Inflammation, pain, swelling and redness, later pus or matter forms, breaks or is opened, the plug comes out and the pore is once more free. . . , There ate thousands of these pores In the face alone, any one of which is liable to become clogged by neglect or disease.

LITTLE TRESPASSER; A Wee Bird's ?5 First Experience Behind Closed Doors. Oaee Throosh Mj Study Window, He i Tilm to Find she Exit At Hoot ob a Bookcase gonad by tho . Parent-Bird-Breakfast. Sometime the weather; being pleasant, although it was as yet but little after six o'clock in the morn ing, I was working with one of the windows of my .room open, says M. Ciinisset-Carnot, in Popular, Science Monthly. All at once I heard a sound of wings, and per ceived a redthroat, its bill still bor dered with the yellow characteristic of Infancy, fluttering frightened across the room. It had probably, in its first attempt at flight, met a cat" or a squirrel, and had taken refuge with me under the stress of a panic-striokenj terror. It was so frightened that, In trying to get out. it did not see the! open window, and beat dbstinately against the glass of those which were shut. I thought it best not to interfere," lest I might frighten- It still i more; hoping, be sides, that it would be more per spicacious vhen it had recovered its self-possession, j It soon desisted from its attempts and perched Itself on a corner of -my bookcase. I watched it, with the corners of my eyes without y moving; I observed that Its respiration gradually be came more : regular, and its expres sion resumed its calm. It com pletely recovered Itself In a few mo ments, but, Instead of trying to escape, it stayed where it was, utter ing frequent light cries. In response to these calls, another redthroat came in, adult and experienced, evi dently the father, of our frightened one. He flew rapidly round in my room, like one examining the re sources and means of the country: then, having beaten his wings for a few seconds before his offspring to encourage him to follow him, I fan cied, he went out alone with a jerk of his wings, without missing the window. Here, I thought' is father who takes things philosophic ally; sure that his chick will be in a S ' a. . no aanger, ne plants it tbere and goes back to his business. ! But judged too hastily. la less than minute the father came back, bring lag a caterpillar In bis bill; he gave it to the little one, then went out. returned, and made twenty journeys for' provisions, bringing in all sorts of Insects, to the great satisfaction of the young one, which, became quite contented and made itself well at home, erecting its feathers, smoothing them, working itself into ball and . peemnff. But its skil did not correspond with its appetite: Jt dropped the insects on my books, not to my pleasure: then there came a spider of .respectable size. when. having a hdrror: of spiders as un reasonable as unconauerable. and disliking the litter left by ihe little bird on my books, I thought.it was time to give these creatures to un derstand that their familiarity was a little In excess of the limits. I opened all the windows, and, shak ing my handkerchief, sent them to continue their feast in the woods. The Question; of Chaperons. ' In this work-a-day world, if wom en must be wasre-earners and bread-winners, so far as they are concerned chaperons are Impossible alike in England, and America. ' In most factories, workshops and sales rooms, in America at least, the women are as carefully guarded against insulting approaches or de grading entanglements as ! they wouidbe in! their own therefore, there is no r homes. So, reason -in the world why in America we should. so far as these girls are concerned, bother ourselves as to whether they have chaperons or not. If there Is danger to this class of crirls In Eng land because they cannot have chap- kg thricon.iuiirothe mother country at heart to study the methods almost universally In use in the United States, and, to the extent of adopting these methods, Americanize the j working girls of England. But i so far . as the wealthy classes, ' are concerned, either in Great Britain or the 'Tfnlt ed States, there is ' no essential dif ference, nor likely soon to be atay, The presence of ' older women lh everv comnanv adds' to the dkrnitv and variety quite as much as to the decorum and propriety. Harpers Bazar. . i American Dialects. Americans often wonder at the narked difference in dialect between natives of England living only a day's ride from : each other. ! But , the same thing is noticeable In this country In places not any farther apart.' A gentleman who resides in Delaware county,' this state, and who formerly resided in Queens Co., N. Y., about one) hundred and ten miles away, has a list of twenty-two words in common; use In Delaware county unknown or never used by natives of Queens. Here are some of the words in the list: "Coal oil" for kerosene, "fall top", for covered buggy, "kidding" for; teasing, "a good bit"' for a good deal, "repealer'! for repeal bill, "porch" for piazza, etc In upper -Vermont a Delaware county native would find many words that he never heard before and probably that he would never care to hear again.' Philadelphia Record. C.UNGED. Chilly Bank President I Quickly Warmed Up. A well-known contractor walked into a bank in this city the other day to cash a check for forty dol- ars. The paying teller looked at the check a few minutes, then count ed out four hundred dollars and handed it to the contractor, who, although he noticed the error, said not a word, but rolled up the bills and wadded them down into his pocket. ' This happened in the morn ing, and about two o'clock the same afternoon, before the officials of the bank had an opportunity to discover the error; the contractor walked into the office of the president of the bank. "Is this bank responsible for the errors of its clerks?" he asked the president. If it can be proved that any of our clerks have erred," replied the president, in a very chilly manner, "oniu uia&e iu currecuon. ""Well, nobody saw this error :u . l ii - . made but . myself, t continued the contractor, "and my word ought to be sufficient proof, I think." I am sorry, sjr, said the bank president, "but we shall have to have additional proof. "We require this in order to protect ourselves"; that is all." "Very well, sir," replied the con tractor, rlslriJ? to leave. "I am sorry I cannot furnish what you de mand. The error T referred to was the payment of four hundred dollars for a check that called for only forty dollars; but, as no one saw me re ceive the extra three hundred and sixty dollars, ,1 supppse you will not want to correct the mistake. Good day, sir." ; "Hold on! Come back!" thouted the bank president, who by this time was very wideawake to the abyss to which he had been led. The matter was soon adjusted sat isfactorily aad now when any person report 3 an error at that bank the first question is: "In whose favor?" Washington Post. GOLD UNDER A CATARACT. The Precious Metal Curiously Ob tained from an Unknown Depth. ' Snoqualmie falls, in the state of Washington, has developedanat tractlon not down on the guide books. The story is vouched for by reputable' men working . on that stream. A big piece of quartz bowlder, rich in the precious metal, has been se cured from an unknown depth di rectly underneath the hiige fall of water, and the most wonderful part of the story is the. manner in which this sparkling and precious stone was secured from a place almost un approachable. Running logs over the two hun dred and sixty-five foot fall has been a custom for many years past, and there is no prettier sight in the world than to see the giant sticks shoot out into space and then dropr head on, into the roaring water be low. .-I 1 ... During the shooting of the logs one particular log went over re cently, and shot straight downward and was soon lost in the pool below. After it had risen to the surface-and floated down stream, it was seen to have a rock embedded in one end, which, upon examination, was found to be quartz rich in gold. The only explanation is that the log in the mad plunge into the pool under the falls came in contact with some ledge of gold with force enough to embed the piece found in the firm wood. Seattle Telegraph. COEDUCATION AT CORNELL. Girl Students Show Their Literary and Scientific Training. At the twenty-fifth anniversary of Cornell university Dr. Taylor said, in speaking of the higher education of women, that education was a unit, and that we must stop talking about men's and women's education as sep arate things. One of the oldest pro fessors yi the university, speaking of a book of original scientific arti cles sent to him by his former pupils, . pronounced an article "written by a woman student as so superior, accu rate and comprehensive that it alone forever, disproved that womenwere not capable of as fine scientific work as men. Another interesting fact we learn from the great coeduca tional school is that one woman has this year won her way to a position on the editorial staff of the college paper through having contributed more "and better articles last -year than most of her political superiors.

I thought it a good chance for Yankee enterprise and started la to hustle. When I got around to the office again I had two columns of live matter ready to work up. The ed itor wanted to know what I had found, and I showed him my bun dle and expected a word of praise. Instead of being pleased, he mourn fully said: : ; " 'My dear sir, all this happened last night or to-day. It is too fresh. It would ' excite our readers. And, besides, it would be unfair to our con temporaries to publish these things first.' . "In the batch I had a fatal acci den t. A drunken Mexican had fallen off his inule and broken his neck.

In 1609 they went to Leyden, where tney organized a cnurcn, and re mained , eleven years. In 1617 an-, other removal was contemplated,! and the pastor favored emigration to America. Agents went to Eng land and made arrangements for such emigration, and later, in 1G20; a portion of the Leyden congregation, . under the spiritual leadership ol Elder William Brewster, reached the New England coasL - Robinson in tended to follow with the remainder of the congregation, but be died be fore tbe consent of tbe English mer chants, who con trolled the enter prise, could be obtained..

Clatsop cemetery is located on the Ohanna river between Grimes and Gearbart. Nine Indians, the rem nants of tho once powerful Clatsop tribe, are camped near by. But this has nothing to do with the story. , Nine years ago Julia Marchclle, the daughter of an old Indian woman, died and was burled In the cemetery. In accordance with the Indian cus tom money was deposited in the cof fin. There were abut twenty-seven dollars in ca?h and some'' old coins. Ever since Mis Marchclle died, her mother, an Indian woman of about ninety years, tias visited tier grave daily. One Sunday morning she made her - usual visit and was sur prised to find the fence broken down. -This she thought was done bv the wind and she paid no attention to it. But when she knelt over the grave she imagined that ahe beard dole ful sounds issuing from IL She then ihado a close inspec tion and found indications that ghouls had been at work. She then returned to the camp, and .onn after informed County Judge McGuire of. her suspicions. As there was no cause to doubt her statement. Judge McGuire decided to make an investi gation, and be went to the cemetery with tbe constable and two or three others. Several graves were exam ined, and a file was found on that of an Indian who died years ago. This was the first one opened, and it was found that the coffin bad been robbed of what money there had been de posited there, and also that the bones of a boy, who died some time ago and was buried near by, had ' been put in the coffin. About two dollars and fifty cents in silver and . a watch had been pf&&J in the boy's coffin, and these .had been taken away. On old brass chain and some campaign medals ofWilliam Henry Harrison, bearing the dale-f-.lS41, were found In tbe coffin. The grave of Julia Marchclle was then ppencd, and It was found that it had also been despoiled. AU the nvney and jewelry that had been de- -vsited there, except a fivedollar gold piece, a silver doUarCa gold ring, three brass rings and six Har rison medals, laid been taken.. Be sides these nothing was left except the remnants of some silk handker chiefs. ' ' . The old Indian woman refused to touch any of the coins or trinkets taken out ;of the graves, nor would she allow them, to be placed in when -the bones were reinterrcd. So the ' discoverers divided them among themselves. Oregonian. . . Crossing the Legs.
