ADRlFT WITH THE TIMES

Wy ance Union has college" yell.
It is not a good yell as yels go
and any freshman in the land could inn
prove on it if he tried. When the w. c.
7. U. convention met at Hartford, Conn,
Friday the delegates shouted white
ribboners! white ribboners hurrahr'
Womankind never did shine conspicuously
as 'rooters," but the w. c. T. U. really
needs some more effective way to ex-
press enthusiasm. With the greatest
humility we beg to offer one or two
suggestions. Here is something short,
forcible and to the point:
Whoopla whooplai
Cssss boom! ah!
W. c. T.. u.
Rahi rah! rah!!!
Here is a yell that is inelegant perhaps,
but fully expresses w. C. T. U. senti-
ments.
Rail rahl rah
Who are we?

Booze, twenty-threel
Again.
Down with whisky!

A WISH
I trust that ere it's time for me
To leave this vale of tears
And go above, my sole bequest
A legacy of years,
l may some day behold a dish
OF something good to eat,
No matter what it is, forsooth,
Just so It's good and sweet,
That simply mets right in my mouth
And won't keep me awake
At night or bring for aftermath
A fearful stomachache.
If a poet had turn for work he
wouldn't have such a hard time paying
his laundry bills.
LOOKING FORWARD.
Don't be sad, love,
Altho the day
Be cold and gray,
And all the world seem dark.
Remember love,
That six months hence
Springs recompense
Will flower in the park.
And then at night,
AS I declare
My sweet dispair
To you, inclined to scott
You'll slap your arms
And holly VOW
You don't know how
To keep mosquitoes off.

Some Of the most valuable ingredients
contained in DR.. Pieree's Favorite Pre-
scription for weak, nervous, over-worked,
urun-down," nervous and deb:litated
women, were employed, long years ago,
ing their squaws. In fact, one of the
most valuable medicinal plants entering
into the composition of DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription was known to the
Indians as vSquaw-Weed." Our knowl-
edge of the uses of not a few of our most
valuable native, medicinal plants was
gained from the Indians.
AS made up by improved and exact pro-
cesses, the aFavorite Prescription" Is q

It's an insult to your intelligence for a
dealer to endeavor to palm off upon you
some nostrum Of 1t7,lc1eoaU7o composition in
place of DR.. Pierce's world-famed medi-
cines which are OF KNOWN COMPOST

Pierce's medicines because they know
what they are made of and that the in
gradients employed are among the most
valuable that q medicine for like purposes
can be made of. The same is true of lead
ing physicians who do not hesitate to
recommend these medicines, since they
know exactly what they contain and that
their ingredients are the very best known
to medical science for the cure of the
several diseases for which they are rec
commended.

been given a cordial reception at the
open river meeting held at that place
on Wednesday evening, and had been
promised the hearty support Of resi-
dentG Of that section in securing the
appropriation for the contemplated
improvements on the Columbia.
Senator Stevenson and Representa-
tive Long of Pomeroy, both indorsed
the action of the meeting and pledged
their support to securing the appro-
priation. Garfield county has solidly
entered the fight, and has consented
to help in every WY possible. The
Pomeroy meeting voted to indorse the
action of the Walla Walla Commercial
club, and appointed a committee, OF
which Senator Stevenson was made
chairman, to draft resolutions.
