Dyspepsia
Don t think you can cure your dyspepsia
In any other way than by strengthening
and toning your stomach.
That is weak and incapable of perform
ing its functions, probably because you
have imposed upon it in one way or an
other over and over again.

It strengthens and tones the stomach,
and permanently cures dyspepsia and all

THE SMITH-PREMIER WAY.
Durphy & Dlckerman Are as Interesting
f as a Popular Novel. ,
A good illustration of the way the
northwest is being waked np is afforded
by the doings of Durphy & Dickerman,
the energetic firm who control the
Smith-Premier typewriter on the Pa
cific Coast. Tuesday, June 9, W. H.
Durphy, senior member, and F. B.
Porter, Portland manager, arrived in
Portland ; Wednesday they leased the
store, 247 Stark street, and let con
tracts' for fitting up the most com
plete and attractive typewriter estab
lishment in the city; Thursday they
sold 25 Smith-Premier typewriters to
the Behnke-Walker Business college
the largest typewriter order ever placed
in Portland. Mr. Durphy, hale and
hearty, crackling with energy, and
Manager Porter, courteous and compet
ent, master of his business, are calling
upon some dozens of the people a day,
getting acquainted and advertising
their splendid machine and. the fact
that they are sole selling agents for
this coast. This concern is famous
and successful on account of its great
activity and punctilious integrity in
pushing the best typewriter made.
The incoming of fresh blood of this
kind into local commercial circles is
one of the hopeful signs of the hour.
As a sample of up-to-date methods in
"getting busy" Durphy & Dickerman's
25-roa nine order within 24 hours after
an iving in town (better than one ma
s chine an hour) takes the palm.

REFLECT
The mirror never flatters; It tells
truth, no matter how much it may hurt
pride or how humiliating and disagreeable
the reflections. A red, rough skin
beauty, and blackheads, blotches and
are ruinous to the complexion, and no
desperate efforts are made to hide these blemishes, and
cover over the defects, and some never stop to consider
the danger in skin foods, face lotions, soaps, salves
and powders, but apply them vigorously and often with
out regard to consequences, and many complexions
are ruined by the chemicals and poisons contained in these cosmetics.
Skin diseases are due to internal causes, to humors. and poisons in the
blood, ana to attempt a cure by exter
nal treatment is an endless, hopeless
task. Some simple wash or ointment
is often beneficial when the skin is
much inflamed or itches, but you can't
depend upon local remedies for perma
nent relief, for the blood is continually
throwing off impurities which irritate
and clog the glands and pores of
the skin, and as long as the blood re
mains unhealthy, just so long will the
eruptions last. To effectually and per
manently cure skin troubles the blood
must be purified and the system
thoroughly cleansed and built up, and
S. S. S., the well known blood purifier
and tonic, is acknowledged superior to
all other remedies for this purpose. It
is the only guaranteed strictly vegeta
ble blood remedy. .It never deranges
the system or impairs the digestion
like Potash and Arsenic and drugs of this character, but aids in the digestion
and assimilation of food and improves the appetite. Being a blood purifier

FRUIT AS A DIGESTIVE AID.
Pineapplea Are Kspeclally Good for
People A filleted with Dyapepaia.
The partaking of a slice of pineapple
after a meal Is quite in accordance
with physiological indications, since,
though It may not be generally known,
fresh pineapple Juice contains a re
markably active digestive principle
similar to pepsin. This principle has
been termed "bromelln," and so pow.
erful is Its action upon protelds that
it will digest as much as 1,000 times
its weight within a few hours. Its dl
gestlve activity varies In accordance
with the kind of proteld to which It is
subjected. Fibrin disappears entirely
after a time.
With the coagulated albumin of eggs
the digestive process Is slow, while
the albumin of meat its action seems
first to produce a pulpy gelatinous
mass which, however, completely dis
solves after a short time. When a
slice of fresh pineapple Is placed upon
a raw beefsteak the surface of the
steak becomes gradually gelatinous
owing to the digestive action of the
enzyme of the Juice. Of course, It is
well known that digestive agents exist
also in other fruits, but It Is considered
thnt an average-sized pineapple will
yield nearly two pints of Juice It will
be seen that the digestive action of
the whole fruit must be enormous.
The activity of this peculiar digest
ive agent Is destroyed In the cooked
pineapple, but unless the pineapple is
preserved by heat there is no reason
why the tinned fruit should not retain
the digestive power.
The active digestive principle moy
be obtained from the Juice by dlssolv
Ing a large quantity of common .salt
In It, when a precipitate is obtained
possessing the remarkable digestive
powers Just described. Unlike pepsin,
the digestive principle o the pineap
ple will operate In an add, neutral,
or even alkaline medium, according to
the kind of proteld to which It is pre
sented. It may, therefore, be assum
ed that the pineapple enzyme would
not only aid the work of digestion In
the stomach, but would continue that
action In the Intestinal tract. Pine
apple, It may be added, contains much
Indigestible matter of the nature of
woody fiber, but it is quite possible
that the decidedly digestive properties
of the Juice compensate for this fuct

QUEER GRAVES.
The Cromlech Waa in Very General Cm
in the Karly Ag:i of the Hace.
Ever since the advent of man upon
the earth, the question of dlsnosul of
bis remains after death has boon one
of vital Importance. It Is to man's
ever-present desire for a safe and suit
able repository for bis dead that
archaeologists owe much of their
knowledge of prehistoric times; for the
weapons, cooking utensils and other
articles exbuimd from these bvrl.il
places of the ancients unfold many
facts regarding their methods of liv
ing. Of the various places used by the
ancients in which to deposit their dead
the rude stone chamber known as a
cromlech was probably the most often
adopted for any burial other than the
very common ones. Cromlechs are
found In Great Britain, the Channel
Isles, France, Spain, Germany, Den
mark and other European countries;
In Hindustan and other points In Asia;
and In America. The most Interesting
are those found In barrows, or earthen
mounds, for these almost invariably
CROMLECH.ON ISLAND OF GUERNSEY.
contain human skeletons as well as
burial urns and other articles.
The picture shown is an accurate one
of a cromlech which was discovered In
a barrow near Paradls, on the Island of
Guernsey. On digging Into the mound
the large flat top, or cap-stone, of the
tomb was discovered, and when this
was removed the upper part of two
human skulls were exposed to view,
The chamber was filled up with earth,
and as this was gradually removed,
exposing the bones of the entire fig
ures, the latter were found to be in a
good state of preservation. The teeth
and Jaws denoted that they were the
skeletons of adults, but not of old men.
A singular feature in connection, and
one unexplained, Is the fact that the
bodies had been so placed at burial
I that one faced the north and the other
the south. Possibly they were prison
ers or slaves, who were slain perhaps
burled alive at the funeral of some
tribal chieftain or great person whose
body was placed in the larger chamber
near by. This view of the case U
strengthened by the fact that no weap
ons, vases or other articles were burled
with these remains, a sure Indication
of their inferiority.
I GREATER THAN ORATORY.
In his delightful reminiscences, some
chapters of which have been published"
in tne Atlantic Monthly, J. T. Trow
bridge gives an account of Emerson a
an orator. The account is esDeciall
interesting Just now, for the twenty
fifth of May was the centenary of
liuierson's birth.
Emerson was no orator. He had not
the brilliancy and finish of Everett. He
was not witty and familiar like Beech
er, he did not sneak with iiumlrpri nan
slon like Kossuth, and he lacked tim
splendid variety of Wendell Phillips.
but. ne naa a nne baritone voice, broad
and cultivated' just right for his grave
ana epigrammatic wisdom. .
Prof. Lewis Moore, the teacher of
elocution, said to Mr. Trowhrldire at
they walked away together from on
of Emerson's lectures:
"Those tones cannot be taught; they
are possible only to him who can fill
them with the same energy of spirit;
it Is the soul that creates the voice."
That was It. The spirit made the
great speaker, even though he lacked
the histrionic skill of the orator. In
the expression of ethical thought, In
downright moral vehemence, Mr. Trow
bridge says that Emerson was un
equaled. ;
Mr. Trowbridge recalls a night when
Emerson thrilled an Immense audi
ence in Tremont Temple In Boston. It
was in the days of the Kansas Free
State War. Rufus Cboate, with his
brilliant and cynical analysis, had
brushed away the principles of the
Declaration of Independence, which
he speaks of contemptuously as "glit
tering generalities."
Emerson quoted the phrase. Then,
after a moment's pause, he hurled to
the remotest benches thesi words, like
ringing Javelins;
"They do glitter! They have a right
to glitter!"
The concentrated power of that no
orator could have surpassed.
