A SPECIFIC
FOR
La Grippe, for Golds, Coughs,
AND LUNG TROUBLES,
AVER'S PECTORAL
"Two years ago, I had the grippe,
and it left nie with a cough which gave
ane 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
me, but, in spite of his attendance, I got
no better. Finally, my husband, read
ing one day of a gentleman who had
bad the firippe 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
liave used the Pectoral for my children
and in my family, whenever we have
needed it, and have found it a specific
for colds, coughs, and lung troubles."

Speedily Cured by

I was a sufferer for eight years from that
most distressing of all diseases. Eczema, but
can now say truthfully that I am entirely
cured. I tried some of the best physicians
in the country, but they did me little good.
TliO' palms of my hands were covered, and
would become inflamed; little white blisters
at first would appear, then they would peel -olf,
leaving a red, smooth surface which wquld
burn like tire and itch ; well, there is no name
for it. On the inside of the upper part of
both my limbs, great red blotches not unlike
hives would appear, and as soon as I became
warm, the burning and itching would begin.
Night after night I would lie awake all night
and scratch, and almost go wild. I heard of '
Cuticoba remedies, got a box of Cuticura
(ointment), a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent
(blood purifier), and gave thein a thorough
trial, and after a few applications I noticed
the redness and inflammation disappear; be
fore I had used one box there tca not a tiff o
Eczema left. I can truthfully assert that S2.00
worth of Cuticura Remedies cured mo. Any
one I meet who has Eczema, I do not hesitate
a moment in recommending your remedies.

A Cordwood Trust.
-The low: price xot cordwood ' -in The
Dalles this winter has been one of the
marked conditions of the season's trade.
A rivalry among Boin of our Jeading
firms has put the price down to a figure
that makes it cheap to keep' warm..
Large quantities of cordwood have been
brought up the river and the great erp
ply coupled with the fact of the m"'d
weather we have been having, made the
wood s drag on the market. The beach
has been, and is yet, covered to a large
extent with wood. The cutters be
tween here and the Cascades- have not
enjoyed the cut war here, and are mur
muring because of decreased return for
their labor. They are thinking of imi
tating some of the big eastern concerns
and forming a trust and by means of it,
cause the price to raise. Here is what
the Stevenson Pioneer has to eay of tbf
project: "
We understand there is a movement
on foot among the cordwood men aloDg
toe river to form a combination for the
purpose of putting up the price of wood.
This is a step in the right direction, and
it seems to be the only way out of the
present difficulty. The present price is
so low that wood cutters can ecarcely
make their grub, and it is foolish for
men to wear their lives out at work at
which there is no possibility, even with
the greatest economy, of getting ahead
at all. When a' man works 'hard he
should get such compensation for his
labor that he can get something ahead
in case of sickness. If a man cannot get
such compensation be had better rustle
for another job. Therefore we say let
the cordwood men ali along the middle
river combine, and not sell a stick of
wood for less than living prices. They
have everything in' their own hands if
they will only take advantage of the
situation. - -
