AN ARMY Of
INTERN ftL BATHERS
Over half a million, bright, keen, up-to-date
Americana have found' that In
ternal Bathing is more. essential to their
well beini; than External Baths.
Have found that taken occasionally at
night they feel like different people the
next morning. No more of that bilious,
tired, nervous condition but, having by
Nature's own cleanser, antiseptic warm
water, removed all the poisonous waste
from the Lower Intestines, they awake
thoroughly refreshed by normal sleep,
with all their functions acting in healthy
accord, bright, happy, clear headed and
confident, eager and capable for the
duties of Uie day.
Mr. Waller Johnson writes: "I got a
'J. B. L. Cascade' outfit from you and
I am glad I did. It works fine. I haven't
used any medicine since the 'Cascade'
arrived do not need it. I used the 'C-ap-cade'
according to directions. It certainly
does Just what you say it will. Its use
makes one feel fine and hungry. Am
using the "Cascade" once a week now.
Diit don l need It so often.

PROFICIENT AS I.I SG CIST

dered the appointment as a Justice of

islands, but declined the office. He was
instructor in Latin, Greek. German and
French at the State Normal School of

Judge Ganteiifciein began the practice
of law in Portland in 1901 in associa
tion with James N. Davis and Arthur
L. Veasie, continuing with that firm
until his election to the circuit bench
of the fourth judicial district, Multno
mah county, in 1908. He served in his

Urban and suburban thoroughfares were
converted from peaceful channels of
traffic into playgrounds for reckless mo
toifsts. Many drivers were under the
influence of liquor, police records indicate.
Sweeping craxlly from one side of the
street to the other in their wild flights,
cutting arcs about corners, rejllng peril
ously from right to left, and dashing
headlong into buildings, the drivers were
oblivious to others' rights and safety
axioms until their mad dashes were
halted by contact with bank, automobile
or building.
One driver was a participant in four
smashups within an hour. Another cut
a se-ies of capers and finally crashed
Into a terraced Another dashed head-on
Into a building wall. A fourth cut an arc
about a corner and collided with an
automobile parked against the curb.
N. P. Sorensen, wealthy tlmberman,
afforded perhaps the most flagrant case
of traffic violation and disregard of
safety laws., reports indicate. His first
smashup occurred at East Nineteenth
and Broadway when he crashed into
the rear-end of a streetcar. He turned
to the left side of the car and proceeded
directly into another bound In the op
posite direction. Before an hour had
elapsed the same driver had collided with
an automobile at Twenty-third" and Hoyt
streets and moving away from the
scene, piloted his car over to the left f
side of the street to smash into his
fourth and last victim. A broken wheel
stood between Sorensen and further de
struction. "I guess we can dig up $1000." he is
reported to have, remarked at the police
station when he learned that his ball
had been set at that figure. "But it is
a lot of trouble to come down here."
Cliff Dunsmore, said to have been un
der the influence of liquor, hired a ma
chine from a local garage. It was with
this car that he cut capers for two
blocks before crashing into a terrace
at Mllwaukie and Boise streets, where
the machine lodged.
STEERING GEAR BLAMED
J. A. Tranch had trouble making the
corner at Twenty-first and Raleigh. He
turned his steering gear so far that
he continued around in a circle until
another automobile, parked, obstructed
his passage. Trench believes his steer
ing gear is all wrong. Police authorities
believe the trouble was confined to its
operation.
D. B. Lively also had difficulty man
aging his car about 1 :30 Saturday morn
ing. He had proceeded down Third
street to Oak. At that juncture the
machine was turned directly into the
side of the Western Union buildipg. It
didn't swerve Irt either direction, tracks
indicated, for 50 feet before it came
to a precipitous halt against the side
of the building.
