wIrE-MApE MEN

The first passion of woman is her love for her children
 Is that true?
 If it is true, her second passion is her desire to make man of her hus- band.
 We hear much about self men. It might do us lot of good to hear more about wifemade men.
 There are lot of them. Many of the best men in the world-the great est in statesmanship, science, art and literature-have freely acknowledged their indebtedness to women. Perhaps to their wives they are indebted-pos- sibly to other women.
 A wise wife is she who completely fills her function, being comrade and source of inspiration. If she docsn t do it some other woman may. Not ev, cry wife earnestly seeks to be help full companion. Nor every one who tries succeeds.
 Ths wife who contributes to her bus bands uplift and helps to enlarge his vision must not be denied high credit for his career. The best part of many man is the femininity which comes from his wife. High character which counts for his success may have orig mated in her. His ideals may have come from her; to her he may owe his purposes.
 And her joy in it is exquisite. This is a woman s greatest work. next tc the rearing of her children--if it is second to that. And in all great work there is keen pleasure.

THE POWER OF FAITH.

The British Medical Journal says that patient who believes that noth- ing can save him helps to seal his own doom.
 That is to say, all the skill and ex- perience of the physician are of little avail unless they are augmented by the faith of the patient.
 The popularity or sle Various forms of faith-healing seems to attest that there is much in it.
 The body is the slave of the mind. To imagine yourself i'll is actually to be i'll. To will yourself well is often to become well.
 It has now been made an open ques- tion whether the presence and the drugs of the physician are not of importance primarily because they excite faith.
 It is a curious parodox that truth dwells only in compromise.
 Therefore the doctrines of the ex- treme faith headers must be regarded with suspicion.
 We know that broken leg cannot be set by faith, or a decayed tooth re- moved by the mere desire to have good teeth.
 But it is certain that faith--so acute ly defined by the Apostle Paul as "the substance of things hoped for''--can actually cause certain physical pains to disappear, and that, joined to common sense, its power is almost limitless.
 Desire to attain certain qualities of character will lead, if the desire is strong enough, to their attainment.
 One is vitally of aspiration and the power of faith do not act as directly on the body as they do on the charac- ter. They are hampered by grosser conditions and limitations. But, never actuated by keen ambition to be innumerable examples of the sickly man, theless, their power is great. There are strong, becoming almost miraculously robust--healed by faith in the feasi- bility of his throwing of his ills.
 The biblical invitation to the physi- clan to heal himself is nowadays often addressed to the patient.
 Be wise and temperate, learn the benefits of fresh air and exercise, and believe that there is nothing much the matter, and you will be we'll, during most of your days at any rate. Faith may remove mountains. Ger. tainly then it can remove the woes of the hypochordrisc and the jumpy neurotic.

THE CONSERVATIVE COMMISSION

Conservation of natural resources by the conscious and concerted action of national and state authorities, proba- bly, the most brilliant piece of con structive statesmanship initiated by the Roosevelt administration, is knocking at the doors of congress for official recognition. The president asks that the conservation commission be legal ized, and that fund be provided for it's maintenance and the continuance of it's work, hitherto conducted at private expense. The sum needed is $50,o ,o0o, less than one-tenth the amount added to the national expenditure by the pri- vate pension bills enacted at the first session of this congress as a perquisite of membership in either house. Let the thoughtful citizen judge whethe- the Roosevelt policy of conservation Is less worthy of consideration and of a moderate tax on the public treasury than the congressional policy of grind ing out private pension bills to help out the folks in 'my district.' The one is a national policy and the other paro- chial, and the difference between the two illustrates the diametrically oppo- site angles of the executive and the congressional viewpoints.
 In his message of transmittal, Mir. Roosevelt refers to the conservation commissions report as "in peculiar sense representative of the whole nation and all its parts If this is true, will 1t not be singular if congress, supposed to be similarly representative of the whole nation and all it's parts, should be unresponsive to the eloquent appeal Of the chief executive in behalf of fund amental task upon which he believes the nation should at once enter, and enter with the guidance and assistance of the commission that has formulated in de tail the policy of conservation? In no way, as the president says, will the ap. propriation of so small sum prove of such benefit to the nation as by it's em ployment in elaborating means for the development and preservation of our material resources in mine and forest, in soil and waterways. And no act would be more creditable to this expiring con gross than that of giving form and per. manence to the policy of national con servation of those material element. which are the foundation of national greatness.

GETTING SORT OF HOT AROUND
 THE SENATE.

The United States senate is said to be worried over the spread of the lore gon idea by which is meant the ap- plcation of popular primary elections to the choice of senators.
 We hope this is true. For in propor- tion as the senate has cause to be wor- ried, the people have cause to rejoice.
 The spread of the oregon idea" is the best thing that has happened to the country for 122 years. The fact that 1t has spread to twenty seven states should fill each citizen with twenty seven varieties of thanksgiving. And then there should be room for a prayer for the nineteen states into which the "oregon idea has not yet penetrated. In it's final working out, the lore gon idea" will furnish way to secure the popular election of United States senators. The only other way to this result was by an amendment of the constitution. And that has been block ed by the senate itself
 The senate has been guilty of grave wrong in this matter. It Is provided by the constitution that amendment shall originate in two-thirds vote of congress, and that such proposals shall be submitted to the legislatures of the states, or to constitutional conventions called for such purpose. In spite of the fact that the legislatures of no less than twenty states have passed resolutions favoring such & constitutional amend ment, the senate has consistently re fused to consider or vote on this prop osition, and thus has refused to give the people their constitutional right te consider and vote upon it.
 It thus comes about that the people have taken the affair into their owr hands, and are amending the constitu tion in the same way they did in tha' part applying to the election of a presi dent. Instructions to their representa- tives is the remedy for misrepresenta tive government.
