From the BIuKtoii, Ind., Banner: "When tired out, go home. When you waul consolution, go home. When you want fun, go home. When you want to show others that you have reformed, go home and let your family get aquaiuted with the fact. When you want to show your self at your best go home aud do the act there. When you feel like being extra liberal go home aud practice on your wife and children first. Wheu you want to shine with extra brilliancy go home and light up the whole household." To which we would add, when you have a bad cold go home and take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and a quick cure is certain, for saie by St. Johns Drug store. Our Charges. As is customary, we will charge for card of thanks, 50c; for resolu tions of respect, $1.00; for notices of church or lodge entertainments, suppers, sociables, etc., where there are charges' for admission, 5c per line, but where there are no charges for these events, we will break the rule and insert them free.

' Titles to real property One often hears the expression, "My child cought a severe cold which developed into diphteria," wheu the truth was that the cold had simply left the little one panic ularly susceptible to the wandering diptheria germ. When Chatnder lain's Cough Remedy is given it quickly cures the cold and lessens the danger of diptheria or any other germ disease being contracted. For sale by St. Johns Drug Store.

This tunnel was to have been built last year but scarcity of labor and high prices demanded for the same made the company noid over to tne pres ent time.

The remains were laid to rest in Kiverview cemetery, Portland. Two of our old Hood River friends, Mr, and Mrs. A. C. Statcu, came over yesterday and took lunch with us. We would be glad to keep them here, but they arc married to Hood River and it would take a great deal of sparking on the part of St. Johns to alienate their affections and instigate a divorce suit.
