t there may be no
question about ob
taining the proper
article. But if they
do not wish to go
to the trouble of
getting a prescrip
tion for Nuxated
Iron then be sure
to look on the label
and see that the
words NUXATED
IRON are printed
thereon notNux
and Iron nor any
other form of Iron,
but Nuxated Iron.
' The remarkable
. -aitlta Tirnrluced bv
ington. D.C., says: " It
is without Hesitation
that I recommend
Nuxated Iron to per
sons who in the stress
of physical or mental
labors have permitted
the system to become
debilitated, the body
exhausted or the ner
ves run down. It has
restored my appetite
and my vitality. I feel
that I have dropped off
the burden of months
of toil in the few weeks
that I have been fol
lowing the very simple
directions for the use
of Nuxated Iron.
Nuxated Iron and it widespread sale (it be
ing estimated that over three million people
annually are to-day using it), has led to the
offering of numerous substitutes, and these
physicians say that health officials and doc
tors everywhere should caution the public
against accepting substitutes in medicines
and they especially warn against accepting
substitutes for Nuxated Iron, which, instead
of being organic iron may be nothing more
than a metallic iron compound which may
in some cases produce more harm than good.
The widespread publication of the above in
Sormation, has been suggested by Dr. Tsmes
rancis Sullivan, formerly physician of Belle
vue Hospital (Outdoor Dept.), New York,
.and the Westchester County Hospital! Dr.
Ferdinand King, New York Physician and
Medical Author and others, so that the pub.
lie may be informed on this subject and
protected from the use of metallic iron un
der the delusion that It Is Nuxated Iron
or at least something as good as Nuxated
''it' is surprising how many people suffer
from iron deficiency and do not know it II
you are not strong or well, you owe it toi
yourself to make the following test: See
low long you can work or how far you cars
walk without becoming tired. Next take
two five-grain tablets of Nuxated Iron three
times per day after meals for two weeks.
Then test your strength and see bow much
you have gained.

LOGAN
Winter is coming on by degrees.
Some prophets that think they are in
on nature's secrets, are foretelling a
hard winter. Maybe because they
think it time for a change,
Harding Grange held its annual
election on December 7th, and is sup
plied with a live set of officers and
good resolutions for the coming year.
The Grange has a fine property and
if the people will wake up arid give
it proper support much can be done
for the benefit of the community.
Following are the officers elected:
Master, L. Kohl; overseer, A. F. Slop
er; lecturer, Gladys Sloper; secretary
Irene Kirchem; treasurer, 0. D. Rob
bins; steward, F. F. Wilson; A. S,,
Guy Brown; L. A. S., Frieda Kir
chem; J. K., W. H. Brown; C, June
Kirchem; P., S. I. Wilson; F., Mrs.
Belle Funk.
The dnly recent cases of influenza
are in the family of R. M. Tracy, and
are light attacks of the disease.
Fred Minder writes to his. folks
from Siberia, that he is busy and all
right.
Carl Kirchem is in France, a mem
ber of the signal service.
Floyd Kirchem is a fireman for
Uncle Sam on a boat that will take a
load of flour to some allied country.
Wm. McCubbin has gone through
the campaigns in France and, we pre
sume, safely, or we should have
heard otherwise.
Samuel E. Gerber has been promot
ed twice, and we believe remained on
this side
We have not heard whether George
Tracy went across before the close
of the war or not, but presume he
did.
Th
homas Eaden reports that his son,
Ed, is in the hospital at Camp Lewis.
First he was down with pneumonia,
and then the influenza caught him,
and altogether it was about as bad
as going into the trenches.
J. C. Young took a back spin down
the Baker's bridge hill with' a truck
load of milk, but fortunately the load
remained right side up.
The-voters of road district No. 12
voted a 10-mill tax to. be applied in
extending the pavement eastward to
ward Bakers bridge. The voters
seem to have formed the good habit
of voting for road improvement.
To Guard Against Influenza
Don't let the "dread influenza get
you. If you have even the slightest
cough or cold, better begin using Fol
ey's Honey and Tar at once. Henry
Willis, Sandy Point, Texas, is one of
many thousands who consider this
remedy "just fine." He says: "I suf
fered severely with a bad cough;
after using four or five dollars'
worth of different medicines decided
to try Foley's Honey and Tar. One
bottle gave relief. Best medicine I
ever used." Contains no opiates.

Snow is on the mountains!
A light blanket of snow fell here
Sunday night but is nearly all , gone
now.
The "Flu" has broken out here in
the Murray and Freil families. Rob
ert Murray, who had. been working at
Vancouver, returned home with the
"Flue" and it extended through the
family and is now in the Freu fam
ily, but so far, under the care of Dr.
Williams, of Sandy, they are doing
well, and with care will soon be all
right again.
School has been discontinued again
on account of the influenza and it' is
not known how soon it will be re
opened, as the epidemic is likely to
spread to other families.
Of all the ridiculous assertions
ever made, Pat McArthur's, M. C.:
from Portland about getting Post
Master General Burleson's scalp, is
the limit. Pat has about as much
chance of making his talk good as
the kaiser has. It is quite the fash'
ion to kick the post master. If some
poor imbecile who gets a letter once a
month, imagines he ought to get one
oftener and forthwith sets up a
howl. Mistakes are bound to occur
in any office. For instance, the office
here gets mail that ought to go to
points across the river, 'and hardly a
week passes but what mail comes
here that ought to go to Salem be
cause the "a" sometimes looks like
"o" and is sent by thu postoffice at
Porland to Salmon, although that
office has' been discontinued for
standpatters gere going to get Sec
retary of War Baker and Secretary
of the Navy, Daniels, both of whom
have' astonished the. world through
their efliciency, but they are still on
the job, and so will P. M, General
Burleson, in spite of the ridiculous
talk of Pat McArthur, of Portland.
The French marshals of France-un
der Napoleon, referred to lastf week
were Massena, Lannes, Murat, Duroc
and Ney, and not as printed, and,
great military men as they were,
they are out-classed by Foch, Jotfre,
and Petain.
The Colliers says the president
made a great political blunder in his
appeal to the people on October 26th
to send back to Washington Dem
cratic members in both houses. It
proved to be disastrous because it
gave the opposition a chance to start
an uproar that swept the rabble off
their 1 feet by arousing their preju
dices, although Taft, McKinley and J
Ben Harrison, all republicans, had all
done the same thing. It was, how
ever, not' as had a mistake as the
one Hughes made in his campaign
by invading California and utterly
ignoring Hiram Johnson, the repub
lican candidate for U. S. senator,
who carried his state by 100,000 votes
and Hughes lost" by 12000, and lost
the presidency with it. The republi
cans made the boast they would car
ry the democratic states of New
York, New Jersey and Indiana by the
liberal use of money, and they did,
but Hughes upset their hopes by his
bad break in California.
The Literary Digest has an article
on disastrous emotionalism and
shows that often giving away to ex-;
cessive emotions generally unbalanc
es the mind. . The ' writer has never
known a person who had poor control
over, his feelings but what lost his
mind.
Attorney Joseph, of Portland, has
offered to give his road from the toll
gate up to Government camp, left to
him by Wemme as a part of the
great Liberty highway to extend

By presidential proclamation issu
ed November 27 a parcel, of 46,062
acres of the Deschutes National for
est, lying some 150 miles south of
The Dalles, is eliminated from the
reserve and 'will hereafter be avail
able for agricultural pursuits, i..-'.
The main area affected comprises a
tract about seven miles square situat
ed near the present southwestern
corner of the forest. , This tract is
practically a solid body of privately
owned land having become alienated
as the result of consolidation of for
est lands through the means of land
exchange between the government
and certain private land owners.
Of all the lands included nearly 90
percent of the total area is private
ly owned, only about 4600 acres of
government lands being affected..
These areas released trom tne .Na
tional forest have been found to have
little real value for national forest
purposes. However, it is believed
that they are adapted to agriculture
and farming. The Dalles Chronicle.

The result of the pre-organization

necessity for some form of state
wide association.
It is expected that the convention
