NOTICK TO INVENTORS.
There ar.is never a time in the history
of our country when the demand for
inventions nnd improvements in the arte
ant sciences generally was so great as
now. P conveniences of rni'.ikind in
the factory imrl workshop, the houeho)d
Brut o.i t!:n farm, r. b in official
life, rpqn.'c cnnfiimit! noi'tcfl nm to the
Hppurt.'Diiitw aoii implimeots of eueb
in order to nave, labor, time and expense.
Th political ch'ines in the administra
tion of a.iv.voineiit does not affect the
progress of the American inventor, who
betug on ihe. Hierl, and ready to per
ceive the existing deficiencies, does not
permit tlie niTiirs of government to de
ter bim from quickly conceiving the
remedy to overcome existing discrepan
cies. Too great c ire cannot be exer-o;-ed
in choosing a competent and skill
ful attorney to prepare Hnd prosecute
bd application for patent. Valuable in
terest Lave been lost and destroyed in
innnrasrable instances bv the employ
ment of incompetent counsel, and es
pecially is this advioe applicable to
those who adopt the "No patent, no
pay" sjHtein. Inventors who entrust
their buHineas to this ohiss of attorneys
do o at imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength of the patent is never con
sidered in view of a quick endeavor to
get an Hllowanco and obtain the fee.

"Among the miiny testimonials which I
ee in regard to certain medicines perform
ing cures, cleansiug the blood, etc.," writes
IliiNitv Hudson, of the James Smith
Woolen Machinery Co.,
Philadelphia, Pa., "none
impress me more than my
own cue. Twenty years
ago, at the age of 18 years,
I had swellings come on
my legs, which broke and
became running sores.
Our family physician could
do me no good, and it was
feared that the bones
would be affected. At last,
my good old mother
urged roe to try Ayer'
Sarsaparilla. I took three
bottles, the sores healed,
and I have not been
troubled since. Only the
scars remain, and the
memory of the past, to
remind me of the good
Ayer's Sarsaparilla has done me. I now
weigh two hundred and twenty pounds, and
am In the best of health. I have been on the
road for the past twelve years, have noticed
Ayer's Sarsaparilla advertised In all parts
of the United States, and always take pleas
ure In telling what good it did for me."
For the cure ot all diseases originating in
Impure blood, the best remedy Is
AYER'S Sarsaparilla

from now the farmers, as well as other
people, will be buying California vinegar,
just as if there was nothing in Oregon to
make it.
It is remarkable that of the six deaths
upon which assessments are to be paid
in the A. O. U. W. order for the month
of October, five of them were violent.
Two were from drowning, one railroad
aeoldent, one crushed by machinery, one
pistol shot and the sixth tnberoolosis.
There are now 670S members in that
order in Oregon .
The Dalles, Portland & Astoria Navi

portage, at Casoades locks. The inten
tion is to build tbe track on a higher
level and oonstruot a steep iuoline with
hoisting engine at the top. The work
mut be done before November 10. and
will oust several thousand dollars. River
trsffia continues so brisk that this outlay
is justified.

JOLLY TO BE AN EDIT Ht.
A eoboolboy's composition ou "Tbe
Editor" ran as follows :
The editor is one of the happiest indi
viduals in tbe world, He can go to any
oirous in the afternoon and evening
without paying a penny, also to inquests
and hangings; has free tickets to theaters,
gets wedding cake sent him, and some
times gets a licking, but not often, for be
can take things baok in tbe next issue,
which he generally does. While other
folks have to go to b-'d early, tbe editor
sits up lute at night and sees all that is
going on. When I am a man I mean to
be au editor, so that I may stay out late
at night. That will be jolly. Ex.

Philadelphia,
York and Lancaster Rose.
Those familiar with Shakespeare re
member that the two antagonistic
houses of York and Lancaster had
their followers distinguished by one
side carrying white roses and the other
red roses. There is in cultivation a
rose called the York and Lancaster on
account of striped white and red lines
pervading the petals these colors, of
course, represent the two houses
united. Just what particular species
of roses were chosen has alwavs had
an interest for the critical student. A
recent notice In the Quarterly Review
decides that the white rose of York j
was tho English whit rose. Eosa
arvensis. and warmly contends that it
was a. double variety of this species;
but if that rose at all, it was most like
ly to be a pure wild form, for it would
be almost impossible to. get double

Saved Her Life.
Mrs. 0. J. Woor.DRrooit, of Wortham,
Texas, saved the life of her child by the
use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
"One of my children had Croup. The
ease was attended by our physician, and was
supposed to he well under control. One
night I was startled bv the child's hard
breathing, and on going to it found it stran
gling. It had nearly ceased to breathe.
Realizing that the child's alarming condition
had become possible in spite of the medicines
given, I reasoned that such remedies would
he of no avail. Having part of a bottle of
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral In the house, I gave
the child three doses, at short Intervals, and
anxiously waited results. From the moment
tho Pectoral was giveu, the chilli's breathing
grew easier, and, in a short time, she was
sleeping quietly and breathing naturally.
The child is alive and well to-day, and I do
not hesitate to say that Ayer'a Cherry Pec
toral saved her life."

AN ELASTIC CONSCIENCE.
The Sin of It Ley only In Being Found
Out With Her.
The penalty attendant upon being
detected is tho entire foundation of
many people's honesty. A woman,
says a writer in the New York Recorder,
in whose company I found myself re
cently; was relating with pride an in
stance of her shrewdness. She re
marked as a preface to her story that
anyone who expected to get the better
of her would have to be an early riser.
Said she:
"I went to the theater the other
night and after the play a lady who
sat in front of me asked ine if ths
umbrella under her chair belonged to
me.
"I said no, and as no one else claimed
it she left it at the box office. It was a
lovely umbrella with a silver handle.
"Well, now the joke begins. About
week later I went to the theater and
asked if such an article had been found
and if they had it. I described it per
fectly and told when it was lost. I
didn't say it was mine, but just let
them infer it. It was there still; the
owner had never called for it proba
bly never knew where it had been left.
They handed it out when I had an
swered all their questions, and I'm
that much in.
I had just as good a rig'ht to it as
the theater people, and it looked, after
a week, as if the woman who found it
wasn't going to put in a claim. I'm
going to get a hat with the money I
saved by being wide awake, for I in
tended to buy a new nmbrella."
