LA dRANDE ON ROM
AUTO REtAYRACt
W. H. Kinston, Special Representa
tive of the Philadelphia press, was in
La Grande yesterday in the interests
of the trans-continental relay auto
mobile race to take place in Septem
ber. Mr. Kinston represents the press
in the race and It Is thought that
they will break a world's record for
long distances. The message to be
carried by the racerB is from the
mayor of Philadelphia to Governor
Hay of Washington. The messenger
will remain in the car night and day
and it Is expected that they will
reach Seattle after eight days from
Philadelphia, making the trip on an
average of 20 miles per hour.
The message will leave Philadel
phia September 10, and will probably
be in La Grande on the 16th or 17th.
The message will be brought from
Welser to Baker City in a Buick own
ed, by Mr. Lloyd and from Baker to
La Grande it will be brought by Mr.
Chandler in a White Steamer. When
it 'reaches La Grande It will be met
by nii automobile from Walla Walla,
where another car will pick it up and
take it on to the next relay. ;
. Mr. Kinston thinks that the time
is coming when there will be a trans
continental auto road and that Baker
City and La Grande will be on that
route. He says that Eastern Oregon
is worth going out of the way to see,
but fortunately it la right on the best
route from the east to the northern
Pacific coast.

known of the value of Doan'B Kidney
Pills for years and they have long
been a standard remedy in our house
hold. I used them for a weak and pain
ful back, accompanied by bearing
dwon pains through my hips. My kid
neys were much disordered and annoy
ed me both day and night. At times
my head ached bo severely that it
really felt as though It would split
and I was often so dizzy that I had to
take to my bed until the attack passed
away. I also suffered' from rheuma
tism and my ankles became badly
swollen. At last Doan's Kidney Pills
were brought to my attention and I
procured & supply. They helped me
from the first and by the time that I
had' taken the contents of three boxes
I was free from kidney trouble. There
has been no symptems of a return and
I consequently praise Doane's Kidney
Pills at everyopportunity."
