EDUCATION AND SALARIES
As faddists increase the amount of genuine rot that
finds its way into the newspapers grows by geometrial
progression. Here is a sample taken from an editorial
in the Portland Livestock Reporter, but being really a
reprint of a certain educator's statement:
"According to. statistics every child who finishes the
eighth grade has an earning capacity during his life's
expectancy of about $:!2,000.00, one who finishes the high
school $18,000.00, and a university-trained man or woman
$72,000.00. This gives the boy or girl who finishes the
high school course a salary of $20.00 a day for every day
spent in the school room during the high school course;
for every year spent in getting the university training is
an equivalent to $::0.00 per day; in a rural school with
twenty children there is an earning capacity 01 irom
$400.00 to $1000.00 per day. Are you mothers and you
fathers going to let the matter of $1.00 per day difference
in salary between a real trained teacher and an untrained
teacher stand in the way of your boy's and your girl's
future?"
The faddist who wrote the above brilliant statement
evidently does not understand that there is lots of work
to be done in the wrold outside of the bosses jobs, nor
does he seem to realize that if every boy in the country
was educated, no matter how highly, that they could not
all command the salaries mentioned.
Every child should have a chance for the best educa
tion possible, on general principles, for it is good for the
child and for the nation, but to try to boost for higher
education by palpably false arguments is not only silly,
but indicates that either the booster's education was
neglected or nature was chary in filling his think tank.
The argument is that if every man was university trained
lie would eanj $ 10,000 more during his hie, in other words
that all wages and salaries would be advanced.
THE UNPARDONABLE CRIME
William Rockefeller and ten other directors of the
New Haven railroad are on trial charged with conspir
ing to form a trust, and they are being defended by 100
lawyers. The charge against these big financial high
waymen is purposely made of such a character, that
should they be found guilty the maximum fine is $5,000
with a possible but far from probable sentence to one
year in jail.
The real charge against them should be of deliberately
robbing the stockholders of that railroad of more than
$20,000,000, and by methods no self-respecting highway
man would descend to. That is the charge that should be
made against them, and then if found guilty the punish
ment should be made to fit the crime.
What a gasp of astonishment, would go up from all
parts of the United States, should some judge sometime
punish this class of crime committed by the "big finan
ciers" by a real jail or penitentiary sentence. And what
a howl of anguish would go up from the realms of "big
business" at the unwarranted hampering of commerce,
and the driving capital out oi its legitimate pursuits.
Now comes Mrs. M. V. Greene of San Francisco and
advocates the teaching of salesmanship in the public
schools. Mrs. Greene says many drift into the ranks of
the unemployed because they are not trained salesmen.
Wonder 'if the lady ever allowed whatever she thinks
with to realize that there are now no vacant jobs in the
salesman line, and that educating young folks in this
branch would not create any more jobs?
t
The shipping trust may after all cut its own throat.
Charters to Europe and England have been raised to a
point where wheat can be shipped from Portland clear
across the continent and reshipped cheaper than it can be
sent by vessel from coast points.
Somehow those Oregon Agricultural hens at the ex-j
position do not begin to come up to the record made by
some of the biddies at the college. Is it possible the O. A.
C. did not send her best layers to take part in the shelling
out contest?
SOOTHE AND HEAL
YOUR ECZEMA
WITH POSLAM
Poslam deserves the confidence of all
who seek a treatment for Eczema and
ailing skin. Not only does it possess
known merit and healing properties,
but it is absolutely harmless and no
injury results from its use. Has been
unusually satisfactory in treatment
of stubborn cases of Eczema, some of
them of many years' standing and
should be very helpful in- your case, al
laying itching quickly and showing im
provement every day. Use Poslam for
pimples or any surface disorder.
A word about soap if ordinary
toilet soap irritates, try Poslam Soap
medicated 'ith Poslam and superior for
daily use, toilet and bntb.s
For samples, send 4c stamps to Emer
gency Laboratories, 32 West 23th St.,

A Barnard college professor wants girls to be trained
to carry guns. It is hoped if this is done they will -also
be taught how to shoot them without shutting both
eyes.
John Casper, a distiller of Kansas City, recently
pleaded guilty to operating his distillery after the same
had been sealed by the government, and in connection
with certain revenue officers, not only conspiring to de
fraud Uncle Samuel, but actually beating the old gentle-
muii out of many thousands of dollars, and this too when
the money was badly needed for increasing the navy,
organizing a bigger army, arranging for a fleet of air
ships and building a big factory for the manufacture of
war munitions.
The judge in sentencing Casper evidently had his of
fense figured down to a nicety, for he sentenced him to
serve nine years and three days in the penitentiary at
Leavenworth, plus a fine of $:,.::,000. Three of the other
defendnats were given sentences of one year and one day
each in the same prison, and were each fined $1,000.
Just why that three days was added to Caspar's fine,
and the one day to each of the others is one of the things
the public need not understand. Perhaps it was like
some bills made out by public utility companies, where a
penalty of five per cent is added, so the company can be
generous and rebate it on payment of the bills. Anyway
Caspar should have known better than try to rob Uncle
Sam, for in the eyes of most Federal judges, that is
worse than taking human life. It is the unpardonable
crime..

CONFIDENCE
I know a man who hunts for snakes, and kills them
for their' grease. He says 'twill cure rheumatic aches,
and make your anguish cease. The doctqrs say that
serpent oil no sort of virtue owns; it will
not cure the pains that coil around your
joints and bones. But this old gun who
kills the snakes has never had a doubt; he
says all other cures are fakes, when" reptile
oil's about. He is so everlasting sure that
what he says is true, that even skeptics buy
his "cure," to see what it will do. And so
jf 1 i iiini tuning nam, tut iveeu uemunu
w I to meet, and he has bought with bullsnake
.U lard a home in Easy street. If you believe
in what you sell, have faith in what you
say, in that same avenue you'll dwell, upon a future day.
If one is not supremely sure that what he has for sale
makes all competitors look poor, his eloquence will fail.
A man can sell me setting hens, or swarms of bumble
bees, or double action fountain pens, or cures'for house
maids' knees, if he's convinced that what he sells beats
everything around; that sort of salesman's wearing bells,
wherever he is found.
Court Apartments

The Court Apannents on Court street
will be completed within two weeks an"
ready, for occupants. Profiting by the
Portland builders, these apartments

George P. liodgers and Charles H.
Me Nary, the owner;, tho rent for the
apartments will vary from $25 to .$35
a month. This monthly rent will in
clude heat, telephone, hot and cold
water service, dumb waiter and vac
uum cleaning. In fact, everything is

GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Lon't Look Old! Try Grand
mother's Recipe to Dark
en and Beautify Faded,
Lifeless Hair
i r! 3
That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
a mixture of Sage Tea and' Sulphur.
Your hair is your chnrin. It mnkes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy and
scraggly, just an appliention or two of
Sage a ml Sulphur enhances its appear
ance a hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the tonic;
you can get from any dnfg store a 50
cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sul
phur Compound.'' ready to use. This
can always lie depended upon to bring
back the natural color, thickness and
lustre of your hair and remove dan
druff, stop scalp itching and falling
hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's'' Sage nnd
Sulphur because it darkens so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush witn'it and draw
this through the hair, taking one smnll
strand at a time; by morning the grnv
hair has disappeared, and after another
application it becomes beautifnllv dark
and appears glossy, lustrous and' abundant.

Portland is making strenuous efforts to pet a general
steamship service, ami seems in a fair way of accom
llishing it. However, to those outside the city it looks
:s though it was an uphill fight. Astoria is the natural
shipping point for all the territory tributary to the
Columbia and for that matter Portland, and it looks as
though eventually it must become the main port in Ore
gon. It is only the big business and financial pull that
holds tho trade at Portland and this some day will not
prove strong enough to overcome natural conditions.
This is not said in derogation of Portland's facilities but
just as a conclusion of fact from conditions.

Flush the Kidneys at Once
When Back Hurts or Blad- I
der Bothers -Meat j
Forms Uric Acid !
No man or woman who cuts meat
regubirly can make mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occnsioiiHlly, says a
well known authority. Meat furms uric,
acid which clog the kidney pores so
they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the nxte nml poisons from the
idmid, then you get sick. Nearly all
rhenmHtimn, headaches, liver trouble,!
nervousness, constipation, dizziness,
sleeplessness, bladder disorders come
from sluggish kidneys. j
The moment you feel a dull ache iu
the kidneys or your back hurts,,
or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full
of sediment, irregular of passage nr
attended by n sensation of scalding,,
get about four ounces of .linl Salts'
from any reliable pharmacy and take!
n tablespoonful in glass of water tie
fore breakfast for a few dnvs and your
kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes aiul lemon juice, combined with
litliin and has been used for gener
ations to flush clogged kidneys and)
stimulate them to activity, also to neu
tralize the acids in urine so It no
longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders.
.lad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes u delightful effer
vescent lithin water drink which nil
regulnr meat eaters should take now
and then to keep the kidneys clejin and
the blood pure, thereby avoiding ser
ious kiduev complications.
