Would Ashland people recommend I'oan's Kidney Pills as they do if the medicine were not reliable? Would they confirm their statements after -ars have elapsed if their experi ences did not show the remedy to be deserving of it? Statements like the following must carry conviction to the mind of every reader: Mrs. C. E. Roach. 763 B street. Ashland, says: "When I suffered Irom kidney weakness, Doan's Kidney Pills helped me quickly, as no other medicine ever did. When I gave them to my little boy for kidney weakness, they stopped that annoy ing trouble." (Statement given March 12. 1913.)

Rreakfast. Miss Allle Shlnn entertained a number of young lady friends at a breakfast party last Thursday morn- neither time nor inclination to mas ter. The good old dances should not die. Dancing is one of the most healthful forms of recreation known, and many more would dance If oppor tunity offered. In order that those who love the old dances may dance them again, the management of the Bungalow plans to set aside an evening in the near future for a real old-fashioned dance. All the music played and all the dances danced will have to date j hack at least ten years before being j considered. The waltz, the three-j step, schottische. the square dances,! all will be danced. The old-time j square dance is provocative of more i jolly fun than all of the new dances j put together, and the folks who like' the old dances should turn out In great numbers for an evening of old- fashioned dancing.

The banquet at the Hotel Medford Saturday evening was one of the largest and most successful ever staged in this part of the state. The program has never been excelled in southern Oregon, and to Ben Sheldon, who had the major part of the ar rangements In charge, should go credit for staging a really great af fair.

Strahorn Survey To KlamathTalls Klamath Falls Herald: "In ten days the survey of our railroad will be into Klamath Falls, and then I will be ready to state what w ill be necessary for this city to do to get the railroad built into your city." This statement Dy Robert E. Stra horn, made this morning, tells In a nutshell the situation right now with regard to the proposed Central Ore gon railroad Into Klamath Falls. The survey crew is now camped at Olena, and the line completed almost to that point, "Except for the last ten miles into Klamath Falls and about fifty miles In Harney valley and Fort Rock country, the line of our railroad has been practically determined," said Mr. Strahorn. "About 450 miles of rails will be laid. One line will run southwest from Bend to Klamath Falls, the second southeast from Bend to Lakevlew, and from a point about twenty miles out of Bend an other will run southeast in Harney valley. The line from Bend to Klam ath Falls goes In at the head of Tonna valley, runs within two miles of Bo nanza, and then follows Lose river to Olene." Mr. Strahorn and party, consisting of Mrs. Strahorn, Chief Engineer N. H. Bogue and C. S. Hudson, president of the First National Bank of Bend, have just completed a 1,000-mile auto trip through Central Oregon and northern California and Nevada to study the traffic possibilities of those sections. "I am particularly Interested in learning the traffic possibilities of same territory Blnce I first thought of building the railroad. "It is the agricultural possibilities of central Oregon that must be known before construction of the road can be begun. Irrigation and drainage are important, and completion of these things . must seem assured. Only second In Importance Is the lumber and the tourist possibilities, although on this trip I shall see Cra ter Lake and all other attractions to learn, how far they might be exploit ed i?jy- i. , .....

Klamath Falls can be made the w holesale supply point of all the ter-: rltory around and for much that ex tends far to the east and northwest. The road will be a feeder from the adjaceut country for the Southern Pacific line into Klamath Falls." As Mr. Strahorn said when he was in Klamath Falls last fall, two things must be done for him before Con struction on the proposed road can ! home in Central Point, after an 111 begin: First, terminals and rights of j ness of a year, Thursday, August 3, way must be given by the towns and country through which the road Is to pass, and second, 25 per cent of the cost of the entire project must be sub. scribed by the towns benefited by the road, or by any other interests other than Mr. Strahorn and his backers. When these things are secured con struction of the road will begin. The main line of the proposed rail road as outlined already is all that has been decided upon. But this does not mean that lateral lines will not be constructed wherever traffic possi bilities merit branch lines. "For instance, the road from here to Bonanza may come to be a link in a road from Klamath Falls to Lake view," said Mr. Strahorn. Mr. Strahorn and party will be in this secton for about three weeks.

Jean Hastings says that since Lester's brother. Fred worked for the railroad for a month, Lester has got the "safety first" movement on the brain. E. E. Piper of the. Oregonlan says Major Patton of Hoquiam, Wash,, who was with him and Mr. Getcheli of Medford in their trip over the Sis kiyou Highway; asked every auto mobillst they met, "How far is it to the California line?' The first one told him "About six miles." They went on a few miles and met another who replied, "Oh, about six miles," to an inquiry. Major Patton could stand no more and ejaculated, "Well, thank the Lord we are not losing ground." Agent G. N. Kramer of the South ern Pacific recently returned from an extended trip through (the north west, dujlng which he must have had "some Ume:.' from thle description given.4 ' ''Cap" aays.
