BURMEISTER & ANDRESEN The Oregon City Jewelers Suspension Bridge Corner That in addressing' Mrs. Pinkham you are confiding your private ills to a woman a woman whose experience with wo man's diseases covers a great many years. You can talk freely to a woman when it is revolting' to relate your private troubles to a man besides a man does not under stand simply because he is a man. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing1 full well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a n atural modesty impels them to shrink from exposing them selves to the questions and probably examinations of even their family physician. It is unnecessary. Without money or price you can consult a woman -whose knowledge from actual experience is great. Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation: Women suffering from any form of female weak ness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women only. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman: thus has been established the eternal confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Out of the vast volume of experience which she nas to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that will help your case. She asks noth-ine-in return except vour eood-will.andher advice has relieved thousands. Surelv anv St woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance. ; Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass. Following we publish two let ters from m woman who accep ted, this invitation. Note the result. First letter. Want Streets Vacated After hearing the testimony for and against the vacation of certain streets and lots in Eagle Creek, the county court deferred a decision on the question until the premises can be inspected. A peti tion was filed with the court by E. N. Foster and wife asking for the vacation of the streets and a remonstrance was presented by E. E. Elliott, who claims that he invested in property and made improvements thereon on the representa tion that the property was to be disposed of as a townsite. On the other band, the Fosters claim that Elliott acquired title to two lots out of a total of eigh teen acres, from Jas. M. Lyons, acting agent for them, under an agreement that was subsequently set aside by the courts. They claim that there is no demand for the property which they ask to be re stored to acreage. Overtake Two Poachers While patroling the lower Willamette near Oswego last Thursday night. Dep uty Fish Wardens Smith and Rail un expectedly came' upon two Italians in an other boat whom they overtook after an exciting chase. There was found in the overtaken oat a drift net and. the state's epresentatives had every reason to be lieve that the men had been illegally fishing and had thrown their catch over board before being caught. Because of the inability to convict for illegal fishing that has been experienced in the courts at Oregon City, the men were not arrested but the net was taken. During the same night these deputies also siezed three large mesh nets and the fact that neither contained any fish is considered evi dence that large' salmon are scarce in the river this year. Because of the ex treme vigilance of these deputy fish wardens there has been but little illegal fishing in this vicinity this year as com pared with previous years. Dear Mrs. Pinkham: ' For eight years I have suffered something terrible every month with my periods. Vhe pains are excruciating and I can hardly stand them.

I hope you can relieve me. "-Mrs. Mary Dimmick, 59th and E. Capitol Sts., Benning P.O., Washington,D.C. Second letter. Dear Mrs. Pinkham: " After following carefully your advice, and taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, I am very anxious to send you my testimonial, that others may know their Tain nd what yon have done tor mm. " As you know, I wrote you that my doctor aid I must have an operation or I could not live. I then wrote you, telling you my ail ments. I followed your advice and am entirely-well. 'I can walk miles without an ache or a pain, and I owe my life to you and to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I wish every suffering woman would read this testimonial and realize the value of writ ing to you and your remedy." Mrs. Mary Dimmick, 59th and E. Capitol Streets, Ben ning P. O., Washington, D. C. When a medicine has been successful in restoring' to health so many women whose testimony is bo unquestionable, yon cannot well say, without trying1 it, " I do not believe it will help me.'

Drop in most any time- now and you are likely to see one of the clerks wrap ping up a Bottle ofLaxakola, and Ore gon City ladies have learni-1 of the remarkable effect of Laxakola upon the bile pigments and the beneficial ac tion it has upoij the skin and complex ion is really surprising. Huntley Bros. Co. will tell you the demand for it is increasing rapidly; not so much on ac count of the advertising, but because this or that lady drops in to the store with the statement that she been recom mended to try it.

Another Chicken Item. W. G. Emery gives figures on chicken culture that are of interest. He has 21 Plymouth Rock pullets that during March laid 475 eggs. On two different days they laid 19 eggs. One day the laid 18 eggs after having laid 19 the day before. On two different days they laid 13 eggs, and this is the smallest number laid in any one day. This is certainly great for the number of hens. Mr. Emery is very careful of the man ner in which he feeds his chickens; in the morning he feeds a mash composed of equal .parts of shorts and cracked corn, to which is added a handful of meat meal, mixed with warm water or milk. . At noon he feeds one quart of wheat, scattered in a litter in a scratch- ' ing shed, and in addition he feeds fresh ground bone twice a week, all they can eat. Corvallis Gazette. Removal. C. A.
