EXPORTERS PAY TRUCKING
Oriental Lines Decline to Pay Re
bate on Cargo.
Exporters who have space engaged
on tha Oriental liner Surerlc, of the
Waterhouse aervlce. are doing their
own trucking on docks In delivering
cargo to ship's tackle. Hec.ently the
Trans-Pacific Freight Bureau Issued
an ultimatum setting forth that the
rebate of cents a ton. heretofore al
lowed when the steamship line handled
the trucking aa well as loading, would
cease to go forth after February 1. and
their responsibilities would extend only
to accepting cargo at the chutes and
loading It on the vessel.
Therefore, the exporters are paying
longshoremen for the dock work, and
prided grief lies In the fart that be
sides losing the rente, they are shoul
dering an extra expense of 11 centa a
ton. which the trucking charge aver
ages. It waa declared yesterday that
exporters would have to get together

ing for the tardy attorney today. The
action was taken after the various offi
cers of the court had waited about an
hour for the attorney's appearance and
had telephoned for him assiduously.
Just three months ago the same ar
gument was presented by the same
attorney. In behalf of the same alleged
offending restaurant, and the court
ruled against the contention, but Fouts
has raised the question again, and
after hearing the testimony last Mon
day, the court set arguments for yes

afternoon.

The defendant In the present case
Is J. IL KralL proprietor of the Pitts
burgh Grill at Sixth and Stark streets,
who. the police charge. Is running a
saloon under a restaurant license, by
selling liquor to men and women under
cover of a purported meal consisting
of a sandwich. Krall. who was arrested
twice In two days, testified that he had
followed the practice on advice of his
attorney.
The former decision of Judre Tax

was under different management as
the Bon Gusto restaurant. It Is com
monly known as Tlce's Grill, and It
has been denounced by the police as
a dive. Fouts then based his djf-nse
on the alleged fact that all frrllls In
the city were following the lime prac
tice, and on this contention, whllo find
ing the defendant guilty, the court re
fused to Impose a penalty, accepting
the lawyer's statement that othnrs
were doing the same thing.

former provision which explicitly set

Intended to abolish it, although th
present ordinance provides that liquor
can be sold only with meals such as
are ordinarily served In hotels and res
taurants, "It Is purely an effort to evads the
plain Intent of the law," said Deput
Clty Attorney 8ulllvan. "and enable
these places to run as restaurants and

THE passing of the Celestial year
4010 and tho advent of 1912 was
celebrated by Chung Chung, arch

For years Chung Chung's sandals

Chung Chung has removed his portly
form from the. path of progress.
Dressed in a sober suit of American
tailoring, with a sleek derby aloft and
his poll barbered smoothly where a
long and well-kept queue used to hang,
entered the police station and was
greeted with shouts and handshakings.
The convert took his reception smil

asked. "Does that go, too?"

RUSH TO COAST PREDICTED
Hood River Man Says Easterners
Are Preparing to Come West.
HOOD RIVER, Or., Feb. 20. (Spe
cial.) "Hundreds of colonists are
making preparations to leave Minne
sota and Wisconsin," says Frank A.
Massee, a Hood River orphardist, who
returned today from a visit of several
weeks with relatives In Madison, Wis.
"I found them selling their places
by the scores there," said Mr. Massee.
The past Winter, colder than it has
been In 40 years, was too much for
them and they are coming West. The
most f them with whom I talked are
coming to Oregron. There will be a
great Influx of colonists when the
cheap rates are in effect. Many rich
farmers will dispose of their interests
and come West during the Summer
morths."
Trying Times for
Women's Beauty
("Parlslenne" in Woman's Journal.)
"February and March are trying
months. Wind and weather play havoc
with complexions. The truest aid to
beauty these days Is made by dissolving
an original package of mayatone in
half a pint of witch hazel. Rub over
face, neck and arms in the morning,
and your skin will be smooth, soft and
satin-like all day. Use this regularly
and enlarged pores. stray hairs,
blotches and blemishes will be banished
never to return.
"Chaps, cold sores, pimples, eczema
and skin afflictions disappear if you
rub Mother's Salve Into affected sur
faces before retiring. It quickly heals
sores, cuts, burns, scalds, etc. It is
antiseptic as well as healing and les
sens danger of blood poisoning.
"Don'trIsk catching cold washing
your head. Anyhow, soap and water
dull and deaden hair. Use a dry sham
poo, made by mixing a cupful of corn
meal and an original package of therox.
Sift a teaspoonful over the head and
brush out thoroughly. This treatment
gives new life and makes the hair grow
long and abundant. Tour hair becomes
bright, wavy and beautifully lustrous."

Mrs. AW Kidman, of 403 E. Thomp

A friend told me to try your liniment
