M. p. Leopard, employed at the New

says: 81 have used Doan's Ointment
and cannot say too much in it's favor. l
had itching hemorrhoids for years and
also a breaking out on my legs, and it
anything to help it. l have seen the
time when l have gotten out of bed
and scratched until my legs were one
mass of blood and | felt as though l
could have taken a knife and scraped
the skin off, but it only made it worse.
The doctor gave me some Salve and
bought two or three different ointments
and put them on, but nothing did any
good. Finally | procured a box of
Doan's Ointment. | do not think | had

"There'II he No PIE"

An energetic pastor who was maxi
ing preparations to build n new church
received all kinds OF advice from par
ishioners, and the greatest amount
came from those who had contributed
the least toward the erection of the
church. SO Mt the regular services on
the following Sunday he said:
Il have been receiving lots Of advice
during the last few weeks. l have
been told by certain members Of tho
congregation that it will not do to
have too many fingers In the pie. 1
can assure you that / Will attend to
that part Of 1t. There Will be no pie"

How Wines Are CoIored

Most people think white grapes make
white wine and dark grapes make red
wine," said a visitor. "That is a popu-
lar error.
RED vino is made by fermentlng
grape juice and grape skins together
the skins giving the color, and white
wine is made by fermenting grape
juice alone.
THE Juice of white and OF dark
grapes doesn't differ In hue. In each
sort OF grape the Juice Is almost color
less, like the weakest lemonade.
Champagne, one of the dearest OF
the white wines, Is made Of a grape 30
dark as to be nearly black. But the
juice Of that nearly black grape is
quite as pale as the Juice Of the blond
est white grape."-Minneapolis Jour

THE REsouRcEFuL MOLE.
He Cots Away with Ease When You
81 Think You Have Him.

He Cots Away with Ease When You
IN Think You Have Him.
Speaking Of quick and resourcefui
animals, the mole leadse easily so far as
my experience goes" said IL man from
the country, land I dare say there are
many men who have made observa-
tions that will confirm my contention.
AS you probably know, the mole plows
In the surface of the earth, generally
making a small ridge anywhere from
two to three inches high. He moves
with remarkable rapidlty even when
the ground In which he Is burrowing Is
hard. When operating In soft ground
he moves along ut n surprising gait.
But this Is not the point l wanted to
make. 1 was thinking of the remarka-
bly, good hearing of the mole and tho
ease with which he can get away just
at the moment when you think you
have him cornered. OF course now and
then you can drive Il spike through the
mole before he Is aware of 1t. If YOU
do YOU will have to walk as light as n
cat and Will have to act as quickly %
h same animal when the time comes
to act. In nine cases out of ten the
mole Will hear the first football. At
once he will quit blowing. lie is gone.
Search as you may, YOU. cannot find
him. 1 have seen men dig for fifty
yards, following the ridge and It's off
shoots. without finding any other trace
Of the mole than the ridge. TIL mole's
hearing Is peculiarly keen, md / sup
pose this Is so because he cannot see.
But eve more wonderful from my
standpoint Is the ease md quickness
with which lie gets away. How does he
manage 1t? Where does he go2 You
know, the element of superstition in
my makeup is slim, and 1 don't believe
in ghosts, but somehow i have always
Inclined Just n bit to the ghost theory
when thinking of the mysterious antics
of these blind burrowcrs. The mole is
more like n ghost In his conduct than
anything 1 have ever known, though,
of course. the mole Is a real and not an
imaginary and mythical thing."-New

RASPBERRIES ON MARKET
BEING RECEIVED IN SUFFICIENT
QUANTITIES TO FILL ALL
OUTSIDE ORDERS
an Excellent Outside Demand for
Home Grown Fruit.

| Red raspberries and blackcaps are
beginning to appear on the market in
| sufficient quantities to admit of local
commission houses filling outside or
ders on limited scale. Red rasp-
berries are quoted wholesale today at
$3.50 a crate, put unless warmer
weather sets in again soon, the sup
ply will be limited for some time yet,
and consequently high prices will rule.
The cherry season is now at it's
height. Royal AIMS and Black Re-
publicans, packed in ten pound boxes,
are wholesaling at IS cents a box, and
commission houses report an excellent
outside demand. May Dukes, used
mostly for pie purposes and canning,
are about gone. Late Dukes will COM
mence coming in in about ten days.
Wax beans are now in the market,
although owing to the limited supply,
the price wholesale is nine cents
pound. New sweet peas are now very
plentiful and cheap. wholesaling at
cents a pound or six-inch box for 80
cents. New Walla Walla potatoes are
now in excellent shipping condition
and decline in prices is looked for
soon. New potatoes were quoted today
at $3.50 per hundred, wholesale.
Among other varieties of vegetables,
coming in freely are turnips, bunch
carrots, beets, radishes, young onions
and lettuce.

MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION
ARE AT THE DALLES FOR
THAT PURPOSE.
Announcement of Rates on Freight
Will Not Be Made Until Wheat
Crop Is Ready.

Two members of the Board of Port
age Road Commission, State Treasurer
Moore, Secretary Of State Dunbar and
Governor Chamberlain of Oregon are
at The Dalles today for the purpose of
officially accepting the portage rail-
road from the contractor.
The acceptance of the road does not
necessarily carry with it a final settle
ment upon the contract, as under the
provisions Of the contract the board
has the privilege and will reserve the
right to withhold final payment for a
period Of 80 days, or until such time as
the state engineer can check up and
certify to the strict conformance of
the contractor with the contract. The
balance remaining unpaid upon the
contract, So far as the state Is con-
cerned, amounts to about 100000.
1t is probable no announcement OF
rates on the portage road will be made
for another month, as it is stated that
there will be no occasion for the
schedule until after the grain begins
to move. No definite action has been
taken toward the actual operation Of
steamers on the middle river, but nego-
tiations now on will be closed as soon
as there is business to warrant the
operation of the water lines.

Many Walla Wallans who believe in
dining we'll now patronize the Restaur-
ant Francois. 22O West Main street,
quite literally and are free to admit
that the city now has one restaurant
that merits the best of patronage.
Since reopening on Monday last on
it's new schedule Of prices and service,
the Restaurant Francois patronage
has shown decided gains over business
done formerly and it's management
has every reason to believe that their
new service and more moderate prices
have made hit with the local popu-
lace.
Messrs. Nogues & Boucharin, the
proprietors of the Restaurant Francois,
have made SO many improvements 10
their place of business since first open
ing up in Walla Walla some SIX
months ago, that they now nave
restaurant that is second to none IN
the Pacific Northwest. Knowing the
restaurant business quite thoroughly
in all it's phases they have satlshed
themselves, after studying local con-
ditions, that this city will support SUD-
stantially the right kind of restaur-
ant and that is the kind they propose
to establish here.
If possible it is their intention to
make the Restaurant Francois pop
ular resort-one where the best meals
and lunches can always be had at the
most reasonable prices.
To this end their new schedule in
Guides a first-class lunch which is
served from II a. m. to p. M: dinner
400 to $50. This will include COM
plete and practically a first-class meal
for % cents.
A special feature is the Restaurants
new bid for regular patrons whereby
$500 meal tickets are now sold for
| $3.50; and $500 meal tickets for $2.15.
This is one move greatly appreciated
by their patrons.
OF course the Restaurant Francois
facilities take in a larger scope than
serving ordinary meals and light
lunches, and if one desires to do so
he can order as fancy mead or lunch
as he may care to pay for. The prin-
cipal thing that the management de-
sires that the public know at this time
is, that the popular priced lunches and
dinners will not be skimped as to
quality and will be cooked in such
way as to please, the most critical
| palate.
| Walla Wallans who have not yet
patroniZed the Restaurant Francois,
are cordially invited to do SO by
Messrs. Nogues & Boucharin.
