The design of the City of Portland, the first Columbia river motor ship, has been purchased by the Canadian government. Acceptance of the plans of this ves sel U regarded as the biggest victory that the. builders of wooden ships have yet won. Th British, the leading . ship-owning country of the world, ac cepting the design will. It la believed', result In a new confidence in the ves sels. The City of Portland was conceived and built by the St. Helens Shipbuild ing company, of which Charles R. Mc Cormlck Is the principal stockholder. Following that firm's lead the wooden ahlp has sprung into immediate pop ularity in thl country and Is being Widely copied. On the Columbia river alone seven yards are turning out over 40 vessels of that type. ,The Canadian government, watching the experiment, has decided to build nine , great auxiliary lumber and freight carriers. The derision to buv th nlnnn and specifications of the City of Portland were made only arter that vessel had completed a record voyage between Astoria and port Plrle, Australia. It meant that the Canadian govern ment, anxious to find an outlet for the lumber of the western slopes of north ern Canada, decided that the wooden ship idea is profitable. The nine vessels, which are to be built in Vancouver and Victoria, will tost, all told, about J4, 000. 000 TheyJft'niatllla , will bo built inder a subsidiary ar rangement between the William Brown company of Montreal and the Canadian government. Already the Brown company has formed, by permission of and with the subsidy of the government, a company to be called the Brown Auxiliary Lum ber Vessel company. It Is organized for 16,000.000. The Danish and Norwegian people have already become interested In the Columbia river moiorship. A. O. An- dersen & Co., with headquarters here, have several building on the river, while the Heath Shipbuilding company have closed with Norwegian firms for building six motorships.

Start Tomorrow and Keep It Up Every Morning Get In the habit of drinking a glass of hot water before breakfast I We're not here long, so let's make our stay agreeable. Let us live well. est well, digest well, work well, aleep well, and look welL What a glorious condition to attain, and yet how very easy it is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath. Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise, split ting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stag' nant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning, before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate In it to wash from the stomach, liver and bowels the previous day s indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach. Is wonderfully In vigoraung. 41 cleans out all "the sour fermentations, gases, wast and acidltv and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While .you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phos phate is quietly extracting a large vol ume or water rrom tne blood and get. ting ready for a thorough flushing of an tne insiae organs. The millions of people who are both ered with constipation, bilious spells, fciomacn irouiiie; oiners who have sal low skins, blood disorders and slcklv complexions are urged to get a quarter pouna limestone phosphate from the drug store. This will cost very little, qui is auiiiciem to make anyone a pro nounced crank on the subject of Inside bathing before breakfast. - t ft vxt... . v : ibj iMSBSkmftsaaass.

Smith wanted to open a grocery store on East Fifteenth street near Brazee street. Residents of the Irvlngton district were shocked; they wanted s no grocery store within the residential district They began to plan to keep the store out of the dis trict. Smith had some Ideas as to a build ing for a grocery store and worked them out with J. H. Tillman, owner of the property. A building prmit was secured and work began. The building is finished now and the grocery store In operation. Design Is Unique. The structure Is unique and one of the most attractive in the city. Look ing at the structure from the outside no one would ever suspect that It held a grocery Btock. Inside, while gro ceries are on the shelves, one gets the idea of a comfortable home. The building is a one story struc ture, colonial style, and occupies ground 42 by 55 feet. It has been built back a distance of 30 feet from the sidewalk. Broad cement walks lead from the sidewalk to the eight foot front veranda and large foxwood plants have been placed In front. The windows are curtained and flower boxes are on the window ledges. Unlike other grocery stores the place has no show windows. Plreplaee Xs Provided. Inside the residence idea had been fully carried out, although It Is not used for a residence. A large and at tractive fireplace Is to be found on one side. The shelves are step like and unique in appearance. A bubbling fountain is one of the Interior fix tures. No groceries are delivered via the front door. They are taken out a doer in the rear and delivered by auto mobile. A concrete walk leads to the street from this rear door and the de ception Is complete. j. he store was opened Saturday night and Mr. Smith says that oppo sition to the place Is rapidly dwind ling away.

You will find' all itching and digging of the scalp will , stop instantly, and your hair will be fluff y, - lustrous, aiosay, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better Adv.; CLAIM ATTACKERS FAILED1 i Straggle Is Classed as Climax of tbe Balkan Campaign by the Central Fowers in maport on Subject. . London, Oct. 4. (I. N. 8.) Ona of the great battles' of the war Is raging today along the border of Roumanla frcm Turtukal. south of the Danube river to the Black sea. Reports from the Roumanian front agree that the initiative is in the hands of the Russo-Roumanian forces. The titanic struggle is classed by military critics as tho climax of the Balkan campaign of the central powers. Berlin claims the attackers have failed to pierce the front of Field Mar shal von Mac ken sen-at Dobrudja. In terest centers in the batle between the Roumanians who crossed to the south bank of the Danube, south of Bucharest, and Bulgarian forces pro tecting the Vardar railroad. Bitter fighting Is unofficially reported under way. No official word has come from Ber lin since the report that Austrian mon itors had destroyed bridges over the Danube behind the Roumanlana Ob servers concede that the position of the crossing forces will be perilous un less they have sufficient strength to hold the 'hastily entrenched lines until reinforcements arrive. Sofia Admits Invasion. Sofia, Oct 4. (U. P.) Bulgarian forces have occupied the Roumanian Island of Malakkalafat, In the Danube, near VIdin, It was officially announced today. The war office admitted at the same time that "considerable units" of Rou manlana crossed , the Danube and In vaded Bulgaria before Bulgarian moni tors destroyed a pontoon bridge. The river was bridged by the enemy near RIahovo. Bulgarian artillery has stopped, the enemy's offensive on the Besaul-Am-zacea-Pervell line. A previous official statement from the Bulgarian war office said that Rou manian troops were transported across the Danube in boats. Apparently, after the first force was transported in this manner, pontoons were thrown across the river and reinforcements passed into Bulgaria. Attacked on Three Sides. London, Oct. 4. (U. P.) The Rou manian army that crossed the Danube into Bulgaria la under attack from three sides. Small Bulgarian forces, detached from the garrisons at Rutschuk and Billstra, advanced against the Invaders from west and east while German, Bul garian and Turkish troops moved up the Varna railway began a general as sault. The battle has been raging since Monday, with the result still in doubt. At the cams time, the fighting In Dobrudja and Transylvania, where the Roumanians are on the offensive. Is growing more violent With their Rus sian allies, the Roumanians are attack ing with the utmost vigor, seemingly to prevent the enemy from shifting re inforcements to meet the Roumanian Invaders. No anxiety 1 felt here for the safety of the Roumanian army In Bulgaria, despite the German official statement that a pontoon bridge in the rear of the Invading army has been destroyed by enemy monitors.
