Get Rid of Pimples, Quick Ituart's Calcium Wafers Are Wonder Worker In Every Variety of Skin Troubles.

The spirit of the lowly Nasarene who says in the good book, "Charity euffer ctli long and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vauntcth not itself, is not puffed up," is being exemplified in deed and in truth In the mission of the Pis gah Home a Christian refyge where any and all fallen men. young -or old; sick or well, sober or intoxicated: em ployed or unemployed; with or without funds, are received, sheltered, warmed, nurned and fed, and no questions asked. Pisgah Home Is conducted along the most economical and humble lines. A lice of bread, a bit of fruit or vegeta ble or even a little patch which may be used in the making of a com forter, is never wasted. It is by this strict utilization of everything possible, the cooperation of the men of the home and the voluntary support of those In terested in it that it manages to carry On Its work. "The home ha no wealthy or influ ential patrons or directors; It gives no benefit entertainments but by its good deeds it is becoming known. Many hearts have been touolied by notices con cerning its activities which have ap peared in The Journal from tlm to time "and so the Lord seems to pro vide in his own good way," said Mrs. Hattle B. -Lawrencey or "Mother" Law rence as she is affectionately called, rind the Spark. "Of course we do not expect luxur ies," continued Mrs. Lawrence, who is the general superintendent of the home. "We try to provide plenty of good, clean, wholesome food In the way of bread, soups, stews, vegetables and fruits. Tea and coffee, both-of which we regard as stimulants, are not allowed and meat is served only as a special treat. The men do all the work about the house, cook ing and sitf-ving the meals, keeping the house ceai making the beds, yes and even making the bedding, fot you would be surprised to see what nice comforters they piece and put 'together. We have a good many patches given us and they are all made use- Of. Then we dye flour sacks for the linings, but sometimes we have some difficulty getting the cotton for the filling for we have to buy that outright' and we have so little money. The people who support the home are people In moderate circumstances, some of the men who come to us afe not in condition to iwork, others can't get work and the rule of the home is to accept only half of the man's earnings in case he is working. Sometimes I don't even take that, if I am not in immediate need of it an if I feel sure the man has some good use for It. "Our real aim In this work sis to start- men on the upward road and the shelter and food are tony incidental to that greater work of leading them to Christ or at least pointing them to the pathway that leads to better things. There Is always some good left In every one and we seek by prayer and personal contact to find that spark of goodness. Services of .praise, prayer" and Bible reading precede feach meal, on Wednes? day ana Friday evenings ana on Sunday afternoons services are held. Th testi mony of those wlio are converted, many of them men who have been very wicked. would melt almost any heart, so pathetic are they.". V'.ivW ; V K . , '..

Then there are old gray-haired men, some minus one or more, legs, an eye or some one of their senses. Practicaly all are wear ing the roughest of clothing and their shaggy hair and unshaven faces say more plainly than words, "What's the useT" . Those three little words embody one of the first steps downward. Many have come to the city with little or no funds, could find no employment, drifted Into bad company and finally turned to the Pisgah Home, .where none are refused admission, no matter what their condi tion may be. Xia I.ast dunce. A few months ago a man suffering from delirium tremens found his way to the home athough ina half crazed con dition. He was put to bed.. Peaceful slumber came at last and In the morning the man awoke a different person, his drunkenness gone and the decision in his mind and heart that he would try to lead a different life. With a fondness for the home which I9 al most childlike, this man is still one of the members of the big family. So faith ful and trustworthy has he proved him self about the home that he has re cently been given employment in one of the smal stores of the neighborhood where he Is doing good work. His testimony at the Sunday services never fails to help and Inspire the other men for they believe in him. He is a splendid looking man, well educated and before the drink habit seized him was a successful broker." Other than this his history is unknown to the people in charge of the home. ., Similar Instances " equally pathetio come almost daily to the notice of Mrs. Lawrence and her assltants. A man ap plied for a pace at the home last week who declared that he had gone to 12 places in search of work and in the meantime had spent his little all. An other said he has made up his mind to jump off the bridge and so end his troubles When he was directed to the home. Many of the young boys are young fellows who have left home with little or no money, got to the city, were if .FOR The epidemic of Grip, like a monster wave is extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific. ; y Don't wait till your bones be gin to ache,' take "Seventy-seven" at the first feeling of lassitude and escape Influenza, : Catarrh, pains and soreness of the Head, Back and 'Chest, Cough; Sore Throai, General Prostration andsFever, or handy, it is a small vial ot pleas ant pellets, fits the vest pocket.

Two of the prominent mission work ers of Portland, are men who were brought to see the foly and evil of their way through the Pisgah Home and they now devote their. Sunday afternoons to preaching, at the home in an effort to show others the way. Mattresses for Overflow, Mrs. Lawrence has the assistance of Mrs. Fisk In the direct work of the home, while the work of visiting among the poor and distributing any supplies that can be spared is conducted by Mrs. Beegle. Love of humanity and Chris tian consecration are the ties Which bind these women to these duties. ' The home which has been in exist ence a little more than a year, which is located at 111 Ninth avenue, is a good sized two story building. The assem bly room, dining room, office and kltehen are located on the first floor. All are furnished with the plainest of absolute necessities. Benches are sub stituted for chairs in the dining room and when there aren't enough pitchers to go around the soup is sent around in big tin lard buckets. On the second floor the big sleeping room Is located. Here there are 30 beds, some of them single and some double, but even these do not accommodate all and a stack of mattresses in one corner is carried down stairs each, night and spread on the floor of the assembly hall for the overflow. Pisgah Home was opened here by Dr. E. T. Yoakum of Los Angeles, in Oc tober, 1911. Similar institutions are conducted in Hurley, Miss., Birmingham Alabama, Spokane and Los Angeles. ' (Kpeeitl to To Journal.) -Tillamook, Or Jan. J5. With $175, 000 appropriated for road purposes, the county court la planning to make a sub stantial Increase in the mileage of good roads. A year ago, $125,000 waa appro, priated for this purpose,; but as $80,000 was needed to pay off outstanding road warrants of previous years, the amount actually available prevented the under taking of much ftew work. At this time, the rdad fund is entirely out of debt and the entire sum appropriated Is available. Work on three roads will be under taken immediately. Of these, the most important is. the road from Hebo to Doiph, a stretch of 10 miles. ThjLs la thu road used by vehicles in entering and leaving the county. The present road is privately owned for a part of the distance and a toll Is. exacted from all travelers., An entirely new survey ban been made and the old road will be abandoned as soon as the new one is completed. This road follow! Three RlveVs from Its headquarters In the Coast range near Dolph to its meeting with the Big Nestucca near Hebo. The road from -riebo to Conder bridge, a distance of two miles north from the proposed new road, waa rebuilt during the past year. XTetartg Slstrlot to Be Opened.' Bids are now being asked for the completion of the road from this city to Netarta bay. Several miles of road were built last year, but owing to lack of funds, about four miles were left unfinished. This road also 'follows a new survty and will hot only be a bet ter built road, but wilt have a much easier grade. The Netarta bay district which will be made easily accessible by the new road is considered ohe of the moKt beautiful of the resort districts in the county. Not only la there the hard sand beaoh which extends, at low water, for almost a thousand feet from the edge of vegetation, but the gradu ally sloping hillsides, which are free lrom the scrub firs and brush of ether districts, make ideal homesltes. Cape Mears, a large promotory to the north shelters the district from the prevailing northwest winds. Garibaldi Beaoh Extension. The third road which will receive Im mediate consideration ' la the stretch '-TFflTmmeeTeTo towns on Nehalem bay. This road is a part of the proposed Garibaldi Beach road which will eventually connect Til lamook bay with Nehalem bay. It Is probable that several miles of the road north from Garibaldi will be built dur ing the summer. The entire distance has been surveyed, and the roadway es taDllshed. The county Is well equipped in road machinery at this time. It now owna three seven ton gasoline rollers, one 10 ton gasoline roller, a 10 ton steam roller, three sprinklers, a scarifier, a dredge with an orange peel bucket, three rock crushers, a number of scrapers, plows, etc. Sheds have been built at various points and all machinery is kept under cover when not in use. Specifications for new roads call for substantial road building, Sixteen foot giaveled or crushed rock roadways are provided, with easy grades and good drainage. At curves, a SO foot width is built. The right of way is cleared for a distance of 16 feet, on each side of. the cei.ter line. GERMAN SOCIETIES III CONVENTION E E The, German Consolidated societies of Oregon will hold their sixth annual convention in the Swiss hall, Third and Jefferson streets, commencing at 10 o'clock this morning. These societies are composed of 3? different organisa tions located In various sections of the state, with a membership of nearly 7000. One of the most important sub jects to be discussed will be that con cerning tho appointment of a German consurtor this city. It is probable that a petition;, will be gotten up by the members of the societies to be 1 for warded to the German ambassador at Washington, IX C, asking him to take up the appointment with the home gov ernment. -.;- :,. sf!vs' ., , . -Portland has been without a German consul for the past two years..

Pa., Jan. 26. Ten tanks of oxygen pumped through tons of coal under which he was burled saved the life of Joseph Foerester, a laborer em ployed at the J-eague island power house, today. Stationed at an open chut through which coal was passing. Foerester missed his footing and slid Into the runway. A workman saw him .drop and called for help. The coal was shut off from above, but not before much had pounded on Foerester's body. The chief hospital steward had an Iron pipe, capped with a piece of paste board to keep out the gas, driven through the coal until it was judged it must have reached Foerester. The pasteboard was then punctured with a piece of wire and while workmen dug the coal out of the bunkers, oxygen was pumped through the pipe. Foerester was taken out unconscious but alive. No bones were broken. TRADE JOURNAL PRAISES J. K. GILL EMPLOYES Kind and complimentary things are aald about J. B. Hlbbard, manager of the office furniture department of the J. K.
