AMBITO TALKS!
■Xl I ARE YOU SAVED OR DAMNED BY YOUR
|k?VVttV.. illP, There are a number of good ways to measure a
«!-—3(JJ* ' ' man.
One of the best ways is to notice his pleasures.
If the only thing that can interest a man is a decomposed story, he is
a leper. \'-\^:.
If his chief pleasure in life is the financial ruin of a competitor, he is a
yiper.
If his Sabbath sport is the savage joy of gloating over what will happen to
the damned, he is a devil. -* -.
But the man who loves a ball game, a political mass meeting and his work
is worth his weight)
And to be worth your weight is wonderful. There so few of us who are.
The highest form of pleasure is when it manifests itself in work.
Pleasure is strictly a mental state, and men of strong minds can enjoy
whatever they want to.
To speak of a man as a drudge because he does not know how to enjoy
anything but work is to give yourself away. The only men who are drudges
are men who have to work without enjoying it.
A man never really lives until he learns to find pleasure in his work, and
since every honest man must work, why not make it a pleasure?
LOVERS' CORNER
Conducted by
Uncle Donald
"All the world loves a lover."
Just a minute —Since the starting of
this new department by Uncle Donald
there have been from three to four let
ters every week from troubled persons,
most of which have been answered thru
the Lovers' Corner. In the past the
writer has always asked for the names
of the persons who sent in letters, but
we were this week advised by the ed
itor of this new department that he
would 110 longer insist on the real
names of those sending in communica
tions. Just write your query and send
it in, addressed to Uncle Donald, and
he assures us he will do his best in
answering the question. Remember,
once more, try to get your letters in as
early in the week as possible, as he
does not live in this city and they will
have to be forwarded to him.
Well, dear friends, I find three let
ters before me this week, but let's
hope that next week there are more.
Uncle Donald —I have been reading
your Lovers' Corner for several weeks
and as I have a little matter that is
troubling me will ask your advice. I
have a lady friend whom I take out
once or twice a week to dances or
shows and she has never once refused
to go with me, but many times she
goes sleigh riding with other men and
the fact of the matter is I don't be
lieve she cares much for anyone. I
have never said anything to her about
these things for fear it would make her
mad. What would you advise me to
to? C. A. .
My friend you have no right to
monopolize the young lady's time.
Of course, I will agree with you that
it is not very pleasant to go with a
girl who has a different beau every
night, but you are selfish to want
to deprive the young lady of these
pleasures. I don't believe she cares a
fig for you and would advise you to
waste no more time nor money on
her. She probably thinks you are a
good thing to have around when she
wants to go anywhere. Forget her,
C. A.
She wants to know if its wrong to
kiss.
Uncle Donald —Do you think it is
wrong for a man to kiss his girl. I
have never kissed any one outside of
my own family, but my girl friends all
do it. Rosey.
Any wrong in kissing? Well I
should say there is. By all means,
Rosey, never let any young man get
so familiar, and if he attempt such a
thing give him a slap. It is a very
harmful practice and conveys disease
germs of all kinds.
What do you know about this:
Uncel donald—i hay a gurl in the
east who says she want to cum out
here and visit me and we can get
maried. Her muther and father don't
care if we marry but want me to cum
b«ck there and get her. I haven't got
enuf money to go back there and bring
her back, don't you think she ot to
cum ifi send the money to her?
My friend, of course you should go
back and get your future wife, but if
you are too hard up I think it would
be all right to send her the money to
come out on. But my advice to you
is to take a course in night school and
forget the girl for a while.
Frosted Oranges and Lemons on Market
The efforts of California fruit brokers
to put frosted oranges and lemons on
the market in Seattle is being closely
watched hy the health authorities of
this city. Inspectors are on watch
and have been instructed to condemn
and destroy all such fruit found in cars
on the track or on the floors of com
mission, houses. Similar action is be
ing taken by the health authorities in
other cities of the Northwest, and of
fenders who wilfully violate the law are
to be vigorously prosecuted. 'Frosted
oranges and lemonss" says Seattle's
health commissioner, Dr. J. E. Crich
ton, "render people ill and, while such
illness is not always serious, it is of
sufficient menace to warrant drastic
action by health authorities. When
the fruit is frosted the bitter or inju
ries properties of the skin are forced
into the pulp by the natural processes
of expansion."
State May Reclaim Arid Lands
The solution of the problem of re
claiming the arid lands of Washington
may come in the utilization of the
great quantities of clam and other bi
valve shells to be found on the bars
and bottoms of the Puget Sound re
gion. Investigations conducted hy
the Washington State College show
that the bars and bays of Fuget Sound
contain millions of tons of carbonate of
lime, to be obtained by crushing and
purifying these shells. A bill has been
introduced in the legislature providing
for the establishment of a state-owned
plant to mine this lime and deliver it
to the owners of unproductive soil at
cost. Organic acid has soured thou
sands of acres of land in the North
west, where the rainfall is heavy. This
lime will provide an economical
method for overcoming the acid for
mations in the soil. It is estimated
that it will cost not more than $1.50
per ton to produce this lime.
Legislation Need on Kelp Beds
Two bills which are of considerable
interest to farmers of the state are be
fore the legislature. One which inter
ests Eastern Washington farmers pro
vides for the appropriation of $40,000
to carry out the Quincy irrigation pro
ject by which the waters of Lake We
natchee are to be poured over the
Quincy flats and a half million acres
of land irrigated. It is asked that the
state get behind the bond issue for
this project. For the purposeof clear
ing logged-ofl lands a $20,000 bond
issue is asked for the benefit of those
living on the west side of the state.
What greater gift or blessing could
one give than health and happiness ?
To your unhealthy friends give Hol
lister's Rocky Mountain Tea, nature's
greatest tonic remedy. Drives out
disease, brings back health and happi
ness. You'll be surprised the good
twill do. City Drug Store.

Results From Woman Suffrage
That the effect of woman suffrage
on state legislation has been tremen
dous is seen from the nature of the
bills introduced before both houses
this session, most of which are along
sociological lines that women are most
interested in. Daring the first month
of the session there were introduced
bills providing for a minimum wage
for women, a teachers' pension act,
three bills amending the present stat
ute relative to statutory crimes, a "lazy
husband act," a mothers' pension bill,
a bill to establish vocational schools in
the state, a measure for the support of
destitute women, the "lowa Abate
ment Law," child labor law, a bill
providing for female employes to rest
at certain hours when they have to
work standing on their feet, a bill call
ing for court jurisdiction over "baby
farms," and other measures tending to
protect the workingman.
Government Enlists Work of Botanists
The United States government has
enlisted the services of two members
of the University of Washington fac
ulty, Dr. T. C. Frye and George B.
Rigg, to head a party of botanists to
make a survey of the kelp beds of
Alaskan waters during the coming
summer. The survey is under the
direction of the bureau of soils of the
government. Since Germany has so
far had practically the monopoly of
potash supply of the world, the finding
of these extensive kelp beds in the
north has aroused the government to
make these investigations in the hope
that a domestic supply will be avail
able.
Hunters Must Wear Red Coats
A bill which provided that the state's
profit on grain sacks shall be limited
to 12 */i per cent above the estimated
cost has been put through the senate,
which has also passed a bill providing
that hunters in the woods shall wear
red coats and making a person who
shall shoot without looking to see what
he is shooting guilty of assault. An
other bill which has passed the senate
provides for the consolidation of small
diking districts; introduced by Senator
Hammer. The teachers' retirement
fund bill has been reported favorably
by the committee of both houses.
Morse is Declared Well
Charles W. Morse, who was par
doned from the Atlanta federal prison
by President Taft, is physically fit to
remain in business indefinitely, ac
cording to Dr. Marchiaiava, physician
to Pope Pius X.
Doctor Marchiafava came from Rome
at the request of Mr. Morse, and made
a thorough examination of the finan
cier. He pronounced him sound and
entirely well, and said that he attri
buted Mr. Morse's recovery to his will
power, which, the physicians said, was
gigantic.
Alaska Will Have Big Year
An indicatton that Alaska is rapidly
coming to be regarded as a country
which is accessible and attractive in
the winter as well as at other times of
the year is the fact that when the S. S.
Mariposa, of the Alaska Steamship Co.,
sailed last week for Southwestern
Alaska, she carried 140 passengers,
the largest number that has ever been
known to go north at this time of the
pear. It is further evident that Alaska
will have the biggest year in her his
tory.

The Blewett Road
There is a prospect for the expen
diture of $3000 on the improvement
of the Blewett pass road provided the
commissioners of Chelan and Kittitas
county each endorse the office of
Chief Forester Sylvester to apportion
$1000 of the Forestry road to the Blew
ett hill improvement. The chief for
ester suggests that each county con
tribute an equal amount and it is held
that while this will do little or nothing
toward cutting out the bad grades, it
will put the road in very passable
shape, and furnish the foundation for a
better highway between the valleys of
the Wenatchee and Yakima. —Cle El

California Woman Seriously Alarmed
"A short time ago I contracted a severe
cold which settled on my lungs and caused
me a great deal of annoyance. I would have
bad coughing spells and my lungs were so
sore and inflamed I began to be seriously
alarmed. A friend recommended Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy, saying she had used
it for years. I bought a bottle and it re
lieved my cough the first night, and in a
week I was rid of the cold and soreness of
my lungs," writes Miss Marie Gerber, Saw
lelle, Cal. For sale by all dealers.—Adver
