Lives of Suffering and Sorrow Averted And Happiness and Prosperity Assured by . Cuticora Soap, Ointment and Pills When All Else Fails. Every child born Into the world with an inherited or rly developed ten dency to distressing, disfiguring hu mours of the skin, scalp and blood, be comes an object of the most tender so licitude, not only because of its suffer ing, but because of the dreadful fear that tbe disfiguration is to be lifelong and mar its future happiness and pros perity. Hence it becomes the duty of mothers ot such afflicted children to ac quaint themselves with the beat, the purest and most eSectlve treatment available, viz., The Cuticura Treatment. Warm baths with Cuticura Soap to cleanse the skin and scalp cf crusts and scales, gentle applications of Cuticura Ointment, to aliay itching, irritation and Inflammation, and soothe and heal, and mild doses of Cuticura Resolvent Pills, to cool the blood in the severer cases, are all that can be desired for the alleviation of the suffering of skin tor tured infants and children, and the com fort of worn-out parents. Miliionsof women useCuticura Soap, agisted by Cuticura Ointment, for pre serving, purifying and beautifying the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales and dandruff, and the stopping of falling hair, for softening, whitening sud soothingred, rough and sore hands, fur baby mbes, itchings and chf lings, in the form of washes for annoying Irritation nd Inflammations, and for many sanative, antiseptic purpose wUi'b readily suggest themselves.

San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, Lot Anjtlt and Dot national guard encampment tins year will lie assigned to Gearhart park. The assemblin of the state and national troops in camp means that in the neigh titrhood of 5000 people will be attracted to the place of encampment. This ir.eans business for the business mrn. hotels and boarding houses not only of Seaside but also of Astoria, as many of the visitors will visit In this city be fore returning to their homes. Inducements to secure the selection of tbe sit at Gearhart park for the en-eimrar-est should be offered in the way J of tow railroad rates, this twin? the finest Important factor in the selection of the site " While the railroad com- and federal governments a special rate lhy would tw protected by the sale of tickets to visitors who would be attract fd to the camp, a rough estimate plaC' big the number at thousands. It is well known that the choice of the troops for the site of the encamp ment is Gearhart park, and it is also understood that the only obstacle standing in the way of the selection. of that place is the failure of the A ft C. R. to make a special rate. Negotiations are still pending, however and there is still a possibility of Gear hart park being selected. It is now up to the railroad company. ASTORIAN3 have reason to feet proud of the charming little lady who will reign over the regatta. Miss Fran, ces Thomas has resided in the comma nity a good many years, considering her age. and by her bright personality and" winsome manner has endeared herself to the hearts of a host of friends and acquaintances, all of whom re joice in her election. She is well qual ified to make her reign an auspicious event, and being mindfut of the res pnnsibHity that rests upon her regal (shoulders, will undoubtedly acquit her self with becoming grace and dignity. AT least the ladies who were inter ested in the election of a regatta queen will now have a better understanding f the "wheels within whels" thafcon trol the fortunes of a successful candi date, y FROM the vast quantity of fish brought In during the last few days one would imagine that there had been a sprinting match instead of a run among the Royal Chinooks.

B. Long, harness maker, employ ed with John Clark A Son, 104 Front street, Portland, who resides at 318 Sec ond street, same city, says: "Early last summer I broke out all over with body ecienu tetter or itch. I did not know Just what it was nor what caused its appearance, but I do know that the tor ture I vendured was something Here. I was very mu.-h alarmed about It.wns anxious .o know what It wis and what caused it. I thought Hie brst thing to do was to go to a doctor for treatment. I jld so and was treated by different ones but they failed to do me any good When I became the least bit overheat ed I Just fairly clawed the skin off me, Anyone who has never had anything of the kind knows nothing at all about It. I wws In bad shupe when I noticed an advertisement In our paiwr about Down's Ointment being a sure cure for such afflictions. I said to myself: there's another fake, but I'll try It.' It proved to be all that Is claimed for It. Less :han two boxes made a com plete cure In my case. About this time my younger brother "was taken with the same affliction. A box and a half of Dean's Ointm-nt cured him. I know what I am talking about when I aay that Doaa's Ointment Is one remedy which can be depended upon."
