A GOOD THING For Women to Remember. That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham they are communicating with a woman a wo man whose experience in treating woman's ills is greater than that of any living physi cian male or female. A woman can talk freely to a woman when it is revolting to relate her private troubles to a man besides, a man does not understand simply because he is a man. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing full well that they should have immediate assist ance, but a natural modesty impels them to shrink from exposing- themselves to tbe questions ana prooaDie examinations or even their family physician. It is unnec essary. Without money or price you can consult a woman, whose knowledge from actual experience is greater than any local physician living. The following invitation is freely offered; accept it in the same spirit: Women suffering from any form of fe male weakness are invited to freely com municate with Mrs Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered "by women only, thus has been established the eternal conndence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken and has induced more than 100.000 sufferers to write her for advice during tbe last four montns. out ot tne vast volume oi exper fence which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that win neip your case, line asks nothing in return except your gooa-wm. ana ner aavice nas reuevea thousands, hurely, any woman, ncn or poor, is verv foolish if she does not take ad vantage of this generous offer of assistance.

(Office of Downing, Hopkins k Co., Chicago Board of Trade Brokers, 711-714 Chamber Of Com. starve Building, Portland, Oregoui The past week has been a very quiet tine in the grain trade, with narrow fluctuations. Europe took 0,800,000 bnshols of our wheat, and from other sountries about 8,000,000 bushels. A dispatch to the London Times Irom Buenos Ayres says that there have been good rains in the south and a ilight rainfall In the north, so that the Harvest is now secure. It is estimated that 1,000,000 tons of wheat will be weported. Broomhall, a commercial authority it Liverpool, cabled that a special gent investigated crop conditions in Kusssia and pronounced the spring wheat crop in the important southeast district to yield not over 60 per cent of lust year. The teceipts of spring at Minneapo lis by the flouring mills have been very large, running as high as 1,100 oars in one day. The American visible supply inoreased 1,138,000 buBhols, and now totals 23,030,000 bushels. A year ago today the visible increased 2,411,000 bushels and totalled 64,858,000 bushels. Regarding the fall wheat. Mnoh re lief in the drought regions has been ex perienced by quite exteudud rains, which in many places were fairly lib eral, and in others less important. The effect has been to revive cheerfulness and confidence where the seriousnetts of drought conditions was having a dis couraging influence. These rains have not accomplished all that is needful, but it they be soon followed by more moisture there will be much done to overcome the drawbacks whloh have been attending autumn seeding opera tions. It is yet too early to offer an explicit opinion as to the probable relative area of autumn sown wheat, but it now teems practically conclusive that there will be shown considerable gain over last year. It is in evidence that Oc tober sowings of wheat if followed with ordinary favorable conditions may be expected to result well, and in fact the wheat sown as late as the middle ol November has possibilities favoring a good yield. The rains have had the effect to weaken the market sentiment to some extent, and wheat values have receded. Other influences have also had mors or less bearing in the same direction. The large foreign demand which served in an important dogreeito stimulate the advancing tendency of values some weeks ago lias been modified, as might have been expected as a natural result to follow that abnormal activity.

But autumn changes come, and we cannot be too self-content not to f "iml aRaiimt what autumn brltiK'. It is the changeful tem perature of midday warmth and night and morning chill, from the dampness of lws or vapors cast adrift on eaNtern winds. With the brrntn of such comes back to very many old time physirnl troubles of pains and aitlies, rheumatism, neuralgia, soreness and stillness. This is a crop not spoken of in a farmer's almanac, lint it liiunt be cured for, else it will lay waste and grow misery. Ht.

There is no bodily pain it won't relieve, and to the whole group of rtieumatlo pains, It Is a certain and specific cure. Let nut the bounties that have been reaped lie marred by misery and pain. 8t.
