No storms, no excessive heat and no flies nor mosquitos. j One traveling man says there is j as much travel on this auto road as there is on the Columbia high- way. A Jew writer on the Oreeonian says the roads on the other side of ! o j.. ,1 iu:., ' the Sandy are in as good a condition as on this side. No one believes it as the travel is. on this side. Dr. Boyd and family, or rather the two younger children, were out last week. Henry Boyd, the oldest son, is a lieutenant in the army and late ly went "across" to the big scrap. He. with the 15,000 others, went on the Vaterland, the biggest transport afloat. Not a single transport under our flag has been lost. Edison has them rigged with sounding bells that will detect a submarine ten miles off. Poto G,o- UJ I.T.nilnv " bill ed a porcupine last week and gotjjj sixty quills in his mouth and jaws. It took three men to hold the dog j 4 and Dull these cmills out. A norcu- i d pine is a rare animal in this country. n. great many nne enernes went to waste here. There was a demand for them at the mills but it seems that no one had the time to pick them. Some small pear trees on Dr. Boyd's ranch are so loaded with the fruit that the limbs are lying flat on the ground. The railroad claim north of town held and improved by Charles L. Rughs and wife,, was drawn by a Chinese, native born. The Rughs were not on the land December first, 1913, and consequently had to go into the drawing and lost out. Too bad, as they had done considerable work there and there are 5 or 6 acres cleared on it. Leo Lehnfield and wife also lost their claim north of town. They were not there soon enough. How true it is that "Pride goeth before a fall." When Germany started the great world war it was going to run over France, conquer England, destroy Italy and Russia, and later the United States. The American Marines, whom the Germans call "devil dogs," started the Germans on their retreat towards the Fatherland at Catigny, where 1200 of them whipped and nearly an nihilated the Prussian Guards and a crack regiment of Bavarians These Marines haven't been trained 40 years but are the picked men of our country and are more than a match for anything Germany can show. James u. tiotkin and wile were out visiting with their people over Sunday. Mrs. Graham, of Mt. Tabor, with her two youngest children, is visit ing with her parents, Dr. and Mrs. Botkin, for a vacation. Mrs. Gra ham says her two sons, Haroald and Our Boys in France and Home Protection The men on the firing line represent the pick of our American youth. One in four of our boys at home was sick, rejected because ol physical deficiency. Many times the kidneys were to blame. If we wish to prevent old age coming on too soon, or if we want to increase our chances for a long life, Dr. Pierce of the Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N.Y., says that you should drink plenty of water daily between meals. Then pro cure at your nearest drug store, Anuria (double strength). This An-u-rio" drives the uric acid out and cures back ache and rheumatism. If we wish to keep our kidneys in the best condition a diet of milk and vege tables, with only little meat once a day, is the most suitable. Drink plenty of pure water, take Anurio three times a day for a month. Send Dr. Tierce ten cents for trial package. "Anuric" many times more potent than lithia, eliminates uric acid as hot water melts sugar. A short trial will convince you. Mr.Rkkck Jones says: "Just a few linos In regard to Dr. Pioree's Anuric Tablets which 1 toon lor kidney trouble. I am Rlad to rocom mend them to everybody. 1 know that they are good T ......
