Cartlcdge gives some helpful advice to young girls. Her letter is but one of thou sands which prove that nothing is so helpful to young girls who are just arriving at the period of womanhood as Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound. "Deah Him. PnrmrAM: I cannot praise Itydiiv E. Pinkliam's Vcfre talrto Compound too Highly, for it Is the only medicine I ever tried which cured me. I suffered much from my first menstrual period, I felt so weak and dlzzr at times 1 could not pursue my studies with the usual interest. Hy thoughts became sluggish, 1 had headaches, backaches and sinking spells, also pains in the back and lower limbs. In fact, I was sick all over. " Finally, after many other remedies liad been tried, wo were advised to get lydia 13. Pinkliam's Vegetable Compound, and I am pleased to say that after taking it only two weeks, a wonacnul change for the better took place, and in a short time I was in perfect health. I felt buoyant, full of life, nnd found all work a pastime. I ntn indeed glad to tell my experience with Lydia E. Pinkliam's Vepc tnblo Compound, for it made a dif ferent girl of me.

Conrad Plafzoeder Meat Market Bright's Disease and Diabetes News. San Francisco, Nov. 2. To tho Editor of tlio east Oregonlan. Dear Sir: For many years an edl tor myself, I address you by request and as a simple duty. A great dis covery hus been made in Uus city, It is fraught with so much Import ance and yet Is so hard to believe, that thoso who are personally cog nizant should add ine weight of their influence, be it great or small. I not only know by contact with many of tlio beneficiaries but was jnysolf rescued from Urlght'a Disease by 'It. Tho cure has been found and the difficulty in bolioving It is cost ing many lives. It is astounuing bow far our prejudices carry us. But the great fact is here, and acceptance means recovery. After my own unexpected release I wouldn't let my friends rest and sovoral took the treatmont and re covered. One was Charles F. Wack er, too Sixth street merchant. Ho had Diabetes and thought he was go ing to die. Ho got well and passed for a $5,000 policy. I say to you as a brother that thoso or. your irionus who iiavo DiaDoies or Bright's Disease, nnd evoryono Knows of some, that thoy can recover. I will bo glad as one ot many survivors out here to give you furthor informa tion. Yours &c Ohas. II. Engelke. Wo sent for tho Fulton Com pounds to which the above refers Md now nave thorn In stock.

Owlnn, the secretary nf the Oregon Woolgrowers association Is very hopeful that the sheopmen of this county and of this part of the stato will have prosperous times when the coin Is brought In from tho clips later In tho spring, nnd he does not share .ue gloomy opinion of some of tho buyers to the effect that the prlco of wool will have to fall lie fore It will bo bought by tho commls slon men. "There is but little wool in tho east at nresent." said Mr. Owlnn "and the market Is now overstocked with the remains of last year's clip. Wool is in as great demand now In the eastern markets as It was last voar nnd thero Is no reason to be Hove that tho big firms will hold back in their buying. In fact ovory indication points to the fact that the firms will want all tho lirst grade wool they can get and will be will ing to pay for what thoy buy. "The eastern firms are preparln to send their buyers to this part of the state nnd as many will bo hero when tho wool begins to come in ns were hero last year, and they will nil buy just as fast as they did then. The Arizona clip Is now in tho hands of the buyers, having all been bought ns soon after shearing as could be, which shows something of the hunger of the market. "There Is no reason for the grow ers to worry about their price for It will come. I do not know that It will run higher than it did last year, It may In some cases but In the ma jority of clips it will be about the same perhaps, but one thing is cer tain and that is that the wool of Umatilla county and of Eastern Ore gon in general Is of better quality this season than It has been for many vears. It will be as heavy In fleece. and as good In staple as It has In the history of the county nnd from this reason nlone the growers should take heart of hope and not be dis couraged by any tales of starvation prices or of overstocked markets. "Green feed has been plenty all the winter long, the sheep went into the season in tho best of condition and have stayed thero through nil the cold weather. In fact the winter has been so open, the feed so plenti ful and the general conditions so favorable that the wool has never stopped growing for a day, the sheep have never lost flesh, and the clips will come on heavier, cleaner and of better quality thnn has been noted for several years. I do not remem ber of a year more favorable for the wool men than this one promises to be. "Taking the situation as It Is and counting the price at the same fig ure as it was last year It is easy to see that tho wool grower will have more money nt the end of the season than he had last year by many dol lars. Ho has not had to feed, all of his fat has been picked from the ranges and not from his pocket. His sheep are as numerous anil in far better condition. Their fleeces are heavier than In many years nnd have been grown clean and white. "Thoy will bo sheared freer of dirt than last year, will have moro wool, of a ereater strength and lire wnicn will take In ni03t cases the top place in the market. It can be readily seen from this state of affairs that tho nmatllla and Eastern Oregon sheep man has nothing to fear from the markets. He will come out of the vear with more wool of a better grade, and at as good a price as last year. And he will have tho market to sell It in, in spite of the tales of a dearth of demand and depression in tho price."

Druggists of tho hotter class manufacture mnny oxcollont remedies, but nlwaya undor original or oflicinal names and thoy never soli false brands, or imitation medicines. Thoy are tho men to deal with when in need of anything in thoir lino, which usually includes all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of n iirBt-class pharmacy and the finest and best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances. The earning of a fair living, with tho satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the bencnts conferred upon their patrons and assistance to tho medical profession, is usually their grcutcst reward for long years of Btudy and many hours of daily toil. They all know that Syrup of Figs i8 an oxcollont laxativo romedy nnd that it gives universal satisfaction, and thoroforo thoy aro soiling many millions of bottles annually to tho well informed purchasers of tho choicest remedies, and thoy always take pleasure in handing out tho genuine articlo bearing tho full namo of tho Company California Fig Syrup Co. printed on tho front of ovory package. Thoy know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and of weakness or torpidity of tho liver and bowols, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as Syrup of Figs, and thoy nro glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction. Owing to tho excollonco of Syrup of Figs, tho universal satisfaction which it gives and tho immonse demand for it, imitations have beon made, tried and condemned, but there are individual druggists to bo found, here and there, who do not maintain tho dignity and principles of tho profession and whose greed gots tho better of their judgment, and who do not hesitato to recommond and try to sell tho imitntionB in order to make n larger profit. Such preparations sometimes havo tho name " Syrup of Figs" or "Fig Syrup" and of somo pimtical concern, or fictitious fig syrup company, printed on tho package, but they never hnvo tho full nnrno of the Company California (Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of tho packnge. Tho imitations Bhould bo rejected because thoy are injurious to the system. In order to sell tho imitations thoy find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealor passes off on a custonior a preparation under tho namo of "Syrup of Figs" or "Fig Syrup," which does not bear tho full namo ot the California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of tho packnge, he is attempting to deceive and mislead tho patron who has been so unfortunate iib to enter his establishment, whether it bo large or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and and deception in ono caso he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of physicians' prescriptions, and should be avoided by every ono who values health and happiness. Knowing "that the great majority of druggists aro reliable, we supply the immenBO demand for our oxcollont romedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every where, in original packages only, at tho regular price of fifty cents per bottle, but as exceptions exist it is necessary to inform the public of the facts, in order that all may deolino or return any imitation which may be sold to thorn. If it does not bear tho full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of overy package, do not hesitato to return tho article and to demand tho return of your money, and in future go to ono of tho bottor class ot .1.. :1 1. -11 11 , . , 1 1 1 l . f il.: n Lie K nl ....Annliln nrinna uiuujjinunvuu winccii you wnaiyou WJHU unu wie uestui ovurymiiig in hid hue ut iuunuun.i.wvi.o. rU Winter-set, Iowa, the wife of i John Thornborough left him on ac count of III treatment, and took ref uge In the home of Fred Peacock. 1 Thornborough killed Peacock in a fight, nnd mortally wounded Pea cock's father.
