which will take place next Thursday
evening. This will probably be the last

K. of P. hall.
Considering the open spring that we
have enjoyed in Eastern Oregon, one is
likely to think that grain is not so far
advanced aa it might be. This is due
a great deal to the cold nights which we
have had all spring. A warmer change
eeems to be at band, and in a short time
the crops, which look so backwaid nt
preeent, will have a different appear
ance. At present the roads are dustier in'
this county than they haveevei been Lb
May. This is due not so much to the
lack of rain as to the fact that the farm
ers throughout the county were vpry
busy in the early part of the spring And
thev did not set to work on all the roads
until it was too late in the season, f nd
since they have finished there has liot
been enouzh moisture to settle do
the highway.
A war should be waged in The Dallas

blown from adjoining lots can take root.
The only way to get rid of them Is for
each one owning property to begin the
work of extermination at once. Other
wise they will be as much of a nuisance
as the thistle.

V In a private letter received by her" par-
ente.Mrs. Fred Wilson speaks of their in

the excitement which prevails in Phoenix

A TRAVELING MAN'.
Give Home Valuable IllnU ItogartUaa;
the Vara of (ho Health Wlillo
Travillng.
, i
Mr. R. W. Winuhordon, a commercial
traveler from Birmingham, whoso busi
ness keeps him almost constantly on the
road, relates in the Sunday News the
dangers to health resulting from con
stant change of residence and tho way
he overcame tho usual Injurious effect?.
He snys: "One thing peopl i trnVol
ing cannot very well avoid I; the con
stant change in weather and food ; tho
Btomach never has nn opportunity to he
come accustomed to anything, and in a
few years or much sooner the average
traveling man becomes u hopoless dys
peptic. 'For several years I suffered more or
less from indigestion, sour stomach,
headaches, distaste for food, often no
appetite, gas on the stomach and tliu
usual unpleasant effects of Imperfect di
gestion.
"Nearly every traveling man lias his
favorite remedy for different troubles
and I tried all of them ' with indifferent
results. Finally on th? train between
Pittsburg and Philadelphia one day, f
overheard a conversation between two
ladies, one of whom, had suffered severe
ly from indigestion and stated she bad
been completely cured by n remedy
which ehe called Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets ; I remembered the conversation
because it directly interested me; and
at the next town I inquired at the first
drug store and bought a package for
fifty cents, and from that day to this I
have never been without them. They
are pleasant tasting tablets, not a secret
patent medicine but composed of vege
table eseences, pure pepsin, fruit salts
and Golden Seal ; being in tablet form
they neve- lose their good qualities like
a liquid medicine would, but are always
fresh and Tcady for use.
"I carry a box in my pocket continual'
ly, and whenever I see any symptoms of
indigestion I take one, also one after
each meal, and for n year and a hnit I
have not lost a day by reason of poor
health and can eat anything and relish
what I eat; my digestion is absolutely
perfect as far as I can judge from my
feelings, and although there may be
other stomach medicines just as good as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, I do not
know what they are. Certainly for
people who travel they are far ahead of
any liquid medicine, as they are so con
venient they can be carried in the Docket
and used whenever needed.
"I believe they nre sold by all druggists
at 50 cents, and believe anyone who will
try them will agree witii me that for in
digestion and stomach tronb'e Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are untqualed."
MethotlUt Reception Last Night.
Last evening at the Methodist church
a most pleasant reception was given to
those who have entered into the fellow
ship of the church within the present
conference year, or since August last.
The church was tastily decorated in a
home-like manner, and among the
draperies might be seen the stars and
stripes. The basement was well filled
with one of the most congenial assem
blies imaginable, among which were
fifty-three persons who might consider
themselves recipients, having joined the
church within the past nine months.
A program had been prepared, and
of the numbers was a solo by Mis?
Myrtle Michell and a mandolin and

given by Mr. L. Line on behalf of the
church, the response to which was made
by Mr. N. Whealdon in n ninnncr which
delighted all and : nisei I everyone to
feel a thrill of fellowship.
Tho latent bulletin in regard to the
war and the American successes had
bern placed upon the blackboard, and
after lunch had been served and the au
dience had sung "America," the pastor
gave an address on the Euhject which is
now occupying our minds, the war. Mr.
Wood, among other things, said all
should he thankful for our success, and
ever look for guidance to the great Gen
eral of the universe.
So enjoyable whs the evening that
none present can fail to remember it
with pleasure.
A Star t'erformanee.
A ialrly good house greeted Tim Mur
phy last night, and from the time the
curtain rose for the first act until the
concluding scene the audience was spell
bound with delight. Mr, Murphy is
indeed a clever impersonator, as he
plainly showed in "Old Innocence," as
well as "Sir Henry Hypnotized." In
the latter, whi.ih was a series of charac.
ter sketches, he had more scope to show
himself the thorough actor, able to cope
with any character. His facial expres
sion can't be beat, and tho manner in
which he can change in an instant is
wonderful.
His support is composed of artists,
not a poor actor among the in, and if
they ever plav a return engagement, the
tfouse will bo crowded with those who
failed to attend lastmght,as well as those
who heard -them in "Old Innocence.

The attention ot the Christian En
deavo'rers of the World is being directed
to Nashville as it was a year ago to San
Francisco, and one of the greatest meet
ings in tho history of this great move
ment is' assured. Oregon endeavorers
are looking especially toward Roseburg
at this time, where their annual state
convention will he held May 12th to
15th. Preparations nre now being made
in that lively burg for the reception and
care of ull the delegates who may find
it possible to attend. Such a reception
is promised as has never been attempted
by any entertaining city in Oregon. The
program as outlined is one of the best
they have ever been able to offer, and as
no limit is placed on the number who
may attend, a successful meetiug is al
ready assured.
