The umatilla county wheat crop
inatured without the expected June
rain. Granting that the yield would
have been heavier with the rain than it
will be without, the crop is plenty big
enough to manufacture thousands Of
srailes that won't wear off. Editor
Mcleod in his Up To-the- Times Mag
azine notes that "in the Walla Walla
valley and tributary country there has
been nothing like total crop failure
since the country was first developed
20 years ago; in all that time the
worst that could be reported is that
perhaps one year in seven there was
a partial crop failure. This year the
present outlook is encouraging enough;
and when all crops are garnered this
Fall the showing for this country this
season should be one worth while.

ONE. MANS BEST INVESTMENT
Special Account Opened by Man.
ager Of Bio Enterprises Has
Paid BIG Dividends.

An American business man had be-
come convinced of the reasonnbeness
of the doctrine Of mans stewardship.
He had thought II all out and decided
that II might be good thing to try
the experiment. His various business
enterprises had prospered; his income
was constantly increasing; he GER
talnly could do things which he might
have done but had not, One night he
lay awake ponderng the whole mat
ter and before going 10 sleep prayed
over 1t. Then he made up his mind,
says the Christian Herald. Next morn
Ing he instructed his bookkeeper to
open In the ledger new account In
his name, and marked special" TO
which the bookkeeper should regular
ly carry one.tenth of all the profits.
He warned him never to fall to have
the Especial" account ready when
called for.
And that business mans "Special''
has never failed. II has been to him
u. wonderful revelation OF the capacity
Of a man Immersed In big enterprises
for doing good on u large scale as
side line. 1t has helped to build
churches, to promote the gospel, TO
support missionaries, to maintain and
train orphans, TO bring gladness to
homes OF suffering and to many shut
lns. He has had hand In q hun.
dred noble enterprises for Christ aud
humanity And the most extraordl-
nary thing about It Is that Il has
given him new zest for business,
having, as no himself would say rev.
erently, God as a silent partner. II
has not only been means Of bless
Ing his business, but 1t has purified
his whole life, ennobled his chaFac-
ter and made him ten times a better
man.

THE Misery of the
Serbian Retreat

Inc two captains are young, and they do
not seem sorry that the service of their
country has brought them as far as Paris,
the dream city that SO often occupied their
thought when they led the rude and monot-
onous existence of the Serbian garrisons.
Both of them know the cart Of the story
teller" which is not rare in a country where
three-quarters of century ago, travelled
through Serbia, then feddatory to the Turks,
he was not little surprised at the place oc-
cupled by poetry with people of shepherds
and warriors. AS few among them knew
how to read they made use of ballads in
order to grave in their memory the story of
their ancestors. The guzla players were
their natural historians, and every one of
them enriched the Serbian Had by intro
ducing new songs into it. According to a
great German poet popular poetry has been
characteristic of three great peoples
Greece Of the rhapsodies, Spain Of the ro-
mancero and Serbia of the guzla trouba-
dours.
My companions, between two draughts of
champagne, recall the miseries of the Ser
bian retreat-the bitter struggle against
hunger and cold, the battles amid the snow,
one against ten; the exodus of the multi
tudes, men and beasts in terrible con-
fusion, while in the rear of the column
rifles and quick-fring guns do not cease
cracking; the flames of burning villages,
the stragglers and wounded shreking in the
midst of the fire, the women with bare
breasts, seeing in their agony the flock Of
carrion ravens waiting for their prey; the
march of old King Peter, the octogenarian
sovereign, who, to support himself, has for
a staff but rough branch, all broken down
with rheumatism, pursuing his piteous way
through snowy drifts, sorrowfu, bowed
down, and coping with destiny like the
monarchs Of mighty will.
While listening I observe my two Ser
bians. They are tall, strapping, slender,
hardened fellows, with noses strongly
arched like falcons beak They wear
cured up mustachos. From their KEPT
which has the aspect of little house with
an incurved roof, breaks forth. head of
hair of heroic style. They represent the
ideal type of the "artist," such as the SEN
timental young girls dreamed of thirty
years ago; but they have, too, the quiet
and confident air of those habituated to
trife with death. They continue to talk.
They relate the occurrences of a few
months ago, reminding the nearer of the
exploits of Mako Kraliovitch, the Cid of
Serbia, who warred against the vampires
of the forests, armed with reptile for
javelin. And these men, who exchange their
experiences in the Partisan bar, have,
barely few weeks ago, led the implacable
and barbarous existence Of humanity re-
turned to her most cruel, primitive state.

the captains has interrupted his recital to

When the Hyena returned the Loop

he replied that he had not found any.

rearguard of Serbian division retreating
toward the Adriatic coast
My friend commands the rear of the
guard, mass of men that once formed a
company but is now no more than a shape
less multitude. This military unit has been
joined by peasants exhausted through per-
secution and misfortune who move like au-
tomato and who must be driven by force;
the yomen wailing while dragging behind
them their little ones; others, dark COM
plexioned, tall, bony, wrapt in silence, who
bend over the dead and secure their guns
and cartridges. The shadow becomes
animated under the reddenng and feetng
touch of the shots from among the ruins.
From the depths of the horizon answer
other deadly lights. The projectiles pass,
buzzing in the darkness like invisible in
sects of the night.

not know who the enemy are that thus

Left to a Wcrciless
Enema

The captain penetrated into this refuge,
lighted by a smoky lantern. He was seized
by an odor of accomplishing flesh, of blood,
of soled clothes, of foul breaths. No sooner
had he uttered a few words than an agita-
ton seized all those who had still con-
served some energy The meanings ceased
And there was silence mixed with sur
prise and terror, if these poor beings
VINO were about to die could fear anything
worse than death.
On learning that they were to be ahAn-
doned to the power of the enemy all at
tempted to sit up, but most of them fell
back exhausted Then a chorus of desper-
ate applications and mournful lamenta-
lions went up to the captain and the SOL
diers in his escort.
Brothers, brothers, in the name of Jesus,
40 not forsake us!" And yet they were
forced to recognize the necessity of being
left behind and accepting thcir fate with
resignation But to fall into the hands of
the enemy! To become the prey of the
Bulgar or Turk And their e:es completed
what their lips did not dare to prefer. To
be made prisoner, when one happened to be
4 Serbian, was equivalent to 8 curse Many
among them, who, however, fe'r themselves
condemned, trembled at the though: of
losing their liberty For there is something
more terrible than death, and that IS the
vengeance Of the Balkans.
Brother! Brother" The captain, who
knew what these supplications signihed,
avoided looking at them. so you wish
?" he asked them repeatedly And all
bowed their heads as sign of assent.
Since he was obliged to forsake them he
could not go away leaving behind a single
living Serbian. Would he not have asked
the same if he had found himself in their
situation?
The retreat, with its difficulty of getting
supplies, had made munitions scanty. The
combatants kept jealousy the cartridges
with which they were provided. The captain
seized his sword. A few soldiers had pre-
coded him in using their bayonets, but their
work was awkward, noisy, uncertain;
blows struck at haphazard agonies without
