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

CORRESPONDENCE.
CANBY CAMP MEETING.
The attendance at the Methodist camp
meeting here has been large, notwith
standing the heat. A small admission
fee has been charged at the gate, and
freely paid, to meet tlie expenses of fit
ting up the grounds. This method was
adopted instead of the old one of taking
up a collection. The receipts have been
greater than at any meeting for years
past, and the amonnt has been equally
distributed among saints and sinners.
About a dozen preachers and several
layman and woman, who are good lead
ers, have been present to help in three
or four meetings each day. The great
tabernacle has been well whitewashed,
giving it a fine, clean appearance, as seen
through the green shade trees. dif
ficult problem, touching an abundance
of water to meet the demand of the
crowds, has been successful! solved. A
large new spring has been opened, and
a pump worked by a water wheel run
from the overflow, sends the water into
a tank on the ground, convenient for all.

CANEMAH.
Mrs. Alderman of Woods is visiting
her daughter, Mrs. Edmunds.
Master Ben Day of Portland was visit
ing friends in Stringtown Sunday. He
lelt Stringtown about 8 years ago and
moved to California, but recently came
back to Portland. He was quite a small
boy when he lived here but it seemed
natural to him here.
Mrs. Painter and son left for the Soda
Springs Monday. On the Biune day
Harry Kpeucer and some of the would
be's started for tho coast. Canemah
seems to be quite empty at present.
The persons who read the news from
Canemah may be a little puzzled as to
the meaning of Stringtown. Stringtown
is situated above Canemah, on the
Willamette river. There is no distance
between tho two places, for as soon
as Canemah endB, Stringtown com
mences. It is alxmt a mile long and a
house wide ; so tho name has a simple
origin.
Prof. Griffith, the phrenologist, gave
a series of lectures Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday evenings of last week.
His lectures were very interesting but
were poorly attended. He stated tha'
the people were only half civilized,
which, I think applies to Canemah in
every respect, although he probably
meant people outside of Canemah.
The fruit as well as potatoes is a fail
ure in this part of the country. The
only pure crop that the farmers of String
town see ahead is the tax levy of '97.
The board of school directors have en
gaged Mr. Hackett of Park Place and
Miss Chase of Oregon City as teachers
for the ensuing term, which will begin
in the fall. Both persons have taught
several successful terms of school here
and have given satisfaction to the people.

STAFFORD.
The young people met last Friday and
putting strong sills under the old school
bouse moved it on to a corner of Mr,
Pol ilka' s place, which he had kindly
offered them for the purjiose, leaving the
old school house hill vacant for the new
building. The old house has stood there
for nearly 23 years, and witnessed many
changes. It was at first built by work
and subscription, 20 feet square. The
district then numbered 17 pupils all told,
two of them Mrs. Larson aud Mrs.
Barnes, now of Tualatin, being under
age, were counted in by the enterprising
clerk. After about seven years it had
grown so that they saw fit to enlarge it
15 feet and now the pupils of school age
number over 80, I believe. Thus the
country grows.
The young people are going to fit up
the old building for literary puroses.
Kichard Meuhaner has been very sick.
His father also has been sick, caused,
they thought, by the beat and hard
work.
It is very smoky, which has been a

A number from here attended the

They report a very instructive and
pleasant time.

Mr. Editor: With your permission I
should like to ask through the Courier
if Mr. Latourette is willing to take silver
in payment for any notes ho might
hold, or is he thinking of calling in all
his double-eagles and hoarding them up
until silver gets down to where the green
backs were during t he reliellion?
