Beware of Frequent Colds. A succession of colds or "a pro tracted cold is almost certain to end in chronic catarrh, from which few persons ever wholly recover. Give every cold the attention it deserves and you may avoid this disagreeable disease. How can you cure a cold? Why not try . Chamberlain's Cough Remedy? It is highly recommend ed. Mrs. M. White, of Butler, Tenn., says: "Several years " ago I was bothered with my throat and lungs. Someone told me of , Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I began using it and it relieved me at once. Now my throat and lungs are sound and well." For sale by Frank Hart and leading druggists.

The Standard Oil Company will soon become used to being fined, and the fines are of a sort not to be "sneezed at"; nor is the Standard sneezing at them; it is fighting them bitterly, cleverly, exhaustively, as money and wonderful talent can do it When the law is exhausted and the fines have to be paid, there may be some sneezing wrought by the chill incident to the adverse judg ments and, the letting go of millions in good hard cash. The Standard is entitled to justice, even if it has no friends. You want the best money can buy in food, clothing, home comforts, pleasures, etc, why not in education?

THE FALL OF CASTRO. Ex-President Castro, of Venezuela, will never forget the Christmas of 1908. But he has made it what it is and has none to thank for his down fall save himself and his terrible lust of gold and power; he has plenty of the former, but he is shorn of the last vestige of the latter and is ex-patriat. to boot, the last civic extremity to which man may fall. In many ways his is a marvelous record of personal achievement, coming up as he did from the provincial farm through the tortuous and devious ways of warfare, politics, and civic crime to the head of what might have been a model Re public had his ambitions not stopped short at the lure of gold and the sel fish limitations of an usurped power, than which nothing can more quickly negative a lofty purpose or smother an honest ambition. We do not know that he ever had either; but whether he did or not, his day is run and hs is discountenanced and undone before the whole world, as he should have been. Venezuela is to be congratulat ed upon the collapse of this man. ttie following dispatch was sent from this city yesterday and speaks for itself in terms that will be under stood ana appreciated ny an with a I definite interest in these live matters: "Astoria, Or, Dec. 4, 1908.
