GOOD WORK Lewiston, Dec. 8 The new govern- meut dredge "Wallowa" is busy at work at the Offlelds about" 35 bnilei jr from ' hers' and with the few days work already has to a marked rfegrte. The ' river' Is both narrow and rhallow at this point and will give work to the boat for aome time. V " . " , "The boat did two days woik at tbs 0 bin, and the iLsllow stretch of W ben, la the fullness ot time, men shall be measured by the - standards men make for themselves, there wll1 -stand oat far above the masses with those other grand old . men, Gladstone ; and Bismark one Andrew Taylor Still until a few years ago practically un known.1 v. Today, a tall, slender figure, slight ly stooped as from the weight of many hardens, be wends his way as simply and as naturalb as the veriest fresh man. A kindly word for all, a quick, impulsive smile and handshake, and he haa gone leaving be'-lnd him the feel ing that it was good even to have seen the Old Dootor " J1ARD TO REALIZE III3 FAME1 Bnt one can hardlf realize, that In so apparently simple a man, could the seed have been born that has so grown and flourished as Osteopathy." To look at that tall tigure with toe beau tifully poised head, the deep, widely separated, spiritual ayes, and the firm yet gentle chin bearded as in early days the man with staff in hand brings to mind a picture of Baptist John, "the voice crying in tha wilder ness ' - The protest against the old. tha water there is now in good shape so i promlsa of newer, better things, better si t big boat, go over with little dif- now MMPl . ndlng- fUdty. for Dr. Still la ona ot the few great I teachers or preachers who have lived to see their tbeorlea put into practice, or to themselves enjoy - the fruitage from their planting. HIS EARLY STRUGGLES ' Hia early efforts, his trials and auo cesses, are no too well known to re quire repeating. ; By overcoming, he became atrong, and today his child, Osteopathy, has grown to gigantic pro portions and Is encircling tha globs, lie la essentially a man of one idea. The vein he struck thirty years ago ha has continued to work, and In that tlme.he has enriched the earth more than all the mints of all , the govern ments. ' ' " .' '.' WAAT HE HAS DONE FOB WOMAN Dr. Still has been criticised, about his carelessness In dress.' What doea the woman .who has been hours in labor, with the dreadful thought of operation hanging over ber, oare that be la not clothed as other physicians are? jr. . f : J ' Can he unlock the atruoture so that the foetal , head may passt Can the child be saved? These are things Im portant, and grateful women all over the length and breadth of the laud( helped bybia followers, are singing his praises If Dr. Still had made no discovery except in connection with obstetrics, for all time would his name be blessed, THE DOCTOR'S POPULARITY: It Is necessary to knew Dr. Still to appieolate his character. His presence in thf class-rooms, when be cornea in In his Inimitable way, ia usually greet ed with rounds ot applanae," and the nugitets he gives In his few minute talks are the treasured of. all the students. Hia knowledge of anatomy is marvelous and often he can tell ex: actly on what paga of what edition of Gray certain things may be found. And points inv physical examination that escape all others pay tribute to the Old Dootor's genius. . He likes his little Joke, and aaya now that he ia a Home-o-path, only prac ticing around home a little. But be is alwaya glad to give advice to doctors who have gone forth Into the field, ' THE SUMMING UP The Dootor's general health is good and we trust that he may be spared yet through many years. But when the final summing up shall come, to whom wlU ths earth yield most grate tal homage? To him who in nia ambition for pow er crushed his fellowmen in his Iron grasp, or to the simple ooantry doctor who has made life easier for countless millions?
