The Courier hH long beon urging proporty owners to build rentable houses, and we Bliall continue to urge it. We oan't expect people ot locate here when we oan't provide them with houses. The demand is here and supplying it is simply a business in vestment. If property owners will look at it this way our city will grow. If they wou't, it will stand still aud thus boom tne suburban property be tweeu here and Portland. Our oity has a good start for Hill, and we want to keep the gait. Here are some of the thiugs doing, and each mouth the Courier wants to priut a like record. any Hue n sidelines are nearing completion all along the O. W.

During that time, no telling how many gal lons of the various kinds of lini ments and oils I have used and with but little relief. Recently, I was confined to my bed help- and used it with such satisfactory results that I sent for two large bottles, and I have up to this time used about half a 50 cent bottle with splendid success." James Hyde, Bcebe, White County, Ark. Got Ease in Less Than Ten Minutes. Mr. James E. Alexander, of North Harpswell, Me., writes: " I am a horseshoer and subject to many strains in my back and hips which has brought on rheumatism in the sciatic nerve. I had it so bad one night when sitting in my chair, that I had to jump on my feet to get relief. I at once applied your MAM'S TrTirTTTnTT5 to the affected part and in less than ten minutes it was perfectly easy. I think it is the best of all Liniments." Sloan's Liniment does not need any rubbing. It's a powerful penetrant. Try it for Rheumatism, Sciatica, Sprains, Chest Pains, and Sore Throat. It gives almost instant relief.
