Just call in and you will find that his prices are the LOWEST Modesty is the Crown of Maidenhood and Motherhood, and yet there have been liter ally millions of women crushed to death by that crown. that shining- srmbol of woman's sovereignty in the home. Here is A TOO'O OIBX Standins; with reluctant (ret Where womanhood ssd girlhood meet." In the first critical oeriod of her Hie she begins to experience suffering which she necessarily connects with the organ of sex. What it is she does not know. Why it is she does not understand. She needs medi cal advice. Bat she shrinks from it. Her modesty is np in arms at the thought of questions to be asked, of examinations to be submitted to, both alike repugnant to delicacy. So she suiters in silence. The strain on the delicate machinery of her organism becomes more severe, ramnu irregularities become yet more paranii. And so. atlently. she treads the painful path to confirmed invalidism. Her crown of modesty becomes a crown of thorns. She sees the glowing lamp ngnt ot cneer ful homes. She hears the cooing of the happy babe, the prattle of joyous children, andjshe fears that all that life of home and love is not for her. Or take the other typical case of the woman who has entered on the cares and DCTIES OP WIFEHOOD. She has always been healthy and happy. But now a change comes. Her eye loses hs brightness. Her step loses its spring. The color fades from her cheek. Fre quently she is compelled to lie down and rest. She is in constant pain. She looks dreadingly down the calendar toward the hour when the burden of motherhood will be laid upon her. She, too, needs help. But .she too suffers silently, because she cannot speak and open the door to such questions or such examinations as her modesty revolts at. Ana yei ail in is sui fering is, as has been said, unnecessary, because to match modesty of speech there is modesty of bearing. There is one physician who has fully met the needs of modest women by offering absolute confidence in bearing abwlule confidence in consultation combined with absolute competence in treatment. His remarkable discoveries and the way in which he has met woman's peculiar needs has made Ir. R. V. Pierce (chief consult ing physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y.), the friend and confidant of tens of thousands of modest women. In over thirty years experience with female disorders of every possioie rype, I renting mem 10 me uumoer of hundreds of thousands, Dr. Pierce has been brought into relation with every form of feminine weakness, feminine pecul iarity, and feminine disease. Where a local practitioner has experimented and ies and advice have gone staight to the root and cured ten thousand. Every varia tion of symptomatology is known to this life-long specialist. The presence of com plications that confuse and baffle the ordin ary practitioner are every day experiences and every day successes to him. His medical discoveries and his confi dential, fatherly advice, are to-day tbe only harbors to which weak, nopelens, unior tunate woman can turn for help and get it ninety-seven times out of every hundred. Those who turn to him experience at once, instead of a skirmishing with symptoms, a banishing of suffering. Hia "Favorite Prescription" not only removes all pain ful female irregularities but acts directly on the delicate organs that suffer in the strain and stress connected with mother hood. It supplies vital force and energy. Dr. Pierce is at all times ready to give advice, free of Charge, to those who employ hia remedies. Address him as above.

At a meeting of teachers and superin tendents in the interest cf better school laws held in Portland yesterday Prof. Martindale and Superintendent McDon ald attended from Albany, Prof. Tyree of La Grande was present and K. A. Milner, a former Albany man was con spicuous and pointed in his remarks on the text book proposition. The council of Prinevile has appointed G. W. Barnes and M. E. Brink "to . draft a new charter for the towln of Prineville. stock of adjectives than I have, "Per fectly beautiful" is vorv appropriate but "really grand" is better, The.halls and main parts of the building are white marble. To relieve this cold irliileneas artistic borders and designs' of mother pearl and gold leaf .are inlaid into the marble. The most beautiful place is tbe 'otundu where the general public line up to get books. The dome is transparent mellow shades of glass supported by-canopied arches of mother of pearl and gold in most elaborate designs. These arches sparkle like thousands ot diamonds in the soft liltt shed from unique chande liers. That the city whlcl'haa been called, well, rather "pokey" affords sirch a building, which, with the good it fluea in supplying reading matter to the pubiic, also cultivates the artistic enoe la ct-r- Uu uly a real prophesy of what this center of culture in the west is going to be to the western halt of our land. Another place of interest to visitors is the Board of Trade building. Upon the morning of the last day ot the month, for this is the big day, a party of ut went to this mart to watch them buying and selling in the pit. Locking from the visitors gallery to your right uiiou the mam Boor is the largest telegraph oilice in the or!J. The Urge number of ma chines emp'oyed keeps the ar busy witii quick vibra.ius lu I root of you at the oilier end -t ihe building is the crn pit, to the lei t in lronl are the wheat and oat pits. The shortage on this day ( 1 believe in is is proper) was in wheat so our inter est was centered in this pit. Jt was completely tilled with men baying and seuiug. Hie apace between this and the telegraph orhce was kept lively with fly ing messenger boys, and when the ex citement reached its I eight at about twelve thirty, for they ckwe at one, the sight was an animated one. Tbe men were gesticulating wildly witu two or three lingers raised, or sawing the air with three fingers out horizontally, and when eome fellow who was buying a good deal got away down in the pit the other iello8 took him by the collar and forci bly ejected him. thus making ibins rather exciting. 1 should be delighted to explain all these finger aiiins U you but am told only a n amoer of the Board is qualined to imparl such knowledge. 1 wonder bow many ol the Iemocrat readers know of lowey and his tine church? On Sunday afternoon a num- tr of us went to hear him. The church is an interesting place. leaidjs the main floor the church has two galleries running clear aronnd to the front where they merge into one tier of seats for the choir. The wall above the choir seats is the first thing you notice. Instead oi the usual ornamentation used in church dec oration Zion has something entirely new. In the center of this space uarrun om posed o! crutches, supposed to be cut off by those healed by Dowey. On botli sides of the crown are stars and crosses of the same articles. Below luccrown ts a heart of cast off brace and stilt more crutches and canes arranged in fan shapes. Sprinkled all around these fig ures are brace of alt sixes. Altogether the effect is unique and doublles the ono of its kind in the land. IVwn in front of the choir stands the' only original Ir. Dower. I say only original fir 1 never heard a man talk who aj soopenly con ceited as this man There are a few of too who will be interested in bis dis course so I will report some of it to you. All would be impossible for although locked in with, the rest of the audience it was impossible to endure to the end. I. Dowey's purpose in bringing hia flock together was to "smash" the Christian Alliance The reason it bad to be utter ly demolished was because the President ur. s.mpson tiaa written a letter vo a muaionary in China saying that he, Dowey. bad sought the support f t e Christian Alliance and now, as this sup port was denied, that be was trying to prosecute the Christian Alliance, lor this implication of lowey'e superior pos ition tbe Christian Alliance must there fore be a very vile institution and it was imperative for him to "smash u so n proceeded in very Christian like spirit to "idimIi" by tearing Dr. oimpson's private cliaracter to atoms. The scandal be told to his eager flock was fit for a Police Gazette and the tbject in view was aa worth v as hia tales. Personally Dr. Dowey is a rather a fine looking mid dle aed 'man. Wears patent leather shoes, full dress clothe and poses equal in the boot in hia sensational line. .Some of tiie business men take novel ways of advertising their goods. In front of the Glasgow Woolen tiooda Co. you might have seem a full Highlander costumed. The bare knees looked rather chilly in the cold breezes here and it said that when compelled to don a com mon overcoat over his plaid the effect was rather odd. Tbe latest adverti, ment oi tins nrm is a young man in bright bicycle costume riding an Elite wheel some 15 feet high, its rather a sight to see him mount it in the midst of cars, cabs, wagons, etc Another novel ty in this line is a man on stilts dressed like a giant, or a real giant fantastically costumed with a dwarf as a companion, orsnAlvin Joelin with tbe enevitable carpet bag and a pretty country lass up on his arm to wnom n :ioi the eiehta of the city. Wherever you see these two gazing in vacant wonder at tbe top oi the buildings you are su.c to see crowd. Among some of the good things that tbe city has afforded in the theatrical line this season have been two military plays one oi me t ivn vt ar time and one of the Revolutionary time. These are Secret Service" by illiam Gillette and Nathan Hale" by Nat Goodwin. "Sec ret Service" is a very thrilling play full of momentum and intensely interesting, from its variety of characters, from the first. Alaxine f.lliott as Nathan's sweet heart is doubtless the center of attract ion in "Nathan Hale." Not onlv is she as beautiinl as we have been led'to think she is but also does some very clever work. That scene at the last, where she is bidding Nathan goodbye just be' fore he is to do snot is a very Una niece ol emotional work. No better standard of such work can be attained than its effect and certainty the audience audi bly sobbed with her. During Grand Upera season it was my pleasure to hear jMiwoura ise iteszge, the famous bass The opera was "Martha." His voice, presence and action was superb. There is a satisfaction to ones artistic sense ol finish in a goud performance of an opera tbat words without the music do not wholly give. Upon last Friday nittht I heard Mansfield in the famous Cyrano I Do Bergerac. The play is drawing big houses ana is decidedly interesting. (Jyrano Is a historical cliaracter will prominent cartilsgo upon his face. The iiict that the wholo plot rests nnon this (leioriniiy is at once ridiculous and pa thetic Cyrano is one who ever plays a thadow part. He wooes and Christian takes the kineca. He writes and Moliure gels the credit. Mansfield's fine figure and enrringe; enables him to assume this repulsive bi nose without being entire ly ugly. The lines of the play are very clever and I would advise anyone who could to read it. Uoxane, the heroine, is a very sweet character but the play revolves aiound Cyrano with such per sistence that every ether character is forgotten. Of course thero are all kinds of new fads named 4Cyrano," The Cyrano chains of beads, pearl, coral and tur quoise, about two yards long and worn twice or three times around the neck are quite the thing.
