The beautiful days we are having

Married, last Sunday at the Bap

of the friends of the contracting par

the evening to the home of the bride
a large delegation of neighbors and
friends were awaiting them and a
pleosant evening passed and a sump

well known and highly respected. Mr.

What Is Uric Acid ?
THE CAUSE OF BACKACHE,
RHEUMATISM, GRAVEL
AND SUDDEN DEATH.
Ever since the discovery of urio acid
in the blood by Sclieele, in 1775, and
the bad effect it had upon the body,
scientists and physicians have striven
to rid the tissues and the blood of
this poison. Because of its over
abundance in the system it causes
backache, pains here and there, rheu
matism, gout, gravel, neuralgia and
sciatica. It was Dr. Pierce who dis
covered a new agent, called "Anuric."
which will throw out and completely
eradicate this urio acid from the sys
tem. "Anuric" has proved to be 37
times more potent than lithxa, and
consequently you need no longer fear
muscular or articular rheumatism or
gout, or many other diseases which are
dependent on an accumulation of urio
acid within the body. Send to Dr.
Fierce, of the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., for a
pamphlet on " Anuric," or send 10 cents
for a trial package of "Anuric Tablets."
If you feel that tired, worn-out
feeling, backache, neuralgia, or if your
Bleep is disturbed by too frequent
urination, go to your best drug store
and ask for Dr. Pierce's Anuria Tablets.
They are put up in 60-oent packages.
Doctor Pierce's reputation is back of
this medicine and you know that his
"Golden Medical Discovery" for the
blood and his "Favorite Prescription"
for the ills of women have had a splen
did reputation for the past fifty years.
Doctor Tierce's Pelleta are unequaled
as a Liver Pill. One tiny Sutiar-coated
Juliet a Dose. Cure Sick Headache,
Bilious Headaohe, Dizziness, Constipa
tion, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks, and
all derangements of the Liver, Stoamou
and Bowels.
It looks as though we will have Mo
lalla avenue hard surfaced. Une

the most traveled public thorough
fares leading to Oregon City.

The sunshine and warm days arc
a great blessing to crops.
Some yearling lambs here sheared
as high as 12 pounds of wool apiece.
At 50 cents a pound, this is a good
revenue.
Classifiers for the railroad land are
working this way and the squatters
can soon make arrangements about
securing title to the land. It appears
that all squatters on the land contin
uously since December, 1913, will
have prior rights. The most of the
land, however, will be granted by lot
tery, so a squatter was told by a land
official in Portland lately. There are
a number here who have made some
improvements less than a year ago.
Notwithstanding this is one of the

told the public a year or so ago that
this land had no value for agriculture.
