WILL ABOLISH P0ST0FFICE
Borlnj Will Take the Place of Orient
For Rural Delivery.
Orient postofflce will probably be
discontinued within the next six
minths. It is one of the old-time
postoffices ot Eastern Multnomah
county, and .has a rural route,
but constant change in condi
tions will soon cause the removal
of the postofflce. An inspeotor of the
local postofflce department was there
last week, looking Into the matter,
and made up his mind to recommend
its discontinuance, and the transfer of
the ru'al route to Boring, an office on
the O. W. P. railway line. The sav
ing to the department will come
through the cutting off of the Orient
postmaster's percentage of cancellation
ana the reduction in cost of the star
route to Sandy. The star route now
starts from Orient, but Boring is six
miles nearer to Saudy, and the con
front, nrice will be reduced in propor
tion. As for the patrons of the Orient
rural route, they can nearly all be
served from Boring. The remainder
can all be served by carrier No. 2 from
Gresham. The carrier's time from
Boring will also be shortened because
nf the earlier arrival of the mails by
the railway, and he will be able to
leave the office over an hour earlier
than at present.

mark of Scott's Emulsion,
and is the synonym for
strength and purity. It is sold
in almost all the civilized coun
tries of the globe.
.If the cod fish became extinct
it would be a world-wide calam
ity, because the oil that cornea
from its. liver surpasses all other
fats in nourishing and life-giving
properties. Thirty , years ago
the proprietors of Scott's Emul
sion found a way of preparing
cod liver oil so that everyone can
take it and get the full value of
the oil without the objectionable
taste. Scott's Emulsion is the
best thing in the world for weak,
backward children, thin, delicate
people, and all conditions of
wasting and lost strength.
