By the thousands they are fly ing. In the night I hear them cry ing. In a wild triangle dying, Calling, calling to their mates;; All the wild geese southward go- ! Ing, Where the Jocund winds ar- ' blowing, ; Happy masters of their fates! ! But who called them? Who was bringing To the Far North thoughts of winging? To the silence sounds of singing Did the scent of roses clinging To some mighty censer swing ing. Purple-flaming, Incense fling ing. Woo them to resistless winging Mad, Indeed, from sea to sand? Did they willing go, or reckon All the weary miles of bracken Did the white magnolia beckon With Its softly sensuous gleams? Lustily they dare to follow Throat of bluebird, flight of swallow. Steering straight past hill and hollow, To a foolish land of dreams. By the thousands they are fly ing. ' : ; ; i In the night I hear them cry- Ins. On my restless pillow lying, Calling, calling .to their mates; All the wild geese southward go- ing Where the Jocund winds are blowing, Where the softest seas are flow- ing, Happy masters of their fates. Catherine Postelle. . TOLSTOI. When Tolstoi died at Astopova Sun day the Russian peasants lost their greatest friend and the world a re markable man. Born of the nobility and educated to be one of the upper circle in the czar's domain. Tolstot could not tolerate such a life. He sar that the footing upon which the no bility stood was but a crust and be neath, it the Russian people strug gled In misery and dispalr.. He for a time partook of the court life in 8t- Petersburg. He soon saw the In justice and the wrong that was foster ed nnder the rule of that despotic gov ernment. For many years Tolstoi devoted himself to an effort to better the life of his people. At heart he waa a peasant. He suffered with them in their sorrows and their poverty. He cried out with them against the cruelty .nd wrong Inflicted upon them. And he was heard. When his publications were suppressed in Rus sia he sent them abroad. His books were published in England and in this country and everywhere they aroused Indignation over the conditions exist ing In Russia. His words found their way back to that dark empire and they have served to relieve the gloom. The powers that be in Russia have listened to Tolstot. They have not done so openly for they denounced him and at times were upon the point of sending him into exile. But they - dared not do It. They knew his place In the hearts of the peasantry and the authorities feared to touch him. They feared that If they made a mar tyr out of the old count they would tart a conflagration that would ' brra their structure down. Tolstoi cannot be properly Judged "by the standards of this country. To - the average man he was an eccentric Individual and half crary. But his books show a most remarkable mind. They show Tolstoi to have had a wonderful Insight Into human nature the noblest of impulses and the pow er to express his thoughts with ter itfle force. He will go down Into History as a treat character, and as one who served his people with sin Those who like to see development work carried on In eastern Oregon rejoice at the completion of the Furnlsh-Coe dam. It marks the com pletion of a valuable project and a project that promises to be one of the most successful private projects In east ern Oregon. Mav more worlc of t!m 8,rt be underta- ; .

THE LAXD OF THE STORY BOOKS At evening when the lamp Is lit Around the fire my parents sit They sit at home and talk and sing And do not play at anything. Now, with my little gun, I crawl All in the dark along the wall And follow round the forest track Away behind the sofa back. There In the night, where none can spy, All In my hunter's camp I lie And play at books that I have read TID. it la time to go to bed. These are the hills, these are the woods. These are my starry solitudes. And there Is the river, by whose brink The roaring Hons come to drink. I see the others far away, As If in flrelit camp they lay, And I. like to an Indian scout. Around their party prowled about. So when my nurse comes In for me Home I return across the sea And go to bed with backward looks At my dear land of story books. Robert Louis Stevenson. From an examination paper submit ted In a local school we learn that an Indian baby Is known as a "porpoise" and an Indian's wife Is called a saasli And yet some folks think there's no fun in teaching schooL- Pittsburg- Oasette-Tlmes. It is so easy for us to believe what SISTERS OF MUSIC. "Who sings?" said the spirit of music And smiled on her peers. "Sweet sorrow, sing thou." Sorrow answered, "I cannot for tears." "Bright hope, give a tongue to the poems I read in thine eyes. Hope answered, "My thoughts are all clouded And lost In the skies." "Then, Joy, put thy mouth to the bu gle. A n Ue for my sake!" Calm creature, she sleeps In the sun ' shine And will not awake. But hush: A soft sound stealeth on ward Like the flight of a dove. Ah, I find that the song that is sweetest Conies ever from love! Barry Cornwall. ITGIIT OLD VERMONT. . Battle Creek Enquirer: The En quirer knows what kind of men com pose the lower house of the Vermont state legislature. They are snarly, skinny old men wh look as though they enn tell you right off sharp that there isn't any Santa Claus but your own pa. And they are going to tax all the Christmas trees that come out of Vermont, where most of the Christ mas trees now come from. Snarly, skinny old men who kn:iw so much about Santa Claus and so little about Christmas trees that they would try to tax something that wouldn't exist if It was taxed. The Idea of a taxed Christmas tree is as absurd as a Santa Claus who collcets pay from little children. The Vermont plan happens to be uncon stitutional, but it would serve the legislature right If it could go ahead with its schemes and lose Its tax on its Christmas trees. RHEUMATISM PURIFYING TEE BLOOD THE ONLY FESHAKENT CUBE No case of Rheumatism was ever etired except by a thorough purifica tion of the blood ; just as long as the blood remains charged with ferment ing uric acid poison, the painful dis ease will continue. The pains and aches of Rheumatism are simply su perficial effects of the i:npurit;e3 in the circulation, and sometimes may be temporarily relieved by ths appli cation of plasters, liniments, hot cloths, etc. But the person who trifles with this dangerous disease by de pending on local treatment alone, is certain to pay for the mistake with constant suffering later on. S. S. S. cures Rheumatism in the only way it is possible to cure the disease. It goes down into the blood, and re moves the uric acid from the circula tion, so that the nerves, bones, mus cles and joints are lubricated and fed with nourish ing elements instead of being continually ir ritated and in flamed with the sharp, uratlc i tnpurity, When S. S. S. has cleansed and purified the blood, the pains and aches cease, all inflammation disappears, stiffened muscles are made pliant, and every troublesome symptom of Rheumatism is permanently corrected.
