T. T. Gecr has been thrown down
so many tlm,;3 by the Republican
managers that he's thinking of doing
sonic managing himself.
Tom UpdcKiad has Wen 'n con

u bill through to abolish fees of fed

bam two millions a year. Such a man
cams his salary.
The managers of the Reform par
ties In Oregon don't want t-i be so re
luctant about permitting the people
to unite In one opposition party that
when the managers dually get ready
to let them the people won't do It.
The X Ray man thinks the way to
unite Is to unite. A whole lot or poli

may come to thin they arc not graft

If Tom Tongue Is re-elected he will
probably be willing to allow
all the young men of this district a
chance to compete openly for the ca

Interest of the Republican party, the
places must be awarded scretly to

ADDRESS ON OLD BILLY.
J. G. Pierce, editor of the Klamath
Falls Express, is Oregon's humorous
poet, and following to "Old Billy," Is
abcut ao unique as Burn's poem on
the daisy, or James Whitcomb Riley's
"Old John Henry:"
Ileyl Ole feeble where ye goin'?
'Peart' shake a limber leg
Per a hoss so ancient growl n'
Yes uv course yer got terbeg
Per more oats an' tim'thy hay,
S'pose I've got ter climb them steps
'N' give old BUI a spear er two,
Else he'd never quit, pr'hp3
But alius keep up scch a stew
Confound'st hoss I ever saw !
Maks me chase 'round fore dark
'N' bed hini.'itli a foot o' straw,
Then he's tol'ble decent hark.!

Alius wuz thistles in that hay.
No, don't s'pose 'twould suit you.

"Only the Best"
Should be your motto, when you
need a medicine. Do not be Induced
to take any substitute when you call

SOME SUNDAY SERMONS
Rev J J Evans Preached His Initial
Sermon Y. M C A. Open Meeting.
The members of the First Christian
church extended a cordial welcome
to their new pastor. Rev. J. J. Evans.
Sunday morning when that gentlc
man preachpd his Initial sermon In
, " Jr
city on the Sunday morning overland
from Salinas, California. Key. Evans
is n young man, .ibout thirty years of
aire and linsa very pleasing appear
ance. He Is a ready and fluent
speaker.
The text of the sermon, which wa
peculiarly appropriate to tho begmlng
of the year and the relations that had
Just been iwsumed between pastor and
pebole. was taken from I Samuel, lt
20: "There went with Saul an host
whose hearts God had touched."
It Is only after wo have acquired a
thorough knowledge of God that e
understand Him. Nature on every
hand tells of God and It Is only
through the bible we learn of the love,
sympathy and friendship of God. The
Ammonites of today v 1 1 1 understand
the power of God as they shall see it
manifested In the lives or Chrlstains.
With God-touched hearts we cn
understand the call of GodancI answer
It. Victory will come and the Am
monites of sin and unrighteousness
must fall.
The speaker expressed a desire that
as pastor and people, that the light of
love might shine through their hearts
and Indicate to tho wcrld an associa
tion with God and that they might
re-dedicate their lives to the service
of God and victory would ret upon
their labors.
The sacrament of the Lord's supper
was administered at the close of the
sermon.
The open meeting at the Y. Sl.C.
A. Sunday afternoon was largely at
tended, the gymnasium and gallery
both being filled. After some gospel
songs had been rendered. Prof. Carl
Denton, accompanied on the piano by
Miss Gertrude Denton, executed a vio
lin solo In a masterful way, The
beautirul duet "Raise Me Jesus to
Thy Bosom" was as beautifully sung
by the Misses Southwlck with sweet
expression. Luke Lynn's well-trained
yoice was heard in "Flee as a Bird to
Yon Mountain" In which he displayed
marked talent as a vocalist,
Rev. W. C. Kantner delivered an
appropriate and practical address,
basing his remarks on a portion of
James 4, 14: "For What Is Your
Life?"
A great many men have an errone
ous conception of this life. This life
is a mystery, Everything about us Is
a mystery. We can understand and
solve much of the mystery of this life
If we take God into cur plans. Life
In this world Is but a training school
for the future. It is only In porpor
tion as we sit at tho feet of Jesus that
we understand the mysteries of this
life. That which may seem to us to
be tho supreme success in this life, in
God's sight may proye the supremest
failure. "It Is not all of life to lire
nor death to die. "A seeming failure
here below may prove tho hlghcstsuc-
cess in the future world. Tho hlgh-6Hlft'yrnHvofiif'-1,dlUM-,'AaU:tiul

It Is supposed he suffered an attack of

TABLETS.

Faith in Them or Not.
of faith has a great deal to do In tho
cure of disease.
Firm belief and coniidencc in a fam
ily nhvslcian or the same confidence
and faith in a patent medicine, hayc
produced rcmarKarjie cures in all
ages
This is especially true in nervous
troubles and no Held offers so nrolilic
a harvest for the quackand charlatan,
as the diseases arising from a weak or
run down nervous system.
Nevertheless, tlio most common of
all diseases, Indigestion and stomach
troubles, which In turn cause nervous
diseases, heart troubles, consumption
and loss of (lesh, requires something
besides faith to cure.
Mere faith will not digest your food
for you, will not glye you an appetite,
will not increase your ilesh and
strengthen your nerves and heart,
but Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
do theso things, because, they arc
composed of tlio elements of diges
tion, they contain the juices, acids
and peptones necessary to tho diges
tion and assljiiiation of all whole
some food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will di
gest food If placed in a Jar or bottle
In water heated to 9B, degrees, and
they will do It much more affectively
when taken into the stomach after
meals, whether you hayo faith that
they will or not.
They Invigorate tho stomach, make
pure blood and strong nerves, in the
only way that nature can do It, and
that Is.from plenty orjWiiolesomo food
well digested. It is not what wo cat,
but what we digest that docs us good.
