TORATTO
For Adults and Children in cold climates and acdrm.
1t has remained to q late day to discover an
article so admirably fitted to these complaints; so
powerful and efectual, and yet so perfectly inno-
cent and mild.
Let not the public class the scientific result of
learned Physician and Divine with the nos
trums of the day. Let them make careful peru
sal of the evidences attending this article; their
responsibility, and the decided manner in which
they speak, and they cannot withhold their belief
to some Of its virtues. Let assure them that a
single trial of it will do more to convince all of
its merits tran all they can see or hear on the
subject. 1t is quite certain that no injury has
ever been known to arise from its free use.
AN UNCOMMON fact is, that this remedy is a
syrup, as palatable and pleasant to the taste as
the most popular French cordials, and children
take it always with the greatest readiness

Some one says keep your secret yourself,
for how can you expect others to do that
which you cannot? Still, am persuaded
more secrets are revealed by being kept
than by being told. You enlist a persons
honor and, still dearer. their vanity, on
your side by confidence. We all desire to
deserve the good opinion which we believe
we have inspired; but distrust awakens all
that is little and mean within US. Why
should we better than we are held to be-
We are mortified by not being thought
worthy of trust; and there is also feeling
of small triumph in circumventing those
who doubt either our inclination or our
power of service. We like to show that
we are not the noncniities for which we
were taken,

CkFREAp! READ!!--To the citizens of Chicago,
but to the ladies in particular. In former days
the proprietor, (whether in the shape Of medicine
or otherwiso,) was duly respected, and we think
that some of that oldfashioned purity still exists;
and our benevolence extends thus far, that we do
not charge any community with dishonesty and
ingratitude save those who have tried to palm on
an unsuspecting public various hair toncs, call
ing them genuine, &c. Felow-citizens, Il ere is
but one genuine hair tonic, and if you wish
rich luxuriant head of hair, do not fail to pro-
cure it. The balm of Columbia" has restored
the hair to virgin perfection upon those who have
been bald for years Age, state or condition APP
pears to be no obstacle whatever. 1t stimulates
the cutaneous vessels, causing the fluid TO flow,
and tens of thousands, nay more, whose heads
are grey as the badger of the prairie, have had
their hair restored to its natural color, by the
of this first, best hair tonic, upon which you may
explicitly depend. In conclusion, do not be put
off with any other article. Enquire for Odridges

BY MRS. FRANCIS S. oseooD.
Darling OF all hearts, that listen
To your MARBLE wild and true,
As lovely star doth glsen
In the far West-so do you!
Are you sure you are mortal?
Or Peri in disguise,
Watching till the Heavenly portal
Lets you into Paradise?
Willing all the weary hours,
With the songs you used to sing,
In those bright eril bowers,
Where the rainbow tipt its wing.
Peri! no-all woman feeling
Pleads in that imprisoned lay;
Yet It's woman proudly stealing
Some fond angels harp away.
Mingling, with divine emotion
Holy as a seraph's thought
Human love and warm devotion,
Into rarest pathos wrought,
Sweep again the silver chords!
Pour the soul OF music there!
Write, for your heart tunes the words,
And our hearts will play the air !

There are very few women but who like
each others society, and of this liking,
sympathy is the grand secret; none but
themselves can fully enter into their hopes,

at the expiration Of twenty years.
WILLAMETTE FALLS, Oregon,)
July 0, 1914.
DEAR SIR-EncIosed you will find copies
OF several bills passed by the provisional le-
gislature of this territory, which may be in
teresting to some Of your reaoerS, which
select from amongst some twenty-five in
number, passed by the recent session just
adjourned.
The territory has been already organized
by the consent OF a majority Of the citizens
here for their own municipal regulations
elections held in the various districts for an
executive committee Of three, one secreta-
ry, chief justice, members Of the legislative
committee, sheriff, justices of the peace, mi
Iitary officers, &c.
Our provisional laws have heen in force
twelve months or more; courts held in the
several districts; and the laws executed
with as much promptness and satisfaction
as they are usually in frontier settlement,
notwithstanding our citizens are made up
with subjects of almost every civilized gov.
ernment in the world. OF course these
laws are to give way to either Of the great
contending parties for jurisdiction, when
that mooted question shall have been set
tied.
The laws OF Ioway have been adopted SO
far as they apply to the wants OF this terri
tory. The legislative committee meet again
the Cd Monday OF December next by ad.
journment.
The canal chartered "a copy Of which !
send YOU ! am informed will cost the pro,
prietor some twenty thousand dollars. Its
length will be near half me--part OF the
way through ssoIid bed OF primitive rock.
The fall, from head to foot, as amintormed
by the Hudson Bay Company's engineer,
Mr.. Fenton, will be about 50 feet. The
wing necessarily thrown across the east
chute OF the river, in the construction oil
the canal, will render the hitherto preca.
rious navigation of the river, at this point
safe and easy. Several canoes have passed
over the falls, drowning a. on board. The
last one, about twelve months ago, carry
ing six persons, amongst whom were the
late Mrs. and Mr.. Rogers. and younger
sister. This evil itself remedied, would fuI,
y reward the community for The privilege
conferred by the legislature. Part of the
contract tor excavating has already been
let to Mr.. Hatch, American citizen, who
with several hands, is engaged in its con
struction. All is life aud prosperity, here
and nothing is wanted to make this one o.
the farest portions Of the globe, hut gooC
laws and industrious and enterprizing citi
zens.
The harvest which is just now being cu
is in abundance, and the finest quality; the
grain being of a superior quality to any
raised east of the mountains, gives lively
and encouraging satisfaction to all new EN-
igrants.
am, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
