V 1 . Often leads to pov erty. No real woman ever sold her heart for the luxuries of life. But many a woman who has gladly faced poverty tor the man she loved, may well doubt her wisdom when pain becomes the mate of poverty. If she were rich, she thinks, she could find a way of cure. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is within the reach of every one. It lifts the burden of pain which weighs down those who suffer from womanly diseases. It establishes regularity, dries weaken ing drains, heals inflammation and ul ceration and cures female weakness. You have my heartfelt thanks for your kind advice to me writes Mrs. Geo.

LOSI ITS LAND. 4r iMiii Gelling " Surplus of Forest Reserve. Washington', Kept, ti. When one fourth of the area of the State of Oregon, including pome nf its most valuable Sands, has been withdrawn from all form of settlement and entry, with the inten tion of ultimately making these with drawals permanent, it is time for the people of that great commonwealth to manse and consider the situation which confronts them. Such a time is the present. Such an issue l as been raided. Its settlement is trie question of but a few years. Are the people of Oregon to be heard in their own behalf ? Are their wishes to be respected, or are the fancifs of theorists to be carried out regardless of the demands of an educated and en lightened public? Are the people of the state to have a voice in the disposal of its vast public domain, or are their demands to be set aside, their protests unheeded, their requests totally ignored? These questions must soon be answered, fiie crisis is fst approaching. The re sult is purely problematical. It is no exaggeration to say that one fourth of the land area of Oregon has leen segregated, by order of the Secre tary of the Interior, and is today beyond the reach of the settler and the home- seeker. There are, in effect, in Oregon at the present time, ten distinct with drawals made for forestry purposes, on the recommendation of the Bureau of forestry, under (jifford Pinchot. These withdrawals contain approximately 4t4 full townships, or lO.GKO.oGO acres. Add to this the present area of the Cascade reserve. 4,436,120 acres, and the figures closely approach one-fourth of the area of the Btate. The state's area is (11,277, 440 acres. Unfortunately, the exact acreage of the forest reserve withdrawals are not definitely known, but the figures are conservative. For all practical in tents and purposes, it may be said that one fourth of the area of the state is ither now included in a permanent forest reserve, or is temporarily with drawn from all settlement and disposal, endiDg investigations to determine what portion of the withdrawn lands eaall be converted into permanent re serves. A careful and unprejudiced study of the manner io which the vast with drawals have been made in Oregon leads to the conclusion that there has been undue haste, that there has been too stances, there has been ample justifica tion for making temporary withdrawals, but in few instances has there been warrant for withdrawing such large areas as now stand segregated from the public domain. Too much reliance often has been placed on recommenda tions of men whose judgment has not been the best. These men are, for the most part, representatives of the Bureau of Forestry. They pride themselves on their knowledge of all problems pertain ing to the forests, and are it must be said m truth, and frankly inclined to jelieve that their knowledge is superior to that of other men. Granted that this is no, some of thepe foresters lack practicability ; they are, like most theorists, narrow in their view, seeing only one sidn to the question. They have not stopped to consider that other interests than those of the lumber man and the irrigator are involved. Tney do not duly regard the intrests of the ttockmen, and in this they gravely err. Proceeding on the theory that the future development of Eastern Oregon depends almost entirely upon lumbering and agriculture, the course of the Bureau of Forestry is amply justified, but this Burean has almost, if not totally, ignored what, is now and always will be by fur the most important pursuit of the region east of the Cascade Mountains. There is no intention to belittle the importance of the Bu-eau of Forestry, nor to cast Blurs upon its good work But the Bureau is handicapped by be ing in too great favor in the present Administration. It is really the pet vnronii nf the Government. It receives liberal appropriations ; it is almost un restricted in its field of operations, and in the extent ot its work, but more than nil else, its recommendations are given more weight than they properly deserve Thee judgment of representatives of this bureau is taken in preference to the judgment of more experienced men in other lines, and other bureaus are com pelled, to a degree, to yield to the wishes of the foresters. There is to little re straint placed upon the Bureau of For estry: it is the "edministratien's spoil- el child." an renor ted. Mrs. Hunter is at her home in Scotland. According to Mr. Hunter, Mrs. Hun ter, who he says n an enthusiastic yachtswoman and a member of the Clyde Corinthian Club, has had ambitions ever since the Valkyrie was lost off Hunter's Quay, Scotland, to have a try for the America's cup, ani she has, he says, set aside 20,000 for that purpose. Her idea is to act as ber own skipper and have an amateur crew. Mr. Hunter says they have no inten tion of interfering with Sir Thomas Lipton, and that a challenge will be sent only in case the Irish Knight does not challenge again. In the event of a boat being built, it will be by the Messrs. Denny, of the Clyde. Mr. Hunter says he once worked for Sir Thomas Lipton and made his money out of building operations. i . j n The First National Grocery y Can be found on Main street and is the place to buy : : : : : : Groceries, Provisions, GlasswareTin ware and Furnishing Caoods These Goods are well adapted to either City or Country Trade : : : Staple Fancy Groceries Fine Feas Coffees Good Goods...

The Morning Post publishes a letter from its Constants nople correspondent, in which he dis cusses the lieirut affair, aDd the position of the American missionaries in Asia Minor. He says : "Things have arrived at a crisis. The United States must either insist upon the Porte listening to its representatives regarding American converts or drop the missionaries altogether. The latter course is naturally impossible, and the sending of a squadron has great sig nificance as showing a determination on the part of America to take an active part in the Turkish questian. "One result of this Btep will probably be to induce the Sultan to raise his representative at Washington to the rank of Ambassador so that the United States can be equally represented here. At present, America is at a decided dis advantage in this respect compared with the other firBt-clasB powers. "Nobody can quite foresee the ulti mate attitude of the United States, but it is almost certain that her weight will incline on the side of the Christian against the Turk. At the same time, as as matter of importance to Great Britain, America is almost bound to oppose the decent of Russia on the Dardanelles, be cause in religious matters the Turk is more tolerant than the Russian."
