Treatment was administered to relieve

WHOLESOME ADVICE.
For People Whose Stomachs
are Weak
aod Digestion Poor.
Dr. Harlandson, whose opinion in
diseases is worthy of attention, says
when a man or woman comes to me
complaining of indigestion, loss of
appetite, sour stomach, belching, sour
watery risings, headaches, sleep
lessness, lack of ambition and a gen
eral run down nervous condition I ad
vise them to take after each meal one
or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
allowing the tablet to dissolve in the
mouth, and thus mingle with the food
eaten. The result is that the food is
speedily digested before it has time to
sour and ferment. These tablets will
digest food anyway whether tbe
stomach wants to or not. because they
contain harmless digestive principle,
vegetable essences, pepsin and Golden
Seal which supply just what the weak
stomach lacks.
I have advised the tablets with
great success, both in curing indigest
ion and to build up the tissues, in
crease flesh in a thij nervous patient,
whose real trouble was dyspepsia and
as soon as tbe stomach was put to
rights they did not know what sick
ness was.
A fifty cent package of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets can be bought at
any drug store, and as they are not a
secret patent medicine, they can be
used as often as desired with full as
surance that tbey contain nothing
harmful in the slightest degree; on the
contrary, any one whose stomach is at
all deranged wll find great benefit
from the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
laoieis. xney win cure any iorm of
stomach weakness or disease except
cancer of tbe stomach. Full size
package at druggists 50c or $1 .00 or by

Died at Caldwell.
The following; clipped-from Cald-
jrell, Idaho, Tribnne, annouuees the
death of a young man well known in
The Dalles: .
Harry A. Parrott, the 20-year-old
son of Mn. A. J. Moses quietly passed
away last Monday morning, Aug 29th
after a long and lingering illness occa
sioned by a disease that had been slow
ly sapped up the life blood of the
young man for the past two years.
The cause of death was the disease
called cancer. A little over a year ago
the young man had his leg amputated
In consequence, but It had gained such
a headway that it was impossible to
eradicate it from his system. All the
tender nursing a loving mother could
bestow and the assistance that medi
cal skill could devise was done to stay
the ravages of the disease, but all fail
ed and the spirit of the long suffering
young man at last found relief from
earthly pain and troubles in that mys
terious borne where neither are known
The funeral occurred Tuesday from
the family residence on Main street
and tbe remains were followed to tbeir
last earthly resting place by a large
concourse of friends of tbe young man
A Beiuarable Episode.
A tbrilling scene was witnessed in
the Central Armory in Cleveland
Ohio, during the lecture of Dr. A. J
Palmer. The lecturer described tbe
battle of Fort Wagner, In which he
was captured, the march through the
streets of Charleston, surrounded by a
howling mob, the imprisonment at
Columbia, the journey to Richmond
and incarceration in Libby Prison
He said as the captives were marched
through the streets of Richmond at
night, when they heard a sweet voice
singing:
"We are coming Father Abraham,
Six hundred thousand more."
'That was tbe voice" of Chaplain
Mi-Cabe, said the speaker.
This was the sigcal for immense ap
plause. ' Handkerchiefs and bats were
waved, and tho applause continued
tbe Immense throng turning their
faces toward the gallery, - where the
Chaplain sat, until,, he rose, and recog
nized the compliment by waving bis
hat. But tho people were not content
with this. The applause continued,
grew louder, and ceased not, until the
gallant Chaplain graciously descended
from the gallery,- sat down at the
piano, and sang:
"We are coming Father Abraham,
Six hundred thousand more."
Christian Advocate,

When a young
eirl steps from
girlhood into wo
manhood, she en
ters a new and strange
country. A land of
nromise and horje. vet
full of hidden dangers. Whether she will
find happiness or misery depends largely
npon the health and condition of the deli
cate, special organism which is the source
and centre of her womanhood. .
The lives of vouner women are often
wrecked because of a mistaken sense of
modesty, which leads them to neglect the
earlier symptoms of feminine weakness.
lhese troubles unless corrected, develon
into serions chronic difficulties which be
come a dragging burden, ruining life's best
opportunities and blighting all possibility
of happy wifehood and motherhood.
Any woman snflennsr from these delicate
complaints needs the health-giving power
of Dr Pierce's Favorite Prescriotion. It
heals and strengthens the womanlv orrans:
stops weakening drains; gives vitality to
the nerve-centres, and restores perfect or
ganic soundness and constitutional energy.
It is the only inedicine devised for this pur
pose by a skilled and experienced snecialist
in diseases of the feminine organism.
Mrs. w. B. Duncan, of Arlington. Mo., writes :
I have used your Favorite Prescnmion and
am new tired of sounding its praise. When my
lady friends complain. I say ' Why don't you take
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription?1 I told an
anxious mother, whose daughter (18 vears old)
had not been right for five months, about the
medicinaand after the vounir ladv had tnlcm
two-thirds of a bottle of Favorite Prescription
she was all right he had been treated by two
of our best doctors."
Dr. Pierce's great thousand-nacre illtta-
trated book, "The People's Common Sense
Medical Adviser" sent paper-bound on
receipt of at one-cent stamps to pay the
cost of mailing onlv. Or. a handsome
cloth-bound copy for 31 stamps. Addrrt.

I have heard Chaplain McCabe's lec
ture, "The Bright Side of Life in
Libby Prison ." Aside from his great
popularity in the ministry, this lec
ture alone has given him a high
reputation throughout the United
States. He speaks' from the exper
ience of an actual participant in the
scenes and incidents of prison life.
Besides picturing the condition of the
inmates of Libby prison more vividly
than pen can portray, he describes
that side of prison life that is so little
known outside, how the boys make the
best of everything to keep their epirits,
beguile the weary hours, and make
their life there endurable. The lec
ture is replete with incidents and
descriptions that give it intense in
terest. Chaplain McCabe's reputation as a
singer is scarcely less than that of a
lecturer. There are few singers in the
country that possess more power of ex
pression in song than he.
I am glad to have tbe opportunity of
hearing him again.

Land Poor.
"Land poor is a term that fully des
cribes a condition which the hard
times of tbe past few years have
taught many a farmer In the great
wheat belt of Eastern Washingtor to
avoid," said a gentleman from Whit
man county to the writer. "I know
an Intelligent farmer in Whitman
county whom the panic of '9-J found in
possession of 1000 acres of wheat land
with an immense crop that it was im
possible to save from the fall rains, and
If it had been, tbe price would scarce
have paid for the bare threashing.
"At a great sacrifice and through
many hardships the farmer held on to
his land through the two hard years
that followed. I met him the other
day and asked him how he was doing,
tiis answer was, tbe crop las'', year
amounted to 46.000 bushels, I sold
20,000 and paid eyery dollar I owed
leaving me the balance for a rainy day.
My crp this year is excellent, but just
as soon as I can maxe the turn I will
sell at least the half of my land, fori
have learned that one of the worst
evils of a hard year is that of being
land poor.' "
Nerves Out of Tone.
Just as the strings of a musical in
strument get out of tune through the
lack of care and break out Into ear-
torturing discords when touched, so
the human nerves got out of tune and
make everybody miserable that comes
in contact with them. Every tobacco
user's nerves are out of tune more or
less, and the real tobacco-slave's
nerves are relaxed to tbe utmost. No-
To-Bac is the tuning key which tight
ens the nerves, makes' them respond
quickly to the emotions, resulting in
tbe happiness of all. No-To-Bac guar
anteed tobacco habit cure, makes weak
men strohg. We advise all tobacco
users to take No-To-Bac.
P. S. Davidson, of La Cross, Wis.,
came up today f torn Hood River. Mr.
Davidson is looking over the ground
with the object of starting a sawmill
at the mouth of Hood river with a ca
daclty of not less than 125,000 feet a
a day. The mill, if built, will be
driven by steam, and the logs will be
floated from tho timber belt on the
headwaters of the river. From an in
terview with Mr. Davidson the 'Clme-j-
Mountaineer gathers that there is
every probability that the mill will be
built in the near future.

Jerry Sullivan, the 36-inch giant and

ranging for the opening of a week's
engagement for the Wizard Oil Co.,

day. Mr. Sullivan says the show is
all right, and his statements can al
ways be relied upon. The show will
be on the Vaudeville nature, and will
create fun for everybody.
