It may bu a queation whether the
editor of u newspaper bus the rfcht to
puliliely recommend any of tho varioua
proprietary medicinea which flood tho
market, yet uh a nruventivo of Bufferine;
wu feel It u duty to aay a nond word for
Chamhorlain'K Colic, Cholera and Diur
rhoua Uemedy. Wo lmvo known and
uaed thia medicinu in our family lor
twenty yeara and hayo always found it
roliuhle. In many cuaue 11 doau of this
remedy would wave lioura of Euiluriui:
whilu a phyaiciau ia awaited. Wo do
not believe in depending implicitly on
any medicine for a cure, but wu do
believe t tint if a bottle of Chamberlain's
Diarrhoea Itemed' waa kejit on hand
and adiuiniatcred at thu iuceptiun of an
attack, much auiluriuc, might bo avoided
and in very many caaea thu presence of
a phyaiciau would not bu required. At
luuHt thia lias been our experience
during tlio past twenty years. For Bale

Pnnsmio, Cal., July ly. Yetterdny
afternoon the Second Oregon regiment
gave what will probably be its Inst dress
parade while iu tliijervice of the United
States.
The parado was formedan line of bat
talions in cloEe columns Although the
itgiment had not held a dress parade or
battalion drill for live months, it ac
quitted itself j'pleudidly and elicited
highly favorable comments from arixy
officera present. At Manila it was freely
admitted that the Oregon regiment gnve
the best drees parades there, excelling
evtn the Fourteenth inlantry, the best
regular regiment there. There la pro
bably not u regiment now in the Eervice
tiiat can equal it in this respect. After
the parade the regiment was reviewed by
General Beebe and staff, and then it
marched in review, twenty-four files
front, preserving perfect alignment in
every company.
Physical ExaminaUtjns.
The work of phvsicd ixnmination of
tlio men began yesterday; the first bat
talion being taken firsts The surgeons
