Grant, O Olympians gods su

Not my wish .uid not my dream;
Grant me neither gold mat
shine?
Xor ruddy copper In the mines,
Nor power to wield the tyrant's
rod
And be a fool, and seem a god.
Nor precious robe with Jeweled

Splendid with sea-born purple

Nor silken vest on downy pil
low,
Nor hammock hard on heaving
billow;
But give all goodly things that

Good for the whole and best for
me.
My thoughts are foolish, blind
and crude;
Thou only knowest what is
good.

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.

"For several years I was in a run

these other systems will enable Mr.
Harrlman to extend his vacation four
or five days, at least.
TO ECHO AM) IIKK.MISTOX.
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.

Old gods avaunt! The rosy east Is
waking!
And In the dawn your shapes of clay
are shaking;
Ye broke mens hearts and now
your spells are breaking.
Over all lands a winged hope Is fly
ing;
It goes without reproof, without re
plying;
It bears God's courage to the dulled
and dying.
The rusted chain that bound the
world Is broken;
A new strange star Is pricking night
for token;
And the Great World Is waiting to
be spoken! '
