Mrs. Mitchell of Albina said yester-
day: "a little more than IS months ago

cost her only $3.50, including the eX-
tracing of 10 and she said they were
Just lovely and as good as her natural
teeth. I asked her wher got them

STILL MORE coUNTERFEITING

The Secret Service has unearthed an
other band Sf counterfeiters. and Sc
cured a large quantity Of bogus bills,
which are so cleverly executed that the
average person would never suspect
them being spurious, Things Of great
value are always selected by counter
felters for imitation, notably the cele-
brated Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
which has many imitators but no
equals for indigestion, dyspepsia, con-
stipation. nervousness, and general de-
bility. The Bitters set things right in
the stomach. and when the stomach is
in good order ii makes good blood and
plenty Of It. In this manner the Bitters
restores vigor to the weak and de-
blllted. Beware of counterfeits when
buying. See that a private Revenue
Stamp covers the neck Of the bottle.

ten in a more magic and enchanting
style the history of a wretched life.
Rousseau was born in Geneva in 11l2;
his mother died at his birth, and his
father. an intelligent and honorable
matchmaker, brought him up most
singularly lacked judgment in his deal
ingS with his son. Rousseau relates
that when only years old his father
and he used to spend whole nights
reading together. This must have con-
tributed to give him that peculiar
nervosity which made him so miserable
all his life. His first seven or eight
years were very happy, but unfortun-
ately his father left Geneva, and the
boy remained with his Uncle Bernard,
who sent him and his son to the school
of Pastor Lambercier'S- Here again
We're a few happy moments for Rous-
Seau.
After leaving the pastor he became
the apprentice of a notary, who dis
missed him for his stupidity, and then
he began his apprenticeship with an
engraver. His master was a brutal
man and treated him most cruelty The
boy learned to steal and to lie, and we
might imagine that his intelligence
would be stupefied by the blows which
he received, but he tells us that every
minute which he could rob from his
was uSNOlc0 " IL
is this taste for reading which enabled
him TO acquire an immense fund of
knowledge, which he knew SO well how
