event.
She wished, in short, to be presented to
that magnificent hero, Gen. Andrew
jackson, the President of the United
States, "Old Hickory" himself.
Nothing could be easier" said Mr.
Buchanan, pleasantly conscious Of the
fact that he could open the doors Of the
White House to the fair lady. They
1ourneyed to the Executive Mansion.
There the Senator left the English

about 5000, and very few drugs had
been purchased, at that. Candy,
smokes, toilet accessories were the large
items.
AS Nancy was bordering the whole
subject her eye. lighted on the club
calendar. That very afternoon there
was to be a lecture on "Budgettng."
Was she there? She was.
The speaker gave the same advice as
Nancy's note books, but added some
pertinent helps For instance, q be-
ginner in budgeting should not try to
keep too itemized an account. She
should remember that hit-and-miss
spending is the wastefuI kind, because
there is so little to show for the money
at the end Of the month. And she
stressed the fun of keeping a budget
when one beat it--beat the figures
which had been set as the amount
necessary for food. or shelter. clothing,
savings, operating expenses or higher

BEAUTY CHATS

One thing which viii dishgure the
arms is 3 quantity Of long. dark hair.
Fortunately, this is not q very serious
trouble; you can get rid Of the hairs
three different ways. One way is to rub
the arms with a wad of cotton soaked
in q mixture of one-half peroxide and
one-haf ordinary water. This should
be put on after the arms have been
washed with ordinary soap and water.
Another way Is to rub over the arms
occasionally with q piece of pumice
stone moistened with warm water. This
gradually wears away the finer hairs
that grow on the arms. If the skin
seems Q little sore afterward the skin
can be rubbed with cold cream or q
glycertn and rose-water solution.
The hair on the arms can also be
removed with depilatory paste or with
wax. There are several varieties on the
market. Do not buy anything cheap,

and be very careful to follow the direc-
tons. Otherwise you win irritate the
skin. The depilatory simply dissolves
the hair and the wax pulls IL cut;
whichever you use, the hairs win grow
in again. There Is q general theory
that they will grow in coarser, but
have not found this to be true. There
also Is theory that shaving the hair
on the arms and legs brings In q new.
coarser growth. Neither Is this true.
But it Is not advisable to shave the
arms, except the armpits, for when the
hair begins to grow the ends are stubby
and the HAIR looks thicker than 1t Is.
II the arms have coarse pores give
them a thorough scrubbing with hot
water, soap and q stiff flesh brush. This
treatment every day win clear the skin
and make the texture Of the arms az
fine as you could wish. Rose water,
glycerin and lemon Juice make an ex-

IS ONLY BIDDER AT SALE;
LAND BOUGHT BY TAYLOR,
FIXTURES BY GRESS

M. F. O'Brien was the only bidder
on the Schuster store building in
White Bluffs, sold at public auction
in Prosser last Saturday forenoon,
and his bid of one dollar was accepted.
In taking title, however, Mr.. O'Brien
had to assume the liens against the
property, including mortgage held by
himself which, with unpaid interest
and back taxes totaled around $3.50.
Twelve acres of land, in two parcels,
located near the river, which were sold
at the same time were purchased by
F. E. Taylor, his bid and the unpaid
taxes which he assumed amount to
about $500.
The sale of the store and meat mar
ket fixtures was held in the building
in White Bluffs Monday forenoon.
These were bid in by George Gress Of
Richland, a brother-in-law of Mrs.
Schuster, for $500. The unpaid store
accounts were sold to the First Bank
of White Bluffs
H. j. Upton, who has conducted the
store and meat market in the build
ing for the past year, is making ar
rangements with Mr.. O'Brien for a
lease and will continue to operate the
business in the same location. He is
negotiating with Mr.. Gress for the
fixtures he will need, but in the event
he is unable to make satisfactory
deal says he has made arrangements
to buy these elsewhere.

Fruit Warehouse In
Hanford Destroyed by Fire

The old Wenatchee Valley Fruit Elk
change warehouse in Hanford owned
by group Of growers in the vicinity
of Hanford and leased to the Ameri-
can Fruit Growers was destroyed by
fire Monday evening. The cause of the
fire is unknown. The building was
valued at about $1,000 and was par
TALLY covered by insurance. A pile of
drift fire wood, estimated at about 40
cords, owned by Lyman Moulster and
piled near the warehouse, also burned.

Monday evening have not decided yet
whether they will rebuild.

Old, New and Present
Day Modes of Travel

BY a rather odd coincident, White
Bluffs residents were treated to view
of the past, present and future modes
of travel last Friday forenoon. While
a number of automobiles were lined
up along the curb, an old-fashioned
covered wagon drawn by team of
horses drove down Federal Avenue at
the very moment that a large airplane
was coming down on the landing
field. The plane was one of the Ford
tri-motor, 12-passenger types, owned
by Manner of Spokane. The ship has
been used on the Spokane-Seattle run
and stopped here temporarily on its
way to Pasco.

White Bluffs Wins in
Heat, Score IA to 8

Proving themselves better tropical
performers than their opponents, the
White Bluffs ball club literally ran
away with the game at Finley last
Sunday by a score of IA to 3. No Of
; ficial announcement of the temperature
was made but 1t must have been ITO in
the shade-and there wasn't any
shade
Joe Wagner pitched the entire
game for White Bluffs and held the
opposition in check all the way, being
particularly strong in the pinches.
Finley used three pitchers in an eff
fort to stem the tide, but all three
of them proved ineffective in stopping
the parade of White Bluffs base
runners.
The White Bluffs club presented
lineup of youngsters with Joe Wag-
ner in the box, Montgomery behind
the bat, Walker on first, Barnes on
second, Paschen at short, Emil Wagner
at third and Remlinger, Heath and
Upton in the outfield. This club
clicked nicely and after the first in
ming or two there was little doubt
about the outcome except the possible
size of the score.
Hanford won over Benton City at
Hanford by score of to 2. Zip
Cords was in the box for Hanford,
while Howard did that chore for Ben
ton City. 1t was close contest up to
the eighth, with Hanford leading,
to 2. During the last two innings Han
ford came through with enough runs
to cinch the contest.
Next Sunday White Bluffs goes to
Benton City to play two either five
header is necessary to make up for
the game postponed here few weeks

After next Sunday White Bluffs has
two more games to complete the

Wheat Country is
Badly in Need of Rain

Those who have travelled through
the wheat country over on the east
side of the Columbia lately, say it is
beginning to look bad. There has been
no rain in the last six weeks and the
almost constant wind has dried out
most of the moisture that was in the
ground in the spring. 1t is looking
particularly bad between Lind and
Cheney. The wheat has begun to turn
brown and yellow without heading
out. The Othello- Warden country,
where the soil is more shallow and
Yields generally smaller, is looking
better than in the territory further
east.
A peculiar thing about the wind this
spring is that it has been blowing gen
orally from the north and east while.
the prevailing winds ordinarily are
from the west and southwest. Another
popularity about the wind this year
is that it blows generally during the
afternoon and during the night while
in the forenoons the air is compar-
atively quiet.

Spokane counties, embracing large

agreed upon: Hay hands, $1.50; grain

regretting that he had not worn his

his ideas of comfort underwent as

shirt and various other articles long
before he reached White Bluffs.

First Home Grown Spuds
On Local Market

The first locally grown new pota-
toes on the market were brought to
town Tuesday by George Bradshaw.
They were fair size for this early in
the season but will grow a lot more

vested, about ten days hence, Mr..
Bradshaw said. They are of the Irish
Cobbler variety and Mr.. Bradshaw has
