Hicks Forecasts for November.

In his forecasts for November Hicks,
the st. Louis weather prophet. pre-
diets that not only will the general
storm conditions In prospect for the
month be intensified during the reg
ular and reactionary storm periods.
but that much irregular, threatening
weather will prevail outside of the
normal limit of the regular periods.
Auroral and other meteoric phe-
nomena are likely to prevail In abnor-
NAL measure, attended by atmospheric
and electrical disturbances of marked
energy. Unstable conditions of at
mosphere, with tendency to electrical
storms, will be noticeable on and about
the Sth. From, this time until the
18th much unsettled weather and de-
cided autumnal storms will prevail.
These disturbances will be followed
by high northerly gales, snow storms
and a marked cold wave. Reaction
from cold and anti-storm conditions
will set In, attended by more precipi-
tatiOn, on and about the 10th and 18th.
From the Goth to the oath comes a
regular storm period, during which
there will be renewed and heavy au-
tumnal storms of rain, wind and snow.
The central days of these disturbances
will be about Monday the 2lst, to
Wednesday, the 23d. Very cold
weather will follow, and the month
will close In storm period, bringing
with IL marked change to warmer,
with rain turning to sleet.

The workman often eats his lunch on the
same bench where he does his work. The
office man turns his desk into dining
table. Neither gets the out of doors ex-
ercise he needs, neither takes the proper
time for eating. 1t is small wonder that
the digestion of both gets out of order In
such cases DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
come to their assistance by aiding nature In
taking care of the food.
The cause of nine tenths of the sickness
of the world Is constipation. From this one
cause come indigestion; disorders of the
stomach, liver and kidneys; biliOusness,
headaches, fatulency, heartburn, impurity of
the blood and the serious complications that
follow. To begin with constipation Is lit
tie thing, and little thing will cure 1t. The
"Pleasent Pellets" are tiny, sugar-coated
granues. They will perfectly cure the
worst case of constipation and indigestion.
Ii the druggist tries to sell you some other
pill that pays him greater profit, just think
of what will best pay you.

ASTORIA. Sept. is-Edltor Astorian.-
The CANDY Independent" states that
the As,orian demands that there be no

The farmer. through the government,

rate OF freight that they would from san

We are not surprised that the oregonian
contains editorials every day criticIsing
our presumption" In demanding terminal

the o. r. & y. Company realizes too well
that 1t will be a sad day for them when
ships stop at Astoria and load instead OF
going on to Portland. But there Is one
great consolation for the people In Port
land-what they lose in shipping will be
more than made up In the Increased trade
