SELF-praise Is no recommends ton, but there
are times when one must permit O person TO lelI
the truth about himself When what he says Is
supported by the testimony OF others no reas-
enable man Will doubt his word. Now, to say
that ALLCocK's Porous PLAsTERs are the only
genuine and reliable porous plasters made is not
self-walse In The slightest degree. They have
stood the test for over thirty years. and In proof
OF their merits 1t Is only necessary to call atten-
ton 10 the cures they have effected and TO the
voluntary testimonials OF those who have used
them.

Portland Workin gmen VIII Be Helped b
the Eieht-Hour League


the EiGht-Hour League.
There was largely attended meeting of
the Federated Trades at lower Metropoli-
tan Hall, last night, for the purpose Of de-
yising ways and means to aid the building
trades of Portland, which are locked-out
and wholly idle by reason Of their attitude
on the eight-hour question.
The session was an interesting one and
lasted until nearly II o'clock, during which
speeches were made by Messrs. Fuhrmann,
Cobb, McGlynn and Mackay. The imme-
diate question was how TO furnish aid with
out delay, and was finally referred to a
committee OF fifteen, to be appointedi by
the various unions and called to meet at
Metropolit an Hall on Saturday night.
During the meeting letter from the Los
Angeles Eight-hour League was read, from
which 1t appeared that on the 30th of April
the eight-hOur system went into effect in
that city without trouble, by agreement of
the bosses and workingmen.

CHAPTER XVI.
ON THE RRInK

Nay, he could see but the one clear and
resolute way out Of all these perplexities,
which was that he should forthwith and
without further preamble marry Maisrie
Bethune; thereafter his relatives might do
or say whatever it most pleased them to do
or say. This would be his answer to the
vague but persistent suspicious of Mrs.
Ellison, and to the more precise but none
the less preposterous accusations of his
father. Then as regards Msisrie herself,
would not this conclusive act Danish all
those dim presentiments and alarms with
which she seemed to regard the future?
And if her present circumstances involved
her in humiliation, he would take her out
of these. The beautiful fair young bride
could be prettily housed somewhere, safe
away from the intrusion Of any process
server. And as for old George Bethune,
ought he not to welcome this guardianship
that would succeed his own? The happi-
ness of his granddaughter seemed to be his
first care; and here was stay and bulwark
for her, protection for her when his own
should be Withdrawn in the natural course
of things.
This solution Of the difficulty seemed rea-
sonable and simple, though sometimes his
arguments would get lost in food of wild
