week or two will make fair crops.

nnder date of the 13th that he could
not learn of any horte stealing in that

ing been overstocked

The report of the grand officers of the
Degree show the order in this state to
Death of Edward F. Jenkins.
'Tis often said "death likes a shining
mark," and icdeed this seems true for
too often it cyts down those whose
lives are most promising, yonng per
sons whose usefulness seems to have
just begun. This indeed seems to
bave been true with regard to the
young man whose name prefaces this
article. Deceased was a young man
of much promise, one who had just
entered the field of usefulness under
tbe most favored auspices. Had he
lived until next October he would bave
been only 23 years of age, yet he had
accomplished more tban many other
men of 30. In 1897 he graduated from
Tbe Dalles high school well up in bis
class, and last spring graduated from
Holmes business college. After fin
ishing a business course he at once en
tered the service of the O. R. & N. Co.
as stenographer in the Portland office,
and held the position until the 4th of
the present month, when be was taken
seriously ill with appendicitis. He
was taken to St. Vincent's hospital
where an operation was performed on

For Uniform Assessment. .
Recognize tbe lack of uniformily in
assessing property for taxation pur
poses in this state, Judge J. H. D.
Gray, of Clatsop county, issued an
invitation to the county judges, com
missioners and assessors to meet with
bim in Portland, last Thursday for the
purpose of devising some plan by
which like property could have similar
values placed on it in each of the sev
eral counties. As a result eight
county judges, thirteen assessors and
six commissioners attended the meet
ing.
At tbe meeting the question ol as
sessment and taxation was quite free
ly discussed, though no definite action
was taken, but the matter will be
more fully considered at a meeting to
be held in Portland the second Tues
day in February cext, when it is to
be hoped all tbe counties will be re
presented, and all assessors are ex
pected to bring to this meeticg a sum
mary of the taxable property in their
respective counties. At the meeting
last week a committee consisting of
one assessor from each of the judicial
districts in the state was aDpoioted to
draft a bill to be presented to the next
legislature to provide for a more uni
form system of taxation.

SICK WOMEN
are invited to consult Dr. R. V. Pierce,
cniet consulting physician to the In
valids' Hotel ana Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y., by letter, without fee or
charge of any kind. Dr. Pierce is
specialist m the diseases of women. He
has treated over half-a-million women
tar diseases of the womanly organs and
ninety-eight out of every hundred women
he has treated have been absolutely and
perfectly cured. Every letter received
by Dr. Pierce, is treated as a purely per
sonal and private communication ana its
contents guarded as a sacred confidence.
All answers to these letters are sent in
sealed envelopes bearing upon them no
printing or advertising whatever.
Write to the doctor. It is no use for
sick women to write to a man unless he
is a doctor. It is no use to " write to a
woman " unless the woman is a doctor.
Write to a woman about cookery or any
branch of housekeeping, because she is
a woman and knows. But it is of no use
to write to a woman about disease unless
she has a doctor's training and diploma.
A womaa who isn't a doctor is just as das
ferous as a maa who isn't a doctor, wbea
be undertakes to treat disease.
There is no qualified woman physician
so far as is known connected with any
proprietary medicine put up for women.
Even the "bearded woman," the man
who advertises "write to a woman" is
not a qualified physician and stands too
much in fear of the' law to claim that he is.
There is no other physician, male or
female, who, like Dr. Pierce has a record
of over thirty years, as chief consulting
physician of a well known institution,
making a specialty of the private treat
ment of women's diseases.
Write to. the doctor Dr. R. V. Pierce,
