Build Up
Your Brain...
Steady your nerves, and
perfect your digestion
by using bread map
from our whele wheat
flour. It is made from
the whole wheat berry,
except the outside bull
or bran, which is a woody
substance, irritating and
indigestible. Bread made
lrom this flour is not so
white as that made from
the pale white roller flour,
but is far superior for
food as it contains all the
gluter, germ, and oily
matter of the wheat and
is much sweeter than
grahnin or any other
bread not sweetened
artificially.

HARMONY.
Our school will elose June
Rev. E. Maurer, pastor of the Evan
gelical church on this circuit, has been
transfered by the conference to Salem.
Rev. Mr. Strayfeller will take his place.
After all, the spring will be late. So
much cold weather and rain have kept
back growing crops. Fruit trees are
not in full leaf yet. S much rain has
fallen that the ground will not do to be
worked before a week after it stops
raining.
Work on the Price Fuller road has
commenced. The stumps have been
Harry Spencer and family of Wilson-
ville have moved back to Canemah.
He is a native of this place and it seems
as If all natives return to Canemah in
the end.
Mr. Lowry, who was hurt a short time

was the chief medicine that cured him .
Mr. Ganong of Strlngtown has been
out electioneering for the past week.
He is one that does not feel like turning
populist just now.
Mr. Strange was drowned over in the
locks last Thursday night. Tbe funeral
service were held at the Presbyterian
church of Oregon City, Sunday at two
o'clock. A large number of people
witnessed the burial, Including the
lodges viz : , Free Masons and A. 0. U.
of which he was a prominent mem
ber. He leaves a wife and three chiiu
ren, besides his many friends, to mourn
his tors.
The Canemah school will close Fri
day, May 20th, with appropeate e xer
cises. Tbe last three months of school
has been very successful in every par
ticular. But it has not a very long list
of visitors that came to note the pro
gress. Now, both frientfs and enemies
of education, should not miss the clos
ing exorcises. Every one will be ad
mitted free of charge.
.Mr. Hackett of Park Place has taught
several terms of school here, and each
one has been a credit to Canemah . As
he is now named on the democratic
ticket for assessor, there is no reason
why he should not make a success of
that. Every honest voter should con
sider, his personal knowledge, capability
and honesty before voting for any other
person . A man is known by his actions
and I can truthfully say that Mr. Hack
ett was never, known to awindiu a fellow
person, so he will no doubt, dj justice
toward the county. Consider the mat
ter and not only consider but reason
so that your considerations will be in
favor of E. C. Hackett.
