She had it in her power to make him strong. To lead him to a seat among the great; To make him see the right and shun the wrong. To awake within his soul a vi brant song, To soothe the wounds that filled his heart with hate. She might have led him from temptation's snare And fed the fire of hope with in his heart; She might have claimed the splendid right to share With him renown, unlimited and fair, And won unstinted credit for her part. But, longing for a glib fool's empty praise. And caring less for honor than for dress. She crushed him when she had the chance to raise. And, thinking herself wronged, dragged out her days In wretched and unpitied loneliness. S. E. Kiser. MAX'S INTERIOR IT Y. Man marvels much at himself. He contemplates with awe the wonders of his works, lie is amazed with his own greatness, and can scarcely un derstand it. He looks back upon the savage barbarian he once was and admits that civilization has evolved a. superior creature indeed. It would be useless to dispute his grounds for this self admiration. He is a won derful being. He has achieved much dcring his development, an 1 his su periority over all other living cre tores has given him undisputed lord ship and dominion on this earth. But In the midst of his adulation of elf, it might be well for him to re flect upon his own deficiencies as well as upon his abilities, upon what he- has lost by civilization as well as upon what he has gained by it, oh IJs laferiority as well aa upon his superi ority. The PortlanJ Oregonian while re futing the contention that some horses have been known to have reasoning powers, at the same time gom on to show wherein the lower animals are superior to man. "llvsrs is reason to believe," it says, "that most animals surpass mankind In the precision and delicacy of their senses, as well as in swiftness of muscular response to stimuli. It Is known by stockmen that a mare can convey a whole volume of informa tion to her foal by the slightest touch of her nose. The foal Is asleep on the sjratjad. The dam scents danger. No sooner has she touched the flank of ber slumbering charge than It la awake, on its feet and ready to run n full speed. The muscular response of a sleeping cat to a stimulus of any kind is so swift that human eyes can not follow it Much more is this true of wild animals. It Is a curious -question whether mankind once pos sessed the same delicacy of sense and has now lost it, or whether we have sxlways been dull compared with the blasts. The acute sight and hearing of savages seem to argue that the senses of the human race are not nat urally inferior. Saint Bernard virtu ally destroyed his sight, taste and smell by the severities of his ascetic life. Civilization has wrought some thing of the same effect upon us all. Perhaps by an Improved education we may sometime regain what we have lost, if it is worth while. As the world goes there Is some doubt whether acuter ears would make ui happier. It might depend a good deal tke sort of sounds the new ca pacity would reveal to us." It SHOULD NOT BE. apples go begging is the local markets at 7 osnU per box while apples of no better qual ity from Hood River, Milton, Free--fjsjlsV, or son otfcsr ontstds point ell readlhr at 11.10." This was the siatement made Saturday at the meet ing of the Farmers' Union by Ed Du Fuis. the well known fruit grower residing on his farm a few miles west of Pendleton. If this condition Is true it Is to be deplored. "Patronize home industry" should be the motto of every com munity and this motto should be ap plied to fruit and vegetables produc ed at home just as much ns to any manufactured article. It was demonstrated at the recent .listrict fair that apples grown along the Umatilla river are capable of winning prizes over the same varie ties grown in some of the more fa mous fruit sections. The local grow ers are taking just as good care of their orchards, the apples are Just as free from worms, just as red and juicy and they are being packed just us attractively. Therefore instead of going begging at lower prices the In nie grown fruit should be in de mand at higher prices. SHORT WORDS. One of the most convincing lec tures against the use of big words by innateur writers is contained in a re iint issue of Life and the average nailer, after laborously perusing the article, whether or not he is intelli gent enough to understand the dls o. i tation, will without doubt be im pressed with the advantage in using short words. The sermonette fol 1" w: "Literary aspirants should religi ously eschew polysyllabic arthography. The philosophical and philological sub-structure of this principle is In eluctable. Excessively attenuated verbal symbols inevitably induce un necessary complexity and consequent ly exaggerate the obfuscation of the mentality of the peruser. Conversely, expressions which are reduced to the farthermost minimum of simplifi cation and compactness, besides con tributing realistic verisimilitude, con stitute a much less onerous handicap to the reader's perspicacity. Observe, for instance, the unmis takable and inescapable expressive ness of onomatopoetic, interjectional, monosyllabic utterances, especially when motivated under strenuous em otional circumstances. How much more appealing is their euphonious pulchritude than the preposterous and pretentious pomposity of elong ated verbiage." If every man would regard every woman as a lady until she proved herself otherwise and if every wo man would regard every man other wise until he had proved himself a gentleman, there would be many less lost souls in the ranks of the woman hood of the world. The Oregonian only affirmed six measures, of which five were defeat ed. It is a poor guide and a worse guesser. Portland Labor Press. The silence of the Strenuous One Is misconstrued by many. He is not dead, he only sleeps. The poultry show Is next. PORTUGUESE DEGENERACY. Education has generally been at a low ebb in Portugal. Reliable sta tistics indicate that less than one fifth of the population can read and write. The country, wnicn nas an area somewhat less than that of the state of Indiana, and a population ap proximately equal to that of Illinois, has always been engaged in agricul ture The neoDle. who once were the world's greatest navigators, have lost, during the past two centuries, me en ergy which formerly characterized them. Their agricultural and com mercial methods are very antiquated. This state of affairs, together with tho Tinlltleal eorruDtion and lack of education already alluded to, has re sulted In appalling governmental mis manaeement and a chronic deficit. Not even the riches of Portugal's co lonial possessions which cover more than three-ciuarters of a million square miles and have a population of mow than nine minions, couia on set the corruption at home. -From "The Progress of the Worm." m me American Review of Reviews for No vember. Piano-Tuner vs. Earthquake. Once. In the company of President Diaz. I spent a few night in the Mex ican earthquaqe zone aa the guest of th nivprnnr of the state. As a mea sure of precaution, the plaster ceil ings of our sleeping rooms had been replaced with strips of matched boarding. "If a temmor snouia i-om in the night, senor." remarked my host, as he was bidding me good night, "wait for nothing, nut mam straight for the patio. I think these boards will hold until you get from under cover." And that evening, when I took the governor's wife out ta dinner, she had remarked sadly: "We are so benighted here In the hot lands; it Is Impossible even to nave music, for no sooner do I have my grand piano tuned than an earth quake comes along and tips It over."

The bosses of both parties, and their newspaper organs, have raised the deafening cry that Mr. Roosevelt has become a boss and is planning to be an American king or emperor. Nobody who is at once honest and in telligent would call Mr. Roosevelt a boss, because the word "boss" has come to mean exactly the opposite thing in our American politics. Gov ernor Hughes has won great triumphs in the state by sheer force of char acter, and by the influence to which he was entitled through his public services. Hut it would be ridiculous to say that Governor Hughes was a boss. Mr. Roosevelt Is no more a boss in New York than Woodrow Wilson 's a boss in New Jersey. Charles F. Murphy of Tammany Hall, is a boss who now dominates the democratic machinery not only of the great city but also of the state. Mayor Gaynor of New York City, who is today the most influential and popular demo crat in the state, is on the other hand not a boss but exactly the opposite. He is influential and popular for quite the same reasons that give Mr. Roose velt his hold. Those reasons are eas ily summed up. Mayor Gaynor shows great gifts and talents for public life, and thus far shows a disposition to use his talents for the public welfare so that lie gains the confdonee of his fellow citizens and has a great fol lowing. The late Mr. Brayton of Rhode Island was a boss of the typi cal sort. The victory at Saratoga over the bosses was not Roosevelt's victory by any means, but the victory of the Intelligent masses of republi can voters in the state who sent to Saratoga a body of nearly six hun dred delegates freed from the shack les of local bosses. The convention was controlled, not by Roosevelt, but by the unbossed majority of the dele gates. The position of the minority, held obediently in line by a group of disappointed bosses, was not a pleas ant spectacle. Even Vice President Sherman must have been humiliated by the intellectual feebleness of the fight made by his supporters. From "The Progress of the World," In the American Review of Reviews for No vember. ALL THINGS COME. The magnate looked up impatiently from his work. "Well, my good man," he snapped at the diffident rural person who stood twirling his rusty hat, "what can I do for you?" "I guess ye don't remember me, Hank," faltered the caller. "But you an' me use ter go swimmin' together in th' ol' town. Then you got a Job 'n th' grocery store.' "This is all very interesting and I seem to remember your face. But come to the point my time is valu able." "Yes, Hank. You got a better of fer and let' the old village. I stayed pluggin' along in th' grocery store." "Well, well?" "Well, Hank, when you left you owed $73 62 on a grocery bill. Here's where you pay up!" Cleveland lead er. IT III COME OFF. Irving Bacheller, the author of "Eben Holden," was Introduced one day by a mutual friend to a western mountaineer. "Mr. Bacheller," exclaimed the friend to the mountaineer, "Is an au thor of great repute In the east." "Oh yes!" drawled the mountain eer. "I know of him. I was locked up in my cabin here by the snow two winters ago and I only had two books to read the whole five months; your book, sir," he said, turning to Mr. Bachelder, "and the Bible, and I read them through several times." "Indeed!" said the author, a smile of satisfaction wreathing his face. "Yes, sir," continued the old moun taineer, "and I never knew before how interesting the Bible was." A LARGE PRESIDENT. President Taft attended the recent aero meet, at which Mayor Fitzgerald of Boston made a trip with Grahame Whlte. After the flight the plane was landed near the automobile occupied by the president, who congratulated Mr. Fitzgerald on his coolness and nerve, and asked: "Are you not afraid to go up ln such a flighty machine?" "There Is only one machine that I am at all afraid of," was the smiling reply of "Honey Fritz,'- "and that is the republican machine." The president, composing himself with an effort. Inquired: "And could you see people on earth very plainly while you were away up In the air?" "Well," replied "Honey Fritz," a droll twinkle ln his eye, "I could see you without any difficulty." From Success Magazine. True Gift for Fiction In a New Brunswick village a town character who preferred emphasis to the verities was a witness in a petty trial Involving an auger. He posi tively Identified It as the property of the parties to the suit. "But," asked the attorney for the other side, "do you swear that you know this auger?" "Yes, sir." "How long have you known It?" he continued. "I have known that auger," said the witness, impressively, "ever since It was a gimlet." Everybody's Maga zine. A Littlo Advico WORTHY OF NOTICE.

It Is also ex cellent for Colds and Grippe, A LEAVE.YLXG SPIRIT. Washington's farewell to the Am erican people solemnly warned them against the bane of partisanship, and the people, 114 years after his warn ing, are bidding farewell to the spirit of party. Political parties are necessary and Inevitable in every government by the people, but the spirit of party, in the souse of partisanship or faction, is aa evil. Its general effects are bale ful and demoralizing. It helys to dis turb public consideration of affairs of state. It serves to enfeeble the ad ministration of the government. In American .history it originated the Mexican war, and lends Iself today to the political power of corrupt cor porations. The idea of good citizenship has come to the front, and is thrusting that of loyalty to party off the field. The good ciizen is the ideal now, not the republican nor the democrat who is loyal to his party first and his country afterward. For the first time since 1 S2 0 names of parties have ceased to square with real differences between them Between Roosevelt as a republican nnd Woodrow Wil-so-. as a democrat there is no real difference as to the power of the peo ple and the duty of the government concerning the regulation of corpor ations. Between Mayor Gaynor and Roger Sullivan, the democrats, there is less political sympathy than be tween Gore of Oklahoma and La Fol Icf.e of Wisconsin, though the first is a democrat, and the second a re publican. The new moral idea called progres siveness, the determination that cor rupt business shall be driven out of politics and the people resume con trol of their parties and of govern ment, has honeycombed all parties. It has real leaders and multitudes of followers among the republicans and democrats alike. It means the elec tion In November of progressive dem ocrats and of progressive republicans. It has leavened both parties with the idea that good citizenship Is the na tion's need. If either Ignores the warning it will be cast away. If both are regenerated they will survive, and the convictions of their voters will become clearer and stronger. Spokesman-Review. WALTER WIXAXS. Turn about is fair play.

He is a mighty hunter and the best pis tol, shot in Europe, if not In the world. As a sculptor and painter he has achieved fame, having exhibited his work at the Royal academy, the French salon anil elsewhere. He was born in St. Petersburg. His father, William Louis Winans and his uncle, Thomas Winans, who were rich rail way contractors made a huge for tune building railways for the Rus sian government. They constructed the only great railway In the world which runs ln an absoluteluy straight line, that from Moscow to St. Peters burg. The Czar could get no Euro pean engineer to attempt the task, bo the two WinanB took It and made good. Thomas returned to America, but William settled ln England, be cause he hated to cross the Atlantic. Walter was then eighteen years old and had been educated In St. Peters burg. The father died ln 1897, leav ing a fortune of over in, 000, 000 which the English government de cided to levy a tax upon, claiming Winans to be a British subject. The Winans estate In Kent is occupied on ly on a long lease, but Walter has beautified It at the cost of a for tune and its stables are the most fa mous in the world. The contest be tween Mr. Winans and Alrfed Vander bilt at the horse show this year Is likely to be the most spirited one In the history of the horse show. Orpheum Theatre J.

I Channlng Pollock cites a certain melodrama, produced a few years ago on Fourteenth street ns containing the busiest and most Inconsistent vll lan ever created. In the first act, he tied the beauti ful heroine to a railroad track Just as the limited was due. In the sec ond, he lured her into an old house, locked her In an upper room and set the place on fire. In the third, he strapped her under a buzz saw and set the machinery in motion. In the fourth, he tore the planking out of the Brooklyn bridge, so that her au tomobile plunged through to tho rag ing flood below. In the fifth act he started to make love to her. She shrank from him. "Why do you fear me, Nellie?" he asked. Success Magazine. "He has tricked me for the last time." "What is his last roguery?"
