BEAUTIFUL TEETH.
Wise Brothers are Adding Another Charm
to Woman.
It is gotting to be distinctly the fash
ionable thing to have a fine eet of
teeth.
This is one of the mcst effective rea.
eons why modern dentistry has made
such a big step in advance.
The mother who now-a-days refuses
to have her daughter's teeth attended
to is regarded as having little love for
her child. No longer ii there fear of
pain, for tooth-filling, and tooth
pulling, is attended by no pain what
ever. The most comfortable and lux
urious apartments are provided by the
leading dentists, and the prices are ex
ceedingly low.
Wise Brothers, the famous dental
firm in the Failing Building, Portland,
Ore., have done more than anyone elee
in the Northwest to bring about this
condition of affairs. It is as correct a
thing for ladies and gentlemen to be
as careful to have a nice, white set of
presentable teeth, as It is for them to
keep their hands clean. Physicians
and all cp-to-date people ' welcome
these facts, for they indicate that hu
manity is making a long stride ahead.
Instead of caring for the teeth being a
bugbear, it is greatly a matter of com
fort and pleasure. After the teeth are
put in perfect order once it is a slight
duty easily watched to keep them so.
Go to the dentist regularly at least
once in six months and you are all right.
And, for the sake of yourself and
your friends, don't Neglect your teeth
a day longer. The next time you visit
Portland step in at Wise Brothers and
see for yourcelf how simple and inex
pensive it is to have a good, beautiful
set of teeth again.

Rheumatism must be

as S. S. 8. It attacks the disease in
the blood, neutralises the acids, and
removes all irritating or poisonous
substances from the system.-

the thin acid blood, and, as it circu
lates through the body, the corroding,
gnawing poisons and acid deposits
are dislodged and washed out of the
muscles and joints, and the sufferer
Is happily relieved from the discom
forts and misery of Rheumatism. ' -
External remedies are all right so far as they go, but they don t go fat
enough, and you can't depend upon them to do the work of a blood purifier,

But a good liriiment or plaster will often give,
temporary relief because it produces counter
irritation or reduces the inflammation and sore
ness. But no sort of external treatment can have
any effect whatever upon the disease itself, for
Rheumatism It not a tkln crfeeaso.but
is due to an over acid condition of the blood, and
tie deposit of irritating matter or Uric Acid
salts or sediment in the muscles and joints, and
no amount of rubbing or blistering can dislodge
these gritty particles or change the acid blood.
Rheumatism often becomes chronic, and the mus

the nervous system almost wrecked, because so
much time is lost in trying to cure a blood disease
with outside applications or doctoring the skis.

SENATOR HOPKINS' "RED HEAD."
Bow It Gere Him Hie Flret Start ia
Congressional Legislation.
When ex-Congressman Albert J.
Hopkins of Illinois took his oath In
Washington as United States Senator
as the successor of
William E. Mason,
he saw realised
the ambition of
many years. In
his early years,
when ouly a lad of
7 or 8, he visited a
court room with
hls father, who had
,2 been summoned as
fa juror, and he
- then nud there Je-
lermineu to be a
lawyer. Later, In
A. J. HOPKINS.
his young manhood, he conceived the
ambition of becoming a United States
Seuntor. The first ambition was long
ago realized aud for many years Mr.
Hopkins has been a lender at the bar
of Kane Couuty. And now the second
ambition has been realized.
Senator Hopkins has been a member
of Congress since 1S85 and 1ms served
ou many of Its important committees.
He helped frame the IMngley tariff
bill and has taken an active part In
financial and revenue mensures.
It was his "red head" that first gave
hliiJ his start as a' congressional law
maker. When he first entered Con
gress he met the fate of all "young
sters" iu not being able to catch the
Speaker's eye, and thus the stnek of
bills for which he wished to gain con
sideration by the House remained mi
shitted upon the calendar, For every
move lu forwarding any one of them
the recognition of the chair was neces
sary, but all efforts to interest the
Speaker were as useless as It would
be to get a nod of recognition or as
sent from a snow man made by school
boys.
In his plight he was almost In de
spair, as his chauce for a renomlnn
tlon to Congress was then lu the bnl
anee. It was t this time that the
brilliant "Sunset" Cox became tempo
rary Speaker and Mr. Hopkins resolved
to "cultivate" him. Cox was an Inim
itable story teller and raconteur; Hop
kins was a good listener. When Speak
er Cox was telling one of his stories
Hopkins would take a prominent place
in front of the Speaker's desk. No
body laughed more heartily nt the
"Sunset", stories aud Jests. His "red
head" had "caught" the unofficial eye
of the Speaker and nt last he had
hopes of catching the "official" eye,
One day when Mr. Cox was in a
particularly Jovial mood the young
member from Kane Couuty Introduced
his bill for the cession of the Fox riv
er islands to the town of Aurora and
moed for Its passage "by unanimous
consent, under suspension of the
rules."
"Why, bless your fine red head,"
exclaimed Acting Speaker Cox, "I
would not refuse to recognize you from
any quarter of the House. Every time
I see those auburn locks of yours I
have pleasant visions of a red-haired
girl I used to know in school.: For
her sake you, with that head, can al
ways have the recognition of this
chair. The gentleman from Illinois
has the floor."
Although a peal of laughter greeted
the recognition, Mr. Hopkins was not
sensitive and he held the floor. Five
minutes later his resolution had been
passed. The Fox river islands were
Aurora's proud possession and the
young Congressman had so strength'
ened himself with his home city that
the future support of the inhabitants
was always at his command.
Senntor Hopkins' home in Illinois Is
at Aurora. He has three sons and one
daughter. Miss Fannie, who, with her
mother, is prominent in the society

A Spring Tonic.
Almo6t everybody needs a tonic In
the spring. Something to brace the
nerves, invigorate the brain and cleanse
the blood. That .Peruna. will do this
is beyond all question. Everyone who
has tried it has had the same experi
ence as Mrs. D. XT'. Timberlnke, of
Lynchburg, Va., who. in a recent letter,
made use of the following words: "I
always take a dose of Peruna after bus
iness hours, as ,it is a great thine lor
the nerves. There is no better spring
tonic, and I have used about all of
them."
Catarrh In Spring.
The spring is the best time to treat
catarrh. Nature renews herself every
spring. The system ii rejuvenated by
rpring weather. This renders medi
cines more effective. A short course of
Peruna, assisted by the balmy air of
spring, will cure old, stubborn cases of
catarrh that have resisted treatment
for years. Everybody should have av
copy of Dr. Harttnan's latest book on
catarrn. address The Peruna Medi
