REWARD OFFERED GOSSIP MONGERS Chance For Some One to Try For a $500 Trophy Hung Up Today. PEOPLE ARE INDIGNANT False Reports Circulated In This City Regarding Red Cross .Workers Resented By the Tjocal ItuHiuess Men. Here's a chance for some wide awake fellow to make $500 right off the reel. The insinuations passed! from mouth to mouth in this city the pres ent week in reference tot he work accomplished by the Red Cross, where the money was going, how it is going to be used, and the rank falsehoods widely circulated that cer tain members thereof were receiving salaries of $100 peiynonth and other equally as debasing statements, has caused the people of Roseburg to take action against these gossip-mon gers and a standing reward of $500 is offered to anyone who can show that any person connected with the Red Cross work in this city, during the campaign now on, or previous to this week's drive, has ever received one cent in salary, or any compensa tion whatever in carrying on the work of this worthy organization. Of course, there is no true Ameri can citizen in our midst who would in any way question the ' patriotic spirit of the local Redl Cross workers, but there seems to be propaganda distributed about wild and un founded rumors that calls for some action to be taken. For this reason the following petition was circulated yesterday by John W. Parker, and in less than thirty minutes' time the names assigned thereto were secur ed: Roseburg, Ore., Dec. 19, 1917. The undersigned residents of Roseburg, Douglas County, Oregon, resenting the insinuations made against the American Redl Cross by those not in sympathy with America and its allies in the present war, hereby authorize the payment of a reward in the sum of F1VK HVNDRKD DOIXARS for proof that any officer of the local Red Cross, or any solicitor of funds or new members, has been paid a salary or wages, or that any mer chandise belonging .to the order has been sold and no fully accounted for.

DOWELLv An Inside Bath Makes You Look and Feel Fresh Eays a glass of hot water with phosphate before breakfast keeps Illness away. This excellent, common-sense health measure being adopted by millions. Physicians the world over recom mend the mslde bath, claiming this is of vastly more importance than out side cleanliness, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, causing Hi health, while the pores - in the ten yards of bowels do. Men and women are urged to drink each morning, before breakfast a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, as a harmless means of helping to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous day's indigestible material, poisons, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and puri fying the entire alimentary canal be fore putting more food into the Btora ach. Just as soap and hot water cleanse and freshen the skin, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the ellm lnativo organs. Those who wake np with bad breath, coated tongue, nasty taste or have a dull, aching head, sallow complexion, add stomach; others who are subject to bilious attacks or constipation, should obtain a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but Is suffi cient to demonstrate the value of in side bathing. Those who continue it each morning are assured of pro nounced results, both In regard to health ana appearance FOR SALE DR. SEELY TO ATTEND STATE BOARD MEETING Dr. A. C.

A FRIEND IN NEED A friend in need is a friend in deed, and how you can tell is to accommodate him in time of his need, and then a little later ask him for it back in return. And that is what I have done is to give credit to many a man and now I am going to ask them in return to come and pay their bills in full not later than December 25 this month, as that is the time that I need the "mon" to pay my honest bills, and all of my friends that will come to this call will be marked "true blue," and all that fail to answer this call will be classed as bums for their friendship is one-sided, and he is liable to take the bankrupt law that his wife may wear $1.75 stockings, and that is something rotten.
