"Jack" Lee a typical sheepherder, who has been a ft L N v 4&BSeXIEIY VAn X J Makes the food more delicious and wholesome WOYAL BAKIWO POWPEB CO., HEW VOBK. ' trusty sbepherder over Klickitat flocks r nearly twenty years arrived ia Golden- dale last evening from the Horse Heaven ranges. The veteran sheep herder says there will Dot be a wether for sale this year from Klickitat flocks, east of Bock creek. He says that the buyers gathered in all the marketable wethers in that section last fall. He says sheep went through the winter in good shape, but the feeding period was longer than he ever knew in Klickitat. The 2000 head under his care were given daily about two tons of rye bay with a half-ton of barley. The older sheep were given the most attention as to the grain feed. And it was only up to last week he killed on an average of one coyote a day. Further he says it is one of the most aggravating scenes he ever witnessed to see a number of coyotes skulking about watching a band of starving horses, and the inBtant one would get down and could not get np, a coyote would quickly have the helplees animal's blood flowing from the jugular vein, and in a few hours the dead animal wonld be utterly devoured. The. old herder has great '-feeling for the poor, starving horses, and says he dispatched a number of the devils that were pursu ing the horses. La Grippe Successfully Treated. "I have just recovered from the sec ond attack of La Grippe this year," Bays Mr. Jas. A. Jones, publishei of the Leader, Mexia, Texas. "In the latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy, and I think with considerable suc cess, only being in bed a little over two days against ten days for the former at tack. The second attack I am satisfied would have been equally as bad as the first but for the use of this emedy as 1 had to go to bed in about six hours after being 'struck' with it, while in the first case I was able to attend to business about two days before getting 'down.'

A certain nervoua tension and uneasy restlessness, especially during the evening, is noticeable in the vicinity of Central Park, where they con gregate and talk politics. The police do not allow- groups to assemble, and are dispersing fbem. Another Gomez mani festation has been planned for this afternoon, and it is said that the Cuban officers will organize a manifestation in favor of the Cuban .military assembly, which, if it takes place, will probably lead to a clash between the opposing factions. In fact, some people declare such a conflict cannot be avoided. General Gomez conferred with General Brooke from about noon today. The Junta Patriotica dissolved, pass ing resolutions of adherence to Gomez. Bow to Prarent Pneumonia. You are perhaps aware that pneu monia always resulta from a cold or from an attack of La Grippe. DuriDg the epidemic of La Grippe a few years ago when bo many cases resulted in pneu monia, it was observed that the attack was never followed by that disease when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was used. It counteracts any tendency of a cold or La Grippa to result in that dangerous disease. It is the best remedy in the world for bad colds and La Grippe. Every bottle warranted.

Heart troubles, at least among the Americans, are certainly increasing, and while this may be largely due to the ex citement and worry of American busi ness life, it is more often the result of weak stomachs, of poor digestion. - Real organic disease is incurable; but not one case in a hundred of heart trouble is organic. The close relation between heart trouble and poor digestion' is because both organs are controlled by the same g-eat nerves, the Sympathetic and Pneu m agastric. In another way, also the heart is ef fected by the form of poor digestion, which causes gas fermentation from half digested food. There is a feeling of oppression and heaviness in the chest C tused by. pressure of the distended s omach on the heart and lungs, inter fering with their action; hence arises palpitation and short breath. Poor digestion also poisons the blood, making it thin and watery, which irri tates and weakens the heart. The most sensible treatment for heart trouble is to improve the digestion and to insure the proiupt assimilation of food. This can be done by the regular use after meals of some safe, pleasant and effective digestive "preparation, like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be found at most drug stores, and which contain valuable, harmless digestive elements in a pleasant, convenient form. ' It is safe to say that the regular per Bietent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at meal time will cure any form of Btomach trouble except . cancer of the etomach. Full sized package of these tablets sold by druggists at 50 cents. Little book on stomach troubles mailed free, Address F. A. Stuart, Co., Marshall, Mich. - Drought is Broken. San Francisco, March 15. The drouth which has threatened the loss of millions of dollars to the state has been broken by a rain storm which promises to continue for several days. Nearly an inch .has already been distributed over the Sacramento valley. Reports show that both grain and fruit crops are in excellent condition throughout the big valley. Only a trace of rain has fallen in the southern coast counties but there, as elsewhere, indications point to a big rain storm, where it is needed more than in any other part of the state. . San 'Francisco, March 15. It has been raining here steadily for the past 24 honrs, and the storm has become gen eral throughout the state. Aa the season of the year when pneu monia, la grippe, sore throat, coughs, colds, catarrh, bronchitis and lung troubles are to be guarded against, nothing "is a fine substitute." will "answer the purpose," or is "just aa good" aa One Minute Cough Cure. That is the one infallible remedy for all. lung, throat 'or bronchial troubles. Insist vigorously upon having it if "something else" is offered you. Snipes-Kinersly Drug Co. Wood Wood Wood.

TROUBLE FEARED AT HAVANA Supporters of Gomez and the Assem bly Have Each Arranged for Dem onstrations to be Given and a Clash Seems Unavoidable. Chicago, March 15. A special to the Times-Herald from' Washington says : Discretionary authority has been given to Major-General Brooke, governor general of Cuba, to dissolve the Cuban assembly. From the tone of General Brooke's dispatches, officials expect that he will immediately avail himself of the authority invested in him. Such action will (be tbe first inter ference of the government of the United States with the persons styling them selves the representatives of the Cnban people, and if it occurs it will be entirely due to the illegal and unjustifiable acts of those persons: Furthermore, Gen. Brooke will recog nize General Gomez as the represent ative of the Cuban people until such time as the national assembly of Cuba shall be organized. He will be consulted on all points relative to the welfare of Cuba, and General Brooke will continue to show him the deference due his position as the recognized leader of the Cubans. Before the discovery of One Minute Cough Cure, ministers were greatly dis turbed by coughing congregations. No excuse for it now. Snipes-Kinersly Drug Co. TTie Columbia Packing Co..
