Human nature is hard to solve. People who are most particular about adapt

think of going out in a storm without an umbrella and rubbers, who would not
sit in a draft, will day after day eat lard-soaked food and not realize for an instant
that it is clogging their whole inner machinery. Lard is produced from hog-fat,
sometimes impure, always indigestible. Cottolcne is the only rational frying and

thing about it is digestible and conducive to health.
It will make pure, palatable, healthful food, and food which anyone can eat

The Oregon Dally Journal has suc
cessfully refuted the allegation of the
Portland Oregonian that thousands
of Oregon democrats registered as re
publicans in order to defeat the re
publi.an senatorial candidate in the
primaries last spring. Thf following
convincing and unanswerable edito
rial from the Journal disproves the
loud and harsh ae usation of the
Oregonian. The Journal say:

the bogus claim that democrats regis

Positive assurance of greatly in

Those are some of the features
which Inspire confidence in the future
of the city. Here are a few that have
actually brought prosperity with
them:
For the first seven months of
1908, Portland shipped 9,922.233
bushels of wheat For the same pe
riod In 1907 3,205,153 bushels.
Foreign lumber shipments this
year to August 1 were 67,622056 feet;
last year 41,253,089 feet.
For the seven months this year
Portland chared 414 vessels of f48.

The value of wheat, barley and
lumber shipped by water from Port
land for the first seven months of
I'j'lH was more than $7,000,000 in ex
cess of that sent out in the same pe
riod last year.
An Increase of more than $ 1.000,
000 per month In water shipments of
gialn and lumber alone offers some
explanation of an Increase in real es

and building permits, especially when
It is known that the average of gain
will be excelled during the remaining
five months of the year.
All things considered, Portland real
estate Is cheaper today at J5000 per

regarding C'e conservation of raw
natural resources, but concerning the
Immensely Important Ueston of pre

In this connection it has already

Were the Oregonlan's contentions

When bad Mood is caused from an infection of the circulation by th
virus of Contagious Blood Poison, it usually shows in the. form of ulcerated
mouth and throat, copper-colored splotches on the body, swollen glands in
the groin, falling hair, sores and ulcers, etc. These general symptoms,
affecting all parts of the body, show how deeply poisoned the blood
becomes, and emphasizes the dangerous character of the trouble. If allows
to remain in the system the disease will finally wreck the health and break
down the strongest constitution. No medicine can cure Contagious Hlol
Poison which does not rid the circulation of every particle of the virus.
S. S. S. is the one real and certain cure; it goes down to the very bottom of
the trouble, and by removing every trace of the poison, and adding rich,
healthful qualities to the blood, forever cures this powerful disorder. S. S. S
is the most reliable of all blood purifiers, and its concentrated ingredients id
healthful vegetable extracts and juices especially adapt it to curing this
insidious trouble. Write for our home treatment book, wj.icli is a valuable
aid in the treatment of the different stages of the disease, and ask for any
special medical advice you wish. No charge for either.
