The ancient barn with its clap boards gray Has for well-nigh fifty years Sheltered its wealth of fragrant hay And wealth of golden ears. The swallows dart through the open door Just the same as In years gone by, When we rode around over the threshing floor. And trod out the wheat and rye. On rainy days oft a merry throng Of children gathered here, And with hunting eggs and games and song, The gloom gave way to cheer. In its lofty mows we often play ed. In the days of long ago, And peered 'neath the rafters half afraid, Lest some goblin lurked be low. Hail! dear old barn, 'neath thy sheltering eaves Sweet echoes dwell, and sing To my listening ear, and my heart receives Fond memories of youth's glad spring. Farm Journal. VOTE THE SCHOOL BOXDS. 'Tonorrow afternoon the taxpayers 3t Pendleton will be called upon to take the first step in a big move that Is underway and which If carried out 'will do much for the advancement of the city. Pendleton has come out of the Slough of Depression in which it floundered for several years. The ' way is now clear for better things. -There is prosperity ahead for the city If the people rise to the situation as they should. There is a million dollars worth of -building and construction work in sight for Pendleton If all goes well ' Half of this amount will be expended ' "by the state on the branch asylum and the other half million will be for various other improvements, some 'public and some private. First upon the list comes a new high school and -the completion of the Lincoln school. The bond election tomorrow will be the opening battle of the improvement campaign and much depends upon ' bow it goes. The defeat of the school bond Issue would be bad for Pendle tcn. It would take the heart out of those who are trying to build up the city and it would encourage certain men to go ahead and block other im provements. To a large extent the aame men who are opposed to a new 'high school will also be found oppos ing a new water system. It will not do to let Buch men take control of af fairs in Pendleton. During the past few weeks the need of a new high school and of the com pletion of the Lincoln school has been pointed out very thoroughly. A committee of ten -ffusiness men, bank ers and big tax payers inspected the high school and they said unanimous ly that the board is right in asking for a new building. The present structure is wholly unfit and It would be foolish to try to repair It or en large it. Against building a new high school a number of arguments have been drummed up. Some of them grew out of over-conservatism, some from narrowness of mind, some out of pro fessional jealousy, some from sting!- ness Psople who have not seen Ihe plans for the new building and know nothing about them are going around shouting that the plans arc not right. They are doing this because they din like the architect, Mr. Troutman. Eut ' it would be silly to listen to such ob jections as that. No archltct alive pleases everybody or ever will. .The school board is composed of five of the most substantial and capable men t In town. It li safe to say they hare used good Judgment with reference ' to architects. It Is also safe to say ' that, since they will be responsible for ther new building, they will see to it that it is properly constructed. As to the other arguments for and naalnst the school bond issue would be needless to discuss them here. They have been gone over very Tully during the past few weeks. It is now time for action and every qualified voter should be out tomor row afternoon. Those who want lYndleton to advance should vote so as to make advancement possible. No town can go forward by standing still. NOT VF.KY SW11T. Entirely Independent of the "war"' features the mobilization of a portion o' the army at San Antonio may re- . . ...in suit in good. The maneuvers m show something of the condition in which this country would find itself regulars would be mobilized on tne In the event a war should arise. It was originally announced that 20,000 Mexican border. Hut it appears from reports from Pan Antonio that mere are far from 20,000 soldiers there, instead there is something over 6000 enlisted men and some 500 otticeis. The remainder of the force consists og blank files. The national guard, if other companies are UKe me r d'.eton command, exists more in the ory than in reality. Tet the guard would be of great value in the event o;- need because it would be organiz es and equipped and there would be an abundance of recruits to fill the ngiments. Yet even at that this country is in no condition at all for a war and a war of any consequence would mean disaster for a time at least. TACt)MA STOPS TREATING. By a substantial majority the peo ple of Tacoma have approved of the on.i-tr.-itirnr ordinance. The result but goes to prove that In big cities ..:.d little the saloon business Is be ing placed upon a basis that is far different from that prevailing a few yiars ago. Henceforth the liquor business must be conducted on much the same lines as jther establish ments and it means that the revenues ot the saloonmen will be greatly re duced. In Tacoma the result Is be ing charged to the women who now have the right to vote In Washington. If the women did it then it will be ivteresting to note what the women of Walla Walla do to the saloons of that burg when the subject again comes up for consideration. If Pendleton Is to hold its own am ong the progressive tovns of eastern Oregon then the people must get busy. Tomorrow's election will be a good index as to what may be ex pected in the way of Improvement work. Every local businessman should be an active worker In the Commercial club and perhaps all will be In line after -the luncheon tomorrow even Irg. Day by day the chances for Am er'can Intervention in Mexico seem to grow more remote. At this time it looks like the maneuvers at San An tonio will be no fiercer than the bat tles that are fought at American Lake. Who will win, the Pessimists? the Progressives or THEY 1LAVE MADE GOOD. (Athena Press.) Tommy Bilyeu and Rex Barnett, two former Athena boys, have made good in the world of mechanical arts. Rex is at the head of a company in St. Louis, which is manufacturing an adjustable bed. invented by him, and which Is designed for use In hospitals That he is meeting with success is evidenced by the fact that one Port land capitalist took J20.000 worth of stock in the company. In a recent Issue of the Portland Oregonian ap peared a page advertisement setting f.rth the virtues of the Bilyeu Cash ier, a device ror counting cnange au tomatically. The machine Is manu factured in Portland and ha3 the re commendation of leading banks and department stores. Here is the suc cess it two young men that might be emulated by others of our acquain tance.

"If I could settle the competition urobiem In my business the way a youngster did the other day I'd be worth millions in It' few years," a Xew York merchant said. "This boy was in search of work and applloi? at an office where the sign 'Hoy Want ed' was displayed at the street en trance. He was a litle fellow and the manager told him he was o young for the place. But 'the young ster was persistent, said he was strong and well and knew he could do the work. In fact, he pleaded his cnw.e to well that the manager compro mised a little. " 'Pee here.' he said to the boy, 'you go out and come back in an hour.' If no other boy whose loukj I like better comes in within that time, the job's yours.' "The boy was game. He went down stairs, stood at the street entrance ror a moment and as he went past the 'Boy Wanted" sisn Just whisked it "ov er. Then he walked up and down tne block, ( keeping a sharp eye on the reversed sign. The minute the hour of probation was up he was at the manager's desk and was engaged, it was only after a week's successrul service that the little fellow's con science troubled him and he confess ed. New York Sun. ItEASOXABLE REQUEST. s It was a cold night. The traveler inquired at the only hotel In the little town if he could be lodged for the night, but was Informed that it was full up. "But you must ' give me some sort ot accommodation," said the stranger. "Surely you don't want me to sleep under the starry but chilly skies?" "Well," said the proprietor, "the best we can do is to make you up a bed in the passage and curtain it off for you." And so it was arranged. In the dark watches of the night the traveler awoke. A freezing draft chilled him and the sheet which had been hung up as a partition was blow ing merrily in the breeze. The trav eler rose and shouted for the land lord. "What is it " queried a voice from the stairhead. . "Please," said the stranger, .timidly, may I have a paper of pins to lock my bedroom door with?" The persistent plugger in advertis ing has always been the sure winner. CHICAGO KiERCiiAKT MAKES STATEMENT.

BUM FOISOM CURES A"great many so-called remedies for Contagious Blood Poisou are composed almost entirely of strong mineral ingredients. They seem to be compounded with the Idea th.it one poison will coun teract another provided the stomach and delicate portions of the system can withstand the effects of the strong treatment. These concoctions are intended to kill the poison in the system. In this article we want to tell you of S. S. S., a purely vegetable remedy for Contagious Blood Poison, a medicine that not only cures the disease, but one which from the first dose has a fine tonic effect upon the stomach and the entire system. Nor does S. S. S. attefnit to kill the germs within the system, but cures by REMOVING them from the blood which is absolutely the only way to cure the disease. It does not require any argument to establish the fact that a bloo disease can be cured only by a blood purifier; every one will admit tli truthfulness of this statement. The question of most importance there fore is, what medicine hfcs proven by actual results its superiority as . blood purifier? We claim this distinction for S. S. S., and otlcr as proc the fact that for more than forty years it has been sold under this cla'u: and the demand for it has steadily Increased, and we have thousand of testimonials from cured patients from all parts of the country. Contagious Blood Poison, as the name implies, is an infectiou blood taint which may be communicated from one person to another Its virus is of a most insidious nature, multiplying from an insignificar germ in the blood, until it becomes a thorough systemic poison. Ii first symptom is usually a tiny sore or pimple, but it rapidly spread: and in a short while the entire body gives evidence of the poison in tli blood. The mouth and throat ulcerate, glands in the groin swell, t!i hair begins to come out, copper-colored splotches appear on the bod and frequently running sores and ulcers break out on the flesh. A condition of such, serious nature requires proper treatmei!' Not only must the disease be driven out, but the system which 1 Deen weanenea Dy tne ravages of the ooison, must be built up before health can be restored. S. S. S. CURES CONTAGIOUS BLOOD POISON BY PURIFYING THE BLOOD. It goes into the circulation and removes the last trace of the infectious virus, acts with fine tonic effect on the stomach, bowels, kidneys and all portions of the system, and thus makes a perfect as well as lasting cure. S. S. S. is made entirely of roots, herbs and barks, each of which has a spe cific action on the system. Not a particle of mineral of any kind enters into the composition of this great medicine, b. S. S. is perfectly safe for any one to take, as mineral medicines do, it tones digestion easy. Thousands have Blood Poison by the use of S. S. it we will send you, without charge, a Home Treatment Book, whic: will giye you all necessary information for curing yourself at your cr home.
