CONCERNING DOCTORS.
Borne Idle Thoughts About a Disagree
able Profession.
Doctors are a queer lot anyhow.
They have a way about them different
from the ways of other men, in fact on
some occasions "ways not of this world."
As a gmeral proposition they are a good
lot of fellows, socially at least, and you
can't help liking them. In good health,
hnmanity is disposed to look npon them
as humbugs of greater or less degree,
and to duubt their ability to diagnose
diseases and tell a fellow what ails his
diaphragm by looking at his tongue, or
pressing a finger on his pulse, but in
sickness this is changed. The doctor
whom you have been accustomed to
meeting in a social way becomes another
person. Ue is an autocrat whose will is
law and whose law is hard, and yet you
are triad to see him, and feel better for
bis kindly presence.
True, the first thing he does is to find
out what you like to eat and make you
stop eating it ; . what . you like to drink
and put upon it his mighty taboo. Do
you smoke? Smoking is the worst
thing you can possibly do. Cigars are
baniched, and the faithful old pipe,
Strom; in its friendship, is forbidden the
house on pain of death. Do you like
vegetables? Vegetable food distends
the stomach, produces cholera morbus,
inflames the stomach and is the forerun
ner of appendicitis and a hundred other
sew fashioned diseases. Do you like
meat ? Meat possesses too much carbon
and not enough starch ; your system has
too much iron, you mast take at once to
a vegetable diet. Can you swallow pills?
No? Then you must take your medi
cine in the shape of a bolus as big as a
horse chestnut and as bitter as quassia
chips can make it. If pills are your
favorite feed in sickness, they must be
powdered so that you get the full benefit
of the doubly distilled and infinitely
concentrated nastiness. If you want to
get out doors and get a breath of air and
a glimpse of sunshine, you must lie on
your back and gaza at the ceiling. It
your bed is a source of comfort and rest,
you must get up and leave it.
And so through the long list, these
mild-eyed, smooth-voiced knights prac
tice their negative acts upon you, and
yet sickness would be terrible without
them, and death almost impossible.
Yet suffering humanity gets even on
them, for the sick man, who is on to his
job manages to need their services at the
witching hour of 2 a. m., on the nastiest
night of the year, demands their imme
diate attention just when dinner is ready
and some genial friend is on hand to
share it, and stands them off for services
rendered with a calm and imperturbable
spirit, that approaches to the dignity of
an art. Nobody wants a doctor, except
when their running gears get out of fix,
but when they do want him, like the
fellow in Texas wanted the six-shooter,
"they want him awful bad."
The merchant who tells you be has
something else as good as Hoe Cake soap
ia a good man to keep away from. a2-Sm

The Wheat Trartr.
Wheat is arriving in .straggling lots,
the largest receipts being from Eastern
Oregon". ' Trade continues inactive.
Most of the farmers are too busy thresh
ing and securing crops to pay iiiiK'h at
tention to selling. Some l.nuiii: to
stations is going on, but to date the
amount delivered at interior warehouses
Is small. The past week has been a
most exciting one in the wheat trade,
and all speculative centers throughout
Europe and America were shaken up.
The great boom in Eastern markets was
reflected to a certain degree in our own
interior markets, and eharp advances
were telegraphed from the Valley and
east bi the Cascades. Speculators be
come imbued with the idea that wheat
must be obtained at almost any coet,
and a sharp competition between buyers
carried prices above the real shipping
value. A large amount of Walla Walla
wheat is said to have been secured on
a basis of 85c per bushel here, which
is probably 6c above its value in the
market today. In the Valley, the ex-
tement was not so pronounced, and
urchaees were made on a safer basis
an in Eastern Oregon and Washing
ton. .Many farmers took advantage of
the boom to part with at least a portion
of their holdings, and have done exceed
ingly well ; while many others held out
for lc to 2c higher, and have been left
out of the short boom. Today's nearest
export values, based on English selling
prices and freight rates, are 78c for
Walla Walla, 82c for bluestem, and 82c
for Valley, per bushel. Portland Com

What use is therein eating when food
does you no good in fact, when it does
you mora harm than good, for such is
the case if it is not digested?
If you have a loathing for food there
is no use of forcing it down, tor it will
not be digested. You must restore the
digestive organs to their natural strength
and cause the food to be digested, when
an appetite will come, and with it a re
lish for food.
The tired, languid feeling will give
place to vigor and energy ; then you will
put flesh on your bones and become
strong. The Shaker Digestive Cordial
as made by the Mount Lebanon Shakers
contains food already digested and is a
digester of foods as well. Its action is
prompt and its effects permanent.
Doctors prescribe Laxol because it
has all the virtues of Castor Oil and is
