Nichols lays claim to the distinc tion of being Oregon's oldest ex-ofB-clal. That is, he believes himself to be the man in the state who held offlc2 here the greatest number of years ago. The photograph, by the way, was taken in 1882. Mr. Nichols is now 88 years of age. It was in June of 1846, at the first election held in Polk County under the provisional government, that Mr. Nich ols, now best known as "Uncle Frank, ' ..'J -a. ?-:'?; B. F. Mchols, Who Says FTe Is Oregon's Oldest cx-Of ficinl. was elected Sherin. At that time his jurisdiction reached south as far as the California line. After the-Territory of Oregon was organized by act of Con gress, Mr. Nichols again served as Sheriff for two terms, commencing in 1852. In 1859 he was appointed County Clerk of Polk County by Ben Hayder, at that time County Judge. In 1877 Mr. Nichols came to Central Oregon, when about all the territory between the Cascade and Blue Moun tains was embraced in the official boun daries of Wasco County.

Under the direction of the superinten dent, Mrs. Strieker, the Christian Church Sunday school will observe Christmas in a unique manner. For several weeks the members, of the school have been planning "A Giving Christmas." Each class, under the direction of Its teacher, contributed a number of use ful articles for a box to be sent to an orphans' home in Kansas City, which Is supported by the church. On ac count of distance the box had to bo sent Thursday and on Wednesday even ing a Christmas party was given the children In the church parlors, at which time a tree bearing the various gifts was on display, so that the school could see the result of their labor. The Swedish select oak, which has been developed by the government, first being- in troduced in this country in 1899 from Si beria, Is turning out very satisfactorily. Lest year the total yield was B0.000.00O bushels. It was first grown on the grounds of the experiment station at Pullman, Wash. EaFlF-fa Ma Syrup Will Surprise You Costs Little, but tbere Is Noth ing Better at any Price, fully Guaranteed. 3IE Here is a home-made remedy that takes hold of a coujrh almost instantly, and will usually conquer an ordinary cough in 24 hours. Hiis recipe makes a pint enough for a whole family, lou couldn't buy as much or ns good ready made cougli syrup for $2.50. Mix one pint of granulated sugar with y. pint of warm water, and 6tir 2 minutes. 1'ut 2i ounces of Hinex (fifty cents' worth) in a pint bottle, and aM the Sugar Svrup. This keeps perfectly and has a pleasant taste children like it. Braces up the appetite and is slightly laxative, which helps end a cough. You probably know the medical value of pine in treating bronchial asthma, bronchitis, spasmodic croup and whoop ing cough, l'inex is a most valuable concentrated compound .. of Norway white pine extract, rich in guaiacol and other natural healing pine elements. Other preparations will not work ia this combination. The prompt results from this inexpen sive remedy have made friends for it inl thousands of homes in the United States and Canada, which explains why the plan has been imitated often, but never; successfully.
