Sent by mail, per year, In advance tl 00 ' By LYON & PATTERSON The Astorian guarantees to Its ad vertisers the largest circulation of any newspaper published on the Columbia River. IK The Tillamook Herald, a standard authority on & good many things, gives this advice to budding society girls: A good imtiy girls Just launch ed Into society and on the hunt for hus bands believe that they Improve their opportunities by taking and . giving many confidences and by getting as close as possible to persona whom they meet. But they are in error. A girl who opens her soul tovery man finds that in time they flee from her as they would from pestilence or famine. man has no good use for such a woman and the remat-ka that he makes to his friends concerning her would make a monkey's ear burn. The value of con fldence. like the value of wheat and potatoes, is regulated by the supply. A girl must be exclusive If Bhe would be highly respected and loved. According to the reported annual eX' penses of the sultan of Turkey he must be a "good fellow." It la estimated that his expenses are $430,000,000. Of this 37,500,000 alone Is spent on the clothing of the women, and $400,000 on the sultan's own wardrobe. Nearly an other $7,500,000 is swallowedup by pres ents, $5,000,000, goes for pocket money, and still another $3,000,000 for the table. It seems incredible -hat so much money can possibly be spent in a year by one man, but when It is remembered that some 1,500 people reside within the pal ace walls, and live luxuriously and dress expensively at the cost of the civil list, it appears a little more com' prehensible. His expenses and cussed, ness go hand-ln-hand. ' The harvest number of the Oregon Daily Statesman was Issued yesterday and it is a very creditable effort. It : contains 38 pages including a map of the state. It is devoted almost exclus ively to exploitation of the resources of the heart of the Willamette valley and copious illustrations adorn the pages As ; toria is not mentioned In the reading matter of the paper but on the map it Is shown 'to be located where It was1 foundejj by John Jacob Astor at the Coljj'ijbia's wide mouth and where It . AvIU ever remain. . The preliminary report of the North ern Pacific for this year shows gross earnings of over $46,000,000 and net $22,000,000. This Is an Increase of over $44,000,000 In gross earnings and over $2,000,000 In net earnings. The net earn ings for the year are almost as large as the grows earnings for 189S,when Mellen assumed the presidency. JThe striking feature of the report is the low ratio of operating expenses to the gross earn ings. - Nearly half of the gross receipts are saved for the net earnings. About $3,000,000 is set aside from the final sur plus for additional betterments. Made in California where materials art produced. The lowest priced roofing made.

There they would learn, he says, that there Is no occasion for despondency from a com mercial point of view. They would find plenty doing, plenty of money and plenty of products, "Congressman Herman, "says the Gardner Qacette, "has promised to In troduce a bill to prohibit the towing of large rafts on the open sea. This prac tice is becoming a dangerous menace, not only to the shipping interests of our coast, but to ocean travel as well, and should by ell means be suppressed at once." They are selling pools in Europe on which of the great rulers will be as sassinated first. There are several fa vorites but King Peter of Servia looks like a good one for place.

MAINLY ABOUT DRESS. Hainilton Fish, assistant United States treasurer, who has been making a trip to the Pacific coast, tells the pessimistic people in Wall street that Excellent showings are being made In furs this month and advertised as the September sale. The new effects are more exclusive than those of last season, as furs have advanced in price. A very noticeable feature of the new coats Is that they all show a great deal of work, hand work that makes them look like real coats and not a fur wrap. Among the most expensive, as well as the moat fashionable coats of fur are those of sable. This fur is con sidered the first choice. The new sable coats are often trimmed in ermine, and ermine fur shows sable trimmings. . Chinchilla and black lynx are shown as two of the most desirable furs. The stripes in the chinchillas are managed In the cleverest way. Big stoles and big muffs In the handsome black lynx are eonspicious. Many of the new fur coats are made In the Russian blouse style. These are of course very expensive on ac count of the length of the skirts. Models in 28 inches, 22 Inches -and 24 inches are all shown, and a good deal of faith is placed In these, as they are not so high in price. Novelties are shown in muffs that are lined with fur. It is said that muffs were not lined for any extra amount of warmth, but rather for the added touch of elegance. The finest muffs are lined w5th ermine, because its color is best adapted to this use. Some of the newest creations In fur have lace and passementerie trimming. Applique and' drop ornaments are ap plied on the newest effects and are considered the height of fashion. We shouldn't mind woman having the laat word if she'd only get to it soon MISS IDA M. SNYDER, Treasurer of the Brooklyn East End Art Club. That's precisely what the proposition is. Not something for nothing, but actual value for one-third of what the same goods would cost you elsewhere.

Sept 21, 'OS I have been requested by The As torian to write a recommendation of a work entitled "Life and Life-work of Pope Leo XIII," by J. J. MoGovern, D. D. It Is a pleasure to comply with this request. In this volume we find con densed In compact form, all the facts of interest In the life of the great world-figure concerning whom It treats. Tt Is preeminently a practical biogra phy, Intended for the busy man with little time to spare; it displays an in sight Into the great pontiffs career which denotes the close observer and careful studene on the part of the com piler. No man, be be a Cathollo or a non-Catholle, can lay claim to a thorough knowledge of the political, social, religious history of the last quarter of the nineteenth century, who is Ignorant of the lire and work of Loo XIII. This volume will In a measure, furnish a key to the secret of the deceased pontiff's wonderful ' success and Influence In the world at large. The author pays special at tention lo Leo's attitude towards the t'uited States. The chapters devoted to a consideration of "Leo XIII and Education"' and "Activities In Behalf of Labor" are very timely. The even, non-polemnical tone of the volume re comirtm.l it alike to believer and un believer. The perusal of this book must needs prove uplifting. The typographical work la well done and the Illustrations are highly Inter esting, .and considering the price for which the volume Is off-red It Is all that could be desired. We bespeak for thla work a wide circulation. JOHN WATERS, Pastor of St. Mary's Church. son caret to learn when referring to a book of thui kind. II. 8. LYMAN, County Superintendent of Schools.

MitS. F. D. KUETTNBR. As it would hardly be fair to old subscribers to offer any or all of these valuable works to new subscribers, since there is iw increase in the price of tho paper', The Astorian, in a spirit of fairness, hereby extends the same privilege to its old subscribers and invites them to step into the oflko and secure for $1.00 one ol these $3.00 books. Bear in mind that we mean exactly what we say in referring to the very limited number of books in the consignments. SO COME EARLY AND AVOID THE RUSH AND DON'T GET LEFT. DOWN THE BAY WITH KITTY.

With the vitality at a low ebb, the blood weak ened, the digestion disor dered, she goes about pale faced, hollow-eyed andnag gard, a piteous contrast to Die blooming health of hsr former self. But over 1 JWt.noO urinien have found health again by taking Wine of Cardui. As a regulator of the menstrual periods Wine of Cardui baa never been rnown to fail. It has seldom failed to restore perfect health, even in the most persis tent and aggravated case of weakness. Miss Ida M. Snyder, of No. 535 Ber gen Stroet, Brooklyn, N. Y has used Wine of Cardui and she says it helped her into a new life. Health to Miss Snyder is worth a great deal. Bba is an attractive young woman with intel lectual attainments and she occupies the position cf Treasurer of the Brook lyn Kast End Art Club. This position ttiarks her as a person of intellect, cul ture and refinement and it speaks highly of ths 'respect and trust her fellow woman have in her. Sbo writes! .

"In consulting with my druggist he advised McElree s Wine of Cardui and Thed- ford's B!ack-Dnghi, and so I took it and have every reason to thank him for a new life opened tip to me with restored health, ana it only took three months to core me." Ton may secure the same relief as Hiss Snyder, if yoa take Wine of Cardui as she took it. Thedford'i Black Draught is the companion medicine of Wine of Cardui and it is a liver and bowel regulator which assists greatly in effecting a cure. If you take these medicines according to directions, the relief and cure is simple. Some cases are cored quickly and others take longer because the disease has run longer. Remember how Miss Snyder took Wine of Cardui and has health. The same medicines are offered you to-day. WINE'of IT -T H H K I H TP A million suffering women have found relief in , Wine of Cardui.
