A unique advertising scheme along the line of roses has been originated by Miss Kate Bulck and presented to the Ladles' Commercial Club for their consideration. It consists of a string of dried rose petals, pressed Into the form of hardened beads. Miss Buick thinks It would be a good Idea to give these away with the butenier re to be distributed at the Portland Rose Festival. Comparatively few neonle would know what they are, and this mystery, coupled with the frangrance which adheres to tne pet als, rtesnlte the drying process, would assist a great deal in advertising the city in regard to Its rosea.

Marital Woes of Myrtle Creek Couple sclictluleu for Neconu Hearing in Circuit Court. Once more will Judge J. W. Ham ilton have to listen to the family trou bles of Nathan H.. and Mary E. Lamb, of Myrtle Creek, whose domestic In felicities have been brought to public notice several different times during the past few months. Mrs. Lamb, who successfully contested her hus band's suit for divorce at the Jan uary term of the circuit court, now comes forward w-tb a divorce suit of her own,, filed this morning through her attorneys Cardwell and WatBon, of this city, and C. I. Leavengood, of Myrtle Creek. The Lambs were mar ried In Roseburg on May 29, 1908 less than a year ago the bride being a widow from Kansas who corres ponded with Lamb during the pen dency of divorce proceedings from his first wife, to whom he was mar ried twice. In her complaint, Mrs. Lamb says her husband owns a large amount of real estate at Myrtle Creek and Is worth, besides, about $15,000 in money and collateral. She asks for one-third of the real estate, $160 Bult money and $40 per mouth temporary alimony. 'Cruel and inhuman treatment, hu miliation and InBult" are some of the words used by Mrs. Lamb In setting forth her grievances. Among other things, she recites the memorable fis tic altercation between herself and Lamb at Myrtle Creek last March, be fore Judge Hamilton decided to deny the husband's application for a di vorce. Mrs. Lamb neglects to men tion the multi-colored optic which her husband sustained In the battle, In the language of her attorneys, she does say: 'Defendant did then and there hold and pull plaintiff by the hair of her head for a period of one hour or more and until he had pulled from plaintiff's head a large wisp or hand ful of plaintiff's hair, and did then and there repeatedly knock plaintiff down by blows with his fists Inflicted on plaintiff a person to plainiin s great bodily and physical pain." Incidentally. Mrs. l.amD acids mat this animated scene was witnessed by a large number of neighbors. As a result of the fight. Lamb was Baled before the Justice of the Peace at Myrtle Creek, found guilty of assault and fined $50, together with costs. amounting to $40 more. From tnis decision and fine. Lamb has appealed to the circuit court .thus affording Judge Hamilton the pleasure of re viewing this case, as well as listening to a repetition of the narrative of grounds for a decree ot divorce. There will also come before Judge Hamilton the neMtlon of Lamb's at torney and real estate partner. B. J. Howland. to partition off Mrs. Lamb's interest in the real estate, acquired through her marriage. In denying a decree of divorce to the husband. Judge Hamilton docld ed that Lamb was equally to blame with his wife for their domestic un happlness. Whether he will hold sim ilar views after hearing the wife's al legation 1b a matter awaited with In terest. The only new feature added to the case Is the fist fight at Myrtle Creek, and if Judge Hamilton grants a divorce on account of this he will probably sustain the fine assessed against the husband. If he does not Issue a decree of separation he will likely cancel the fine. Biliousness and Constipation. For years I was troubled with bil iousness and constipation, which made life miserable for me. My ap petite tailed me. I lost my usual force and vitality.

Now York, April 24, 1909. To tho Editor: Sir: Tho Republican party prom- Ised to revise the tariff In the inter est of the 80,000,000 consumers of the country. Tho Payne Tariff bill, as passed by the House and amended by the Senate, provides no relief to the consumers of sugnr, who are com pelled by our tariff lawB to pay an an-, mini tribute on this necessary food product of more thnn $142,000,000. art of this amount goeB to the gov ernment, and a large part of it to the Sugar Trust and a relatively small lumber oSprotected sugar growers. Public sentiment is practically. unanimous in demnndlng a reduction lu the duties on both raw and refined sugar. No Member of Congress has attempted to justify the exorbitant tax, equivalent to 80 per ceni aa valorem, Imposed on this product. Yet nothing is done by our "tariff re vision" CoiiKroBS to reduce the bun- don of taxation which the excessive sugar duties levy on every family ill tho land. Thu newspapers ot the country have It In their power to bring the facts In regard to the sugar duties to the attention of Congress In such a manner as to compel that body to given consideration to the people's wishes. Will you not help us In this matter, bv ndvlslng your readers to write at onco to their Senators, urg ing them to use their Influ nee In fnvor of a material reduction in the duty on sugar. VoWRY.
