STATE DRUGGISTS MAY '
COME TO PENDLETON.
Locnl Druggists Are Going After Next
Annual Convention of Pliarnvn
' cists.
An earnest effort Is to be made to
bring the next convention of the state
druggists' association to this city and
Pendleton pharmacists will go to Long
Beach In July with the intention of
capturing that honor for Pendleton.
"No session of the druggists' asso
ciation has ever been held In eastern
Oregon and we think it is time this
section of the state Is being recogniz
ed," declared A. C. Koeppen today.
Acting upon the desire to have their
fellow pharmacists come here the
Koeppen brothers and other local men
are planning a little campaign to that
end. The session this year will be
held at Long Beach on July 7, 8, 9,
and 10. At that time the time and
place for the next meeting will be de
cided upon.
While plans have not been fully
perfected it is suggested by Mr. Koep
pen that a portion of the convention
time be passed In this city and the re
mainder at Wenaha springs.
In many respects the druggists'
conventions are more In the nature of
outings than business gatherings.
While some business is transacted,
those In attendance also have much
time for pleasure and. it Is believed
that the attractions of the Blue moun
tain resort will appeal to them. The
wives and daughters of the druggists
also accompany them upon their an
nual gatherings and the sessions are
very' pleasant socially. Last year the
convention was held at Seaside at the
same time as the O. N. G. encampment.

Her LitUe Child.
Tacoma, Wash., June 20. Tearing
down the curved grade on the east
side of the. Puyallup river bridge
early this morning, the last outbound
lnterurban train from Tacoma to Se
attle passed over the prostrate form
of Mrs. George Sloan, an Indian wo
man about 30 years old, who lay
asleep on the track with her 5-months-old
baby at her side.
Both of the woman's legs were sev
ered near the hips, but the baby was
not bruised or Injured. It is believed
the babe will die from exposure. Mrs.
Sloan was hastened to the hospital,
dying a few hours later from the
shock and loss of blood.
As the train bore down uoon the
woman she was aroused from the deep
fatigue and raising herself to a sitting
posture, frantically grabbed the sleep
ing baby and tossed it from the rails.
Barely had the tiny bundle been hurl
ed away than the train passed over
the woman's limbs knd with a shriek
she fell back unconscious.

The public choices for the ra will

which meets with favor.

and Quality
appeal to the Well-informed In every

manent success and creditable stand
ing. Accordingly, It is not claimed
that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of
Senna is the only remedy of known
Talue, but one of many reasons why
It Is the best of personal and family
laxatives Is the fact that It cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the Internal
organs on which it acts without any
debilitating after effects and without
having to increase the quantity from
time to time
It acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as a laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as It is free from all
objectionable substances. T get Its
beneficial effects always purchase the
genuine manufactured by the Cali

Speer of Carml. 111., has been here for
several days and has Just completed
his Investigation of conditions, the
amount of wheat raised and the prob
able cost of erecting a flouring mill

Parties from Kentucky are also cor
responding with the commercial bod
ies with a view to starting In the mill
business here. In thp last two years
the acreage of wheat has Increased

There is something In the good

Is always felt by the owner that
Is, In words, hard to define. Ask
your friend, who has a good
watch a watch that keeps per
fect time how much he will
take for It and he will laugh at
you. It is because there Is that
attachment to It that knowl
edge of Its faithfulness that
places It above Its actual Intrin

of watches we sell, and only
these kind you become atatched
