ONE-CENT POSTAGE
SOON WILL COME
Postmaster General Albert S. Bur
leson, recently appointed by -President
Wilson to take charge of the
postal affairs of the United States, is
heartily in favor of ona cent letter
postage. He so announced himself
to a delegation representing' the Na
tional One-Cent Letter Postage asso
ciation, which waited on him in
Washington a few days ago.
The postmaster general told the ad
vocates of one-cent letter postage
that he had long believed that their
contention "was right. He stated,
however, that as head of the depart
ment it was his business to see that
sufficient revenue was raised to meet
all expenses, and while he admitted
that there was a big surplus received
from first-class mail each year, he
added that it would be necessary to
make such an adjustment of rates as
would put the department on a busi
ness basis.
Baldheaded Row
Early Piety Not Always the Cause of
Baldness
Inasmuch as it is an accepted fact
that baldness, falling hair and dand
ruff are caused by a germ, doesn't it
stands to reason that the only way to
prevent such calamities is to kill the
germs.
And doesn't it stand to reason that
the only way to kill these germs is
to use Parsian Sage,-which Huntley
Bros. Co. has so much faith in that
they guarantee it to cure dandruff,
falling hair and itching scalp in two
weeks, or money back?
Parisian Sage is a delightful hair
tonic pleasant to use. It is not
sticky or greasy, and contains only
those ingredients that will surely
benefit.
It is now sold by druggists all over
America, and by Huntley Bros. Co.
for 50 cents a large bottle. It is used
extensively by women who desire lux
uriant hair with a radiant luster. The
girl with the Auburn hair is on every
package.

HOW ONE
WOMAN WON
Rer Health and Strength Baci
Again by the Use of Cardui.
Tampa, Fla. In a letter from this
" city, Mrs. E. C. Corum writes: "I was
all weakened and worn out with wo
manly troubles. My husband brought
me some Cardui as a tonic, and, from
tie first day, it seemed to help.
I had almost lost my reason, but,
thanks to Cardui, I did not. Soon, I
felt and looked like a new woman. I
think the remedy is wonderful. I
recommend it to my friends, for I have
received great benefit from it."
Cardui acts specifically on the weak
ened womanly organs, strengthening
the muscles and nerves, and building
them up to health.
It helps to refresh the worn-out ner
vous system and relieves the effects of
overwork, both, mental and physical.
Fifty years' successful use fully
prove the merit of this purely vege
table, tonic remedy for women.
In every community, there live some
Who have been benefited by Cardui.
The beneficial effects of this time
tested woman's remedy, soon show
themselves in many different ways.

Postmaster General Burleson is
strongly in favor of putting the post
al department on an efficient basis.
He also favors, adequate compensa
tion for postal employees, and such a
readjustment of rates as will permit
the operation of the department in a
business-like manner.
Senator Theodore E. Burton from
Ohio, and Representative Charles L.
Bartlett, from Georgia, have ' re-introduced
one-cent letter postage bills in
the senate and house of representa
tivjes. These bills call for the in
auguration of one cent letter postage
by July l of this year.
A strong advocate for the lower
rate has appeared in the -person of
Hon. James J. Britt of Asheville, N.
C. Mr. Britt recently retired from
the position of third assistant post
master general. Upon being ' asked
for his opinion of one-cent letter post
age, he expressed it in no uncertain
tone:
"I am heartily in favor," declared
Mr. Britt, "of the immediate reduc
tion of letter postage from two cents
an ounce to one cent per ounce. It
will promote general intelligence, and
will improve the social relations of
tho people; and it will advance the
business interests of the country, by
lowering the cost of communication."
TACOMA IS PRAISED
BY REV. T. B.
Returning from a ten-days visit in
the Sound country, the Rev. T. B.
Ford, pastor of the Methodist church,
reached home Friday evening, and
reports a most interesting trip. Whila
away Dr. Ford spent most of his time
in Tacoma, though before coming
back to Oregon he visited frends in
Olympia. In Tacoma he preached a
number of times, and also delivered
an address at the University of Puget
Sound, the Methodist college in the
Northwest.
"Tacoma is going ahead," said Dr.
Ford, in speaking of his trip. "The
city seems to have found itself, and
is steadily building up. A great many
fine structures are in course of con
struction. The 18-story Realty build
ing is practically complete, and is a
superb office building. They are al
so building a fine hotel, and every
where one sees signs of prosperity
and progress. The University of
Puget Sound, one of the several edu
cational institutions there, has a
superb location, an excellent equip
ment, and a very superior class of
pupils. The residence portion of the
city has some of the finest lawns it
has been my pleasure to see, and ev
erywhere there are hard-surfaced
streets and concrete walks. While I
was there I was able to get some very
fine views of Mount Tacoma, the
greatest peak in the contiguous terri
tory of the United States, and the
mountain is certainly an inspiration
to the city that lies at its base.
"Olympia is also showing signs of
much activity, and while a quieter
ci;y than Tacoma, is a very pleasing
place to visit. I had a most . enjoy
able trip, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
But nevertheless I am glad . to get
back home. I will preach in my own
pulpit this Sunday.''

YOUTH'S HAND CAUGHT
IN SAW AT REDLAND
While working on a saw in the Kil
mer & Kinsel sawmill at Redland
Thursday afternoon, Clyde Warren,
17 years old, got his left hand iu
some manner entangled in the ma
chinery, and suffered the serious lac
eration of all the four fingers. Th3
lad's screams called mill hands to
his rescue, and he was hastily carried
to Redland, where an automobile was
procured, and the injured boy was
rushed to Oregon City, where he was
given surgical care by the Drs.
Mount.
After the hand was dressed the
young man returned to his home. The
surgeons hope to be able to save the
entire hand, though the member is
badly cut.

POPULAR WOMAN

Miss Francis Linn, of Salem, who
has a host of friends in Oregon City,
died at the home of her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. J. R. Linn, in the capitol
city, last Monday, a victim of tuber
culosis. Miss Linn was the eldest
daughter of her parents, and. was
warmly regarded by her Salem
friends. The funeral was held Wed

acting as pall bearers, and a number
of Oregon City friends attending.
Miss-Linn had been seriously ill
for the past year, and in an effort to
gain recovery of her health, traveled
with her parents to different resorts
in Arizona, California and Colorado,
spending most of the time in camp

month ago, Miss Linn began to show
signs of a more serious decline.

younger sister, Paula Linn, by her
grandmother, Mrs. A. Nelson, of Ore

EXAMINATION PAPERS
AFFORD WEIRD ANSWERS
County School Superintendent T. J.
Gary and his assistants are these
days working hard on the annual ex
amination papers from the various
schools. In a day or so they hope to
have all the papers marked, and will
then announce the results. In the
meantime life is one long grind,
broken only occasionally when some
paper is reached in which the pupil,
under the .strain of examination,
wrote down something that was not
exactly what he or she meant to say.
Some of these mishaps do much to
add relief to the tedious task of cor
recting papers.
Among the surprising statements
found in the answers are the follow
ing: "Arbitration has something to do
with trees."
"First aid in drowning is laying a
person flat with the head flatter."
"Subsoil is the dirt on top of the
earth. All the rest of the dirt is
earth."
"Four good crops for rotation of
crops are peas."
"Rotation of crops is to take some
thing out of the soil and put It
back.'1'

and pulled the covers off and spread
thenb over her and lay on the floor
from 11 A. Ml to 5 P. M., suffering in
tensely, when Mr. Wright came home
he immediately summoned Dr. Ded
man, who thought it unwise to set
the broken limb as it was so badly
swollen , that he could not determine
the extent of the injury, so the limb
was not set until Monday evening
and she was resting easy the last re
port, although her age is against her.
She is nearly 90 years old. Her many
friend hope for her recovery.
