A STRENUOUS HEN.
The Corvallia Times says, the
grittiest hen in America lives over
iu Alsea. Her right to be called a
brave hen has been tested, and no
one who reads these lines will deny
that she is ever likely to shrink
from any dutv, public or private.
She is not only a brave hen, but a
"strenuous" hen.
She is the property of one of the
Hayden brothers. They also own
a threshing machine. The latter
was taken ont of the shed for the
first time last week, and a small
field of grain was threshed, to see
that tbe machine was in good run
ning order. When the job was
finished the machine was returned
to the shed, when, to the amaze
ment of all, there in the corner ef
the separator sat the strenuous
hen. Under her was a nest of eggs
that she was endeavoring to hatch.
She had been on the nest when
the machine was taken ont. She
was there when the belts and pul
leys began to whiz, when the fan
began to sing and when the riddles
began to shake and rattle. The
wind from the fan ruflled
feathers and almost took
breath, but, like the boy on
burning deck, she staved at
her
hor
the
her
post. What her thoughts
were
when the swift cylinder began to
chew up straw cannot be guessed
She may have believed herself in
the midst of a woman's rights con
vention or she may have guessed
that tbe world was at au end
When found tbe ben was unin
jured. There was dust in her
teeth and a Bomnwhat frightened
look in her eye, but she was on
her nest. Uf the egcp all were
safe Bave one.
RANCH WANTED.
An experienced sheep man wants to
buy for cash or rent a ranch and ranee
of about 1000 acres, not too near tbe

$10 REWARD.
Stolen from Thompson's barn on tbe
tight of the Fourth, a silver-mounted
bit and bridle, $10 reward and no ques
tions asked if returned to James Jones
or to Thompson's barn.
When in pain, call on Dr. Metssler
the dentist. Don't wait for the pain
bat get him to fix your teeth before tbe
pain begins.

Health in her beaming eyes, health in
her glowing cheek, health in her merry
laugh. Yet country air and country
bours can't save ner irom we common
experience of women an experience
which dulls the eye, pales tne cneex,
and turns the laugh to a sigh. Womanly
ills come to almost all. nut lor tnese
ills there is help and healing in Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It regu
lates the periods, stops unhealthy drains,
cures inflammation, ulceration ana ie-
nutle weakuess. It makes weak women
strong, sick -women well.
"Miss Ella Sapp, of Jamestown, Guilford Co.,
N. C, writes: "I hart suffered three years or
more at monthly periods. It seemed as though
I would die with pain in my hack and stomach.
I could not stand without fainting; had given
up all hope of ever being cured, when one of
my friends Insisted upon my trying Dr. Pierce's
Favorite prescription, witn nut utile laun i
tried It. and before I had taken half a bottle I
felt better had better appetite and slept better.
Now I am huppy to say f am entirely cured, and
all done in two months' time, when all other
medicines had failed to do any good at all."
Biliousness is cured by the use of Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

recently camped at Heppner with
his outfit of 30 people, 100 horses
and 32 dogs. He put his horses
over nigh in Tom Morgan's corral
and bought $1.50's worth of hay
for them, bo they each had three
mouthfuls.
Jim said he was going to tbe

threw them at the roots of their
