Pronounced Hopeless, Yet Saved
From letter written by Mrs. Ada E.
Hurd, of Groton. S. D., we quote: "Was
taken with bad cold which settled on my
lungs, cough set in and finally terminated in
Consumption. Four doctors gave up saying
L could live but short time. gave my
self mp to my Savior, determined if 1 could
not stay with my friends on earth. would
meet my absent ones above. My husband
was advised to get DIR. Kings New Discov-
cry for Consumption, Coughs and Colds I
gave it trial, took in all eight bottles; it
has cured me and thank God am now a
well and hearty woman" Trial bottle free
at I. Graham's drug store, regular size, SOC
and 81.
The report comes that gold mine has
been discovered out at Philomath. We
can not vouch tor the truthfulness of the
rumor, but John G. McCarty, the discover
er, is an oldtime miner, and good re-
ponsible citizen. He is of the opinion that
he has found ledge that will eventually
develop into paying quantities. We
hope it will, and we trust that our good
friend John will become millionaire, but
we doubt very much whether the strike will
pun out in the long run to meet the fond
of its finder.

A MYSTERY.

How the human system ever recovers from
the bad effects of the nauseous medicines Of
ten literally poured into it for the supposi-
tive relief of dyspepsia, liver complaint. con-
stipation, rheumatism and other ailments,
is mystery. The mischief done by bad
medicines is scarcely less than that caused
! by disease. If they who are weak, bilious,
dyspeptic, constipated or rheumatic, would
|, oftener be guided by the experience of inva-
lids who have thoroughly tested Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, they would in every in
stance obtain the speediest aid derivable
from rational medication. This medicine is
a searching and at the same time a thorough
ly safe remedy, derived from vegetable
sources, and possessing, in consequence of it's
basis of pure spirits, properties as medici-
nal stimulant not to be found in the fiery To-
cal bitters and stimulants often resorted to
by the debiIitated, dyspeptic and languid.

THE GRAIN CRoP-The harvest is over
and the general wheat yield is larger on the
average than it has eyer been before in the
Willamette Valley. This is due almost
wholly to the favorable weather conditions.
that have prevailed through the entire sea-
son. The record in Benton county has;
never been beaten, if ever equaled- The
waving grain long ago gave promise of this-
immense yield. Some fields in the county
are reported to have reached as high as 60
bushels per acre. but the average for fall
sown grain is between 80 and 35 bushels,
while spring grain will not go above %
bushels. The circumstances all around
have favored the farmer this year. He
reaps the full fruitage of bountiful harvest
and at the same time enjoys the luxury of
good prices as a reasonable merit for his
prolonged efforts. His prosperity will en-
ter into the thrift that actuates financial
strength in the busy marts of trade, lift
ong-standing mortgages, make debt easieri

wheat stands to-day four cents lower thar
it did ten days ago. The Corvallis market
has been stronger and steadier thar any
other market in the valley. and the amount
of wheat in the aggregate that has changed
hands has been exceptionally large. While
wheat in the Albany market was only 81
cents one week ago, it was So in this city,,
with downward tendency. The price. att
