, A SPECIFIC FOR La Grippe, for Golds, Goughs AND LUNG TROUBLES, AVER'S CHERRY PECTORAL " 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 rcedicine as often as he found the things I had taken were not helping V me, but, 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 have 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." Emily "Wood, North St., Elkton, Md.

Miller, a very progressive citizen of The Dalles, the publisher of a musical journal called "Harmony," and a thorough, musician, has inaugurated and is' pushing a most praiseworthy scheme which haq operated in the East with amazing success, and now wantB the Pacific coast to share or rather dupli cate that succees. It is for the forma tion of a "Northwestern Band Associa tion," comprising the states of Oregon and Washington, that is a congress of bands of the two etates that shall meet annually in eome city, hold a five days session and Lave a grand musical tourna ment. There is to ,be no rivalry, no .-chance for hard feelings, but on the con trary, such a grand good time, with mu- veical round-ups, excursions and social .intercourse as will promote the friend liest feeling and good fellowship between communities it is poeeible to mature. , Circulars have just been sent to var ious bands by Mr. Miller throughout the two states, and letters of acceptance - -have come from Antelope and Corvallis. Colfax and Dayton, Wash., . will also probably be here, as they have already expressed their hearty co-operation. Salem bas a very fine band which it is thought will be present. The first of the five days' session will be one of re ception, The Dalles band meeting each in a glad overture of welcome, which will ; be responded to by the visiting bands. The second day will be a grand parade of all the bands, the lead band playing a march, its last note to be taken np by the first note of the band following, and so on through the line without losing a beat.'. The third day, the bands will unite, all playing the same selection. As there will be anyway ten bands at a safe estimate, or about 125 musicians, the volume of sound will be something grand, the like of which has never been heard in the West. .Concerts will also be given in the opera house. It is pro poed that thia meeting will be held some time n September, and Mr. Miller is working hard and will continue to work to perfect all the details. It is the plan for the vifiting bands to pay' their own expenses of coming and going, and the city to pay their expenses while here. There is no doubt it will attract many hundred visitors to the city, and is really the most alluring class of tour naments that could be imagined. A TToaltliy Railroad Fireman. A young- man in blue overalls and a greasy cap and jacket is now employed as fireman on the Long Island railroad. ne is George D. Pratt, the son of the late Charles Pratt, themulti-niil'ionairC Standard Oil prince. Young Pratt was graduated from Amherst college with honors in 1893. ' As one of the repre sentatives of his father's estate, who is the second larsrest stockholder of the lions' Island Raj 1 road company, he pro poses to learn the railroad business throujrh 'every grade, from laborer up. He started in the car shops at Morris Park, find after service at the bench, the forge and in the assembling-room, he learned how to use tools, how every part of a locomotive is made, and how the whole is put together. After hav ing- served the requisite apprenticeship in that department, he jumped into the locomotive cab and commenced shov eling coal in the capacity of a fireman. Prisoner's Retorts. Prisoners have a fair proportion of "happy answers" credited to them. Of these, perhaps, the "best known are those of the man who, wher. asked if he pleaded "guilty or not guilty," re plied that he couldn't say until he had heard the evidence; and the naive re sponse of the prisoner to the usual question before sentence: "Have you anything to say, prisoner, before sen tence is pronounced upon you?" "It's very , kind of your honor, and if it's quite agreeable to the court I should like to say 'good evening-.' " Leprosy in Iceland. There are lepers in Iceland about 2G0 in all. Now an enthusiastic" priest has determined to follow heroic Father Damien's example to devote himself wholly to the care of the unfortunates. Already he has raised 10,000 francs and is promised enough more to assure the early erection of a comfortable hospital. ' ' Ho? to Cure It heumatUm. Akago, Coos Co., Oregon, Nov. 10, 1893.
