NEW DEAL COMING ON RUSSIA.
History is in the making in Russia. The allies have
already sent troops to ViacuvostoK ana nave eviuenuy
agreed at last upon a definite plan of action. Japan and
China will furnish the main body of troops, the other
allies sending only enough to show the Russian people
that it is an affair of alt the allies and undertaken because
Russia is still our ally. The Czecho-Slovaks still maintain
their power and it is expected the Siberian peasants will
flock to the standard of the allies as soon as they learn
they can do so without fear of destruction by the bolshe
viki and the freed German and Austrian prisoners. At
the'same time the news from Russia is to the effect that
the power of the bolsheviki is waning rapidly, and that
Prussian arrogance has caused the peasants to turn
against Germany, and to be preparing for open resistance.
News from Ukrainia is to the same effect. Germany has
threatened to give the Ukrainian ambassador his pass
ports, and apparently is preparing to make an example
4f tw prmni-rv. and onen a campaign of ruthlessness that
will drive all Ukraine back into the war, and will again
kindle the flame of resistance throughout Russia. Ap
parently the interference of the allies and the extending
rtf ViPlninp- hand has been well-timed. One of Hannibal s
nnaU tnlrf that warrior after the battle of Cannae
that "he knew how to win victories, but not how to take
advantage of them." It is so with the Prussians, their in
sufferable arrogance prevents them making friends of
their late enemies, and instead drives them again to war.
Russia is not in a condition to do much, but if she hampers
the Germans in getting supplies, and forces them to main
tain a large army on the eastern front, she will prove of
invaluable assistance in iorcing me ena oi um wai uut
much the sooner.
The Emergency Fleet Corporation says the building
of ships is sadly hampered by the soutnern pine interests
on account of their delay in delivering heavy timbers.
Director Schwab has -removed John H. Kirby, from the
position of lumber administrator, he being one ot tnree
virtually controlling the southern yellow pine industry.
Nothing is said as to the cause of his removal, but the
indications are he was found trying to serve two masters.
Mr. Schwab, since his visit to the coast has discovered
that if the government wants neavy ximoers ana uw mi
and strongest in the world, that the place to get them is
in Oregon and Washington.
John D. Ryan director of aircraft production in a
speech at Vancouver Wednesday said the United States
had placed orders for 50,000 airplanes. We may have
been a little slow in getting the plane construction started,
due largely to disagreement among those best informed,
and at the front where they were being used daily, as
to the best type, but now that that question is settled the
way the "birds" are being hatched is a revelation to the
world of American efficiency, and methods.
The kaiser has at last publicly admitted that the Am
ericans are on the western front "in superior numbers."
It is but a short time since he asserted there were but
i twenty thousand of them, and the sudden change in es
timate has been forced upon him, for in no other way can
he account for the drubbing his crack troops have receiv-
'VopuTl!1Up'oh"Vi.ed' 311(1 the defeat of his late offensive which he had
promised his people would be the last that would be re
quired, as it would bring victory and peace. Now he
grandiloquently asserts he does not fear the American
superiority of numbers because "the spirit that animates
troops has more to do with success than mere numbers."
He is right in this, but overlooks the fact that so far in
the war his troops have been victorious only when in
superior numbers. He has yet to have it demonstrated)
by his troops that "their spirit" will win. As a matter of
fact letters taken from prisoners and statements made by
neutrals show that the spint is pretty well broken among
those whose bodies are used for cannon fodder, even
though still strong among the Prussian leaders who are
not exposed to danger, such as the crown prince for in
stance, and the kaiser himself, who despite he wields the
"shining sword," takes good care that that sword never
tempts him near enough to the enemy to use it. At the
same time he tells the German people that the U-boats
will win, and this in face of the fact that this promise
has been made many times heretofore, and has always
proved false. He knows that so far as the submarine
ruthlessness is concerned there is no hope of accomplish
ing anything m the way of winning the war
them and that all they can do is to harrass and annoy the
allies. One would think the people who have the distin
guished dishonor of being his subjects would learn what a
wholesale prevaricator he is and lose confidence in him.
They would sure make fine picking for Graham Rice and
should be added to his list of "suckers."
I The Woman Wk Changed J
By JANE PHELPS
The English are making a mistake in permitting Lord
Lownsdale to give publicity to his traitorous peace notions.
Of course they will have little or no effect among English
men or any one else except the Germans. The kaiser will
ree to it that they are given the widest publicity among
Jiis people, as showing the allies are weakening and are
anxious for peace. The British peer should be interned
until after the war for giving aid and comfort to the
enemy.
Governor Withycombe has reached a conclusion ar
rived at many centuries ago that "there is no honor
iunong thieves." However the example of "honor" set by
himself in dealing with' Superintendent Crawford of the
prison flax plant was not conducive to encouraging that
virtue among those over whom he has sole control. He
advocates some employment be furnished the prisoners
inside the walls. This will be a move highly appreciated
by the citizens, if it will keep the convicts from outside
tht walls, whether they do much work or not.
It is reported a Greek army, of 150,000 men is ready
for service and that these will soon be taking part against
me Bulgarians, ihe enmity between these two races is
centuries old, and of such a character that even in this
country after subjects of each have become American
citizens, they can scarce maintain the peace: There should
be some spectacular fighting when armies from these
countries clash. - .... .
Hop sales at 20 and even as high as 22 cents a pound
are reported at Eugene. While the market is not so large
as before the drys got busy, there is still quite a demand
in the east for the crop of the coast One thing is -the
making of near beer which while cutting out the alcohol
increases the proportion of hops and so increases the de
mand.
An epidemic of typhoid is said to have broken out in
Bulgaria,. and it is further stated that it is because two
of the members of the royal family have been attacked
by it that the king has sought safety for them in "a for
eign country." Just where they are located is unknown.
Little Guatemala has an army of 85,000, and French
officers are being .sent to train them. It is not a great
army, but the little republic shows her heart is in the
right place.
The outlook for labor to pull the state flax crop this
year is far from encouraging, and is getting worse daily.
As lor the wood contracts they are on.

WOMAN TRIUMPHANT."
The woman barber is on deck; today she dyed my
sideboards blue, and brushed some talcum on my neck,
as well as any man could do. Her lily fingers held my
nose, she lathered me with queenly grace, and tinted up
the brush that grows around the borders of my face. To
day 1 took a litney ride: a woman driver held the wheel:
she was as blooming as a bride, and full of business as an
eel. And when I offered her in pay a bogus seven-dollar
bill, she threw me o er a stack of hay with most surpns
ing strength and skill. I went to shock some sheaves of
wheat, that all the nations may be free; and, as I toiled on
weary feet, a husky dame worked next to me. As counsel
for James Pritchard Hose, in court I did my very best; a
woman lawyer then arose, and knocked my logic galley
west. While I was fighting with my wife I fell downstairs
and broke a thew; a woman surgeon brought a knife, and
fixed me up as good as new. The men have gone to whip
the Hun; their wives and daughters stay behind, to see
that every duty's done, to carry on the ceaseless grind.
Today I thought, with whoop and song, I'd celebrate a
Hun defeat; a woman peeler came along, and pinched me,
on Commercial street A woman jailer saw me knefl con
tritely on the prison stones; a woman cadi heard my spiel,
and put me down for fifteen bones.
THE VEW LITE.
CHAITEB CXLV.
The days passed to qoicklj- thtt
when mother, on the Jay baby was
month old, told me that she must go
home, I could acareely realize ahe had
been with me so long.
We. had named our boy "Kenneth
MUner Howard." The "Kenneth '
after George 'a father, and the "Mil
ner" for my entire family o my hue
band said. My brothers were delight
ed, aad each wrote me euch gay let
ters.
It would have ben ridienious, had
the baby been a girl. Thilip said, in
hi joking way, "with three uncles
to teach him all a boy needs to
know."
"I am glad he' is a boy," mother
3aid. George is so pleased. He is
planning already where he shall be
educated."
Evelyn cauie over every day, usu
ally bringing little Helen. We plan
ned what good times we would have
with our babies as they grew older,
One thing, only, saddened me in con
nection with my boy: and that was
that Mrs. Seiton never could see
mm. it was strange, "how often I
thought of her aad of the things she
had told me. In so many ways sh
na aauviseu me as eve.n my own moth
ar eeul,l not: tor she had lived all
hni- lifrt in : L
through one nearer my own, now that I was
married to - a successful man of the
world.- I had repeated to mother
many of the things that alio had told
me, aud mother quito agreed that she
naa done a great deal for mo.
"How you eonld have disliked her
at first, even, seems strange, in view
01 what you tell me." mother said.
after we had talked cf Mrs. Seitoa's
last days.
YOUNG AND INEXPERIENCED.
"I resented hor.'
--inar was Because you wero so
young."
'IVfes, and inexperienced. I think
h. understood before she died. J
love to think she did."
"I am sure she did," mother re
plied, "and,dear, I want you to re
member all he told you. She was so
well fitted to diree. you rightly. She
knew so well jus; what you would
nesd, in this large town life that I
Know nothing about. Then, . too, 1
know from what you have told me that
she was a good woman. Many people
have the idea that society women are
mvoloiM and are not particularly good,
as we use the word. But I know that
it is a mistake. There are, there must
be, many sue-h women as Mrs. Sexton in
society? They have a place to fill in
tho world, andi if they fill their lives
ith kindness and thoughtful acts,
their social duties do not make them
less spiritual than the women who have
no such tax upon them. I haven't ex
pressed myself very well, dear; but
I mean to make yon understand that
you can be the kind of a wife George
needs, and yet be as good a woman
as if you were living back home."
"I know what you mean, mother.
I enn be like Mrs. Bubcock. "
"Yes. And thero must be many
such women."
"Not many so sweet and kind, 1
m afraid." Hut mother only smiled-
TOO RW TO 1SK VERY UNELY.
I missed mother deadfully, bt 1
was too busy to be vey lonely. It
doesn 't seem possible that one small
bit of humanity can take up so much
time, but 1 was eallv busy every mo
meut of the iuy- Uf eourao I spent
a good deal of time- just holding him.
Mother said. I would spoil him. But
he was my own baby, and if I wanted
to pet him and hold him, I was going
to! When I told her so, she laughed
and replied:
"All right, dear- I always felt
that way, too. But it will make it
harder fur you to take care of him,
if you humor him too much."
"I wou't allow her to spoil the
youngster too much." George broke
in, "I must see that she doesn't make
herself ill."
Whenever George said anything like
that, it meant as much as a caress
would mean frum some men. It had
taken me a long time to learn that
fact; and I had scarcely become ac
customed even yet, to doing without
the petting I saw given to Kvelyn and
to other wives who&e husbands were
mors demonstrative.
I don't think undemontrative peo
ple realize how those who are natural
ly affectionate feel about such things.
A kiss, a caress, means so much to
them. Whenever I saw Evelyn and
Kurts together, I always folt sort of
neglected, and, foolish as it may
sound, like crying. Kurts scarcely
could pass her without giving her a
little loving touch, or a kiss.
But I Had, especially ofte bnby
came, great consideration George
was kind, thoughtful, and anxious that
I should u't overdo in any way. Bnt
often I thought I would rather he
would be more affectionate, and not
quite so considerate.

Stanolax Is Different
Most drufc-laden catkartics spar the intestinal
organs to unnatural activity in order to
relieve constipation.
This weakens them to a point -where they be
come dependent upon the continued use of
such cathartics.
Stanolax is different. It is
not a cathartic. It Has no
drus in it It is tasteless,
odorless, colorless. It is
absolutely mechanical in
action. It is not absorbed
nor digested.
Stanolax is a natural lu
bricant. It cannot act
violently nor cause the
slightest physical strain. .
A baby or invalid can
take it. Stanolax soothes
the abrasions on the in
testinal walls.
