The doc tor insisted on an operation as the only way to get well. I, however, strongly objected to an operation. My husband felt disheartened as well as I, for borne with a sick woman is a disconsolate place at best. A friendly druggist advised him to get a bottle of Wine of Cardui for me to try, and he did so. I began to improve in a few days and my recovery was very rapid. With in eighteen weeks I was another being. Mrs. Stowe's letter shows every woman how a home is saddened by female weaknes and how completely Wine of Cardui cures that sick ness and brings health and happi ness again. Do not go on suffer ing.

No sooner had we rounded the cnpc than the wind dropped ami we neuriy came to a (standstill; Our "kuuiudl" I. e., captain and stcersiunn did the best be could do for us, but In vain. We were doomed to drift about some hours without much progress. lie would whistle softly and enticingly or would change his tone and with pouted lips whistle angrily and viciously for Kie wind that would not come to help us on. I have often wondered what can have been the origin of whistling for the wind. That the custom Is of undoubted practical'utility is the firm belief of many races of seafarers, from the English sea captain to the bumble Malay kamudi. I was on one occasion very roughly spoke a to by a captain In the Irish channel for casually whistling In a gale of .wind. He thought It a piece of gross carelessness on my part which might lead to serious conse quences. Here in Celebes, too, I was Warned to be careful not to laugh when the kamudi screwed his face up into an intensely ludicrous expression of feigned passion and whistled angrily for the wind to come, for the Malay seaman's belief la the efficacy of this mode of raising the wind is a serious one and will not brook being made an object of derision. Soon after midnight a favorable breeze sprang up, and by Bunrise we were passing the little is lands of Ganga and Tindela. Sidney J. Hickson In "A Naturalist In North Celebes." Shouted loud aa Li. There was much rudeness in LI Hung Chang's manner, but if be waa an swered back in his own coin he melted Into graciousness. Once a junior mem ber of a British consulate was sent to Interview the viceroy on some matter. In the vast audience hall he found no one to receive him, so he took a chuir near, the door. Eventually LI and his following appeared at, the other end of the hall on some lofty seats, and the viceroy started shouting to him in the difficult Anhui accent To the utter dumf bunding of every one present, 'con trary to all principles of Chinese eti quette, tke young Englishman shouted back his answer in the same loud, rough voice as far as he could imitate it in which LI had spoken to him. Ev- ery one in the suit was stricken with horror. Even Li started and spoke low' er. Gradually the conversation as sumed a convenient tone, and after a bit Li. with a humorous smile, beck oned the young man to come up higher and sit down beside him. They soon became excellent friends. London Men and Women. SHAVER'S "BLUFF" CALLED. GRAIN AND FLOUR. Wheat, Walla Walla Wheat, Valley...

It Is the result of an instinctive effort to get as far away as possible from every thing like pretentiousness. It la the antipodes of bathos. It Is the lan guage of the whole people, because It Is expressive of the national sense of humor that Is neyer so keen as when It contemplates with a joy likewise unutterable the spectacle presented by a fake exposed. It Is blunt, it Is crude, it is brutal sometimes, but It is always sinocre. It directs against the citadels of evil the mighty enginery of laugh ter. It does for our nascent abuses what the mordant satire of Martial and Juvenal failed to do for decadent Rome.

This banker was known for his haughty, forbidding manners; con sequently Dr. Nubn, the professor of anatomy, was much surprised one day when the banker came and sat with him in a railway car and, after a pleas ant chat, asked him all sorts of ques tions, especially, about the anatomy of the heart. The next day he even called by permission In the medical depart ment and watched the professor dis secting one of those organs.

Editor Courier: Permit me to occu py space in your valuable paper to reply to a "bluff" of Sheriff Shaver in the last issue qf the Enterprise in which he "of fers to pay to any 'reputable', 'represen tative' Democrat the sum of $100, who will prove by the records of Clackamas county, that the Sheriff's office under his administration, from ( July 1,1902, until July 1, 1903, hbs cost the taxpay ers within $350 of what it cost from July 1, 1901, to July 1, 1902, under Ex-Sheriff Cooke." To beuin with Mr. Shaver, let me say that you are not willing to accept the figures of your own County Clerk as evi dence in the matter, and are not willing , to stand by your own repoits, after your officers Lave certified to them as being correct, and have;published in the coun ty paper, paying the taxpayers money therefor. It would, Indeed, be difficult to produce any evidence which would . convince vou that your administration of the Sheriff's office has been more ex pensive thanjthat of Mr. Cooke. In your statement of the expenses of your office you see fit to estimate from July 1, 1902, to July 1, 1903, possibly ',. for the reason that, we have no Official . report at the present time covering that ; period of your office, although such re- ports have been made by all your pre decessors in the Clerk's office; and since you are 10 anxious to reckon from these dates, it woulH seem to a reasons- . ble.person that we should have some of ficial figures covering theee dates you have prepared, especially for cam paign purposes, a ."statement?" and you ask the voters to believe this "state ment", rather than your own official re ports, which seems very .unreasonable in you, I have not had the opportunity of ex aminiig the statement you have had "prepared," but have no doubt it makes the showing whlch you claim for it, as you had it "specially" prepared for this campaign ; but I do say, it does not agree with your official reports, which reports WERE NOT MADR FOR CAMPAIGN THUNDER, but were made as a part of your official duties, and which ought to be correct. I lake from the official reports the following figures : Costs of Sheriff and Clerk's office from April 1, 1901, to April r, 1902, $6982.78; to April 1, 1902, till April 1, 1903, $7120.87; to April 1, 1903 to April 1, 1904, $8103.10. Will you dar deny these figures? You claim, and so does the Clerk, to be saving money, and yet your own reports show that these offices, as Bhown above. have cost more than $1200 more from April 1, 1903, to April 1, 1904. all under the present administration,they did from April 1, 1901, to April 1, 1902, under Cooke and Cooper's administration. Furthermore, during the last year of Cooke and Cooper, aa shown above,the7 conducted a sale of old taxes, known as 'junk" taxes, which required great deal of labor and clerical work in both offices; the same being taxes for the years 92, 93, 94 and 90, and yetlyou and the present clerk are over f 1200 more expensive than they were. I submit that from April to April, next year, is no greater duration of time that from July to July, and it ought to be practically the same amount of money to run these offices during the one time as the other. I further submit : The rea son that you are not willing to figure from April to April, next, ia because we have official figures covering that period. while for the dates you use we have not which gives you a chance to make an "estimate" of your, own liking, and which' contradicts the certified report of the County Clerk. From a careful perusal of the figures and facta herein set forth, I think any "reputable, representative" Democrat, or Republican, would lay that I am en titled to. your $10o; TROVIDED, of course, you think me a "reputable, representative" Democrat, of which fact you would have been a competent judge while In the party?
