ACTING AS EXECUmoNER.

The East Oregcnian, in assuming
the role of executioner of the English
language in Pendleton, is reminded of
an old Chinese custom in regard to
the method of inflicting the death
penalty upon criminals.
In olden times in China, it is said
that each executioner had large
box in which were kept about 90 sharp
knives, on the handle of each being
written the name of n member of the
human body. on one handle for in
stance. would be written the word
ear" on another, fright thumb" on
another left foot" and on another
upper lip" and so on until all the
members of the body were enumer-
ated.
The executioner would reach into
the hoX blindfolded, and select knife
at a time. If he selected the knife
bearing the word "ear," off came Mr.
Chinaman's ear. If he drew tht
"foor'' or "hand" knife or the head
knife. re uzed il upon that member
and so on down the exquisite syster
of torture until the victim died, either
from loss of blsod or the shock.
The East Oregonian is not going t.
reach into the box blindfolded to Sc
lect a series of knives for the Englisl
alfabet.
But it has carefully selected knive
which will deal the death stroke t,
the "ph's" which mar the Englisl
language. Hereafter it will spell tele
fcne. telegraf, emfatic, alfabet sulfur
fonografy, fonograt, fonetics, fotog
rafy tyfoon, fyslcian. fysics, emfasize
chirografy. fllosofy and all othe
words having that -senseless combina
ton, "ph" in them, i'm a sensible man
ner, with letter "f'' as they sound.
This will be the chief point of as
saul:, hut other letters will be attack
on The skirmish lines, also.

A MILE WITH ME.

oh, who will walk a mile with me,
Along life's merry way?
a comrade blithe and full of glee,
Who dares to laugh out loud and free,
And let his frolic fancy play
Like a happy child, through the
flowers gay
That fill the field and fringe the
way,
Where he walks a mile with me.
And who will walk mile with me.
Along life's weary way?
A friend whose heart has eyes to see
The stars shine out DER the darkening
lea,
And the quiet rest at the end of the
day
A friend who knows and dares to
say
The brave sweet words that cheer
the way
Where he walks with me.
With such a comrade, such friend,
fain would walk till journeys end,
Through summer sunshine, winter
rain,
And then? Farewell, we shall meet
again!
Henry Van Dyke.

ROAST FOR AMERICANS.

William T. Stead, the great English
journalist says that the average Amer
lean newspapers are becoming more
and more sordid, more and more the
tools and slaves of private interests
and less and less expressive of the
great throbbing principles of Ameri-
canism.
He says most of them dare not open
their editorial mouths on subjects of
common interest and decency for fear
of being struck in the bizness pocket
by some injured interest or element.
Most of the editorials, he says, are
written in the bizness office. Most OF
the editorial sentiment reflects the
cowardice of the modern bizness meth
cd which compromises with vice
truckles to money and makes the
cash account the god of the whore
concern.
He says the majority of the SEEM
ingly respectable papers are things
without mind. conscience or back
bone.
1t Is time American editors realized
this tendency. 1t is time that money
and blzness were made to keep theil
place and time to inject some inde-
pendent, fearless thinking into edi'
torial expressions.

beaver, bilding his mud hut, with all
the wide world filled with superb i'm
ages smiling about him, inviting him to
change, to progress out of his mud
hut stage.
The only test of manhood is in the
mental and spiritual activities of the
man. II a man shuts his mind to the
light Of progress, darkens his life with
slothful inactivity, he is only part OF
a man. The best civil and military
warriors of the world have been those
who thot clearly ana acted intelli-
gently in response to the thot. Virile
activity. brain work, mind expansion.
spiritual growth. ability to see and
hear the new things in the world-all
these make up the true benefactor OF
the race!
The croaker sitting still IN the rut
never lifted a stone from the pathway
of mankind nor tore down barrier
for the angels of civilization to pass!

The Highest Voice
In the World

The New York sunday World gives
the following account of the woman
whose voice rea ches the highest pitch
known to nave been reached by any
person IN the world. The name of the
young woman in Nina David and the
World says of her:
What are the utmost possibilities of
the human vocal scale? Is there any
limit to them?
That is 4 question which doctors of
muzic asked each other 80 years ago
when Patti sang for them. 1t has
never yet been fully answered. Today
when progress in voice culture has
kept pace with all other achievements
in art and science, there is only One
woman i'm the country-indeed in the
world-creGited with the ability to
sing that gorgeous G in alt, which is
recognized rs being so far above the
capacity Of the ordinary prima donna
that is is never found in n modern
score.
The name of this gifted young wo-
man is Nina David.
When Adel'na Patti first showed a
small assemblage of muzicians that a
feminine could produce a full sustain
ed note two tones higher than had
been reached by any singer in the
history of muzic, the savants compos-
ing her audience could hardly believe
their ears, They made her sing the
great note again and again, while
they listened with critical senses that
were certainly iucredulous. If not Gym
ical. Yes. there it vase in alt.
Even Patti could not reach that
note now and hold it in its purity. Be.
tween the time when PATHS voice be.
gan to fail and now, there has never
been a woman who could sing thai
high G. Z Now, by all accounts, WI
have such q singer.
That Nine. Nina David, who ha!
been hailed by the whole muzica
world as a phenomenon, actually sing
and sustains that magnificent not,
there seems to ne no question. 1t Il
authenticated by number of eminen
mu2icians, who Uouid hardly plac,
themselves on record unless they wer
sure of their position.
1t is true that the possession of on
tremendously high note does no
guarantee a great voice throughout
As to Nina David, it is declared tha
her tones Throughout the whole scale
from C below the staff to the G ol
the FOURTH leger line above. are rich
full. velvety and irresistibly sympa
thetIc If she is all that is claime
for her in cities where she has beel
, heard, she is indubitahly n wonder.
, Her portrait shows that she ha
been blessed with more than the ordi
nary share of personal attractiveness
She has a bright, intelligent face wit
artistic intelligence shining from he
large, luminous eyes.
Personally she is a very charmin
young woman, cultured and modest.
Until Robert Grau. the impresarc
prevailed on her to make a tou
throughout the United States. she ha
never sung in public, except for
short timc in Europe in grand opera
and on the concert platform. He
great part i'm opera has always bee

PROGRESS AND CROAKERs.

The croaker has been the milestone
about the neck Of Progress from time
immemorial II the patient jade
Progress, ever made a forward step
or looked for an instant beyond its
nose. the croaker was there with
whining complaints and falt finding
seeking to prevent any advance or
change.
The upward and forward progress
Of the world has been made in oppozi-
tion TO the calloUsed and hardshelled
conservatives who have fought every
innovation. The conservative has al
WAYS been willing 10 remain in the rut
He has ever pleaded to be let alone
that he might sit still in slothfulness
The radical man has urged tho
world upward in spite of this dead
load. He has suggested changes and
with lightning like rapidity has eX-
ecuted them. In literature, in inven-
ton, in development of new empires
in the improvement of social condi-
tions, the radical man. the man who
is hooted Mt as a visionary, on expert
merter, has achieved the worlds only
genuine successes.
Men were endowed with minds in
order that they might think. Change
is the rezUit of thot. Progress comes
from brain activity. The radical mar
has uzed his mind. He has conceived
betterments and improvements, and
as God intended he has adopted them
has rushed the race forward, has lift
ed up social conditions, given wings
to invention, made education easy and
has brot to the word its most splendid
development
And he has done all this in the face
of the most stubborn and unthinkine
resistance from the man who is salts
fled with his condition. He has moi
only exerted his energy in devizint
new and better systems of industry
advanced systems of thot and express
sion, but he has had to fight agains
the oppozltion Of the blockader, tht
do-nothing conservative.
The badger has burrowed in th'
ground since the dawn Of creation. Ht

IMMIGRANTS.

In huddled groups. and stare from

Upon the curious crowds whose looks
deride
Their peasant faces, garments strange

Each had his place, though humble;
here the tide
Sweeps him along, an animal dull

Patient, submissive. What mysteri-

And what the purpose? Shall our

Guilty is kidney trouble, and the first

a little wreath embroidered on it at all
the places of quilting.
Suspender dresses are another item in
babyland. Little, fine, white lawn
skirts, with shoulder bretelles that but
ton on at the belt, come in sizes of
2 years to years, and are used over
other slips like small aprons. These
can be picked up at very small prices,
and for the baby who is not bound
over to some dressing system suggest
use as small petticoats. :..

lay aside on paraffn paper to harden.
The white fondant should have few
drops of vanilla worked into it before
being made up into balls.
Chocolate Creams.
Unsweetened chocolate should be
used for these, altho some prefer the
sweetened, and it can be used if de-
sired. The fondant may be colored and
favored in as many different ways as
you wish. Work the favoring and col
oring, if used, into the fondant, then
roll into balls and let it stand an hour
or so to become firm. Then dip them
into melted chocolate, leaving them in
as short a time as possible. Do not
leave too much chocolate on them, as
it spreads badly and spoils their ap-
pearance. Walnuts, hickory nuts, Pc
cans, etc. may be broken up and
worked into the fondant before making
it into balls.
Nut Bars.
This is made by working nut meats
into piece Of fondant and then press
ing it into an oblong shape, about half
an inch thick. It is better to have a
small tin pan to put it in to harden. It
may be made Of vanilla, rose or maple,
or the three favors may be combined
by making the three pieces the same
size and shape and, after they have be-
come slightly hardened, putting one on
top Of the other. Leave this until it is
perfectly firm, then cut in slices about
half an inch thick. Cocoanut bars is
made by mixing shredded cocoanut into
the fondant until it Is quite thick and
proceeding as with the other. Either
nut or cocoanut bars may be covered
with chocolate. AS it is difficult to dip
such large piece, it is better to spread
the chocolate on with a spoon. Fond
ant for nut bar, walnut creams, choco-
late creams, ETC., should cook slightly
longer than that which it is to be
melted, for unless it is quite firm It can
not be taken into the hands at all after
standing a few days.
The quantity Of material given in the
above recipes may be increased to suit
the requirements of the maker, SO long
as the proper proportion is maintained.
In making the candy for the purpose of
selling, the price to charge per pound
may readily be found by simply null
tiplying the cost by two and dividing
by the number Of pounds of finished
candy. This gives profit of 100 per
cent, but if you are satisfied to make
less you can reduce the selling price &C.
cordingly. If the candy is to be sold bv
the piece the price per piece may be
found by multiplying the cost by two
and dividing this by the number of
pieces of candy.
