ASTORIA. OREGON:
FRIDAY
..MAY" 18, 1S3?.
The East Oregonian says there are
devils in that conntry. From all ac
counts there are blackmailers there
too.
Chicago is having 25-cent base-ball,
and a sudden feeling or robust indif
ference as to what congress may do
with the rest of the tariff has spread
over the community.
It is u matter of history that in the
last seven presidential contests Illi
nois has named the president four
times. No Illinois presidential can
didate has ever yet been defeated.
' D1DNT KNOW
LOADED."
IT WAS
It will take 412 votes to nominate a
candidate at the Chicago convention,
and the Omaha Bee (Rep.) thinks that
'a great many dark horses are figur
ing where to get the odd 411."
Scientists are asserting that chol
era will visit America this summer.
But then, this class once said that
ocean telegraphy was an impossibility.
Inventors nnd base ball pitchers pay
little heed to scientists.
The Gresham movement is attract
ing attention at Washington. A con
gressman quotes senator Frye as hav
ing said that, in his opinion, if Mr.
Blaine fiually refuses to run, Judge
Gresham would be the candidate.
Govr.r.sor. Gray of Indiana, them an
whom Mr. Cleveland prefers to have
the St. Louis convention nominate
for vice-president, was an uncom
promising Republican up to February
22, 1872, when he was refused the
nomination for lieutenant-govoninr
on the Republican ticket.
Farmers' in-.titutesb.ave become an
institution in Wisconsin. Eighty-two
were held la-t year in forty-five coun
ties and 279 practical topics were dis
cussed. More than one hundred lec
turers and specialists imparted in
struction and the state appropriated
512,000 to help the thing along.

The young man fell dead!
A friend had pointed a revolver at
him.
"He didn't know it was loaded!"
Wo often hear it stated that a man
is not responsible for what he does
not know. The law presupposes
knowledge and therefore convicts the
man who excuses crime by ignorance !
"If I had only known" has often
been an unfortunate man's apology
for some evil unknowingly wrought,
but in a matter of general interest
as for instance that laudanum is a
poison, that naphtha is a deadly ex
plosive, that blood heavily charged
with a winter's accumulations of the
wasto of the system, it is one's duty
to know the" fact and the conse
quences thereof. Our good old grand-
motners Knew lor instance, tnat tne
opening of spring was the most
perilous period of the vear.
Why?
Because then the blood 'stream is
sluggish and chilled by the cold
weather, and if not thinned a good
deal and made to flow quickly and
liealthfully through the arteries and
veins, it is impossible to have good
vigor the rest of the year. Hence,
without exception, what is now
known as Warner's Log Cabin Sarsa
parilla, was plentifully made and
religiously gWen to every member of
the family regularly through March,
April, May and June. It is a matter
of record that this prudential, pre
ventive and restorative custom saved
many a fit of sickness, prolonged life
and happiness to a vigorous old age.
and did away with heavy medical
expenditures.
Mrs. Maggie Kcrchwal, Lexington.
Ivy., used Warner's Log Cabin Sarsa
parilla "for nervous sick headache of
which I had been a sufferer for years.
It has been a great benefit to'me."
Capt. Hugh Harkins, 1114 S. 15th
St., Philadelphia, J'a., says "it
purified my blood and removed the
blotches from my skin." Mrs. Aarea
Smith, Topton, Berks Co., Pa., says
she "was entirely cured of a skin dis
ease of the worst kind," by Log Cabin
Sarsaparilla. Bad skin indicates a
very bad condition of the blood.
If you would live and be well, go to
your druggist to-day and get Warner's
Log Cabin Sarsaparilla and take no
other, there's nothing like it or as
good, and completely renovate
your impaired system with this
simple, oid-lasnionea preparation oi
roots and herbs.
AVarner, who makes the famous
Safe Cure, puts it up, and that is a
guarantee of excellences all over the
known world. Take it yourself and
give it to the other members of the
family, including the children. You
will be astonished at its health-giving
and life-prolonging powers. We
say this editorially with perfect confi
dence, because we have heard good
things of it everywhere, and its name
is a guarantee that it is first claBS in
every particular.
