Hop Bitters, so freely advertised in all the papers, secular and religious, are having a large sale, and are supplanting all other medicines. There is no denying the virtues of the Hop plant, and the proprietors of these Bitters have shown great shrewdness and ability in compounding a Bitters whose virtues are so palpable to everyone's observation. - Examiner and Chronicle. Funny Sayings. The public is oft times led to read notices in the many newspapers of the marvelous cure some kind of patent medicine has effected, and some high-sounding name is attached to a testimonial as a further guarantee. But judging from the many testimonials from well known persons here in our State to the effect that the Oregon Kidney Tea has no superior for the cure of kidney and bladder diseases, we feel easy in recommending this valuable discovery to our readers who may be afflicted with any trouble in these organs. A short serial by Mrs. Burnett, author of "That Lass o' LOwrie's," etc. will begin in the February Scribner. Meanwhile Mrs. Burnett is writing what promises to be her longest novel of Scribner's Monthly. Mr. Cable's new serial, "Madame Delphine," will also begin in February, and run through three or four numbers. Mrs. Schayer's "Tiger Lily" will be concluded in the January number. Among the valuable improvements in mining machinery in the late Mechanics' fair of San Francisco was "Russell's Amalgametor," manufactured by E. F. Russell & Co. (Company), 261 First Street, for which they have received their silver medal awarded on first premium for best amalgametor. The public has long since awarded to Ayer's Hair Vigor the foremost place among reliable Hair Restoratives. It is effectual, agreeable and absolutely harmless. It makes the hair fresh and luxuriant and old age scarce and unfashionable. Reliable Testimony. Where testimonials give the residence of the parties it is an easy matter for any person to verify them. Thousands of people from all parts of the Pacific Coast can and have expressed the opinion that there is no other article in the world equal to Phosphate Soap for common toilet use. A great many people have tested this soap for skin diseases. Among others we give the following from parties who have thoroughly tested Phosphate Soap. Oakland, Cal. (California), April 5, 1880. Standard Soap Company - Gents: Some two or three months ago, I had a boy about two years old that had suffered for a year with a severe skin eruption on the head and face caused by teething. The child was in such misery that it would often be awakened out of sleep by the severe itching. He would then scratch his head and face until the blood ran from the scabs. We tried everything we could find, but nothing seemed to give any permanent relief until we tried Phosphate Soap. Before we had used one cake, the child's head and face were entirely healed, and there has been no appearance of the disease since. Michael Kane, No. (Number) 1068 Kirkham St. (Street). Fort Verde, Arizona, Dec. (December) 12, 1879. Standard Soap Company - Gents. Having received your box of Phosphate Soap, and having used only one cake of Soap out of three, I am happy to say that it has completely cured my sore eyelids which was caused by the alkali dust in Idaho Territory, in 1877, and have been sore ever since until I used Phosphate Soap. Corporal Dennis Burke, Twelfth Infantry. San Francisco, November 27, 1879. Standard Soap Company - Gents. After a number of trials of Soaps, I have learned that the Phosphate is certainly the very best for shaving. I thank you for its introduction. James P. Arthur.

I take great pleasure in making the following statement. I have been afflicted with a disease of the kidneys for the past two years, and have tried numerous remedies with only partial and temporary relief. Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure was recommended to me, and after taking it the pain and distress left me, and I am today feeling strong and well.

The publication of the third and last of the series will be completed before the close of the year 1881.

That it presents a larger amount of reading matter in one year than any other weekly published in the United States. 8.

That either of the three great stories to be published within the period between the dates December 1st, 1880 to November 30th, 1881, is worth the subscription price for one year. 10. That the Weekly Union has the largest circulation of any paper of its class published in the Pacific States. 11.
