Now aud then a man pauses to take
account of .tm k aud look, back ru^
fully over the course of bu life to note
i the many places where he made the
wrong turn or was shoved off the track
by adverse circumstances. He «are to
himself, believing what he says, that
if he could retrace bl. steps and take
a fresh start, knowing what be knows
now, he would not make such a mess
of thing, again.
He can put his finger down on the
very spot In the map of his life where
he went wrong. There was a blurred
place on the trail, where there was no
trace of the footprint of any who
passed that way and no mark of the
woodman’s ax upon a tree. It was
for him alone to choose the way to
take, and In hl. haste and fever to
arrive he chose wrongly and has wan­
dered ever since.
A man plays a game, or runs a race
or conducts a business, or marries a
wife, or choose, a friend, or elects a
calling, or forms a habit, and by and
by the conviction is borne In upon him,
like a growth weighing on the brain,
that he was In error. Now It is too
late to retrieve. He must wear for the
remainder of hi. days the millstone
due to the wrong decision.
What Is he to do? He strangled bls
chance newborn. He exchanged bis
birthright for pottage. It Is of no
avail to plead that he had bad advls-
ers, that he was misled, that he was
the tool of environment, that a base
heredity rose up to claim him and a
latent taint in the blood broke out and
wrought un irreparable mischief.
The past is there, and its legend is
deeply graven on bis brow or seared
by the brand of the Iron that has en­
tered into bls soul. Can he go back?
The years and the closed doors and
the finished chapters tell him no.
But the forward look and the fntu- 1
rity provide him with a better way to
take. When Mrs. reterkln, in the sto-
ry, had spoiled her cup of coffee by
putting salt in it and was trying to
redeem the error by the neutralizing
action of all sorts of chemicals tbe
lady from Philadelphia suggested that
she make a fresh cup. Seeing that you
can’t go back, why not make a fresh
start exactly where you are? Decision
has a miraculous way of finding a
standpoint of rock tn the middle of a
quicksand.—Philadelphia Ledger.

MONG our large circle of readers there are a great many

ties throughout the state; and to know about any fight which is
being waged for the measures Oregon farmers want and against
all sorts of schemes that are detrimental to the people and agri­
cultural interests of this state.

The Statement of this Hillsboro
Resident Will Interest Our Readers
Our neighboring town Hillsboro
points the way in the words of one of
its most respected residents:
Mrs. W. H. Morton, 1439 Second
St., Hillsboro Ore., says: “I can
always speay a good word for Doan's
Kidney Pills, since they pulled me
through a terrible attack of rheumat­
ic pains. For over a year, I wasn’t
able to dress myself and every cord
and muscle in my body pained so that
I couldn't rest day or night. I was in
constant misery every minute. During
this time trouble with my kidneys set
in and they were irregular in action
and congested. I felt sick and nervous
all over. I couldn't get anything to re­
lieve the suffering, until I began tak­
ing Doan’s Kidney Fills. In a few
weeks, my kidneys acted more freely
and the rheumatic pains began to ease
up. I stuck to them until I had finish­
ed about twelve boxes when 1 was
able to get around as well as ever
and do my work. Today I can get
around without any pain or effort. I
take a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills
now and then however and they keep
my kidneys in good condition."
