Promis. Word was received last Mon day horn State President Rock wood, of Portland, that the bi ennial State Christian Endeavor convention which was to have been held in Eugene next week, could not be held there on account of so many cases of tvphoid fever. He ask-d if it would be possible ior Corvallis to hae it held here. A m-etinir of the rx( ntive com mittee of the Federation of Chris tian E-idrax or was called for Mondav nitiht at which time it was d;cided to invite the con vention to this city. While the time is short in which to prepare for so great a convention, it is long enough to make it a great sneet-ss if Endeavors and citizens will all work to make thi- one of the best conventions ever held in the stjte. Much enthusiasm is manifest and we have no tear that Corvallis will, as usual, move an hospitable host. At the meet'ne Monday night thr following committees were appointed. COMMITTEES.

A HARD ROW And a long pull describes the pathway of a woman afflicted with female.' weak cess unless she is under the care of a doctor who has had successful experience in the treatment of such cases or else has found the right remedy which can bo safely used independently of the doctor. Forty years ago. Dr. R. V. Pierce found that women were being grossly mal treatedmainly through ignorance and carelessness, and he determined to devote himself - to study and research till he found the real cause - of their suffering and a proper remedy for it. He f mind it, and dug from Nature's Laboratory, the earth, Nature's remedies for woman s weaknesses and ailments. He found in Lady's Slipper root, Black Cohosh root. Unicorn root, Blue Cohosh root and G olden Seal root, the required ingredients.- The remedial virtues of these he ex tracted, combined and preserved by his own peculiar non-alcoholic, glyceric pro cesses, and the compound is now known the world over, as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. .

Typhoid is an unnecessary evil, it is like bad government; civil in difference is responsible for one as for the other. As a matter of in dividual warning there is little to say, says McClure's Magazine. Find out where your water comes from, and, unless the community guards the general health bv fur nishing a pure drinking supply, guard your own by boiling the wa ter. Don't allow open vaults or sewage accessible to flies to exist near where you live. There's a board of health in your town; if it's worthless there's a law re garding nuisances that isn't. Go to your doctor promptly, "on suspi cion," if you have any reason to suppose that you have contracted the disease. It is no ailment to parley with. If you know of a case that the attending physician has reported privately but not to tho health department, report it your self. He won't like that, but it will be good for him. You pay taxes to get good water and to have the laws enforced; one of the best pre ventives against typhoid ' is the "pernicious municipal activity' , which gets what it pays for. After all, the question as to whether your city chooses to haye typhoid fever at great expense like Cleve land and Chicago, or to avoid it at less expense, like Lorain and Law rence, is largely a matter of in telligent working citizenship. GINSENG Information Relating to the Richest Product : - - - of the Soil - - - Prof. Howard, of the Missouri State Agricultural College, says: "I s n se American farmers to cultivate Ginseng, Big profits are -realized. 'It is' easily grown." A bulletin by the Pennsylvania State College savs: ."The supply of native Ginseng Root is rapidly diminish ing and the price per pound is correspond insrlv increasing-, while the constant de mand for the drug in China stands as a guarantee of a steady market for Ginseng in the tuture."
