Storm lira ltd by Couple.
All preparations had been made for
the wedding for 4:30 o'clock Thanks
giving afternoon. Miss Higgins and
Mr. Miller had been unable to com
municate with their relatives and
friends In Portland to cause a cancel
lation of the wedding arrangements
duo to the fact that the wires were
down and that there were no train
connections with Hood River.
"We cannot disappoint our friends,"
cautioned Miss Higgins Thanksgiving
morning, when the snow had piled
four feet deep In the valley. "Let's
walk to Hood River and catch a
train to Portland."
Bride-Elect Take Tropirua.
From the family chest the silk wed
ding gown of her grandmother, Mrs.
George W. Allen, and the bridal veil
of her mother, Mrs. George F. Hig
gins of Boston, were taken by Miss
Higgins. These were wrapped care
fully and placed on a sled, and the
young couple, accompanied by Lester
Miller, a brother of the groom-to-be,
set out from therr homes at 8
o'clock Thanksgiving morning.
The first few miles of the hike
were made on the crust of the enow,
but the last end of the Journey found
the snow very soft and at times the
hikers sank down waist deep. Mr.
Miller and his brother helped the
brave girl along and they arrived in
Hood River at 4:30 o'clock, Just when
the wedding party was assembling in
Portland.
Wedding: Party Holda Vlll.
Although tired from her Journey,
Miss Higgins did not give up. She
telegraphed her aunt, Mary H. Alien,
who had arranged the wedding, and
asked that the ceremony be postponed
until 10:30 P. M, so that they might
reach Portland.
The trio then crossed the Columbia
river from Hood River to White Sal
mon, where they caught a North Bank
train. This train was late. The wed
ding guests were waiting when 10
o'clock came. They moved up the
marriage hour until 1 A. M. and wait
ed. The couple arrived in Portland
at 12:30 A. M., Friday, but concluded
that the wedding had been postponed.
They went to a hotel for the night.
Meanwhile, Miss Allen and the1
guests assembled searched the city
hotels by telephone for the young
people, but could not locate them.
The disappointed guests remained at
the evangelistic institute until 2:30
A. M. and then went home.
Cupid Finally Triumph,.
Friday night they again assembled
and this time Miss Higgins and Mr.
.Miller were on hand. Rev. Mr. Van
Nuys performed the ceremony in the
presence of 100 persons. Miss Flor
ence Craven, a Reed college girl, and
Miss Florence Frailer were brides
maids, and Miss Mary H. Allen was
the maid of honor. R. Whitney Hig
gins, a brother, gave the bride awaj
and Lester Miller acted as best man
for his brother. Miss Catherine Tay
lor was flower girl.
In order that the hardships that
were experienced by the young couple
In finally reaching the marriage al

male quartet sang an improvised song
as the wedding party entered for the
ceremony.

Shippers Finish Evidence In Long
and Short Hani Hearing.
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Nov. 2.
Utah shippers today completed the
presentation of evidence in opposi
tion to the application of the trans
continental railroads for relief from
the long-and-short-haul clause of the
transportation act at a hearing held
in the federal building here before
Examiner Disque, attorney examiner

mission. The Utah witnesses declared that
to permit the railroads to charge a
lower freight rate for commodities
moving from the east to the Pac'flc
coast than in same commodities mov
ing to Salt Lake from the same
points of origin would be to limit
the distributing area reached by Salt
Lake and Ogden Jobbers by from 60,

ciated I'ress.) Privy Councillor Duis
berg, speaking today before repre
sentatives of the German chemical

half Its former peace-time production,
and that exportations had, been se
riously hampered by tariffs designed

countries.

these lots were sold within the first
48 hours after they had been offered
for sale."

Why Cant You, Too, Be
Well and Strong?
FEW of us realize- how precious good health is
until we begin to los it To be well is to
enjoy life and make good times for those around us.
To be constantly ailing is to miss life's pleasures
and to look with envy upon our robust friends
and neighbors?
Are you one of the unfortunates?
Is your health slowly slipping away? It's time,
then, you looked to your kidneys !
Much sickness of today is traceable to kidney
weakness. Its increase is alarming. That's be
cause it's usually unseen or neglected.
But it's easy to tell if your kidneys are weak.
You may have only backache ; a lameness, stiffness,
or sharp stabbing pains ; dizzy spells, headaches, or
annoying bladder irregularities.
If you have these symptoms, suspect your kid
neys! Remember that delay may result in serious
kidney sickness.
But why dwell on the dark picture?
Rather think of the brighter side!
To remedy such a weakness is to add years to
your life and to regain the health and strength that
enable you to enter life's daily battle with joy and
enthusiasm.
If you've reason to suspect your kidneys, read
the stories of these Portland people. They tell how
they have won back good health through Doan's
Kidney Pills, the world's best-recommended
kidney remedy. Doan's have helped thousands.
They should help you. Ask VouT neighbor!
"Use Doan's" Say These Portland Folks
N. YOUNGER, Motorman, 1546 E. 9th St
says: "My kidneys were weak while I was
running a locomotive. The jarring and jolting
of the engine caused my tack to ache and pain
so I could hardly straighten up. The action of
my kidneys 'became irregular and annoyed me
a lot. I read of Doair8 Kidney Pills and used
them as directed. They soon rid me of the
aches and pains. If I have any signs of rny
kidneys being out of order now I depend upon
Doan's Kidney Pills for relief. -I know they
will do the work." !
gas
MRS. S. MUELLER, 57 E. 78th St. North,
says: "I gladly indorse Doan's Kidney Pills
as a remedy of merit. They are an old
remedy in my home. I have used Doan's
for attacks of kidney complaint and dull
nagging backaches which made me miser
able. My kidneys would not act right,
either. Doan's Kidney Pills have never
failed to relieve these ailments and strength
en my back and kidneys. I gladly recom
mend Doan's to anyone in need of a kidney
remedy."

Deposits
Then, and Now
WITH the passing of every milestone in its
steady, consistent progress, Ladd & Tilton
Bank, now in its sixty-third year, has enjoyed a phe
nomenal increase in deposits.
On December 31, 1859, the year of its establishment,
this bank's total deposits were $49,891.62, as compared to
total deposits on November 22, 1921, of $21,160,250.70.
That this remarkable growth is the result of public confidence,
inspired by trustworthiness and a sincere desire to serve, is
undoubted. On strength of character Ladd & Tilton Bank
was founded and has attained its present elevation, for
character, a vital element in any business deserving of suc
cess, is the first principle of banking the keystone of its
entire structure. Incidentally it might be stated that Ladd
& Tilton Bank, throughout its long period of existence, has
stood alone, its steady and substantial growth not the result
of consolidation with other financial institutions.
Strongly entrenched as it is to-day with the vast experience
gained through more than three score years of successful
banking, Ladd & Tilton Bank will continue to progress as it
has in the past, efficiently serving its patrons in every
department of banking.,
