Easy to take, easy to operate- ' Hood's Pills A bill has been introduced in tho legislature at the instance of Good win Brown, to whom New York and other cities in the state owe the laws making mandatory the free public baths, providing that all holders of liquor tax certificates shall keep on sale, along with their intoxicating liquors, milk, tea, oof fee and chocolate. ThiB is a prac tical temperance measure, which ought to be on the statute books. .A great deal of the liquor drinking now done in the saloons is due not to a special craving for alcohol, but to need for refreshment and lo habits of good-fellowship. If it were as easy to get a cup of hot chocolate over a bar as a glass of whiskey, many a man would go home sober who now goes home drunk. The saloon is the poor man's club. In it he finds warmth, light, companions, a chance to vitit and a chance to read the papers. Central Market T. E.

ELWOOD, Jeweler and Optician Regarding tho mippry and vnluo ol Oregon timber, Prof. Oarman, in a paper published in tho sixth bi- fiininl report of tho stato bonrd of horticulture, save: "The fact is not generally known even in this Htnto, that Oogon po- 89CHses a much greater amount of standing timber than any other stuto in tho Union nt tho presont time, vii: 234,003,000,000 feet, board measure." During the year 1399, the over 300 sawmills in Oregon out 689, 050,000 feet of lumber, valued tit 0,2(18,250. At this ratio the value of our present standing timber, uhun cut into lumber, would equal the enormous sum of $2,18-2-,0OO,-000. When we are told that the saw mi, Is are cutting 660,050,00 feet of lumber annually, the first dread is that our forests will soon bo an nihilated, but a little arithmetic will dispell this sudden fright. Al lowing that sawmills and ex nu n work up the equivalent of 700,000, 000 feet, board measure, per year, the present forest will give them constant employment for 335 years or until the year A. E. 2236, During the years thrtt it will tuke to use up the present crop of stand ing timber, the natural growth will go on and what are tiny plants now will be great trees then.
