jewel bearing our name con

THIS STOMACH REMEDY
A woman customer said to us the
other day, "Say, you ought to tell
everyone in town about Rexall Dys
pepsia Tablets. I would myself if I
could. That set us to thinking, bo
many people have used them and
have so enthusiastically sounded
their praises both to us and their
friends, that we had an idea you all
knew about them. But, in the chance
that some of vou who suffer from in
digestion, heartburn, dyspepsia, or
some other stomach complaint, don t
know about them we are writing
this.
They contain Bismuth ad. Pepsin,
two of the greatest digestive aids
known to medical science. They
soothe and comfort the stomach, pro
mote the secretion of gastric juice,
help to quickly digest the food and
convert it into rich, red blood ,and
improve the action of the bowels:
We believe them to be the best reme
dy made for indigestion and dyspep
sia. We certainly wouldn't offer them
to you entirely at our risk unless we
felt sure they would do you a lot of
good. If Rexall Dyspepsia Tabletv.
do not relieve your indigestion, check
the heartburn, and make it possible
for you to eat what you like whenever
you like, come back and get your
money. ,

A SERMON ON BOOZE
PREACHED BY E. D. OLDS
Gives Facts and Figures to Prove the
Benefits of Prohibition
Editor Courier: " "
Allow me a little space to give
vent to what I think is the greatest
question that confronts the people of
the state of Oregon and the U. S.,
and I believe it will solve the unem
ployed aid financial question, that
is per capita.. This is the liquor ques
tion. We hear the men that drink and
sell whiskey, say that if the state
goes dry it will go wet again. Well,
perhaps it will, but I don't believe it.
uo to the history of the states that
have gone dry and see.
The state of Maine passed its pro
hibition law in 1854 and has never
repealed it since, and the Kansas leg
islature voted a joint resolution in
1879 to submit it to the people and
it passed at the general election in
1880, and it has never been repealed
yet.
North Dakota passed a prohibition
law in 188(3 and has never repealed it.
While it did not prohibit entirely for
a while until Governor Burk was el
ected, but then he enforced the law
it did prohibit. I know what I am
talking about for I was there at the
time. . .
Now come to brass tacks, votersn
which includes the women, and they
are going to help us. There is. but
one question about it, and that is
that it is either right, or it is wrong.
If it is right to peddle it we should
not put a high license on it. It would
be sold just the same as flour or su
gar, but if it is wrong, whih I be
lieve it is, there is no compromise on
it.
A wrong existed during the fif
ties the slavery question, and we
tried to compromise until that grand
old man, Abraham Lincoln, was elec
ted, and then he wiped it out. He
would not compromise with a wrong.
If it is wrong, it must be wrong to
have Oregon City dry and Milwaukie
wet, and that condition should not ex
ist in this grand1 old state of ours.
I say that it reaches all over our
nation, and it either should be all dry
or wet, and a man that is running for
office and asking the mothers, sisters
and brothers for their suffrage, and
who is not man enough to come out
openly and tell them where he stands
on this great issue, which I consider
an ivil, is not entitled to a vote on
either side, for the time is come
when the voters want a positive man.
lake Kansas for an example. Dur
ing her 30 years of prohibition, her
illiteracy, of the people has reduced
from 49 per cent to 2 per cent, with
luo counties of the State, 87 of them
having no insane: 54 have no feeble
minded; only 1 pauper to every 3,000
population, and there are 38 coun
try poor farms which have no in
mates. Last summer's statement
from 930 state banks showed about
$120,000,000 on deposit, which be'
longed to the people, and 213 Nation
al banks showed $90,000,000, making
a total of $Z10,uU0,000 or about $123
for every man, woman and child in
the State. Pretty good showing is it
not?
Listen just a moment you watch
and see if I am not right. You may
take a man that drinks, to excess and
he hurts every business. He will be
in the gutter with ragged shoes, rag
ged clothes, and ragged hat. He has
hurt the shoe man, the clothier's, and
the hat man, and broken his mother s,
sister's and wife's hearts and nine
out of ten of them, when they get so
ber, will cuss the American flag and
everybody under it until the Goddess
of Liberty will shed tears.
Why do men drink whiskey ; Is it
because they like it. I say no it is '
simply the effect and the sociability
nothing else. Take the money mak
ing value out of it and there would
be none of it sold.
Another thousrht how Ion? do vou
suppose that the men would tand to
have the drinking habit turned
around; let the women do the drink
ing and the men stand on the street'
corner and wait for the wife to come
out of the saloon and then perhaps
come out a slobbering all over their
chins and staggering around like
hogs and then get on the street car
and curse and swear? They have just
as much right to do it as we have
and don't you forget it.
Now 1 know that some of you will
say that Ed Olds used to drink, but
1 don t care what you say about it,
I know that I did, and it was a great
lesson to me. I have been to the mill
and ground the grist and you can't
tell me anything about it and this
article is just how I feel and I am
with the people to the last to put an
1 :i
enu 10 mis evil.
