Bullion and !.

Bullion occupies n palace.
In a fiat live l;
People stand aside for Bullion
When he passes by.
Bullion has big red devil
That goes like streak;
Bullion's incomes more per minute
Than is mine per week.
Yet he's poor and I am wealthy;
When my work IS done,
When. at night, 1 hurry homeward
There's a little one
Who stands at the window, peering
Fondly down the street,
While he kicks the cheap wainscotins
With his little feet.
Once in Bullions splendid palace
There were childish cries;
Now the autumn leaves are falling
Where a baby lies.
Some men envy you. o Bullion;
Some men hate you. too
Here's word of heartfelt pity
That l give TO you.

Storehouses Of the Indians.

An Indian cache is queer looking
thing. 1t would arrest the attention Of
the least inquisitive traveller, who
would at once investigate If he did
not know wnat II was. And yet cache
means to hide. 1t is certainly a mis-
homer in this case. When the Indian
stored his meat, arms and other outfit
in the forest maZes and Jared away
he left these possessions so that he
could readily find them when he re.
turned. The modern cache is perched
on poles, bound in straw and topped
with canvas. They are fairly Sc.

in time of war between tribes the con-
tents of the cache would be consid-

gion caches are marked by cairns, the
stones being SO piled as to protect tle

An Alaskan missionary makes thi.

DERUSA is known from the Atlantic
/ to the Pacific. Letters Of congrat-
ulation and commendation testify
ing to the merits of Peruna as catarrh
remedy are pouring in from every State
of the Union.
DR. Hartman is receiving hundreds
of such letters daily. All classes write
these letters, from the highest to the
lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher-al agree that Peruna is
the catarrh remedy of the age.
The stage and rostrum, recognizing
catarrh as their greatest enemy, are es-
pecially enthusiastic in their praise and
testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh is well-nlgh universal; almost
omnipresent.
Peruna is the only absolute safeguard
known. A cold is the beginning of
catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds,
is to cheat catarrh Of its victims.
Peruns not only cures cafarrh, but
prevents IT, Every household should
be supplied with this great remedy for
coughs, colds and so forth.
The Ex-Governor OF Oregon is an
ardent admirer of Peruna. He keeps it
continually in the house.

It will be noticed that the Ex-Gov-
ernor says he has not had occasion TO
use Peruna for other ailments. Tha
reason for this is, most other ailments
begin with a cold.
Using Peruna 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 Peruna in the house. Use it for
coughs, colds, la grippe and other
climatic affections of winter, and thers
will be no other ailments in the house.

The work on the Whitman & Adams
new store in Meonian block is fast ap-
preaching completion and the date on
which it will be ready for occupancy
is only a matter of few days. Some of
the goods are already in, and the pro-
prietOrS expect TO open in another
week. That the store will be one of
the finest in the state can be easily
seen at the present time, from the fit
tings which are being put in place
and by the arrangement of the floors.
one of the striking features which is
noticed on the street floor are two
large plate glass cases which stand
near the entrance. These were made
by F. o. Bailey & CO., Of Portland, and
are the best thing to be had in that
line. They have round corners and are
made entirely Of French plate glass
set in golden oak. The shelves are Of
heavy plate glass. supported by nickel
brackets and the cases are lighted by
electricity. 1t is said that there are
no better cases in Maine and they GER
tainly form a very handsome detail of
the equipment of the store.

AMI her sister having gone down the

The barn. also. was saved. The loss
