There is nothinp so repulsive looking and disgusting as an old sore. You worry over it till the brain grows weary awl work with it until the patience is exhausted, and the very sight of the old festering, sickly looking place makes you irritable, despondent and desperate. A chronic sore is the very best evidence that your blood is in an unhealthy and impoverished condition, that your constitution is breaking down under the effects of some serious disorder. The taking of strong medicines, like mercury or potash, will sometimes so pollute and vitiate the blood and im pair the general system that the merest scratch or bruise results in obstinate non-healing sores of the most offensive character. Often an inherited taintbreaksout infrightful eating sores upon the limbs or face in old age or middle life. Whenever a sore refuses to heal the blood is always at fault, and, while antiseptic washes, salves, soaps and powders can do much to keep down the inflammation and cleanse the sore, it will never heal permanently till the blood itself lias been puri ficd and the deadly renusand poisons destroyed, nnd with S.

At a public meeting held at Phy Hall It was de cided to organize an improvement club for the benefit of the city. C. E. Cockran was elected president and L. J. Davis secretary. The object of the club is to get new settlers to locate, to Improve the city's sanitary condi tion and to aid the city council en forcing all the laws. CANT BEAT THE DUTCH. The Dutch are better men on the land than the English Mr. Rhodes affirmed It as strongly as Benjamin Kldd. Not only are they bettor men, but they are much cleverer politi cians. Dr. Gordon Sprlgg. the present premier of Capo Colony, told me last year that the rough old Dutch farm ers from the back country had such a natural Intuitive genius for politics that, after three weckB in parliament, they could give points to any British member who had been In the house for months. Not only are they bettor men all round on the land, not only are they abler politicians all round in the houses of parliament, but what Is far more Important, they are better breeders of men. The British colonist following the cxamplo of the French man and the New Englander, shrinks from the primal task of multiplying and Increasing and replenishing the earth. The Dutch cradle Is never empty. If the hand that rocks the cradle Bways the world. It Is not less true that the race that fills the cradle will possess the world. Hence the destiny of South Africa seems toler ably certain to be that of a federation of self-governing states, pre-eminently Dutch, which will or will not be. sheltered by the Union Jack, accord ing to the readiness of the Imperiol government to recognize that It has no. authority over Africanders.

Edi son continues to be the source of the. greatest amazement to the clerks and officials of the patent office who have In charge the work of looking after tho applications placed on file by this Inventor. On the 31st of thlB month Mr. Edison will have obtained 791 patents from the patent office on as many Inventions, a larger number by sovcral hundreds than any other lndl-' vldual has received In the history of the office. This remarkable record was ascertained by J. B. Babson, chief of the division of Issue and ga zette of tho patent office, who has made a tabulated statement of the in ventions of Mr. Edison. From this statement it would ap pear that prior to 1895 the Inventor had obtained 711 patents, and that since that time he has received the following numbers: In 1896, three patents; in 1897, two patent: In 1898, eight patents; in 1899, three patonts; in 1900, 1G patents; In 1901, 23 pat ents, and In 1903 he has so far re ceived six patents, Washington Star.

The effort Is being made to create sectional Jealousies, to turn the people of tho different sec tions against the project by using the referendum as a club, while selfish interests direct the wielding of It. Brazen voiced agents are being sent out over tho state to secure signatures of voters to referendum petitions with this end In view. Why? Be cause the sum appropriated by the last legislature is to be used to the freeing of the river nbove Tho Dalles to navigation. If this money was certain to be wasted, as Is alleged; was inadequate In amount for the purpose, there would he no cry against the expendi ture by the parties at Interest, hut since It is to he spent resultfully and with full fruits to the people of the grcnt Inland Empire, to those of Portland and the rest of Oregon, the hand of Esau appears to direct af fairs while tho voice of Jacob Is heard THE RHODES WILL SCHOLARSHIPS MAY NOT BE CONFERRED AT ALU Conditions Under Which the Splendid Gifts Were to Be Made Not Plain ly Understood No Central Author ity on the Subject. Washington, D. C. May 22 At tempts to acquire definite Information regarding tho Cecil Rhodes scholar, ships havo so far proved unavail ing and educators In this country are unable to learn In what manner can didates for these scholarships arc to be selected, and how the scholarships are eventually to be awrded in the several states and territories. Under the terms of the Rhodes w 111 one scholarship is to be awarded In each state and territory, and from each state and territory suggestions have been forwarded to the trustees of the Rhodes estate, Indicating meth ods of selecting candidates. But up to the present time no Intimation has come that any system has been agreed upon. The matter was recently taken up with the superintendent of public schools in Washington city, and he confessed that "nobody scemB to know how the Cecil Rhodes scholar ships are to be awarded." Peculiar Provisions. He did. however, call attention to the peculiar features of the will, boar Ing on these scholarships, which pro vides as follows: "In the election of a student to a scholarship regard should bo nad io: "First His literary and scholastic attainments. "Second His fondness for or suc cess In manly outdoor sports, such as cricket, football and the like. "Third His qualities of manhood, Buch as truth, devotion to duty, sym pathy for and protection of the weak; kindliness, unselfishness and fellow shin. "Fourth His exhibition during school days of moral force of charac ter and InstinctB to lead and take In terest in his schoolmates, for these latter attributes will likely, in after life guide him to esteem the perform ance of public duties as highest aim." TO EXTEND THE ROAD. Grading to be Commenced at Once at Whitney. While in Portland last Monday C. W. NIbley In speaking of the S. V.

The grading crew will start Immediately to work and the rail nec essary to complete the line Is now ar riving. The now line will open a still better lumber section and bo of great benefit as an agricultural stimulus to the country.
