Be careful what rubbish you j

On outgoins billows it drifts
from your sight, I
But back on the incoming waves j

And land at -your threshold

Bo careful what rubbish you

Be careful what follies you toss i

On bright dancing billows

But back to the Nemesis tides

In all the history of disasters In
the United States, the response of the
people to the needy sufferers was
never so great as in the Hoppner

recover from the first shock, money

has continued every day since. It is
tho greatest possible tribute to the
American's open heart and hand.
The drunk Indian Is going to cause

There are too many men ready to risk
the danger for the small price. As

it is time to ascertain the reason.

The alarming Increase
ders and robberies on
Coast makes thoughtful citizens
shudder for the safety of the commu
nity. There are too many men with
out visible occupation living In every
city in the country. Too many of
them are engaged in the secret work
of ascertaining who, in the communi
ty hns ready money, which may be
obtained by the easy metnod of for
gery or the next step a knock on
the head in the dark. The law abid
ing people of every community should
insist that every doubtful man give
some evidence of his occupation, or
move on. It is the only safeguard
left by which the Innocent may 1k

The minister who resigned his pa's-
torate at Seattle this week and went
to work In a sawmill, because he
thinks the tendency of the church is
nward moral stagnation, has taken
coward's position. If every minis
ter should do this, there would be no
one left In the pulpits to fight against
moral stagnation. Every man is
honor bound to do his best to improve
the conditions around him, nnd the
higher his position the greater his
responsibility. It is cowardly to flee
from a duty, no matter how irksome
it may become. The way to encour
age wrong and moral stagnation is
to run away from them. The way to
check them Is to stand your ground
and make a fight.
Three thousand tons of Oregon

TEARFUL OR CHEERFUL?

Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription
changes tearful women to cheerful women
by curing the diseases which cause phys

It establishes regularity, dries unhealthy
drains, heals inflammation and ulcera

Each year sees more and more
money expended by states in the edu
cation of farmers. The great sciences
that surround the art of agriculture
are being more thoroughly demon
strated year by year. Oregon spends
about $50,000 per year on her agricul
tural schools and experiment stations.
The sole purpose of this exiiendlture
is to broaden tho possibility and
lighten the load of the farming com
munity, by introducing scientific
methods into the management of tlie
farm, and the handling of products.
Education is just as necessary in
handling a farm successfully, as in
handling a bank. The people are
coming to recognize this fact and the
efforts of tho state to supply that ed
ucation are fully appreciated.

women.
Keep the bowels healthy by the
timely use of Doctor Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets.
The dally papers greatly exaggerate
ed the losses to farmers. It was as
sumed that something llko a third
of Kansas and as large a portion of
Iowa and Missouri were devastated.
In the first-named state was the great
est loss. For 200 miles, over a strip
of valley land two to five miles wide,
tho water rushed for five days. In
tho currents the crops are gone. Not
more than one-half of this was tilled
land, on which crops were wiped out.
If tho crop loss amounts to $3,000,000
tliu probable maximum, it will be
but a trifle In a state which markets
$220,000,000 of farm products annu
ally. A dozen towns lost from $35,000 to
$100,000 each. Topoka's loss by far
the largest, proportionately of any of
the afflicted communities probably
was $1,000,000 or more. Here was the
greatest los of life 71. In Kansas
City the property loss Is greatest on
tbe railroads, and will reach to 7,
000,000 or more. The losses farther
down the streams Is lighter, propor
tionately, because of the preparation
time given. The governor of Kansas
Issued an appeal for aid for the thous
