making speeches they discharge with
their words torrent OF bacteria and
other microscopic organisms OF different
varieties, the harmful or harmless char,
aeter of which depends upon the health
of the speaker. 1t can readily be seen
what a capacity for spreading evil the
unhealthy public orator is endowed
with. True, many of them sluice their
mouths and organs Of speech so often
with some form of alcoholic stlmulant
and disinfectant that their breath is not
so charged with deadly organisms as 1t
might be but it is well known that the
mouth secretions of healthy people ire
auently contain such yirulent microbes
as the staphylococcus pyrogenes aureus,
and the diplococcus lanceolatus, while
that diphtheria bacilli may be present in

sneezes no one in the largest hall is safe.
1t will, therefore, be seen that it is very

public should stay away from such
speech-making as much as possible, and

From the Cradle to the Grave.

'Tls a tiny, rosy infant, on a fond young
mothers knee,
With laughing eyes of tender blue and face of
innocent glee-
Oh, what has Fate in store for her, this babe
with the golden hair?
oh would that those tiny feet might tread a
path of roses fair.
Oh was IL in a dream the mother saw her
darling's future life
Was 1t in a dream she saw her babe as child,
maiden and wife?
And this is what she saw, looking adown the
AS she shed DER the graves of her fondest
hopes an agony Of tears.
First she saw gladsome, happy little school
girl,
With flying, golden hair and rosebud lips and
teeth of pearl
She saw the laughing, childish face and knew
the heart was free from care,
For the souls pure, Innocent miFth plainly
left its imprint there.
Next in the mothers vision comes the child
to maidenhood grown,
Sitting with clasped hands and sad, bowed
head, thoughtful and alone
Oh, plain to the mothers heart was the cause
of all her woe
She knew that Loves burning fires had
touched that bosom's icy snow.
Next she saw her at the altar, holding fast
her true loves hand,
And with trust that nee can falter, taking
on the marriage band
Oh, dainty, graceful little bride, in thy robes
of virgin white,
Lies highway stretches wide with thorns for
those tender feet, tonight
Oh, two short years Of happiness have passed
DER the bright, golden head,
When the mother sees her with babe in It's
tiny Siiken bed;
She SEES the smile OF joy and pride on her
darling's face,
She knows what she will have to bear and
murmers. FEATHER, give her grace!'
All. that aged, careworn woman, with the
sad and darkeninE brow,
Is Il child brings her this grief. or a hus-
bands altered vows
And can that be- the mother asks, the face
that lay against her breast.
And those hard and toil-stained hands the
baby hands her lips had presseds
Just one more view the mother has of her
child's future life,
'Tis a wrinkled face and snOw-whlte hair, and
eyes grown dim with strife;
lis a dFear and lonely bedside, and strangers
gather round,
Instead Of relatives by kindred ties Of love
and friendship bound.
In the coffin she is placed by alien and uu-
feeling hands.
But those limbs are cold In death, that soul
has fieG TO brighter lands.
The vision Is o'er-the mother clasps her babe
with bitter tears,
Longing 10 forget the pain and sorrow Of
those future years

Danger Of Over Confidence

One of the principal reasons why the
Rural Northwest does not do as much
Dragging about the superiority of Oregon
fruits as it otherwise might is that there
is nothing which is more dangerous than
over-conidence in the superiority of
ones product. This is particularly true
in the matter Of fruits. The people OF a
favored fruit growing section may by
merit acquire a reputation for producing
some special kind Of fruit of surprising
merit, but whenever the growers of that
community become thoroughly convinced
that their product cannot be equalled
they are in grave danger. There are
plenty of examples OF this. A few
years ago the Yellow Newtown Of the
Pajaro valley, California, brought the
highest market prices in the world. The
apple growers Of that valley firmly be-
lieyed that no other section could compete
with them and became careless. The
Oregon Newt0wn now has long lead Of
the Pajaro valley Newtown in the mat
ter Of prices. Excessive confidence in
the quality Of their product has led some
of the lemon growers of Southern Cali
fornia 10 engage in careless way with
inferior fruit ina competition in Eastern
markets with choice stock from Europe,
with a result disastrous to the reputation
Of fCalifornia lemons. In short, the man
who gets a swelled head also gets left
Rural Northwest.

0regon Insane Asylum.

No state in the Union has made better
provision for the care Of her insane than
has Oregon. The Oregon state hospital
is the most expensive OF the state insti-
tutions, but no attempt has ever been
made by the legislature to reduce the
appropriations below Nhat is needed
for the proper care of those unfortunates
who are incapable, because of mental
disease, of caring for themselves. That
the annual appropriation OF $l44, 900 for
the support OF this institution has been
productive of satisfactory results is
shown by the proportion Of insane pa
tients cured. The general average OF
patients cured in the United States is
20 per cent of the number admit ed. In
Oregon 32 per cent of the patients ad-
mitted to the asylum are cured. The
inmates of the asylum now number
slightly more than 1900, and the insti-
tuition has capacity for about 100 more,
so that the state will not be at any con-
siderable expense for improvements in
the near future. Aside from the usual
repairs Of ordinary wear, the expense
will be chiefly for maintenance. The
cost of maintenance is about $40 per
patient per month, which is considered
a reasonable rate, in view of the fact
that most of the inmates are in meas
ure helpless and must receive indiyid-
ual ion.-Heppner Gazette.
