Honest Medicines Versus Fakes

President Taft's recent message
suggesting an amendment to the Pure
Food and Drugs law in its relation
to Prepared Medicines, does not refer
to such standard medicines as Foley's
Honey and Tar Compound and Foley
Kidney Pills. both Of which are true
medicines carefully compounded of
ingredients whose medicinal qualities
are recognized by the medical pro-
fession itself as the best known rem
edial agents for the diseases they are
intedded to counteract. For over three
decades Foley's Honey and Tar Com
pound has been a standard remedy for
coughs, colds and affections Of the
throat, chest and lungs for children
and for grown persons. and it retains
today its pre-emfnence above all other
preparations Of its kind. Foley Kidney
Pills are equally effective and meri-
torious. McGrath's Pharmacy.

CELEBRATED HIS RETURN
WITH HIS BRIDE

There was an all-around celebra-
tion in Salem's Chinatown yesterday
and last EVENING" day and night
of jubilancy, for G. E. Sun, son of
George Sun, is back from China-and
he brought back from the Orient a
Chinese bride.
George Sun is an educated China
man, and he has given his children
an education. Some time ago the son
went to the Orient ostensibly for a
visit, but in reality to find bride
for himself in the land of his father.
Yesterday morning both drove into
Chinatown in a taxi-cab, and they
were greeted with salute of fire
crackers. The day was of semi
holiday character, and last night the
Orientals in Chinatown sat down to
a banquet in honor of the newly
welded pair.

Lightning Kills Few

In 1906 lightning killed only 1863
people in this whole country. Ones
chances of death by lightning are
less than two in a million. The
chance of death from liver, kidney
or stomach trouble is vastly great
er, but not if Electric Bitters be
used. as Robert Madsen, of West
Burlington, Ia, proved. Four doc
tors gave him up after eight months
of suffering from virulent liver
trouble and yellow jaundice. He
was then completely cured by Elec-
trio Bitters. They're the best
stomach, liver, nerve and kidney
remedy and blood purifier on earth.

d. ALEXANDER
IN TOLLS AGAIN

(Klamath Chronicle, June 49,
According to the Doris Booster,
klamath Falls and Oregon has prob
ably seen the last Of Dave Alexan-
der. The Doris Booster says:
Dave Alexander who recently
made his escape from the Oregon
State Insane Asylum, was taken into
custody on Tuesday by Marshal
Burns. On Thursday he was taken
to Yreka by the marshal, and from
there he will probably be committed
to one of the state insane asylums. +"
For many years Dave Alexander
has been a familiar figure around
this city, and has made a great deal
of trouble for the local officers.
About two years ago he was arrested
here, adjudged insane and commit
ted to the asylum at Salem. A year
ago this spring he made his escape
from the asylum and returned to
this county, spending the summer on
the klamath Indian reservation. In
the fall he was taken back to the
asylum, but no sooner had the buds
began to come out and things begin
to get green this spring until a notice
was sent to County Clerk DeLap
stating that Alexander had again
made his getaway. 1t was expected
that he was headed toward this coun
ty, and that he would make himself
nuisance to the people in general
again, but he never got further than
the Butte valley this time until he
was nabbed for insanity, and it is
possible that the California officers
twill have to take care of him the
rest of his life. He is very old man,
and while probably not entirely out
of his head, he is vicious and gen.
eral nuisance wherever he happens
to be.

WILL GET A JOB
IN WASHINGTON

When Jack Hamlin today complet-
ed his sentence at the state peniten-
tiary and stepped out of the prison
door there was awaiting him in the
Office of superintendent James, E.
B. Carter, sheriff from Colfax, WASH
ington, to take him to that city, and
try him on the charge of pocket
picking, and, as the evidence is
strong against him, he will prob
ably be convicted and have to serve
a term in the Washington peniten-
tiary.
Hamlin was arrested in the city
during the last Cherry Fair for steal
ing purse from lady. The theft
was committed while some races
were being run on Commercial street
and Hamlin, taking advantage of the
crowd, snatched the purse. Walter
Johnson, marshal of the day, OBJ
served him and apprehended him.
When he was arraigned he made a
plea for clemency to Judge Burnett.
The judge sentenced him to one year
