A country life is sweet!
In moderate cold and heat,
To walk in the air how pleas

And every meadow's brow;"
So that I say, no courtier may
Compare with them who
clothe in gray.
And follow the useful plow.
They rise with the morning lark
And labor until almost dark.
Then, folding their sheep,
they hasten to sleep
While every pleasant park
Next morning is ringing with
birds that are singing
On each green," tender bough.
With what content and mer

Some day the people will see the
matter in this light and they will make
a general practice of paying the ex

absurd to allow private Interests to
do so and then expect unprejudiced

IT SHOULD I tUX FREE.
The use of private money to in
fluence political campaigns is the
cause of much of the trouble that
infests fhls country. Leave the cur
rent of political- action free to take
its own course and all will be well
We have an .intelligent, patriotic
citizenship and left to Itself it would
solve the problems with comparative
ease.
But the current is not allowed to
run free, following natural lines.
There are always interests that want
things to go in a certain way because
they think it will be beneficial to
them and they are willing to pay large
sums of money to turn the current in
that direction. When skillfully used
their money becomes a very effective
political agency. ( Money is the breath
of life to a political campaign. II
brings out the speakers, the man
agers, workers, press agents and the
brass bands. It has turned the tide
during more than one great national
campaign.
It Is not right for the people to
allow private interests to finance the
presidential electlpn. It is a public
affair and the people themselves
through action of congress should
meet the expense. It can be done
very easily. Simply let congress vote
a sum of money to each of the great
parties for use in placing the merits
of" their respective candidates before
Is the new world going to teach the
old how to enjoy life and incidentally
how to spend money? A writer in
the April Issue of the World's Work
thinks so and dwells us, follows upon
the contamination of France:
Franco Is becoming Americanized.
There is noticeable, throughout the
country, a growing appetite for lux
ury, an increasing use of those aids
to the comfort of living which until
five years ago Frenchmen of the mid
dle class considered far and away be
yond their means but which the av
erage American of equal station has
long counted among the common ne-
cirsities of life.
Bathrooms, electric lights, tele
phones, steam heated apartments,
musical instruments, and labor sav
ing appliances In the kitchen have,
until very recently, not been deemed
adjuncts to a comfortable existence
by a Frenchman of the. bourgeois
class. Among the middle class in
France, the rent ordinarily is reck
oned at one tenth the. total Income,
while in America ft is the custom In
our cities to spend one sixth or even
one fourth merely to keep a roof
over our heads.
But recently, in many of the pro
vincial cities, apartment houses hove
been erected that are equipped with
elevators, bathrooms, and heatins
appliances and that compare favor
ably with American standards. These
arartments rent for $800 to $1,000 a
year and the demand far exceeds the
present supply.

VOTES FOR WOMEN
The following letter is pertinent to
the case in Oregon:
"Mothers, Fathers, and All Good Cit
lzens:
"A constitutional amendment giv
ing the suffrage to women is to be
voted on November 5, 1912.
"Mothers Our duty is to take care
of the home and the child, but, we
cannot raise good children unless we
can control the conditions surround
ing the home.
"The vote lias to do with the cost
of living, sanitation, food supply, ed
ucation and moral conditions affect
ing our young people. Big- organiza
tions are making vast profits from
commercialised vice we and our
children are the victims. Mothers,
beseech the men you know to give you
the vote to protect the home,
"Fathers Remember your daugh
ters, they must make a living; condi
tions are hard for them. Give the
girl as fair a show as the boy. Pro
tect your daughters by giving them
the vote.
"Citizens Put it Into the hands of
the many for it is Just and it Is pro
gressive. It doubles the power for
good. Thousands of women desire It
and realize their need of it.
"Vote for the amendment giving
women the suffrage and Insure good
government In Oregon."
If you are not a suffragist nor yet
an anti-suffragist, there Is hope for
you. It was the antl-antls that swung
into line in Washington when the
women turned to the house-cleaning
of the state. ' So, though' the antls
may think them neutral, when the
amendment ppsses, the suffragists de
clare they will swell their ranks with
the entire number of "antl-antls."
WHEX YOU ARIJ'SAFE.
It's easy to be boasting when all your
ventures pay;
It's easy to be cheerful when good
things come your way;
It's easy to speak proudly to every
one you meet,
Except when you are feeling the
bruises of defeat.
It's easy to talk bravely when danger
is not near;
It's easy to have courage when there
is naught to fear;
It's easy to be boasting when you are
safe ashore, ,
That you hear on!y music when angry
billows roar.
It's easy to cry "Coward" when you
have not been tried
At him who runs from danger, for
getting manly pride; '
It's easy to be telling how fearless
you would be
When all is peaceful tound you, as
far as you can see.
Now is the time to get rid of your
rheumatism. Tou can do it by apply
