POSTAL SAVINGS BANK SYSTEM Since the failure of the Steus land bank in Chicago, a strong decided movement has been made by the people of Illinois to get petitions, numerously signed, to present them to congress asking that body to pass a law creating Postal Saving Banks. In some respects the Postal savings bank system has some apparent meritorious considera tion. However, as its head management will proceed from the city of Washington near the larpce financial center, New York, it will afford another link in the already burdensome chain to the disadvantage of the common people. Because the money will be concentrated in large moneyed centers of the East, thus with drawing it from the sparselv settled districts. If tha people deposit their sav ings and moneys in the banks nearest their homes, such bank fiords the means by which small sums are gathered together ag gregating large amounts. When anyone in the community wishes to borrow money to im prove his farm or buy some stock or to assist him otherwise, in business, he can go to the home bank with proper security and borrow reasonable sums to assist him. If however the same deposits were placed in a postal savinnr bank and the proceeds transferred to the U. S. treasury at Washington the Secretary of the treasury would as hereto fore deposit the same in the United States depositories in the large cities. This process would certainly make money scarce in the coun try districts and make it more difficult to obtain funds to pay laborers and transact the country trade, while the Wall street speculators and traders on stock exchanges would have the postal saving funds to assist them to operate and squeeze the small investor. It certainly would be difficult to carry on a postal savings bank system wherebv the money would b 3 loaned to needy borrowers in the remote and sparsley settled districts as it now is loaned by the banks near the depositor's home. COMMITTED TO ASYLUM. Because of Drink Is Former Cor vallis Man. After an eventful career which in many respects, as recounted by old residents of" this city, was highly sensational, S. M. Driver hss been committed to an insane asvlum in California. In years gone by he resided in Corvaliis, being the eldest son ot Rev. I. D. Driver, who was then pastor of the First Methodist chinch in this city. The son, now insane, was called into ser vic in time of the Indian trou bles, to keep peace ia Corvaliis am-, vicinitv. and is said to have In t ii a wild and reckless youth He married a young woman ot Southern Benton and from that ea.! day to the present has been lituid from in various parts of the United States where he t. ached, having become a min ister a year or two after his mar riage. The dispatches Tuesday con tained one from Los Angeles which tells the story as follows: Rev. S. M. Driver, formerly one of the best known Methodist ministers 'in the West and tor several years a r-'-Heit of Los Angtles, was today committed to Pattern Insane Asylum. The ground for his commitment was suicidal mania, alleged . to have been brought on by alcoholic ex cesses. For a time the commis sitreis were . loath to .end the minister to the hospital for the ' insane unless Mr. Driver con sented to such commitment, and he said that he would go willing ly to the hospital so that he can overcome his craze for liquor. Throughout the examination the minister talked rationally and his conduct was perfection itself. It is said a three months' rest cure to ease his nerves is all that the minister needs and that only melancholia caused his attempts to end his life. - Driver graduated from Willam ette University at Salem, Ore., and soon, entered the Union Army as a volunteer. He served throughout the war and then en tered the ministry, serving until a few years ago. Three years ago he was presiding elder at the Idaho Conference. -" Last Thursday night, accord ing to the testimony offered yes terday, Rev. Mr. Driver attempt ed to commit suicide by drinking poison, tic was saved by quick work on the part of his family and was then locked up oa an insanity chaige. COURT DOCKET.

We refer to that boon to weak, nervous, suffering women known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Proscription. Dr. John Fyfe one of the Editorial Staff of The Eclectic Medical Review says of Unicorn root (Uelonias Dioica) which is one of the chief ingredients of the "Fa vorite Prescription " : "A remedy which Invariably acts as a uter ine Invigorator makes for normal ac tivity of the entire reproductive system" He continues "in Uelonias we have amedica tuent which more fully answers the above purposes than any otlicr drug with tchich I am acquainted. In the treatment of diseases pe culiar to women it is seldom that a case is seen which does not present some indication for this remedial agent.'' Dr. Fyfe further says: "The following are among the leading indications for Uelonias (Unicorn root). Pain or aching In the back, withsleucorrhcea : atonic weak) conditioTr of the reproductive organs of Xoaen, mental depression and ir ritability, associated witlr chronic diseases of the reprodiKtive cy-gans of women; constant sensation at heat fin the region of the kid neys; meryprrhagia (flooding), due to a weak ened condition ofthe reproductive system; amenoiytigeyarpressed or absent monthly perlod).iV-s:?;rom or accompanying an atmoipyu condition of the digestive organs and Atfienilc (thin blood) habit; dragging sensjfyions in the extreme lower part of the If more or less of the above symptoms nrsTVTs(-r. no invai O'iinn fan Bet ter "tha take Dr. Fierce s Favorite entsof wiiic.i is Unicorn root, or Uelonias, osoruiL o one ui T,ne leaainz inarrno:- and the medical properties of winch it most faithfully represents. Of Golden Seal root, another prominent ingredient of "Favorite Prescription,'' Prof. Finley Ellingwood, M. D. of Ben nett Medical College, Chicago, says: "It is an important remedy in disorders of the womb. In all catarrhal conditions and general enfeeblement. it is useful." Prof. John M. Scudder, M. D.. late of Cincinnati, says of Golden Seal root : "In relation to its general effects on the system, titert fcf.o medicine in use otxntt tchich there is such central unanimity of opinion. It Is universally regarded as the tonic useful in all debilitated states." Prof. R. Bartholow, M. D., of Jefferson Medical College, says of Golden Seal : "Valuable iu uterine hemorrhage, menor rhagia (flooding) and congestive dysmen rhcea (painful menstruation)." Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription faith fully represents all the above named in gredients and cures the diseases for which they are recommended. Kidney; Cure Hale, William Hale, et. al, suit R.JL.
