Of his Chautauqua engagement he says: Besides my talk, I am going to show all the famous 'rastlin' holds, do an expansion act and show what clean living has done for me."

That one lives to be old is nothing if he be half dead all his life. One with an iron constitution might be a confirmed inebriate all of his mature life and still live to be 80 years old. But what of it? Is that an argument in support of the liberal use of intoxicants? Had he been a total abstainer, he might have lived to be 100 years old. What has his life amounted! to?

One's nerves and sensibilities mav be so deadened or be numbed by dissipation, by the use of stimulants, tobacco or narcotics that he is incapable of real enjoyment, even in a physical way ; and they become so deadened in proportion as he yields to the appetite for these things. The nerves thus deadened can not feel to the same degree the pleasure that comes constantly to him who leads a truly clean life. The man with uncontaminated brain, nerves and life gets real thrills from his pleasures, his work, his achievements. To him it is a constant joy merely to be alive. For him no pe riods of ennui, no disturbing, abnormal cravings, no wish ing for the end of an empty life or thoughts of suicide to fin ish it all. His daily life is full of rich rewards that make life well worth living. His religion, for of course such a one eventually turns to religion, is not one of sorrows and gloomy regrets ; one full of wonderings whether a jusGod may or may not have for given his sins and vices. His religion is a joy, the source of his highest, greatest pleasures. As the end of life ap proaches he faces the future the great eternity not with trembling uncertainty, but with upturned eyes and radiant face, confident and unafraid. rer and bluo mud.

If only a considerable proportion of them are the testi mony holds; and the same thing is true in Oregon and elsewhere. The extraordinary scope of Am erican inventive genius is almost proverbial. That it is accompan ied by remarkable patience seems to be indicated by the annual re port of the commissioner of pat ents. The average wait before a new case is reached by the exam iners, he says, ia' seven months. After a record year the office now has 40,444 applications on file awaiting examination.

It is made chiefly of oats, peanuts, salt aivJ water. This might start threY cheers in Scotland and cause a flutter of interest in the breast of Henry Ford, but the rest of us refuse to become enthusiastic. If Henry's mechanical cow is going to shed a fluid made of peanuts and water or oatmeal and salt, nobody will care to milk the blamed thing. The more gossip we hear about synthetic milk the more we love the good old Jersey heifer. Certainly nobody would cry over spilled milk that was made from wild oats, goobers and salt water.

He is a speaker of mag netic power and huris his argu ments against the lawless and il licit sale of liquor with a force that nothing withstands. His wide experience as leader of the forces of law and order in three or four states gives him a grasp of the sit uation that few men possess. The results that have been ob tained by the law and order de partment under bis direction tells of the effectiveness of his plans. The league is simply overwhelmed ' with calls for help. His coming to Salem ought to insure for him a wide and sympathetic hearing. This Anti-Saloon league of Ore gon is In the midst of a vigorous campaign to arouse public senti ment in favor of law enforcement. Daily the evidences of its ef fectiveness are see from the re sults obtained. More than a score of stills have been captured. 35 convictions secured, thousands of gallons of mash and hundreds of gallons of liquor destroyed. In the present struggle against the' illegal sale of liquor, several hun dred communities have turned to the Anti-Saloon league for- help.
