DISCOURAGER You may be discouraged because you have tried so many nerve remedies without having received any benefit. If you would only try a six weeks course of NERV1TA TABLETS, you would have good reason to rejoice. If they were not the best made why would every druggist recommend them ? They are known fcs the King of Nerve Medicines for 22 years; any druggist will sell you 6 boxes for $5. Cheer up. It's not too late. Write for Free Booklet. Fisher Drug Co. Chicago. PENDLETON DRCO COMPACT , Pendleton, Oregon Considerable Decline In Values In On. tarlo Rcjrlon. Consul Harry P. Dill sends from Port Hope the following Canadian newspaper statement concerning the prices of horses, with a comment: "The horse market has suffered a slump with the general decline in other lines and a prominent horseman has given a few figures with the question. The farmers who had horses to sell last autumn were Inclined to keep them, believing that the sprlns would, bring a better prise. Now, however, the situation has grown worse and the prices have fallen off considerably. Horses selling for J160 will not now bring more than $125. The reason asserted Is that the price of horses had for a number of years been Increasing to a price that fi nally became too high and a dimin ishing was bound to follow with the firnt general decline'." Many of the local horsemen have been Interviewed on the foregoing statement, to which they fully agree, but they say this decline will not make any change in the prices In this Immediate section, for the reason that the surplus horses have all been sold ad the farmers have heed for all that are left They thlnlc that 30 or 40 miles In thi Interior lower price will be found. If you see It In the East Oregonlan, It's so. iff i M ll'il I THIS LABEL STAN DS FO K 53 YEARS I i; y .
