tract for excavating the trenches of this
sewer was let to A. M. Austin at 67 cents

They know how to cure rheumatism in
Pennsylvania Mr.. J. F. Meighan, a
Pittsburg cigar dealer, awoke one
morning with an attack of rheumatism
in his right arm. Working around the
store during the forenoon made it worse.
By noon the pain was so severe that he
could not raise his hand to his head and
had to carry his arm in sling. One of his
customers, on learning the facts, went
across the street to E. E. Heck's drug
store, and at his own expense procured
bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and persuaded the cigar dealer to try it.
1t eased the pain and reduced the swell
ling so that by the next morning he
could use his arm, and by the second
morning was entirely well. This is only
one OF the many severe cases of rheuma-
tism that have been cured by this valua-
BILE remedy. Fifty-cent bottles for sale

In Gen. Sprague's official order, the off
GERS and enlisted men of the Cadets are dis.
charged. The enlisted men of the Blues are
discharged but nothing is said about the
commissioned officers. Captain Baker, OF
the Cadets, is given authority to recruit a
new company, but according to the way the
order reads Captain Baker is discharged and
has no right to do this. On the other hand
the officers of the Blues still hold their COM
missions and have not been discharged. Ad-
jutant General Sprague has been asked to
straighten out the difficulty. The Blues
were taken by surprise when the order for
disbanding came They intended to reorgan-
ize the company and fifty new men were in
readiness to join the ranks.

to the artist. as the name on the back of the

now found, by reference to Lanzi's History
of Painting, that Cavalier Franceso Currado
was one of Bronzino's scholars; that he be-

PORTLAND, March 10. 1890.
W.. fl promises, gssss "a a /.
to tell you
more about Umbrellas.
The story can be often
repeated that we sell the
best $3.50 Umbrella in
Portland and the many
hundreds which have been
sold warrant us in saying
SO. We don't make much
money on one of them but
the quantity sold will ag-
gregate a good wholesale
business on one style.
Some months since we
ordered a large line of fine
silk umbrellas to sell at
five dollars. They were
ordered early so as to get
a good collection of han
dies also to give the max
ers time to make them up
during the dull season,
thereby getting a little bet
ter work into them and a
liberal reduction in the
price. Our object is to get
the best silk umbrella pos
sible for /ave dollars and
we think this has now
been accomplished. Silks
have advanced and similar
goods are considerably
higher than when we or
dered them.
The new goods are in
both eight and ten rib best
quality paragon frame and
have a very choice assert
ment of natural stick han
dies.
We have higher and low
er price silk umbrellas, a
big assortment, but if you
want an umbrella that will
stand by you until itgrows
old, come in and see the
five dollar ones.

And faith and hope their promised triumph win. !,

More surely shall Thy word its thought fulfil,
For truth in human hearts is mighty still,
Prophetic yearning wakes not to betray,
But halls in notes of joy one coming sway,
Working or waiting owns one perfect VIII.
