reserve, averages higher individually
as instrumentalists and displays more
originality in entertaining than any
professional vaudeville aggregation
that has traveled on the vessel.
Pleasant weather added to the gaiety
of the voyage and seasickness was re
duced to a minimum. After some one
learned that,, the carpeted floor of the
saloon was no bar to dancing, it proved
a favorite rendezvous each evening.

Appraisers Kile Report and Map of
Proposed Assessment District for
' Improvement to Trontdale.
Hardsurfacing the Base Line road
from the city "limits. at Ninety-third
street to the Troutdale road, will cost
1123,561.77, according to the report of
the appraisers filed yesterday with
the County Commissioners and County
Clerk Coffey. A map of the proposed
assessment district, extending a half
mile on either side of the road, was
filed with the report. The length of
the proposed improvement is 100 feet
short of nine miles.
On the report of the assessments
the entire amount of the improvement
Is assessed against the property af
fected by the hardsurfacing. This,
however, will be divided, and ' each
property owner required to pay only
a half of the amount assessed. The
other half will be paid by the county.
But the law under which the hard-
surfacing is done provides, after the
remonstrance period, the county may
appropriate sufficient funds to meet
as much as 60 per cent of the cost of
the Improvement. This cannot be done
until after the assessment district has
been mapped and the assessments
made, and only when the Commission
ers shall determine that the improve
ment is a public necessity.
It is certain, however that the Com
missioners will meet their half of the
cost, inasmuch as tho money was pro
vided in the budget for that purpose
after a thorough investigation.
Appraisers for the Riverside and
Sandy roads have been appointed and
reports are expected from them at an
early date. Because there is no par
allel road to the north which may be
improved later it has been necessary
to assess all the property between
those roads and the river, which has
made the work exceedingly tedious.

It covered my hands. My hands looked

were only raw flesh. I was told it was
eczema. Tt itched and burned me so
that I could not sleep at night. I trfed
all sorts of eczema salves and one pre

gave me any relief until I tried Resinol
Soap and Resinol Ointment, and after
the first application my hands never
Itched or -burned again, and were well
In one week. I want every sufferer
from eczema to know that they can
