There are no engineering difficulties of con struction to warrant delay in upeeedy completion, providing the financial re sources for building are made avail-; able. Prapased Roate Feasible. The late Edward H. Haniman studied every phase of the problem thoroughly and authorised construc tion of the alternative route, because it would be a line of easy gradients that meant more economical operation trains. Superficial reasons were al leged for the lapse In construction, but probably the underlying cause was thai the railroads came upon times durin which it was difficult to obtain th necessary capital for new construction. Mr. Harriman had reached the point his development programme where was vigorously pushing a programm for Oregon development. The Natron cutoff waa designed to make coastwise traffic an asset Instead of a liability. "Lndrr Irrigation development the Klamath country Is beginning to be come a heavy producer of grain an bay.

Railway Official Predicts Large In flux Travelers From East In Com In 3 Few Months. Not even in the palmy days of 1915, when San Francisco was the mecca of tourist travel, have the railroads ex perienced such, movement of passen ger traffic in spring season as at the present time. All trains westbound are as heavily laden as those going eastward, and at a period when it is usual for the heavy movement to be of tourists returning from Pacific coast resorts to the cities of the middle west and the Atlantic seaboard. This is the information imparted yesterday by M. Estabrook, manager of dining cars, hotels and restaurants of the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific railroads under the railroad adminis tration, who spent the day in Port- and. His department has close check on the travel conditions through its intimate relationship with those who journey across continent, and is ad vised of prospective as well as exist ing movement. Many Ton Hat a Expected. "It appears that the Pacific coast will experience the greatest tourist travel of its history this summer," said Mr. Estabrook. There is much in quiry concerning resort hotels and reservations already made denote that there has come a realization of the exceptional attractions of the moun tains, streams and forests of the west ern coast and of the matchless beaches that extend along the Pacific. "Dining car service on all of the lines west of Chicago has returned to the a la carte system. On the whole it seems to me the table d'hote service was good and its introduction a splen did thing. There was often heard the suggestion that it would be better and it gave excellent value to travelers, but it demonstrated that a majority of people prefer to select what they want , and did not relish the necessty of choosing between a limited variety of orders. It is still in effect on lones east of Chicago and those making transcontinental trips have the chance to try both kinds of service when they travel. Train Loaded to Capacity. "Our overland trains are loaded to capacity every day as they come from the east a condition that has never been had before at this season of the year. Winter tourists are returning homeward, but their places are being taken by new arrivals and, to judge by the number of passengers arriving every day it might be considered the beginning of the tourist season. And it appears to me it is the beginning of a summer season that bids fair to rival the winter travel. Thousands of peo ple are becoming acquainted with the Pacific coast states and a great many From the moment of birth and before Jintil the hour ot death, there is going on within the body a constant conflict, unseen and usually unfelt, be' tween forces that seek to de fend, and others that strive to destroy. Germs that enter from without are attacked and destroyed by the living guardians in the blood, the white blood cells or phagocytes. Poisons generated within seek entrance into the blood and are removed or de stroyed by the functions of the intestines, liver and kidneys. Food waste allowed to stagnate and remain in the intestines, uneVacuated, poisons the blood and destroys its power to de fend against outside ot inside enemies. Such self-poisoning causes over 90 of human illness. .n&im0lgj&. Constipation turns the tide of the invisible conflict against the body, in favor of the in vaders. Nor does the taking of castor oil, pills, salts, min eral waters, etc., to force the bowels 1 to move enable t! body to defend itself. Not only will the constipation grow worse with the continuance of such remedies but the dose mutt be constantly increased with an ever-weakening effect. On the other hand Nujol over comes constipation and brings about the habitof easy, thor ough bowel evacuation at rcg--ular intervals, because Nuiol is not a drug, does not act like any drug. Nujol brings about a return to Nature's methods by supplying necessary lubri cation of the bowel contents, by facilitating intestinal muscu lar action, by absorbing poison ous matter, and thus securing necessary cleansing of the in testinal canal and protection of the defensive properties of the blood itself.

"I have been trying for ten long years to find something that would overcome my troubles, but my efforts failed completely -until I got hold of Tanlac," said George M. Sealy, a well- known farmer who- lives on R. F. D. Xo. 2, Linnton, Oregon, while talking to a Tanlac representative in Portland the other day. "When I commenced taking Tanlac," continued Mr. Sealy, "I don't believe I could have lifted as much as five pounds if my life had depended upon it. My kidneys have given me a great deal of trouble for about ten yearj, but this condition has been very much worse for the last three or four years. I had such awful pains in my back at times that if I was sitting down I was scarce ly able to get up again, and was hardly able to turn over in Led. Sometimes these pains would get around to my sides and cause me all sorts of suffer ing. I was badly constipated all the time, too, and very often had raging headaches, jnd sometimes I would get so dizzy that I would actually fall if there was nothing handy for me to grab hold of. My stomach was also in bad condition and, while my appetite was very poor, what little I did eat would sour and cause gas to form and I would be perfectly miserable for hours afterwards. I was in this condi tion so long that it pulled me down to almost nothing, and I was so, weak and rim down that I was hardly able to do any work at all. "I had been reading about Tanlac, and had heard so many people talking about the good Tanlac had done them that I decided to give it a trial, al though, to tell the truth, I was about disgusted with medicine of any kind. I will frankly say, however, that Tan lac is the best medicine I ever got my hands on, and has done more for' me than all the rest of the medicines and treatments I have taken in ten years put together. And I will also state that it is the only medicine I ever saw that does lust what they say it will do. Why. I feel as well as I did whe'ri I was a young man in my 'teens,' and that is saying a good deal Tor a mar. sixty years old, but it Is a fact just the same. My kidneys seem to be rn per fect condition, ar.d I never have those terrible pains in my back, and sleep like a log over night. My stomach is in first-class condition, too, and. I eat just anything that is put before me at meal time, and I never have any bad after effects from it. I have gained ten pounds In weight, and am as well and hearty as I ever was in my life. Tanlac is a great medicine and I am gl;id of the opportunity to recommend it to others." Tanlac is sold In Portland by the Owl Drug Co. Adv. Your Hair Should Never Become Gray ! You Can Prevent It!
