HOlt TO SPOKANE PARTY TO CROSS THE COXTIXEXT Three Men to Make 2800 Mile Trip From Spokane Across the Conti nent win Take It Leisurely in a -26-Horse Poer Auto. From Prosser to New York and Philadelphia, Is a long cry. but a Spokane boy is to make the trip in an automobile and from the plans of the party he will have the time of his life and one of the most novel and interesting vacations imaginable, Bays the Spokane Chronicle. Stanley Rogers is the lucky fellow and will drive the big Dragon car un. der the direction of A. R. McLane of Prosser, who will make the trip across the continent for the Pacific Monthly. Mr. McLane Is now in the city, having arrived Wednesday, and is having his car completely overhauled before taking the next jump, which will land him In the heart of the Rocky mountains. In the party will be Robers as dri ver. McLane, a Prosser Jeweler; R. P. Tullis. a Prosser druggist, and A. J. 'Tullis, his brother. The plan is not to attempt to make time, but to see the country and have an outing which wll long be remembered. The party carries a complete camping outfit and ts prepared to stop at any pofnt on the road which strikes its fancy. Fishing tackle, guns and camp utensils are loaded Into the car, which looks like anything but the old fashioned prair ie schooner which previously made the cros'-continent trips., ""fTVe are outfor a good time and 'nave the brightest outlook ahead of ;i E1,1,1 ill Gill vus." said Mr. McLane in speaking of thf ir!p. '"U'e have made arrange .mtTAs whereby we will gather data, photographs, and Incidentally toiled subscriptions for the Pacific Monthly en route. Anything which may be ot interest to the magazine wil be col lected and we will go out of our way to select material. "There is no hurry and we Intend 'to pay an extended visit to Yellow- stone ' Park and other points of in terest along the route. In general we will follow the Northern Pacific line east and will take the road followed - In 1908 by Gehr and Canfleld, who made the cross-continent run. "We expect to make our expenses out of our magazine work and will be sitlsfled if this feature pays the expenses as we will have a great time. If the roads get too bad to -travel we will turn in and camp until they improve. No hurry, no worry, will annoy us. It is a go-as-you-please race with picnic trimmings all . along the line." The party will leave Spokane Mon day for the east and will keep the ob jective Joint New York, always in view. Headed steadily east the car will pass over the mountainous coun- -try onto the great plains of the mid dle west, where the finest possible roads will be found. The Dragon car they are driving is a five-passenger touring car of 20 horsepower. M. McLane and Mr. " Tullis ae Joint owners and have driv en it for the past eight months., They are loud in their praises of their car, which they are certain will take them over the road in fine style. BORAH'S BIGGER BAND WAGON. Idalw's Junior Senator Seek to In crease Prestige In Boise. "'Senator Borah's band wagon" la the appellation applied to the pro poned change In the Boise postofflce, that of establishing three branch of fices In the capital city as recom mended by the Junior lieutenant from Idaho, says the Boise Capital News.

Boise haa not yet reached that point where three branch offices are needed. The free dllvery will be maintained and money orders and mall will be han dled at the branch offices. "Appointments to the branch office will be made upon recommendation of the senator and greater prestige thus gained for the office holders will be dependent upon the senator for rap polntment and candidates for the of fice will likewise require the support of the senator." The movement for three branch offices was started last February by Postmaster Fenton, who It Is rumor ed will soon be removed and a suc cessor appointed. The matter was taken up by Senator Borah and rec ommendation made for the establish ment of the branch offices. The location of the proposed branch offices as discussed, are for an office at or near the intersection of Main and Slxtenth streets, probably the corner of Thirteenth and Eastman streets; and on east Warm Springs avenue. The carriers, under the plan proposed, will make their headquar ters In the branch office in which their territory is located. ROSES FOR ALASKAN FAIR. Portland Will Furnish Blooms for 1909 Exposition. Roses as they are grown In Port land, roues of various kjnds and hues, roses shipped from the Rose City of the Pacific coast every few days for the Interior decorations, are to be one nf the features of the Oregon building at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposi tion at Seattle next year, says the Ore gon Dally Journal.

(Portland Sunday Journal.) j A truly fabulous find of placer gold has been unearthed at the base of the mountains in the forest reserve; in Idaho county, Idaho, directly east of Wallowa county, Ore., and but a1 short distance from this state's line.: Ito secure this treasure a company i 1907, and so rich was the tract that tho matter was kept secret until all legal Interests had been attended to, which was carefully done by the two attorneys in the company. When all was ready for the launchng of the enterprise, apartment 220 Commercial ! t.Ub building, this city, was secured, and an Issue of 120,000 shares of treasury stock was put upon the mar nnd It Is expected will all be taken very likely this month, or at best be- fore the end of July.. Mr. Perks had a small force of men working all wln- ter on the company's ditches and now tin 12 mlneds and laborers employed installing: a sawmill and preparing for the reception of more than 80,000 pounds of other material en route. So soon as all Is landed on the ground a larger force will be set at work, and by August 16, or not later than September 1, It Is expected to have the company's giants at work, and by December 1, the company Is confident It will return to each stockholder the entire amount of his Investment, and for the next 25 years pay dividends of from 200 to 400 per cent on all out standing stock. This is the predic tion of the men behind the proposi tion, and those who most Intimately know them will at once agree that they are not any of them addicted to visionary Illusions. A question often and reasonably asked by many persons who for the first time have read of this wonder ful channel bed of gold. Is how that It has remained for half a century when 'more than $100,000,000 were mined from the gulches emptying In to it between 1860 and 1865. The answer Is that this ground could not be mined without gravel elevators, and It never has been possible to get iheM ,nt0 tnat va,,ey unt" nnw A , handsome booklet explaining this is . mailed free to all who apply for It, ' W alilanBuIni Ihn Arifnnflnlt'i ittlnt ,and It Is certainly worth reading.

During the past year a vacuum bottle has been put .on the market which will keep contents hot for 24 hours, warm for 48 hours and cold for 72 hours. The bottle consists Of two glass bottles, Joined at the neck, one bottle being within the other, a vacuum space between the two bottles prevents outside temperature from reaching the inner one, thus permit ting contents to remain hot or cold (the same temperature as when plac ed In the bottle) for days at a time. A. C. Koeppen & Bros, the druggists, have received some and the public Is examining them every day. f Your Stomach Is Your Friend If you have a good stomach and wish to keep It, steer clear of lard-cooked food. Lard is made from hog fat, and is more apt to be impure than it is to be clean and healthful. Cottolene is the most reliable frying and shorten ing medium. It is a pure, wholesome, digestible product, that is bound to be more satisfactory than lard wherever it is given a fair test. Besides being more healthful, Cottolene is more economical than lard or cooking butter, one-third less being re quired. It will, moreover, make more nutritious food than either lard or butter. With all these advantages on the side of Cottolene, what argument have you for not using it? Your own grocer, if he is progressive, has Cottolene for sale. Buy a pail to-day, use it according to directions, and we will warrant you will never go back to the lard habit; Nature's Gift from the Sunny South An Spokane International Canadian Pacific Opportu Will Sli T cketi From nity to SPOKANE to CALcARY, ALTA. 5g6 and Return Alhorfjt!
