"Two years ago, I had the grippe,
and it left me with a cough which gave
me no rest night or day. My family
physician prescribed for me, changing
the medicine as often as he found the
things I had taken were not helping
.. . ... f;
me, hut, in spite of his attendance, I got
no better. Finally, my husband, read
ing one day of a gentleman who had
had the grippe and was cured by taking
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, procured, for
me, a bottle of this medicine, and before
I had taken half of it, I was cured. I
nave nsed the Pectoral for my children
and In my family, whenever we have
needed it, and have found it a specifio
for colds, coughs, and lung troubles."

At the Mathodist Church. Last Tflg-ht.
Prof. N. N. Riddell's lecture in the
M. E. church last night-on "Heredity
and Pre-natal Culture," drew a crowded
house. The professor is one of the
pioneers on the American platform in
handling this theme before mixed
audiences and is doing untold good to
humanity: by popularizing a subject on
which knowledge is of such vital impor
tance to the welfare of the race.
" The speaker in opening dwelt on the
great importance of men of science turn
ing their attention to the study of hered
ity as applied to man. It is the opinion
of reformers and men who have studied
the needs of suffering humanity that we
will never be able to deal with crime
and insanity till we turn our attention
to the study of those laws that tend to
make man better born. Every person is
what they are from two causes: first,
from inherent tendencies, and second,
from education and force of environ
ments. These are both of vital impor
tance to the welfare of the individual,
and neither can ever take the place of
the other. To be well born is to receive
the greatest gift within the power of
man. ' Great men are born so or they
never become great.
A scientific explanation was given of
the gradual nnfoldroent of. the child's
brain from a single cell np to the com
plete and complex brain. The active,
strong characteristics of the parents became-
the native marked traits in the
child's character.' This law has received
careful attention by many with results
most satisfactory and have given us
poets, musicians and. orators who were
born so. If men would only give more
attention to these things, we would not
have eo many children that are mere
ciphers with the rims rubbed out.
Many apt illustrations were cited show
ing why people were what they were.
The mother of Napoleon had a strong
love for battle and went into the thickest
of the fray and most bloody conflicts
and before Napoleon was 10 years old he
was found on the battle field. Italian
beauties nearly all conform to the one
ideal type, the Madonna, a likeness of
which occupies the walls of nearly every
home in Italy, has made a vivid impres
sion on the brain of the mothers of this
fair land, with the result as we know on
the offspring. The time will yet come,
the speaker thought, when none will be
allowed to marry until they are educated
on the laws of heredity, nor will any be
granted this privilege who have criminal
or idiotic tendencies.
Inclosing the Epeaker urged the im
portance of a life of social purity as
equally binding upon man as woman
The young man can go astray, sow bis
wild oats and when he has disgraced
everything that is pure and holy in his
manhood and then repent and society
will give him its sweetest smile. If
woman is treated with severity when
she has made- a mistake, then let her
brother suffer a like condemnation. If
two sinners have gone astray let them
suffer a like condemnation at the hands
of society, as they must at the judgment
bar of God, until the kind hand of mercy
shall reclaim them both.
Tonight the professor will lecture on
"Love, CourtBhip and Marriage," and
close his address with a double wedding.
For Home-Seekers,
An effort is being made to reclaim
some of the arid lands between Celilo
and Umatilla. A large tract of fine
laud has been opened up by the Bailey
Ditch Company, which has about nine
miles of ditch completed, and water
covering about 2000 or 3000 acres. They
will rent these tracts to persons who
wish them, and furnish plenty of water
for one half of the produce raised. The
lands are on the Columbia river, a few
miles above Coyote station, and the paBt
season the company has cultivated about
100 acres, and has raised some of the
finest garden truck that ever grew in
this section of the country ; and for
fruit-raisers the climate and soil cannot
be excelled. Transportation and freight
rates to all desirable points for market
are reasonable and fair. Can ship to
the Sonnd over the Northern, or into
Montana over the Great Northern, or
Spokane over the O. R. & NY
The outcome of the enterprise will be
watched with a great deal of interest
Further particulars can be had by ad
dressing the Bailey Ditch Company at
Umatilla, or at 508, East Oak street,
