It was a service of unusual power. Many aald it was the best service we have hitherto had. The sermons this week are on "The Devil." Exceptional Interest Is being manifested. The two addres ses we have already had, 'Satan's Origin" and "Satan's Work,- have been a revelation to everyone who hag heard them. No person can afford to miss these addresses.

According to those who are conver lant with operationson the river, the grade has been found too great for practical purposes, and other difficulties such as danger of fresh its, and the narrowness of the can yon, are said to be bearing factors .n the estimation of the engineers. It is said to have been the intention it the engineers to survey a route .'rom the head of the south fork of the Walla Walla river to the' head jf the Salmon river, and plans for a two-mile tunnel were considered. It .s reported the situation for the tunnel Is ideal, but other unfavorable conditions are expected to cause the ibandonraent of that Idea. Where the Surveyors Are.

Men from the Garden ol 3den, in Enterprise Wednesday, say Ranger Roy Smith spent the night 1 few days ago in the camp of the North Coast surveyors on the head waters- of Little Salmon, this side of the Blue Mountains. HOW 8YMPTOMS MAY MISLEAD. Who Is there of us all, rich 01 poor, learned or otherwise, who has iiot at some time or the other read a booklet issued by the proprietors of some patent cure-all? Who has i'ead such a booklet almost with ter ror, realizing' that we had most, if lot all of the symptoms described, and that we must therefore be af flicted with practically all of the dis cases known to man? And is' It not plain that there is in this a direct lesson to sufferers 'rom any cause whatsoever? II symptoms are so general, If you may have the same ones in such a variety of diseases, Is It not appar ent that they must be but a pool guide by which to decide what is your trouble? And ts 4t not chief lj with symptoms that doctors have been accustomed to deal? The other way is the way of the osteopathic physician. He takes due account of symptoms, of course, and gives directions as to diet and ways of life with as much skill as any other, at least. But his primary method Is to make an examination that will reveal the defect In the structures of the body that has in terrupted the flow of the blood and r the nerve force and thus made !he trouble possible. He attacks the cause of the symptoms directly. In stead of the condition, and that if why he Is getting better results. Osteopathic Advance. A man who has kept count of the number of kisses exchanged with his wife since their union consents to Us publication as follows: First year, 35,500; second year, 16,000; third year, 3.650; fourth year, 120; fifth year, 2.
