Mrs. Madison was unquestionably the most DODular woman that has ever presided over the social life of the executive mansion. She was extreme ly beautiful in person and gentle and courteous in manner. Consummate tact made good her lack of liberal education. Madison first met her when he wa3 a member of congress at Phil adelphia, and, with Aaron Burr, board ed at the house of her father, Mr. Payne. She was then the widow Todd. The future president promptly fell In love with her. But having some doubts about her mental qualities, he one day handed her a book to read and asked her to give him her opinion of it. She gave the book to Burr with the re quest that he would write a letter, for her to codv. This he did with his visual brilliance; and Madison, on re ceiving the note, was fully convinced that his lady-love's intellect was equal to her beauty. He at once offered him self and was accepted.

The Astrlan has received the fol lowing letter from Mr. A. J. Johnson,1 the Smith's Point florist, who is in charge of our section of the forestry exhibit at the World's Fair: "I feel ery proud over the result of my work last spring, in collecting the Oregon forestry exhibit I have received from the World's Columbian Exposition the highest awards for Oregon for a com prehensive and instructive display of valuable commercial woods lndiglnous to our state, and also for a complete classification of common and botanical nemos. I h ive In addition received an award for the Young's River Pulp mill at Astoria, for spruce wood paper pulp. This I am sure the company did not expect last spring when I ordered a ball of pulp from them, but I made up my mind that Astoria should have something to show from the Worlds Fair. I regret very much the slowness of the Oregon people in regard to pre paring themselves for this great ex hibition. Oregon could Just as well have surprised the world with its won derful resources and carried away a large number of awards. But I must no complain, for Clatsop county, any how, has done well' The annual meetinsr of "The Nor .voiriaii Evangelical church" will be held at the church building Monday October 2d, 7 a. m.

The odds are in favor of ho gernw, if our liver Is inactive and our blood impure. What is needed, most is an increase in our germ-lighting strength. To do this success fully you need to put on healthy flesh, rouse the liver to vigorous action, so ft will throw off these gornu, and purify the blood so that there will be no " weak spot," nor soil for germ-growth. We claim for Dr. Pierce's Goldon Medical Discovery, that it does all this in a way pecu liar to iteelt. It is the development of gen erations of medical thought it has stood the test of a quarter of a century of cure. That is why the makers can guarantee it In every trouble caused by torpid liver or impure blood, if the " Discovery " fails to bonofit or cure, your money is refunded.
