It will never pay to frown
When you're blue;
Fortune still may have a
crown
Made for you;
Don't expect to win men's pity
or to gain the strength
you need
By appearing heavy-hearted
you are far astray, In
deed, If you do.
When your woes are hard to
hear
Do not mope,
Do not seek a cellar where
You may grope;
Take a walk out in the sun
. ligrht, shun the corners
that arP murk;
Breathe the sweet air of the
hillside, then go whistling
back to work,'

EDISON'S NEW CAR.
Thomas A. E-lison has perfected his
storage battery electric street car
and if accounts of the same are to be
rtlied upon it will not be long until
the gasoline motor cars such as the
one now running between Pendleton
nd Umatilla will have to go upon
the shelf, being replaced by a better
car.
According to a story in the May is-
ue of Technical World magazine,
n began upon his storage bat- J
Ediso
tery car two years ago, just after he
had perfected a storage battery for
use on drays and delivery wagons In
3few York City. The car which he
made has been subjected to all sorts
o! arduous use and has been found a
complete success. .
"The storage battery car is cap- ;
able of running one hundred and fifty
miles without recharging at a cost of
one cent a mile, and of climbing any
ordinary grade," says the Technical
TVorld. "It saves twenty-five per
cent on the cost of line construction,
for there are no overhead wires, no
poles, no transmission cables and no
track bonding. There is also a ma
terial saving in the cost of power
plant, too; for on a trolly line the
power plant must be large enough
to move the maximum amount of
traffic, which continues fo? only a
short time; the rest of the day there
l a large surplus of power that is
not used. The power station for
charging storage batteries can be run
it Its most economical gait every
hour in the twenty-four,
"The greatest saving is in the cost
of operation. The Edison patent
storage battery car weighs only from
one-half to two-thirds as much as the
ordinary trolly car of the same ca
pacity, yet the Edison car Is the
stronger. As it costs one hundred
Jollars per ton per year to run the
Average street car on the average
Rtreet railroad it may be seen that
this saving Is of some consequence."
The Edison car should be especi
ally valuable for interurban Bervlce.
This because the storage battery cars
would do away with the necessity of
trolly equipment which Is an especi
ally strong item of expense on Inter
urban roads. Perhaps in a short time
the Edison cars will be in general use
on interurban electric lines and It
will not be surprising if they replace
the gasoline cars now being used by
Ihf Harriman system.
THE LAND OF LIFE.
Is the climate of the arid and seml
arld west peculiarly adapted to the
aevtlopment of men of physical and
mental vigor? There are many rea
sons for believing this to be the case.
It is a fact often remarked upon that
children reared. In eastern Oregon are
larger and stronger than those reared
In the humid Willamette valley. Foot
twill coaches In the colleges of the
northwest look for their most prom
ising materia! from among the stu
dents who hall from cast of the Caa--rad
mountains.
Dr. E. L. Munson, a writer In the
May Pacific Monthly takes the view
that the climate of the arid country
Is good for both physical and men
tal development. He has the follow
ing to say along this line:
"And this stimulant influence of
fine weather and climate upon the
mind and body, like a dose of medi
cine, is Immediate. A clear, breezy,
sunny day in spring or fall, especially
after a rain has reduced the atmos
pheric humidity, brings every New
Englander out of doors to forget his
troubles; children shout at their play,
and even the dogs bark and scamper.
Such brilliant, bracing days are the
rule and not the rare exception In
the favored West.
"Hence, reasoning from the fore
going we would naturally expect to
find the character of the typical Am
erican of the arid West what in fact
ropular opinion really recognizes It
to be cheerful rather than gloomy;
optimistic rather than that dubious
frame of mind which hopes for the
best and expects the worsf; forceful
and courageous, rather than shrink
ing; initiative and self-reliant rathe
than dependent on precedent and
custom; progressive rather than con
servative; frank rather than secre
tive and suspicious; generous rather
than the opposite; charitable rather
than critical; Impulsive rather than
cautious; broad-minded rather than
narrow and bigoted; Impatient of
senseless convention, hypocrisy and
sham; a friend to value and a foe to
fiaT, playing the great game to win,
but playing It fairly."
This is the country In which to
I've. It is the land of sunshine and
of life.
From appearances about two
thirds uf the population of this place
will get counted. The other one third
will be passed up by the enumerators
because they could not be listed the
i first time the enumerators called. As
ja result Pendleton will not make the
j showing Its population really justl-
Ties.
More paved and macadamized
streets, permanent cross walks, more
concrete walks with more parking and
more street grading would help make
this a better place In which to live.
A new theatre would also help the
situation.
It is said that Taft proposes to
send a squadron of 21 battleships and
fr.ur armored cruisers around the
world Iti 1912. That is a good way to
find out whether or not our ships
are seaworthy.
In the increasing business Pendle-
lon is securing from its outside terri
tory mere is great opportunity for
progressive merchants. .
There is not much chance for the
"hookworm" while the "baseball bug
is busy.
Possibly the Washington-Oreeon
company has been waiting for Edi
son to develop his storage battery car.

PHILOSOPHY.
(Washington Post.)
Many questions are unasked be
cause of fear of the answer.
Bad pennies turn up heads just a
often as good ones.
The man who takes victory as a
matter of course makes the most ex
cuses in defeat.
A poor imitation of good manners
is better than none at -all.
Most women would rather wear an
unbecoming new dress than a becom
ing old one.
Man's most Inconspicuous part is as
a poor father-in-law.
Men sleep soundest when there are
unusual noises In the house.
People are laughed at most who
take it the worst
Prosperity soon gets to thing It has
been so always.

It's difficult to arouse a man's en

Of course women are a trifle vain,
but did you ever see a man pass

"How so?"
"He's proud of-his children. Why,

NEW YORK'S FIGHT.
"No TTncared-for Tuberculosis
In
New York state In 1915!"
This Is the watchward In the cam
paign for the prevention of tubercu
losis In the state of New York. "No
tuberculosis in 1920" Is the hope. How
the people of the Empire state have
rallied for the fight against this dis
ease In almost every city, village and
hamlet In that commonwealth In the
short space of two years Is a story
that will doubtless be of Interest to
the citizens of every other state In
the union, for the crusade against
consumption Is not confined to the
limits of any state or of any nation.
In the words of Prof. William H.
Welch, of Johns Hopkins University,
the leader of scientific medicine In
America, "The people have recogniz
ed their true foe In tubereuolsls and
are stirring to the combat through
out the civilized world." This is be
cause enlightened men and women
throughout the civilized world are
beginning to appreciate the full sig
nificance of Pasteur's words, "It Is
within the power of man to cause
all germ diseases to disappear from
the earth."
The striking thing about tubercu
losis is that while scientists have
known for a quarter of a century how
to cope with it and indeed a few of
our. larger cities have been successful
ly coping with it for the past twenty
years nevertheless the "civilized
world" has only just begun to stir It
self to a systematic combat. Already,
however. In the way of education
great strides have been made. He
would be held an Ignorant person who
should learn now for the first time
that tuberculosis Is a communicable,
and therefore a preventable, disease,
and that In most cases, If properly
treated in the early stages, it Is cur
able At least. It Is reasonably cer
tain that there are comparatively few
people in New York state today who
could not "back" the book" -and recite
for you these essential facts about tu
berculosis: Tuberculosis (or consumption)
causes more deaths than any other
single disease.
In the civilized world there are not
less than a million deaths each year,
or two a minute which are due to
this disease; in the United States this
scourge claims no less than 200.000
of our citizens annually, and In the
Empire state we sacrifice to it an av
erage of 16.000 lives each year, or one
every thirty minutes.
One third of all who die between
the ages of fifteen and forty-five, just
at the time when they are repaying to
society their debt for nurture and
education, die of tuberculosis. From

in 1920!" by John A. Kingsbury. In

April.
OHICIN OF PKJTAIL.
The report that the Chinese depart
ment of state affairs contemplates is
suing an order directing officials, sol
diers and police to give up the queue
and to wear their hair short recalls
that the queue was introduced Into
China by the Manchu dynasty nearly
three centuries ago, says the Japan
Mail. It is said to have been origin
ally suggested to the Manchus by their
sense of gratitude to the horse, that
animal having played a great part in
the Tartar conquests. In short, the
"pigtail" was a method of establish
ing a relationship between human be
ings and horses.

Every old. sore comes from gome kind of impurity in the blood. It remains
au oyoa, discharging place on tlia flesh because the circulation constantly de
posits lato tiie litres and tissues which surround tho spot, the infectious matter
with wl,icli the blood is contaminated. It is imposaiblo for tlio sore to heal wliilo
tiio Wood is in this impure state. S. S. S. heals old sores because it tna
greatest c! all Wood puriaors; it goes into tho circulation and removes the cause
from the blood. When the blood has bcon purined tliore la no longer any Inflam
matory imparl ;y or infectious matter to irritate the place, and nature causes a
certain and natural healing of the ulcer. It is all well enough to eiUcavor to
cleanse on old sore, or stop the itching, or absorb the discharge, with external
applications, but a cure can never be reached in this way, because such applica
tions do not reach the blood where the cause is locatod. S. S. Si. does uot simply
cauBe a scab to form over an old sore, but begiii.ili!3 at tho bottom it heals the
place permanently by building new tissue, and filling the .place with firm healthy
flesh. S. S. S. is a purely botanical remedy, being made cu'.iioly of roots herbs
and barks, each of which has a direct and lasting cfljet in removing impurities
and poisons from the circulation. Old people who have s tiio.e.l for years with a
chronic sore will find S. S. S. a most helpful tonic and sys.e.u builder iu counter
acting tho debilitating effects of the old ulcer. Special Ko!t on Hores and Ulcere
