Protest from Mayor Baker against the clos ing of the army quartermaster's depot In Portland. Or., failed today to move the war department to a change of policy. General Rogers said the Port land depot like the one at Los An geles, was established for war pur poses and now that the war is over it is no longer needed, it will continue however, until the supplies on hand are sold. Oregon's representation a.t Wash ington is investigating the report that the quartermaster depot here is to be moved to San Francisco and Portland will be notified immediately of any developments, according to word re ceived by the Portland chamber of commerce in a brief telegram from Senator Chamberlain yesterday. The matter is in the hands of the quartermaster general, Mr. Chamber lain's message stated, and develop ments would be watched and re norted to Portland. No additional word was received yesterday to indicate the transfer of the depot, and the deputy zone otllcer, Major Frank P. Tingley, stated that he had received no news regarding the matter and that the only inkling he had of a change was through the reports he had read in the daily pa pers. It is understood that the Los Angeles depot will be moved to San Francisco December 31, but there is no news of a change locally. An encouraging feature of the situ ation yesterday was the opinion of Major Tingley that a transfer of the depot would not necessarily mean the loss of the government store. By the time that the depot could be trans ferred, if such a move .were made, the surplus army goods assigned to Port land would have been sold and the store closed anyway. No matter what action is taken regarding the depot it is believed that the store here will remain open until the stock of goods is sold, and Portland people thus be given the benefit of a large quantity of Lncle Sam s goods.

Adam Bamer, a young man living near Curtis, was arrested this morning 'by the sheriff's deputies on a charge of forgery. It la claimed When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore, don't get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a. lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which removes the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 2t hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of water you can't drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts: take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morn ing for a few days and your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate clogged kidneys: also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer is a souree of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure; makes a delightful effervescent lilhia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep their kidneys clean and active. Try this, also keep up the water drinking, and no doubt you will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and hackach e. Adv. Bamer has secured money on a bogus check before, and that this second charge atrainst him will be pushed. . J "Merchandise of Merit Only" stake their reputation on the value in Smart Clothes Sixty-seven years ago Nathan Stein, a custom tailor of Geneva, N. Y., started the making of ready-to-wear garments for the convenience of his fellow townsmen. As a custom tailor, he had few equals certainly no superiors. And the same painstaking care that he put into his custom work was an outstanding feature of his ready- to-wear production. The reputation for quality soon spread beyond the limits of Nathan Stein's home town, and people in other towns and cities began to seek for clothes that bore his mark of quality. That was the beginning of STEIN-BLOCH supremacy. For sixty-seven years STEIN-BLOCH SMART CLOTHES have never varied from the one ideal of highest quality have set the standards of style, materials and tailoring and have never been surpassed. Three generations of the same families de scendants of tailors who first started with Nathan Stein may be found today in the Stein-Bloch shops; and every one of these workers with the shears or with the needle takes as much pride in producing the best clothes as you take in wearing them. The clothes we sell were tailored expressly for us by The Stein Bloch Co. They bear the Stein-Bloch Label and our label, which endorses theirs. Try the clothes on before our mirrors, and you will be as en thusiastic as we are about Stein-Bloch Smart Clothes. WAV KAifi In Prices $30 to $87.50
