feminine sex. Yet such is the fact The
first women curators were cousddered
to be the pioneers of a new trade for
their sex, as indeed they were. But ly
their xkill nud tact they won the way
Xor all their sisters. Now the swiftest
typewriters iu the world are acknowl
edged to be women. It is agreeable to
our national pride to know' they are
American women also. Some of the
best to be fouud auywhere are in the
government departments at Washing

the flames and pull the wire with Its
burning coating away from the wall.

Yon Never Know the Moment When
Thit Information May Prove of
Infinite Value.
It i worth considerable to any citi
en of Astoria to know how to be cured
of painfnl, annoying and itching piles.
Know then that Doan's Ointment is a
positive remedy for all itchiness of the
skin, .for piles, eczema, etc. One appli
cation relieves and soothes. Read this
testimony of its merit:
R. B. Long, harness maker, employed
with John Clark t Son, 104 Front street,
Portland, who resides at 348 Second St.,
same city, says:
"Early last summer I broke out all
over my body with eczema, tetter or itch
I did not know juct what it was nor
what caused its appearance, but 1 do
know that the torture I endured wa
something fierce. I was very much al
armed about it; was anxious to know
what it was and what caused it. I
thought the best thing to do was to go
to a doctor far treatment. I did so, and
was treated by different ones, but they
failed to do me any good. When I be
came the least bit overheated I just
clawed the skin ofT rne. Any one who
has never had anything of the kind
knows nothing a't all about it. I was
in lad shape when I noticed an adver
tisement in our paper about Doan's oint
ment being a sure cure for such afflic
tions. It proved to be all that is claim
ed for it. J-ss than two boxes made a
complete cure in my case. About this
time my younger brother was taken with
the. same affliction. A box and a half
of Doan's Ointment cured him. I know
what I am talking about when I say
that Doan's Ointment is one remedy
which can be depended upon."
