To all those engaged in this dangerous prac-

Make every possible effort to do so; but II you

The number of young men who are incapact-

this unfortunate condition OF things can be

Eugene city Guard.
Though Oregon's Executive stands
high on his dignity when it comes to re-
ceiving the President of the United
States, yet there are times when he
brides himself on "beng plain man. y
In 1877 he attended the Centennial of
the adoption of the Constitution at
Philadelphia: 1t ended with banquet,
at which 500 covers were laid. Oregon's
Governor was invited to attend, and
was celebrating whether TO go when
he met John A. Kasson of Iowa.
"Kasson," he said, lis every man who
attends the banquet expected to wear a
swallow-tail coat?"
most assuredly, Governor.
"Then / don't think | will go. |
have not worn swallow-tail coat for
about thirty years, and / will neither
buy nor borrow one for tomorrow
night"
"Oh, but you must come" said Kas
son.
Gov. Pennoyer agreed to attend if
Gov. Larrabee, OF Iowa, another 'plain
man." would go; so Oregon's Executive
and Kasson went to the Iowa Governors
Headquarters to ask him what he intend
ed to do.
"Gov. Larrabee, are you going to the
banquet tonight" asked Gov. Penno-
yer when the room was reached.
81 am, sir"
Twill you wear a swallow-tai coat?'
Not much"
"Then we go together
Gov. Pennoyer and Gov. Larrabee
were assigned TO seats near each other.
When the feast was at its height and
champagne was sizzling and walters
wearing claw-hammer coats were dart
ing here and there with savory dishes,
the Governor of Oregon cast his eye
over the assembly Of diners, every one
of whom was in evening dress, and
turning to his friend from Iowa,
solemnly remarked: "Governor, we are
the only men in the room who can be
distinguished from the walters"
Gov. Pennoyer's last appearance in
swaIow-tail coat was in 1855, when he
was teaching school in Portland. He
wore it when he attended church on his
first Sunday in the city, and was so
abashed at the wide swath he was cut
ting in the backwoodS town OF the
early day, that he took the first oppor-
tunity to present the coat TO farmer
who lived near town.

THE Five DOLLAR RATE
EXTENDED FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE YEAR, BUT CONFINED TO
CATARRHAL TROUBLES. A

In the almost overwhelming response
made to the offers of Drs. Copeland and Hall
during the last two months to treat ALL DIS
EASES and furnish medicines at the uniform
rate of So month, there was abundant evil
dence that the public appreciates the medi-
cal skill that is made accessible to all, rich
and poor alike. The strength of the physi-
clans and the resources of their laboratories
have been taxed to their utmost. Drs Cope-
land and Hall would gladly continue the
rate as it stands, but to meet the demands it
occasions is almost a practical impossibility.
They have decided, however, to show their
recognition of the popularity of the method
inaugurated by continuing for the re-
mainder of the year the five dollar rate FoR
CATARRHAL TROUBLES ALONE. Their charges
for the treatment of other diseases will be
moderate and in proportion to tire cost Of
the medicines required, and for the re-
mafnder Of the year-up to January 1.-The
charges for medicines and treatment for
catarrh will be the same as in the past two
months-$5a month UNTIL CURED.
