The girl who works at your si ile if you don't watch out will forge ahead of you. Honest, now Girls are steadier, as a rule, than boys. They are more de- pemtiMe. They do their work in better form. They are prompt and neat. They can be trusted. They do not loaf. They are conscientious. They are accom- moJating. They have pleasant ways. The girls do not smoke. They do not drink. They do not gamble. In plain words, the moral character of girls, partly be- cause society holds them to a severe -standard, is higher than that of boys, as a rule. Is It not' so? Many a young man thinks character is an unimportant factor in business. Don't you make that erron Edwin A. Nye. A IXXTBALL CASE. Much comment has been caused by the action of the University of Cal ifornia In prohibiting Captain-elect Bell of the football team, from play ing because of the effect the game has upon his nervous system. Bell, who Is Berkeley's star player, .suf fered from nervous prostration at the close of the season last year. Commenting upon the faculty's ac tion the Evening Telegram says: This is a case of common-sense re striction In college athletics worthy oi remark. It Is the more encourag ing because it Is but one of several Instances within the past two or three years which denote that college au thorities are making athletics sub servient to the general purpose of college life a sort of reform that we were sadly in need of at one time. As the public is given to understand, this young man, Bell, Is the one man whose presence on the team Is the best assurance of victory. We may conclude, at least, that any other man could be spared better than he. We are assured, too, that with the stu dent body and faculty at Berkeley, there is Just as strong a desire for victory on the football field this fall as there ever has been In any former year. Put the development and the welfare of the Individual man must have first place, as it should have. In other words, the college is engag ed in making men, rather than foot ball players; athletics are made a means to an end, and not the end Itself. There is a general manifestation of this sort of spirit In higher education al institutions; and the effect of it Is wholesome. It denotes a more healthful and widespread benefit from c"1Ul-- athletics than we have hither to realized. It marks the end of col lege sport-madness, about which wo were so deeply concerned but a few years ago. AliSl RI) TAX ON CATTLE. The Canadian summer Is to short for the thorough fattening of cattle, and then-fore many head of Canadian rattle are brought Into the United States, fed through the summer and shipped abroad. But there is a duty of nearly 30 per cent to be paid when they are Imported. Without this duty many more cat tle would be brought In and much more pofitable use would be made of cur pastures, corn and hay. English consumers are threatening to remove existing legal restrictions and Import theso cattle and feed them on Eng lish farms, and this may be the re sult. Speaking of this situation, the New York Journal of Commerce re cently said: Duties on raw materials are an ab nurdlty in a manufacturing country, and the rule has a wide application. What would become of the great rvanufacturlng Industries of England 1' ehe were to put a tax upon the lm- portation of cotton, wool, hides and skins, furs and othe materials? We are trying to build up these In dustries In which these are used, and yet we Impose duties upon most of them, except cotton, of which we raise a surplus for export, and silk, which we do not raise at all. . We make bather goods for export in spite of Hie duty on hides, but the duty on wool prevents the manufacturing in dustry from growing so as to supply our own wants. There is no sense in a duty on live cattle for a country that can produce them as cheaply as any other and that makes a business of exporting megt. I; equally absurd to put a duty on wheat when we export both the grain and the flour made from It. There are economy and gain for both capital and labor In turning ma terials Into manufactured products, whether for domestic or foreign mar kets, instead of exporting them In the raw state or making It costly to im port them for our own use. T1IK HAPPY FARMF.H. Solon O. Thatcher, writing In Max well's Talisman, daws this contrast Kttween the state of mind and other rewards of the farmer and the man who speculates or otherwise makes a living by his wits: "At the bottom of many a dazzling fortune lie dishonor, Infidelity, false hood, robbery, betrayal of a friend and the wreck of the possessions of the unwary. What the farmer gains Is laden with sweet sunshine, the zephyrs of spring and the fostering love of all nature's ministry. So that when one takes account of the com pensations, mental and spiritual, that come to him whose dally bread comes from honest toil, over him who lives by his wits, or ts the Robin Hood of society, the balance throws high into the air the one who lives by spesu latlon or adventure." Last night the Pendleton firemen had another difficult blaze to handle and they once more acquitted them selves with the greatest credit. By confining the fire last night to the Alta house and stable they did about all that human power could do. By their work last night they sustained their splendid record and again earned the thanks of the community. Every big fire Is a strong argument for a gravity water system for Pen dleton. If Pendleton has a firebug It is time for him to migrate. THE APPLE OP EDEN NOT IX IT. You find charred pears in the kitch en heaps of middle Europe, where the lake villages used to be. These rem nants date back to the apple, and so far as we can discover the pear was the very first one of this wonderful family to become of Importance to human beings. In fact, It seems probable a crook able pear, was In the possession of our ancestors a good while before there were eatable apples or even straw berries, plums and possibly even cherries. But the whole pear family was just surely working up toward civilized a.id .garden conditions as human be ings themselves. Evolution has brought us along together, with pret ly marly equal step, and now It looks as if our future development was to be nearly as close as our past. E. P. Powell. NO MORE, WHISKERS. Six of the sven men In this year's crop of presidential candidates have smooth-shaven countenances The seventh that's Mr. Taft has a mustache. . The era of bearded poll tics, which began with Abraham Lin coin In 1861, and continued, with oply one interruption, until the end of Urnjamln Harrison's administration In 18 93, is past. " What is true of presidents and ..ould-be presidents is equally trtift of congressmen. Of 103 photographs of members of congress published In a contemporary last December, only 10 had beards. In public life whisk ers have gone out, rather than come out. Nowadays, hair Is not a facial asset. Three of the seven candidates of this year do not have any even on their heads. We have gone back to ttv? Roman-like physiognomy of Washington and the early fathers. New York Tribune. WHAT TO DO WHEN MARRIED. Dorothy Dlx says that if a husband Is to be perfect In the eyes of his wife he must abjur aJl his old friends and relatives at the altar and take hert Instead. He must never make an en. gagement without first consulting his wife. He must never find out that she Is a silly creature, but always regard her as deep and Inscrutable. He should tell his wife often that she Is handsome, and has a magnifi cent figure. If his wife Is stout he must prefer stout women; If scrawny he must admire thin women, but It would be better If he never noticed any woman at all but herself. He must always call his wife's tem per "nerve." He must have no person al taste or whim that anyone around the house should be bound to con sider. Above all, he must know how to make money. And money. And more money. THE EYES THAT LOVE. Thank god for eyes that smile, Th'ey brighten so, the darkest, bleakest day, Beam In the heart that opened long to guile, Lighten the shadow, chase the cloui away. Where'er they gleam a hope Is born ngnln: And in them lies a phophesy of rest. Of peace and Joy and sweet sur cease from pain. Thank 0d for eyes that weep. 'TIs sweet to feel we need no mourn alone, To. know another with our soul doth keep Its bitter vigil when the light has flown. 'Tis theirs to bring a solace perfect, pure To do the work of angels sent to bless; And In our deepest sorrow to Insure Our stricken lives from utter wretchedness. But most for eyes that love We thank the God, their mission Is so great: No depths too low, no heights too far above For them to touch, 'tis theirs to compensate All loss, all pain, and theirs to, deepen each New Joy to bliss, a bliss so strange nnd rare Men speak it not, but In their rapture reach The very gates of heaven, resting there. From September Farm Journal. trith. I am the Truth and I shall come at last; And from their shrines the shapes of clay I'll cast; Into the depths of dun old Gods I'll send; The rusted fetters of the world I'll rend; I'll break the clutch of Greed at throats of men. I'll be a Judge who must be answered then, By all betrayers of the people's weal, or shall the canopy of kings conceal The deed unjust or condemnation shed From him who has misspent his brother's bread. For I am Truth I am the Soul of Things. I am astir In storms; I am the wings Of lightning; the raptured reach of song; the blush Of the rose; the menace of the sea; the hush Of evening; the patience of the poor. I am of Brotherhood of Thinker Doer. I sire the seasons and tell the stars their way; I am the Final-Fact whom none gain say. Harry Murphy in the Oregonlan. THE NEW Ml'SICIAX. Silence your ancient music. Your dreams of a distant star; Give us a long of the life we live, A Song of the Things That Are! Sing of the white Sierras, Of the Gloucester fleet at sea, Of the great North's silent forests And the baking Florida key. Give us the railroad's rumble. The hiss of the forging steam, The shops by day and the mills by night, And the trolley's tortured scream. There you will find your heroes, There till the world shall end; The man who works for his children, And the man who dies for his friend. There does the prize await you, And not In a distant star. For the song that shall last forever, Is the Song of the Things That Are! Saturday Evening Post. A theory is all right until you at tempt to make It do a practical stunt.

Ingersoll today admitted that she hopes to hear from his spirit and that she is making efforts to com municate with the departed ognostlo through spiritualistic mediums, says a Xew Tork Item, Mrs. Ingersoll denies that she has been converted to spiritualism or that she believes In spirits, but says that if any spirits exist her husband's ex ists and wants to find out what she Is doing, She says she Is going to aid the spirit all she can. It Is known that several spiritual istic mediums have Importuned Mrs. Ingersoll to allow them to communi cate with the spirit of her departed husband and that several have pro fessed to have received communica tions from him. Mrs. Ingersoll brands these mediums as fakes but says her mind Is open to conviction as to the existence of spirits. She says If she were 'sure her husband's spirit Is waiting for her on the other side she would not care to live longer. ONE WAY TO GET FI NDS. One particular bale of Georgia cot ton is destined to become famous, a Savannah, Ga., dispatch carried by the Cnlted Press, says; "The first bale of 'factors cotton,' or that re. celved In the ordinary course of bus iness for this season, was bought to. day at the Savannah exchange by Murray M. Stewart for the Rryari democratic club. It was immediate, ly compressed, placarded and shipped to Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tam many Hall, Xew Tork. The placard announces that it Is the first bale and concludes: 'as surely as cotton Is king Bryan will be elected president.' The bale Is to be auctioned off In Tamma ny Hall and .the proceeds will be de voted to the Bryan campaign fund." IIALh DROPPED .".-() FEET.
