Our school population has grown at such a rate that more room is required. The high school grades w ill be added this fall, and Falls City will then offer educational advantages equal to any town in Oregon. Itis the view of many that a school building should be erected on the south side of the river, in order that the younger children might have a less distance to travel and avoid the hill climbs necessary to reach the high school. Parties interested in establishing an iron foundry and machine shop in Falls City were looking the ground over this week. The outlook is good, and the young men who will ojerate the busi ness are reliable, progressive men and will push the matter to a very success ful issue. This is a good point for the business, as all our mills nave to semi machinery for repairs a long distance and wait for its return, often delaying operations for several days.

At the end of al>out a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in clotlis at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. My aunt ¿uivised me to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. So great was her faith in it that she gave me a small piece of Cuticura Soap to try and a little Cuticura Ointment. I took it home without any faith, but to please her I tried it, and it seemed to dry up the sore« a little. I sent to the drug store and got a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment and followed the directions and at the end of about two months the sores were all well. He lias never had any sores of any kind since. He is now strong and healthy, and I can sincerely say that only for your most wonderful remedies my pre cious child would have died from those terrible sores. I used only one cako of Soap and about three boxes of Ointment. Mrs. Egbert Sheldon, R. F.

(¡ASTORIA lie r a i b I - DALLAS | ’DLrtnûfl I MUTUAL 197. r n o n e s ç pacific states bob Most Populur of all M usical Instru m en ts... With the Edison factories turning out machines at the rate of two a minute every working day there is no longer any question that the Edison Phonograph has become the most popular musical instrument of the present day. Probably more Phonographs are now sold than all other musical instruments combined. The Edison Phonograph is no longer to be considered as in the class with those machines against which many are so prejudiced. Mr. Edison ami his assistants studied long to determine the cause of this prejudice. Finding it due to loud and unnatural sound repro ductions, blatent horn tones, harshness, scratching and other needless noises, they have eliminated every vestige of such faults, and produced a machine that sings, plays and talks, naturally, smoothly and with out scratching or horn tones. It is impossible to compare an Edison Phonograph with any other style of machine without realizing that the former is infinit ely better. To those who want real music, naturally reproduced, tlie Edison Phonograph asks for no other test than to he played alongside of any talking ma chine in existence. Such a test will win all but those who want noise and are not looking for quality. W . C. T . U . SPACE. Mrs. Chloe Butz, Editress. Mrs. Chloe Butz, Editress of the W. C. T.
