roBldffnce'bt Charles A. Gray, at 7GS
State. fctreol, uhortly after 2 o'clock
tills morning, nnd finding Ills way up
stairs nnd Info tho stooping npnrt
monts of Mr. nnd Mrs. Gray, a bold,
bnd bitrclur was discovered In tho
act of soarchlng tho pockets of tho
eon, Qcorgo William Clray, and was
frightened away bofpro ho could se
curo tho C-cont ploco'tfint was In ono
of tho pants pockets.
Tho lntrudor evidently gained an
ontranco to tho house by turning tho
Icoy in tho kitchen door lock, as tho
door was found unlocked nftor his
doparturo, made his way tip stairs
and had Just begun operations whon
Mrs. Gray awakoned and sounded tho
alarm. Ho had been in tho chambor
for sovoral minutes boforo Mrs. Gray
realized that It was nono of tho fam
ily, and awakoned Mr, Gray, Tho
burglar was In tho act of searching
tho son's trousers pockets, but ho
lied precipitately at tho first alarm.
Thoro was n nickel In tho trousors'
pocket, but tho would-ho robbor
overlooked It in Ills hasto, and thoro
was also a consldorablo amount of
money In tho limine, scattered about
In different roceptncles,' but tho
burglar did not luivo tlino to locato

but not n single article of valuo was
missing.
Ofllcor Longcor, who was Immedi
ately notified of tho Incldont, hurried

BUSINESS
IS GETTING
TOO HEAVY
Postmaster Farrar Appeals
For Help to Carry on
Work
Strength Comes
Not for What You Mat, but From
What Von Digest.
.Most peoplo eat most foods with
out discrimination It mutters little
what. l''w top to think what that
food dona for thorn. This Is tho
first turn on the fond to dyspepsia.
Huuklotut dlsrugard of tho propor
jholoo of foods, rapid outing and Im
proper mustieutlon, are tho uminos
tloneil cuuhuh or all utomaeh dUor
dors from tho slluht aalio to the ma
lignant eanuur.
Thoro Is not hi UK moro revolting
than a dyspeptic Htotmieh a very vat
for putrefaction, sending forth Its
poison throughout the entire ayMoin,
ilopruHslug tho brain, bofoullug tho
breath, souring the tastv, deadening
tho imiBoIos, luonpncltatlng tho llror
nnd ktdnoyu for their work, doblll
tntlng tho hoiirt, ohoklng tho lungs
and clogging tho bowels.
All of thodo dlsagrooablo and dan
grou8 copdltlons nro duo to tho Im
proper digestion of food und tho con
sequent mmlmllntlon of poison. What
else can bu expected? If the food
Ilea In tho stomach, It tho system Is
constipated, fermentation I tho nn
turnl outcome. It shows Itself In
sour watery ridings, belchlnga, heart
burn and painful breathing.
Thoro U only ouo way to rollovo
this condition. If tho stomach re
fuses to digest your food put some
thing into It that will. Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets aro nothing but
digestives. Yhoy uro not a medicine.
Thoy work when tho stomach will
not.
Each tablet contains enough pop
sin, diastase, golden seal and other
digestive oloiuonU to reduce 3,000
grains of ordinary food to tho propor
consistency for assimilation Into tho
blood.
Stuart' Dyspepsia Tablets are ab
solutely pure. Thoro Is uothlng
harmful In thum as shown In their
n endorsement by 40,000 physicians In
i 4.tl United States and Cauada.

Tho steady growth and prosperity
.of this section oftlie Willamette val-
loy Is' best reflected by the rapid ln
crcaso In tho amount of business
transacted through tho postofflce,
and ospoclally tho volume, of business
dono In tho money ordor department,
and this work, which was formerly
performed by tho postmaster, has
now grown to such proportions thnt
tho postmastor lina applied for and
secured an additional clork to wait
upon money order customers, and
will bo obllccd to hnvo ono or two
moro boforo ho can find tlmo to look
aftor tho regular oxecutlvo duties de
volving upon him.
This congested condition also ex
ists In tho mall delivery dopartmont,
and, although tho force of carriers
has boon Incroased by two since Mr.
Fnrrnr'a Incumbency, tho forco can
not cover tho territory In tho allot
tod tlmo, nnd It will bo necessary to
put on nt least two moro In tho nonr
future. Thoro aro now seven car
rlors on tho forco. nnd, bolng almost
In the midst of tho holiday rush It
In growing npparont that tho postof-
flco omployos will bo literally burled
with work boforo tho closo of tho
year. Postmaster Farrar roports
that tho monoy order business has
Incroased ovor 30 per cont over that
of-a year ago at this season.
Ho nlso states that a shlpmont of
a dozon moro posta for mail boxes
for tho now districts Is oxpocted to
arrive dally, whon tho boxes will be
put up tmmcdtntoly. Ho also ordorod
and rccolved now cards for all of tho
stroot boxos, bearing printed Instruc
tions concerning tho hours of col
lecting and closing of malls, but the
railroad has adopted a now trnln
Hahcdulo alnco tho cards woro prlnt
odi And It will bo' necessary to have
thorn changed to conform. This
work,. will bo dono by tho postolllco
forco. Tho old cnrdB have dono sor
vlco so long that tho cards had grown
yollow with ngo, and tho printed
mattor had becomo almost ontlroly
obliterated nnd senrcoly declphorablo

A CASE OF
VICARIOUS
SUNSTROKE
Johnson, or Smith, or Jones, nov
el mind his Unit name, looked upon
tho wlno whon It was rod yestorday
or at loast actod as though ho had
done so nnd so a namosako, though
not u relation, took pity on h'lm and
Invited him to onjoy tho hospitality
of tho city. Not only Invltod, but
uotually Insisted to such a dogroo
that tho other Johnson, though fully
realising that thoro wbb entirely "too
much Johnson," could not Unci It In
his heart, or legs, to refuse This
morning ho sorutche.l his head
thoughtfully, whon Wyllo 11. lot uls
Judicial ciizo rost upon him, and in
dignified touoa asked htm If It was
truo, and If so how much. Johnson
said ho hud a rather Indistinct recol
lection of tho matter, but to tho best
of his know lodge and bollof his hon
or had atatod tho case much hotter
than ho could have stated It himself,
under tho circumstances. IIo said
ho was sorry, and ho looked tho
part, llo also admitted on tho q. t.
to tho Judge that his tomporary men
tal aberration wus not entirely duo
to Indulgqnco in incarnadine coflln
varnish, or dark brown concentrated
ossenco of sheep border's delight. Ho
confessed that ho had stood undor a
Salem aro light, in a tit of forgetful-
uoss, and was reall suffering from
a caso of Vicarious aunatroko, but ho
nover would ngalu, uot If permitted
to bo down town und got a few
bunches of hair off the tall of tho
