BEAUTY MORE THAN SKIN DEEP.
A Good Complexion Must Corns From
Within.
It Is the natural desire of every ambi
tions woman to have a clear skin and a
beautiful complexion. Outward applica
tions of powders can never do more than
partially cover up a poor complexion and
la apt to ruin the texture of the skin if
used persistently. Constipation is respon
sible for not only the greater part of
headaches, biliousness, bad breath, tor
pid liver, backache and lack of energy,
but for sallow, muddy complexion as well.
The right way to remove pimples, and
' blotches and clear up a muddy, cloudy
complexion is to go right to the root of
the trouble. The one remedy that will
cure constipation, improve the complex
ion, brighten the eyes, quicken the circu
lation, cure sick headache and insure a
clear, velvety skin is Laxikola Tonic Tab
lets. So that there may be no chance for
disappointment, and to protect both you
and the druggist, we have agreed to re
fund the full retail price of 25 cents to
Huntley Bros Co. by issuing a Guarantee
Contract authorising them to pay back
your money if the remedy does not ben
efit you as claimed.
Cured Brlght's Disease.
Geo. A. Sherman, Lisbon Red Mills,
Lawrence Co., N. T., writes: "I had kid
ney disease for many years and had been
treated by physicians for twelve years;
had taken a well known kidney medicine
and other remedies that were recom
mended but got no relief until I began
using Foley's Kidney Cure. The first
half bottle relieved me and four bottles
have cured me of this terrible disease.
Before I began taking Foley's Kidney
Cure I had to make water about every
fifteen minutes day and night, and passed
a brick-dust substance, and sometimes
a slimy substance. I believe I would have
died if I had not taken Foley's Kidney
Cure." Huntley Bros. Co.

To the Lewis & Clark Centennial.
Day light that dawned upon the smiling
plain.
Ever revealed the weary way;
Flowers that blossomed where their path
had lain.
Withered and seared, the yesterday.
Streams that their flood and tide had
pushed along,
The deep voiced rivulet;
Tomorrow's sun heard louder yet the
song,
Where river, plain and vallty met.
Onward, as wings the eagle on his fight.
His eyes hard set upon hiB prey;
Onward! nor paused from daylight's
dawn till night,
Herpes of old that blazed the way.
Find, find, he cried, beyond the setting
sun,
The land where rolls the Oregon;
The sun his course upon his daily run
Awaits a friend to smile upon.
High up the cralg, kissed by eternal
snows.
Now toiling o'er the plain below;
Tomorrow plant their feet, only God
knows;
Strange streams across their pathway
flow.
Wealth of a continent that then was
theirs.
Assemble now to honor fame;
The harvest of a mighty hundred years,
Is gathered here and in their name.
IM Them tit t'lrcna Is Very So
rlonn Affair.
To circus people the circus Is a very
nerious thing. When a bareback rider
tUps to the ground after a somersault
or a loftv tumbler misses the shoulder
It is his business to land on the audi
ence is nil sympathy, ns If feeling It
self how It Is to full before so many
people. Very little the performer cares
for all the vast multitude. Ills mind
Is ou the superintendent, his pirtlcular
superintendent, who Is watching him
at the side of the arena, and who, when
he goes off, Is sure to ask very pointed
ly how his eye happened to be Inac
curate or his muscles lntirm. There la
no place lu the circus for performers
who fall.
Even the clowns look a little bit seri
ous behind the scenes. But perhaps
that is only because the black lines
they palut ou their whitened visages
are always so glum and solemn. And
what a wilderness of fun making peo
ple there are In the I. .er day circus
the Bumpkin, the Loon, the Harlequin,
tho Urlmacer, the Merry Andrew, the
Austrian Looby, the'.uny, the Pierrot,
the Punch, the Motley Fool and Anally
the German Broad Face, whose name
Is Paddy Burke! Due of the clowns
was sitting on his trunk In the dress
lug room licking a stick of black palut
and rubbing It ou his checks so as to
make a most funereal expression. Tlie
small boy asked him what kind of a
clown he was. He said that he was
Just "Funny Frtskey," and he got Ids
visiting card out of his trunk. It read.
"DL Frlskey, Clown and Comedian,"
and It had a heavy gold rim, which
made It very Imposing. In the four
corners It said Europe and Asia and
Africa and America, which showed
that II. Frlskey's fame had reached
the four corners of the card. Until you
saw his merry capers In the ring you
never could believe that a man with
such a serlovte face and such an Im
posing visiting card could be either
funny or frisky. Metropolitan Maga

GENERAL SUMMARY
The past week has been favorable fur
normal growth, notwithstanding It v
ringed cooler than usual. Haying l o
general and although considerable hay
bus been out and lying In th" fields when
the rains of the early part of the week
occurred, no great unmuire ensued, and
the hay crop promises to be unusually
heavy and of excellent quality. I'""
wheat continues to till nicely and lis
harvest will begin an about ten days r
two weeks. Fungus diseases and Insect
pests are mort troublesome than usual
lit this season of the year. Hprlng wheat
In portions of the Wlliilmette Valley Is
badly Infested with aphis, hut otherwise
its condition I promising. Oats are af
fected by a red rust fungus, which l
causing much apprehension. Barley Is
ripening nicely. Corn, gardens, potatoes,
field onions and sugar beets continue do
ing well. Many lice are reported In hop
yetds, especially those situated near Hie
river bottoms, and preparations for ex
tensive spraying have been made, which
will be put In operation If the present
warm weather does not cause their ill
appearance. Perries are plentiful, and
other fruit has made satisfactory advancement.

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten Dol
lars Earned.
The average man dots not save to ex
ceed ten per cent of his earnings. He
must spend nine dollars in living expens
es for every dollar saved. That being
the case he cannot be too careful about
unnecessary expenses Very often a few
cents properly Invested, like buying seeds
for his garden, will save several dollars
outlay later on. It Is the same in buying
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
hoea Remedy. It costs but a few cents,
and a bottle of it in the house aften
saves a doctor's bill of several dollars.
