The success of this great clearing
sale has been phenomenal, entirely
due to the extremely low prices made
on desirable goods. Another two
weeks of such rapid selling will prac-
tically clear this great store of all
winter goods, and enable the Peoples
Warehouse to display what will un-
questionably be the largest and most
magnificent assortment of new spring
merchandise ever shipped to the In
land Empire--an assortment of high
class merchandise that would do
credit to any metropolitan store of
the large cities of the Eastern States.
The Peoples Warehouses; system of
buying in Eastern markets and SELL
ing in large quantities enables it to
sell at absolutely the lowest prices,
and at the same time always display
the latest and newest fancies. stimuli

fit to Pendleton, but can be pointed

store worthy of Pendleton.
Remember this great clearing sale
continues two weeks more.

UNAPPREcIATED ELoQUENCE.-It is
we'll for a speaker to know how his
peroration is going to end when he
begins. I heard young lawyer make
his maiden speech. 1t was in defence
of a fellow who was half-witted, ar
rested on the charge Of stealing hog,
the young man having been ap-
pointed by the court.
His defense was that his client was
an idiot, and unable to distinguish be-
tween right and wrong. He closed a
fiowery speech with this peroration:
Gentlemen Of the jury, look at my
client. That low, receding forehead,
those lusterless eyes, portend that he
was deprived by nature of the power
to distinguish right from wrong. ig-
norant of the distinction which exists
between his property and that of 9TH
ers. To him, as to the 2-year-old
child, whatever he wants and can
reach belongs to him. He knows
neither why it does nor why it does
not. But, gentlemen of the jury. such
are the institutions of this our free
and glorious country, that my client,
idiot though he is, stands for trial to
day by a jury of his peers"
The culprit got the full penalty of
the law.-Exchange.

ALI, RIGHT AT LAsT-Before Pres

Michigan, had attained his present
high position, q young hopeful enter
ing college was recommended to his
consideration.
TRY the boy out. professor; criti-
else him and tell us both what you
think" the parents said.
To facilitate acquaintance the pro-
fessor took the boy for a walk. At
ter 10 minutes silence the youth ven
tured:
Fine day professor"
"Yes," with a far-away look.
Ten minutes more and the young
man squirming all the time, ventur-
ed:"This is a pleasant walk profess
sor."
"Yes."
For another ten minutes the ma
triculate boiled to his bones and then
blurted out that he thought they
might have rain.
"Yes," and this time the professor
went on: Young man, we have been
walking together for half an hour, and
you have said nothing which was not
commonplace and stupid"
True" answered the boy, his
wrath passing his modesty; land
you have endorsed every word
said"
They they laughingly shook hands,
and the word went home from the
professor that the boy was all right
and that they were great friends.-
