Editor Koseliurg News-Review: I wish to express my apprecla tlon of your article in last night's issue of the News on using home crown products. We have, in many cases, felt a grievance analiiHt our Rose- burg merchants for their ac- tions in advertising foreign pro- duets to tho neglect of the A. 1 ....... f .nnlUa thni t, a e producers are in pari to niuuie for not putting their product on the market In an orderly man- ner instead of spasmodically. Let us work together for the good of Douglas county. Both the taerchants and the consum- ers can lend valuable aid in fol- lowing the suggestions you have made in your article. The Douglas County Creamery has taken the lead, let others 4 step in line. Our slogan should bo HOME CROWN FIRST. Sin- cerely yours, KURD A. GOFF. LANDMARK OF MAINE COAST Mystery of the Old "Powder House" at Hallowell Never Yet Has Been Solved. Founded on the Immovable rocks Is that time-honored landmark, the old llullowvll powder house, overlooking the little city nestling beneath some of Maine's most beautiful hills. This old brick structure has Its eae mysterious door barred with Iron and carved with cabalistic signs that reg ister its visitors of over a century. No trace has ever been found of the erection of this little building, which has stood for two centuries as a silent sentinel over a peaceful and law-abiding community. It Is suld that when Peter Clark took his one rude cart, which he and bis futhur and brave wife had brought with them from their Massachusetts home in 1702, and turned It upside down on the banks of the river for their Brst shelter, with their one child. Uie powder house on Uie heights was standing there exactly as we see It now. It origin and architects ore un known and unaccounted for and a deep uiystory will always prevail around I its existence. It is a landmark annu ally visited by hundreds who have I heard of Its silent vigil on the rocky j heights ef Uie Kennebec valley. The name powder house was given to it because it has always been used j as a depository for the highly com bustible Ingredients of powder and ! dynamite snd from It has been given I the nsme of the reeky ledge, Powder House hill, adjoining It.

RIVER IS 2,000 MILES LONG Alexander the Great Bridged th Indua In India and Led His Army Into the Punjab. The Indus la one of the three great rivers of northern India. It baa Its source In the glaciers of the mountain region of the north, and after flowing across the hill country, inhabited by the funutlcal tribes, of which Kipling wrote. It comes out upon the plains of India, which It crosses, flowing to the southwest, and emptying Into the Arabian sea a little south of the fron tier of Baluchistan. The distance In a straight line from source to mouth is 1,500 miles, but If the curves of the river be taken Into account, the river has a length of 2.000 miles. The Indus enters the sea through several mouths, thereby forming a large delta, and on the extreme west ern end of this delta stands the port of Karachi, the capital of the Prov ince of Slnd and the gateway for the trade of the Punjab and a lurge part of central India. The city has a popula tion of about 125,000. It has a large eiport trade In wheat, oilseeds, cot ton, wool and hides. It contains ex tensive Iron works and other manu factories. Karachi Is 500 miles by sea from Bombay. It will be remembered that when Alexander the Great, Hie Macedonian conqueror. Invaded northern India, he came to the River Indus, bridged It, and crossing In the year S26 B. O., lod his army Into the Punjab. His Ticto rtous career continued for a time, but finally his troops refused to advance further, and Alexander was compelled to tum back. He died on the home ward march. LAST TO INVADE ENGLAND Writer Says John Paul Jones Was First and Only American to Forcibly Enter Britain. . A decidedly Interesting point Is raised by a well-known Chester gen tleman' who. In a letter, Bays of John Paul Jones: "He waa the first and the only American officer. In army or navy, to Invade Great Britain, and he was the last Invader of that country in the world. Jones carried the torch to England as a British general carried It to the White House at Washington a genera tion later. But do not airplanes count as ln- raders? Many German planes-hovered over England and hundreds were killed by bomba dropped from such air craft. Buy a piece of real estate and the title reaches up to the sky. I Imagine Englaud would assume that anybody who Invaded her air space was invau Ing England, which would take from our greatest naval hero the distinction of being the last Invader. Very likely it was meant that Jones was the last man-o'-warsman to reach England, and yet German submarine officers might dispute thaL 51rard In th Phlladplnhla Inn Hirer. INDIANS FORSAKE THE TEPEE Modern Bungalow Replacea Wigwam of Yore on Kiowa Reservation in Oklahoma. t The tepee, traditionally symbolic of Indian life. In fast disappearing. The Indian Is lenvlng the wigwam of his fathers In favor of the white man's house. The picture of the Indian brave, sitting stolidly In the entrance to his tent, must be discarded for the actuality. He Is now much more likely to be sitting on the porch of a cozy bungalow. So reports the Department of the In terior und gives as an example of the Indian's altered housing system the situation on the Kiowa reservation! near Anudurko, Okla. Here out ofj 1.1M0 Indian families, only 73 are still living in tepees. Tills "stride toward1 civilization," us It is characterized, Is a rapid one. Twenty years ago prac tically every one of these Indians was living In tepees and every one of the adults had been reared In a tepee. Now they are ensconced In homes ad vertised by real estate companies ss "modern In every respect.' Many of them, says the Department of the In terior, are better than those of their white neighbors. Christian Science Monitor. - Beck Didn't Like a Wig. James M. Peck, solicitor general of the United Status, Is pleased that he doesn't have to practice law In Eng land, where the wig and gown are es sential to a barrister's appearance be fore a high tribunal, says the Phila delphia Public Ledger. Mr. Bevk. who recently argued America's case before the privy council contesting the Canadian court's verdict in the Gen eral Motors' suit, is authority for the ststenient that he could not quite over come the feeling that he was address ing the court In his hat and overcoat a sensation which Interfered no little with his best fllfhts of oratory. The wlg-weailng custom In the courts of Great Britain Is not without Its virtues, according te Mr. Beck. In court, at least, he says, all men arc equal In a,iparsnce.

Drink Water If Back or Kidneys Hurt Begin Taking 8alts If You Fsel Backachy or Have Bladder Weakness Too much rich food forms acids which excite and overwork the kidneys in their efforts to filter it from the system. Hush the kidneys occasionally to re lieve them like you relieve the bowels, removing acids, waste and poison, else you may feel a dull misery in the kid ney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, the stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get irri tated, obliging one to get up two or three times during the night. To help neutralize these irritating acids and flush off the body's urinous waste, begin drinking water. Also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine and bladder disorders disappear. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes an.d lemon juice, com bined with liihh. and has been used for years to help clean ami stimulate sluggish kidnevs and stop bladder irri tation. Jad Salts is inexpensive and makes a delightful effervescent lithia water drink which millions of men and women take now and then to help pre vent serious kidney and bladder dis orders. By all means, drink lots of good water every day. Have your physician exam ine your kidneys at least twice a year. t LODGE DIRECTORY X Neighbors of Woodcraft, Lllao Circle No. 4S Meets on xsi an'i iuiiu Monday evenings.
