THE HEART ENGINE.

a great physician once remarked,
says Dr. Andrew Wilson, that. despite
its compleXity, there was no organ of
the body reader to adapt itself to cir
cumstances or more capable of re-
paying ordinary care than the heart.
This is very true, and an appreciation
of that fact should cause us all the
more carefully to follow the wise
mans advise and to keep our heart
with all diligence. When we have re-
gard to the tremendous work the
heart accomplishes, we might we'll
with Webster say: Strange that harp
of thousand strings should keep in
tune so long"
Estimated in scientific fashion, a
mans heart in "a hours performs an
amount of work which, if represented
by the energy demanded for big lift,
would raise 190 tons weight one foot
high. Such a calculation can be ac-
curately determined by measuring the
force expended in one beat or cycle
of movement of the heart and multi
plying the short work into that of
the day. Thus in no small degree
does the hearts labor contribute to
swell the big total of the energy the
human engine expends each day it
lives.-New York World.

Meade's victory would doubtless be
given the regulars,
For many years following the big
war the regulars were engaged in
fighting the Indians of the western
plains, In the blazing heat of the
Arizona deserts they chased Geronimo
and his Apaehes and up in the bad
lands they tanned the Sioux. But for
the hard and perlous work they did
the regulars received but little thanks.
That the regular has been over
looked is not surprising, The pride
% this country is in the citizen SOL
diery, not in the regular army. The
volunteer is justly entitled to the chief
glory. He goes out when he is need
ed; while with the regular fighting is
matter Of business. In times OF
peace the regular is looked upon as
a lazy and "ornery" fellow. In many
he is. But the fact remains
that he is a good fighting man and
that is the chief requirement of
soldier.

A PROPER MOVE.

The people of Weston have done
we'll to arrange for four year high
school course in the public schools of
that town. The action taken will be
OF benefit to Weston in several ways.
For one thing the existence of good
high school will place the town in
better position to ask that the East
ern Oregon normal school be sus-
tained under the initiative
In the past one of the stock argu-
ments against the normals has been
that they were local high schools
That this charge was not true with re-
spect to the Eastern oregon school Is
fully shown by the fact that but 19
ner cent of the students at Weston
were from Umatilla county. The re-
mainder were from various parts Of
eastern oregon. Many attended from
Union and Wallowa counties. At one
time there were more students en-
rolled from Union than from Una
tilla county. The charge that the
Eastern Oregon normal was a To-
cal school was not we'll founded.
Now that the people of Weston
have arranged for high school
course the high school should be con-
tinued even if the normal is re-
vived. In reality students should not
be admitted to normals until they
have had at least two years of high
school work. When normals are
again provided for in this state, as
they assuredly will be, the standard
for admission will doubtless be raised
IT should have been raised before and
there would then have been less an
tagonism to the schools. However
the fact that the normals were moi
as strong as they should have beer
in this regard was not sufficient rea'
son for trying to kill them. The de
feet could easily have been remediet
and would have been remedied in due
time.

THE SEATTLE FAIR.

In the A-Y-P exposition all the
northwest should feel strong inter-
est. In the benefits to be derived from
the fair all sections of the northwest
will share. People will come out from
the central and eastern states to see
the fair and the entire west should
profit by their coming. Washington
as we'll as oregon gained by the Lewis
& Clark exposition, and Oregon should
profit by the Seattle fair.
1t is unfortunate that in the man.
agement of the fair some blunders
have been made. For some reason
the fair directors seem to have lacked
in diplomacy and as result consider
able friction has occurred. But the
little squabbles that have arisen have
not been serious and they should be
forgotten. The fair was prompted by
the bustling spirit of progress that
permeates Seattle and the entire
northwest. This spirit will make the
fair a. success.

STILL ADVANCING.

Up near Helix wheat ranch has
been sold for SIS per acre. Old res
idents of this county we'll remember
the day when land in that section
and in other good sections of this
county was regarded as worthless for
farming. The early timers thought
that only the creek bottom and foot
hill land was good for farming. The
first wheat raisers were looked upon
as dreamers. Yet millions and mill
lions of dollars have been made off
this same land and it is steadoly ad-
vancing in value.
There are some who claim that
land is becoming too high-that
wheat land is not worth the fabulous
prices it brings in this county But
the land near Helix and in other Sec
tions of the wheat belt will not al
ways be mere wheat lands" The
land in this county is suited for a
higher stage of agriculture. Through
out the wheat belt the annual rain
fall averages g inches. Does this
seem light? Then just remember that
irrigation experts hold that an acre
foot of water, or u inches of water
in one year, is sufficient to reclaim
desert land. So it seems that the
rainfall in this county is heavy
enough for all purposes if the mois-
ture can be conseYed. Each year
formers are learning more and more
how to conserve the moisture. AS ad-
vancement is made along this line a
higher and higher state of agricul-
ture is made possible and land be-
comes worth more accordingly.

THE RIVER OF LIFE.


The more We live, more brief appear
our life's succeeding stages;
A day to childhood seems year.
And years like passing ages.
The gladstone current of our youth,
Ere passion yet disorders,
Steals lingering, like river smooth,
Along its grassy borders.
But as the careworn cheek grows wan
And sorrows shafts fly thicker,
Ye stars, that measure life to man,
Why seem your course quicker?
When joys have lost their bloom and
breath.
And life itself Is vapid,
Why, as We near the Fails of Death,
Feel We its tide more rapid?
1t may be strange-yet who would
change
Times course to slower speeding,
When one by one our friends have
gone,
And left our bosoms bleeding?
Heaven gives our years of failing
strength
Indemnifiying fleetness.
And those of youth, a seeming length,
Proportioned to their sweetness.
Thomas Campbell.

THE FIGHTING MEN.

When President Taft dedicated the
Gettysburg monument to the soldiers
of the regular army a just and long
deferred tribute was paid the brave
men who in the past have served
this country as members Of the
standing army.
The United States is not military
country and in the wars it has fought
most Of the fighting has been by vol
unteers. At least this is the accepted
notion Of the matter AS matter OF
fact the best work has often been done
by the regulars. In the Spanish war
the regulars constituted the backbone
OF tine American army. The regulars
were we'll trained, we'll differed and
they fought with the greatest bravery
whenever they were engaged. The re-
gulars were the real heroes Of San
Juan. Had It not been for the gallant
work Of a colored regiment Of regu-
lars Roosevelts famous rough riders
would not have returned home in the
numbers they did. The fact is known
to army men but Of course the aver
age citizen who gets his information
from the newspapers is filled with the
idea that the volunteers and especi-
ally the Rough Riders did It all.
In the civil war also the regulars
did good work and II the truth were
known much credit for General
