UR MINISTER IN PEKING, WILLIAM J. CALHOUN.'
THE chaotic condition of affaira In China makes the position of
minister to Peking the most trying In the diplomatic service.
It Is now held by William J. Calhoun, who has cut abort his
leave of absence to be on the ground where events of stirring
Import may be expected at any moment and has been In dally communi
cation with the state department ever since his return. Mr. Calhoun Is
a lawyer of Chicago and before his entrance Into diplomatic life was a'
member of the Interstate commerce commission. He was sent as special
envoy to Venezuela in 1905 and In the adjustment of the difficulties with
President Castro acquitted himself In such a manner as to establish
with the state department a reputation as a diplomat possessed of pa
tience and tact. He will probably find ample occasion for the exercise
of both these admirable qualities before he returns to the United States
from his post of delicacy and danger. .
WASHINGTON WAS FIGHTER FOR PEACE
(Continued from page lj
1
from espousing an unpopular cause
which he believed to be a righteous
one. He could endure reverses be
cause he was not fighting for personal
glory or aggrandizement and he be
lieved in the ultimate triumph of the
right. He was not of the mind of
General Charles Lee who cared noth
ing for the right or wrong of any
cause and contemptuously said, 'Heav
en was ever found favorable to strong
battalions.'
"Is seemed as if Washington gained
all his experience through military
misfortunes. He conducted the mili
tary affairs of Virginia at personal
los3 to himself, both of health and for
tune. His fame grew in spite of his
failures and his character always
shone, brightness against the most
fearful odds. His early popularity was
the fruit of his defeats, because of
the indomitable spirit with which he
met them and came out of them. In
the Revolution his success came from
his remarkable power to turn darkness
into dawn and achieve the seemingly
impossible.
"Washington was a soldier who
found his inspiration in other men's
despair. The more numerous the ob
stacles the more he exerted himself.
Raw troops, lack of equipment, inef
ficient support, scheming subordi
nates, nature's barriers, all these were
the material out of which to work out
ultimate victory.. 'We must bear up
against difficulties,' he wrote General
Schuyler, 'and make the best of man
kind as they are since we cannot have
them as we wish.' , He felt that the
cause would not sink through for a
time under a cloud. It was this per
ennial hopefulness which made Wash
ington stand a bulwark against real
defeat when even the country itself
seemed against him.
"Another side of Washington's
military character which should never
be forgotten was his consideration for
the men with whom he dealt, whether
friends or enemies. He was ever loath
to take the life of enemies and treat
ed his captives with marked generos
ity. While for his men he was al
ways most solicitous. His sympathies
were always with the husband men
and laborers who composed the rank
and file of his army. He knew why
it was so hard to keep them in the
ranks when the call of home was In
their ears. Yet most of all he heard
the cry of the panic-stricken people
whom the army must defend. In the
early Virginia days he once wrote, 'I
would offer myself a willing sacrifice
to the butchering enemy (of red
skins) provided that would contribute
to the people's ease.
"Washington was not a man aloof
from the people. Rightly should he
stand first in the hearts of his coun
trymen for they ever stood first in
his own heart. With what sadness
did he hear the news of Lexington, j
'Unhappy it Is to reflect that a broth- j
er s sword has been sheatned in a
brother's breast and that the once
happy and peaceful plains of America
are to be either drenched with blood
or unhabited by slaves. Sad alterna
tive! But can a virtuous man hesi
tate in his choice?' When in dignified j
terms he remonstrated with General I
Gage at Boston, for his treatment of j
American onicers wuo were prisoners
of war and received the answer that
he (Gage) acknowledged no rank not
derived from the King.. Washington j
replied: 'I cannot conceive of rantf
more honorable .than that which flows
from the uncorrupted choice of a
brave and free people the purest
source and original fountain of all
power.' No democrat could be more
democratic than he who later refused
to be called king of a free people and
retired when the war was over to the
home he loved, unattended with pomp
or power, but followed by the love
and honor of the new nation he had
created. Like the citizen soldiers of
'61 he also could say in '75, 'When
we assumed the soldier we did not
lay aside the citizen, and we shall
most sincerely rejoice- with, you in
that happy hour when the establish
ment of American liberty shall enable
us to return to our private stations,
in the person of a free, peaceful and
happy country.' 1
"Washington was first in war be
cause he loved peace and he fought
as a soldier that he might make Am
erican citizenship a peaceful and glor
ious reality."

WRINKLES.
I clipped the following from the
"beauty" page of a Sunday newspaper:
Wrinkles are caused by tired muscles.
They are more easily prevented than
cured. To remain wrlnkleless woman must
have a placid existence, free from emotion.
Why, certainly, but
I should like to see a picture of the
woman except she be a harem beauty
who Is able to live a placid existence,
free from emotion.
Emotion is woman's life.
If it does not come to her she will
seek it Woman lives in her heart
For that is the woman. And she can
not really live and escape her lot
Only in childhood may one live a
more or less placid life.
As a young bride a woman must face
the severe trials of a young house
keeper. The process of adjustment to
the wedded , life Is often made to the
accompaniment of many tears. Woman
cannot quit her wifely task because of
the muscle tire that causes wrinkles
Free from emotion?
As wife she must share the griefs
and divide the sorrows with her hus
band. She cannot live the placid life
and let him tread the winepress alone.
She, too, must sometimes wrinkle her
brow.
The placid life? .
As mother she must suffer all the
pangs of motherhood. How can she
push away emotion when her heart
clutches In an agony of anxiety
through the watches of the night for
her children's sake? And what cares
she for the coming of the wrinkles In
such a time?
Moreover
What sort of woman wonld she be
did she escape the shocks of emotion?
She must be aimless, because a fixed
purpose requires struggle. She must
be loveless, because love means self
sacrifice.
Do not misunderstand.
Woman may escape needless worry,
and useless striving. Modern woman
is learning bow to rest her tired mus
;les by reasonable relaxation.
But her world at best is a bard one.
And sooner or later the tired face will
show the wrinkles.
Let ber not be ashamed.
The noblest faces you know are wrin
kled faces. And every wrinkle tells its
story of sacrifice and helpfulness.
The sweetest face I ever knew was a
wrinkled face. The last time I saw
that face It was In a coffin on Which
were piled many flowers. ,
It was the face of mother. -
- Soured.
Mrs. Caudl 'You used to say yon
could eat me. Caudle That was when
I thought you would agree with me. -

PROCLAMATION
To the People of Oregon City
For the past four years, Mr. V. Harris, one of the
most reliable dealers in your city, has been handl
ing Royal Table Queen Bread. In 1908 he sold you
about 40,000 loaves of it. The sales grew until they
averaged close to 125,000 loaves Hast year.
Growth Means Something
It means that ROYAL TABLE QUEEN BREAD has
PURITY, QUALITY, WHOLESOMENESS AND
GOODNESS.
It costs more to make and to sell ROYAL TA
BLE QUEEN BREAD more than any other bread
on the market. We make less on it Mr. Harris
makes less on it. . We could put out an inferior
bread and make more money, for a while at the
expense of reputation and honesty. Mr. Harris
could handle a cheaper bread, and make more per
loaf. But he is willing, and so are we, to sacrifice
some profit for the sake of Purity and Quality.
ROYAL TABLE QUEEN BREAD COSTS YOU
NO MORE ITS FIVE CENTS THE LOAF.
