Whether the real estate deals are being made In connection with the, purchase for grounds for depot and yard facilities or whether for spe culation reports do not disclose. Well known Nez Perce men are Interested In the deals and are directing same The development is believed to be the outgrowth of a move made here two months ago, when steps were taken to orgalze a company to build the branch line. It was stated at that time that the Northern Pacific was back of the move. Now It is rumored that both the Northern Pacific and O.. R. & N. are In the deal and that the branch will be built In connection with the general Joint construction agreement under which the roads are working In this field. This report is to the effect that a branch will also be built to the Craig mountain flec tion. , Following the news that the Kerr- Glfford company had purchased the Kettenbach grain company, report in circulation here that Balfour-Guth rle, the big Importing firm, is nego tlating for the purchase of the Voll mer-CJearwater company's grain bus iness in this field.

THE STRENUOUS LIFE. Pulls so Hard on the Stomach It Must Have Help. The stress and strain of the strenu ous life in both city and country makes stomach troubles. Five people suffer today where one did 10 years ago with sick headache, dizziness, flatulence, distress after eating, specks before the eyes, bloating, nervousness, sleepless ness and the many other symptoms of Indigestion. All who are suffering with stomach troubles, and that means at least two out of three in Pendleton and other towns, should use Ml-o-nl stomach tablets. Nothing else is as safe, yet effective; nothing else can be so thor oughly relied upon to relieve all trou bles from indigestion aa Ml-o-na, 8o reliable Is Ml-o-na that Tallman aV Co. with every 60-cent box they ell, give a guarantee to refund the money unless the remedy cures. 1 THE PASTIME PICTURE SHOW SELLERS & MATLOCK, Props.
