The future looks gloomy; my eyes
have grown rheumy, from viewing
With pain find alarm; I ftim up the
morrow as loaded with sorrow. It hns
n't a grace or n clmrm. Oh, double
rteinnitlon is more n condition than
theory in all I behold; our bulwarks
are shaking, palladiums, breaking
what wonder my trllbys are cold? For
I'm feeling rummy Willi crumps in
my tummy, from eating too largely
of pie; the pains of the colic inside of
ine frolic, and gladly I'd curl up and
die. Ho sadly I'm viewing tho future
Knd chewing a rag In a desolate way;
nnd no one who uears mo, who pauses
and hears me, whonld care seven cents
what I. say. My message prophetic
would be less pathetic if I had no
sntiBin or ache; but gloom is the mas
ter of any forecaster who mixed up
Ids pie and his cake. Tho prophets of
evil who spiel nbout weevil when they
should be talking of wheat, would
doubtless be cheery If they were, not
Weary of pain in their stomachs or
Icet. The way we are feeling thus
governs our spieling, our outlook, and
ail that we do; a seer csht be sunny,
for. marbles or money, when he Is
tied up with the flu.

SPIRITS VVL L TREAD
OARD AT THE GRAND
TORN between a Recent' respect for the opinions of its
readers and an indecent political partisanship, the
Portland Oregonian continues to make a ludicrous spec
tacle of itself in its treatment of the peace treaty and
league of nations.
Endorsing the president and the league before the
senate reactionaries attempted to make opposition a party
matter, the Oregonian has alternately blown hot and cold,
its news columns full of propaganda assailing the league
and its editorials trying to support both the league and the
league opponents.
Now that partisanship and prejudice similar to its
own have killed the treaty for this ssesion and endanger
ed it for the next, the Oregonian has no word of condem
nation for Lodge, who succeeded in carrying out his an
nounced intention of blocking the treaty, but places all the
blame upon the president because of his objection to the
nullification of the treaty.
The president's letter, which the Oregonian holds de
feated compromise, read as follows: .
1 should hesitate to offer counsel in any detail, but I assume that the
Senators only desire my judgment upon the all-important question of the
final vole on the resolution containin g the many reservations of Senator
I,odge. On that I cannot hesitate, for in my opinion the resolution in that
form does not provide for ratification but rather for the nullification of the
treaty. I sincerely hope that the frle nrln and supporters' of the treaty will
vote against the l.ortge resolution of ratification.
I understand that the door will then probably be open for a genuine
resolution of ratification.
But Senator Lodge refused compromise and in re
venge for the senate's refusal to pass his own reserva
tions, Succeeded by the votes of those "mild reservation
ists" who had voted down his own nullifications, in reject
ing, compromise and in killing the treaty.
Lodge's attitude was reflected in his statement boast
ing of the result, issued after adjournment:
"The president may withdraw the treaty when the senate reconvenes,
and, of course, he can tlfen resiilmii t it in the next session. But the treaty
is dead In the senute, and they killed it, as I told them they would, if thoy
oted against it."
Only by a compromise can the treaty be passed. Par
tisanship is too strong to either pass the original treaty
or the Lodge nullification. If there isn't statesmanship
enough in the senate to effect a compromise, a humiliated
nation must confess its failure.
If the Oregonian was sincere in its support of the
league, it would not favor the Lodge nullificationbut
who expects a party organ to be sincere? That is one rea
son why the party organ is becoming a thing of the past.
People are tired of guff, weary of the sounding brass and
tinkling cymbals of political partisanship,
SILVER THE PRECIOUS METAL.

117ILLIAM J. BRYAN evidently finds vindication and
" cause for thanksgiving in the high price of silver.
He has wired the New York papers as follows.
Press- despatches report bulllo n value of gold dollar 5 cents less than
bullion value of silver dollar. Are the Now York financiers living up' to
their claims of honesty that they made so vociferously in 189(1? Or are
tliey paying their debts in a cheap gold dollar?
Mr. Bryan has waited for a long time to see silver re
stored to its former, value which he advocated accom
plishing by arbitrary legislative enactment, but the law
of supply and demand has forced up the price of silver
by relatively lowering the price of gold.
Most of the gold of the world came to the ' United
States during the war, forcing the use of silver in" other
nations and the ensuing demand exceeded he supply.
There is even talk in Europe of restiring the bimetallic
stand;) yd though now the silver miners would oppose it.
With the cheap gold dollar only buying half a dol
lars worth of groceries or other supplies, it is no surprise
to find it buying only fifty cents worth of silver.

missln' a e'rl's heart those day. One
thing about prohibition -when a f.V
ler'n pleasruit Vf know it's natural.
nnd thai the arranging of my trip took
my mind in some measure from my
great sorrow.
1 was wandering aimlessly about
the room, doing the little needless
tilings when I was recalled to myself
by Ileuriette's voice: .
"Will Mr. Gordon come after you?"
"I do not know," I answered. "Air.
Ciordon does not yet know of my
father's Illness. When I called him
pn the 'phone his secretary told me
that he was engaged in an important
conference and did not wish to be
disturbed."
Henrietta pursed her lips pecllarly
but said nothing, as she began to pack
a trunk. I wondered for a moment If
1 had not been hRsty in not Insisting
upon speaking with John under the
circumstances. I decided, however,
that I could not have told my sad
news to any one but John himself, and
I know that only" battle, . murder or
fire would drag John to the telephone
when he was in an "important con
ference." , ,' l
"I don't think I had better take a
trunk, Ileuriette," I satd when I came
to myself enough to know whut she
was doing. "Just pack a big bag nnd
my dressing rase. Please call a taxi
for a uuarter to six."
As I hastily bat hod by swollen face,
I realised for the first time that pos
sibly T did not have enough money for
my Journey. I hud not been able to
find courage enough since our mar
riage to ask John for money, and he
had said nothing about an allowance,
which I was u, e he meant to give me.
Henrlette saw me looking in my
purse and as I couitted my money she
must have noticed how little I had for
she offered:
"I hope you will let me give you
what money you need, Mrs. Cordon.
Madam Cordon paid nie today and 1
have not yet been to the hank."
"Thank you so much, Ileuriette, 1
think fifteen dollars will do wlth
what 1 have," I answered, relieved,
"I cannot tell you how fine I think it
is for you to offer it to me. I shall
always be grateful."
"Oh", Mrs. Gordon, I am sure you
would do It for me under the same
circumstances, and Just because you
are rich and I am a working woman,
does uot change the fact that we both
i may love and must suffer, does it?"
"No, Henriettte, and neither will it
make me forget that in my hour of
trouble, when otherwise I should be
quite alone, youu have been to me a
sympathetic friend." I answered, the
grateful tears this time coming to my
eyes.
As though to change my thought,
Henrlette said briskly:
"You have only Just time enough to
get your train, Airs. Gordon, t tel
ephoned for the taxi while you were
bathing your face and it will be here
at liny moment now," '
As In confirmation of her words we
heard the taxi drive up and. calling
the houseman to take down my;bag
gage, ileuriette followed me to the
porte cochere.
"Tell Mr. Gordon. Henrlette, that I
could not wait for a later train as my
mother is all alone. I have left the
telegram I received on my dressing
table." ,
'I'll tell him, Mrs. Gordon," she said
crisply, and in spite of my grief I al
most smiled at the grim expression of
lu face, 1 knew that Ileuriette had

Yet It Is a fact that today

what is undoubtedly pur most
precious gift the faculty of

There are only twenty-

their vision.

knofrn my husband since he was unni
and sh probably weAlld be perfectly
respectful in breaking my news to
him, but I was sure that she would
do It in a no-wise concilatory manner.
As the taxi turned the corner it
almost colided with a limousine and,
looking up, I saw Madam Gordon and
Bessie Mot eland who was evidently
coming to the house for dinner. For
a moment my grief turned to bitter
ness, even though I knew that both
John and his mother were perfectly
unconscious of the sorrow that had
come to me.
"I wonder if John will feel called
upon to entertain Miss Moreland this
evening even though his wife is speed
ing to her dying father!" was the un
invited thought- which' came to my
mind.
I dismissed the Idea immediately,
arid felt rather ashained for I was
sure that when John knew why I had
called him he would be full of loving
contrition and would follow me as
soon as possible.
Entering the train, I t- ed to tell
myself again that I should have told
John at once that my father was dy
ing, but I had a horror of Imparting
such news through an employee. It
was too personal, too tragic! Had I
said it over the wire, I should have
burst Into tears. As it was, I was sob
bing out my grief alone.

If you. want to get relief from ca
tarrh, cold in the head or from an irji
tatins cough in the shortest time
breathe llyomei.

allow yon to breathe freely.
llyomei often ends a cold in one day,
nnd bring quick relief from snuffles,
hard crusts in the uoac, hawking, spit

Hyomei is made chiefly from a sooth
ini, heatiug antiseptic oil, that comes
from the eucalyptus forests ofnlund
Australia where catarrh, sthma, "bron
chitis, tonsilitis, influenza, pneumonia
and consumption were never known to
exist.
Hyomei is pleasant and : easy to
breathe. Just pour a few drops" into
the hard rubber inhaler, use as direct
ed and relief is almot ferritin.
A complete Hyomei outfit, including
inhaler nnd one bottle of Hyomei, costs
but little at D.nucl ,T. Fry's and drug
gists everywhere. If you" already own J
