The Yakima Republic, July 13:
Notwithstanding tho stories that
have been circulated about tho big
crop of hops in America and Europe
and the low prices that will prevail
this fall the buyers are offering an
advance of 1 cents per pound on
contrncts over what was paid two
weeks ago.
Contracts have been made freely
this spring at 10 cents per 'pound.
During tho last few days there has
been a stiffening in prices and 11 .
cents is now being offered. Some o"f
the growers have even refused this
offer.
, The indications are that Yakima
will produce as many If not more
hops than she did last year. The
vines nro showing up in good shape
and tho hot weather has killed the
vermin. Tho predictions are that
Oregon will produce a crop equal to
that of last year and that the west
side will show up this season with
about as many as last year. Califor
nia will probably produce a crop
slightly in excess of last year, ac
cording to all reports.

General debility is a term that cov
era n multitude of cases wIicto tliore is
no acuto disease, yet tho pationt con
tinues to loso strength nnd tho doctor's
medicines have no apparent effect.
This is the decline that lends to denth
if means are not found1 to check it. In
a great majority of tho cases Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills will check it and re
store! henlth and strength because- they
actually maka new blood and so send
ronowed vitality to every organ and
tissuo of tho body.
Mrs. S. A. Green, whoso address Is
Box 29, R. P. D. No. 4, Franklin, Gn.,
says: "For three and a hulf years I
suffered from weakness and nervous
ness, complicated with stomach troublo
At times I was confined to my bed for
periods ranging from threo weeks to
two months, and was under tho phy
sicans enro most of tho timo for three
yems. I do not know tho cause of
my trouble, but I was prostrated with
weakness, and, although I took a great
dettl of medicine, nothing soomed to
give mo strength. At times my stom
ach hurt me something iearful, and my
hoad often troubled me. I was sleep
loss, and what sleep I got did not re
fresh me.
"When! I began taking Dr. Wil
liams ' Pink Pills, because a friend in
sisted on it, I weighed 104 pounds.
I knew I was so bad that a few dosei
would not cure me, and I had patience
Soon thci pills began to givo me

help some with the housework. Now I
weigh 130 pounds, and think nothing
of walking half a mile. Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills have done wonders for me,
and tho neighbors all know this state
ment to be true."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually
make now blood. That is all thoy "do,
but they do it well. Thoy don't act
on tho bowels. They won't cure any
disease that is not cured by bad blood.
They cure anaemia, rheumatism, head
aches and many forms of weakness io
the most direct manner, and, as the
nrtves depend upon tho blood for nour
ishment, thoy strike at tho root of
such' diseases as neuralgia, sciatica,
partial paralysis and have been used
with the greatest benefit, even in casej
of locomotor ataxia.

London, June 29. Tho situation
In the plantnltlons has not Improved.
Though washing has been general,
many gardens having been sprayed
three or four times, yet there Is a
further attack of "fly." Much of
the bine is very backward, but there
is plenty of time for It to fill In be
tween now and August; the forcing
weather of last week has helped the
growth where tho hops have been
well done.

An Undutif ul Wife.
A most interesting and amusing
caso of wifely insubordination is re
pented from Washington. It appears
that tho navy department is following
the example of somo of the other do
pantmrats, of tho government, and
putting a bam upon mnnriago, it having
recently issuedl nn order that wives
of officers shll not accompany thci.?
husbands when these aro on official
business. Of course, this virtually
breakn up tho dloine'ic Ufo of such
officers ns spend tho mos-t of their time
ns they should, in attending to
their duty. Protests have been many,
but ono woman has obstinately refused
to bey bath her hubnml nd the
government, :ia nppea's from this let
