FACTS FROM THK tiOVERNOIl Covornor Wlthycombe baB the happy faculty of sizing up the situa tion and bitting the nail on the bead, when he comments on the sit uations of the day, be they political or otherwise. In an address at Sa lom last week at a rally of the .Ma rion county republicans, the governor frankly stated that: "The modorn slogan of the office holder who really fills his Job is 'the public be served,' In contradistlnc ton to that old time axiom, which was, I think, equally popular with the entrenched politicians as with dominating Interests, 'the public bo damned'," Party loyalty, the governor declar ed, is necessary It tho republicans aro to win this year. "We can win only by united effort," he said. "Party loyalty must be the very backbone of our campaign. Build ing up and maintaining the party as such 1b the only way to insure a republican victory this year, and In the years to come." Ho predicted a settlement of "family squabbles" In tho party and resultant victory at the polls. Tho governor severely criticised the democratic administration which lie Bald had been "powerful in prom Isos and puny In performance". "The cost of living has not been reduced," he said. "National ad ministrative extravnganco has been vnstly Increased Instead of lessened. Tho domorrfltlc tnrlff has accom plished nothing furthor than to do Vloto our Incomo.nnd Injure our Industries. The solemn Blngle term pledgo has beon lightly abandoned. The Philippines aro to be thrown ovor, despite tho president's former repudiation of Buch a policy." ItEWAItl) AT IjAST. Tho dlapatchos of today bring tho surprising iiowb that Tom Taggort has forcod the democratic party of Indiana To nominate him for tho vacancy In tho u. s. sonate. pie political situation In that slate must look rather serious for the adminis tration, that such extreme measures must bo resorted to . Hut Just think of It, Tom Tuggcrt, senator from the great state of lndlnla, what moro need bo said? According to tho Oregoninn to day, Medford Intends to present a candldalo for Joint representative for Jackson and Houglas counties In the legislature, In tho ponton of a resident from that city. Now with out Baying they have not a perfect Ylght to do this. II Is hardly playing fair to Douglas county, which has tmtered no cIuIiub at the past two elections, and now has nil openly an nounced candidate for the position this year. A rotation In this office is usually conceded, and In every sense of fairness, Douglas county is; entitled to the candidate this year, and especially so us no one camo forward from Jackson county until long after the Douglas candidate hao announced himself. Of course, th. field Is an open one, but It would Fteiu that a recognition of the ae-ov. faclB would only be fair play. The registralltin books are not 'lining as rapidly as they should when one remeinhera that the days of grace aro drawing closer. Inter est In election matters Is Indicative of the" progressive spirit of a com- munlty, and the people of liotiglas rounly should bear this In mind. Therefore, go and register at once.

For some women electric treatment is too ex pensive, and many have not the time to givo for trips and sittings at -the beauty parlors. The tweezers come to the rescue of all such, and after all, are not Bucbabad substitute. Of course, go and get the electric treats mcut if you can, but if you cannot, gel a blunt end tweezers at ohout twenty-five cents, and go for every offending hair, and remove it as fast as It comes above the surface of the ektn. Feel the ends of the tweezers when purchasing, as a sharp edge cuts the hair off outside of the skin, where the blunt edge will grasp it firmly. By deft handling, as shown In the illustration, the hair will be brought out with the root. This means eevernl things. It will bo much longer before you go after that hair again, and also, in time, the root gets weaker, and gives up the ghost of Its own accord. Make it a religion to take every hair out as soon as it shows on the surface. Durations and Answers Could wu Ml me hme 10 rnbiee the size of m Up; which " W. 'J'&TjS'ZlrTZ You can hoe,, lh.

Observer Health Talks BY WILLIAM BRADY, M.D. The Cold Moist Compress Oxe op the most effective remedies for croup 4s unfortunately unavail able in households where the eigh teenth century view of "catchins cold" prevails and catarrhal or "spasmodic" croup ia usually preva lent In these very households. A mother who imagines her child gets coup because he has had his feet wet, or because he went out without his coat or muffler on, will hardly ba willing to apply a cold dump cloth to the child's throat a3 a prophylactic or remedial measure. When the child retires with the symptoms of a "cold," and begins to cough In the night with that peculiar brassy, croupy cough, then is the time to apply tho cold moist com press. It will often prevent tho at tack, or even relieve the croup after it has developed. Here la the way to apply It: V.'iing out a small towel, a napkin or yerd square of cloth, in the coldest water you have at hand tap water is never too cold. Wring it thor oughly, so that it will not drip. Fold it quickly in a pad about the size of yot r hand, and apply it to the front of the throat from ear to ear. Cov er it with a piece of oiled silk or some waxed paper, and retain it in place by a few turns of bandage abo-t the neck. If relief is not Im mediate, apply a fresh "compres3 every five to ten minutes for half an hour or more. If relief follows the first application, as It usually does, leave tiie compress on for a few hours. The same measure Is useful in tho relief of acute sore throat, acute larynultls, and nnnoying cough due to irritation or tickling In the throat.
