In Memory of Mrs John Diy.
iHigh place to the soul of the dead,
From the die m of the worid the
has gone,
Oa the star in her glory to tread,
To be bright in the blaze of the
throne.
In youth she wes lovely; and Time,
When be rose with the cypress
he twined,
Xeft the heart ail the warmth of its
prime,
Left her eye all the light of her
mind.
The summons came forth and she
died!
Yet her parting was gentle, for
those
Whom she loved mingled tears at
her side,
Mer death was the mourner's
cepose.
Our weakness rnay weep o'er her
bier, ' t
But her spirit has gone on tie
wing
To triumph for agony here,
To rejoice in the joy of its King,
t ' A Friend.

and roots.
Nearly forty years afro, Dr. It.V. Pierce,
now consulting physician to the Invalids
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y.. discovered that by scientifically
extracting and ecmbi:!i;ff certain medici
nal principles from native roots, taken
from our American forests, lie could pro

efficient in curing cares of blood disorder
and liver and stomach trouble as well as
nmuy ot'.ier chrouij, or lingering ail-ment3-
This concentrated extract of
Nature's vitality ho named "Golden Med
ical Discovery." It purine.; the blood by
putting the stomach and liver into
healthy condition, thereby helping the
digestion and assimilation of food which
feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak
stomach, indigestion, torpid liver, or bil
iousness, and kindred derangements.
If you havo coated tongue, with bitter
or bad taste in the morning, frequent
headaches, feel v;alc, easily tired, stitches
or pain in side, back gives out easily and

irregular bowels, feel flashes of heat al

which the "Golden Medical Discovery"
will correct more speedily and perma

Nothing is more important to Corvallis
than the pood heahh of her people. How
rail tbev fill their place in this busy
town unlei-s they are well?
No one trouble is responsible for more
nervous ill?, sleeplessness general debil
ity, weakness back-aches, rheumatic
pains, even ill-temper and peevishness,
than indigestion.
Fortunately a combination of reme
dies, called Mi-o-na stomach tablets, has
neen discovered that absolutely cures in
digestion and restores to health and
strength the whole digestive sv stem. The
use ot Mi-o-na is a safeguard against ma
ny illb ; it acts directly uuon the FastHc
uLtiids, restores perfect, action to the di
gestive organs, aids the assimilation of
lood, ana so strengthens the whple di
gestive system that you can eat anything
at any lime without fear of indigestion.
Just one little tablet out of a jQ cent
box of Mi-o-na" b-fore me&ls for" a few
days, and you will soon regain perfect
health and strength, and be able to eat
anything digestible withont fear of stom
ach dirhcu I tiee.
So reliable is Mi-o-na in ' curing all
forms of stomach weakness and troubles
that Graham & Wells give a signed zuar-
antee tha,i he remedy will coal nothing
unless it cures. Mi-o-na sells for 50 cents
and is invaluable to any one who suffers
with indigestion, nervousness or week
stomach.

Always Keeps Chamberlain's Cough
Itemedy in His House.
"We would not be without Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. It is kept on hand contin
ually in our home," says W. W. Kearney,
editor of the Independent, Lowry City, Mf.
That is just what every family should do.
When kept at hand ready for instant use, a
cold may be checked at the outset and cured
in much less time than after it has become
jettled in the system. This remedy is also
without a peer for croup in children, and
will prevent the attack when given as soon
as the child becomes hoarse, or even after
the croupy cough appears, which can only be
done when the remedy is kept at hand. For
