THE BUSTLK NOT NEW.
It Was Known and Written About
Orer a Century Ago.
As an article of female attire the
bustle is apparently doomed. A
marked feature of the garden party
ke'id at Marlborough House on
Thursday is said te have been the
"total disappearance of tbe cushion
n a , , k a hortt Til wa.cf "
But why this synonym? Accord
ing to Dr. Murray's mammoth
English Dictionary, one T, Monro,
in 1788, uroduced tbe following
cauplet:
Such locks the nymphs now wear in silks
who rustle.
In rich luxuriance reaching to the bustle.
The familiar woid has, conse
quently, literary sauctieo, out
despite this fact, plus tbe antiquity
to which it can evidently lay claim,
the disappearance of the thinn
which it represents is not !ikly to
be reg rded with any profound
feelings tf regret.

Julius Gradwohl calls the atten
tion of the citizens of Albany to in
sure before it is too late. He rep
resents seven insurance companies
w ho carry a capital of f 70,000,000,
with a cash deposit in the state of
Oregon of $350,000.
Farmers w ho have spent the en
tire year in producing a crop
of wheat should run no risks now,
but promptly get insurance upon
I he crop and guard against fire, for
if they lose their crop by lire,it is a
calamity to the whole community
as well as an irreparable injury to
to them.
Seattle, Ellensburg, Vancouver
and Spokane Falls has nothing to
do with our companies ; the losses
will all be paid and still we are
ready for business, the same as af
ter the Chicago fire.
IMsarsaloc an. 1'nseen Foe.
"This was sometime a paradux," as
Hamlet says. Since, koweTer, tke
people of America ano other .'aad
Lava been enables to pit Ilostetter's
Stomach Bitters against that unseen
foe, malaria, it is no longer a paradox,
but aa easy possibility. Wkatever
malaria evolves its misty venom to
poison tke air, and decaying ua whole
some vegetation impregnattr tke
water, there, in the very atrongkold
of miasma, is tke auxiliary potent- to
disarm the foe and assure efficient
protection. Fever and ague, bilious
remittent, dumb ague ana s rue cake,
no matter how tenaciously they have
fastened their clutch on the system,
are irst forced to relax their eras
and eventually to abandon it alto
gether. But it i preventive force
that should chiefly recommend the
Bitters to persons dwelling in malaria
cursed localities, for it is a certain
buckler of defence against which Ike
enemy ,s powerless. Cures, likewise,
dyspepsia, rheumatism, kidaey and
bilheui ailment.
Do Not Banter Any Longer
Knowing that a cough can be

After a long experience 1 have come
to the conclusion that two-thirds of
all deaths from coughs, pneumonia
and consumption might be avoided
if Dr. Achor's English Remedy for
consumption were only nsed in time.
This wonderful remedy is sold under
a positive guarantee by Foshay A

Washington, ' Aug. 5. Post
master General Wanamaker has
issued an order extending the age
limit governing the appointment
of letter carriers in mn civil ser
vice post offices from thirty-five to
forty years. The age limitation
does not apply to persons honor
ably discharged from Army or
Navy.
The seizure of the Canadian
sealer ''Black Diamond' in Bher
lugs sea by the U. S. Cutter 4,Rusn"
ilill continues to be talked about
here. One thing may be set down
as certain the administration is
determined to carry out the law,
and every vessel canghti llegally
taking sells in Behrings sea will be
seized. Representative Farquhar,
of New York, who was a promi
nent member of the Congressional
committee which made the investi
gation of the seal fisheries that led
to the enactment of the law under
which this teizure was made, is
now in Washington. Speaking of
the seizure and its probable out
come he said: '"This country will
go right en asserting and main
taining its jurisdiction over the
Bthring Sea fisheries, and England
cant lay a word in earnest about
the matter. Russia stands readv
to make good our title derived by
purchase from her. Great Britain
cannot afford to antagonize two
great nation Russia and the
United States. There is no doubt
about Russia's disposition in tbe
matter. They guaranteed us a
title and England cannot seriously
question that title without antag
onizing Russia. If she went into
a fight she would have two antag
onists. This is all well understood
in England, as wc i, as in Russia
and America.
