ing out invitations for meals, parties,
and entertainments for the men, etc.

High Water Stops
Trains and Floods
Coquille Valley
Marshfield, Jan. 20. Trains to and
from points in the Coquille valley have
stopped running on account of high
water In the Coquille river, and the
tracks are being covered with water in
places. Last reports from that section
were that the water was higher than
for many years.
Considerable damage to ranches along
the river is feared. L. p. Branstetter,
who has a herd of cattle on the low
lands, is reported to have 150 head of
fine cattle cut off from the mainland
by the floods, and if the high water con
tinues the stock probably will be lost.
The water of Coos river still is high.
Some of the landings have been carried
away and farms are being overflowed.
Reports from Allegany, at the head of
navigation on the north fork of the
river, say that the water is up to the
door of the hotel, which is some distance
back from the river at normal times.
The rainfall for 2 4hours ending Sat
urday was nearly four Inches and
much water fell during the night. There
ia no promise of the rain stopping.

Mrs. E. H. Boots, a well known resi

statement :
"Any lady or gentleman can darken
their gray or faded hair, and make it

half a pint of water add 1 ounce of
bay rum, one small box of Bar bo Com

is not a dye. it does not color the most
delicate scalp ; is not sticky or greasy
and does not rub off. It will make a

A Boy Trapper Comes to Beavertown
THERE was a camp of lumbermen
in the Great Forest not far from
Mirror Pond. A Country Boy said to
the men one day. "I've brought my trap
.with me and I'm going to make some
money catching those Beavers at Mirror
Pond."
The men asked, "How much can you
sell their skins for?" And the Country
Boy answered, "Oh, I can sell each
Beaver skin for about $2 apiece. My !
I'll make a lot of money this fall, for
the Beavers over there are as thick as
blackberries." And the Country Boy
clapped his hands in glee, and whistled
as he danced, reckoning that he would
make a pile of money in trapping.
Right after supper, that very eve
ning, the Country Boy started off for
Mirror Pond with his steel txap, and
he had visions of making lots and lots
of money by catching all the Beavers
and selling their beautiful chestnut
brown fur suits, to be made into gar
ments for i people who have mo"hey to
buy such, handsome furs.
When the Country Boy reached Mir
ror Pond, the red sun was just settling ;
and its glory turned the surface t of
the Pond into molten gold. It ww a
magnificent sight to see Mirror ond
gilded with this golden light, witfi.atje
green trees around the shores reflected
in the clear and sparkling waters.
But I'm afraid that the Country Boy
was thinking only of the dollars he
could get by killing the Beavers and
selling their handsome silky fur coats
to some fur dealer.
The Country Boy was very crafty ;
lie crept around the Pond softly., so as
to make no noise, and hid as much as
possible behind trees, bushes and the
tall grass.
And he said to himself, "Now I will
dig a little hole in the Beavers' dam
on top, so that the water of Mirror
Pond will run away and I'll set my

"Fatty" Arbuckle in "Camping
Out" Winner of Many a
Hearty Laugh.
IMAGINE a wife who spends so much
time at the Household Duties club
that she is unable to take care of her
own home, thus neglecting friend hus
band. In this case Roscoe (Fatty) Ar
buckle, in "Camping Out," the new
headline feature at .the Liberty, is the
suffering spouse, who comes home every
night only to discover that his wife is
conspicuous by her absence.
Cold meals gathered from the ice box
are his portion. Cobwebs cover the
dishes In the sink, and hang gloomily
over the kitchen range. When poor
Fatty opens the oven a proud house cat
emerges followed by three kittens. He
writes a note to his missing wife say
ing he is going "camping," where he
can do his own cooking.
Armed with various books of instruc
tions concerning his new life Fatty
boards a steamer for Catalina island.
Here old kid fate takes a hand. Fatty
meets a neglected wife neglected but
pretty. She is running away from her
husband. And all , because she had
proved to be too much of a housewife
for him.
When Fatty's wife comes home she
discovers that he has eloped with the
cook book. Being a woman of action
she pursues him. On the Bteamer she
meets' the husband of the little wife
who neglected the cafes for her home.
When they reach Catalina islands they
lose no time. From the top of a rugged
mountain peak they see below in a
beautiful camp Fatty handing a towel
from his tent to a girl in a bathing suit.
The deserted wife and husband charge
the camping grounds and the matri
monial fray is on. There follow many
marital mixups which result in both
husbands escaping to the sea In a small
boat, whence they dive overboard.
Mrs. Charlie , Chaplin in "Borrowed
Clothes" is an added attraction.
GUARD NOTES
The two companies of engineers are
doing well at the armory with one
night of drill and one of lectures a
week. Captain William H. Emerlc,
commanding Company . and Captain
A. W. Foster, commanding Company B,
are anxiously awaiting the day for
mustering in as part of the National
guard of Oregon by some federal of
ficer. The companies will go on the
floor of mustering night with 109 men
and officers,, or more, which is more than
the minimum strength required of engi
neer companies. They were formed by'
special request of ;the war department
and will apply for active service in the
relief of war torn organizations just
as they have been accepted and en
rolled. a
Captain Charles E. Grove and his of
ficers in charge af Company F, Fri
day night completed their military
records and papers and can call out
the company on a notice of an hour,
and it is said that in 30 minutes a
large portion of the company can be lo
cated and en route to the armory. The
company is one -of the. four - to be
mustered in as soon as a federal officer
can be secured to inspect the men.
The Oregon Military police are in
full charge of the armory, day and night.
No person gets by the narrow entrance
without satisfying the armed guard on
duty, and is subject to the scrutiny of
a commissioned or non-commissioned of
ficer. Captain John F. McCormick, cus

Beavers will never see the trap." .
And he chuckled to himself, as' he
said, "I know all about the Beavers
habits, and I know that they will come
tonight and mend their dam ; and then
my trap will catch their hands and
feet while they work."
But he did not know how clever
Beavers are, and he never thought, for
a minute, that perhaps the bright eyes
of Tom and Jerry, the Beaver twins,
might have been watching him from
the bushes as he set the trap ! Was
this true? You will hear tomorrow.
Tomorrow No Beavers Are Caught.

Because fortune throws him in com

HER STOMACH
TROUBLES ARE
THINGOF PAST
Indianapolis Resident Regained
Her Appetite When She Used
This Strength-Ging Remedy.
People do not know that they have
stomachs until something goes wrong
with the physical machinery and the
protesting organ causes pain and dis
tress, sleepless nights and restless days.
There is probably no more abused or
gan in the body than the stomach, which
is expected to take all kinds of food
and drink at all hours and accept the
task without rebellion.-
One of the causes of stomach trouble
is poor blood. When the appetite fa'le
and food sours on the stomach causing
distress, -when tha heart flutters on
slight exertion, and black spots appear
before the eyes, it is generally proof that
the blood lias lost its potency. Restore
the rich color to the blood and Increase
its quantity and you have taken the
first and most important step toward
increasing the efficiency of the entire
system.
Mrs. Julia Shockley of No. 368 E.
McCarty street, Indianapolis, Ind., tells
how she overcame the miseries of stom
ach trouble and regained her health.
She says:
"About a year ago I became greatly
run down as a result of hard work and
worry. My stomach was so disordered
that after eating even carefully selected
food . I had severe pains and my heart
fluttered. There wer pains in my left
aide and in the small of my back.
"I saw an announcement of Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills in an Indianapolis
paper and began the : treatment. I felt
better in a week's time - and In four
weeks ray appetite was restored. My
stomach no longer bothers me and I
can .eat anything without distress. My
heart beats regularly again and the
pains in my side and back have dis
appeared. -1 take great pleasure in rec
ommending Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to
my friends for I have great confidence
in their power."
Keep your system tpned up with Dr.
Williams Pink Pill and foods that once
distresseed you will be harmless, ex
posure will bring no fears of rheuma
tism and neuralgia and even germ dis
eases need hardly to be dreaded.
Try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for ane
mia, rheumatmm, neuralgia, nervousness.
Take them as a tonic if you are not in
the best physical condition and cultivate
a resistance that will keep you well and
strong. Get a bo:; from the nearest
drug store and begin this treatment now.

'Officer 666":
Wins at
Alca
zar
Stock Players Add New Laurels
to Their Ability In Pres
entation. ONE of our old melodramic farce
friends, "Officer 666," added new
laurels to the playing ability of the
Alcaxar Players Sunday at its initial
showing for the week.
An aristocratic thief, with a craving
for the possession of works of art, a
bored American, who has had the weight
of an inheritance of -millions cast upon
his shoulders when quite young, "Of
ficer 666" and the girl, principal char
acters in the comedy, all get mixed and
stirred into a conglomeration of mirth
ful circumstances, when the young mil
lionaire, Travers Gladwin, the role
taken by Edward Everett Horton, re
turns unexpectedly to his home from
abroad.
Characters presented gave a wider
ranga of action in which the Alcazar
Players may portray their ability than
any other play presented this season.
The scenes call forth quick action,
thought and thorough precision of de
tail, which was accomplished smoothly.
Alice Fleming, cast as Helen Burton,
does herself proud in the role of the
heroine.
"Officer 666" is a particularly pleas
ing and exhuberant comedy It will
