pared to put up buildings at reasonable fig
ures for all wlio wish to purchase lots in
Jieedy and settle among us.
Needy is one of the most desirable places
for a country town; it is healthy, receiving
a continual breeze of pure air from the
snowy ak of Mount Hood. It is sur
rounded by a good furrningcountry, the soil
being productive of all kinds of small grain,
hay, and fruits of all descriptions. We
have plenty of water here which can be util
ized for all kinds of manufacturing estab
lishments. We think a grist mill would be
a good Investment for some enterprising
miller; and a fruit and vegetable cannery
would also do well.

You may talk about the pathos
In the hscUhlpsof the war;
You may talk about the glory
Of the causa that you taught for;
But there's nothing 10 patbetie
At the lewoii wt receive
From the ulet, idle flapping
Of the useless empty sleeve.
You may talk about the march,
Scant rations and "hard tack,"
Of "the last drop In the canteen,"
And "the empty haversack ;"
There's nothing so convincing In
The impresslonsthat you leave
As the ever sweehless record
Of the useless empty sleeve.
You may Ssak of southern prisons,
But their horrors could not last ;
Of the roar and din of battle
And, thank Ood, that, too, has passed.
But we see a grim reminder
Kery morn and mam and eve,
Of the living, shaking presence
Of the useless eniptyjsleeve.
Soldiers dock the graves of comrades
With the laurel that they won;
Poets sing of gallant h:ors
And of deeds of great renown;
But there ' naught in poets' anthems
Or the cbaplets that they weave,
That ran beat the touching story
Of the useless empty sleeve.

wealthiest and most influential citizens In the

sunering from pains in my back and general kid
ney complaint for some time, and hndused many
remedies without any but temporary relief The
pains in my back had become so severe that I was
prevented from attending to my work and could
not move about without the use of a csne. Hear
intr, through a friend, of the wonderful cures ef.
fected by Oregon KidneyTes, I wss Induced to try
a boi, and from that very first dose I found instant
relief, and before using half the contents of the
box the pains in my back entirely disappeared.
I have every (alth in the virtues of the Oregon
KidneyTes, and can conscientiously recommend
it to my friends. I would not be without it for
anything."
Oregon Kidney Tea cures backache, inconti
