I suffered with fallincr and con gestion of the womb, with severe pains through the groins. I suf fered terribly at the time of men struation, had blinding headaches and rushing of blood to the brain. What to try 1 knew not, for it seemed that I had tried all and failed, but I had never tried Wine of Cardui, that blessed remedy for sick women. I found it pleasant to take and soon knew, that I had the right medicine. New blood seemed to course through my veins and after using eleven bottles' I was a well woman. Mrs. Bush is now in perfect health because she took Wine of Cardui for menstrual disorders, bearing down pains and blinding headaches when all other remedies failed to bring her relief. Any sufferer may secure health by tak ing Wine of Cardui in her home. The first bottle convinces the pa tient she is on the road to health.

We. are taking subscriptions for a co operative store here on the Rochdale system. Over $.000 subscribed. Say, Shirley, who is the Socialist can didate for President, eh f Colton . The citizens of Colton and Elwood have been placed under a shadow of gloom by the accidental death of a friend and neighbor, Emery Uottberg, who met his death near Kainier, Oregon, on May iz, l'JUi. tie acciuentiy tea across a circular paw in the mill where he was employed. He waa 22 years and ten days old and waa born at New Denmark, Wis., in 182, and moved to Colton, Oregon, with his parents when a small child. He was married August 15, 1902 to Miss.Della Hinderson, of Elwood.

Card of Thanks We wish to thank our many friends and neighbors who so kindly assisted us during the burial of our dearly loved husband, eon and brother. Mrs. Delia Qottberg, Mrs. B. Gottberg, Emery Gottberg, Nellie, Chas. and Edward Gottberg, MABQTJAM. At a meeting of the citizens of Mar quam and vicinity held in the Grange Hall on the evening ot May 10, it was unanimously decided to hold a celebra tion on Butte Creek near the Jack bridge a mue from Marquam in the lovely maple grove on the banks of the creek. We hone to interest Bilverton, Scotts Mills, Molalla and other places in mak ing this one of the old time Marquam celebiatioiiB which iu the past were al ways so'well attended, A host of the committees have already been appointed by the chairman, B. Jack, among them the finance commit tee aud a part of the program'cotnmittee. Posters will be printed soon as the pro gram committee can arrange for them. It is not intended to spend time, money and advertising in making noise but in making an old-time patriotic celebration with good music, good, speak ing and plenty cf field sports. The grove that has been selected Is one admirably iitted by nature for the occasion, a broad, grassy plot, shadua by large broad-leafed maple trees, wiln plenty of shade lor t cams, and on the banks of one of the liveliest streams iu Oregon, which while separating Marion from Clackamas county, seumn only io bind them more closely together. Our town lias been somewhat dull for the p:int two wuuIsh, owing to the fann ers being busy iiuishing up farming. We have been Informed that we are to vote upon a law at our coming elec tion to compel farmers to keep up their cattle. It seems that such a law at the preeent lime would be death to the cattle busineBB, in this section at least. Nearly every farmer in parts of the county pasture and fatten cattle in the mountains each sumrier, and with such a law in force the mountain range for stock would be a thing of the past, We have heard some remark that advocates such a law, faying it would not affect the mountain rangers, bnt right there, they are mistaken, as we know of men who have small ranches in the moun tains that would quickly take advantage of Htinh a law and prohibit people from letting their cattle run at large. Such a law might be a benefit were it confined strictly to farming communities, but not where it embraces the wholo country. W, O. Vaughan, K. Cribble and D. O. Boyles started to Eastern Oregon last Tuesday morning. They are going to the desert country, south of Prineville. They expect to bring in from six to eight span of choice work horses. They will probably come back with Jackson Hughes and Dungan, who are bring ing in a large band of horses. They will arrive early in Jnne. They expect to drive to The Dalles and ship down the river as the mountain roads will hardly be free of snow at that time. Two more telephone wires were put up within the past few days, leading from here to the Russellville country. Bennie Johnson was taken to Portland hospital last Monday, where he is to have an operation performed for Brlght's disease. His mother is to remain with him during his stay in the hospital. T. A. McFadden thinks that someone attempted to poison his dog and her pup pies. Recently, the smoke house of Aunt Nancy Engle, at whose bouse Mr. McFadden is staying, was visited by a midnight prowler. The dog made so much fuss that he was frightened away. A short time after the incident Tom found the old dog and several ol the pons very sick from poson, but be succeeded in saving all, except one pun, which was dead wiien discovered. Rex Lewis and J. V. Harless have gone to the Santiam mines, where they expect to make Home locations. ' E. Dodge has his shingle mill In oper ation on the Ramsby's place. The registering of votera has closed here and the number has fallen far abort of what it was two years ago. That may be explains! though by the l,u:t that County Clerk Sleight has made an effort to have all register at Oregon City, there by saving the trouble of cutting out aud pasting the names in the poll bouks. Some voters in this vicinity hae failed to register, and will cause the judge con siderable trouble on election day. X. Y. Z. Card of Thanks.

"At times she was unable to move at all. while at all times walking was r infill. I presented her with a bottle of of Cham. berlain's rain Balm and after a few ao- lications she decided it was the most wonderful pain reliever she had ever tried, in fact, she is never without it now and is at all times able to walk, An oc casional application of Pain Balm kept away the pain that she was formerly troubled with."

Mrs. Flora Savage denires to express ner sincere thanks for the many acts of kindness shown her by the members of the Knights of Pythias Lodge and others during her recent bereavement by the death of her husband, H. W . Savage. Exposure To cold draughts of air, to keen and cutting winds, Budden changes of tem perature, scanty clothinir, undue expos ure of the throat and neck after public speaking aud singing, bring on coughs and colds. Ballard's Horehound Syrup is the best cure. Mrs. A. Barr, Houston, Texas, writes, Jan. 31,1902: ."One bottle of Ballard's. Horehound Syrup cured me of a very bad cough. It is vi- ry pleasan t to take.' 25c, 50c, $1. Sold by Charman &, Co. A Successful Recital. The Song Recital given by Misslmcuen Harding Wednesday evening, was a grand success, flattering to the young and talented contralto and to the city whose best citi zens showed their appreciation of what nature and art have done for one of their native daughters. Many music-loving friends came from Portland ana auaea ap preciation by their presence, beautiful flo ral tributes, and applause. Miss Harding's program was so varied In scope that the quality of. her voice was shown to good advantage, and reflected credit on the thee'ry and technique of her teachers, Mrs. Walter Reed, of Portland, and F. X. Arens, of New York. Miss Harding's voice was well adapted for the rendition of Mr. Arens' composition, "At my Grave", which was beautiful in har mony and expression. "Non Posso Dispe rar". though composed in the loth century was receivedas its enduring merit deserves with applause. Every number was a gem, brightened by the skillful touch ,of the naturally gifted Miss Draper, the accompanist. Miss Dra per also gave several musical numbers which showed her ability in technique, memory and expression. The affair wasal'ogether a fitting tribute to the merit of .Vu-s Harding's work In voice culture, and a testimonial of the es teem in which she is held by her lovely sisters, lhe King's Daughters, who weio ihe patronesses ol the happy altalr. The public will look forward to many hours of future enjoyment in song rendered by Miss Harding. Her simple, gracious air, soft, pleasing tones and the impressive rendition of all her numbers on the program gave one a sense of rest and and satisfaction not always evidenced in a concert given by a soloist.

An entirely novel scheme of whiskey peddling has just been discovered In tho Chickasaw Nation. The culprits, who are peddlers, traveled In an old wagon drawn by a poor span of Indian ponies and were ostensibly buying eggs and poultry, but on the sly they would sell small bot lesof whiskey to the farmers at ft wrnlnt. The officers discovered that both axles of the wagon were of iron and very large. Upon further Investigation it was discover ed that these axles were hollow and would hold about four gallons each, lhe ped dlers would remove a bolt and insert a small pump and draw the whi.-.kcy out of these axles.
