ALL HF.CAUSK OP TWO LEGS. TRE MOTHER'S REWARD. A successful mother (fighting both heredity and individual bias) is a more important factor in a municipal ity than any merely successful man In it;; much more Important, were she but maje to realize it, says a writer in the Atlantic Monthly. For motherhood is a thing apart, "a distinct and individual creation; different from anything else God ever thought of," said, in all reverence, an American preacher. Her position has in it all the tragedy of life-long isolatiik!) ' :n tne performance of her work; all the pathos of vast expendi ture of vitality with no personal re ward. The millionaire railroad official,, once an office boy, gets his reward for tremendous labor, in power and money, the scientist gets his In the world's rec.'giiitiin of his accomplish ed work. The mother's reward is spiritual, and li-s only in the work Itself, for she has not the stimulus of an audi ence, and f"W Indeed are the children who recognize their mother's strug gle. th"ir mother's s-icrif.ces. As to her I-ive. they arec-pt it as they the air they breathe; and who of us stops to thank oxygen and ni foeer; f"r fnmblriing so convenient ly for our benefit? There Is a pathetic hopelessness about many mothers. One so often hears them wearily say, "I've given up my whole life for years to my children, and yet it seems to have failed. They are not as I meant them to be. nor as I hoped that they would .e. What is wrong? I wish someone would help me." It is suggested, in all humility and tenderness, that there are several things going amiss in the human gar den. In the first place, It takes some thing besides feminine hearts to man age men and the offspring of men; it takes feminine brains, every wis-dom-Upped arrow in a woman's quiver. Nine times out of ten, women put too much emotion, and not enough Judgment, Into both wifehood and motherhood. Everything has com bined for centuries to bring this about. Much of the discontent of the pres ent day among women is based on the fact that they do not yet realize that their life tasks are not properly mere. 1 emotlonad at all, but pre-eminently Intellectual. A howling. Jostling, uncontrollable crowd gathered in front of a Spokane store this week, crowding each other, fighting for a front place, elbowing their way through the jam of people and taking chances on being crushed to death all because a merchant had placed two living models in the win dow, dressed in the new dlrectoire gowns, exposing to view a portion of the wearer's legs. Finally this mob of people become such a nuisance that it was dispersed by the police and the merchant was forced to take his living models out of the window out of sight of the depraved public. And all of this In the year of our Lord, 1908, and all of It caused by two human legs. Because the vulgar new gown, call ed the directolre, which originated with the demi-monde in Paris, ex hibits the lower limbs of the wearer, incased In glove-fitting under gar ments, the mob goes frantic over It and people of refined tastes talk about it and sedate old men and wo men dare to take a sly squint in that direction when it is on display. How silly It all seems when we think of it in a sober manner. The human legs are nothing new. They are as old as the human body and everybody "knows what they look like, what they are made of, how they are attached, and how they work. There Is nothing new about them. People go to theatrical performan ces and w itness whole choruses of wo men in tights and think nothing of It. Bare arms and low-necked dresses are so common that nobody pays any heed to them. Peak-a-boo waists, transparent gowns and other cool and practical garments are not "startling" any more, and it is surprising that the fool public should go into a spasm of curiosity at the sight of a pair of legs incased In tights, and seen only through the opening in the front of a gown. But the most surprising feature of this disgusting spectacle is that the president of the Spokane Chamber of Commerce should be the merchant to thus appeal to the baser sentiments of the base public. It Is really a glimpse at the Inside sentiment of the leading' commercial spirits of this commercial age. "Any thing for the money" is the motto. IT PAYS TO STICK TO IT, The story told by the East Oregon Ian yesterday concerning the success of W. P. Temple of this city as a wheatralser, contains a lesson for every young man, whether In the farming Industry or In other lines of Work. It pays to stick to what you are doing. If you have chosen a given calling, it pays to follow it to the limit, to make the most of It, to de velop it fully, to "work it out" as ALL RUN DOWN.

If there is a spark of personal pride or enthusiasm or love of home In us, the coming district fair should sur- ass everything of the kind ever wit nessed in eastern .Oregon. This has been an exceedingly dry season, farm ers have been discouraged and every thing pointed to a crop shortage. Now that the results of harvest are known and the yield Is almost nor mal, in the face of all these unfavor able circumstances, we should be proud enough of old Umatilla county make an exhibit of her resources that will be In keeping with her worth and stability. Now Is the opportunity for Echo and Hermiston to "make good." They have said that they nre able to raise everything In abundance from peanuts to pumpkins, and now let us show the "Missourians" who will at tend the district fair that you can d. it. The newspapers have boasted and blowed and talked about you and have called the attention of the world to yonr resources and opportunities. Now let us "make good." There should be a fine exhibit of irrigation products from the west end of the county. Every imaginable pro duct that has been grown should be In the west end booths at the fair. No matter if it is but the one and only specimen grown, if you have any ex. traordlnary product, bring it in. Because or the enormous amount of free advertising which you have received, people from all parts of thb country will expect something from you In the way of an agricultural and horticultural exhibit. The East Ore gonian knows that you have the stuff. You can make a showing if you will and if you do not, a whole lot of people who have followed your ca reer In the newspapers with Intense Interest and enthusiasm, will be dls appointed In you and your country. Everybody will look for the west end booths. Mr. Harrlman can afford to spond a month In Oregon on a summer va cation. ' The annual report of the Southern Pacific in California, which has Just been Issued, shows that that system made him a profit of $8,809,- 016.60 in the past year and that ths iittle old Central Pacific yielded a profit of $6,653,184.80, making a grand total of profits for Mr. Harrl man and associates from the two sys tems amounting to $15,382,801.30 for the year. This does not include prof its from the Southern Pacific in Ore gon, the O. R. & N the Oregon Short Line nor the Union Pacific. It Is hoped that the annual reports from Walter Wellman says that Hryan Is more in favor with the masses or the people than ever. Well, he has been trimming up his doctrine to suit the public taste for a number ot years. As fast as the people would look with disfavor on one of his an nounced policies, he would abandon It and try something new. So now, after 12 years experimenting, he should be able to announce a winning platform. We shall see. TODAY. Every new day has its dawn, Its soft and silent eve. Its noontide hour of bliss or bale Where fore should we grieve? Why do we heap huge mounds of years Before us and behind. And scorn the little days that pass Like angels on the wind? Each turning round a small, sweet face As beautiful as near; Because it Is so small a face We will not see it clear; We will not clasp it as It files And kiss its lips and brow; We will not bathe our wearied souls In Its delicious now. And so It turns from us and goes Away in sad disdain, Though we would give our lives for It, It never comes again. Yet every new day has Its dawn, Its noontide and Its eve; Live while we live, giving thanks He will not let us grieve. Dinah Maria Mulock Cralk.
