A Cure for Love.

Yesterday the following receipt was
handed us for publication, by young
man who has go successfully tried the
remedy that we are every day expecting
an invitation to his wedding. If any
care to further investigate the matter,
apply at THE Chronicle Office, when we
will refer you to the aforesaid gentleman.
The cure is as follows:
"Take II ounces dislike, 1 pound of
resolution, grains of common sense, 2
ounces of experience, a large sprig OF
time and three quarts of the cooling
water of consideration. Set them over
the gentle fire of love, sweeten it with
sugar of forgetfulness, skim it with the
spoon of melancholy, put it in the bot
tom of your heart, cork it with the cork
OF clear conscience and let it remain and
you will quickly find ease and be re-
stored to your senses again.
These things can be had of the drug
gist, at the house of understanding,
next door to reason, on Prudence street,
in the village of Contentment. Take
when spell comes on" We would add,
shake we'll before taking.
/ 1t might be deed of charity to re-
fer the above to the Walla Walla couple
to whom the following article, taken
! from the Statesman, has reference:
A few nights ago a we'll known hotel
proprietor being on the parlor floor of
| his hotel noticed a strong smell of ee-
Gaping gas. After short search he
traced the escaping gas to the parlor:
i The parlor was dark and the fumes OF
gas were almost suffocating. He raised
a window, turned of the escaping gas,
and then became aware of occupants
in the room. Going to the sofa he
found a young man with maiden
perched on his lap, both being partially
| emothered with escaping gas. The love
sick pair were dragged by the back OF
the neck to the open window and soon
revived. The hotel man warned them
never again TO take such a big dose OF
! love at one time or it would surely, on
the second dose, have worse effects. The
couple when they went into the room
blew out the gas with the result as
above stated.

jackson EoGine Company.

Somehow Dalles people, especially
those who are old residents, have soft
spot in their hearts for the old reliable
Jackson Eagine Co., No l, which has
proved friend in need in so many con-
hagrations since its organization in 1868.
Among the thirty members who at
tended last nights meeting we're many
who joined the company in the early Cos
and who are still active. Times without
number have they fought the hery
demon, asking neither pay nor praise;
but receiving many times unwarranted
censure. They are yet ready to assist
when circumstances demand it. At
this meeting it was decided to give a
grand ball on the evening of Dec. 30th,
and u committee consisting OF Geo.
Liebe, Sr., G. F. Lauer, John Blaser, W.
Fl. Butts and A. Sandrock were ap-
pointed to make the necessary arrange
ments, being instructed by the company
to make it the grandest affair the city
has ever known, sparing neither pains
nor expenses.

The COMMERCIAL CLUB.
Condition of This Organi-
zation--W What 1T Does For Us.


= Nothing which has ever started in The
Dalles along social lines and tending to
build up the city and its interests has so
accomplished the end desired as the
Commercial and Athletic Club. Three
years ago we had no organization where
might be discussed any measure relatingl
to the welfare of our city or which could
be called the headquarters for all such
movements. Beside, there was-not a
rendezvous for our young men moi place
where the hours could be whiled away
in games or be spent in peruslng the
latest magazines and the best of Literal
ture. Worse than this, when strangers
visitedNus We had no place to take them
for entertainment and where could be
met the leading citizens and few hours
be spent in giving them an idea of the
city and surrounding country andof our
wonderful resources.
At that time it was decided to fill this
want by starting club, and one hundred
charter mem bers were secured. who put
iin $40 each, the monthly dues being
placed at $1.50. The name lsignified the
purpose for which 1t was organized, The
Dalles Commercial and Athletic Club,
and such it has proven. The upper
floor of the old Grant building, on the
corner of First and Washington street,
was leased and fitted mp very comfort
ably, which answer ed(the purpose for q
little over a year. when it was found
wholly inadequate and, the lower floor
was also added and the entire building
transformed into Club rooms, which not
only equal any nfthe state, but surpass
most of them and are an ornament to
the city and the pride of every member.
Now when visitors come to our city the
first place they are taken to is the club,
and if any special entertainment is
necessary the club furnishes it. Beside,
what fund of pleasure it furnishes for
the residents of The Dalles, who spend
SO many hours within it's wallis

a member or not, is proud of our club.
