Sitting on the Safety Valve.


Many are they who have laughed
at the story of the green steamboat
fireman who sat on the safety valve
10 prevent it "leaklng." Yet thou
sands are repeating his folly every
day. They are troubled with PIN
pies. blotches, eruptions, salt rheum,
boils carbunclcs, ulcers and old sores,
and are contenting themselves with
suppressing the symptoms without
removing the cause. They sit on
these safety valves by which nature
is driving out blood impurisies, in
stead of using DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, which cures by
removing the cause, which is in the
blood. 1t is wonderful blood pu.
rifier and invigoratipg tonic.
Do you think the proprietOrs OF
DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy would
offer, as they have done for many
years, "A standing reward of $500 for
a case of catarrh which they can
not cure, if they did not positively
know that the Remedy will absO-
lutely and permanently cure ca
tarrh? Sold by druggists, at only

The men who murdered DIR. Gro

have passed in securing the country

At last eight men have been sw orn

by giving them from $1,000 10 5000

was the m iney which honest Irish
men had paid in To what was called
the Burial association, or rather the
proceeds of Ogden Grove picnics and

WE are taught to believe all we
desire to do and all which gives us
the largest amount of happiness in
doing, is temporal and therefore un-
godly happiness; and all we do not
want to do not and go reluctantly
about doing, is Gods will of us and
must be done to attain Heaven.
Awful queer, isn't it? Nothing in
nature is governed by such laws,
and yet all animal life, except man,
is peaceful and happy compared TO
him.

CABINET officers under the present
administration have a very trying
time lately. So have the cabinet Ia
dies. In almost every city in the
United States yearly rents expire on
or about the 1st OF May. Not so in
Washington. Now is the housekeep-
er's winter of discomfort in the Capi-
tai City. Every man or woman who
does not own a house and many that
do are now hunting for places to live
during the coming season. The fact that
this is the first year of the administra-
ton makes the houses scarcer and the
work harder. 1t is no exaggeration to
say that house hunting is harder there
than it is anywhere else, except it may
be Astoria. The town is not big
enough for its population, and it is es-
sentially city of lodging houses. 1t
is estimated that six out of ten house
renters in Washington, take
houses without any reasonable
ground for believing that they
viii be able to pay the rent.
They hope to pay it by taking lodgt
ers during the season of congress.
Tais is the reason that house-hunting
is more distressing than it is in cities
where the native population does not
try TO rent the town on speculation
and thus handicap the would-be resi-
dent renter. Even the cabinet officials
have had an unusually hard time, and
although they have nearly all at last
succeeded in getting houses, all of
them are not settled. While house
hunting cabinet officers have hard
time the senators and congressman
have even more obstacles to combat.
Advertisements like the following
crowd the daily papers:
WANTED.-In a private family, by
a senator and wife, three nicely fur
nished rooms and bath, with first
class board; also room for maid.
As a rule the members of congress
DO not go until just before the session
and then there is a grand scramble
for rooms and houses.

Mrs. Fowler said It was true that It had cured

ASTORIA. OREGON:
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.

The so-called Christian Science" of
the day is fast going to seed. 1t Is
putting forth such preposterous
claims that all sober-thinking people
must regard it as one of the most
transparent of delusions. 1t claims
that there is no disease, infirmity or
mortality except in the wrong con-
ceptions existing in the mind; and
when these conceptions can be dis
PEELED, disease and all infrmity will
disappear and men will live forever
It's disciples are beginning to urge
the claim that the advent of this
science is the second coming of Christ
and the ushering in of the millen-
MUM
These statements are made on the
authority of a long article on this
subject in the Chicago Tribune of
Sept. 19, 1889. At No. 571 Columbus
avenue, New York, so this paper
states, is a fine white sandstone
building, which is a lawfully chartered
metaphysical college devoted to the
PRONUNCIATION of this science. This
college is in charge of DIR. Frank E.
Mason, who in the course of an inter
view with reporter of the New York
sun, is represented as stating the ma
ture and work of Christian Science in
the following language:
The physical, personal Jesus has dis
appeared, and mankind dwells to-day in
the place he promised to prepare for us.
lie mas come again to receive Us unto
himself in his Fathers kiugdom-a con-
dition of mind, not of locality
Then you believe that Christian Sci
ence is the second coming of Christi" we
asked.
The Bible declares that the second
coming OF Christ shall be without sin
unto salvation" replied Mr.. Mason.
Christian Science teaches that sin has
no existence in reality. Neither, indeed,
do sickness and death. They are but
misconceptions arising from a perverted
sense. IL these malignant evils are real
tiles, God must support them making
Him anything but a very present help in
time of trouble Therefore sin destroyed
to the human consciousness would in
deed be the second coming of Christ.
But bear in mind this second coming of
Christ is not physical, but mental"
The report embraced also an ac-
count OF an interview with DR.. j. +.
Eastman, OF which the reporter said:
"Dr. j. T. Eastman agreed with all DIR.
Mason had said about Christian Science
healing. According to his belief, the
world is entering the millennium, and
depends only upon the spread of the
Christian Science for a complete over
throw of sin and worldliness.
On the subject of the indefinite con-
tinuance of our present life, the fol
lowing is given. The reporter asked:
"Then, under proper conditions, you
think true Christian Scientists can lire
fOreUer?'
''Do you mean IN physical, or in a
spiritual sense?
81 mean the physical"
II supposed you meant that" said DR.
Eastman with smile, "an1 my answer
is yes"
do you believe that you can sustain
your own life indefinitely"
~ dO.'
Then why cannot you sustain others
with the same perpetual life?'
81 can, under the right conditions"
There are said to be some 10000 ad'
herents of this system already in the
United States, and between two and
three thousand studentsi in the various
schools studying this so-called sci
ence
