T he postal deficit during the last fiscal year was 811,411,779. It is not an argument in favor of the govern- went ownership of railroads. Quite a number of persons to whom bills for subscription to The Reporter weie sent during October responded very promptly. A great many others have paid no attention to the matter. We dis like very much to place an account for so small an amount aa most of these bills represent in the hands of an attorney, knowing that it will make additional coat ; but when it is understood that these small items aggregate several hundreds of dollars, it becomes patent that nothing less can be done. No accounts will be placed for collection before the 15th of the present month, and the liberal terms of settlement will be extended until that time, as we desire to give every oppor tunity for amicable and easy settlement, but after that date the accounts will be placed in other hands.

The slump in price that came next day made the sellers feel like lucky fellows. A telegram was received Tuesday eve ning, by E. W. Wallace, secretary of Mc Minnville camp. Woodmen of the World, conveying intelligence of the death of E. J. Esson, a well known citizen of this place. Something over a year ago Mr. Esson and family went to Santa Barbara, Cal., where he has been working at hie trade of carpentry. It was their inten tion to return here shortly. From letters received prior to the telegram announc ing his death, it appears that he had been seriously ill for a number of days. Mr. Esson was a man of medium age, and was well esteemed in this com munity, where he had resided for a num ber of years. The wife and little daugh ter who mourn the loss of busband and father, have the heartfelt sympathy of many friends here. There is more encouraging outlook for the improvement of the Yamhill than when we wrote concerning it one week ago. For some weeks certain of our citi zens have been active in the matter and considerable correspondence with pow ers that be has passed through the mails. A telegram has been received by James McCain, chairman of the republican committee from Senator McBride, who is now in Washington, saying that the or der has been revoked suspending work on the specifications for tho locks and dam. In a personal letter referring to the same matter, Senator McBride ex presses the opinion that the money ap propriated is sufficient for the comple tion of the work ; if not it will be an easy matter to obtain the necessary amount additional. Now, we under stand, as soon as the engineering de partment completes the specifications, if it makes no more mistakes, the work of construction will pe let by contract. Grew Worse General Invitation. Under Treatment Till We Gave Her Hood's Sarsaparilla —She Has Rosy Cheeks Now. “ When iny baby was two months old she cried night and day, and seemed to be in great pain. She had a discharge from her ears, and the top of her head broke out in scrofulous eruptions. The doctor gave me some thing to stop the discharge and ease the pain, but. his treatment did not cure her and we were sorry to see The trading public of Yamhill and adjoining counties invited to visit A. J. APPERSOTs’S instead of better. The top of her head broke out with scrofula. A crust would form on her head and fall off, taking the hair along with it, and this continued for two or three months, when something seemed to tell me to try Hood's Sarsaparilla, and I did so, together with Hood’s Pills and Hood’s Olive Ointment. Soon in McMinnville and place their Fall orders for Staple & Fancy Dry Goods, Boots, Shoes, Slothing, Groceries, Etc. The Discharge Stopped and the sores were rapidly healing.

Address, “The Religions of the future” Rev. F. O. Krause. When a young girl steps from girlhood into wo manhood, she en ters a new and strange country. A land of promise and hope, yet full of hidden dangers. Whether she will find happiness or misery depends largely upon the health and condition of the deli cate, special organism which is the source and centre of her womanhood. The lives of young women are often wrecked because of a mistaken sense of modesty, which leads them to neglect the earlier symptoms of feminine weakness These troubles unless corrected, develop into serious chronic difficulties which be come a dragging burden, ruining life’s best opportunities and blighting all possibility of happy wifehood ana motherhood. Any woman suffering from these delicate complaints needs the health-giving power of Dr Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It heals and strengthens the womanly organs; stops weakening drains; gives vitality to the nerve-centres, and restores perfect or ganic soundness and constitutional energy. It is the only medicine devised for this pur pose by a skilled and experienced specialist in diseases of the feminine organism. Remember each customer when his purchases amount to $15 receives as a premium a fine picture aud historj’ of the first American flag. R. J. APPERSOfl. : : Mrs. W. B. Duncan, of Arlington, Mo., writes: “ I have used your ‘ Favorite Prescription ’ and am never tired of sounding its praise. When my lady friends complain, I say ‘ Why don’t you take Dr Pierce’s Favorite Prescription?’ I told an awxious mother, whoae daughter (18 years old) had not been right for five months, about the medicine, and after the young lady had taken two-thirds of a bottle ©f ’Favorite Prescription ’ she was all right Slit had been treated by two of our best doctors.” Dr. Pierce’s great thousand page illus trated book, The People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser” sent paper-bound on receipt of 21 one-cent stumps to pav the cost of mailing only.
