Is A CLEVER GAME.

Neighboring Counties Visited By a
Pair of Swindlers.
A clever game is being worked in
~neighoring counties and the operators
have foand not a few victims. A
well-dressed man stops at a farmhouse
and declares that he has lost a valu-
able diamond pin in the roadway, and
all make a search. Nothing is found,
but before leaving the stranger says
he will return, and if the pin is found
will give a reward of $3.50 for it's re-
turn. A few DAYS later a tramp turns
mp with a pin, presumably a diamond,
which he says he found. The farmer
usually takes the bait, and gets the
pin for $50 or $25, expecting to get
$3.50 as his reward. After vainlv wait.
ing for the loser he learns from some
jeweler that the pin is worthless.

Miss MsNOna7d,

More than likely you speak the same
words yourself. and no doubt you feel
far from well. The cause may be easily
traced to some arrangement of the fe-
male organs which manifests itself in
depression of spirits, reluctance to go
anywhere or do anything. backache,
bearing-down pains, fiatulency, nerv-
BUSINESS, sleeplessness, or other fe-
male weakness.
These symptoms are but warnings
that there is danger ahead, and unless
needed life of suffering or serious
operation is the inevitable result.
The enever-failing remedy for all these
symptoms is Lydia 4. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound.
Miss Kate Mcdonald Of Woodbridge,
N. j., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"Restored health has meant 70 much 10 me
that cannot help from telling about it for
the sake OF other suffering women.

with female trouble and irregularities,
which made me physical wreck, and no one
thought would recover, but Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has entirely
cured me, and made me well and strcng, and

what o splendid medicine Il is.n

the practices Of numerous dealers who
sell goods on installments, and who
are not over particular in explaining
the conditions to their customers at
the time of making the sale. Natural
ly, it effects all dealers who sell goods
by this plan, and it is considered quite
burden by them, although it does
not interfere with their business, as
it does with that of the cut-throat"
concerns.
Under the new law no assignment
of future wages shall be valid for a
period exceeding two years from the
date thereof, nor unless made to Sc
cure debt actually contracted prior
10 or simultaneously with the execu-
tion Of said assignment. The law sur
rounds the assignment of wages with
numerous safeguards to protect the
working classes, who, more than 9th
ers, purchase goods on the installment
plan.

Madras Irrigation & Power company
a new Crook county project 10 cost
$1,000,0 600, were fled yesterday in the
state house at Salem. The canal will
iprigate more than 100000 acres in
Willow creek basin. and is expected to
increase Immensely the prosperity of
southern Crook county.
The company will take water from
the Descmtes river. At the point of
diversion will be built a dam 10 feet
high between the perpendicular walls
of the canyon through which the river
flows. The dam will be of concrete,
60 feet thick at the base, 80 feet thick
at the top and 40 feet long 1t win
be one of the greatest dams on the
coast. Power plants win be construct
ed at this dam and also at a point ON
the Crooked river, where the canal will
be carried across the Crooked river

and sSS feet above hhe waters Of the
stream. The project has been sur
