Once unon a lime.


Heard I once my old nurse telling
stories by the fire NJ night,
All about big. bearded giants
TIL | shlvcred in alright:
Then her voice came from distance
From drowsy. fUr-on cline,
Echoing the sweet old cadence,
"OnCc upon time"
Read ] once 4 golden story
OF King Arthurs wonder court.
LaunCclot and GuincvCrc,
All the knights of brave report:
But amidst the loving, hating,
Still ! heard the insistent chime
Like cuckoo clock, repeating,
"OnCc upon n time"
VIII our lives when we have lived then
Seem like stories we have read?
Stories which our nurses told MS
As W" lay all snug In he'd.
VIII they seem as vague ns dreams are,
All the days we thought sublime?
Shall we hear the faint. low whisper,
"Once upon time?
When the earth and day and sunlight
Grayly fade away;
When the years that we have lived here
Seem Ike ono hrirf day:
Shall We hear again AZ twilight
Echo Of our nurses rhyme.
Here you lived ana loved and llbnrcd."
"OnCc upon II time?

health, but looking for disease in the
wrong direction. He takes medicine for
his nerves, which seem rgone to pieces"
He vdoctors" for his heart, which is
acting irregularly. He constantly stirs
mp his liver with pills and powder. But
he does not get any better. He is look
ing for the cause of his complaints in
the wrong direction.
1t is common thing for some one
who has used DIR. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery for q stomach trouble to
find that when the diseased stomach is
cured the vweak heart is made sound,
the sluggish liver stimulated, and the
throbbing nerves tranguilized. This fact
alone suggests the truth which every
leading medical scientist knows and rec
ognizes-that diseases which seem re-
mote from the stomach are often caused
by the disease of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. When
the diseased stomach and the digestive
and nutritive system are cured of disease,
the other organs are cured with them.
Food is the basis of life and of
strength. But it is not the quantity of
food eaten which supports the life and
health of the body. The body is sus-
tanned by that portion of the food which
after being eaten is converted into
nourishment and properly assiInilated.
When the stomach and its allied organs
Of digestion and nutrition are diseased
or rweak," only part of the food eaten
is converted into nutrition, and the body
and its organs are therefore only partly
nourished. DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery cures the diseases of the
stomach and digestive and nutritive sys-
tenn which prevent the proper nourish-
ment of the body In that way the
body is once more strengthened in the
only way possible, by food properly
digested and perfectly assiInilated.
Any person suffering from disease in
chronic or aggravated form, is invited to
consult DR.. Pierce by letter free. All
correspondence strictly private and con-
fidential. Address DR.. r. V. Pierce,
Buffalo, n. Y.
There is no alcohol in vGolden Med
ical Discovery" and it is entirely free
from opium, cocaine, and all other mar
cotics.
Accept no substitute for Golden Med
ical Discovery" The main motive of
substitution is the desire of the dealer to
make little more profit out of ron by
selling you a less meritorious medicine.

George H. Knaggs, an inspector I'm
this morning and will inspect the
contents of the box car which broke
down near Pendleton night before
last while eastbound. An axle gave
way, but the car reached Pendleton
without further incident. Mr.
Knaggs was sent for to take charge
of the transferring of its contents to
another car, at this point
Mr.. Knaggs' duties in this instance
are simply to see that all the contents
of the car which is loaded with i'm
ported goods from China, are trans
ferred to another car without break
age or loss by theft or from any other
cause, and incidentally to see that the
old and new bills of lading exactly
compare, as a precaution against
smuggling. The contents of the car
consist of 20 tons of mating, upon
which clearance papers must be
given by Mr.. Knaggs to the final des-
tination, which is Norfolk, Va.
The goods in this car were a por-
ton of shipload of $500 tons of
goods from China, every pound OF
which was consigned by rail from
Portland to Atlantic coast points.
Nearly all the goods consisted of
curios, teas and mating.
Mr.. Knaggs has been a resident OF
Oregon SO years and was never in
Pendleton until this morning, though
he has repeatedly been through the
place by rail. to all the towns of the
eastern part of the state, and he has
been to Umatilla, Wallula and Walla
Walla many years ago, before and
since the railroads were built. He
is familiar from acquaintance and OBJ
servation with all the larger towns in
the state aside from Pendleton, and
also many of the smaller towns and
is viewing Pendleton with a great deal
of unfeigned interest

o. r.. & N. IMPROVEMENTS.
Projected Work Planned by Presidem
MOhler to BE Completed.

1t transpires on good authority that
the reconstruction plans of the o. r.
Il N. Company begun two years ago
by President Mohler and now being
continued by General Manager f. II.
Calvin have been so enlarged as to
include change of line near Coyote,
where a cutoff will be built which
will reduce the mileage very ma
terially, take out curves, and enable
the management to make great saw
ing in time; this cutoff will extend
beyond Umatilla and to a point near
Echo.
Another set of curves will be cut
out just this side of Hood River and
the only obstructing grade out of The
Dalles will be reduced. Ballasting of
the lines is proceeding with vigor on
the division east of La Grande, and
new rails will be put in the line where
they have not yet been laid. 1t is Mr..
Calvin's intention to make the main
line between Huntington and Port
land as solid as the main line of the
Pennsylvania railroad.
Most of the track now is In as good
condition as any Eastern trunk line.
As fast as the ballasting Is put in u
Is lined up evenly so that 1t presents
the same handsome appearance as an
Eastern roadbed. With better track
comes better time for freight and pas
senger trains.

PRICES AT TANANA.
Cost Of Food In Alaskan Camp Was
Very High.

The Seattle Star, speaking of the
prices OF food in the Tanana mining
district of Alaska, says:
Flour was $35 per 100 pounds;
dried apples, rice, corn meal sugar
and lard were so cents per pound;
bacon could be procured at the rate
of 95 cents and 81 per pound.
Candles were s25 per box and picks
and shovels were $40 each. Salt was
81 per pound for time, but some-
one brought In a load. which sold
like hot cakes at so cents per pound.
On his way down Barber passed
through Nome and said the conditions
there was the reverse. Tn Nome con-
densed milk is 5 cents per can, maple
sugar three pounds for 25 cents. The
there desire to sell out
their stock as soon as possible, as
conditions are very poor.
He estimates that at least $4,000
900 has been taken out of the Tanana
district during the past summer. He
says that the country is developing
rapidly and this fall people are taking
in machinery and implements to use
in the mines, rather than household
