LA GRANDE CHANGES ADVERTISING METHODS, From La Grande Observer, May 13. A new policy regarding the at talnment of publicity for La Grande was begun at laat night a meeting of Commercial club whan It was de elded to U3e the local papers for dis amone Tbe plan Is to buy from paper week ty subscriptions to the amount o' $10.00, and to sjnd to prospective 83t whose letters secrni to wan-ant o.ie of the papers for a period of three months. This will give the club an opportunity to furnish 800 inquir-its with ordlnary-every-day unvarnish 3d Information regarding our city ind our resources that could be given by no amount of lettei writing. While specially prepared booklets Circulars and other commonly uss jieans of advertising a community are good, there is always the danger oi living the recipients of such mattar the feeling that our drawbacks ar glossed over and our advantages exaggerated. Every day happenings facts about our crops, or fruit shipments, and in our civil life are told In every issue of the local papers, and readers will feel that they are getting the truth, plain and unvarnished.

Then, it they decide to come to this jeotion, they will do so with the intention of staying. Woodlark poisoned wheat. It kills the squirrels. Buy It at Burnaugh Mayfield's. A BUSINESS PARABLE.

From Trafford (Pa.) News. Once a farmer had 1,800 bushels of vheat, which he sold, not to a single merchant, but 1,800 different lealers, a bushel each. A few of them paid in cash, but far the greater number said it was not convenient then; would, pay later. A few months assed, and the man's bank account ran low. "How is this?" he said.

"My 1,800 bushels of grain should have kept me in affluence until another crop is raised, but I have parted with the grain and have instead only a vast number of accounts, so small and scattered that I cannot get around and collect fast enough to pay expenses." So he posted up a public notice and asked all those who owed him to pay quickly. But few came. The rest Bald, "Mine Is only a small matter, and I will go and pay same of these days," forgetting that, though each account was very small, when all were put together they meant a large sum to the man. Things went on thus. The man got to feeling so bad that he fell out of bed and awoke, and running to hl3 granery, found his 1,800 bushels of wheat still safe there.

He had only been dreaming. Moral. The next day the man went to the publisher of his paper and ald: sir, is the pay for your paper, and when next year's subscription is due you can depend on me to pay promptly. I stood in the position of an editor last night, and I know how he feels to have one's honest earned money scattered all over the country, in small amounts." The best washing earth ia the Flyer. S.

D. Keltner A Royal F.omanc. The second son of Trlnce Osrar IL fell In love with a Miss Ebba Munck while nt Bournemouth. She was one t)f the ladies In waiting to the Swedish rown princess, and King Oscar wished Lis sou to make an alliance with one of the royal houses of Europe. The difficulty seemed one to be met only by drastic steps on the part of the lovers, but Queen Sophie's heart was won, and she It was who obtained the king's consent She was very 111.

and a dangerous operation was the only chance of saving her life. "If I undergo It and It Is successful, will you allow Oscar and Ebba to be married?" 1 she asked the king, and of course the king promised. A year later the queen was quite well again. The lovers were in her room when the king approached. At the door he stood and listened.

Miss Munck was singing to the queen, nnd he waited until It was over. Then he advanced, held out one hand to his son and gave bis other to MI'S Munck, and so his pledge was fulfilled and the couple came Into their happiness. A Narrow Escap. An old circus man tells this Incident us one of the narrow escapes he had In the show business. He had trained lions, zebras, leopards, rhino you know and all sorts of beasts of prey, but this, he says, was his narrowest escape.

It was when he was running a dime museum In Milwaukee. One day. a mild mannered Russian came out of the railway station with valise In his band. He was a heavily benrded man and with shaggy bands and arms like George Esau. He hunted up a cabman and Inquired modestly.

"Where is the' dime museum?" The cabmnu told him and then asked, "Want to ride up?" "Yes," the benrded stranger told him quietly, almost bashfully. "I'm to be employed up there. I'm the wild man." "The narrow escape," says the ex-circus man, "lny in the fact that no newspaper man heard the man's remark and that the cabman was an Englishman, with no sense of humor, who never thought to repeat it."
