STATE SAVES ON PRINTING Dnnlnay Does More Than Double Work at Less Cost. SALKM. Or., Nov. S. (Special.) In 1905 the House and Senate journals cost the state .R5 per volume.

Section 4. lood And Skin Purification Is Best and Most Quickly Accomplished By Using Stuart's Calcium Wafers. Ever since the world began, man kind has suffered from various forms of skin and blood diseases. We find mention of certain diseases of the skin In writings which have come to us from periods of greatest antiquity, es pecially those of the Greeks, Egyp tians and Hebrews, many of the dis eases being described with great minuteness. The glands of the skin are known as the sebaceous, or oil glands, and the sudoriparous or sweat glands. The sebaceous glands secrete the oil, and their main duty is to keep the skin soft and flexible. When these glands fail to act sufficiently, there is a dry, harsh condition of the skin, which be comes wax-like in appearance; but if they are over-stimulated, as in certain nervous and blood diseases, too much oil is secreted and poured out on the skin's surface,, giving the appearance of "oily skin," or "greasy complexion." as it is termed. When this condition is present, dust particles settle upon the skin and adhering to the oily surface, block up 'the outlets to both the' oil and sweat glands. rrhe muscles of the skin, which are in a way connected with the sebaceoum and sweat glands, play an important part in keeping the pores and glands open, as each time the muscles con tract, pressure is made upon the glands, and their contents more or less forced out. The skin of the face does not have the advantage of this muscular aid in the expulsion af the glandular secretions, and therefore very readily becomes clogged with impurities, thus furnishing one of the principal rea sons for the prevalence of pimples and blackheads upon the cheeks. In nearly every form of skin dis ease and clogging of the glands the blood is primarily at fault, being filled with, impurities which, through weak ness or perverted function, it is unable to eliminate properly. Of all the remedies on the market for the cure f skin and blood dis eases. STUARTS CALCIUM WAFERS have, after many tests, been pronounced the most efficient and powerful. They have been remarkably successful in curing pimples, blackheads, clogging of the oil and sweat glands, carbuncles, eczema, scrofula, ulcers, and many other skin humors arising from an im pure condition of the blood. They tone up the skin glands so that a normal amount of oil is secreted, and through their use one need not suffer from either an oily skin or an abnormally dry .skin. The perspiration glands are also made to functionate normally, and as the blood is at the same time purified, all forms of skin troubles are terminated and cured.
