" .O, Regular Democratic Candidate for Coroner, Mr. Myers has recently purchased the undertaking business of Shank & Bissel and is in a position to hnndle the office of Coroner to the satis faction of the people of Clackamas County. He la the regular Democratic Candidate and Is receiving the hearty indorsement of his party with a most flattering backing from the Republicans who believe lu passing the office of Coroner around instead of permitting its continuance in the hands of one who has had control for some Blxtcen years; aud it is their expression that there is little consistency in keeping one mau in office a length of time covering about 1C years, and turn down others who may have been In some office not to exceed three. Mr. Myers Is a young and energetic man, is most capable and well Informed in his chosen profession, having spent some time at the business and recently put in about three years with J. p Finley & Son, undertakers and Enilmlmors, in Portland. Mr Myers is warming up to the political situation and Is making a most strenuous canvass which from present Indications points to his elec tion for Coroner. At the Oak. It requires a hardy man to smile calmly In the face of death. Under the stimulus of patriotic excitement, in the rush and strife of battle, men have noted for bravery. To cooly take ones life in hand and dash with it to the brink of the grave with a smile on the Hps and no tremor in the muscles is something which not everyone can do. Yet there is a man in Portland today, who has often done this thing, who. in fact, makes it a business to brave death. He has looked the black angel in the face so many times that the sensation has lost its awe for him. This man is Harry Breton, who, when the Oaks opens for the Summer sea son May 1G, will make his how to the people of Portland and vicinity in his daredovil automoble ride. Breton's ride is a sensation in itself and throughout the East has made him the center of many scones. He has an automobile made of steel through out and weighing something like 500 pounds. It is equipped with a 3V6 hore power engine. This machine Is driven down a steep incline constructed high In the air at a speed which after a swoop down a 45 per cent grade equals a mile a minute. At the foot of the In. dine Is a gap of 25 feet and across this the car is driven. After the gap Is jumped, the car is run out onto the roadway and brought to a standstill. The least swerving of the steering Hear would send tho driver to instant death. Tho slightest lack of calcula tion would end the ride with the fu neral of the driver. Many times lire- ton has had thrilling escapes but so fnr has escaped serious injury. He will bo the principal feature at the opening week of the Oaks begining May 10.

Saved From Being a Cripple For Life "Almost six or seven weeks ago 1 becamo paralyzed all Rt once with rheumatism," writes Mrs. Louis Sic Key, 913 Seventh Street, Oakland, Cal. "It struck me in the back and extended from the hip of my right leg down to my foot. The attack was so severe that I could not move, in bed and was afraid that I should be a cripple for life. "About twelve years ago I received a sample bottle -of your Liniment but never had occasion to use it, as I have always been well, but something told me that Sloan's Liniment would help me, so I tried it. After the second application I could get up out of bed, and In three days could walk, and now feel well and entirely free from pain. "My friends were very much sur prised at my rapid recovery and I was only too glad to tell them that Sloan's Liniment was the only medicine I used." ' Eczema Instantly Relieved.
