"My father has for years been troubled with diarrhoea, and tried ev ery means possible to effect a cure, without avail," writes John H. Zir- kle of Philippi, W. Va. He saw Chamberlain's Cholic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy advertised in the Philippi Republican and decided to try it. The result is one bottle cur ed him and he has not suffered with the disease for eighteen months. Be fore taking this remedy he was a con stant sufferer. He is now sound and well, and although sixty years old, can do as much work as a young man. Sold by Frank Hart and leading druggists. A Faithful Friend. " I have used Chamberlain's colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy since it was first introduced to the public in 1872, and have never found one in stance where a cure was not speedily effected by, its use. I have been a commercial traveler for eighteen years, and never start out on a trip without this, my faithful friend," says H. S. Nichols of Oakland, Ind. Ter. When a man has used a remedy for thirty-five years he knows its value and is competent to speak of it. For sale by Frank Hart, druggist. We manufacture them right here in Astoria at Lowest Prices.

"I wish I could remember who told It Henry, can you remem ber? Was it Mr. Sellersr "No," said Blake stiffly; "It wasn't Sellers." ."I wonder If It could have been Mr. Windsor?" "No," repeated Blake; "it wasn't Windsor." Before Mr. Blake bad a chance to ex press an affirmative or negative opin ion of that hazard as to the source of the Walpole anecdote Mr. Barton came In. Mrs. Blake, belug by thut time sure of herself, tried on him her rec ipe for winning universal affection. "Oh, Mr. Barton," she said, "I am very glad to see you. I have hardly stopped laughing since I saw you the last time." Mr. Barton, a cadaverous man with solemn eyes, tooked rather foolish. "Indeed?" he said. "May I ask what about?" Over that funny story you told about Horace Walpole," said Mrs. Blake. "M-m-m-noraee Walpole?" stam mered Mr. Bartou.- "I am afraid. you must have got me mixed up with some body else. I don't knowthe first thing about Horace Walpole, and If I did know anything fuuny about him I couldn't tell it To tell a funny story la beyond my powers. Even If It was funny to start with It wouldn't be by the time I got through with it." Mrs. Blake's spirits were somewhat dashed by her fiasco in finding an owner for the Walpole story, but she bore up courageously, and later when Mr. Markhnm came in she drew him out of earshot of Mr. Barton and dilat ed on the pleasure his story of Horace Walpole had given her. Mr. Markhara was not cast in the funeral mold that gave to Mr. Barton his grave aspect but he protested himself totally Inca pable of telling a funny story about Horace Walpole or anything else. Presently Mrs. Blake left the room to prepare the sandwiches. Mr. Blnke followed her. "For the love of the Lord," he said, "don't mnke a fool of yourself again by trying to get some other Idiot lu there to father that Walpole story. . 1 told you that yarn myself." Mrs.' Blnke stood still, with cnrvln? knife poised In 11 ir. . "You?" she said incredulously. "And it was so clever too." Now York Times.
