Catarrh is entirely an unnecessary disease and should not be tolerated for a single day now that Hyomei is so generally known and has made so many cures in Oregon City and other towns. Until comparatively recent times catarrh was thought to be a blood disease and stomach dosing the only treatment. Modern science finally disproved this idea of the cause of catarrh, and found that it was a germ disease and, after many experiments, t tie remedy was decided to be Hyo mei. Hyomei medicates the air j'ou breathe; it kills the catarrhal germs; It heals the smarting and raw mem branes of the nassaces In the nose and throat ; it cures all catarrhal trou bles. As there is life and health in the air In the mountain-tops where the pine wrests give off their rragrant and healing balsams, so there Is life and health In breathing Hyomei. There is no need of suffering from catarrh if the simple and natural treatment of Hyomei is used. So sure Is this prescription to cure even the worst cases of catarrh, that Howell & Jones sell It under an ab solute guarantee to refund the money for it. rtiousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect it Prevalence of Kidney Iliteiue.

What To Do. There is comfort in the knowledge 80 often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills everv wish in curiner rheumatism. pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part or the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne cessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most dis tressing cases.

Seeley THE PEOPLES' GROCER OREGON CITY THE GENTRY SCHOOL OF RIDING Peculiar and Charming Feature With This Trained Animal Show. One of the most charming features of the Gentry Bros.' Famous Shows, United, which are to exhibit in Oregon City Saturday, October 12, is the chil dren's school of riding, which is held each day between the. matinee and evening performances in the main an imal tent. As nearly everyone knows, who has In any way followed the fortunes of the Gentry aggregation, the hundreds of ponies, dogs, elephants, camels and other animals with the favorite of all trained animal shows are kept on ex hibition in the first tent entered after passing the main entrance, and to many, the opportunity to get on friendly relations with the Gentry happy family Is regarded by many as the most pleasant part of a visit to the Gentry shows. Immediately after the matinee per formance all children In the audience are made the guests of the Gentry showB' management and the ponies and dogs, as well as the bigger ani mals, hold a sort of a reception to the younger generation which constitute the most important part of the Gentry clientele. Then follows a scene which certain ly can not be duplicated anywhere else in the tented world. In charge of experienced attendants, all the boys and girls who care to and nearly all the boys and girls do are put astride the ponies, or mounted high on the elephants and camels and thus en listed In the ranks of merry-makers, are ridden up and down and around about the tents to their hearts' con tent. If any of the riders get tired of the ponies, they can ride the elephants, or if they don't care for the elephants they can "go to sea" on the camels. At any rate they make a happy throng in the Gentry animal tent and there is only one scene to be compared with It. This Is, on a bright afternoon, when school is out and the children are free. For then they fill the main circus tent of the Gentrys from the ground to the topmost Beat and buzz and hum and laugh at the monkeys and applaud the ponies and cheer the dogs and have such a thoroughly en joyable, innocent time as to give am ple explanation of the appelatlon to which the Gentry shows are accus tomed: "The Santa Claus of Cir cuses." IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS. Don't Mistake the Cause of Youf Troubles. An Oregon City Citi zen Shows How to Cure Them. Many people never suspect their kidneys. If suffering from a lame, weak or aching back they think that it is only a muscular weakness; when urinary trouble sets in thhey think it will soon correct itself. And so It is with all the other symptoms of kidney disorders. That is just where the danger lies. You must cure these troubles or they may lead to diabetes or Brlght's disease. The best remedy to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. It cures all Ills which are caused by weaic or diseased kidneys. Oregon City people testify to permanent cures. James Downey, living at Willamette Falls, Oregon City, Ore., says: "I used Doan's Kidney Pills for back ache and kidney trouble. Their ben eficial effect were apparent in a short time. I may not have been troubled as badly as a good many people but I would advise any one in need of a kidney remedy to go to Huntley Bros.' orug store, procure Doan's Kidney Pills and they will not be disappoint ed in the satisfactory results which will follow their use."
