What is the result Of the Cleveland
regime?
Statistics show that there is less
crime to the population than in any
other city of the world and constantly
decreasing.
This is true:
The criminal system Of this country
is more than a hundred years behind
the times, and the historian who
writes Of the first part of the TWEEN
tieih century VIII blister the page that
tells of our present barbarism.
What right has society to abuse and
incarcerate the unfortunate victim Of
drink
We license the saloon keeper to make
him drunk. He is weak. He is men
tally and physically diseased. In most
instances HE CANNOT HELP GET
TING DRUNK. Then we, in the per
son Of a policeman. hit him over the
head with a club and drag him to
vile jail. Could more inhumane treat
ment be invented?
We have made practically no ad-
vance in the PREVENTION of crime,
in so far as our criminal procedure is
concerned, in a hundred years. We
know nothing but PUNISHMENT.
The city Of Cleveland has quit the
methods Of the Old Testament-the

beginning Of civilization - and has
adopted the methods and spirit Of the
New Testament.
Cleveland is practicing the Golden

ESSENTIALs OF A HOME.

ESSENTIALS VI hOHE'
What are the three essentials Of a
home?
There are many essentials, but II you
were shut up to just three things what
would you select?
A woman's club of Chicago debated
that question for half day and reach
ed no conclusion.
One woman held that the three es-
sentials are a good temper, a good
mother and the wife in charge of the
finances, which raised the Scriptural
question as to who is the head Of the
house. The majority appeared to think
that Pauls idea Of the husbands su-
premacy Is out of date. Some held
that husband and wife are joint sOver-
eigns and that the family revenues
should be divided.
Another of the women held that the
essentials are "a good mother, good
cook and a trained nurse" This left
the man entirely out of the question.
Either he was not regarded as absO-
lutely essential or he was taken for
granted. And it was suggested that
woman might be a good mother, cook
and nurse and at the same time a very
poor wife.
One woman timidly limited at a good
husband as one essential, but not much
attention was paid to her contribution.
Late in the afternoon a minister hap
Dened in. He was asked his opinion.
He replied, "A man, a woman and a
cook stove"
Whereat the women spplauded the
rather cute solution and ended the de-
bate
Evidently 1t did not occur TO them
that a man, a woman and cook stove
might be the essentials Of a home, but
that they might also be the essentials
OF a dive.
One OF the Chicago newspapers took
up the discussion and asked for con-
tributions. Many answers were given,
and the one that was finally adopted
as the best was this: "a man, a wO-
man and a baby"
But this answer is open TO the OBJ
lection mentioned TO the reply OF the
minister.
It seems to US the solution is simple,
aud 1t is strange so many people should
have missed It. Narrowed down to the
absolute factors, the three essentials
OF home are:
A husband, a wife and LOVE.
Is it not so?

"THE AWFUL SECRET OF Nj
WRETCHED LIFE"

''THE AWFUL SECRET OF MY
WRETCHED LIFE"
Can you understand the significance
Of such a confession? Certainly not.
But it may give you some insight in,o
the awful agony Of a human soul suf-
fering the tormcnts Of the damned.
No less agony could extort such a cry
from human lips.
All OF which proves again the eternal
yerities Of the moral world. "The soul

What exquisite mental torture, what
a world Of heart suffering. is bound up
in that feeling we know as remOrse!

Doubtless his frame of mind is de-
scribed by the words that Milton puts
into the mouth of his Satan:

The Wonderful Aphis.

The aphis is in one way the most
startling Of all forms Of insect life,
for, although the females can and do
lay eggs, its usual method of increase
IS by a sort Of budding process, the
young growing on the bodies Of the
parent EXACTLY as brussels sprouts
grow out Of the stalks Of the plant.
The old produce young at the rate Of
twenty-five a day. and as the young
are at once mature each can produce
its twenty-five on the following day.
1t positively frightens one to work
this multiplication out to conclu-
sion, for 1t means this; Supposing that
the aphide could increase and multiply
without interference, the twenty-hfth
would be a number too long
TO quote here. Put down a and fol-
low it with % naughts and you viii

IT PAYS TO SMILE.

Popular Ballad

Take a look at the portraits Of our
statesmen Of the past They are near

square cut as to mouth. dignitied rs to
pose. You will scarcely find the gim-
mer of a smile on their faces.
1t is different nowadays
Smile pictures are popular
Note the pictures Of Theodore Roose-
welt. His well known visage is all
broken up and mellOwed with smiles
The picture shows either the good ma
tured grin or the teeth, revealing
spread Of face. The bulldog counte
nance Of the president is broken into
ripples like a pond into which a stone
has been cast.
And the face of William j. Bryan in
picture! He is a smiler of the most
expansive width-a width as broad as
his cOuntenance is wide. 1t is a con
tagious smile and is characteristic of
the man.
1t is significant that Mr.. Taft is called
Smiling Bill' and his running mate
sunny jim"
The people seem to prefer the man
who smiles.
We are nation of smilers. The
frOwners are of the unique minority.
The surly bOor is in hard lines in
these days. We are learning that to
look at the world through. smiling eyes
not only sweetens life and brings sat
isfaction, but that it pays.
The rewards Of life come to the op-
timist.
1t pays to smile. 1t pays in health.
in spirits, in absence of friction. 1t
pays in lives made brighter. 1t pays
in dollars and cents.
Therefore hold up your chin and
smile.
Don't be stingy In stretching your
mouth. If you play miser that way
you cheat only yourself.
1t is difficult to appraise a smile at
its highest. 1t Is an intangible thing
So is the light an intangible thing,
but 1t llghtens a world. So is heat,
but it warns the world. So is love,
but It redeems the world.
A home without a smile is no home
Smiles are as necessary in a house as
or air or warmth. They cost |
nothing. They are worth everything.
Smile!
Start the smile down in your dia-
ohragm and let it creep up into the cor
lers Of that dropping mouth and wrig-
gle up into the corners of those luster-
ess eyes. Smile! 1t pays.

QUICK WIT SAVED HIM.
The Way a Criminal Fooled Paris
Police Chief.

Police Chief.
In the "MemOries" of NJ. Claude,
chief of police during the reign Of Ma
pOleOn Ill, there is much that is fas-
cinating to lovers of detective stories.
One of NJ. Claude's experiences was
ehat in which he was outVitted by a
clever criminal who saw in the police

the poet was at the height of his pop
alarity a means Of escape from cap
ture. The criminal had returned to
Paris and was living as rich student
IN the Latin quarter, thenfn the height
Of It's bohemian splendor.
Claude thought to make an easy
capture of his man by attending a GER
tain famous ballroom at the hour when
dancing was at its height. He tells
the story:
II had no difficulty in discovering
him seated among a swarm Of pretty
girls and bewitching danseuses.

Portland Union Stockyards, Nov.
25.-Wlth heavy receipts during the
past few days the hog market Is now

proach Of the holidays added to the
heavy run combine to weaken the
tone Of the hog trade considerably
and while top prices are still obtained
in some instances, general transac-
tions may be said to be &c under for
mer values.
Cattle market is frmer with the
run again very light. Total arrivals

Is n better demand for sheep-in fact
the inquiries are many with practical

J. c. Louergan says Of the situation:
81 believe that the cattle market will
do better in the near future both as
regards prices and demand. Sheep
market is very firm at present prices
with some OF the northern packers
Inclined to offer a fraction higher for
select quality. Hog prices will prob
ably remain where they are for the
present"
"All markets are steady" says Lee
Lacey. OF Hunt & Lacey, "and prices
are firmer with more inquiies, too,
for sheep. Few of the latter are
coming forward at this time"
Little Interest in Grain.
Portland, Nov. 25-While prices
were lowered fraction or two on the
Portland board of trade, there is
practically no interest in the various
grain markets at this time. The cash
wheat situation is showing more than
the ordinary holiday dullness. and
nothing of interest has transpired in
the market during the past day or
so. Cash oats market is steady to
firm with little business in sight but
there is some movement Of barley to
the south at former values.
Business in export flour has be-
come so dull and lifeless that the
mlllers are no longer receiving daily
cables regarding conditions.
on the Portland board of trade to-
day the attendance was light, with lit
tie interest in the bidding. November |
and December wheat options are down
l-Sc in both the bid and ask price.
There was no change in oats futures
but today's weakness in San Francis
20 with the lower prices there for
barley caused a loss of 1hc per CEN
tai for the December.

WHAT CAUSES DYSPEPSIA?
And Incidentally Constipation, Coated
Tongue, Nervousness, Headache and
Other Symptoms.

Did you ever know that the stom-
ach is a churn? That just as soon as
you are done eating, the healthy
stomach commenced to roll the food
around, and mixes it thoroughly with
the juices of the stomach?
And did you know, dear reader,
that If the stomach is run down or
flabby, so that it cannot do the
churning, that dyspepsia is the re-
suit?
If the food is not churned, it lays
heavily on your stomach, turns sour.
and causes all kinds of distressing
symptoms, such as headache, coated
tongue, constipation, etc.
And so, as every physician will tell
you, the way to cure dyspepsia is to
fix the churn, or in other words, build
up the stomach so that 1t will prop
erly mix the food.
If you have dyspepsia and want to
get rid of it before it gets rid of you,
go to Tallman e Co, the druggists,
and get large box of Mi-o-na tab
lets. The cost is only so cents, and
every reader of the East Oregonian
is welcome to his or her money back
II Mi-o-na does not cure.
Mi-o-na has cured thousands of the
worst and most obstinate cases of in
digestion. Tt quickly cures sea sick
ness and vomiting of pregnacy
Mi-o-na is the great stomach tom
ic, one or two tablets will stop sea or
car sickness, vomiting of pregnacy,
and will instantly tone up the worn
out stomach the morning after the
social session.
