A Timely Reminder.

Each season forces upon our consid-
Grafton its own peculiar perils to
health. The advent of fall finds many
reduced in strength and vigor, poorly
prepared to continue the business of
life. The stomach and bowels, the
great highway of animal economy, is
especially liable to disorder in the fall.
The nervous system has also suffered
in the struggle. Typhoid fever ard
malaria in particular find in the fall
that combination of earth, air and
water that mark this season as es-
pecially dangerous. The falling leaves,
the decaying vegetables contribute
their share of contamination. Hoods
Sarsaparilla furnishes most valuable
safeguard at these important points,
and should be usad -in-ths fell before
serious sickness has laid you low.

A PICTURE.

Grandfather In his broadcloth goes
To hear the parsons Sunday prose.
he sleeps the sermon safely through,
Behind his pillar, out of view.
For never dangerous doctrine rsn
From Parson Tom: he knows his man.
And feeling his salvation sure
He points the morals with snore,
Whereat, with giggles. all the girls
Do shake their rows or dancing curls
Here is the flame of young romance
Oft nourished by subtle glance,
And Cupid Lifts beneath the rose
OF Dame Theology the rose
That Quivers on Clarinda's heart
Responsive to the looks that dart,
Whence Collin, tired of parallels,
The herdsmen's quarrel at the wells,
Contents him with the lovely shape
That glances through Clarinda,s caps.
Among the boys some bench Is cut,
Or one essays the traitor nut
That pops, whereat, with cheeks afame.
The kernels fumbled In his shame,
And rolling underneath pew
Is out Of reach, but still In view.
And through the marble, nut and knife
Lots wife, and yet again Lots wife.
Outside his tale the blackbird spins,
The tributary thrush begins
To praise the blue audaciously
With daring turns Of melody.
And now the parson ends his prose,
The hymn is sung, grandfather goes
serenely home, and quite assured
He protited and never snored,
And thumps the turfy path apace-
Says, sleep In church is sheer disgrace.
Now Collin, free of circumstance,
Pursues Clarinda with romance,
Eorgivtng all the herdsmen's strife,
Lots wife, and yet again Lot's wife.

HARD WINTER COMING.
Tne Ashland Tidings Interviews an Aged
Siwash and Gets Some Pointers on
the Weather.

Su-wap alto, an aged Indian from
OkanOgau country, says that winter
will set in earlier this year than for a
long time past. He had discoursed
with old men from great distances in
all directions. and such was their
unanimous opinion. Su-wap-a-to is
not an astronomer, in the sense that
white people understand that term,
yet by long experience and little else
to do but make observations and store
up results in his memory, he is
equipped with fund of knowledge as
to weather signs, which in his judg-
ment are infallible.
"The Great Spirit" he said, ''gave
men plenty of horses, but they stole
his lightning and killed the cuitan for
food. Then the wheel came. Even
with these old eyes of mine, and with
sick tum tum, saw Indian boys from
the school, side by side with white
faced kloochmen, dressed in breech-
clouts, riding man style, before the
wind. l saw Indian kloochman turn
away in shame, for when they ride
they have the shame to cover
up their legs with blankets. l know
all this would offend the sun, and was
not surprised when he turned his face
away from the, world one day.
thought it would never be seen again,
and was glad when he turned and
looked back, seeming to say-he p1tied
the poor old Indians who had watered
the desert with blood to prevent the
called civilization from poi
soning the pure air of the west. He
pitied the Indians, but his face was red
with rage. That night the storm king
flashed his axes and knives in the
north sky. Next morning when the
sun arose from troubled sleep two
sundogs sat on his right and left.hand.
He turned them loose to roam over all
the sky and warned the good spirits to
go back to their wigwams. The sun
pulled black blanket over his face
md it's folds spread across the sky.
Behind it the dogs growled all day,
Ind the little lightning there was left
was poured out on the world. Two
nights later the frost king foated over
5he world. He camped last night with |
4 great army this side of the north end
Of the world and blew his breath to
The south. He is marching swift and
ierce. He will be here earlier than
aver before, and the Oldest man will
say this is the coolest and longest win
jer ever known"

school, passed through the city this
morning on their way home from a
visit in the Valley.
The Day Bros. launched their new
steamer today, or at least she was
ready for launching last night. The
new boat is said to be handsome
model, S5 feet long and 15a feet beam.
W. T. Peet, cashier of the first
national bank at Corvallis, took an
ounce of aconite yesterday morning by
mistake, and died two hours later.
He thought he was taking blackberry
brandy.
The wheat crop is not as good in
Eastern Oregon this year as it was
thought. When put through the
threshers the fact developed that the
heads were not filed out as they should
have been.
A right of way deed from A. B.
Jones to Clara E. Jones; deed from
d. s. Crapper and wife to School Dis
trict 81, and three mining deeds to the
Stachy Mining Co. to Silica mines at
Mosier were filed today.
A Texas Judge has decided that there
is no law against prize fighting in that
state. This decision was given in a
test case arranged to settle the ques-
tion as to whether Corbett and Fitz-
simmons would be allowed to fight
anywhere in Texas and outside of the
newspapers.
Wasco county fruit attracts atten-
tion not only in the east, but many
from the interior counties are coming
here for their winter supply OF apples,
pears. etc. At present two gentlemen
from Crook county, Messrs. T. r. Curl
and Renlck Jessee, are on Five mile
loading wag ons with fruit.
The salmon run still continues good,
though the catch is falling off slightly.
The cannery is yet running at its full
est capacity with the crew attainable, |
and will probably be kept SO running
for week or two. The catch SO far |
shows about 5000 cases and the total |
for the season will probably be double
that.
The new wharf presents a busy ap-
pearance, large number of carpen-
ters being at it. The caps and flooring
are being put in place, and there is a |
pie of lumber on hand that is simply |
immense. There are about 80 piles to
be driven yet for roadway from First
street through the lot east of the Cos
mopolitan.
About 325 men are at work at the
Locks, and the Day Bros. are hiring
every man they can get. The rumored
starting of work on the railroad at
Astoria caused number Italians to
quit, leaving them temporarily short
Work is being pushed as
rapidly as possible and two big scows
are being built for the dredger.
Wheat is coming in very rapidly
from Klickitat, and the ferryboat is
kept busy handling the four horse
teams. We noticed nine teams wait
ing at one time this morning to get
across the river. The recent rains
have left the roads in spendid condi-
tion, and the farmers are all taking
advantage of the good weather to get ,
their crops to market.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

At the urgent request of many Of
our most fashionable readers, who rec.
ognize the delicacy of our taste in
| dress, we have somewhat reluctantly
consented to devote small portion OF
| our space to answering correspondents
questions. While we realize the truth
of the old adage that fool can ask
questions wise man cannot answer,
we nevertheless undertake to answer
them according to their folly. All
communications should be addressed
to the Fashion Editor"
NORA-As you are only 26, and not
liable to get older for ten or twelve
years, we would advise that you get
rich golden-brown crepon in prefer
ence to black for your autumn dress.
A full vest or chemisette shown inside
bolero front will make fine tout en-
semble. Some other clothing should
be worn with this, of course.
BELLE-No, we do not believe in
using the diminutives for girls names.
Do you?
HOPELESS-Tor remove freckles, treat
them with lemon juice twice a day.
Tincture of iodine will hide, but not
remove them without also removing
the hide. For q bad case of continent
IL CShiCS We nOulo 6uSS SCoU q cACl4-
game, where the operation of skinning
is painless and speedy.
SUBSCRIBER-Pink kchrysanthemums
will be worn by brides in November.
After that they will, most of them, be
satisfied with anything they can get in
the shape of flowers.
DULCINEA-Your question is diff
cult to answer. As far as we have seen
bloomers are not much worn, but then,
you know, they are made so full that
the wear doesn't show. VIII advise
you later.
SANDoN-You ask what November
bride should be married in. We would
suggest that she ''get married in haste
and repent at leisure" AS she is
bound to repent, she might as well
have the leisure in which to do it thor
oughly.
BRUNETTE-No! A mulattress would
not be classed as brunette; but rather
as an alutaceous blonde. The crispa-
ture of the capillary covering, rather |
than the dermic secretions of colored |
matter, or lack of it, is the distinguish
ing feature between a brunette white |
man and blonde Negro.
SARAH-Try again, by slow freight,
Is you do not ex press yourself well.

Judge Bellinger and family came up
as far as Hood River on the local, this
morning to have a days outing, but as
the rain was coming down in torrents,
the pleasure features were knocked out
of the trip.
Last night some of the people going
home from the concert, in passing the
residence of Peter johnson, on the
hill, noticed smoke coming from the
windows. They tried to rouse the in
mates but being unable to do so broke
in the door and extinguished the fire.
There was no one at home. The fire
had evidently caught from the stove.
This is one Of the days that makes a
weary reporter wish he was adopted by
Vanderbilt, or married to 8 rich

any other moderate calamity. The

all day, driving everybody indoors,
and chasing every item or chance for
one, clear over into Shermrn county.
The gentle zephyr was on jam
boree last night and had rattling
good time. Its spree was not over yet
this morning, for it was whipping the
big poplars around and rpf1ing, the
otherwise placid bosom OF thu Colum-

worked up a small sprinkling of rain
west of here, as there was half-breed
rainbow fooling around the Chenowith
hills for an hour or so.
VIM. Hartman brought in some
fine specimens of corn grown by him

Eight mile creeks. There were two
varieties, the Concord and the Mime

weeks Both specimens were fine, the
ears large and the cob small, resem-
bling eastern corn more than any we
have seen grown in this section. 1t
was grown without irrigation, and the
stalks were on an average, 8 feet in
length.
There was large delegation of Sal
vation Army people on the wharf this
morning, to bid farwell to one of their
number who left for San Francisco
having in charge a couple of brands
plucked from the burning in the
persons of two young women who are
weary of the life they have been lead
ing and will seek new pursuits in the
city. 1t is hoped that they will not
repent of their repentance and that
they will not again turn their feet into
forbidden paths, but the chances are
18 to ! against them.

County officers Left.

A statement of fact that is cruel
arraignment of the state of Nebraska
comes from Ashland. There arrived
at the latter place last week twenty
five immigrants from Nebraska, who
have come to Oregon to go into the
farming business. In the crowd was
the county Judge, county attorney and
two county commissioners of Hooker
county, Nebraska, all of whom actually
deserted their Offices to get out OF the
state. The Unborn hankering of all
men for the honors and emoluments of
public office is admitted; and Nebraska
must indeed be hard state that these
men would not stay in it, even to suck
the pap of official position.-Corvallis
