REPORTS STILL COME IN 5 000 Workers Are Pleased by Re sults of Efforts That Show State Is Ready to Meet Any Call War May Make. Oregon wears a million-dollar smile. The state has hung $1,009,000 on the Red Cross. The Nation came to Oregon asking for $600,000 as this state'B fair pro portion of the J100, 000,000 Red Cross mercy fund. For every dollar asked Oregon, has given nearly $1.70. Of this amount $609,000 has come from the state outside Portland. The state at large was asked for only $400, 000, a sum that appears small compared with what Oregon has demonstrated as its unstinting liberality and capacity to give. Nor has the state yet finished giving. There' are still counties under their quotas and districts unreported. Some belated gifts have been hinted at. OresoD Makes Record. The returns reveal that Oregon has made & record in Red- Cross contribu tions among Western states and that few other states of the Union will equal proportionately what this state has done. ' There is also a record of service and co-operation which will be a criterion for future state campaigns. One hundred and fitty communities and 000 individuals have labored to gether in harmony. ' H. I Corbett, state chairman, and L. Q. Nichols, state campaign manager, have congratulated the committees who made it possible to organize the campaign in little more than a week. On the other hand com munity organizations have expressed their appreciation of the service they have received from the state committee and Mr. Nichols and Mr. Corbett and they have not forgotten Mrs. W. J. Maxwell, Mr. Nichols" assistant, whose efficient attention to multitudinous de tails kept the entire campaign moving smoothly. The record of the counties as tabu lated last night furnished a highly in teresting study. The fund for the state outside Portland jumped $181,464 Mon day and Tuesday. The receipts for Monday were $113,000 and for Tuesday $68,464. Part of the time the reports came so rapidly by wire and long-distance tele phone and that the services of the en tire state office staff were requird to receive and tabulate them. Nearly- All Exceed Quotas Nearly all the counties exceeded their apportionments. A small minority fell beneath what was expected of them, and late returns may put them on the other side of the ledger. The table indicates not only the amount apportioned and the amount given, but also the percentage by which each county exceeded or fell be low its quota: Pctg. , .

Lazy Bowels Respond Quickly to Paraffine Lubrication means increased action. This is a well-defined principle and has now been demonstrated in the case of inactive bowels. By a purely mechanical process it has been abundantly demonstrated thnt Ameroll. or pure paraffine oil, will lubricate the bowels, softening the con tents and causing an easy and natural movement. Ameroll Is being more and mora widly used for constipation and vaJ rlous other disorders of the Intestinal tract. It has been shown that Ameroll docs not in any way affect the digestive processes, that it does not absorb lntot the system and that it has healing properties very valuable where lrrita-. tion is present. Taken Inwardly, it simply passes through the bowels, oil ing the intestinal channels as it goea along and softening the hardenedl masses which have caused the consti pation. Ameroll Is colorless, tasteless anl odorless, most agreeable to take and causes no gripe nor pain. It is soli at 60 cents per pint bottle at all Owl Drug Stores. To Make Hair Wavy and Curly in One Night Someone has made the discovery that simply applying liquid sllmerine with s clean tooth brush will actually make straight hair beautifully curly over night: The liquid, which Is of course perfectly harmless, has the peculiar property of drying in pretty waves creases and ringlets. It also serves as a splendid dressing, keeping the hair delightfully soft and glossy. A few ounces of liquid sllmerine, ob tainable at any drug store, will keep the hair curly for weeks. It is neither sticky nor greasy, but quite pleasant to use. It produces a curllness which. Is the nearest thing to Nature ) own." Adv. i Cv '-v:JSjl mr y-
