MANY M0THERSAT.
TENDED SERVICE
SPECIAL SERVICES AT THE PRES
BYTERIAN CHURCH DREW
LARGE AUDIENCE YESTERDAY
MANY CARNATIONS USED.

Over one hundred mothers
were present yesterday at the
special Mothers Day" exercises.
One of the features was the pinning
on of a white carnation on the moth
Iers. The services were greatly ap-
preciated by large attendance and
special music was furnished.
Rev. Stephenson spoke on the text:
t"Her children shall rise up and call
her blessed" Among other things he
said:
GA great prophet and literary man
and preacher of Gods unsearchable
riches, in speaking of this chapter
from which our text was taken did
so under the title "The Perfect Wom-
an" AS we begin at the first of this
chapter and study it verse after verse
we realize that we are ascending to
higher and higher plane. We come
up through the virtues, the homely
virtues, one by One-there is sObriety
enjoined; there is industry exempli-
fed; there is prudence demonstrated;
there is purity lived; there is fidelity
in the daily walks of life-higher and
higher you rise, as some mountain
climber scales bench after bench and
rock after rock until he has arrived

the pause and he looks back over the
scene that now lies before him, and
a beautiful sight 1t is. Then comes
the text, Her children shall rise up
to call her blessed;' then on to the
summit and this is the summit: "A
woman that feareth Jehovah shall be
praiser' This is the apex of the
chapter, but to fear Jehovah Is not to
be afraid of Him, but rather to honor
Him and to be humble in His pres
ence In another part of Proverbs
we read, The reward of the fear of
Jehovah is riches and honor and life
And so we are gathered here today
for the express purpose of honoring
motherhood. The children rise up
today and call mother blessed
"In the Orient the mother occupies
a place of prominence and authority,
even where the status of womanhood
is low. She is revered; her word is
law in the home. and to her, as in the
Occident,' is intrusted both the care
and instruction Of the children. In
some countries, notably China, the
queen mother has more power than
the queen and even outranks the king
himself. A practical demonstration
of this has been given by the late en-
press dowager of China, who was the
ruler de facto over decade and that
during an age of the greatest progress
that China or any other country has
ever seen.
Every mother is a queen, and it
is for these self-sacrificing queens
that this service has been planned. In
former days in other climes, when
ever a subject came into the presence
of the sovereign he prostrated him.
self in her presence. This he did in
order to honor her and do fealty to
her. If by prostrating ourselves to
you mothers this morning we could
do more honor to you there is not
here a man who would not join me
in bowling his head to the dust"

SMALL HOPE FOR
PA[0USE
HUGE IRRIGATION SCHEME
SEEMS TO BE FAR, FAR AWAY
AND NO EFFORTS ARE MADE
TO REVIVE.

Reports that the reclamation ser
vice is contemplating reviving the
Palouse irrigation project are not
substantiated by the officers of the
service, states a Washington, d. c.,
report. They say that the project
has been practically abandoned and
that there is no intention of en-
deavoring to revive it.
The Palouse project was examined
in 10000 and contemplated the ir-
rigation of a considerable area OF
lands between the Snake and Colum-
bia rivers and between the towns of
Connell and Pasco on the Northern
Pacific railway. The Palouse river,
from which it was proposed to take
the water for the enterprise is vari-
able in its flow, carrying in dry sea-
sons less than 100 second feet and
in flood seasons sometimes $4,000
second feet 1t carries water in con-
siderable volume only during flood
seasons, during the time of melting
snow.
The project contemplated the di-
version of the Palouse river by head
works in the vicinity of Hooper,
where several good dam sites on
solid rock were found The upper
site was located about a mile above
Hooper where the water could be
diverted into the supply canal at an
elevation of 1876 feet, from which
a considerable body of land could be
irrigated by continuing the canal for
a distance of seven miles below
Hooper, where a dam in a narrow
gorge, $50 feet wide at an elevation
of $40 feet and 600 feet wide at an
elevation of 1O4O feet, was consid-
cred feasible The diversion canal
line from the lower dam would be
through low divide connecting with
a canal line in Washtucna coulee.
1t was estimated that 10000 acres
could be irrigated from these two
canals witht 1T pumping and by put
ting in pumping plants to be run by
the power developed by the fall in
the main canal 10000 or $4,000
acres in addition could be reclaimed.
The proposed plan was considered
oin CT
point although the character Of the
subsoil which is of a sandy-gravely
nature, made il uncertain as to the
permanency of the irrigation works.
The question of cost was never
fully gone into, but without close in
vestigation 1t was believed the cost
per acre would be beyond what
could be obtained from the lands to
be irrigated.
The officers of the reclamation SER
vice still hold the view that the cost
of the proposed project would be too
great to make it feasible and, as
stated, it has practically been aban-
doned The lands which were to be
irrigated are classed. however, as
lands susceptible of irrigation and
consequently will not be subjected
to entry under the new enlarged
homestead act which permits the en-
try, in certain cases, of 320-home-
steads.

Second Case of Kind.

This is the second report that has
reached exposition officials of copfi-
dence men using the 1909 fair aS a
basis for their operations, and Yin
each of these casees the swindler has
promised to give out positions In re-
turn for an employment fee or a
deposit guaranteeing good faith OF
the victim. Rosenberg is the first
confidence worker, however, who has
attempted to sell stock in the fair
corporation.
According to the story written by
LAUDER, Rosenberg claimed he was
one of the heaviest stockholders in
the exposition He declared his stock
was guaranteed to earn 3 per cent
a week during the life of the fair
and that his holdings would give him
an income of $40 a week. He was
willing to let Louber in on the ground
floor by selling him $50 worth OF
stock at par, which, however, he
said had to be issued by the corpora
ton officers.

4. j. LAUDER BUYS STOCK FROM
CONFIDENCE MAN GUARAN-

Seattle, May 10.-E. J. LAUDER of
Chicago paid man calling himself
Louis Rosenberg $50 for Alaska
Yukon-Pacific stock guaranteed to
pay 3 per cent per week interest; $50
for a job for his wife as "forelady"
for a novelty boat exhibit, and $50 for

Touring mill exhibit. He paid the
money last fall and was to have had
it returned, with 5 per cent interest,
by Christmas. AS the money has not
been sent to him and the exposition
corporation has not expressed any
stock certificates or dividends Mr.
Lauber's curiosity has been aroused
and he has asked the exposition man
agement for an explanation. Secre-
tary w. NJ. Sheffield has written a let
ter advising Mr.. LAUDER that there is
no Rosenberg in the list of exposi-
ton stockholders; no man Of that
name among the concessionaries and,
in all probability, Mr.. LAUDER has
been the victim of a confidence work

NEW LAW OF HEREDITY.

Certain Qualities Appear Incapable
OF Destruction in Stock.
Some time ago an English scientist,
w. Beach Thomas, contributed to the
| English press an article on MendeIs
great discovery concerning heredity in
| plant and animal life. "The scientific
| world" he said, sis on the point of
giving full recognition to a new, strange
and deep-rooted law, and it IS a salts
faction TO know hal in a few months
some of the most striking of it's prac-
teal results will be published by a
body of English scientists"
Briefly. the law, which seems to
| touch the ultimate mysteries of hered-
| ity, is this: When pure stock OF strains
| are crossed, 1t is fOund that Il certain
| list Of qualities remain, so to speak,
| indestructible, and appear uncontami-
mated in Il definite proportion of the
offspring of all generations after the
first.
Some concrete examples will best
show the practical effect of the law,
SAYS the Technical World Magazine.
When the tall variety of sweet pea and
lGe SllOIl Nullely vi Dwell Deu ulS
crossed, the first generation are all tall.
Tallness is the dominant quality over
shortness, which is called recessive. But
Ia the second generation it is found
that Just o~ne-quarter are dwarf, and
| hot only are they dwarf, but they will
remain pure dwarf, without any rever-
sion. and when crossed with dwarf will
never again show signs of tallness. The
other ~three-quarters will be tall, and
of these tall again just one-quarter will
he pure tall, and never again show
! signs Of dwarfness. The remaining two
quarters viii be impure, but again
| when crossed with their like will give
| both pure tails, pure dwarf and mon
srels in due proportion SO that we
find in all grandchildren, so to speak,
OF pure strains, the proportion 1921
has a mystic application-that is, one
quarter of these grandchildren will be
exact or pure reproductions in one quail
ity of their grandmother, ~one-quarter
will be pure reproductions of their
grandfather, and two-quarters, though
resembling one grandparent, will have
latent In them the qualities OF both.

"Wonen should not copy men In
dress, manner or IDEAS, but should be
like the women Of colonial days, who
could sew, cook Mrd care FOR the
home. and who had an abiding faith
in their husbands,' declared Rev.
William Hayes Ieavt!l, ID. d., president
Of Westminster Col eye, Fulton, Mo-,
in his address at the recent banquet
of the Society of Colonial Wars, held
in st. Louis.
Few women Of to-day" he said,
would leave their homes, their
friends and all the attractions Of life
to follow their husbands into a for
eign land as did the women of colon
ial days. Modern influences have had
IL de%terioratiDg effect on women: they
have destroyed much of the attractive

Carron OIL for Burns.

Burns ana scalds are more likely t
happen in the kitchen than in other
parts Of the house. 50 it is well to pro
vide for the special use of the dOmes'
tics a bottle of carron OLA mixture OF
equal parts of linseed oil and lime wa
ter-and also n supply of soft liner
rag or lint for their special use In case
of emergencies. A clean, air-tight tin
should be used for storing the band
ages. sc that they may not get soiled.
The carron oil relieves the pain of
burns and scalds at once. The lint
should be soaked in IT and laid on the
wound, to exclude the air, that healing
may begin as soon as possible.

In Behalf OF the Cat.

Probably no domestic animal Is tho
object Of such studious neglect DIS the
cat, declares the Milwaukee Free Press.
Because she is undemonstrative, she
almost invariably takes a back seat for

We do not wish to underestimate the

Under favorable conditions she will
also develop a strength Of affection not
devoid of demonstration that is equal
