Gladness Gomes With a better understanding' of the transient nature of the many phys ical ills, which vanish before proper ef forts gentle efforts pleasant efforts rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis ease, but simply to a constipated condi tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt ly removes. That is why itjis the only remedy with millions of families, and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that it'is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating the org-ans on which it acts.. J,t is therefore all important, in order to get its bene ficial effects, to note when you pur chase, that you have the genuine arti cle, which is manufactured by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by all reputable druggists. If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely jSed and gives most general satisfaction.

ETC. i Bow Napoleon Conducted Himself Inrloc Exile '; Elba was an Island divided against Itself, there being both Imperialists and royalists among Its inhabitants, and a Considerable party which desired Inde pendence. By representing that Na poleon had brought with him fabulous sums the Austrian and English com missioners easily won the Elbans to a fervor of loyalty for their new emperor. Before nightfall of the 4th the court was established, and the new adminis tration began its labors. Having mas tered the resources and needs of , his pigmy realm, the Emperor began to de ploy all his powers, mending the high ways, fortifying the strategic points, and creating about the nucleus of four hundred guards .which were sent from Fontainebleau an efficient little army of sixteen hundred men. His expenses were regulated to the minutest detail bothathomeahd abroad; the salt works and Iron mines, which were the bul warks of Blban prosperity, began at once to Increase their output, and taxa tion was regulated with scrupulous nicety. By that superemlnent virtue of the French burgher; good management, the Island was made almost independ ent of the remnants of the Tuilerles treasure (about Ave million francs; which Napoleon had brought from France. The same powers which had swayed a world operated with equal success in a sphere almost microscopic by comparison. N Before long the Princess Borghese, separated soon after her marriage from her second husband, and banished since 1810 from Paris for impertinent conduct to the Empress, came, accord ing to promise, to be her brother's com panion, and Madame Mere, though dis tant in prosperity, came likewise to soothe her son in adversity. The In tercepted letters of the former prove her to have been at least as loose in her life at Elba as ever before, but they do not afford a sufficient basis for the Scandals concerning her relations with Napoelon which were founded upon them, and Industriously circulated at the court of Louis XVIII. The shame ful charge has no adequate foundation of any sort. Napoleon's econmomlcs were render ed not merely expedient, but Impera tive, by the fact that none of the mon eys from France werS forthcomin which had been promised In his treat with the powers. After a short stay Roller frankly stated that In hie opin ion they would never be paid, and de parted. The Island swarmed with Bourbon spies, and the only conversa tion in which Napoleon could indulge himself unguardedly was with Sir Neil Campbell, the English representative, or with the titled English gentlemen who gratified thelr curiosity by visiting him. During the summer heats when the court was encamped on the height at Marclana for refreshment, there ap peared a mysterious lady with her child. Both were well received and kindly treated, but : they withdrew themselves entirely from the public gate. Common rumor said it was the Empress; but this was not true; it was the Countess Walewska, with the son she had borne to her host, whom she still adored.. , They remained but a few days, and departed as mysteriously as they had come. , Base females thronged the precincts of the imperial residence, openly strug gling for Napoleon's favor as they had so far never dared to do; success too frequently attended their efforts. But the one woman who should have been at his side was absent. It Is certain that she made an honest effort to come, and apartments were prepared for her reception In the little -palace at Porto Ferrajo. Her father, however, thwart ed her at every turn, and finally she was a Virtual prisoner at Schonbrunn. So manifest was the restraint that her grandmother, Caroline, Queen of the Two, Sicilies, cried out In Indignation, "If I were In the place of Maria Louisa I would tie the sheets of my bed to the window frame and flee." Committed ; to the charge of the elegant and subtle ' Nelpperg.a favorite chamberlain whom she had first seen at Dresden, he plied her with such insidious wiles that at last her slender moral fiber was entire-; ly broken down and she fell a victim ' to bis charms. As late as August Napol eon received Impassioned letters from j her; then she grew formal and cold; at last," under Metternlch's urgency, she j ceased to write at all. Her French at tendant, Meneval,' managed to convey J 'the whole sad story to her husband, j but the Emepror was Incredulous, and hoped against hope until December. Then only he ceased from his Incessant and urgent appeals. Century. An African Salt Works. Karembwe's1 is one of the salt-mak- I lng villages; a sandy clay is dug out of the marshes, ana placed in grass funnels; water ' poured on this , dis solves the salt; this solution trickles through the green filter Into a trough, after which It is boiled and strained, and a fine.large-crystal salt is obtain ed. It is a great trade in this part of the world. All villages make salt, which is put up in loads about five Inches In diameter by four feet long. All these people, the Waitawa, are very polite; most of them hall you with, "Mornln',"; they do not seem able to manage the "good." Century.

Well, I am not surprised at that. I hardly know myself, and yet here I am full of life and vigor. Look at my arms, round, strong and healthy. The color of my cheeks Bbow life and animation. " So spoke Mrs. Hadix, wife of Rev. E. Hadix, of Plaoerville, California, and "what has produced this wonder ful change from alomst death to health ful, aotive life?" "Well, I will tell you it was Pink Pills for Pale People. You will remem ber that for years I Walked the streets a living skeleton emaciated weak, and a complete wreck. My flesh oolor less, ' my nerves unstrung. I had no blood. If my flesh was punctured, a thin pink stain was all that could be produced. My physioians said there was no hope for me. My friends de spaired of my reoovery. I was sent to Sacramento, where three of the most eminent physicians diagnosed my case, but they shook their heads and -said they oould not help me, and they re fused to take my money as they oould do me no good. "My husband was sent for to say the last good-bye. When I lay on my conch to rest I felt as though 1 was sinking, down, down, down. I oould not sleep, neither oould I rest. When all hope from physioians was ' gone, I determined to try what virtue there was in Pink Pills for Pale People. I commenced taking them and soon be gan to improve. I continued their use with the result that to-day I . am fully recovered to health apd happiness, and this in less than six1, months from the time I commenced their use. All hail to Pink Pills for Pale .People." J. C. Stephens, another resident of Plaoerville, said: "I was afflicted with rheumatism for more than twenty years, and only with the greatest diffi culty was I able to walk to my plaoe of business, my hands were so stiff and swollen that I could scarcely hold any thing in them. When driving my team, oould not hold my whip. I saw in the San Francisoo Call that a friend of mine bad been cured of rheu matism by using Pink Pills. I com menced using them with the result that I am completely cured." . Mrs. J. Q. Bailey was afflicted for a long time with kidney trouble and oould not rest nights. She said: "I had heard so much about the wonders that Pink Pills performed that I con cluded to try them. I commenced taking them, and found immediate re lief, sleep nicely, and in every way am greatly improved." ' W. F. Fairohild is a drugigst- doing business in Plaoerville. ' He says he has been selling Pink Pills for Pale People for several years, and that bis customers speak very highly of them, and sales have been more than doubled within the last six months, especially since the wonderful reoovery of Mrs. Hadix, whose case was considered hope less, and whose reoovery by the use of Pink Pills was considered Almost a miracle. : The reputation of these pills is fully established for doing what they promise.

A Schilling & Company Ban rrancisce 32 Narrow Escape of Mrs. Dickenson From Being Burled Alive. Special Correspondence. ;.-. Portland, Or., Nov. 2.-In my letter last week, in reference to the clubs of Portland, whilst I, by no means, mean); to give a complete olub directory, in mentioning the more prominent, as I did, it was accidental on my part that I neglected to speak of the road Club, or, more properly speaking, the Good Roads Club. . ' It I be not mistaken, that olub hae the largest list of members of any olub here. ' The olub occupies the mansion of the late Banker Dekum. The house, on a quarter blook, has been remodeled, and a bowling alley has been built apart. The rest of the whole block ii a beautiful garden, where lawn parties are given in mild and dear weather, bunting six feet high being stretobed about the garden to keep those from seeing who have not paid to get in. The objeot of the club is. to encour age good roads, but its ' pursuit seems rather to be sociability. The olub has aroused some interest in good roads, but I fear that this has been somewhat ameliorated by a reoent city ordinance permitting bicycles on the sidewalks, provided the riders dismount Within thirty feet of any pedestrian approach ingwhich the riders do not do with a zealous fidelity to their own elegant comfort that is worthy of a better oause. You'll find the advertisement of Olds & King on this page quite inter esting this week. As I told you in another letter, 1 know Olds very well, and any thing he says in an advertise ment is quite as good as the best man's bond. The house says it will offer some unusual bargains, so as to draw the attention of your readers, and start up business communication. Their oatalogue may be had free for asking on a postal. Be sure of the number, 803 Washington' street, and . watch for the 'ad!' weekly from now until Christmas. ' , Before now, you have doubtless read of the recovery of Mrs. Dickenson, at Mount Angel, Oregon, from apparent death, October 18, as the undertaker was about to fasten the lid on the coffin preparatory to taking the oorpse(?) to the church where funeral services were to be held. The lady died (?) Friday. The funeral was set for Sunday after noon. The little church at Mt. Angel was filled with friends Sunday after noon, the pall spread for the coffin, and the minister ready to offloiate. After waiting over half an hour for the ar rival of the funeral procession, a mes senger was sent to disoover the cause of the delay. Soon the information was returned that Mrs. Diokenson bad returned to life, 1 as above related. These facts I obtained from the min ister myself, who is a worthy, reliable and truthful gentleman. That was truly a narprw escape from ' being buried alive. My present information is that there are hopes of Mrs. Dick enson's permanent reoovery. Even bard times help us some. A reoent heavy failure here of. .7. M. Moyer & Co. , bringing with it the fail ure of the Albany Woolen Mills, has thrown an immense stock of men's and boyr' olothing on the market, made of pure Oregon wool, at exaotly wholesale cost. State Senator-elept Ben Selling, as assignee, has cut prices to exact cost to raise money at onoe. So, if you happen to want clothing, suits, over coats, boys' olothing, at actual whole sale oost, address Assignee, J.' M. Moyer & Co., Third and Oak streets, and my word for it, Senator Selling will quote you at actual cost, for brand new goods, newest patterns and latest styles. ; The rainy season has about set in, and not for years have Portlanders had a better opportunity of experiencing the benefits of the excellent new street pavements that I have recently referred to in this correspondence. Heretofore, walking in the business center of this city, during the rainy season, has been, I might say, almost perilous; certainly it, was experimental, for no man could tell when he put his foot down in the sloughs between the rows of buildings, whether he would rest bis sole on a stump or in the bottom of a sunken mudaoow. The new streets add to comfort and give impetus to trade at the stores, which amply repays the out lay for good paving. ; : -h An interview with H. W. Scott, editor of the Oregonian, and with Sylvester Pennoyer, mayor of Portland, may ap pear in my next letter, after the elec tion, if the interviews oan.be had. .Ah! ,if both of them would only speak their inmost minds on the result of the elec tion, it would, prove interesting if not instructive reading. EZEKIEL. Two Shooting Affrays. Cincinnati, Nov. 2. There were two shooting affrays last night. In the first one a drunken Swede was ejected from the Salvation Army bar racks, whereupon be shot James Mar ray, but not dangerously, and then ishot a little girl in the wrist.
