MR. and MRS. WILBERT THOMPSON,
801 Main St., Peoria, III.
MULL'S GRAPE TONIC CURED HIM.
Wilbert Thompson never knew a well day until last June he had been constipated all his life many
doctors treated him, but all failed to even help him his health failed rapidly and on January 21,
1903, Mrs. Thompson asked as to suggest a treatment for her husband We thought the case
too serious and recommended that a specialist be consulted but he also failed to help the
patient NOW HE IS WELL.
Mull's Grape Tonic Cured Him
Mrs. Thompson first wrote us as follows: "My husband, aged 23, suffers from sharp pains In his stomach and
sometimes thinks it is his heart. Let me know by return mail what causes the pain, if you can. Mr. Thompson
has been treated bv several doctors, but thev have given him ud."
Ve promptly advised that a first-class specialist be oonsuited. We quote: "We want to sell Mull's Crape
Tonic, because we know it will cure constipation, but 50c. a bottle Is no object to us when a human life Is at stake,
and if your husband's case is as serious as you state, we suggest you consult a reliable specialist, not the advertising
kind, promptly." At the same time, knowing that Mull's Grape Tonic could do no harm, we advised its use until a
physician could be consulted. January 25 Mrs. Thompson wrote that a physician had been consulted. He diag
nosed the case as being chronic constipation and dyspepsia. His treatment was followed faithfully, but there was
no perceptible improvement In Mr. Thompson's health. Then he began taking Mull's Grape Tonic and on Sept.
3, 1903, we received the following letter from Mrs. Thompson:
"You will remember thct I wrote to you last Januarv In regard to my husband's health. It
Is four months since he quit taking Mull's Grape Tonio for constipation, which he suffered from
since birth. He took Just 24 bottles of it and is perfectly cured. He is much stronger and has
gained considerably in flesh. I cannot thank you enough for Mull's Grape Tonio. 'It is worth Its
weight in gold.' Just $1 2 cured him and he has spent hundreds of dollars with doctors who did
him no good. Now I want to state my case to you and expect your early reply. I also have consti
pation, have had for three years. Kindly let me know as I am sure it will oure me If you say It will,
as it did all you claimed it would in my husband's case. I await an early reply."
Very respectfully yours, MRS. W. H. THOMPSON, 801 Main St., Peoria, III.

Why Suffer From Rheumatism?
Why suffer from rheumatism when one
application of Chamberlain's Pain Balm
will relieve the pain? The quick relief
which this liniment affords makes rest
and sleep possible, and that alone is
worth many times Its cost. Many who
have used It hoping only for a short re
lief from suffering have been happily sur
prised to find that after awhile the relief
became permanent. Mrs. V. H. Leggett
of Yum Yum, Tennessee. TJ. S. A., writes
"I am a great sufferer from rheumatism,
all over from head to foot, and Chamber
lain's Pain Balm is the only thing that
will relieve the pain." For sale by Geo. A.

CAN BY.
Canby has the second agent at the de
pot, since Mr. Brown left for a few weeks
in , the East about a fortnight ago. . The
first supply was unceremoniously relieved
Monday morning', for a mistake on Sun
day, that might have been very disas
trous. He had. orders for the South bound
train on Sunday morning to pass the sec
ond section of the excursion train at Bar
low. He forgot to deliver them and the
train ran on to Aurora, which, fortunate
ly; was reached in time for the two trains
to pass. It makes one shudder to think
of what might have occurred.
Jim Gibson came to town last Tues
day accompanied by two small children.
and as usual proceeded to fill up on Canby
bug juice. Shortly after noon he started
home and the team ran away on the hill
approaching Goode's bridge across the
Molalla where the occupants were thrown
out and all more or less injured. The
children, innocent suffers by their fath
er's vice, were taken to the Meek's place,
while Gibson was taken to Canby. He
was badly cut about the head, bleeding
profusely. He will probably .recover.
The children, though badly cut and
bruised, are not thought to be in a seri
ous condition. Some of the neighbors
have expressed regret that Gibson's
wounds were not as serious as at first
thought, for it Is said, he is very cruel to
his family, having beaten his wife and
6hildren on various occasions, especially
when drunk. Thus greedy men are giv
en license to sell the poison to such ir
responsibles, that they may fatten off
the sufferings of the innocent.
MT. PLEASANT.
Mr. George Miller, of Albany, is camp

cured some of Mr. Miller's stock.
Mr. J. Partlow piloted a company of
eight amateur fishermen to the mouth of
Beaver Creek for bass fishing on last
Monday. The bass is an aristocratic fish
and resented the rustic garb in which
they sought to woo him, and did not
bite. It requires a boiled shirt, gold stud
and patent leather shoes to soften his
pride. , Mr. Partlow's party got one trout.
Fix up boys and try again.

, The road grader, drawn by an eighteen

grader on country roads is soon to be a
thing of the past.

OPPOSE BRIDGE AT BARTON.
Remonstrances Being Circulated Against
Proposed Improvement.
Petitions remonstrating against the
proposed construction of a bridge across
the Clackamas river at Barton, are being
circulated here. The bridge will cost
about $15,000 and of that amount the
county court has agreed to assume 70
per cent of the cost.
The remonstrators allege that the build
ing of the bridge is an unnecessary ex
pense, contending that its real purpose
will be the booming of private property
Interests It is also alleged by those
signing .the remonstrance that . there are
already an adequate number of bridges
across the Clackamas river for the ac
commodation of the travel of the county.
The proposed new structure would have
the effect of diverting from Oregon City
the trade of the. Logan section, one of
the richest and most productive agri
cultural districts In the county.
