AN INEXHAUSTIBLE MINE

The inexhaustible mine of truth is should sink the shaft deeper. Preci- ous jems await discovery by any and all who will enter the mine properly equipped.
 Since the products of this mine are discernabie only to those who appreci- ate their value, the matter of equip ment should receive careful attention
 The author and controller of this mine thus speaks: "He that doeth truth cumeth to the light" Then we read of people coming to serious grief "because they received not the love of the truth. , Thus doing truth be- cause we love truth enlarges our ca pacity to receive truth, and equips us for successful mining.
 The saving qualities of this precious metal should not be overoehed. w read of men of 'scorrupt minds and destitute of the truth.o I would sug- gest that careful attention of truth mining might serve 10 relieve the cor ruption that exists here and there, and such relief would prove saving of the products of other mines, such as gold and silver.
 | Healthful activity in truth mining would be a great blessing to municipal affairs, for such disturbances as spring from envy, malice. hatred, and the | like, would be greatly lessened, for 'seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth-see that ye love one another with a pure heart fer vently." Good and trusty neighbors would be assured if truth mining was properly engaged in by all, and oppos- ing factions would be done away with and common brotherhood prevail Wherefore, putting away lying. speak every man truth with his neigh bor, for we are members one of an- other.''

It seems probable that as a result of the recent undertaking given it, with the dispute between the line and staff officers over the hospital ships as a contributing factor. there will be a congressional inquiry into naval affairs. with view to ascertaining how much of the criticism of Ameri- can naval construction is warranted Many party leaders have expressed themselves as being favorable to such an inquiry. While there is a general belief that the recent article setting forth the alleged faults of the navy, which gave rise to the present discus sion, went altogether too far, it is also held that on some points naval construction is faulty when it might just as well be better planned to se- cure the maximum safety of ships and crews. The idea of the men favoring congressional inquiry seems to be that if the navy can stand close scrut- iny the unquestionng confidence of the people will be galned for it. On the other hand, it there are structural defects repeated in the designs for ships the present is the time to learn it, that they may be obviated in new tonnage laid down.

In his biennial report to the COVER
nor. II. d, Bean, president of the
board of regents Of the University OF
Oregon. urges the establishment by
the state of fund FOR the purpose
of pensioning superannuated college
/ professors who have given all their
time and strength to education, with
only meager compensation. The
fund Is to resemble the system Of re-
firing allowances established by AM
drew Carnegie, from which only those
instructors that have served a long
! time in the state institutions are to
receive benefit.
After describing the workings Of
the Carnegie fund, President Bean
says steps should be taken by the leg
islature to have the University of Or
| egon placed on the accepted list, re-
coiving benefits from the steel mag
nate. He adds. however. that 1t may
be impossible to have the University
OF oregon listed and, If so. the legis-
llture should establish similar fund,
| for without the university in the near
future Is going to have difficulty i'm
procuring the best and even compe-
tent instructors in many Of It's depart
ments.
THE scale of wages paid teachers
is so low says Mr.. Bean In his re-
port, that teachers will naturally
seek employment in those schools
where they are assured OF a livelihood
when mcapacitated for further serv-
ice by old age and III health In the
nature Of things salaries OF instruc-
tors can never be made comparable
with those In business life. for the
cXacting duties of their profession.
the propricties of their position and
the environment render It impossible
for them to engage in business to
make provision against III health and
old age.
THAT the state should. therefore,
provide for them would seem to be
nothing more than justice to a class
of faithful and conscientious. but
poorly paid public employees. and
would require but very small
amount Of money. Since the estab-
lishment of the institution In 1876.
only two or three would have been
entitled to benefits of system Of
retiring allowances modelled after the
Carnegie system.
There are now perhaps two instruc-
tors at the university that should be
retired. In no case would the state
have been required to pay allowances
for more than a few years. The es-
tablishment Of such a system would
greatly strengthen the educational
work, because we would then be able
To- invite the ablest teachers In the
country and could furnish means for
retiring old teachers whose places
would be occupied by younger men"
There. are now but 100 professors
ana Is widows of professors receiv-
ing allowances from the StO.OOO.OO0
fund set apart for the purpose by
Andrew Carnegie. only those pro-
fessors that have reached 65 years of
age receive aid. ana then not unless
they have been instructors in a school
of the accepted list at least / 3 years.
In his recommendations Mr.. Bean
does not signify what sum he thinks
would be required to start a fund for
the retirement Of superannuated uni
versity professors. The expense Of
maintaining the 100 professors and
Is widows above cited, though In
widely separated parts OF the conti-
nent, cost but $1S5,77O up to May
1908.

him to q doctor and tried half a dozen
other treatments, all with the same
result: no improvement at all. The
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part Of his body was quite raw.
We had to strap him down in bed, for
he used to tear himself dreadfully in
his sleep. The agony he went through
is quite beyond words. No one thought
we would rear him. The regimental
doctor q very clever man, pronounced
the case hopeless; at least, he said the
only hope was that he might, If he
lived long enough, outgrow it 10 some
extent. We had him in hospitals four
times and he was pronounced one OF
the worst cases, IL not the worst, ever
admitted. From each he was dis
charged as incurable; in fact he got
worse under the successive treatments.
At one hospital they incased him in
plaster, and this seemed 10 aggravate
the soreness terribly. He looked so
badly that no one liked 10 go near him
and his life was n burden TO him. We
kept trying remedy after remedy. but
we had got almost past hoping for
cure. Six months ago we purchased
a set Of Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and
Resolvent Pills and persevered with
them. The result was truly marvellous
and to-day he is perfectly cured, his skin
not having n blemish on il anywhere.
