DUFUR, Nov. 20, 1894

DUFUR, Nov. 20, 1894
Editor TINEs-M UNTAISEER:
Our town is full of Inhabitants, every
available domicile- being filed. The purpose
of the majority, who have moved In, is to
avail themselves of the school, which Is now
u ler than it has ever been. Many are be
ginning TO urge the building If new school
house, as the one now IN use is over crowded
and in many ways unfit for the purposes in
tended.
Mr.. Merrel, the Lew minister in charge
of the U. B. church, preached his first ser
mon to large audience last Sunday eve
ming. The reverend gentleman, though
Young in his calling, is specially gifted in
s,ratory, and to all appearances all the
graces of plety and devotion, that are 50
commendabie in a minister of the gospel.
By:ycIirg i, again the rage since the
hunters have housed their dogs and laid
,side their guns. The Brighams, the Hin
mans, Halnes and several Others can ride
the tres cherous animal with grace and ap
parent ease. We believe Balch has played
out on the wheel or the wheel has played
him out, which is about the same thing.

A She Devil,

Mable Howard, variety actress at
Wallace, Idaho, is a she devil. A dis
patch from there, of the 18th, says:
''Mable Howard, a variety actress
well known here, and in the sound
cities, butchered Jack Burk, a mining
man, Friday night with razor. She was
a quick-tempered woman, who did not
falter in the barroom fight She had the
reputation of being tough and gloriied
in it. At the theater at Wallace she
"roped" Burk in the boxes and when the
last round of drinks were ordered he re-
fused to pay for them, saying that he had
no more money. Mable was drunk, took
a razor from her stocking and slashed
the man ferociously about the neck. Be-
fore the physicians arrived Burk was
about dead from loss of blood, and will
probably die."

Oearness Cannot .ss Cured

Py local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There IS
only one way TO cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucuous thinning of the Eustachian tube
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbllng sound or imperfect hearing,
and when 1t is entirely clio ed, deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored tn
its normal condition, hearing will be de.
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which Is nothing but
an lnfiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catsrrh)
that cannot be cured by Halps Catarrh

Portland system of Robbery

The Arlington Record says: Wheat in
New York Is, cash, 59a; Chicago. 554; San
Francisco, So; Portland, A IA. 1t will be
observed that wheat is II cents per bushel
higher in San Francisco than in Portland;
In fact, No. I shipping Is quoted at 81 there
and only A 4 In Portland. It is claimed
and perhaps correctly, that wheat can be
shipped from San Francisco for cents per
bushel less than from Portland, but even if
that is true. wheat should bring 80 cents in
Portland now.
1t would seem that when wheat is below
the price of production, our shippers should
at least give all it is werth, if for no other
reason, for decsncy's sake. 1t has always
been consii iered dishonorable to rob the
weak and helpless, but it seems our Port
land shippers are an exception.

Says the La Grande Chronicle: Charles
Cunningham, who is called the sheep king
of Umatilla county, and deserves the title,
passed through La Grande Saturday, going
east. Mr.. Cunningham sells many blooded
rams in the Baker City section and through
out Idaho, and bis trip is for the purpose of
collecting up on his sales. Year by year
this energetic sheepraiser has added to his
herds. until now he counts among his pos
sessions "a. 600 head OF sheep, 5000 of which
are thoroughbre0s. He reports all 10 the
very best of condition. The price of sheep
has raised rs cents head in the past 80
days, and they are now worth 81 so. Con-
sequently Mr.. Cunningham hopes for better
days in his industry.

LONDON POLICEMEN.
They Cost the English Metropolis Ten Mil
lions Year For Their Services.

They Cost the English Metropolis Ten Mil
lions n Year For Their Services.
1t costs close upon SO, 900, 900 a
year to police London. There are in
the metropolitan police force 15, O40
men of all ranks, and their pay, cloth
ing and equipment alone cost the
taxpayers of the big city FL, ,343, 959 a
year. Then there is the pay of the
commissioners, doctors, clerical staff
and workmen generally, the mainte-
nance of stations and offices and the
thousand and one miscellaneous items
of cost in the operation of the de-
partment, which brings the total cost
of the machinery for guarding the
peace of the British metropolis few
pounds short of e2, 600, 600 year.
There are 1855 ordinary police
men on the force. They are called
"constables," there being only one
grade below that of sergeant. The
pay of constable varies between "a
shillings week, the pay of new re-
cruit, and eSs 12s. lid. a year, the
maximum pay of an ordinary con-
stable. There were last year 1,O99
men on the London police force re-
ceiving "a shillings a week, which is
scarce $6 American money, although
the mere comparison of money value
is, of course, no criterion of the ade
quacy of the pay for the police.
Clothing is supplied to the constables
free, or if, from any reason of special
duty, the constable does not draw his
supply of clothes from the govern
ment stores he receives 95 a year In
place of the clothing.
The matter of allowance is an i'm
portant one in the remuneration re-
ceived by every member of the force.
Constables, for instance, receive an
allowance of coal money when they
are not living in the stations. Mar
ried men get fourpence a week and
single men threepence halfpenny,
week. Married men living in sta
tions receive 40 pounds of coal
week the year round, single men 40
pounds a week in winter and 20
pounds in summer. This item of coal
allowance amounted to e14,O5O last
year.
The London policeman has by no
means SO good job as far as remu-
neration is concerned as has the New
York policeman, making all allow
ance for the difference in compara-
tive values there and here. Nor has
he nearly SO fine a place in COM
parison with the lot of the average
Londoner as the New York police
man has compared with that of the
average New Yorker. Indeed tie |
London policeman is poorly paid,
even as pay goes in England.-New |

the "PLUMPeRu up TO DATE.
It Is a Cheeky Bluff, but 1t Raises Out On
attractive Facial Contours.

It Is q Cheeky Bluff, but It Raises Out Un-
attractive Facial Contours.
'sNo woman" said a dentist the
other day, need have sunken cheeks
nowadays, and any one of the sex is
foolish if she continues to maintain
facial defect that can readily be rem
edied."
whats the remedyf" asked a Gu
rious man who heard the remark.
"Why, the plumper, of course"
was the laconic reply.
"And what is the plumper9"
1T is dental device that throws
the sunken cheek outward, giving it
an attractive plumpness. Plumpers
were made years ago, before the i'm
provements of modern dentistry, but
the modern plumper doesn't at all
resemble the old fashioned article.
'sThese old fashioned plumpers
were plates to which were attached
concave disks. The plate fitted into
the roof of the mouth so that the disk
pressed against the inside of the
cheek and threw it outward, impart-
ing the appearance of plumpness.
This old disk has been entirely
done away with nowadays, and in
its stead is plate with an artificial
gum which throws the cheek out.
The sinking of the cheeks is usually
due to the recession of the natural
gum, caused by the loss of teeth, but
sometimes the cheek is naturally
sunken, even when the teeth are in
tact. The insertion of plumper in
to the mouth will instantly remove
this facial defect.
'Most dentists make plumpers to
order for patients, but they can be
bought for trifiing sum at any man
ufactory of dental materials. They
are generally made of rubber, al
though celluloid, and in some in
stances gold, is the material used in
the manufacture.
''The method of manufacture is
simple. An impression of the roof of
the mouth and the gums is taken in
wax. A mold is made from the i'm
preston and the mold used in max
ing the plumper plate. Where the
natural gum is sunken the plate is
simply filed out, so that whom it is
inserted in the mouth it will throw
the cheek outward. The plate is held
in place by suction. AS rule. plump
ers are made with artificial teeth also,
although if the patient desires the
plate alone is made.
Where the jaw has been broken
or is misshapen, as the result of an
accident, the plumper proves very
effective in removing the facial de-
feet.
1.-The value of the device is that it
cannot be detected upon a minute ex-
animation of the interior of the
mouth. 1t does not interfere at all
with articulation or the mastication
of food. Plumpers are used by some
actresses, who are aware of their
value as beautifier of the mouth
and cheeks. New York Sun.
