There Will be Less Sleeplessness When
Oregon City People Learn This.
Can't rest at night with a bad back;
A lame, a weak or an aching one.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for bqd backs.
They cute every form of kidney ills,
From common backache to diabetes.
' Mrs. M. Custer, residing at 535 W.
Second St., Albany. Oregon, says: "As
a result of cold sometime last Fall my
back became so lame that I could hardly
get about at all. In the morning I felt
sore and lame and my night's rest was
broken by too frequent action of the
kidneys. A box of Doans' Kidney Pills
was procured for me. I noticed their
good effects after taking a few doses and
in a short time I was cured. When I
find a remedy that does all that is claim
ed for it I am only too pleased to make
the fact known to others. . I consider
Doan's Kidney Pills the best kidney rem
edy I ever used."
Plenty more proof like this from Oregon
City people. Call at Dr. C. G. Huntley's
drug store and ask what his customers
report.

JOHN YOUNGER,

FORTY YEARS EXPERIENCE IN
Great Britain and America. '
Last Sunday Frank Selby, the 13 year
old son of E. C. Selby, found a can part
full of powder in the barn, and thought
he would take it down on the side of a
gulch near the home set a match to ft.
The younger children started to follow
him, but he had presence of mind enough
to make them go back to the house.
Frank touched a match to the powder
and the result was a fearful explosion,
burning his face in a terrible manner,
his eyes were very badly burned, but the
doctor (hinks he will not Jose the sight.
He managed to find his way to the house
and frightened the family by his appear
ance. A doctor was quickly summoned
and every thing done to relieve his suf
ferings. He is gaining some on his con
dition, but is quite nervous yet from the
shock. It was indeed a very narrow es
cape from having his head blown off.
Verny Jefferson and Harley Frost were
both trying to catch the same ball last
Friday evening, and ran against each
other, the Jefferson boy had a gash cut
in his face that required some stitches,
aijd the Frost boy is minus some of his
front teeth.
Mr. Murrow returned a few days ago
from a trip to Eastern Oregon where he
has interest in some land.
Miss Nora Currins and Mrs. Hall went
to Portland Tuesday.
Mrs. Gillette attended Grange at Park
place last Wednesday.
Mrs. Albright is taking treatment for
her eyes, which are in a very serious
condition.
Chas. Ely thinks he can make more
money fishing than at the carpenter's
trade. .
Mr. and Mrs. Pettitt are at home now
in their cozy new residence.
C. W. Fredricks thinks he will sell his
residence here and move down town
farthe so as to be nearer to his store.
: We are glad to see Elmer Dixon honor
ed with offers of positions in superin
tending the Clackamas County exhibits
at the fair, also In the Poultry Depart
ment. - He knows enough to fill both
places' creditably. . "" '-
The good people of this part of Ore
gon City were ashamed of the language
and conduct of the boys that played base
ball, and judging from . their conduct,
there is need of more than evangelistic
work in reforming some of them. If
the parents of those, boys could have
heard them it . would surely have made
them hang their heads in shame, ;
We are glad to see an effort being
made for civic improvement. . We have
advocated' it from the start and if every
resident would make a personal effort
to make their homes neat and tidy and
the streets and alleys cleaned up, there
would be little need of committees be
ing sent out to see the work being done.
Three months from now would see Ore
gon City in a far different appearance.
While the evangelists are working for
the salvation of souls let the homes be
made beautiful and it will add dollars
in value and contentment to the heart.
We are glad to see the cemetery being
cleaned up and put in nice and beautiful
shape. There will be many new graves
to place flowers on this coming Decora
tion . Day, and many homes will hold a
vacant chair.
n Mr. Burly a. blacksmith from St. Johns, Aims now.. Everyone is busy and each
has rented the Fredricks shop, and Is j thinks be has more to do than his neigh-
quite busy.
! bor, at least it seems that way to hear
Often The Kidneys Are
Weakened ly Over-Work.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
It' used to be considered that only
urinary and bladder troubles were to be
tracea to me jcianeys,
but now modern
science proves that
nearly all diseases
have their beginning
in the disorder of
these most important
organs.
The kidneys .filter
and purify the blood
that is their -work.
Therefore, when your kidneys are weak
or out of order, you can understand how
quickly your entire body is affected and
how every organ seems to fail to do its
duty. .
If you are sick or ' feel badly," begin
taking the great kidney, remedy, Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, because as soon
as your kidneys are well they will help
all the other organs to health. A trial
will convince anyone. .
If you are sick you can make no mis
take by first doctoring your kidneys.
The mild and the extraordinary effect of
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great
kidney remedy, is soon realized. It
stands the highest for its -wonderful cures
of the most distressing cases, and is sold
on its merits by all f?nLZ
druggists in fifty-cent artta
and one-dollar size
bottles. You maySSSi
have a sample bottle Home of Swamp-Root,
by mail free, also a pamphlet telling you
how to find out if you have kidney or
bladder trouble. Mention this paper
when writing to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing
hamton.N. Y. Don't make any mistake,
but remember the name, Swamp-Root,
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the ad
dress, Binghamton, N. Y., on every bottle.

Little Ineta Dixon has been compelled (
through nervous prostration to quit scnooi

nervous weakness. v
- Mr. J. Porter of Tacoma, Washington,
is visiting Mr. Jas. Kays, an old - com
rade by the army, and it is quite a re
union not having met since they mus
tered out of service years ago. It is
like the reuniting of brothers to see our
brave old comrades meet after long
years, and hear them talk just like boys
of the present time talk of their days of
pleasure and troubles.
' Accidents come with ' distressing fre
quency on the farm. Cuts, bruises, stings

to save you 0 per cent, over other dealers on either
Mixed Paint or "Lead and Oil. If you contem
plate painting, and of course yoti do, because yoti
want your house to look the best in the neigh
borhood, don't hesitate after getting other prices
to come to tis. We assure you the quality can't
be equaled in the city.
If you use Lead , use Pioneer or Atlantic brands,
they are the best. If you use Mixed Paint you
want NEW ERA, it can't be beat.
I
YOU SURELY
HA VIS
Something around the place that needs painting. If it's your hoiise
we would recommend New Era Mixed Paint at $1.65 . or Regal
Mixed Paint $1.50 per gallon. The first is guaranteed to wear five"
years and both the manufacturers and ourselves stand back of the
guarantee- This means that if any time during that period you are
not satisfied with the paint in every respect we will, without cost to
you, repaint your house at our expense. Couldn't be more fair could
it? Maby it's your barn, if so we can furnish you material at an ex
pense of 75c per gallon that will wear an age. Climax Carriage Paint
will make your old buggy or cart look like new, and the expense is
nominal. Two quarts, at 75c per quart, wil-cover an ordinary buggy.
One coat is all that is necessary. , If your floors look shabby when
you are cleaning house buy a can of Varno-Floor Stain or Lacqueret
and touch them up you will be surprised at the improvement; A
package of Calcimo ot a cost of 50c will put a neat, new finish on your
wall. Remember we carry everything in the Psint, Oil, Varnish and
Brush line and will be glad to furnish " you with ' afl v the advice and r. ;
information at our command for the asking. , .
Stafford is getting to be quite a lively
go-ahead place. A potato buyer drove
into Mr. Gage's back yard Friday to in
quire about potatoes, and as he got into
his boggy again the horse ran away,
throwing the man out, and kicking every
jump. Coming in contact with the big
gate at the entrance to the lane, he
freed himself . from : the buggy and away
he went with a piece of one thill whip
ping him about the legs. He was caught
near "Willamette' and returned to his
owner, and Mr. Gage fastened the, bug
gy behind a vehicle with ropes and haul
ed it down Monday.'. The rig belonged to
Mr. Kohler, the blacksmith at Oswego.
The driver claimed to be unhurt.
The bright days and the wind is dry
ing the surface of the ground badly.
One ought to go over the fields with a
roller or harrow.
Mr. Gage's nephew, who is a black
smith, from Michigan, has gone to Os
wego to help in the shop, and learn ways
and prices of the country.
Mrs. Powell has gone to the city to
have dental work done.
Sherwood is again trying to "butt in"
and get our mail delivered a day late
from that place.
For instance, to-day's paper would go
to Sherwood on the 4 p.m. train, and
be there all night, and start from there
at II a.m., getting here about 2:30 p.m.;
just 24 hours after the time we receive
it at present, by the star route from
Oregon City to Wilsonville. Who cares
to read .he state news.
The fields are looking beautiful now.
and apples are coming into bloom.
Adens. Ellesrsen. Poiivka and Wed
die have again been having their land
surveyed. .
The last report was that each was
five acres ahead, but of course that is
only a "they say so," but Stafford don't
quarrel much even over land.
' The $9.26 received from the school en
tertainment has been expended in books
and the scholars are happy over their
nest egg of a library. .
Susy Gross was out to her sister's Mrs.
Seedling's, at the time of the raising of
the barn. v

the year. . . '
On the 8th inst.' the Aims post, office
was moved into the store of J. A. Hick

Francisco, where he goes to learn the

" "People in general on this side of the
mountains read with horror the accounts
of . wholesale sheep shooting in 'the East
ern part of the state, and thank God
that they live in a civilized country, yet
the poisoning during the winter of be
tween four and five hundred head of
sheep, belonging to Hickman and Fritz,
of Aims, is unmistakable evidence of the
existence of a class of criminals, far more
dangerous to the peace . and prosperity
of any community than the sheep shoot
ers of Eastern Oregon.
Beware
of Ointments for Catarrh that
Contain Mercury.
as mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the whole
system when entering it through the
mucous surfaces. Such articles should
never be used except on prescription
from reputable physicions, as the damage
they will do is ten fold to the good you
can possibly derive from them. Hall's
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. o.
Cheeney & Co., Toledo, O., contains no
mercury, . and is taken internally, act

surfaces of the system. In buying Hall's
