If there is any one thing that needs to be purified, it is politics, so the re former says, and many agree thereto. But blood tells, and as a blood purifier and liver corrector Simmons Liver Iteg- lator is the best medicine. "I use it in preference to anv other." So wrote Mr. S. H. Hysell, of Middleport, Ohio. And Dr. D. S. Russell, of Farmville, Va., writes, ''It fulfills all you. promise for it." Mr. Marsh, who lives beyond Cheno welh creek, was in town this morning and stated that School District No. 9 would probably not make any levy this year. The directors think that a six or seven months' school may be main tained without any taxation. This district can Salter itself upon its good condition, and in this day of increased taxes finds itself in a rather solitary position.

Mr. James Wilson and family returned The Dalles Saturday after an absence over a year, spent at Hilo, in the Sandwich Islands. They left Hilo last October on a sailing vessel bound for San Francisco, where they remained some time. Mr. Wilson was bookkeeper for his brother's stage line on the Isl ands, and had good opportunities for observation. The thermometer ranges rt ' - or J ii J ! ii um ou to ou uegrces me year uruuuu, and tbe heat at times is oppressive. Mr. W'lson saya that money is made easier in the Islands than it is here, but there are many drawbacks to pleasant living. He was on an island situated about 250 miles from Honolulu, and never visited the latter place. Mr. Wilson save he met John Marlin in San I Francisco, and that Mr. Marlin sailed' for Honolulu on New Year's day. It is Mr. Wilson's intention to remain here about a month, at the end of which time it 'is possible he may return to Hilo. He expresses himself as opposed to an nexing the Islands to the United States, as be does not consider them .worth annexation. Sauday Observance. Yesterday was a beautiful day and caused many people to spend a portion of tbe afternoon upon the streets enjoy ing a mild winter day. The air was cool enough to be bracing, but not uncom fortable and tbe day resembled October weather more than that of January. The attendance at the different church services was reported large. At the Methodist church Rev. J. H. Wood preached a fine sermon to a large audi ence upon the theme, "Charity or Love." Tho3e who heard Mr. Wood are all of the opinion that his sermon yes terday morning was the best he has preached in The Dalles. Mr. Wood is an earnest speaker and bis words carry wi igbt with his hearers. " The attendance at the Congregational church was. very good, the sermon ex cellent and the singing pleasing. Mr. Curtis preached an impressive sermon upon church organization and life as ne cessary to carrying on the work of spirituality. The singing of the anthem "Rock of Ages" by the choir was espe cially fine. Rev. Mr. Goss' sermon, at St. Paul's church yesterday, was oa the manifes tation of Jesus to bis parents at Jeru salem, and tLo text Tras taken from the gospel of St. Luke ii :44-45, "But they, supposing him to have been in the com pany, went a day's journey . and ' when they found him not, they turo-i back agaia to Jerusalem, seeking him." The' rector re.'erred to the vari ous manifestations of Christ during his li'e up to the one from tbe crds ; also spoke of God'a biding himself, but ever near and ready to manifest himself, if sought. Mr. Goss told where God could be found in this house, the church, and bow to find him throngh the sac raments of his church on earth. Mr. Goss left last night for his home, ex pecting to return for the first two Sun days of February. Joint Installation. Fraternity hall was the scene of some interesting exercises Saturday evening.

When persons are weak and languid from sickness or overwork, feel debiliit ated and depressed, it is an indication that the blood is out of order, ai.d they need help to throw off the miserable feeling?

It re stores lost strength, gives vigor to circu lation, promotes good appetite and a flow of cheerful spirits. Snipes-Kiners-ly Drug Co. BOKN. In this city, Monday, Jan. 13th, te the wife of N.
