there is inspiration, and to those who

A Startling Test,
To save a life, Dr. T. G. Merritt, of
North Mehoopany.Pa., made a startling
test resulting in a wonderful cure. He
writes: "A patient was attacked with
hemorrhages, caused by ulceration of
the stomaclk. I had often found Elec
tric bitters excellent for acute stomach
and liver troubles so I prescribed them.
The patient gained from the first, and
has not had an attack in 14 months."
Electric bitters are positively guaran
teed for dyspepsia, indigestion, constipa
tion and kidney troubles. Try them.

Glad to Get Back.
Charles B. Prathar and wife, who
went East with the- Grand Army ex
cursion, last September, to Washington
City, returned on Sunday's afternoon
train. They have been living in Wash
ington City all this time. Charley
thought by being close to the pension
ottice he could get an increase of pen
sion, which be well deserves, batfouud
that pensions cannot be any more
readily obtained there than here, 8,000
miles from the pension office. The
pension otlicials turn a deaf ear to the
applicaut who is there to plead bis own
case, and cannot be tuduced to act on a
claim out of its regular order.. Charley
says that after the crowds that attend
ed the Grand Army encampment left
Washington the city seemed deseried,
and there was no work to be bad for
an old man like him. With only his
pension of S a month for an income
he found it pretty close picking. Occa
sionally he got a job of carrying in
coal, for w-hicb he would get about 35
cents for half day's work. Finally
he went to peddling boquetsof flow
ers, and things began to dime bis way.
He bad struck the "tide in the affairs
of men which" if it dldfl't lead him
on to fortune and to fame got him the
wherewith to get back to Oregon,
where he feels satisfied he lielongs, and
from whence no promise of a pension
claim, or any other claim, will ever en
t'ce him. At peddling flowers he made
hh much as $9 in one week. As soon
as he could scrape enough together to
bring him and his wife buck to Oregon,
he shook the dust of the capital city,
with its cold-blooded ofllceholders,
from his brogans and gladly boarded
the train that bore him to the West.
Both Charley and his wife are awfully
glad to get hack to Hood River. They
still have 40 acres of land on Rock
creek, on which they will make their
home. He will prosecute his claim for
au increase of pension from his home
here and never again desire to wander
anrong strangers.
Joe Wilson has something up his
sleeve. He will let you know what it is
next week.

ONLY EYE TESTER.
I wish to let the people of Hood River know that I have the only
Eye Tester on the Columbia river between The Dulles slid Portland.
Come to me if you need spectacles, and have your eyes tested so
that you ean be suited in glasses. If your eyes are not both the
same, it is sometimes necessary to have lenses ground, cylindrical
and spherical. I have all niy lenses ground by the very best opti
cal cnnipany in America. They never fail to give satisfaction. And
I can sell tlieni for less than half what you would pay In Portland,
as my expenses are small. I have a way of fixing rimless lenses
that is my secret, by which they are not easily broken. For com
pound stignmtism no one can be suited with lenses unless their
eyes are treated by a regular eye-testing instrument, same as 1 have
in my store. Q J. TEMPLE-
