Kin? Edward ha had a never? chill, but that might be ex pected, when aie considers the difficul ty and strain through which h must have gone in choosing the robe and matching the colors for his corona tion u'S;. Many wmen folks tive hysteria after choosing a new gown. But, with the different changes :tj going of ewnta, It 5 natural for people to look forward to greater things. With election and It many battk-s over; with Merrill and Tracy still holding the aUentSon of the country. It it difficult thing Indeed to find some way of getting new novelties or pleasures. But to the surface is brought the Fourth of July program to be given under the auspices of the Clerks' ITnlon. An entertainment for whkh no pain have been spared end far which goodly ruin lias been -aised by subscription. It is a splendid be ginning and will of course reap good results. For where a sound p'npoe is involved and a staunch determina tion shown, nothing will f.iU. It speaks well for Astoria, to have a ' body of young men. who through their leisure hours are buiiding up an or ganization to ameliorate the conditions of those employed in the wore So much for the men. The gentle sex is not without de sires and aspirations. They are de termined to have a clean city, and nndwhtedly tlwy will suceeel. Wo man always will have her way. and why not. Surely the cleanly house wife should be able to tell. Just how to clean the streets and beautify the different walks and byways. For ex amples there are many cities which can be referred to, where woman has had the authority of cleaning the streets and these places are splendid recommendations for her aMUtv. As toria with a Wc man's Society for cleanliness, and a Clerks' Union has certainly much to be prrwd of. July spirit. The every penny he can secure Is quickly Invented in storks of fire wirk anil booming cannon. He dream of nought else in hts slum hem, think of naught else in the day. In fact he spwks nothing more or less than firecrackers, and Uiigs ft" that day of extra privileges as only a tou can long. But the older men. the men of the civil war day he too, seems to have a great interest in this coming cele bration. Perhaps because the Mr of cannon and fire works will bring back to him the recollections of youngw years. of years when he too, shared in the .i-t hi grandn hxtay m enjoys. The nation is preivaring for the spending of the day. young and old. men and women all seem to feel the blood ruh, faster down their veins an the day draws near. But this Is well, so long as patrio tism f!os freely. so long wilt the na tion be a great nation. So long the feeling and love for country is the leading and upmost feeding. Awriva is safe and unconquerable. ! EIElll CHOOSING A LIFE WORK. The ocean of life is filled with dere- .- THE GLORIOUS FOURTH. It Is not necessary to refer to the calendar of works of science to know that the greatest of gheat festal days is close at hand. The youngest to the oldest school boy fa already over flowing with .the genuine Fourth of j leels of failures. Men who wander j aimlessly through the walks f Jife- and j why? The cause in most of the cases 1 is the failure to learn either a trade i or a good profession. It Is not the map j with a good mechanical training who j has difficulty in obtaining work. NJt the skilled workman who loiters about 1 the streets. But the man who neglect- j ed this and is capable only of doing such work as mostly anyone can do if he desires. It Is very important step for the youth to determine as he drifts from fco; h xxl into the more i mature life manhood." ! And If right reasoning is not used, j the remainder of his life is apt to be j i a failure and a loss. A man is better fitted for life who j has a trade of some kind behind even ! though he is of a profession. A man j who can work and do it belter than j anyone else is the man who not only j reaches the top most round of t!V lad- j der of success and reape the great ; harvest of life. j Not to be a professional man or a j merchant but to be the best in what- j ever line he chooses to fallow, is a i motto every boy should Instill in his heart and live after. ; A BOLD DEED. Good enough for anybody! yLL Havana Filler mmw Yav. -.v gvJi. 3 It seems that it is natural that some fad or craie shall be vi.nl ted upon the people now and then. With two con victs at large, it seems that it should be sufficient for a while at least. But i not o. These convicts have done many dastardly deeds, but still there are others. A much fadder case is hardly known than that of Mary Sol e?ki who was robbed by two thug in St. Louis recently. under the very dome of the Union Station, she with her two children were kidnapped and robbed of II MO and then hours after- ! wards found wandering near the river ' in a delirious condition. Mrs. Soieski j in route for Astoria where she i has friends. Nothing has been heard of the thug. She is still confined in the t'ity Hospital in a dangerous con dition. Her two children, one and three ! years old. respectfully, are with her.

The reason for the thorough cure of emptire diseases efj.vtwl by the use of JJr. I lercc a Golden Medical Discovery is this : It entirely clean the bl..d from the imparities which cause the diseases. Until these cornmtino- imr.i.riti..- .. ranored there can be no permanent cure. Pimply boils s.res etc., are only the outward signs of the inward disease. To cure the disease the ca-we must be cured, and Golden Medical Discovery " absolutely eliminate from the MoihI the corrupt and clogging elements which cause disfiguring eruptions. It r.t..res the ("kin to normal smoothness, and the pure, healthy blood supply produced by its means dyes the cheek with the ruddy hue of health. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets should be used with the Discovery " when the bowels are irregular or the liyer biggish. The two medioine are eninvially adapted to be used together whenever a laxative is required. The manifest motive for substitution is to enable the dealer to make the little more profit paid on the sale of less meritorious remedies. To accept a suWtitutc med.eine as "just ai good" as "Golden Medical Discovery" is to rrpet the folly of the familiar fable and trade substance for shadow. r I J X " r n 4 0J"Q-lll.; rr. 1 O THE BEST BOOK vom emit harm mm a mamm iiW sMrftcai guldm im Dr. nmrmmfm Cmmmh fun Mmdiemt 4rfrMv Thtm mwmmi mmtk oontaining ow a thouaana largm amgmm, mud mora lham TOO Uhtmirmtlmma, im mmnt FREE on rmcaipt ml mlampm Im may mapmnmm ml mail mm OaTLT.
