S-rofuL- Most I'roKWssive Now
Sudden changes of weather are
especially trying, and probably to
none more so than to the scrofu
lous and consumptive.
The progress of scrofula during
a normal autumn is commonly
great.
It is probable that few people ;
ever think of scrofula its bunch- i
es, eruptions, and wasting of the
body without thinking of the
benefit many sufferers from it
have derived from Hood's Sarsa
parilla, whose success in the treat
ment of this one disease aloiio
would be enough to make it what
it is, one of the nio.t famous med
icines in the world.
There is probably not a city or
town where Hood's Sarsaparilla
has not proved it merit in more
homes than one. in arresting and
completely eradicating scrofula,
which is almost as serious, and aa
much to be feared as its near rel
ative, consumption.
Hood's Pills, the cathartic to
take with Hood's Sarsaparilla, in
cases where one is necessary are
gentle in action and thorough in
effect. Adv.

PULLMAN. Wash., Oct. 21.
The 23rd annual pridiron contest
between Washington State col
lege and the I'niversity of Idaho
went to the Cougars this after
noon by a score of 20 to 3. Wash
ington's superiority was particu
larly apparent on forward passes,
Idaho having essayed several
which could not be completed.
The Idaho team's solp scoring
came in the first period, Irving
scoring field goal from the Wash
ington 20-yard line. At the start
of the second period Hohannon
took iS-kadan's pass for the first
Washington touchdown. In the
middle of the third Sax went
through center for seven yards
for another, and in the final quar
ter Sax made a 17-yard run which
permitted Sandberg to carry the
ball across by a line plunge.
Near the close of the game
Washington State held the in
vaders for their fourth down on
the Washington one-yard line.
Sax and Moran were effective as
yardage gainers for Washington,
and Jenne starred with punts and
passes. Irving and Whitcomb
featured the Idaho game.

OBITUARY
Dr. Z. M. Parvin was born in
Indiana, April 25, 1843, and
while a child moved with hes par
ents to Illinois where he lived un
til his enlistment In the Union
army In 1863. He received "his
discharge from the army in 18GG.
During this period he served with
Yates 6harp-shooters and the
151st Infantry. The latter part of
his service was spent in recon
struction work In the south.
He was marired on November
11, 1866, to Addie Sutton and had
he lived until Armistice day of
this year. Dr. and Mrs. Parvin
planned to celebrate their 55th
wedding anniversary.
In 1876 Dr. Parvin moved with
his family to San Jose, Cal. where
he held the chair of music in the
state normal school until his elec
tion in 1883 as dean 4t the col
lege of music in Willamette uni
versity at Salem, Ore., which posi
tion he held for 12 years. Dr.
Parvin made Salem his home until
he went to Portland in 19 0B where
he lived until his death.
All of Dr. Parvin's life was de
voted to music. Two universities
in appreciation of his musical
achievements conferred upon him
the degree of Doctor of Music. It
is a noteworthy fact that Dr. Par
vin has graduated more finished
musicians and teachers that are
actively engaged in their profes
sion than any other professor of
music in thecountry. He' always
gave a ! great deal of his time to
the developing and leading or
church choirs. Dr. Parvin is the
author of a large number of well
"known musical compositions
which range from popular to sa
cred music and operatic scores.
He was a member of the Odd
Fellows lodge, the A.O.U.W. and
George Wright post of the G.A.R.
Dr. Parvin was the . last of six
brothers and is survived by his
wife, Addie Parvin; one daughter,
Mamie P. Brown of Portland; two
sons J. Ray of Silver Lake, Wash,
and "Chester A. who is at present
in the east, and five grandchil
dren. APPREHENSIVE.
She bad received a proposal of
marriage from a man 6he had al
ways regarded more in the light
of a brother than a lover.

I have always thought of you.
