Hickory Hark Cough Remedy, made by The Hickory Bark Remedy Co., of Salem, Ore., guaranteed to be pure; guaranteed to cure your cough, or money refunded. Ouat ' anteed to make a friend of you. ' For sale by the II illsboro Pharmacy aud first class dealers everywhere. The Milton Fruitgrowers' Union has made a big coup in the prune business. A sale has been made to Riggs Saxton, of Uoise, of 300 tons of prunes at the rate of cents per crate, netting, the growers about $24 per ton. The prunes have already been contracted for, The Forest Grove authorities are still following up their effort to put the lid on. V. A. Iklliuger, who was arrested, first, for selling iiquor without Lcense, was fined $25 and costs on a plea of guilty. This was paid. Another suit was at once in stituted against C. L. Large, aud it came to trial Wednesday. When iu court ISelliuger stated that he was merely agent for Large in running the place and this led to the later arrest. Attorney-General Crawford has given an. opinion to the State Board of Normal School Regents that the r appropriations for normals could only be expended lor maintenance and repairs," and no part of the money could be utilized for the con struction of new buildings. This is for the especial benefit of Presi dent Mulkey, of the Ashland nor , rial, who urged the immediate need 'of some new buildings to accommo date the growth and demands of that institution. The grandmothers of the old Dutch Dunkard tamilies of Western ' Pennsylvania have made aud used "Hickory Hark Cough Remedy" and reared their families on it for a hundred years. Now you can buy it of your dealers. Ask for it. and use it, leause it is pure; because it will stop your cough; because it is the lest cough remedy made today. Try it. For sale by the H illsboro Pharmacy and all dealers every where. the fair as a special attraction, ex eels auy other form of outing to be found anywhere. Tea Cents A Spool. There is nothing too mean for triKt mnnonolv to do. It steals dimes, nickles. pennies. It steals from the poor principally and from the poorest as greedily and remorse- ImcsIv a from the well to do. If when Tom Hood wrote "The Song of the Shirt" the modern trust had been in existence, he might have given the world a complementary song, one as eloquent in wrath as this was in pity. Spool cotton, as the commercial term is, that is, cotton thread ou spools, is to be advanced to 6 or 7 cents in price to merchants, so that it will have to be retailed at 10 cents sdooI. If car fare were to be raised from 5 to 10 or even 7 cents, or if beer per glass were raised to the same amount, we should hear a great-to-do about it, the people would not stand it that is the only reason it is not done; but the thread trust thinks it can sneak in a raise of spool cotton that will double the price to the consumers, sweatshop women included, and nobody will notice or say much about it. Pen nies pilfered by millions are good money to the trusts. The women can't vote, but they can influence many votes, and we I should think they would begin to rise in warfare against the trusts. The thread case is only a little one, to most women, but it is only one of many. The trusts are robbing them with every breath they draw, and in almost every thing they see, touch, taste, or handle. The cotton thread Industry is practically monopolized by a single concern. It raises the price, with out any justification, so that retail merchants will have to double the price of the spools, the trust getting whatever share of the raise it claims, and tempting the merchants with the chance of a cent or two more profit per spool. If only rich women were concerned it would not be worth mentioning, except as to the principle involved, but to thou sands of garment-working slaves an increase of 5 cents a spool is really serious. That is as much as some of them can afford for a meal. Think of those hollow-cheeked. sad-eyed, hopeless women, and then lorm an opinion of the spool cotton trust. Portland Journal. Progress.

A very enjoyable time 1a reported from the League ice cream iocial which waa held on Fisher's lawn last Satur day evening, however aa tlie evening air waa not very tropical there waa not a very great demand for ice cream.

Aunt Sally. Juat receive f. A fine line of glaaa, water and berrr aet at U. II. Greer 'f. A writer in an exchange touches upon delicateaiihjiH't when heaaya : "If aoue day the newspaper man ahould print the contents of hia waste banket there would probably be a riot. There would cer tainly be trouble in many homes, arrests in some directions, shot guns in others, troubU nil around, But the patron never sees the waste banket. He only glances at the beautifully printed pages, complains if one letter iu fifty ia upside down, grolws bis disappointment if one name in five hundred has happened to go wrong, kicks because his communica tion, signed "Taapayer," lias been con densed into respectable KnglMi. frowns because the editor didn't take his advice about publicly warning hia neighbor against throwing more melon in the al ley, and la generally disgruntled, not ao much at what he finds as at what he (ails to find. He knows his share of the waste basket, but if be could have one look at the contributions made to that receptacle by bis neighbors and friends he would thank God for the existence of a man with sutlieient intelligence and courage not to print all that he knows, and to temper even that w hich be does print." W. P.. Dillard, of St. Helens, sus tained a loss which he estimates as at least $1000 as a result of an at tempt to distroy a nest of yellow jackets that infested his orchard, The nest was in a stump aud Mr. Dillard set fire to it in full faith that he would accomplish the dis truction of the pests. He, as he thought, put the fire out, but found ' the yellow jackets as busy as ever. It appears the fire was not entirely extinguished and a brisk breeze fanned it into a flame, distroying 25 bearing apple trees, a number of , English walnut and a lew tons of hay. The jury has acquitted William D. Haywood for the murder of ex Governor Frank Steunenlerg. The verdict is a surprise to most persons who have followed the trial closely but as the case has lcen decided by twelve Idaho nun who for forty days listened to the evidence, the people will accept the verdict with out question. It is certain however thnt the judge's charge had much to do with the decision and the ver dict of "ut guilty" is a genuine surprise to both the plaintiff and defendant. Luck Came Hia Way. An automobile dashed along the couuiry roao. turning a curve it came suddenly upon a young man and a weak, sick looking dog be side him. The dog was diiectly in tront or the motor car. The chaufleur sounded his horn, but the dog did not move- until it was struck. After that it did not move, The automobile stopped and one of the men got out and came tor. ward. He had once paid a farmer 10 lor killing a calf that belonged 10 anoiner tarraer. This time he was wary. "Was that yourdog" -Yes." "Looks as if we'd killed him " "Certainly looks so."
