Some Seasonable Advice.
It may be a piece of superfluous ad
vice to urge people at this time of the
year to lay in a supply of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. It is almost sure
to be needed before winter is through,
and much more prompt and satisfac
tory results are obtained when taken
as soon as a cold is contracted and be
'fore it has become settled in the sys
tem which can only be done by keeping
the remedy at baud. This remedy is
so widely known and so altogether good
that uo one should hesitate about buy
ing it in preference to any other. It is
for sale by O. O. Krogstad.

an electric plant in Toledo light could

Over Two Million.
With the two million mark passpd,
and pros peats oxcellenWor Foiling up
another half million before the gate?
are closed for the last time on the
uight of October 14, the Lewis and
Clark Exposition is an jassured finan
cial success. The remarkable attend
ance demonstrates also that the Fair
has pleased the people, and that is an
other source of gratification. It is evi
dent that the enormous attendance
could not have been rolled up unless
the Fair had received frequent testi
monials from early visitors.
It is evident now that &bc Fair will
bo, in point of attendance and in every
other respect, the most Successful Ex
position ever held. Comparisons with
the records made at the Trans-Miss-issipni
Exposition at Umaha, an expo
sition of about the same magnitude as
that now drawing to a close, aud which
has been generally conceded to have
been the most successful of all fairs,
show that the exposition will outdo the
ohowinw rtadft by tb Mtfrn enter
prise. This is considered more re
markable when the statemeut is made
that Omaha had a population of 13,
000,000 within a day's journey, while
there reside within a similar radius of
Portland not more than 1,800,000 souls.

A boy who had been working in a
bakershop for some time was just about
to finish his trade. One night when
the boss was gone he broke the marble
slab he moulded his loaves on. So he
went to the marble-yard to secure an
other, but could not dud ono. On his
way back he passed a graveyard,' and as
it was very dark he jumped over and
pulled up a small headstone .about the
right size and took it back and finished
his job. The next diiv, after the bread
had been delivered, ueurly all of it was
sent back. The baker looked at it and
broke several loaves open, but found
nothing wrong. Then ho happened to
turn one of the loaves over, and found
on the under side of the loaf the in

Remedy. The reason for this is that
they know there is no danger from it
and that it always cures. There is not
tho least danger in giviug it, and for
coughs, colds and croup it is unsur
passed. Fox sale by O O. Krogstad.
