D., the eminent medical wri ter, In his work " Skin Diseases," thus account for the pimples so common on the (ace and neck. Eating too rich or too greasy food, or too hearty eating while the excretory organs are sluggish, causes in most people indigestion or a dyspepsial condition, which causes the blood to move slug gishly, which in turn enfeebles the pores. The result Is, that the exuding secretions block in tha pores, which inflame, cash distinct inSammar t'on being a pimple. Dr. Fox therefore does i-ot prescribe " blood purifiers" so called, but a dyspepsia cure" to be teicen, to use his owl words " till tin dyipcpaial tymptoms have ditap ptand." The old iCca was, that face eruptions were caused by a "humor in the blood," for which they treated the blood, giving the mineral potab. Uence the reason why the older sarsa parillas contain potash. Joy's Vegetable Barsa parilla follows the modern ideal of Dr. Fox, and alms with gentle vegetable alteratives at the tomach and digestive organs. The reason Is ap parent why It cures dyspepsia and indigestion, tod the pimples and skin eruptions which result therefrom, and why sarsapariUas that use mln irals fail.

SUBJECTED TO SOME QUESTIONING A GAZETTE REPORTER' TALKS WiTHf Jt COR VALLIS REAL ESTATE AOENTl A representative of tire Gaz"KtTe had oc casion to Arap into the real' estate office of Ralston Cox, on northwest corner" of Monroe' and Third streets, yesterday afternoon, ant he was lucky in Vimling that gentleman: at leisure long enough to furnish aftswers? to some questions whicfr this1 scribe pot? forth as follows: "How many lots have you sold in JobV ' addition, and how many still rem'aln?'' was) about the first. "Since I had the tract platted, which" was about the first of November, 129 lots haver been sold to people residing in Corvallis Albany, Eugeno and Portland'. To-day I received a telegram from the latter city from Mrs. Green Stating she would take block 29" paying $900. I also have sold blocks 3. 4, and 5, for $3. 600 to Spokane and Walla Walla parties. Lots 3 and 4 irt block 23, to B. F. Zeigler. for 200. In the whole tract there are 320 lots, So you see there are 191 yet to b8old." "Yon having been the prime mover in the? street railway project, what have you to say concerning the future work, Mr. Cox?' "As you well know the city has granted us the franchise asked for, it having been) done last Tuesday evening. To-morroW (Friday) afternoon there will be a meeting of the parties, t. whom the? franchise was given, in the parlors of Job's bank, to sign the articles of incorporation which haver already been dr.iwit up, and then the com' pany will have been incorporated. The name is the "Corvallis Street Railway Co." Books for capital stock subscriptions wilt be opened on Monday next, the Kith. Con' tracts are expected to yj let and work begun by the Hrst of Janirary, 1890 a hapny new year for Corvallis. Already sufficient capital is assured for the con struction of the first mile which will ran a follows: Bi ginning on Main street at the crossing leading to postotlice and running: north to the intersection of M tin aud Mon roe streets, here it will to-in west up Monroe to Seventh, thence north along Seventh past Messrs. Cooper, Brysoi:, and! Ray 'a resiliences to Harrison street, turning west' ward again to Ninth street near barn of J. M. Applewhite, thence along county road north to the main street leadhig ir.W Job's addition. We have been correspond' ing for the past month with car companies) in 'Frisco and the east relative to the: necea S'iry equipments of the road, ami already7 have received several catalogues showing; prices and styles of cars, but as yet no de cision has been made as to the kind we shall purchase. I can assure you, however, that what we purchase will be of the most modern and improved style. To construct in ore of the road will, of course; necessitate the receiving of subscriptions which will be given their fnil value in the stock of the company, and next week you can hav a list of the subscribers who have taken stock, anil I will say here that those who desire to sub scribe towards this enterprise will find the books open at Job's bank. Yon can sy that every little helps to build tfftit much more road." "What about this 'central park-,' that has been given to the city, Mr. Cox?'' "Central park is situated ill Job's addition and covers the whole of block 20, being; 200x300 feet At Monday's meeting of the council this park was deeded to the- city. And a vote of thauks was tendered, and tliu deed ordered recorded. It is the intention of the city to take hold of this business and with the aid of private subscriptions make it a thing of beauty. The necessary shrub' bery to be planted will be placed in charee of an experienced gardener and taste will be shown in the arrangement. This park is about one-half mile tronf the court boose. Seventeen dollars anil a half have been sulf scribed up to to-day towards beautifying it, and subscriptions will be received any time." "What do yon think of the fntare of Corvallis?" Was tbe next question "shoved'' at him. "Corvallis has a great future, I think Of course, she never can equal a seaport city like Astoria, or be a place greater than Portland, but a great city will be built up here right in the heart of the valley. Every day I am receiving letters of inquiry from Portland real estate men about ptoperty here. They 'want to be posted on value' of business lots and other property, and anv acreage adjoining the cify, 100 or more,' and want me to 'send some of your bargains.' We have the best and finest situated eulmr bau property in the v.illey, and with a little extra exertion can make Corvallis boom all over. No one need be afraid to invest ii real estate here for it will certain! v increase rapidly in value in '90. To-day i received my lithograph maps of Corvallis, anrf Job's and Belmont addition. Yon see it gives tbe lay of the city, and additions, all the principal buildings, tlie proposed water ditch, the route of the street railway, the railroads, agricultural college, thu proposed! bridge across the Willamette, and gives the amount of money expended hi improvements' in '89. This was all done at my own ex pense, and I have 1,000 of them to dU' tribute to those who will place them where they will do the most jrooiL" ' ''Where is Belmont addition, yotf spoke about?' "It is located nort i of this city and iut the Eglin 43-acre tract. Here is the cross ing of the 8. P. ami O. P. and at this cross ing a depot will Iw erected but I am telling; you too inueh. As coining events cast their shadows before tliem, yoa already have the shadow watt for the event.
