ME THEY WELL? UaiSess ihey are, good health is impcssihSoa Every drop of blood in the body passes through and is filtered by healthy kidneys every three minutes. Sound kidneys strain out the impurities from the blood, diseased kidneys do not, hence you are sick. FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE makes the kidneys well so they will eliminate the poisons from the blood. It removes the cause of the many diseases resulting from disordered kidneys which have allowed your whole system to become poisoned. Rheumatism, Bad Blood, Gout, Gravel, Dropsy, Inflammation of the Bladder, Diabetes and Bright's Disease, and many others, are all due to disordered Kidneys. A simple test for Kidney disease is to set aside ypur urine in a bottle or glass for twenty-four hours. If there is a sediment or a cloudy appearance, it indicates that your kidneys are diseased, and unless something is done they become more and more affected until Bright's Disease or Diabetes develops. . FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE is the only preparation which will positively cure all forms of Kidney and Bladder troubles, and cure you permanently. It is a safe remedy and certain, in results. If You are a sufferer, take FOLEY'S KIDNEY CU3E et once. It will make you well. " Some Pronounced Incurable Mr. G. A. Stillson, a merchant of Tampico, 1111, writes: "FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE is meeting with wonderful success. It has cured some cases here that physicians pronounced incurable. I myself am able to testify to its merits. My face today is a living picture of health and FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE has made it such." Had Lumbago and Kidney Trouble Edward Huss, a well known business man of Salisbury ,Mo., writes: 'I wish to say for the benefit of others, that I was a sufferer from lumbago and kidney trouble, and all the remedies I took gave me no relief. I began to take FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE, and after the use of three bottles I am cured." - fit? Two Sizes. 50 Cents and $1.00. ZZ SGLD MB RECOMMENDED BY CHARjVIAN & CO., CITY DRUG STORE, OREGON CITY, OR. JJ It ia not impossible that at least one of the candidates for the position occupied by the late Charles Tongue in (Jonijress, will come from Oregon uny. w tine trie Democrats are casting about to find a man to lead them in the fight, they will do well to loc k over le timber furnitt ed by this city before going elsewhere. Col. K. A. Miller, wno wa a canuiaaie for congress about two years ago, and defeated by Binger Herman, would be a credit to the Btate if nominated and e- leoted. Among ihe younger Democrats who would also make available timber is Gilbert Hedges There is plenty of good timber here, but the names of two are more frequently mentioned in con nection with the office than those cf any in th'scity. It is a well-known fact that Hon. George C. Brownell, while not an aspirant for the office, would ttill think a good while belore he would turn dowri , a nomination given him by the Republi cans, and his lute successful fight for the presidency of the 3tate senate has put him in a good way to win. The Courier is Democrat and" would like to see a Democratic win and prefers an Oegon Cit Democrat to any one else and put up a strenuous fight' for any Democrat who wins the nomination, but if a Re publican must win, the Courier hopes it will be an Oregon Oity Republican.

Another bill wa passed at the same time flxinir the Balary of the judge of Clackamas county at $1200 per annum. The first bill re stores the countv iudse to his old poaiiion on the board of commissioners, that of chairman. Four years pso. for political reaeonss well-known to Glackamas county people,, a bill was lobbied through the state Legislature establiehir e a separate boards of commissioners and relegatine the county judge t5 the rear. Before that ' time the county business was transacted! through two commissioners and a county" judge. Since that time the county judge has had no part in the transact ions ot ihe county s business, mere v looking after the probate business. In the legislative session of 1901 the salary of the county judge was reduced to f720 per annum. Me will now receive his old salary. $1200 per annum. n nas been evi ent to all who have- watched the course of events that a. board of commissioners should have at their bead the county judge, and Clacka mas county is the only county in the- state that has not been under this sort of ruling.

BLACK-DRAUGHT THE ORIGINAL LIVER MEDICINE allnw ffnmntiiTtnf, ptnl.... 1 biliousness and a coated tongue are common indications of liver and kidney diseases. Stomach and bowel troubles, severe as they are, give immediate warning by pain, but liver and kidney troubles, though less painful at the start, are much harder to cure. Thedford's Black-Draught never fails to bene fit diseased aver and weakened kid neys. It stirs up the torpid liver to throw off the gems of fever and ague. It is a certain preventive of eholera and Bright's disease of the kidneys. With kidneys re inforced bv Thedford'a Black- Draught thousands of persons have dwelt immune in the midst of yel low fever. Many families live in perfect health and have no other doctor than Thedford's Black- Draught. It is always on hand for use in an emergency and saves many expensive calls of a doctor. Mullins. S.
