Motor Fails Them u.
Yesterday morning a party of yOtirtg
gentlemen of this city undertook to
io a pleasant bit of excursioning on
their own nook, and left for the bar
and the open ca in a handsome motor
boat belonging to one of the quin
tette that manner her, with the idea
of meeting the American battleships
and seeing them from their own
especial 1 vantage. When the boat
reached the crest of the bar the gas
engine subsided with its usual sud
denness and utter inappropriatencss,
and left the plucky group not exactly
"high and dry" but in plain peril of
becoming low and voct. A couple of
fishing boats nearby went to their as
sistance and tried to tow them back
into safe waters, and did all tbey could
to accomplish the service; but it
took the prompt and powerful aid of
theCape Disappointment life savers
to remedy the situation, and the dar
ing voyage were hauled in under the
lea of Fort Canby, where they repair
ed the engine. The party consisted of
Messrs. J.. Ganty, S. S. Snell, A. V.

ECZEMA NOW CURABLE.
All Itching Skin Diseases Which Are
Not Hereditary Instantly Relieved
by Oil of Wintergreen.
Can Eczema be cured? ' . '
Some physicians say "Yes."
Some say "No."
The real question is, "What is
meant by Eczema?" ,If you mean
those scaly eruptions, those diseases
which make their first appearance,
not at birth, but years afterward, and
perhaps not until middle age then
there can no longer be any question
that these forms of Eczema are cur
able.
Simple vegetable oil of wintergreen,
mixed with other vegetables ingred
ients, will kill the germs that infest
the skin. Apply this prescription to
the skin, and instantly that awful itch
is gone. The very moment the liquid
is applied, that agonizing, tantalizing
itch disappears, and continued appli
cations of this external remedy soon
cure' the disease.
We carry in . stock this , oil of
wintergreen properly compounded in
to D. D. D. Prescriotion. While we
are not sure that it' will cure all those
cases of skin trouble which are in
herited, we positively know that this
D. D. D. Prescription, whenever
rightly used, will cure every last case
of genuine Eczema or other skin
trouble, which did not exist at birth.
We know this. . Anyway, your
self, will know that D. D. D. Pre
scription instantly takes away the
itch the moment it is, applied to the
skin. Charles Rogers & Son.
Stop that itch today instant
ly. Just call at our store and try

AMERICAN BATTLESHIPS
(Continued from page 4)
"About every third day they would
present an article for my acceptance
which would look, on the face of it,
perfectly simple", fair and above-board.
But the minute you began to cross-
question it, and penetrate, and go
back' to your room and let it soak in,
and then compare it with treaty regu
lations you would find that in some
obscure, but yet patent way the
United States was going to get the
little end of the stick. I do believe
they thought we were easy. I grew
10 years older there in three months.
The words were simple and free, but
I did not neglect to observe that even
then, at a distance of two years and
10,000 miles from the scene of the al
luring enticement, the Admiral carried
on his working deck, which held no
more man a dozen volumes, a copy
of "Wheaton's Maritime Law" and
another of "Law and Commerce."
Nor could one forget his reputation as
one of the first scholars in the serv
ice, nor neglect the well-groomed ap
pearance of the studous, alert, ener
gtic mind. :
Admiral Sperry has the gracious and
attractive personality of a diplomat;
his manner is frank, simple and demo
cratic, yet is flavored with extreme
culture and weighted with delightful
reserve. He has risen slowly, care
fully, through neither the heights of
fame nor the depressions of obscurity,
through every grade of the service,
until he is inclined to leave details to
others and to permit the tide of cir
cumstance and power to lead him on
its mellow way, exemplar of the fin
ished and subtle efficiency of a later
day.
"You have been on the Pacific
coast before?"
"Never, except in passing hurriedly
through San FrancTsco on my way
to command in China. I am not what
we call in the service a 'Sloper.' That
is, I have never served on the Pacific
station. For that reason I am looking
forward all the more keenly to the
celebrated hospitality of California.
"Will you have any leave before
starting on the great cruise?"
"What for? I will get plenty of
leave when I retire, in September,
1909. In fact, I don't know what I
will do with' myself then. Mrs.
Sperry says I cannot stiy around the
house, because I don't know how to
run a sewing machine."

A HARD STRUGGLE
Many a Astorian Citizen Finds the
Struggle Hard.
With a back constantly aching,
With distressing urinary disorders,
Daily existence is but a struggle.
No need to keep it up.
Doan's Kidney Pills will cure you.
Theodore Huerth, living on Park
Place, about two miles from Oregon
City, Ore., says:.
"I found Doan's Kidney Pills do
just what is claimed for them. For
a long time I suffered from a lame
ness and aching over the kidneys and
an irregularity of the action of the
kidneys. The trouble was not severe
enough to lay me up but was very an
noying and made it, difficult without
my back paining me. I was induced
to try Doan's Kidney Pills from the
recommendation of a friend, and pro
cured a box. Their use absolutely re
moved the (rouble with the kidneys,
strength ened my back and in every
way proved your remedy to be worthy
of the greatest confidence.

BRIGHT PROSPECTS.
.NEW NEW, May 20. - Frank
Trumbull, president of the Colorado
& Southern Railway Company, who
has returned from a five weeks' trip
through the west and southwest is
optimistic over the prospects of the
railroads particularly in Texas. .
Mr. Trumbull said that generally
speaking in the lines in the west ran
through agricultural districts were
doing'well and in some cases local
business was actually showing in
creases over last year. He remarked,
however, that this gain was offset and
possibly would be'for sgme time by
losses on manufactured products.
