City School Superintendent Pratt, of Multnomah county, Bays the Orego nian, has received a copy of a book en titled "Readings from the Bible; Se lected for Schools, and to Be Read in Unison." The book, which contains less than 200 pages, is published under the supervision of the Chicago Woman's Ecclesiastical Union, and the object of it is to place before the pupils in the public schools of the United States, in which the Bible is not allowed, some of the most beautiful passages from that book. The selections were made by an editorial committee, consisting of W. J. Onahan, .1. H. Burrows and C. C. Bon ney, one a Catholic, one a Hebrew and one a Protestant. The selections appear in no regular order, those from the Old iwu new leeiamenc oeing mixed indis criminately. As may be supposed, from the composition of the committee, there is nothing in the book which is objectionable to the religion or morals of any one. Such things as the etory about Cain going east to the land of Nod and getting a wife, the'story about Lot'a wife being changed into a pillar of salt, the hietory of the witch of Endor, the drowning of Pharoah'e host in the Red eea, the account of the flood, the pro phesies of Daniel, and the second chap ter of Obadiab, in regard to the propri ety and truthfulness. of which the best and wisest of men have differed, aria omitted from the book, which ia com posed of the most beautiful passages from the poetical, historical, and other books of the Scriptures. The Vlrns Received. Frank B. Clopton, of Pendleton, has received a box of the virus which baa been used in experimenting with ground squirrels in Chicago. The virus comes in glass tubes, and minute directions have also been received by Mr. Clopton. He has virus enough for operating on five acres, and he will at once commence experiments In the fields on his ranch below Pendleton. ' Considerable interest has been elicited, and Mr. Clopton's in vestigations will be watched by every one. The virus will be placed on dry bread, and the bread placed in the squirrel runs. It is expected tbat the sanirrels will at once begin to eat it, and the disease spread from the first. The rapidity with which the disease spreads will determine the value of the virus as an exterminator of squirrels. Independent Candidate tor Sheriff. I hereby announce myself an inde pendent free silver candidate for the office of sheriff of Wasco county, Ore gon, to be voted for at the geueral elec tion to be held on June 1, 1896. John M. Roth. The DUcorerj saved His Life. , Mr. G. Caillouttee, Druggist, Bearers ville, 111. says: "To Dr. King's New Discovery I owe my life. Was taken with La Grippe and tried all the physi cians for miles about, but of no avail and was given up and told I could not live. Having Dr. King's New Discovery in my store I sent for a bottle and began its use and from the first dose began to get better, and after using three bottles was up and about again. It is worth its weight in gold. We won't keep store or house without it." Get a free trial at Blakeley & Houghton's Drug Store. 2 In the fall of 1893 a son. of Mr. T. A.
