The following interview with Hon , L. L. Porter, regarding the county com missioners bill that retires Judge Ryan, appeareil in Monday's Teleram. It is a gem and should be framed and hung up by every farmer and republican in the county : "We who had these measures passed have been working for the best inter est of the county. But I (ear we are be ing misjudged, even by our constituents, in some Instance?. The reason the present judge was retired from the chair manship of the board of commissioners was in order that we might have a man appointed from out of the corporate limits of Oregon City. Clackamas county is not like Multnomah county Here the greater part of the. taxes are paid outside of the city. So those out aide voters claim, and . reasonably mat they should be represented more than they have been . This has been the cry for years. The peo ple w ill see that these moasures are their best interests. We cannot afford to antagonize or ignore the rights of the citizens In this county. I have been supported in these cliangeg by represen tatives of an entirely different party in politics because they know it is for the beet." OLD FRIENDS.

"Who Would ever believe that she In the mother of five children." These were the words that caught the ear of the Woman Reporter as she moved anion? the throng at a fashionable reception. Just before her stood the hostess, a young-look ipg, hand some woman receiving her quests with that air of hearty vivacious enjoyment which all the world considers as the special pre rogative of youth. There was sparkle in her eyes, a soft clear natural color in her cheeks; she had a firm and romided form, and that steau easy poiw or Ihe whole body which be. tokens strong limbri and healthy nerves. It was the Reporter's business to be curi ous; moreover, she was a woman; and re ceiving; gracious permission to call on the following day, she duly presented herself armed with a hundred such questions ae only a woman nan ask. "Yes, I have five children" said the hostess, with a tone of earnest happy pride; "hope I'll have five more. I love every one df them. They are good children too, and a comfort to me all the time." 'You can't understand it of course, and my friends wonder that 1 keep my health and strenr.'th and do my work; but that I take care of myself is the reason. I never nsed to be strong. I was thoughtless and carelesa After my first baby came I was all broi.en down and prayed that I might never have another, but I have learned better and I am stronger now than I ever was in my life." "Women break down because thev e-n without the little extra help they need to tide them over hard places. When a worn an expects to become a mother she ought to be at her verv best But that is exartlv the time when most women feel weak and sick and miserable. They grow melan choly and anxious as the time approaches and when it comes they have no strength or stamina of body or mind to go through the ordeal." ' No wonder thev suffer and nearlv il sometimes, and are all broken down for months or years. If they would take the right care of themselves and strengthen themselves in a natural way, they would never suffer as they do; and instead of dreading to have children they would wel come them as a real blessing." It Is simply a case of a 'stitch In t tne saves nine or rather nine hundred. A lit tle natural reinforcement at the time when baby is expected will save months, nerhnna years of suffering and weakness. At such a time I always take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription; it invariably gives me the ex tra strength and healthv nerve-nowcr whioh a woman needs to bring Iter baby into the World safely and comfortably." " It is the most wonderful thing in the world to build up a woman's nervous sys tem and strengthen the special organism of motherhood. It gives you the recuper ative power that a woman cannot get in any other way. It carries you throiiKh the nursing time beautifully; it helps you to nourish the baby and make him hearty and. strong too. My four younger children are the sturdiest youngsters you ever saw. This one grand 'Favorite Prescription' has made me the healthy, happy mother I am." "I can tell you of a dozen women who have had almost the same experience as mine. I saw a letter written by Mrs. Jennie . Jackson, who lived at Fergussons Wharf, n Isle of Wight Co., Va. These are her own words: I have enjoyed better health since taking Dr. Pierce's medicine than I have since I have been married. I can work hard all day and sleep well at night I was almost gone when I wrote to Doctor Pierce three vrars niro. .. I . bad ntertna trouble verv badlv. but. thank the Lord. I am very well now. My doctor did not have any faith in 'patent medicines,' but he says, 'something has done you good.' 1 tried many different medicines and got no better until I tried Dr. Pierce's medi. clnes. The first bottle gave me ease. I have taken six bottles of ' Favorite Pre scription ' and I feel as well as ever In my life, and can work hard all day and do as much walking as I ever did. I was nothing but a skeleton. I was so thin in flesh that it hurt me to lie down." I think Dr. Pierce has done more to. ward making healthy, happy women than any other man in this country."
