It breaks the line of sizes, and as they were not careful in replacing the goods in the box they are slightly mussed, and for this reason we are making a very attractive price on the lot.

No man can be strong who ia Buffering irom weak atomach with ita consequent indigestion, or from tome other disease of the stomach and its associated organs, which im pairs digestion and nutrition. For when the atomach ia weak or diseased there is a loaa of the nutrition contained in food, which ia the source of all physical strength. When a man "doesn't feel just right," when he doesn't sleep well, haa an uncomfortable leeling in the stomach after eating, is languid, nervous, irritable and despond. cnt, he is losing the nutrition needed to make strength. Sue a man should use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cures diseases ot the atomach and other organs ot digestion and nutrition. It enrlchea the blood. Invigorate the liver, strengthens the kidneys, nourishes the nerves, and so GIVES HEALTH aD STRENGTH TO THE WHOLE BODY. You can't afford to accept tttret nostrum as substitute for this non- alcoholic medicine of known composition, not even though the urgent dealer may thereby make a little bigger pro6t.

GROWERS PROTEST AGAINST PORTER BILL Wherea , a bill is now peudiog Id the (Jolted States Congress, knowu as the Porter bill, applying to closed packages of applug as articles of State and Inter-State Commerce, aDd Whereas, the prorislous of Sec 3 of said bill eatabliciliitiK the standard size of apple boxes and of Sea. 4, fixing giades, vitally nffect tbo interests of the cotnmcicial fruit growers of tbe Pnoi Ho Coast in pattionlar; Kesolved, that tbe Vakim'a Valley Fruit & Pro duce Growers Association, of Urang er, Wash., gowera, packers and ship per of apples to tbe markets of tbe world, hereby i coord ita objections to certain provisions of said bill, as fol lows, to wit: i'lie measure of the "heaped bu shel." upon which it is proposed that sizes of boxes and baskets shall be based, is a variable standard, de pendent upon individual traits of character, sizes of apples or otber condition, and tberefoie not a scien tillo measure of capacity. Its only support Is loe.nl sustoui in . compara tively l'miled retail markets, where unpacked apples are sold iu bulk. Ibis proiiuuial custom, where preva lent, hIsO applies to other agricultural products. It belougs to tbe days ot "rule ot tbiinit" measurement and is uuwortby of perpetuatiou by law as to apples or any other product. The bill does not specify that tb "heaped bushel" uieusure shall apply to apples packed in barrels, and in this respect is unjustly discrimina tory. Ibe pioposed standard of 2561 cubic Inches to a but bel of apples is au ar bitrary aud uncalled tor innovation. The Winchester tusbel, containing 2150.4 cubic inches is tbe United States standard. There is no more reason or justice in changing tbia standard as applied to apples, than there would be in obanging it tor auy or every otber agricultural prod uct. Tbe standard apple boxes used by tbia association, and generally ou tbe Paoflc Coast are of tbe following di mensions: 10,'i Inches deep by ll1.; inches wide by 18 inches loug, inside measurement, aud contain 213.5 Xu bio incbes, or more than a Winches ter bushel. This standard was adopted in the year 1902, by tbe Northwest fruit lirowors' association, comprising tbe states of Washington. Oregon, Idaho, Montaua, Utah aud tbe province of British Columbia. It is the result of knowledge and practical experience, gained in the growing and marketing of fruits exteudiug over many years. It is serving its purpose to the mtis faction of our glowers, packers .-.od buvers tu the axieut or millions box'8 each year 27, 1908, -Tbe University of Oregon Ulee and Mandolin Clubs will again tour Eastern Oregon during tbe Christmas holidays.

Objects to Dalks Hospitality For a drunk and a bobo, Morris Redfltld displayed unusual proudness aud a delicacy in police court this morning, says tbe Chronicle. Ho was picked up on the streets last night and arrested for drunkenness, lie ap peared before City heoorder Filloou today, pleaded guilty and was fined $5. "I don't care about tbe $5, for 1 have tbe money to pay my fine though 1 may not have auy more money tot a month but what I object to, your honor, is fritting up all ulgbt." "How s tbat, we do not compel cur prisoners to s't up all night wheu lodged in tbe city jail," said the po lice judge. "Maybe you don t but who would want to crawl into those blankets over at the lockup?" replied RedQeld. "Ob, that's all right," returued Mr. Fillonu, "we dou't charge you extra tor any of tbe city live stnok you car ry away with you." Tbe prisoner paid his tine and bade tbe officials good day, murmering something about instituting a cam paign in tbe state legislature, to pro vide for better aucommodations iu tbe lock-ups and jails of tbe state.

Asking too Much I believe there's a story told of Mark Twain tbat in youthful days, being seut out by his mother to weed a certain flower ted, and finding more weeds ttian Dowers, be came back in and asked it be might not "flower the weed bed." Our little Alfred probably has as great an aversion to work bb bad tbe youthful Clemens Admonished to pull gome ratber large weeds, in the baok yaid, alter a faint-hearted lift on one tf them, be shouted: "Mama, bow do you think I'm go ing to pull these weeds when tbn whole world ia hitched onto them?"
