We began giving our boy the medicine ac cording to directions and It was not long before we sew he was improving. He continued taking it until he was in very good health.

Some CoiiipiiriftoDi Thnt AffcrVd a Concep tlon of tile Orb's Ininienglty. Ponder also upon the stupendous size of that orb, which glows at every point of its surface with the astonishing fer vor I have indicated, writes Sir Rob ert Ball in McClure'a Magazine. The earth on which we stand is no doubt a mighty globe, measuring aa it does 8,000 mlies in diameter; yet what are its dimensions in comparison with those of the sun? If the earth be rep resented by a grain of mustard seed, then on the same scale the sun should be represented by a cocoanut. Per haps, however, a more impressive con ception of the dimensions of the great orb of clay may be obtained in this way. Think of the moon, the queen of the night, which circles monthly around our heavens, pursuing as she does, a majestic track, at a distance of 240, 000 miles from the earth. Yet the sun is so vast, that if it were a hollow ball, the moon could revolve on its orbit which it now follows, and still be en tirely inclosed within the sun's in terior. For every acre on the surface of our globe there are more than 10,000 acres on the surface of the great luminary. Every portion of this illimitable des ert of flame is pouring forth torrents of heat. It has indeed been estimated that if the heat which is inces santly flowing through any single square foot of the sun's exterior could be collected and applied beneath the boilers of an At lantic liner it would suffice to produce steam enough to sustain in continuous movement those engines of 20,000 horse power which enable a superb ship to break the record between Ireland and America. SOCIABILITY OF INDIANS. They Are Fond of Paying Social Visits Amnug Themselves. Indians, contrary to widely received opinions, are of asocial nature and fond of paying friendly visits, the etiquette of which would make u chapter of it self. Not much attention is given to the order of their going while in the dust of travel, but when arrived within a short disance of their destination a halt is called, the ponies are relieved of their burdens, the rawhide packs are opened, and gala dresses and line, orna ments come to light. The two young men selected to be the bearers of gifts of tobacco deck themselves for their mission and ride on in advance. A sur prise party is not in the Indian b list cf amusements; he takes his enemy unawares, but not his friend. The young men return with messages of welcome; sometimes members of the family to be visited come with them personally to conduct the party. Meanwhile, writes Alice C. Fletcher in Century, all have been busy prink ing; brushing and braiding their locks, painting their faces, and donning their best gear, the wide prairie their dressing-room, their mirrors each other's eyes. When the visiting fmrty is again cn route there is not a man or woman v ho is not gorgeous with color and the glitter of shell or feather finery. Even the children hove daubs of fresh, paint cn their plump little cheeks, while the dudes are wonderful to behold, resplen dent in necklaces, embroidered leg pings, and shirts, and with ornaments innumerable braided into their sculp locks. The visit over the Indians go back to their homes pleased and con tented, happy if they find, as may not always be the ense, that the enemy have not been at work in their absence. THE CARRIER PIGEON. An Explorer's Wife Cheered hj the Mes sage That It Ilronght. One duy a wonderful bird tapped at the -. indow of Mrs. .vunnen'a house at ChriMiauu. Instantly the window was opened und the wife of the famous arctic explorer in another moment covered the little me nger with kisses and caresses, says the Philadelphia Times. The carrier pigeon had been uway from the cottage :iu long mouths, but it hud not forgotten the way home. It brought a note from Nnusen stating that all was going 011 well with him and his expedi tion in the polar regions. Nauseu hud fastened a message to a currier pigeon and tnriird the bird loose. The frail courier darted out into the bli.ardly u'r. It flew like an nrrow over l.(ini) miles of froen waste and then sped for ward over another l.OUO miles of ocean and plains ui:d forests, unci one morning ent. nil 1 h- w indow of the waiting inis t.rei.(. and delivered the message which ahc hnd been .r. uiting so an viously. We boast, of human pluck, sagacity und en durance, but this loving little carrier pigeon, in iu homeward flight, nft r an absence of .10 month, accomplished a feat so wonderful that we can only give ourselves up to the umuzciurnt and hi. miration which must overwhelm every one when t)f marvelous Mory is told. Mrs. Nansen's p'geon is one of the won ders of the world. , SUBSTITUTE FOR CLASS. 0Utlaa BubslBDcs Kprcad on Ualvao- lied Iron Wrb.

It has been the good fortune of Hepp ner people to be again favored by a visit from Mrs. Ada Wallace Unrub, state and national organizer and lecturer for the W. 0 T. U. Her visit extended 'over Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the 20th, 21st, 22nd and 23rd ult., and all public meetings and lectures were eDjoyed each day by good andienoes, beginning with a reception given at the resideooe of Mrs. Belle Thompson on Tuesday afternoon. This was a deligbtiul occasion aud as the Qours passed in conversation, both enter tabling and instructive, aud in doing justice to the flue dinner prepared by the hostess, it was demonstrated that W. C. T. U. women although such earnest workers, are also sociable beings. The lecture Tuesday night at the M. E. ohorch, South, eubjeot "That Old Baohelor," presented that interesting but oruHty personage in several unexpected attitudes. After showing np hia unpre tentious domicile with its seldom-nsed broom and historio and antiquated dish towel, etc., a parallel was drawn between this one sided method of housekeeping and that of our venerable relative. "Uncle Sam;" and the abuses of our national administration were exhibited in so strong and true a light as to be simply astounding. On Wednesday afternoon a "Mothers' meeting" was held at the M.

SLOCUM, Mgr. tions pertaining to subjects near to the woman's heart. Wednesday night the subjeot dis cussed at the Christian churoh, "A Woman's Sphere," showed in a convino ing way that while a woman may not be excused from home duties and social amenities yet the channels of her life may be deepened and broadened into a usefulness and beauty which none but the ideal "new woman" has yet attained. Mrs. Unrub lectured again on Tuesday night at the M. . cbnrcb, the audience at this, as all other meetings, being good considering the busy season. Her argu ment on this oooaeion was most convinc ing, being an earnest appeal for perse verance in temperanoe work although the worker meet with discouragement and rebuff again and again. Many signed the pledge and beoame members of the union. The talk to girls at the Baptist church on Friday was the dosing meeting of the series. This will long be remembered by Heppner girls, and the earnest words spoken in her sweet winning manner found their way to the hearts where she badalready a warm plaoe, and those young lives were made better and bright er for all time to oome. The thanks of the W. C. T. U. are due to all who so kindly assisted to make the meetings so pleasant and profitable. The four ohurohes who opened and lighted their houses for us, the ministers and others who belpel with muoio and singing, the Gazette for numerous kindnesses are all remembered with due appreciation and Heppner W.
