LOCAL IN BRIEF,
George A. Houck, the well
known goat breeder and dealer, is
in Lincoln county this week talk
ing goats. As well be seen by a
notice in another column, Mr.
Houck will have an auction sale of
goats at his ranch near Monroe on
June 12. Our ranchers who want
a start in this valuable iudustry
might club together and send one
of their number out there to make
the purchases. By so doing the
cost of getting the animals into
Lincoln county would be but very
little per head. Lincoln county
needs goats 250,000, Mr. Houck
says ami here is a chance to
secure a few.

Alder Lodge, the pretty home of
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Penn of Ya
quuia, was me scene ot. a very en
joyable social event last Saturday'
evening in honor of the birthdays
of the hostess and Mrs. G. R.
Schenck of Toledo. The rooms
were beautifully decorated with
flowers, ferns and the always appro
priate and lovely national colors.
Vocal and instrumental music and
jolly conversation caused the time
to pass rapidly as it always does
at the Penn home and there was
the customary accompaniment of
refreshments, prepared by the host
ess herself, who has no superior in
the culinary art. Mrs. Penn was
therecipieut of a handsome four
piece silver tea set, each guest
being represented in the gift. She
also received other beautiful re
minders of the occasion, one being
from her daughter Miss Clair, now
visiting at Chicago. It is proper
to remark here that there was not,
apparently, a younger person than
the hostess present, although the
occasion marked her three-score
years. Those present were: Mr.
and' Mrs. Williani Toner, Masters
Alfred and - Claude Toner, Mr. and
Mrs. J. Blaser, Miss Jennie Blaser,
Mr. Fred VValch," Miss Hazel
vValch, all of aquiua; Mr. and
Mrs. G.' R'. Schenck, Miss Daisy
Pattison, Mr. and Mrs.C. F. Soule,
of Toledo. Others had been honored
with invitations to the pleasant
event, but the arrival ahead of time
of "the evening train and other ob
stacles upset their calculations. It
was at a late hour when the Ya
quina guests dispersed to their
homes, leaving behind the usual
shower of congratulations and good
wishes The Toledo guests en
joyed the hospitality of Mr. and
Mrs. Penn until Monday morning.

"It is with a good deal of pleasure
and satisfaction that I recommend
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy," says Druggist
A. W. Sawtelle, of Hartford, Conn.
"A lady customer, seeing the rem
edy exposed for sale on my show
case, said to me: 'I really believe
that medicine saved my life the past
summer while at the shore,' and she
became so enthusisastic over its
merits that I at once made up my
mind to recommend it in the future.
Recently a gentleman came into my
store so overcome with colic pains
that he sank at once to the floor. I
gave him a dose of this remedy
which helped him. I repeated the
dose and in fifteen minutes he left
my store smilingly informing me
that he felt as well as ever." Sold
