THE ISLANDS OF THE SEA.

God is shaping the great future of the
islands of the sea;
He has soWn the blood Of martyrs and the
fruit is liberty;
In thick clouds and in darkness, He has
sent abroad His word;
He has given naughty nation to the can
non and the sword.
He has seen people moaning in the thou
sand deaths they die;
He has heard from child and woman a ter
rible dark cry;
He has given the wasted talent of the stew
ard faithless found
To the youngest of the nations with His
abundance crowned.
He called her to do justice where none but
she had power;
He called her to do mercy to her neighbor
at the door; ~
He called her to do vengeance for her own
sons foully dead;
Thrice did He call unto her before she
hardened.
She has gathered the vast midland, she
has searched her borders round!

AIDED BY MRS. PINKHAM,

Mrs. w. E. PAXTON, youngstown,
North Dakota, writes about her strug-
gle to regain health after the birth of
her little girl: ...... ...
DEAR MRS. P1NKHAM:-It is with
pleasure that I add my testimony to
your list, hoping that it may induce
others to avail themselves of your val
liable medicine. 1859 sex: ts's}t
,'After the birth of my little girl,
three years ago, my health was very
poor. I had leucorrh@a badly, and a
terrible bearing-down pain which
gradually grew worse, until I could do
no work. Also had headache nearly
all the time, and dizzy feelings. Men
situations We're very profuse, appear
ing every two weeks.
ST took medicine from good doctor,
but it seemed to do no good. I was
becoming alarmed over my condition.
when I read your advertisement in a
paper. I sent at once for q bottle Of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
ponnd, and after taking two-thirds Of
the bottle I felt so much better that I
send for two more. After using three
bottles I felt as strong and well as any
one.
81 think it is the best-medicine for
female weakness ever advertised, and
recommend it to every lady meet suf-
fering from this trouble"
Maternity is a wonderful experience
and many women approach it wholly
unprepared. Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify women.
The advice of Mrs. Pinkham is freely
Offered to all expectant mothers, and
,sher advice is beyond question the most
valuable to be obtained. If Mrs. Pax
ton had written to Mrs. Pinkham be-
fore confinement she would have been
saved much suffering. Mrs. Pinkham's
address is Lynn, Mass.

1 An expert report on the mineral
productions of tile United States dur
ing the year 1897, recently issued,
shows total valuation of $678 ,966, 644,
a slight increase over that of the pre-
ceding year. This aggregate was more
than double thatgof the United King

erably larger than that Of all the
other European countries com bined.
The most important minerals in pro-
duction and value .Were-in their or
der-coal, iron, gold, copper, petro-
leum, silver and lead. The yield OF
copper was the largest ever reported
for a single year, and gave the United
States the first place.in this industry.
More than so per cent. Of the copper
supply Of the world is now take n from
our mines, and nearly half of the an

Deafness cannon be cured

by 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 inf1amed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out OF ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

The controversy between Astoria and
Portland over the question of preventing
any further government aid in keeping
the Columbia river open to navigation,
is attracting widespread attention, and
will demand the consideration of the
people of the state.
A gentleman from Portland today
stated that it seemed very strange that
after the government had spent $3 ,O0O,-
600 at the Cascades; had expended
$1,000, 900 on a jetty for the purpose of
deepening a channel, and contemplates
the expenditure of another two or three
millions above The Dalles, that it should
now waste all this work in refusing any
further aid in keeping the channel open
that has already been made deep enough
between Portland and the sea for the
passage of even war vessels.

river closed, which would result in the
further and higher taxation of farmers
simply for the purpose of supporting a
railroad built between Astoria and Port

good, but Astorians cannot expect 1T to
be maintained at the expense of the rest
of the state, nor can any but natural
