Too Much. Soap Bad.
Many persons abuse soap by making
a-stiff, creamy lather in bathing,
under the belief tlint-llils is neccessnry
to dissolve dirt that fills the pores of
the skin. On tho contrary. Dr. Samuel
Dixon, health commissioner, of Penn
sylvania, enys very little soap is re
quired to break up dirt and pewiilt
wnter to remove, foreign substances
from tho pores so that glands may
perform their normal 'function. Ex
cessive uso of soap usually fills the
pores with fatty substances and re
sults iu imperfect action of tlio sweat

of disease, especially of a respiratory

By W. C. Cowgil!
While doing a little work In Marion
county a short time ago, Just the time
of apple season, early last fall, I had
occasion to make a trip over, in Polk
county, just across the lino, to aid In
making some apple contracts for the
new dehydrating plant at that time
just in the market for such contracts,
and returning by a somewhat differ
ent route we stopped our auto a few
minutes on tho brow of a high hill,
whore the view was one of particular
enchantment with the result that the
scene was forever engraved - on my
mind and afterwards it was published.
On my recent trip over in the Cove
country, a- similar ' contour of the
country I happened to be riding
through, so forcibly reminded me of
my previous, equally enjoyable outing,
will reproduce the story, with the idea,
that, by some chance, it ' may be a
pleasure to others to make this same
auto trip from La Grande; : .

Whonever you tire of things, as
sometimes you do, just come with me
for a two hours' motor spin over the
line in Polk county, our next of kin, and
if upon your return hojjie you don't tell
me that you have haaVthe ride "of your
life, I'll pay the bills. '
While in search, of something new
in tho way of urban-lite, the other
afternoon, I happened to run right into
it, pell-mell,' with a rush that almost
took my breath away, until my friend
suddenly stopped his car and asked if
I knew whore I was.;
Heart of the Orchards ;
Recovering my senses a little and
taking a few long, long breaths of de
liriously pure- and wood scented air:
it began to dawn upon me that wc
Were then in tho heart of tho prune
and apple orchards of Polk at onco
her pride nnd her profit.
I leurned at once why Mr. L. J.
Chapin wanted to show me something
new, whilo ho indulged in a bit-of
business on his own account. --.Ho had
previously shipped a good many car
loads of prunes .from this; same or
chard, and now ho wonted to inveigle
the owner of it out of about 1000
bushels of his best apples. : '
In the Gloaming
Returning to tho city in the gloam
ing; we took the Oak Grovo-Salem
hill route, almost all hill. r
A long spurt up, up to the summit,
and the car came to a sudden stop.
Spread before us like a hugo pan
orama, we could see the orchards and
fields wo had so recently passed; off
to the north Newborg und lntervcning-

. : All children hate castor oil, Grown

No child minds Stnnolnx -it is tasteless,

Stanolnz is not n cathartic, laden with

Stanolax is a lubricant. It softens tho

By this ftehtlo but ccrtnin method, nil

nuto-intoxication is prevented.- .
By tho use of Stanolux one prevents

Stanolax represents the new-day way

natural , way as opposed to violent

Druft-luden cathartics afford only tempo. 1

Stanolux, taken regularly, say a teaspoon v
