pose OF considering our proposition clause by

HE CLINCHED IT.

Erie, Kans., Feb. 17th.-In July Of
1900, w. H. Ketchum of this place was
suddenly seized with a violent pain in
his back. He says he supposed it was
a "stitch" and would soon pass away,
but it, lasted five months and caused
him great soreness, so that he was
barely able to keep out of bed. He be-
came alarmed and consulted doctor
which only increased his anxiety and
did him no good.
A friend who had some experience
advised him to use Dodd's Kidney
Pills. Mr.. Ketchum began with six
pills day and in a week was we'll and
the soreness all gone. However, this
did not satisfy him for he says:
II thought would clinch the cure
with another box and I did. I have
had no recurrence of the trouble since
and as this is over a year ago am
thoroughly convinced that Dodd's Kid
ney Pills have completely cured me-"

CAPITOL BUILDING, SALEM, OREGON.
A Letter From the Executive Office Of Oregon.

Pe-ru-na is known from the Allan.
tic to the Pacific. Letters of con-
graduation and commentator testi-
flying to the merits of Pe-ru-na as a
catarrh remedy are pouring in from
every State in the Union. DR.. Hart
man is receiving hundreds of such
letters daily. All classes write these
letters, from the highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor
artisan, the clerk, the editor, the
statesman, the preacher agree
that Pe-ru-na is the catarrh remedy
of the age. The stage and rostrum,
recognizing catarrh as their great
est enemy, are especially enthusiast
tic in their praise and testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect
health must be entirely free from
catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh uni
yersal; almost omnipresent. Peru
ma is the only absolute safeguard
known. A cold is the beginning of
catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure
colds, is to cheat catarrh out of its
victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures ca
tarrh, but prevents. Every house
hold should be supplied with this
great remedy for coughs, colds and
so forth.
The Governor of Oregon is an ardent
admirer of Pe-ru-na. He keeps it con-

A REMARKABLE SHOT.

Only Remaining Charge.

Hello, Ike!" said Perkins, as that
individual walked into the store,
how'd you make out gunnin' to-
day?"
"Tole'ble, jest tole'ble, that's all.
I got four black ducks, six broad
tail and ten winters"
II must say thet's pretty good
shootin' fer one day." said Perkins,
relates Judge.
"'Twas putty fair, but I should
have got more yet if my shells hadn't
gin out"
''Thet sop said the constable.
~"Twas hard luck, and minds me o.
one day bout four years ago when
I went down tn the medders gunnin'
with tibet old muzzle-loader er mine.
I fooled round all day, till had only
one charge of powder left. Birds had
been comm long one in q flock, and
now and then tew lone ones, and all
Of 'em out er range, and I didn't git
q bird. I was kinder discouraged;
hadn't had a good shot all day. But
jest as was gittin' out of the stand
I heard goose hollerin', and
crouched down quick, can tell yer,
and purity soon he landed plump
down in the slough-hole in front Of
me, where my decoys was. I was jest
in the south of the deacon's medder
you fellers remember how the
marsh there is very narrer and runs
right clus to the beach-and nv stand
was jest abreast of tibet low place on
the beach they call the blow-hole.

got a bead on the old goose, when he
must have smelt me, for jest as I
was goin' tn let him hev it he be-
gun swimmin' away from me. didn't
want tn lose him, so begun to whis-
tie him back, and, if you'll believe me,
as l was a-sittin' there what should
see comm up by the blow-hole but
red fox. Boys, I'd hev given my
hull farm for another charge of pow
der and shot tibet minute, guess.
The goose by this time had circled
round and begun tn come toward
me agin, and the fox was a-standin'
still. Gradually the old goose was
gittin' in line with tibet fox. BY
thunder!' s I, If I can git 'em in a
line there's a chance of gittin' 'em
both In another minute they was
right in line and I let 'em hev it. Jest
as I fred, bluefish jumped out Of
the water from school on 'em that
was chasin' bait inshore. I shot the
goose plum through the head, famed
the fox so he couldn't run, and killed
tibet bluefsh so he drifted ashore,
and got the hull three"
"Boys," said Perkins, solemnly, ''if
you'll step intu the back room I'll set
up the cider"

SALEM, May 9, 1898.
The Pe-ru-na Medicine Co., Column
bus, O.:
Dear Sirs-I have had occasion to
use your Pe-ru-na medicine in my
family for colds, and it proved to be
an excellent remedy. have not had
occasion to use it for other ailments.
Yours very truly, w. NJ. Lord.
It will be noticed that the Gov
ernor says he has not had occasion
to use Pe-ru-na for other ailments.
The reason for this is, most other
ailments begin with a cold. Using
Pe-ru-na to promptly cure colds, he
protects his family against other
ailments. This is exactly what every
other family in the United States
should do. Keep Pe-ru-na in the
house. Use it for coughs, colds, Ia
grippe, and other climatic affections
of winter, and there will be no other
ailments in the house. Such families
should provide themselves with q
copy of DR.. Hartman's free book,
entitled "Winter Catarrh.'' Address

WALKING IN A WATCH.
One Of the Wonders Which Will b
ON Exhibition ut the st. Louis
Worlds Fair.

A promenade inside a watch that il
all the while doing its ordinary duty
of telling the time is a pleasure in store
for visitors to the forthcoming St.
Louis exposition. It is even stated that
a small restaurant, with walters, cooks
and the ordinary paraphernaia of such
an institution, is to be located inside
this monster timepiece. The watch is
already in course of construction. It's
dimensions, as quoted by the Chicago
News, are, for timepiece, enormous,
the diameter being nearly Is feet and
the height more than 40 feet.
Tiny staircases' will be scattered
throughout the watch, and there will
be spacious galleries, where visitors
may pass and repass with ease. The
wheels will be SO well protected that
no one can suffer injury either to per-
SOD or clothing.
The wheel known as the "balance
wheel'' will, in this monster watch,
weigh ton, while the so-called chair
spring" will be considerably thicker
than rolling pin. Approximately two
minutes will be consumed by the
swings back and forth of the wheel
above mentioned. This wheel will be
pivoted on two huge agate blocks.
Needless to say, the handspring OF
this extraordinary watch will be enors
nous. Three hundred feet will hardly
measure its length, and it is to be made
of ten spring steel bands, two inches
thick, bound together, as it would be
impossible to roll SO large a piece. -
When finished, the watch will lie on
its back. It will possess q polished
metal case similar to those used for
watches OF ordinary dimensions.

meath the snakes outstretched head,
and she drew me down to nit beside
her.
She raised her teweled hand, and
a silence fell on that great throng,
as though the breath had been sud-
denly cut short for all of them.
Then Phorenice made proclama-
ton:
"Hear me, o my people, and hear
me, o high gods from whom I am
come. I take this man Deucalion to
be my husband, to share with ME the
prosperity of Atlantis, and join me
in guarding our great possession.
May all our enemies perish as she is
now perishing above whom we sit"
And then she put her arms around
my neck and kissed me holly on the
mouth.
In turn also spoke: "Hear me, O
most high gods, whose servant am,
and hear me also, o We people. I
take this Empress Phorenice to
wife, to help with her the prosperity
of Atlantis, and join with her in
guarding the welfare of that great
possession. May all the enemies of
this country perish as they have per-
ished in the past"
And then l too, who had not been
permitted by the fates to touch the
lips of my love, bestowed the first
kiss I had ever given a woman to
Phorenice, that was now being made
my wife.
But we were not completely linked
yet.
"a woman is one, and man is one,''
she proclaimed, following for the
first time the old form of words, ''but
in marriage they merge, so that wife
and husband are no more separate,
but one conformity. In token of this
we will now make the symbolic join
ing together, so that all may see and
remember" She took her dagger,
and pricking the Drawn on my fore
arm till the bead of blood appeared,
set her red lips to it and took it into
herself.
"Ah," she said, with her eyes
sparkling, now you are part of me
indeed, Deucalion, and I feel you have
strengthened me already" She pulled
down the neck of her robe. "Let me
make you my return"
pricked the rounded whiteness of
her shoulder. Gods! when I remem-
bered who was beneath us as we sat
on that throne, I could have driven
the blade through to her heart! And
then I, too, put down my lips and
took the drop of her blood that was
yielded to me.
My tongue was dry, my throat was
parched, and my face suffused, and
I thought I should have choked.
But the empress, who was ordinar-
lily so acute, was misled then. 1T
thrills you?" she cried; ut burns
within you like living fire? 1 have
just felt it. BY my face! Deucalion,
if had known the pleasure it gives
to be made a wife, do not think I
should have waited this long for you.
All, yes; but with another man
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1902-02-26

should have had no thrill. I might
have gone through the ceremony
with another, but it would have left
me cold. Well, they say this feeling
comes to a woman but once in her
time. and I would not change it for
the glory of all my conquests and the
whirl of all my power" She leaned
in close to me so that the red curls
of her hair swept my cheek, and her
breath came hot against my mouth.
Tasted you ever any sweet so de-
licious as this knowledge that we are
made one now, Deucalion, past all
possible dissolving?"
l could not lie to her any more just
then. The gods know how honestly
I had striven to play the part COM
manded me for Atlantis good, but
there is limit to human endurance,
and mine was reached. I was not all
anger towards her. I had some pity
for this passion of hers, which had
grown of itself certainly, but which
I had done nothing to check; and the
indecent frankness with which it was
displayed was only part of the livery
of potentates who aaunt what mean
er folk would coyly hide. But always
before my eyes was picture of the
girl on whom her jealousy had taken
such a bitter vengeance, and to in
vent spurious lovers talk then was a
thing my tongue refused to do.
"Words are poor things" I said,
land I am a man unused to women,
and have but small stock of any
phrases except the driest. Remem-
Der, Phorenice, week agone did
not know what love was, and now
that have learned the lesson, some
what of the suddenest, the language
remains still to come to me. NY in
wards speak; indeed they are full of
speech; but I, cannot translate into
bald cold words what they say"
And here surely: the high gods
took pity on my tied tongue and my
misery, and made an opportunity for
bringing the ceremony to an end. A
man ran into the square shouting,
and showing wound that dripped,
and presently all that vast crowd
which stood on the pavements and
the sides of the pyramids and the
roofs of the temples took up the cry
and began to feel for their weapons.
. ''The rebels are int" 'sThey have
burrowed path into the city!"

"They will presently leave no poor

Rs There then was q termination of
our marriage cooings. With rebels
merely biting ct the walls, it was fine
