To know life's fondest trust and feel no doubt. But unto those who bend be neath their burden Sometimes too heavy for the flesh to bear Comes in the hush the blessed, blessed guerdon Of hopeful trust in Him who heareth prayer. Had life no thorns we should not prize its roses; No shadow, we'd care little for the sun; It is the weary head that best reposes On its hard pillow, when the day is done. If in this life we met no wast ing sickness. We would not prize the jewel, precious health; And if we saw no poverty or weakness, What use could we have for unbounded wealth ? If we had drained no cup of longing, yearning, That friends would prize us dearly and to love, Where were the prize to us bo dear returning. The hopeful trust in Him who rules above?

It is a matter where the Interests of all, redmen and white, milling men and others are identical if the thing can only be seen. in its true light. It is time all should lay aside prejudices and suspicions and work In unison on a proposition that has possibilities of preat benefit for everybody. Tli'e Journal sees the true peril in the escape of Thaw and sets forth the danger in the fol Tlie Thaw lVril. lowing: "There are those who profess fear of consequences to follow if Harry K. Thaw is not recaptured. Evelyn Xesbit Thaw Is affrighted at thought of the harm he may do her son. Sundry judges and lawyers tremble over the prospect of personal vengeance Thaw may wreak on th'em. The public properly sympathizes with those whom the Thaw escape make afraid, but holds that there is a possibility that it has even more to suffer. If Thaw's future movements are to keep on tap the scarlet story of himself and Stanford White, if we are to be regaled afresh with accounts of the libertinism rampant through the careers of this pair by the re opening of a book that ought to re main forever closed, the Thaw escape is a real public calamity.

The tinge of autumn in the air Is further proof that Round-up time is approaching. There are good reasons for hope on the part of those who would like to see irrigation Chan ops for upon the Uma- I'matilla Itewrvation tilla reserva Irrigation. tion. Secretary Lane takes the view that even should the state water board rule adversely to the Indians in the case now before the board that action will not stand when the matter is taken before the federal courts. It will be remembered that the federal courts in similar cases in Montana and in Texas upheld the Indian rights and the supreme court of the United States sustained the decision, ruling that non use should not serve to jeo pardize a water right when the land in question is held in the name of the government, as Is still true with all the unpatented allotted land upon the Umatilla reservation. If the secretary's view is right, and incidentally it is the view of all law yers who are not retained to uphold the other side of the case, then there is no reason why the Umatilla reser vation should not some day be irri gated. It is a question of procedure more than anything else. There are two courses that appear open. The easier and simpler course looks to the irrigation of the low lands along the river, some 6000 acres. The other plan would be larger in scope and would look to the reclamation of a large portion of the reservation through use of stored or flood waters. If those on lands bordering the river wish to get water for the Irrigation of their allotments the way seems clear for them. If they will ask for their rights in the matter It will be remark able if they are not granted. However the benefits would be much greater if the project could be under taken upon a larger scale and the flood waters stored. In that way a much larger acreage would be water ed, the benefit to the community would be the greater and any possible injury to the local milling interests XI1)1 NODDY LAND.

BY THE SCISSORS SOME SUMMERS OF THE PAST. (Atlantic Monthly.) For those of us who are forced to spend most of our summers In cities there are a few consoling thoughts. One Is that the severest heat does not prompt men to crime, as the social statisticians have found that the se verest cold does. Another is that the worst temperature we are called upon to face falls a long way short of the endurance limit of the human body and brain, as proved by French ex periments at the 250-degree level. An other comes from the discovery through the newspapers, with every prolonged hot wave, that we are "breaking the -record" in some line or other. This ought to be a stimulus to our pride; and if we wish to carry further the beneficial influence of mental sug gestion, all we need to do Is to com pare what Is happening to us with what has happened to various other peoples at various other times. For instance, when the encyclopedias tell us that in A. D. 627 the heat in France and Germany dried the water sources and a multitude of people died of thirst; that In the battle of Bela In 1269, more soldiers were killed by the sun than by the weapons of the foe; that In 1303 three great rivers of western Europe went dry; and that In Odessa, in 1889, the noon tem perature reached 144 degrees and a sunshade was necessary at 5 irr the morning, we are bound to conclude that we are not so badly off after all. "When I first started 'on my own' in a wee little flat," said a bachelor girl lately, "I dreaded the thought of washing up the dishes. It was neces sary, owing to the nature of the busi ness In which I was engaged, that my hands should be soft and white and my nails well cared for and polished, and how was this possible, I asked, if they were obliged to be plunged in hot. greasy water at least twice a day? "I hoped I had solved the difficulty when 1 saw a bundle of mops hang ing outside a shop. I went in and bought a couple; but, alas, in a short while they had become greasy and worn out, and I had to spend precious minutes In keeping scraps of wooly stuff from running down the drain pipes. "Then I thought I had better try with homemade mops, and so de lightful was the result that now in my tiny kitchenette there is a row of these useful articles, some big, some little, but all, according to size and material, especially suited to the pur poses they are called upon to fulfill. "Supposing you want a mop for washing up the dishes and teacups. Take a stick a child's hoop stick is Just the thing some pieces of old cotton or woolen stuff and a piece of fine string. The hoop stick tapers to wards one end and finished in a knob and the first thing you do is to cut three little circles of linen and tie them over this lump to form a wad. "Then cut a strip of linen twenty four Inches long and twelve inches wide. Double this with the long edges slightly overlapping In the center and notch It deeply along both folded edges; then pull the top strips over the lower ones. Bind some string above the head of the mop and brush with liquid glue. Make a skewer red hot, run it through the end of the stick, pass a piece of string through tie In a loop and your mop is finish ed. "Longer handled mops for dusting ceilings, walls and pictures can be made from discarded broomsticks, with strips of notched serge or some other strong materials for heads. Worn chamois skins make fine heads for C ALK KNOWS A T1IIXG OR TWO. 0 D D Lb YOU can tone and Invigor ate the Stomach, Liver and Bowels and thus keep 'your self in perfect condition by the use of IIOSTETTER'S Stomach Differs (Science.) A man concerned In educational matters In Tennessee had been con verted to the agricultural point of view. He made no such mistake as to go to the people with messages of chemistry, botany or zoology, but, on the contrary, advocated eminently practical measures. At a meeting up in the hill country he made an address in which he labored long and ardu ously to prove to the audience that every boy and every girl should know how to milk a cow, and to this end should attend an agricultural college. After wearing himself and the audi ence pretty well out he threw the meeting open for remarks and dis cussion. After a painful silence a gaunt old man with hay-colored whiskers, the principal of a theologi cal seminary, arose. 'Stranger," said he, "I agree with you that every boy, black or white, should know how to milk a cow. I even agree that every girl should Include this art along with her other accomplishments. How ever. I want to make this suggestion: Wouldn't It be' a good thing for a col lege to teach Its students something that a calf couldn't beat 'em at?" IS YOUR THINKER IN ORDER? (Homlletlc Review.) What we think from hour to hour not only conditions the mental states we are in. but it fashions the very brains by means of which we think, and the very bodies through which we live out our thoughts. If a man thinks of petty and superficial things, he shapes a brain fitted only to deal with petty and superficial human ex periences. If a man thinks bad thoughts thoughts that are brutish and that degrade the feelings and the IS HORSES AND MULES m mm Good Stock at IilGIIT PRICES. Old Dutch Henry FEED YARD Under new management.
