It was said that his lack of success was due, partially at least, to the fact that there was no mistress to preside at his em bassy.

German embassy has taken on a different appearance, and there Is no more hospitable official home at Washington than hers. The British Ambassador, Sir Michael Herbert, when he was attached to the British embassy as secretary, married the daughter of Richard T. Wilson, of New York. Lady Herbert, both by her Wealth and peculiar fitness for the post takes a leading part in the social world and is a notable woman. She takes a real Interest in her husband's Work, and no small measure of his success is due to her. "- . Madame Jusserand, wife of the French Ambassador, - is visiting the United States for the first time. She was Miss Elsie Richards, daughter of George T. Richards, a banker of New York and Paris. Her family lived abroad and this Is probabry the reason she has never before visited her own country. . In appearance she is more French than American. The wife of the Belgian Minister was formerly Miss Clayton, of Arkansas. I B. V H V 1 I I I V I WHO G TIN NOT BE GURED. Backed tip by over a third of a century of remarkable and uniform cures, a record such as no other remedy for the diseases and weaknesses peculiar to women ever attained, the proprietors and makers of Dr. Pjerce's Favorite Prescription now feel fully warranted in offering- to pay 500 in legal money of the United States for any case of Xeucorrhea, Female AVeakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb, which they cannot cure, : All they ask s a fair and reasonable trial of their means'of crire.

' Their financial responsibility is well known to every newspaper publisher and druggist in the 1 United States, with 'most of whom they have done business for over a third of a ccnturj-. From this fact it will readily be seen how utterly foolish it would be for them to make the aboe un precedented and remarkable offer if they were not basing their offer on curative means having an j unparalleled record. No other medicine than Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription could possibly "win ' out w as the saying goes, on such a proposition. But they know whereof they speak. They have the ' most remarkable record of cures made by this world-famed remedy .everplaced to the credit of any preparation especially designed for the cure of woman's peculiar ailments. This wonderful remedy. therefore, stands absolutely alone as the only one possessed of such . unrivaled curative properties as tutiy warrant its makers, m publishing the remarkable oner above made in the utmost good faith.

I purchased two bottles of Dr.' Pierce's Favorite Prescription, two vials of his Pleasant TeHet, and by using only that small quantity I have found wonderfiil relief.

' ' The Statesman is not surprised at the editorial from the Astorian' re printed In j the Oregonian of yesterday, and copied In the Statesman of this : Mr. Brownell also says he might go into the fight if the Congressional committee would permit a primary j election on the candidates for Congress and would then -permit" the one hav ing the largest vote after stumping the district to control the delegation. But what right has the 'congression al committee to either permit or pre vent all these things? And. again. morning, jit warned the Legislature I ,,Upp0ee 8ome candidate might refuse to stump the district. What of him? Ana, again, suppose the convention should decide that the DODuIar vnto was only "advisory," after alt? And then, suppose that, though Mr. Brown ell should be the ''highest candidate," the convention should decide to not have his theory ' crammed down its throat!! You know there are prece dents for such action, and that "ad visory" votes do not always count. ; LET THERE BE PRIMARIES. Not under any circumstances should the idea of selecting a candidate for. Congress without holding regular pri maries for that purpose, be entertain of this universal sentiment prevailing at Astoria, concerning what the Astor ian In this editorial -Icalls "Portland's seaport , pretensions. Senator ' Fulton announces a broad policy affecting the Columbia liver; indeed, he has done so on many occasions, but If he adheres to it in actual service in the Senate he will disappoint every citizen of As toria, man, woman and child. Astoria does not believe in Portland as a seaport. Its people universally believe that every sea-going vessel which goes any distance above As toria Is transgressing the laws of na ture and f common sense.

This district is strongly Republican, and the Republicans will easily carry it if "the people be d d" policy is not carried too fari By refus ing to recognize the Mays law In the Legislature in their persistency in vot- tng for a man who had been rejected by the popular vote; the Democrats de stroyed every chance they ever had to appeal to the sympathy of the people. The Mays law only provided that the name of the "highest candidate" should be presented to the j Legislature. Mr. WooI recognized this fact and advised the Democratic members to a govern themselves, i - s w. j t ;.VJ k Unless 1 the Republicans make some ffross blunder, this district Is safely Republican, and the commission - of a blunder Is not to be anticipated. Only be fair with the people. I INFLUENCE Or AMERICAN MEN. VO It Is a matter .worthy of considera tion that there are six women of Amer- I lean parent 15? to be found In tbe diplo- inanc corps at Washington. These wo men are the wlvej of foreign envoys. bcr of Harvard graduates, and his txni- clusion was that these men do not havr as. many children; as "they ' ought have. He also advanced the proposdtioT that, on the average, the families of thi educated classes 'in this country are not as large as they should T. The moral pointed by this criticism started a surprising amount of comment. Just at the time when the Eliot con tribution was getting attention, Pret dent .Roosevelt vwrote a letter which eopn reached the public, in which h warmly praised the author who had written In the hope of bringing to pub He attention the same point that had been brought out by President .Eliot, Mr. Roosevelt made an earnest plea lit behalf of larger families. in good time the fact that these two presidents had taken up this subject in an earnest way came to the atten tion of Susan. B. Anthonv. S dis posed of the Harvard part 'oi It with tne reman tnat -two children apiece for Harvard graduates are rjuite enough, since the Harvard men do not always make the best fathers." But when it came to Roosevelt's flock. the famous woman's rights oracle was evi dently not accurately informed as to the sise of it. Rather petulantly she Inquired: "And how ' many children have the Roosevelts themselves?; J YVhen she was told that there are six the conversation stopped right there. That is six more than can be found In the Anthony " household; and since Miss Susan is eighty-three years old. and not yet even so much as engaged to be married .that is six children more than she Is likely to have. .
