The Oldest Klickitat.
Jake Hunt. the oldest living Klickl
tat Indian known, lies at death's door
at his home adjoining this town east
of here. The old Indian is reputed to
be more than 100 years of age.
Years ago an Indian village stood
where the Hunt family now carries on
a general farming business. All that
Is left of the old settlement is a little
church, a totem pole and numerous
mounds where the Klickltats lie who

Yak" says that this was the Indians'
paradise before the advent of early
white settlers.
Jake Hunt is destined not to die a
poor Indian. His lands are as rich and
productive as any in the valley and
command a high price.- He is said to
have married seven times during his
song career, but there will be only a
~wdow and a few children to fall heir
to his valuable property.--Husum Cor

Grape-Nuts for nearly three years,"
says a correspondent, "and I am hap

the result of the experiment, for such
it has been.
"Seeing your advertisement in al
most all of the periodicals, for a long
time I looked upon it as a hoax. But
after years of suffering with gaseous
and bitter eructations from wy stom
ach, together with more or less loss
of appetite and flesh, I concluded to
try Grape-Nuts food for a little time
and note the result.
"I found it delicious, and It was not
long till I began to experience the
beneficial effects. My stomach re
sumed its normal state, the eructa
tions and bitterness ceased and I have
gained all my lost weight back.
"I am so 'well satisfied with the
result that so long as I may live and
retain my reason Grape-Nuts shall
constitute quite a portion of my daily
food."

OW THEY MARRY FOR MONEY
Different Prices Necessary to Get a
Husband Among Certain Classes
in New York.
New York.-There are 5,000 Jewish
marriage brokers in New York city
and most of them make a good living
in finding partners for the matri
monially-incined. The price is going
up all the while. The old scale no
longer attracts young Hebrews to
wedlock. One time $100 was consid
ered a good bonus for a girl to pay
for a husband; it has been going up
until it is $500.
Saloonkeeping ranks about the low
est of all on the broker's list, yet, only
a few days ago, a young man, two
years out of Russia. an assistant bar
eeper, refused even to look at a girl
with $1,000. He expected $3,000.
A medical school graduate will not
marry unless $3,000 goes with the
girl. An ordinary college graduate
now demands $2,000. A medical,
legal or dental beginner, with no prac
tice at all, insists upon $3,000 in the
marriage market, while one with an
established professional business ex
pects to receive anywhere from $6,000
to $25000 through the "schatchen."
t is a mistake to assume that only
the poor Hebrews arrange their mar
riages on a business basis. The cus
tom is general among all classes.
All Owned by the Red Men.
Muskogee, Okla.-The per capita
wealth of the Indi'an is approximate
ly $2,130. that for other Americans is
only a little more than $1,i00. The
lands owned by the Indians are rich
i oil, timber and other natural re
sources of all kinds. Some of the
best timber land in the United States
is owned by Indians.
The value of their agricultural
lands runs up in the millions. The
ranges which they possess support
about 500.000 sheep and cattle, owned
by lessees, bringing in a revenue of
more than $272.000 to :he various
tribes besides providing feed for more
than 1.500,000 head of horses, cattle,
heep and goats belonging to the In
dians themselves. Practically the only

URSE TELLS OF SKIN CURES
"I have seen the Cuticura Remedies v
sed with best results during the past
enty years. In my work as a nurse, 1
any skin disease cases came under
2y observation, and in every In
tance, I always recommended the
uticura Remedies as they always
ave entire satisfaction. One case in
articular was that of a lady friend
f mine who, when a child, was af

ace and hands entirely, breaking out
t intervals with severer torture. She

Cuticura Remedies which cured her.
have also seen them cure children
f ringworm. The children's faces
would be all circles and rings around
the cheeks, and the neck ,and after
treatment with the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment they were completely cured.
y husband had rheumatism on his
.rm and I used the Cuticura Oint
ment. It made his arm as limber and
nice, whereas it was quite stiff before
I began to apply the Ointment.
"Last May I had an ingrowing toe
nail which was very painful,. as the
side of the nail 'was edging right
down in the side of my toe. I cut
the nail out of the cavity it made, and
of course applied the Cuticura Oint
ment to the part affected. It soothed
t and in less than ten nights it was
all healed through constant use of the
Ointment. Ten days ago I had my
left hand and wrist burned with boil
ng lard, and Cuticura Ointment has
ompletely cured them. I have just
-ecommended the Cuticura Remedies
o another friend, and she is pleased
with the results and is recovering
nicely. I will gladly furnish the
