SENSIBLE HOBBY.
WeII-known People Devote Spare
Time to Upbuilding Health.

Physical culture is getting to be more
and mere of hobby with many people
who devote their spare time not only
to upbuilding their own physical
health, but in preaching doctrine of
good health to others.
There is no excuse today for any per-
son, unless tainted with an incurable
disease remaining sickly, with the
great advance in medical discoveries
and the growing POPULARITY of physical
culture.
IN the diseases of digestion and nu-
triton, for example, an acknowledged
specific treatment has been found in
Mi-o-na. 1t is relied upon as a GER
tainty in relieving the worst troubles
of digestion and assimilation, and
making a complete cure.
People suffering with headaches, pal
pitatiOn, sleeplessness, bad taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, distress after
eating, specks before the eyes, ner-
vousness and general debility, and
any other of the many distressing re-
suits of weakened stomach, should
profit by the discovery of Mi-o-na
stomach tablets.
Bowditch & Webster have seen so
many cures by Mi-o-na of stomach
and general run down state of health
that they are firm believers in the
power of this remedy to cure practi-
cally every case, and they show this
faith by giving a guarantee with
every 5O-cent box of Mi-o-na to refund
the money unless it does all that is
claimed for it. They take the whole
risk, and Mi-o-na will not cost you a
penny unless it cures.
Sold and guaranteed in Waterville
by Geo w. Dorr, and in Gardiner by
C. H. Beane.

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-10-30

New York, Oct. S0.-This state, al
ways the battlefield in politics, has
been worked up to an unprecedented
pitch of excitement by the heavy
campaigning of the two presidential
candidates during the last few days.
The result is as doubtful as before.
The small vote which the leaders
feared would result from apathy has
given way to an expectation of an un-
usually large showing at the polls.
Never in the history of politics in this
state have candidates been greeted
by such enthusiastic crowds.
Bryan is speeding westward today
and leaves behind an encouraged
group of politicians to complete the
final work. The leaders of the dem
ocratic party are delighted with the
results of meeting at Syracuse last
night where Bryan spoke four times.
Taft is also smiling today over his
reception at Syracuse, where he also
spoke to large crowds. His lieuten-
ANS declare the triumphal march
through the state assures victory.
Headquarters of both paties here
have increased confidence displayed
today.

OREGON
AND IDAHO SHEEP
BUREAU OF ANIMAL
INDUSTRY BEGINS WORK.
Arrangements Completed by DIR. S. W.
Mcclure and Work Will BE Started
Next Monday-Every Band in Two
States Will BE EXamined-E1ocks
Now Believed TO Be Free From
Disease, But Inspection VIII Make
Sure,

With the first of November the
bureau of animal industry will COM
mence the annual inspection of the
sheep of Oregon and Idaho, arrange
ments for which have just been COM
pleted by DR.. S. w. Mcclure, in
charge of the bureaus work in the
northwest.
During the coming two months
government inspectors will look over
every band of sheep in the two states,
inspecting carefully in a search for
scabies. Eleven men will be en-
ployed in the work in this state.
BY January l their task will be
practically completed November and
December are chosen for inspection
as during these months the sheep are
in their winter feed lots and several
bands can often be examined in the
course of a day.
There is practically no scab in
Oregon, according to the local Off
cials, unless a few isolated cases show
up down in the valley, but for the
most part the sheep are in very sat
isfactory condition. Also the Idaho
flocks are practically free from the
disease. but the inspection soon to be
undertaken will make matters doubI-
sure.
