If every woman who expects to become a mother would heed and read that great book, "The People' Common Sense Med ical Adviser," by Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Ho tel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., there would be stronger mothers and healthier, happier children in this world. In this grand volume several hundred of its thousand payes are devoted to teaching women how to take care of themselves during every trying and critical period of their lives and especially at the time of approaching motherhood. The author of this remarkable work has had a lifetime of practical experience in treating the special diseases and weakness es of women, and is recognized as one of the foremost of living experts in this partic ular field of practice. His " Favorite Pre scription" is the most wonderful medicine ever invented to restore natural organic strength and power to the delicate femi nine structure which is most intimately concerned in motherhood. Taken during the time of anticipation it deprives this ordeal of all its accustomed terrors and dangers ; makes the coming of baby absolutely safe and comparatively painless ; renders the mother strong and cheerful, and helps to endow the child with a strong, healthy constitution. Mrs. Mabel Jordan, of Swoflbrd. Lewis Co.. Washington, writes : " I took Dr. Pierce's Favor ite Prescription until the very last day. We now have a fine, plump little stirl over two weeks old. I suffered leas pain than with any of the others, this being the sixth child, and she has pood health, f at upon the tenth day and drt-QHcd myself something I could not do with theother babies.

The road near Oregon City was covered with crushed rock about one year ago by the county court and the P. i. E. Com pany. The It.wer end of the road was graveled by P. F. Morey for a distance of nearly three miles. The gravel is ap parently w earing better than the crushed rock. If other property ow ners through out the county would follow Mr. Morey'B public spirited action, the farmers of the county would he able to reach mar ket at all seasons of the year.

Applicants for state pipers will present themselves at 9 o'clock a. 111., November 10, II. S. Stiunok, Supt. of Schools for Clackamas Co., Or. ByG. M. Stbanok, Deputy. On Saturday hist the roads k ailing to Cams were well represented, as there whs 11 meeting of the Clackamas County Teachers' Associulion at that placo, Thsre was quite a largo turnout as the j ideal October ilay had a certain element in its m ike up that slirre I the blood and made one feel like being out where the gentle zephyrs and bright sunshine could w ork upon their complexions and rivers of pure uir could flood the lungs. T 10 subjects for the most part were well handled and thera was a certain amount of vim (hut seemed to be lack ing toward the close of 1 he school ses sions, showing that Hie recreations ot summer return the teacher to their vo cation with a new interest in their some what monotonous work. Prof. T. J. Gary occupied the chair In ids usual pleasant and affable manner. We cannot believe bill that big success as a teacher must lay largely in his ability to appear pleasant iii.d to his possession of a voice whoso tones judi cata not only pleasantness of mind, hut a sympathetic nature ntccMary qualifi cation to a teachci'. The"Ttijer on history and geography provoked quits an amount of discussion, hut there waa in them a something that according to our notion greatly mars many of the papers we have heard rend and dicussed at these meetings, and that la this eternal grind about certain text hooks. We are sometimes led to won dvr bow many book companies the teach ers of Clackamas county represent. Nearly every paper w inds up with some reinurk that is anything hut complimen tary to ths authors of the text books chosen for this state, especially those that are published by that great uctopus, the A. li. C. Company, whose awful arms and rapacious maw seems to bo hunting the slumbers of every pedagoge in this region, judging by some of the remarka that are dionnud. We (or our part have never yet been ap proached by any ol the sucker like anna of that terror of thu teacher's dreauiB, by bribe, or otherwise. It is but iiuturd for any instructor to have his or her favorite authors and test books, particularly fur the materittlMhoy contain, mainly, be cause in them they find some things that are inoiu in their line of I bought und ihernhy gains their sympathy. No teacher should depend altogether on on certain book aud they should consider that probably most of thu books is use were written by people, who like them selves were dissatisfied with the books they were using ami so concluded i. . nv.i.

Now then, we do not wish to champion this com pany nor any other, but it does seem as though the board who selected thee books must, have been possessed of or dinury common sense and certainly they had a chanco to judge the merits of the several publications ollered.
