Is ,1 ftreat deal harder than jumping
lov!i. And yet people who have
been for year9 running down in liealth
expect to" jump back at once. It takes
years generally to make a man a cou-
hnned dyspeptic, aim ne
cannot expect to be cured
in a few days.
There is no quicker

Tried several different doctors
with but little result. I had
gotten so feeble that I was al

went and bought six bottles of

very much better and was

KfH Company Turns Water On
Echo I, line.
The old Hunt and Caviness ditch,
heading out of the Umatilla rivbr near
Kclio, has just been opened,' after an
. :.i!i?r.ops of about 10 years.
In fact, the ditch has never been in
vise, having bpen started, but never com
pleted, and a new company of Echo peo
ple begun work on it about two months
.- o, ami have just opened it up and
clurned the water through.
.Considerable work had been done on
fi ne ditch about 10 years ago, and it was
: recently revived and a new water right
vn led by the present company, and will
i:i5 extended on across Butter creek, and
v,villje the main supply for several irri
57,aton companies now being formed.
It will convey the flood waters of the
Jnialilla to the desert tracts west of
Echo, and will reclaim one of the richest
f'xxiies of land lying idle at this time in
UmiililIa county. While all the summer
sdow of the Umatilla is now claimed by
s.-'ltc ditches now in operation, it is iu
'Aqixied to use nothing but the freshe'B
In thirj ditch and its extensions, and with
whiter irrigation, reclaim all the tribu
tary land lying under it and be'weentbe
,5iutter Creek settlement and Echo.
The land covered by the ditch is a
siindy, warm loam, with a light growth
-of scrubby sagebrush, which is easily
cleared off, and when the land is once
- lea red, it will produce any crop grown
: tithe temperate climate.
This sagebrush is cleared off by drag
ging a railroad iron with horeea, several
'.vmes across the land, after which the
.. rush can be piled up and burned. It
a light growth and it will be a very
-v-ght expense to put the land in good
xj-aiition.
An extension of the ditch will reach
VXR to the mouth of Butter creek on
:;a west side, where a tract of state land
r-lll be reclaimed under the Carey act,

Dinera In Chlcniro Keatnnrnnta Ov
looking Luke Mlelilmiu Aak for
Sent at the Windows.
A New Yorker who is a frequent vis
itor here fays that to ask for a seat
overlooking the water has become an
unconscious habit with the Chicago
restaurant diner, sajs the Tribune.
"Let hiin u into a hotel or restau
rant on Michigan avenue ur one of the
high eating places from which a View
of the la.e may be had, ami the first
thing he does is to ask for a table from
which he can see the lake. If they are
all full he expresses disappointment at
iiaving to take one a few ftet away,
and if there are any women In the party
they are positively uneasy and feel
;h;mselve;- defrauded if they don't get
that location. Nine times out of ten he
will telephone to have a place by a win-cow-
on that side sa'ved for him.
"The funny part of it is," continued
the observer, "that after it is secured
no one in the party ever glances at the
water, but all go on with their talking
and eating apparently as oblivious of
the lake's existence, much more so,
than if they sat on the other side of the
room. This, and the fact that the same
people go back and forth on Michigan
avenue and ride In the Illinois Central
trains without speaking of Lake Michi
gan or giving it a glance, make it ap
pear that this request 'which the Chi
cago man invariably makes is a habit
rather than something that adds to hi
enjoyment of his dinner."

One of the great problems which is
interesting the people of the Atlantic
coast, and especially that part of the
coast lying between Casco bay, Me., and
Cape Hatteras, N. C, is the extermina
tion of the dogfish. The dogfish, say
the Boston Transcript, is a species of th
shark and has a habit of following its
prey in packs. The fish uses its spine i
a remarkable manner, bending itself
into the form of a bow, and unbending
with a powerful spring. It i caught i
r,et3 which have ben set for other
fish, and sometimes mef.sures three o
four feet in length. These fish have mul
tiplied very much of late, and as noth
ing has been done to exterminate them
the people of the Atlantic coast hav
thought it their duty to bring the mat
ter before the government in the forn:
of a petition which will be placed before
congTets. Dogfish, the sea wolves of the
ocean, Infest the Atlantic coast within
great range of latitude in schools, and
each dogfish, which weighs five pounds
wHl, it is estimated, eat and destroy
large quantity of edible food fish yearly
Not only do th dogfish eat the valuable
food fish, but they eat the food of the
same food fish, thus doing double Injury
to the nation's flRherie.
LIGHTHOUSE HEROINES.
Wherever Women Have Ileen I'u
They Have Done Their Work In
Satisfactory Manner.
The history of the lighthouse service
shows that women are thoroughly re
liable and efficient as lightkeepers. As
a rule they are not appointed to the
care of lights of the first importance
because the work would be too ardu
ous; but wherever they have been put
they have done their duty most satis
factorily. The Boston Herald tells o
many notable ieats of heroism per
formed by women lighthouse-keepers
On Lake Michigan, at the north end
of Milwaukee bay, stands a tall red
tower, which is under the charge of
Mrs. Georgia Stebbins. Its light is 122
feet above the water, and may be seen
fur 20 miles. Ten years ago there was
a frig-htful storm, and three men, upset
from sailboat, were in imminent dan
ger of drowning. Mrs. Stebbins went
to their assistance, and rescued them
at the risk of her own life.
Twenty-five miles out in the ocean,
in the pathway of the steamers from
Boston to Halifax, is a barren and
rugged island of small area, which in
stormy weather is often swept by the
waves. It is called Matinicus Rock,
and the lighthouse was formally kept
by a man named Sam Burgesa.
On one occasion in winter he had
gone away to the mainland to procure
Provisions, when the weather turned
bad and prevented him from returning.
Meanwhile, his wife, who was an in
valid, and her four daughters lived for
three weeks on one cup of corn meal
and one egg apiece per day. The sea
Bwept everything off the rock, driring
the family to the light tower; yet the
lights during all that dreadful period
were as carefully tended as usual, and
never failed.
The wife of a lighthouse-keeper of
ten acts as his assistant and perfoms
all his duties when he happens to be
away. Thus it chanced that once, dur
ing a storm, Mrs. Fowler, whose hus
band had charge of North Dumpling
lig-ht, on the Rhode Island coast, found
herself in serious trouble. There was a
thick fog and the machine for rinping
the fog bell broke. It was an accident
that might have cost many lives and
more than one ship; but the woman
was equal to the emergency. Scaling
the outside of the tower, she fastened
a rope to the bell, and rang it until the
weather cleared.
The extension of the Columbia
Southern into Willow creek basin,
has resulted in a great boom for
the town of Madras.
The output of young fish from
the Kalama hatchery was this year
0,1011,41)0 the largest or any one
year since the hatchery was started
in 1895.
Disastrous floods on the lower
Fraser river are predicted, on ac
count of the enormous, unprece
dented snowfall in the Cariboo
mountains.
A merger has been effected in
California of the Gas and Electric
Corporation, the Standard Electric
Company and th "United States
Gas and Electric Company. The
new organization controls all the
gas and electrical supply of 20
counties.
