With a Defective Tooth You
Will Be Robbed of Pleasure
Because it is sure to ache, and you can't have
pleasure and toothache, at the same time.
Before taking your Summer outing, let me
examine your teeth. A very little work may
save you a great deal of pain.
Perhaps a filling is necessary or some useless
teeth removed and a bridge inserted that -will
perform all of the work of natural teeth with
perfect satisfaction to you.
Our plates fit perfectly and won't fall out
when you are tossed about by the breakers.
Our offices are roomy and cool.

LOVE OF CUE GAME
THEIR DOWNFALL
Two Young Men Lose Posi
tions Because of Devotion
to Billiards.
BOTH CLAIM CHAMPIONSHIP
.Neither Will Yield, and They Con
tinue to Play Until Ragged and
Unkempt They Are Arrested as
Vagrants Will Leave Town.
A dispute six weeks ago between
two friends as to which was the bet
ter player of billiards has Just resulted
in the downfall of both. So interested
did the pair become In playing: a series
of games that they forfeited their po
sitions in a local wholesale house in
order to continue the contest uninter
rupted. Eventually they got to pawn
ins their effects and living about at
free lunch counters that they might
gro on indulging; their enthusiasm for
the competition. And yesterday, pale,
haggard and unkempt through continued
attention to the game, they decided to
leave the city when Judge Cameron ad
vised them that they must do some
thing more useful than play billiards
if they desired to remain here un
moleeted by the law.
Arthur Eide and Leo V. Strain are
the competitors. Friends of the two
men say that neither of them can play
billiards from the standpoint of an
expert. They were working in a Front
street wholesale house in menial ca
pacities when the initial game was
played. It is not learned which of
them won, but both claimed supremacy
in handling the cue. They got to play
ing evenings to begin with. Evenings
proving all too short they added noon
hour to the schedule. One afternoon
they forgot to show up for work until
after 3 o'clock. When they reported
at that hour it was to find their Jobs
had been filled by other workmen, so
they went back to the billiard table.
From a purely porting standpoint
Eide and Strain thereafter proved
themselves thoroughbreds of the first
water. Day and
night they kept at
it, now one gaining
the advantage, then
the other. Like
children pursuing
the evanescent
I rainbow, each kept
I after victory which
seemed near at
I hand. They were so
evenly matched
that an accident
would have turned
the tide of victory.
but " this accident
failed to occur and
the game went on.
It was only a
short time until
their meager store
of money was con
sumed by bllllard
r.oom dues. It costs
money to play bil
liards In a public
place at 40 cents an
hour. But financial
embarassment was
nothing as compared with their ardor In
the contest and. they parted with most
everything but their clothing among the
pawnshops of Third street.
The scores in none of their games
are available, but it is said the figures
are nothing out of the ordinary, ex
cept for being very close, and not of
sufficient difference to satisfy either
man of the other's supremacy. The
last game they played continued until
1:30 o'clock Friday morning. They
did not quit until the proprietor of
the place ran them out in order to
close up his place. When they
started for their modest lodgings in
the Eastern lodging house it never
occurred to them of the danger of the
hour. An ambitious policeman caught
eight of them, observed that they were
unshaved and unkept and insisted on
an Interview.
There is a law- that provides no per
son can be out after midnight except
on lawful business. And the law falls
to recognize billiards as lawful busi
ness. Of course, persons vita more
, nt I
than 50 cents in silver and new clothes,
are never molested. But let any per
son who is shabby try to circulate in
the quiet hours before dawn and the
chances are 10 to 1 that eome police
man who wants to be a sergeant will
take him in. So it was that Strain
and Eide were taken in.
"You men have got to go to work
or else leave town," said Judge Cam
eron when the case was brought be
fore him.
The two players whispered together
briefly. Their words could not be
heard, but their manner Indicated
each was demanding of the other that
he admit his Inferiority at billiards.
Doubtless neither would give In and
Eide presently turned to the court.
"We will leave the city, your honor,"
he said.
Isaach Gruble, would-be founder of
a new school of philosophy, was in
court yesterday forenoon. Gruble's
system of life is a sort of antithesis
to the code of the Stoics. He believes
not only in giving
play to his feelings,
but in stimulating
them. He is a mix
ture of anarchist,
Socialist, Satyr,
roue and vagabond.
Gruble was try
ing to convert a
group of men to his
view of life when
the police picked
him up; for while
this la a country of
free thought, in
dividual habits of
mind must not
openly stray be
yond certain pre
scribed limits. Ant
Gruble was en
deavoring to im
press upon his
auditors that life
is a transitory ex
istence beset with
miseries such as
should be dispelled
by any means
whatsoever. Including morphine, opium,
liquor and any other agencies of artificial
pleasure which might suggest themselves.
Just to impress upon his hearers the
logic of what he was saying, Gruble
went into his ragged clothes for a
hypodermic needle, plunged it into his
bared wrist, and in an instant his rabid
mood passed away and he stood beam
ing and genial. At which moment a
plain-clothes officer who had been lis
tening to the pernicious lecture stepped
forwards and arrested the fellow.
"That a man should use morphine
and liquor is a sad misfortune which

Grape-Nuts
FOOD
"1 want to tell you about Grape-Nuts
food, and my experience with It.
"I had for a year or two, felt a gen
eral debility creeping on me, and also suf
fered from flatulency, piles, etc., which I
began to think was due to advancing age,
now being 65 years old, when, in the
providence of God, as I believe, Grape
Nuts was brought to my notice, and
tried as an experiment.
"In a week I found a decided improve
ment in myself, and have kept improv
ing ever Blnce, and am now being con
gratulated on the great change in my
appearance by all acquaintances. . Not
only so, but I feel I have reserve force so
that I do not feel wearied at night,
although I have worked continuously
from 7:30 A. M. until 9 P. M.
"I recommend Grape-Nuts to my friends
and acquaintances, and all of my family
use the food, and it la on the table at
every meal whatever else Is omitted. I
write this being desirous of giving vent
to the grateful feeling I entertain for the
benefits received from the use of this
Incomparable food."
The particular element which produces
the feeling of strength la the delicate
particles of Phosphate of Potash, not
the phosphate of the drugstore, but that
which is prepared by Nature and fur
nished in the field grains. This delicate
element, not observed by the taste, is
used by Nature in connection with the
albumen of food, to rebuild the gray
matter In the nerve centers throughout
the body and in the brain and solar
plexus, so that one thus nourished and
rebuilt is very sure to feel the effects of
this rebuilding within a week or ten days,
and this feeling grows and becomes fixed
as one becomes a steady, every-day user
of Grape-Nuts. "There's a Reason."

entitles him to the pity as well as the
contempt of all mankind," said Judge
Cameron, in passing on the case. "But
that a man should endeavor to con
vert others to any such deadly habits
brands him as a dangerous person. I
will give you the limit of the law
90 days at breaking rock."
Looks Idke Railroad Work.
EUGENE, Or., July 20. The South
ern Pacific Company has unloaded a
carload of scrapers at Natron during
the past week, which Is taken as an
indication by the people in this vi
cinity that the work of constructing
the Natron-Klamath extension will be
gin very soon. An official of the
company, while in Eugene yesterday,
passing through the city on his way
South, stated that the company was
looking for terminal grounds in
Eugene and that this city stood a fair
chance of becoming a division point
for all the trains of the Natron-Klamath
extension, as well as for those
of the line across the state to Ontario,

every day without know

partially burned in the
firebox. Because, with the
ordinary range draft the
air current only strikes
part of the fire. Usually
the damper door in such a
range is situated at one
end of the firebox only,
which makes your fire hot
at the draft end and cold
at the other end. Now the
draft in a MONARCH
RANGE is entirely dif
ferent. Instead of one
damper door, there are
TWO. one in each end of
the firebox, and both are
regulated by the same
handle.. So you get two
different currents of air at

JACKSONVILLE, Or., July 20. Spe
cial.) A mysterious party of men has
been seen the past couple of days survey
ing some kind of a route up Jackson
Creek, south of this place. No one has
been able to speak to them, as they dis
appear when anybody shows up. As this
