THE SCANDAL MONGER.
It is a matter of regret that we
are compelled to say that our little
town of Heppner lias a greater
proportion of scandal mongers
than most townB of its size. This
fault seems to permeate every
class and every sect. Choice bits
of local gossip are digested daily
in great glee and a house to house
canvass is hourly inaugurated that
no one may miss the recital of
the latest report of human
faults and temporal frail
ties. That this is discreditable
alike to participants as well as to
our little city, no one will deny.
Every true man or woman
should live iD this world with an
ambition, at least, to make exist
ence for themselves and neighbors
pleasant and profitable. A kind
word, a bright smile and a hearty
clasp of the hand costs nothing on
the part of the donor, yet how it
assists to make the pathway of life
full of sunshine and hope. The
cloned lips and unwilling ear often
save the friend, the neighbor,
many a hapless thrust. To revel
injfieudish glee at the story of frail
ties, more often untrue than other
wises, hows a character that does not
look upward to better and nobler
things, but rather downward to
that dark gulf into whose deep
recesses once ougulfed, the human
mind becomos pervortod.
It must not bo donied that every
person owos a great deal to sooiety,
and they should endeavor to
honestly attempt to porform a
a small part of that mission at
least. Some seem to think, how
ever, that this responsibility should
lead them to persecute as did the
religious bigots of back centuries.
Even the Puritans of historical
lore, devotedly religious and of
acknowledged purity, forced from
thoir native land to the then bleak
and unwolcomo shores of New
England for their religious belief,
oompolled others to observe their
oreed and penalty.
A true American can be led but
he is hard to drive. Individual
purity and rectitude has its in
lluouce and is felt in every com
munity, aud this alone in the
moral Held works more for good
than any force measures.
The ordiuary babblor deserves
littlo notico from any person, yet
the incessant digging and thrust
ing will like the continual dropping
of water on stoue, in time wear out
the patience of Job or the for
boaranoe of Christ. And we will
say that this continual scandaliz
ing, in most cases built upon a
mere iuoidout, aud not infrequently
falsehoods made out of whole
cloth, will b'ing about serious
trouble. Dut recently an innocont
young lady in our city was the
subject of discussion, and our last
issue contained an article fully
vindicating her actions, besides
establishing a complete alibi.
This is but one case, and again we
warn our people against eternally
packing tales which can result in
nothing good, and as we have said
before, may cause serious compli
cations between people who should
be friends.
Ta East Oregonian says free

tection. Very good. A good

THE "SEVEN DEVILS"
SCRIPTURE.
OF
A NEW THEORY SUCCESSFULLY TRIED
IN DUNKIRK AND CAREFULLY IN
VESTIGATED BY A BLADE RE
PORTER FOR THE BENEFIT OF
THE MEDICAL FRATERNITY.
From the Toledo Blade.
The physicians and inhabitants of
Dunkirk, Hardin county, O , are aston
ished at a reoent happening in that
usually quiet hamlet.
Dunkirk ia a little village, half way
between Toledo and Columbus, on the
Pennsylvania and Ohio Central roads,
and Mr. C. F. Broseke, a leading German
oitizen, keeps the oity flour mills. He
bus one son and three daughters all
grown.
Miss Anna Broseke, the second daugh
ter, is a young woman 28 years eld. It is
her remarkable siokness and still more
remarkable cure that has Btartled the
dootors and BBtonished her relatives and
friends.
Learning tbat Miss Broseke was at
present in Toledo, and boarding at No.
823 Mulberry St., a representative of the
Blade oalled on her. Upon being re
quested to relate the peculiarities of ber
reoent sickness and subsequent cure,
the young lady said :
"I am glad you have oalled, and am
willing my name should be made public,
as good cannot help but result to some
other poor sufferer. For many years
our family lived in Falmouth, Kentuoky.
Nine years ago, st the aiie of 19, I begao
to suffer from neuralgia in the head.
The pain nearly killed me. The neural
gia then scattered all over my system,
but worse in the utomHcb. Six physici
ans at Falmouth and vicinity treated
me for several years. My father paid
out hundreds of dollars for their services.
I became worse and worse as time
advanced. I was given up to die.
After meals my stomach would distress
me terribly, and at times I would nearly
choke to death. I could not drink tea
or coffee and could eat but little. It
seemed as if what little food I did est
would ferment at once. I became weak.
Night and day I prayed for relief in
death.
Two years ago we moved to Dunkirk,
Uhio. The four physicians there were
called, one after another. One oalled
my trouble heart disease. Another said
it was aoute dyspepsia. Instead of
improving I continued to grow worse.
One day laHt spring my father read of a
case similar to mine in the Oincinatti
Enquirer. It told how a medioiue oalled
Dr- Williamt,' Pink Pills had onred b
lady of neuralgia of the stomach. The
symptomB and experiences were exactly
the same as mine. I beoame at onoe
interested and hopeful. My father went
to Upper Saudusky the next day and
purchased a box of Pink Pills. I com
menced taking them last May, aud be
gan to improve so rapidly that the
whole village was interested. The
doctors were surprised but admitted
that the Pink l'ills were a Godsend to
mo. I used 13 boxes in nil. The neu
ralgia is entirely gone. My stomach is
strong and healthy, my appetite good,
and my Bleep is peaceful. I oame to
Toledo, November ilth, prepared to fluisb
my musical education, which my sick
ness oompellod nie to abandon nine
years ago. I attended the mnsioal
department at the Ureuline Convent. I
dislike newspaper uotorlety and only
consent to this interview to let the world
know my experience aud faith in Dr.
Williams' Pink Pilis, and tho hope of
saving the lite ot some other poor
sufferer whose case is pronounced hope
less." Miss Broseke is an intelligent and
well educated lady of natural relinement.
Iler honesty is unquestioned. Her
whole appearance is now a picture of
health. Her cheek i are rosy, her eyes
are bright, and ber every move is indi
cative of perfect health.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are now given
to the public as an unfailing blood
builder and nerve restorer, curing all
forms ot weakness arising from a watery
condition ot blond or shattered nerves,
two fruitful oauses of most every ill tbat
flesh ia beir to. The pills aro also
specific for the troubles peculiar to
females, such as suppressions, all forms
ot weakness, chronic constipaticn, bear
ing down pains, etc, and in the case ot
men will give speedy relief and effect a
permanent cure in all cases arising from
mental worry, overwork, or excesses of
whatever nature. The pills are sold by
all dealers, or will be sent poet paid on
receipt of price, (50 oeuts a box, or 6
boxes for $2.50 they are never sold in
bulk, or by the 100) by addressing Dr.
Williams' Medioiue Company, Schenec
tady, N. V., or Brookville, Outorio.
A Ueorgia editor puts it in this style:
"The wind bloweth, the water tlowetu,
the farmer aowetb, the subscriber nweth
and the Lord knoweth that we are in
needs of onr dues. So oome runnin',
this thing ot dunniu' gives us the bines.

Tramping Tor a Purpose.
Au amusing story is told of the late
Trof. Henry Morley. Some years ago
when the "slumming" boom was occu
pying general attention he was ac
costed one day by a peculiarly emaciat
ed and ragged individual, who solicited
aid in moving terms. Prof. Morley,
who was never proof against such pe
titions, responded with a silver coin.
"Thank you, Prof. Morley; I'm much
obliged," said the man. "You know
me, eh?" ' 'Yes, I attended your lec
tures at King's College in 1800." "Dear,
dear, I'm sorry to see you in this state."
"Not at all, my dear professor, I am
doing some articles for my paper, and
the editor insists on my making my re
searches in character. Will you dine
with me to-night?" and he handed a
card bearing a well-known name.
A Japanese Tea Room.
Huge Japanese umbrellas are serv
iceable for many things, but one seen
recently is so peculiarly striking as to
deserve especial comment. It hangs
from a hook in the ceiling of a small
room in an artist's home and forms
the entire ceiling. Beneath it is the
tea table and all its paraphernalia,
together with a bamboo settee and five
chairs, all set upon a Japanese rug.
The tea service is of fine Japanese ware
and the tea itself comes from Japan;
the entire room is complete, and one
feels on entering that it is a veritable
bit of the kind of chrysanthemums.
Emperor William's Hard Head.
In conferring upon Mgr. delia Volpe,
the grand master of the household of
the pope, the grand cross of the Order
of the Crown, Kmperor William has
shown a remurkable spirit of forgive
ness. On the occasion of the kaiser's
first visit to the pope his majesty let
his helmet tumble to the ground.
Mgr. della Volpe Immediately stooped
to pick it up. Unfortunately Kmperor
William bent down for the same pur
pose, and the head of the monarch and
that of the prelate came into violent
collision, and the gravity of all present
was put to a severe test. It required
the utmost presence of mind on the
part of the monsignor to restrain him
self from applying his hands to his
damaged pate, and since then he has
not hesitated to proclaim Emperor Wil
liam as being tho most, hard-headed
monarch in Christendom.

FOR INVENTIONS.
Equal with the interest of those having claims against the government is
that of INVENTORS, who often lose the benefit of valuable inventions because
of the incompetency or inattention of the attorneys employed to obtain their
patents. Too much care cannot be exercised in employing competent and reli
able solicitors to procure patents, for the value of a patent depends1 greatly t if not
entirely, upon the care and skill of the attorney-
With the view of protecting inventors from worthless or careless attorneys,
and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid patents, we have re
tained counsel expert in patent practice, and therefore are prepared to
Obtain Patents in the United States and all -Foreign Countries, Conduct In
terferencesy Make Special Examinations, Prosecute Rejected Cases,
Register Trade-Marks and Copyrights, Render Opinions as to
Scope and Validity of Patents, Prosecute and
Defend Infringement Suits, Etc., Etc.
If vou have an invention on hand
gether with a brief description of the
advisea as to tne best course to pursue, ivioaeis are aeiuom necessary, xi
others are infringing on your rights, or if you are charged with infringement by
others, submit the matter to up for a reliable OPINION before acting on the
matter.
