Science, religion, ethics all are dwarfed Into tame and commonplace subjects, compared to the wonderful achievements of Luther Burbank, the wizard of tho plant world. So marvelous are hla powers over plant life and nature, so closely has he lived to the bosom of the earth and Its products, that he Is master of every thing that grows, it seems. Until one has seen his wonderland at Santa Rosa, California, it is Impos sible to get an adequate Idea of his work. There he arms and disarms the cactus, taking off and putting on its spines, as a knight would put off his armor; there he changes God's fixed colors In the blushing rose, upturns all scientific theories of species and evolves a new species of plant as a common gardener trains a vine to climb a string. A 14-year-old walnut tree, under his mystic training, has attained a diame ter of over two feet, while Its parent tree standing a few feet away Is but one-third Its girth, although 100 years old. He mingles the vital essence of the plum and apricot and produces a plumcot, a fruit never heard of before, having an entirely new and strange flavor untasted on earth before. He breeds and interbreeds plants until they arc changed out of their natural Older and created into something new. Color, form, characteristics, per fumes and all the various parts of plant life are as clay In his hand, to fashion and mingle at will, Into new and startling discoveries. And back of It all and through it all Is the overshadowing fact that man has lived In Ignorance of these simple principles until now. Nature Is his plaything and toy. If man understands her. He was given dominion, In the beginning, but he has failed to claim his Inheritance and nature has stood aloof, a myjterlous, threatening, for mUable, awesome thing In the human estimation, all these years, while the truth Is, she Is a pliable, beautiful yielding thing, submissive to the Intel lect and susceptible to Immeasurable variation under thoughtful and studi ous direction. Purbank Is the greatest living preacher. He Is nearer to God, by be-In-; near to nature, than any other man in the pu'illc eye today. WHO SHOULD PAY THE HILL? An Inquiry and a suggestion are combine 1 In the following pertinent editorial from the San Francisco Ex aminer. It says In. Its Issue of Thurs day: President Roosevelt's plans for his southern trip arouse once more the question as to the manner In which the expenses of such a Journey are met. These expenses are heavy, for the president must take with him secre taries, clerks, so:ne personal and po litical Men Is, and press correspond ents. He must have a special train, both In recognition of the dignity of his office and because receptions anl speech-making at every stop make schedule time Impossible. Probably such a trip as his last one to the Pa cific coast would cost fully a quarter of his, annual salary. It Is usually announced that our traveling presidents pay their own fares. Perhaps It has been tho cus tom, though we greatly doubt It At any rate, they do not pay for the spe cial and unusual privilege accorded them, and chould not be asked to, as the privileges are tendered really to the office they hold. A railroad trade paper had recently made the flat accasatlon that the president presumably Mr. Roosevelt literally held up the Pennsylvania road rr a special train on a long Journey, Few will credit the charge, hut It Is discreditable to the nation that it could be made with plausibility. Presidential journeys when kept untainted by partisan political purpose are useful to the nation. They nre Illuminating to the president and the people alike. ind should not be aban doned. Hut they should not be made at the expense of the president, whose salary is none too large for his needs; nor of the rallriiads, who will be sure to ask favors In return. They should be. within proper limits, at national expense. I'ongivss may properly consider this matter at the coming session. It Pendleton had something in the form of a public park, where outdoor meeting' could be held she could have a dozen conventions and conferences each year because of her central loca tion in he rinhind e.nplre and her ex cellent -railroad facilities. She is the logical meeting place for all eastern Oregon and Washington and western Idaho conventions, being half way be tween .the two extremes and having excellent climate and excellent train service. A summer Chautauqua could be organized here with ease, If a suit able place fur holding it were availa ble. A public park would not unly be a pleasure to all the people of the city and surrounding country, but it would be a profitable investment. Suppose 600 people only, should be attracted here each year, by a first-class meet ing place fur public conventions and associations, in the summer season. If these visitors should spend but $10 each during the visit here, it would mean $ TiOOO per year brought to the city by such a park. We don't get a cent from such a source now. If this outside money could be brought here. It would make the park a good In vestment, if we wish to look at It from a purely mercenary view. And then there Is a value In a public park which cannot be measured In dollars and cents. The Adams Advance says: "It had been ordered some lime since by the city council that every one clear their premises of obnoxious weeds, but the people of Adams are no exception to the rule of persons who desire to go as far as possible against the law without getting into actual trouble, hence a great many around town have entirely disregarded the orders." This is a horrible state of affairs! Citizens of Adams, awake! Hut let us see; Is not this the same Adams Advance which soundly criticized the East Ore gonlan and the Law Enforcement league for demanding the enforcement of laws In Pendleton against worse things than Russian thistles or Chi nese lettuce? Poise City has taken an advance step which can well be imitated by any other city. In passing a rigid anti cigarette ordinance, prohibiting nny person under 21 ironi having ar-y of the nvttcrlals for cigarettes In his pos session. The penalty Is a $20 fine or five days in Jail and ls being rigidly enforced Cigarettes In the public schools make more backward and In dolent pupils than any other cause. About half the boys who quit school at 18 or 17. because they cannot learn any more, can trace the cause of their quitting to cigarettes and their evil ef fects upon the mind and will power. LARGEST CIVILIZED NATION. The I'nited States Is by far the larg est of all the civilized nations except Russia, which has about 130.000.000 Inhabitants. The German empire has 51.000.000, Austria-Hungary 47.000. 000, Japan 47.000.000, France 3S.000, o0 Italy 32.000,0110 and Spain 18.- 000.000. China has 35n.OO0.000. but she does not count In the calculation of this sort. Owing to the rapid growth of the I'nited States, the Eng t'sh language. Is now spoken by more persons than use any other civilized toncrue. Charles V said he spoke Oermnn to bis horse. French to men, Italian to his 'Tlv friends, and Spanish to God. In -! days, three and a half centuries ago nnln was a land on which the sun "ever set. England was only a small spot on the map, and tho English lan in"e h"ld only a minor place In the ivlllzcd tongues. Today 130.000.000 speak English. 100.000,000 speak Russian (for not all the people of the empire talk the nn "onil tongue), 75,000.000 use German. 70 000,000 employ Spanish. Including 'be Inhabitants of the Lat In-American countries, and 40,000,000 speak. French. Moreover, the lead for English Is rapidly lengthening. Nearly two-thirds of all the people who speak the Eng lish tongue are In the United States. Leslie's Weekly. An Indian Territory Mathematician. At Sunday school last Sunday In one of the local churches the teacher of the primary clnss asked a little 9-vmr-old boy: "If you would break one of the Ten Commandments, what would be the result T" The little boy began figuring on his fingers and then said: "There would be nine left."

Sugur, when Introduced Into Eng land, was only used for the purp.is- f making medicines more palata ble. Hooks when first printed had their haves printed on one side only, the blank sides being pasted together. Regattas, now so popular, originat ed In Venice. The first regatta held In England took place on the River Thames In 1776. Italy devised the art of music printing, musical notes having first been impressed with movable metal types In 1502 by Octavlo Petruccl. Tissue paper was originally Intend ed to be placed between tissue of gold or silver to prevent Its fraying or tarnishing when folded, hence the name. Identification by finger print Is i generally supposed to be quite a mod ern detective device; but It appears It was employed In Korea 1200 years age. The colored wood Industry began In Ituly In the 17th century, and wool coloring establishments were located in Sweden during the Thirty ears' War. lri-di hooks are shaped today ex actly as Ihey were 20 centuries ago, the only difference being in the ma terial Then they were made of bronze. Now they are made of steel. Foot soldiers are called Infantry from the tact that the name was first applied to a body of men collected by the infante, or heir apparent of Spain for the purpose of rescuing his fath er from the Moors. When the practice of medicine In France passed from the exclusive con trol of the monks Into lay hands, physicians were sworn to celibacy, and It was not until toward the end of the lilh century that the ban was lifted. AFRICA'S RAILROADS. With the completion of the giant bridge over tho Victoria Falls, the Cupe to Cairo railway marks a further stage In Its steady progress northward. The bridge Is a wonderful feat of en gineering skill, worthy (If that were possible) of the gorgeous natural work that It spans. No description can give an Idea of the majestic beauty of the Victoria Falls, on the Zambezi river, which when In flood are one and a quarter miles wide, the water precipitating It self through a gorge from 450 to 500 feet deep and 250 feet wide. The bridge Is stretched a distance of 4 50 feet, and being 4 50 feet above the wa ter it is the highest in the world. The railway will commence running over It In the beginning of July, and the members of the -jrltish association who are going to attend the meetings In South Africa In August will thus be able to cross tho bridge by rail. The Duke of Abercorn will perform the ceremony of opening the railway. Another great railway scheme is In contemplation, although nothing defin ite Is settled in the matter as yet. This Is nothing less than a proposed trans African railway, crossing the conti nent from east to west. The proposal is to begin the line simultaneously from Dacres-Salaam, in German East Africa, and the seaport of Libervllle. In the French Congo. The railway will thus pass through the heart of the Congo Free State, and will doubtless effect a junction with the Cape to Cairo line. Africa. The German empress Invariably writes with a swan quill a beautiful, large creamy thing, carefully selected and prepared. Wherever her majesty goes packets of these quills are among the luggage, and when last spring. during the Mediterranean cruise, the fupply failed, a-special messenger was dispatched from Potsdam to Taormlna with a consignment of these Indispen sable trifles.

It lias been found by experience that catarrhal diseases of the pelvic organs are the cause of most cases of female diseases. Dr. Hartinan was among the first of America's greatest physicians to make this discovery. Eor forty years be has been treating diseases peculiar to women and long ago be reached the conclusion that a woman entirely free from ca tarrhal affection of these organs wonld not be subject to female diseases. He, therefore, began using Peruna for these cases and found it so admirably adapted to their permanent cure that Peruna has now become the most famous remedy for female diseases ever known. Every where tho women are using Hand prais ing it. Peruna is not a palliative sim ply ; it cures by removing the cause of female diseases. Peruna builds up the nerves and re stores the appetite and digestion. Dr. Hartman has probably cured more -women of female ailments than any other living physician. He makes these cures simply by using and recommend ing Peruna. JUST IN Right from the Fashion Centers New stock of latest idea novulty purses. Colors to match all shades of dresses.

WIFE CURED OP PELVIC CATARRH She Suffered For Years and Doctors Tailed to Give Relief Cured by Pe ru na. MRS. MINNIE E. MCALLISTER, wife of Judge MoAllister of Min neapolis, Minn, and Chaplain Loyal Mystic Legion of America, writes I " Buffered for yean with a pain la the small of my back and right aide. It Interfered often with my domestio and social duties and I never supposed tbat I would bo cured, as the doctor's medicine did not seem to help me any. "Fortunately a member of our Order advised me to try Peruna and gave It such high praise that I decided to try It Although 1 started in wilh little faith, 1 felt so much better In a week tbat I f el t encouraged. ' fook It faithfully for seven weeks and am happy Indeed to be able to say that I am entirely cured. Words fall to express my gratitude. Perfect health once more is the best tbrng I could wish for, and thanks to Peruna I enjoy that now." Minnie E. McAllister. Mrs. Esther M. Mllner, DeGraff, Ohio, writes: " I was a terrible sufferer from female weakness and bad the headache contin uously, I was not able to do my house work for myself and husband. I wrote yon and described my condition as near as possible. You recommended Peruna. I took four bottles and was completely cured. I think l'ernna a wonderful medicine." Mrs. Esther M. Mllner. Congressman Thad. M. Mahon, of Chambers burg, Pa., writes! " take pleasure In commending your Peruna as a substantial tonic and a good catarrh remedy. "-T. M. Mahon. Pe-rn-na Contains Ho Harcotict. One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotics of any kind. Peruna is perfectly harmless. It can be used any length of time withont acquir ing a drug habit. Poruna does not pro duce temporary results. It is perma nent in its effect. As tonio and nerve invigorator Peruna has no equal. It has no bad effect upon the system, and gradually eliminates catarrh by re moving the cause of catarrh. There are a multitude of homes where Pernna has been nsed oft and on for twenty years. Such a thing conld not be possi ble If Pernna contained any drugs of a narcotlo nature. Address Dr. Hartman, President of The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio.
