The JOURNAL has in the past year
gained state circulation. 1t is the
only paper in Oregon besides the Or
egonian that is taken in every part of
the state as the postoffice records
show. You are asked to circulate it
Because:
l. 1t is clean paper.
2. 1t is an Independent paper.
8. 1t is an opposition paper. 1t OPP
poses corrupt politics, corrupt methods
and corrupt men in all parties.
1t supports aggressively the GOOD
it finds in public and private life and
in all parties. 1t attacks the evil
wherever it finds it.
The JOURNDL advocates old
fashioned honesty and JeffersoniOn
simplicity. 1t don't know the mean
ing of compromise of principle. 1t is
always on the side of the people as
against the aggressions OF power that
tend to destroy, freedom and equal
rights.

The Method Iof a Great Treat

Which Cured Him After Everything
Else Failed.

Painful diseases are bad enough, but when
a man is slowly wasting away with nervous
weakness, the mental forbodings are ten times
worse than the most severe pain. There is
no let up 10 the mental suffering day or night.
Sleep is almost impossible and under such a
strain men are scarcely responsible for what
they do. For years the writer rolled and
tossed on the troubled sea Of xual weakness
until it was a question whether he had not

all his troubles. But providential insPira
ton came to his aid in the shape OF a combi-
nation Of medicines that not only completely
restored the general health, but enlarged his
weak and emaciated parts to natural size and
yigor, and he now declares that any man who
will take the trouble to send his name and
address may have the method OF this wonder
