ON THE WESTERN PIAZZA. In I'eiidleton are more than a hund red old gentlemen, who are living portraits and whose lives are story books of wonderful Interest. Go down the street iimon? ihe homes In the city, any autumn even ing, and look at the grey-haired man, sitting In au easy chair, on the West ern porch. Perhaps he Is asleep. The last rays of the sun ar kissing his brow; the autumn leaves aie falling at his feet and in his lap. like flakes of gold. One thin, white lock of hair is falling1 over his brow. Ills hands are at rest and he Is at peace wltli the world. Back across a mingling drama af triumph and adversity, his closed 'yes are wandering. It seems only a step backward to the open gate of babyhood, anil it Is only a step forward to that other open gate.' His sons and daughters are con tented and happy. His life's work is a success. The ripened fruit of ex- perience is ruddy, in the autumn sun shine of life. He Is waiting for to morrow, he is- living a monarch, crowned in achievement and jeweled with hope- The long story of strug gle is written and sealed. His land marks are seen every where about him, in the industries and enterprises that he has nourished and builded. Ills honorary membership In every social and business circle has long ago been conferred. No further de gree of contentment can he added to his measure. That unfolding charm of friendship, growing stronger and deeper, ho loves, to speak of. He is Just waiting on the broad. Western piazza. The sunset is beckoning. All is -well. cliards the freedom from pestilence that Is raging in other parts of the world; a growth In every industry that Is within our borders; friendship, within and without; work for the wil ling and reward for the worker; con tentment everywhere, and everywhere the sunshine of progress; prospects for the future that surpass, if possi- ' ble, the past. Amid such causes for gratitude, we are truly thankful. The French arbitration board has I decided against the coal miners, now I on a strike in that country. The board 1 declares that present wages are in i fair proportion to the selling price of coal and the operators cannot , mine the coal If compelled to pay more wages. Generals Botha and Delary have ' listened to a debate In the house of commons on the South African ques ' tlon. They were In about as much danger of bodily harm there as among the kopjes, according to the way the Irish flght in parliament and the way ' the English shoot on the veldt. The traffic that centers In and passes through Pendleton, dally, Is a symbol of the multiplicity of West ern industries. If one should under take to list the various commodities which are handled here each day, the story would be surprising, John Mitchell and John Morgan the two biggest men-in the public eye today. It would be a glorious specta cle to see these giants of labor and capital standing under the same um brella, and to hear them call each other "Jack." The school children of a Clilcago district struck because a teacher was objectionable to them. The next will be a strike of the babies, pending an Investigation to ascertain if the nurs ing bottle was made by union labor. NOW FOR THE FUTURE. Since the confusion of jubilant elec tion reports has passed over. It is found that the democrats have not' lost a victory in a national sense. Democratic states, in a few instances, have gone republican; democratic counties have been lost, and congres sional districts have changed into the republican line but from a strictly political point of view, thero is moro hope than ever. President Roosevelt is a reformer. He is a young man imbued with some of the most pro gressive Ideas of government that have ever been advocated from the presidential chair. He is also head strong, emphatic, persistent and tin movable in his belief. His ideas of tarifT revision, reciprocity, control of the trusts and the repeated belief he holds in the rights of the masses being equal to the rights of the classes, are leading him and his fol lowing toward a democratic point of view. The old-lino republicans will not follow hlra now. In his oxtremo views, and in this gradual formation of a new republican doctrine, uuder the leadership of the ablest man In the- party today, there Is a hope for democrats. The reform republicans are laying plans along democratic lines. Tho battle has not yet begun. When tho forces are arrayed against each other In congress, It will be found, perhaps, that one republican faction will lovo progress better than party lash, and In the final count, will put somo excel' lent democratic doctrine into laws. There ilias not been such a bright prospect for genuine reform; slnco republican laws have needed reform ing. Oregon ' has many causes for thanksgiving this year. Tho unprece dented crops, tho full frutlon of or- This Is a good time for democrats to sit still and say nothing. The frictions among republican policies will result In a democratic trend of doctrine. REMARKABLE GRIDDLECAKE. Two thousand fishes in one griddle cake. Five to ten thousand animals for a single breakfast. That is the sort of feast the natives enjoy on the Islands of the Philip pines. In Southern Luzon Is a beautiful mountain lake, called Lake Buhl, about 1000 feet above the sea. It Is supposed by the natives to havo no hottom, and is said to have been formed by "a volcanic upheaval which occurred before the Spanish came to the Archipelago. On that tragic oc casion, when many human lives were lost and much property destroyed, one side of Mount Irlga was blown out and hills of lava were scattered for miles. Not long ago Dr. Georgo A. Zeller found himself In tho neighborhood of Lake Buhl, and ascertained that there was in this body of water a queer kind of fish, only half an Inch long, which was used by the Filipinos for eating. Nothing, It appears, Is too small or Insignificant for tho natives of those islands to regard as available for tho table. So Dr. Zeller obtained some hundreds of the little fishes and sent them In a bottle to Surgeon Gen eral Sternberg, at Washington. Dr. Sternberg forwarded tho bottle with its contents to tho United States fish commission, where it was con sidered a great prize, Inasmuch as tho fish was declared to be not only tbo smallest in existence, but tho most minute vertebrate animal known to science. It weighs only half a grain, and half an inch is Its maxi mum length. The natives of Luzon call It the slnarapan, and their raodn of catching It Is with a net of exceeding fine mesh hardly moro than a .coarse cloth, which Is used as a selno. In this manner great quantities of tho tiny fishes are .captured, and, being dried In a mass In tbo sun, without! any other cooking, nro seasoned and pressed Into flat, round cakes. Inasmuch as a single cako con tains from 2000 to 3000 fishes, tho smnllncss of the latter will bo renllz ed. It would bo a nntlvo with meager appetite who could not ills pose of 10,000 of the finny creatures at a meal. Dr. 11. M. Smith of tho United Stntcs fish commission tins named the animal Mlstlchthys, from two Oieek words meaning "smallest and "fish." . The fish in question is a kind of goby, and there Is a suspicion that It is prnctically extinct for several months in every year, like certain animal plants. Meanwhile the eggs, which are so small that 1200 of them placed In line are required to measure one Inch, are Incubating for the pro duction of tho next generation. When the little fishes have been newly caught, by dipping a large sheet of close web under a school of them, they are put Into tightly woven baskets to drain. The natives buy them eagerly, and the fishermen re turning from tho morning's voyage are instantly surrounded by a crowd of waiting children, who offer In ex change for them potatoes, rice and copper pennies.

The consumptive dies without lungs to breathe the air, or of lungs rendered incapable of breathing by disease. The blood as it Hows in and out of the lungs indicates the consumptive's pro gress. As the lungs grow weaker less oxygen is inhaled and the blood changes from scarlet to pur ple. Oxygen is the life of the blood as the blood is the life of the body. The effect of Dr. Pierce's Gold en Medical Discovery upon weak lungs is to strengthen them, to en able the full oxygenation of the blood, arrest the progress of dis ease, and heal the inflamed tis sues.
