They talk about a woman's
sphere
As though It had a limit.
There's not a place In earth or
t heaven,
There's not a task to mankind
given.
There's not a blessing or a woe,
There's not a whispered yes or
no,
There's not a life, or death, or
birth
That has a feather's weight of
worth,
Without a woman in It

WHAT SUGGESTION' WILL DO.
Reading, Pa., has been recently
startled by a freak negro curing
whooping cough by kissing white
children in the mouth. For the past
two weeks, during an epidemic of
whooping cough this negro has been
both busy and successful.
Nobody believes that the kiss of a
negro has any virtue aa a medicine,
but It is declared by highly responsi
ble people that cures have been effect
ed by this outlandish performance.
It is simply an evidence of what
suggestion will do. Some old "gran
ny"' told her neighbors of a child be
ing cured by a negro's kiss, and as the
story flew from mouth to mouth, peo
ple began to believe it and constantly
suggested it to neighbors until cures
have followed.
Had the same old "granny" made
people believe that the kiss of a Po
lander or a Bohemian on the sole of
the foot ,or elsewhere on the body,
would cure whooping cough, this rem
edy, and not a negro's kiss, would
have leaped into prominence in Read
ing. And had people believed that a Po
lander's kiss on the sole of the foot
would effect a cure, the negro would
not have been lionized. But it would
have been the Polander's "day."
The cures effected by this freakish
method in Reading are results of men-
til upfteion This potent force will
some day revolutionize medical set
ence.
UMATILLA'S SITREME TEST.
The season of 1908 will go down In
the history of I'm.uiilu county as the
year In which the supreme climatic
test was applied to her agricultural
land.
With but little snow In the moun
tains during the preceding winter and
with no rain during the 'growing sea
son, crops have thrived and are yield
ing well in all sections of the county.
(The test has been severe and con
vincing. One farmer declared that he
had marked up the price of his wheat
" land 25 per cent since threshing this
week, when his wheat yield was made
known. (e Is Justified In doing It.
His land and all of the wheat land In
the county has proved Its virtue this
year.
Hereafter there will be no alarm at
temporary drought. The matchless
soil of Umatilla county will stand the
test. It requires but little moisture
to yield enormously.
As a result of this test applied by
nature, the greatest of all alclMyrnlffts,
the price of wheat land In this coun
ty lias actually advanced. It is worth
more In dollars and cents than ever.
The knowledge that it will pass
through the fires of a rainless season
and yield handsome returns, Is worth
a million dollars to the county. -
PENDLETON THE BEAUTIFUL.
Five years from now Pendleotn will
be so changed In appearance that
those who know It at ")Mnt will
scarce recognize It as the same place.
For the town Is starting upon an era
of Improvement that Is destined to
make It a different city.
In the past Pendleton has been too
busy to make all the Improvements
Justified In a town of Its size and
wealth. It has been a new town and
springing up ns It did from amidst the
sagebrush it Is not surprising that the
aesthetleal side was neglected for the
moment. The rancher breaks the sod
upon his claim before he paints his
house or sets out a flower garden.
But Pendleton Is now rast the pio
neer stage and the day for Improve
ment is at hand. The start was made
when the streets in the business sec
tion were paved. Since then other
betterments have followed naturally.
This fall will see the completion of
h-vee Improvements, of the city hall
and the extension of the sewer sys
tem to the 'west end of town.
Five years from now Pendleton will
have a mountain water supply, a city
park, a beautiful cemetery .fine driv
ing streets and public buildings that
will be shown with pride to visitors In
the city. In the residence sections the
homes will be better cared for be
cause the spirit of Improvement will
be In the air. Lawns will be prettier
than now. old fences will 'be removed,
concrete walks will be seen every
where ,and the sides of the street In
the residence districts will be parked.
It is needless to say that these
changes will make the town a better
place In which to live. They will
make It an ideal residence town for it
already has the climate. After a few
years wealthy eastern Oregon people
will not go to Portland to live. In
stead of that the more fortunate fam
ilies of western Oregon will come here
to dwell In a town where they may
have the benefits of good air and sun
shine as God Intended they should.
PREMATURE REJOICING.
There has been a good deal of mild
rejoicing In a certain class of newspa
pers lately over the alleged or reported
failure of the three-cent fare regime
that under Mayor Tom L. Johnson's
leadership was put Into effect a few
weeks ago In Cleveland, says the Ore
gon Dally Journal. But this felicita
tion of the organs of combined capital
ism that Is Inclined to become over
hearing may be premature. Consider
able chuckling, speaking figuratively,
has been Indulged In over the fact
that for the month of May the Cleve
land Municipal Traction company
showed a deficit of $50,000. So fail
ure of the three-cent fare theory and
the downfall of Johnson was gleefully
predicted in many editorial columns.
This may happen yet, but such a
result Is not as certain as some peo
hope. In May the company was
struggling with a big strike and gen
eral business depression. ' In June the
deficit was not half so much. The
president of the company predicted
last week that there would be no de
ficit .that the balance would be about
even for July. At this rate it will not
take many months to wipe out that
$75,000 of deficit and have a balance
on the right side of the ledger.
The effect of the redurtlon has
been to Increase the traffic already
to the extent of 100,000 passengers a
day. And as business 'continues to
pick up It may be expected that the
revenues of the company will increase.
So It looks as If the three-cent fare
experiment might not fail, after all.
Tom Johnson Is not only a "stayer"
In a fight, but he is a good business
man besides. It may be his turn to
crow next.
WHY WE ARE LOSING SOUTH
AMERICAN TRADE.
In answering the question, "why is
Europe robbing us of our South Amer
ican trade?" Emerson Hough In Suc
cess magazine, says:
Because we are thoughtless as to
our transportation. Because on a
great deal of our products we pay six
times as much for freight as we need
to pay. Because we laud traction,
with all Its friction, with all Its wastp
against water transportation, which
has a free right of way, which has no
rails to be removed, and no large sal
ary list to pay. Because we use only
steam where we might employ elec
tricity and gasoline and the winds of
heaven and those mighty rivers flow
ing steadily to the sea.
We all because we pit politics
against statesmanship; because we pit
sectionalism against nationalism; be
cause we pit state rights against the
Monroe doctrine; because we do many
other wholly foolish and absurd things
which make parts of our wholly fool
ish and absurd reasons for pot devel
oping the natural and foreordained
transportation of this lavishly provid
ed country. In short, we do this be
cause we have never learned that
water runs down hill, and because we
have never noticed on the map, or
anywhere else, that our streams run
down from our producing regions
from the places where we raise wheat,
coal. Iron, livestock, and the like all
manner of heavy freight.
Colonist rates from all points in the
east to all points In Oregon become
effective September 1, and remain in
force for two months. Every citizen
of Pendleton should see that their
friends in the east are made acquaint-
Is Pe-ru-na Useful
for Catarrh?
Should a list of the ingredients of Pe
runa be submitted to any medical ex
pert, of whatever school or nationality,
he would be obliged to admit without
reserve that each on of them was cf
undoubted valuo in chronic catarrhal
diseases and had stood the test of many
years' experience in the treatment of
such diseases. THESE CAN EE NO

ment of catarrhal diseases; brings to
the home the scientific skill and knowl
edge of the modern pharmacist; and
last but not lenst.brings to the home the
vast and varied experience of Dr. Hart
man, in the use of catarrh remedies, and
in the treatment of catarrhal diseases.
The fact is, chronio catarrh is a dis
ease which is very prevalent Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one of chronic
catarrh. It may be of the nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the na
ture of the disease. The only trouble
is the remedy. This doctor has tried
to cure them. That doctor has tried
to prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BEING ANY RELIEF.
Dt. Hartman'8 ioa is that a catarrh
remedy can be made on a large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be made
honestly, of the purest drugs and ol
- the strictest uniformity. His idea is
that this remedy can be supplied di

Sawmill Rums.
A. M. Slocum's sawmill, located near
the headwaters of Willow creek was
destroyed by fire Tuesday night, says
the Heppner Gazette.
The loss Is estimated by Mr. Slocum
at $8000 with no Insurance.
The mill crew was awakened at
about 11 o'clock at night by the fire,
which was already beyond control.
It is not known how the fire got
started. Everything being very dry,
the flames spread rapidly to the lum

Including all the lumber In the yard,
was completely destroyed.
