Oregon.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
May 22. (Special.) The scien
tific name of the group of plants
known as the buttercup family is
Ranunculaceac, meaning a little frog.
This refers to the fact that many of
the buttercups proper grow more read
ily in damp places. It Is a large fam
ily, having representatives everywhere
and showing a wide diversity of struc
ture. All the Individuals agree in hav
ing the stamens attached to the head
of the flower stem or receptacle, be-

cases are more than one in number
and simple. The rose family differs
from the buttercup family in that the

"WHILE of course there are serious cases of feminine ills that nothing but a surgical operation will remedy, the
VV indisputable fact remains that hundreds of operations have been avoided by the wonderful medicinal virtue of
Lydia E. Pinktiam's Vegetable Compound
and the very best proof of this is the unsolicited and grateful letters of the recovered ones themselves. By special
permission we publish here four of them put of hundreds we have:

Louiaville, Ky. "I think if more suffering women would
take Lydia K. l'inkliam's Vegetable Compound they would
enjoy better health. I suffered from a female trouble, and
the doctors decided I had a tumorous growth and would have
to be operated upon, but I refused as I do not lelieve in
operations. I had fainting spells, bloated, and could hardly
stand the pain in my left side. My husband insisted that I
try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and I am so
thankful I did, for I am now a well woman. I sleep better,
do all my housework and take long walks. I never fail to
praise Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for my good
health." Mrs. J. M. ItEScn,1900 W.Broadvay,Louisville,Ky.

years that I expected to have to undergo an operation, but
the first bottle I took of Lydia E. l'iukham's Vegetable
Compound relieved me of the pains in my side and I con
tinued its use until I became regular and free from pains. I
had asked several doctors if there was anything I could take
to help ine and they said there was nothing that they knew
of. I am thankful for such a good medicine and will alwavs
give it the highest praise." Mrs. C. H. Griffith, IfiHK

If you are ill do not drapr alonjr until an operation is nec

Charlotte, N.C. M I was in bad health for two years, with pains in both
sides and was very nervous. I had a growth which the doctor said was a
tumor, and I never would get well unless I had an ojeration. A friend ad

that I am now enjoying fine health." Mrs. Uosa Sims, 1G Winona St., Char-

stamens are attached to the calyx in
the former. The two representatives of
the buttercup family chosen for de
scription this week are larkspur and
columbine.
Larkspur (Figs. 1 and 2) The mean
ing of the common name Is evident.
Scientifically It is called Delphinium,
from the Latin, meaning: Dolphin, on
account of its fancied resemblance to
this animal in side view. The forms
are varied as to color, size and distribu
tion, and occur in all parts of Oregon
and the United States. Generally It
has but a single spur and its pistils
ripen into several pods, which burst
to liberate tha seed. Some species are
regarded as poisonous for stock.
Columbine (Figs. 2 and 4) This com
mon name is from the Latin columba.
or dove, and refers to the imaginary
similarity to a group of doves. In
some localities the. flower is known
as honeysuckle because of the sweet
nectar at the bottom of the spurs. The
scientific name is Aquilegia, from the
Latin aquila, an eagle, from the talon
like spurs. The tall, slender species
with its red and yellow flowers Is to
be found in Macleay Park. Portland,
and is widely disseminated through
out Oregon. The yellow, white and
blue forms are found chiefly in East
ern Oregon, v
The insect that obtains its honey in
a legitimate way and thus becomes the
agent of cross pollination, must have a
long proboscis, but there are robbers
who, being unable to drink the nectar
in the way Nature intended, bore
through the spurs and steal It.

CHURCH MONEY LONG LOST
Superintendent Kinds Collection He
Put Away in 188.
CARMI. III.. May 15 Frank E.
Pomeroy, president of the White County
bank, found an old envelope in his
private safe recently marked "April,
1886, Sunday School Collection."
Pomeroy was treasurer of the Metho.
dint Church Sunday school in 1885 and
evidently misplaced the package, whicli
contained Just 70 cents in different
coins.
Singularly he is still treasurer of
the same Sunday school, and after
brushing away the cobwebs lost no
time in placing the fund on deposit to
the order of the Sunday school.
