The Myrtle Creek country is destined
to beceme one of the greatest producers
of strawberries to be found on the west
em continent. It has just been recent
ly discovered that strawberries grow
lareer here and ripen earlier by three
weeks than they do in the famous Hood
River valley in Eastern Oregon, which
is noted almost the world over for its
fine fruit and berries. But while it re
quires irrigation at Hood River, it is not
the case here, and in this respect Myr
tie Creek has a decided advantage over
any other section in the growing of
berries and fruits, as tbe nature of the
eoil here is such that it does not require
irrigating. Myrtle Creel Mail.
A Feminine Sawmill Operator.
Tuesday the Owl family and Mrs
James H. Dearing and children were on
the Upper Calapooia and Hinkle Creek,
We tarried a few hours at Cooper and
Dake's Saw mill, drank cool water from
living streams and enjoyed refreshing
breezes from mountain forests. The
saw mill .above mentioned and Xorris:
shingle mill were busy filling orders for
their respective products. In the even
ing we tarried at McCollum's mill
where Mr. McCollum, Miss Emma and
Sir Edwin were busy planning as uperio
grade oMumber. Miss McCollum is not
only a good house-keeper, but an all
around saw mill expert. She can ran
the engine, the saw or the planer. If
we were 20 years younger we would buy
a saw mill and employ Miss McCollum
as general manager. While the rest of
the family are working in the mill, Mrs
McCollum is not idle by any means
Besides attending to her household
dnties she grows one the best gardens in
the state. We hope to become better
acquainted with the people of Upper
Caliapooia and Li inkle Creek in the
near future. Oakland Owl.

Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea After
Ten Years of Suffering.
I wish to sayia few words in praise of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarr
hoea Remedy," says Mrs. Mnttio Itnrge,
of Martinsville, Va. "I Miffeied from
chronic diarrhoea for ten years and dur
ing that time tried various medicines
without obtaining any permanent relief.
Last summer ono of my children was
taken with .cholera morbus, and I pro
cured a bottlo of this remedy. Only
two doses were required to give her en
tire relief. 1 then decided to try the
medicine myself, and did not use all of
one bottle before I was well and I have
never sinco been troubled with that
complaint. One cannot say too much
in favor of that wonderful medicine.'

Our sole knowledge of the peo-
: on otner worlds ana now far
people there differ from our
inhabitants, can only be guessed by
comparisoB ith animal nature on this
small sphere of ours. More important
to us is a knowledge of ourselves.
"Know Thyself" was an old Greek
thought. How to take care of one's
own body is not so simple as seme think:
the human mechanism is a wonderful
thing and requires watching.
One man who has done more to teach
the American people how to care for their
bodies than almost any other, is Dr. R. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., the Author of the
"Common Sense Medical Adviser." He
jays: It is not the quantity of the food
eaten which produces strength and health
(for some people can keep stronp on a very
meagre diet), but it is how much food is
absorbed and assimilated by tbe blood and
carried to nourish every organ of the body.
It is, therefore, vitally neceasary for the
body that the stomach be in a healthy
state. If disease of the stomach, or what fs
called "stomach trouble," prevents proper
nutrition then the heart, liver, lungs, and
kidneys do not get proper food they are
not fed on rich red blood, and in conse
quence, begin to show signs of distress.
Outwardly these sins may be pimples
and eruptions on skin, pale face, sleepless
nights, tired, languid feelings, or, by reason
'of the nerves not being fed on pure blood,
they become starved, and we receive a
warning in the pain we call neuralgia.
Rheumatism, too, is a blood disease. After
years of practice and study Dr. Pierce
found that an Alterative Extract, which he
named "Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery," made from the extracts of several
plants, invariably produced a tonic effect
upon the system. It helped the process of
absorption of the healthy elements in the
food and increased tbe red corpuscles of
the blood, as well as eliminated the poisons
from the system.
Business is business. No time for head
aches. Constipation causey them. Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure them by cur
ing.the cause. Laxative and mild.
