How Men Die.

II We know all the methods of ap.
proach adopted by an enemy we are
the better enabled to ward off the
danger and pospone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable. In
many instances the inherent strength
of the body suffices to enable it to op-
pose the tendency toward death.
Many however have lost these forces
to such an extent that there is little
or no help. In other cases a little
aid to the weakened Lungs will make
all the difference between sudden
death and many years of useful life.
Upon the first symptoms of a Cough,
Cold or any trouble of the Throat or
Luugs, give that old and wellknown
remedy-Boschee's German Syrup, a
careful trial. It will prove what
thousands say of it to be, the "bene-
factor of any home"

A Wide Difference.

Esther Holiday, widow of the late
Ben Holiday, instituted proceedings
in Multnomah comfy court, to COM
pei her brother-in-law, Joseph Holla-
day, executor of the estate of his
brother Ben, to show cause why he
should not pay her about $1,000 ar
rears due her on the monthly allow
anoe allowed her by the court out of
the estate. In her sworn complaint
she asserts that her husband, Ben
Holiday, died possessed of an estate
worth S1,500,000. In his sworn an
swer to the demand of the widow,
Joseph Holiday, denies that Ben
Holiday died possessed of an estate
worth S1,500,000, or any other sum;
that while it is true that he was the
owner of a large amount of property
he was neither possessed nor entitled
to the possession of it; that the whole
of it was at the time of his death, and
for long time prior thereto, encum-
bered. and IN the possession and con-
troll of other parties, and at the time
of his death he did not have means
with which to pay the expenses of his
last sickness and funeral.

capitalists aggregating $500, 900,

may sail up the bay of Fundy, after
being hoisted by hydraulic lifts, and
be transported to the gulf of st. Law

forty miles long. The contracts call
