Mr. Buchtels letter embodies ex cerpts from letters received by the commission from the West Coast Lumbermens association and other organizations, which leave no doubt as to the grave situation confronting Oregon and other northwest states In respones to a request for specific instances of shortage and damage that has resulted, the West Coast Lumbermen's . association mentions the following car shortage: 'Albany Lumber company, Falls City Lum ber & Logging' company, Brighton Mills company, Carl E.

"In offering a solution." writes Mr. Buchtel, "we can do no better than to quote from information at hand to the effect that we have been having a preponderanve of eastbound traffic, with westbount loads not over 50 per cent of eastbound loads. which necessitates a long distance movement of empties, an dthe west bound empty movement has fallen be hind the eastbound loaded movement which means that prompt relief must tome from an Increased westbound Hnpty movement, and the facts are such as in our opinion Justify an order to that effect." - ACHES AND PAIXSNof rheumatism are not permanently, but only tem porarily, relieved by external reme dies.

Its retina is the sensitized plate of the camera and is a network of tiny nerves called rods and cones.

The eye opens, light rushes in and bathes these rods and cones, they, in turn, telegraph the impressions, to the brain, and sight is the result. ... 1 Motais proved conclusively that wearing lenses of 'various ' tints' has a marked effect upon the nervous system, some caus ing the patient to be cheerful and contented, others having the ' opposite effect.
