superiority in leavening power, keeping properties, pu. '
excellence. This verdict has been given by the best )7
ever assembled for such a purpose, backed by the recommend- '
ation of the Chief Chemist of tile United States Department
of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, who made an elabor
ate examination and test of all the baking powders. This
is pre-eminently the highest authority on such matters in

This verdict conclusively settles the question and

superior in every way to any other brand.

of green fruit. With a good crop next
year, Oregon and Washington should
produce 100 carloads of dried prunes.

The deceased was aged 74 yrs., 3 mos., 23

and two children, both married, a daughter
Mrs. Twardell, and a son, David Hare,

Weep not that her toils are done, ;

When our work, like hers, is done.
Then we will yield with gladness.

And rejoice In the sweet assurance

Parents, take comfort in the sWcet strains
of the poets, who said:
Alas! How changed that lovely Cower
Which bloomed and cheered my heart;
Fair, fleeting comfort of an hoar,
How soon we're called to part!
That once loved form, how cold and dead,
Each mournful thought employs; .
I weep, my earthly comforts fled,.
And withered all, my joys
Why should I vex my heart, or fast:
ito more he'll vtsitme; " ' " -
My soul will mount to htm at last,
And there my child I'll see.

It is nice not to bo a mason or a saloon
keeper, .
Waterloo feels the effect of the recent
great 'walkover for the 'Publicans in the
East, aud the representatives of the g. o. p.
here walkaroundas if the millennium were
at hand. From this it is inferred that at
the town election in December the offices
will bo tilled with their clau from mayor t.
dog-pelter. .
A society for prevention of cruelty to ani
mals .should organized. This should be
done to protect citizensfrom bebiginvci.sled
into doing what their conscience tolls them
is wrong, viz: Aiding and abetting a man
in his idleness. When agent or lady does
nothing bat trail around and work iheir
jaw, and will not labor for support when
work is oH'ered, should not bo fostered in a
community to the extent of furnishing su, -plies
in any manner, shatie or lorin. V. e
put our name on everything that coinei
along, but draw the line at tombstones and
cliarity-if that kind of work be charity.
All-Hollow-E'en was celebrated here on
Nov. 1 by the boys. The night before the
small houses received their attentions and '
it was truly comical to view their wretched
faces as with hammer and saw they wtnt
from house to house-after a talk with the
marshal and repaired the havoc created.
Tin's may be fun for'an Orcgonian boy, bit
we did a little different in Georgia.
In answer to a letter in a feminine lumj
Inquiring "why so many men and boyi
congregate around country post-Oilices" we
will state. TI10 only answer we can give is
that they have a contract of wearing out
the door sill by roosting upon it and are in
a hurry to draw their salary and attention
toward their angular frames. They may
also be' waiting for a new brand of chewing
tobacco to come out at least a few samples
for they never get anything else through
the mail, as their creditors have long a : 1
ceased to dun them, a too expensive luxury
at 2 cents per dun. if this answer is not
sufficient, get some one else to try, is the
advice of Jaooeiis.
