PARK SIX- DAILY EAST OREGONIAN, PENDLETON. OREGON. TUESDAY, JANUARY II, 1I0. EIGHT PAGES. SENATE PURCHASES MOTLEY ARRAY OF ARTICLES FOR CONVENIENCE OE MEMBERS Washington, Jan. 11. Purchases made in the course of a year for thq e of the senators, directly and Indi rectly, make up a list almost Infinite )a ita variety. They are set forth in detail in the aaitua. report of the secretary of the cnate and in strict accordance with the law that requires the publication f the record of every expenditure, he allows no item to escape. There are articles for business and for com fort, for the medicine chest and for the toilet. Regard for manly charms still en dures in the senate, tempestuous ques tions of state to the contrary notwith standing. In the secretary's . report. Just Issued, it appears that four doz en bottles of popular grades of co logne and a gallon of another brand f cologne were a part of the stores laid In last year, a fragrant reminder f olden times when gallant beaux were wont to meander about In an Invisible zone of incense-'.aden atmos phere. Thus romance lives on and on and anybody not liking cologne can lump it. Another reminder of the good old days is the habit of taking snuff. It till lives, and a single invoice of two pounds of Copenhagen snuff indicates that even In the council house of the nation there exists a demand for this solace of old age. Fall.ng hair, too, appears to be an issue. There is an item of one dozen bottles of a cele brated brand of hair tonic, $27.75, and two bottles of another brand, $1.50, not quite so celebrated. A lit tle further along are other items re minding the reader again of the age of perfume. A dram of oil of rose at $1, three ounces of rose extract, at $1.26 and three ounces of heliotrope extract, also at. $1.26, have all been drawn upon to enhance the salubrious senatorial presence. Ills come to senators as to common mortals and natural enough It Is that the chamber be fortified against the dread invasion of germs and bacilli.. Stovaine has not been adopted, but the senate batteries bristle with three bottles of bromo seltzer, three bottles of bromo caffeine, three bottles of Abbey's salts, one dozen bottles each of pepsin tablets, Jamaica ginger, vas eline, listerine (large size); one doz en packages of laxative bromo-qu.n-ine, one dozen packages of court plas ter, one dozen seidlitz powders, one pound of soda mint tablets, 200 rhin itis tablets, 500 lithla tablets, one pound of bicarbonate, soda tablets, six ounces of aromatic spirits of ammon ia, one case of Hunyadi water, one quart of ol.ve oil, two quarts of am monia, and so on through a long list. Two kips of chamois skins at $43. 20, two ounces of quince seed and six ounces of bergamot were also among the things laid in stock. Soap? .Yes, there was half a gross of imported French soap, perfumed, $44.65. Four gross of another fancy soap cost $121.40 and there was a lot of three other less expensive brands. In the supplies of last year the sen ate bought one bottle each of mustang liniment, "gargling oil and North Car ol, na tar. It took in large amounts of timothy hay, oats, meal and bran. The old joke about the senator's breakfast food is outlawed by the statute of limitations, however. The cereals and such are not for the sen ators but for the senate stables. Other entries show the purchase of one gal lon of Neat's foot oil, $1; one quart of foot dressing, 75r cents, two mane brushes, 75c, and three pairs of iron holdback hoops, $1. Some of the magic maneuvers in the senate may possibly be explained by the 'fact that 50 gallons of Alla din Oil were bought for senatorial use. Some other 1. quids were: Four gallons of alcohol, 25 barrels of strain ed West Virginia oil, one barrel of formaldine, and five gallons of witch hazel. In the first two months of 1909 the senators consumed 159 cases of ap olllnaris water, valued at $139S and 99 cases of lithla water valued at $433. Quinine pills were bought by the thou sand and frequently. Seventy-five pages of the report are devoted to a record of telegrams received or sent at government ex pense. The statesmen have the right to charge Uncle Sam with the cost of telegraphing about official business, but they must acquaint the secretary with the name of the person to whom a telegram Is sent, the town and the price. In the payrolls there appear many employes whose names are similar to those of senators. If this similarity indicates kinship 'It appears that at least one-third of the senators have provided for relatives on the payroll One of the senators has three mem bers of his family at the trough.. A year of tho senate, counting sal aries and all expenses, cost tho gov ernment $1,826,452.88. . 1 "THE LAND OP NOD" TS GREAT SCENIC PRODUCTION A beautiful production of musical comedy and extravaganza will occupy the stage of the Oregon theater Friday, January 14, when "The Land of Nod" will be presented. This is ono of those mnsslvo organizations which are characterized by a plentl tude of comedians, singers and danc ers, and numerous chorus and ballet, and In which scenery, costumes and "effects" are lavishly displayed. "The Land of Nod" has Impressed itself strongly on all who have witnessed it on account of Its decidedly unique character creations, such as "tho Man in the -Moon," "Welsh Rarebit," "Sandman." "King t and Queen of Hearts." "April Fool," and similar unusunl personages. The locale in which they move Is only encountered in tales of fairyland and In Arabian Nights. It is all clever and Interest ing and its comedy Is whole and good. The musical score contains plenty of the jingling, catchy sort of composi tion, which enlivens and satisfies, Practically the same excellent cast which made the "Land of Nod" so conspicuous among New York suc cesses constitutes the present com pany, including Knox W.lson, who will be seen in his original part. Prom'nent in- the cast are Noil Mc Neil and Anna McNabb. The sole o seats begins next Thursday at 10 a. m. The company will arriv-j in Pen dleton on the Walla Walla morning train. a vHt?. niiiii ri WW OF THROAT AND LUNG EH1ES IW 111 II for COUGHS AND COLDS CURES mfHRI DISEASES D AT LUNG SAVED HER SON'S UFE My son Rex was taken down a year ago with lung trouble. We doctored some months without Improvement. Then I bsgan giving Dr. ICing's New Discovery, and I soon noticed a change for the better.

SOLD AND GUARANTEED BY TALI.MAN A CO. 50c AND $1.00 I Eg Came Near Choking to Death. A little boy, the son of Chris. D. Peterson, a well known resident of the village of Jacksonville, Iowa, had a sudden and violent attack of croup. Much thick stringy phlegm came up after giving Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mr. Peterson says: "I think he would have choked to death had we not given him this remedy." For sale by all good dealers. And now read the advertisements. Value of Advertising to the Buyer By Seth Brown in the Commercial Union We hear a good deal about the good af ad vertising to business. Now suppose we turn the subject around and look at it from the other the buyers Bide. Good is mighty broad. It takes in both sides. If it ia too heavy on one side it ceases to be good. Ita power and efficiency is relative to its fierfecfion of balance usefulness to buyer and seller. And now for the buyer. Life is more a scientific problem today than yesterday. Tomorrow it will be more perfect. The striving, pushing, jamming and gen eral hurry of mankind is not an evidence of utrest, but rather of continual effort tow ards a more perfect and harmonious state of existence. Trying to get on easy street mentally, physically and financially. Trying to free ourselves from the bondage t'i clumsy methods the ox-team part of our existence. Trying, each in his sphere, tc live better, fiijoy more comforts, better picture?, wear more harmonious clothes and eat better grub. Into this mass of human striving comes a man like Ileinz, of Pittsburg, for instance, of Frank Van Camp, of Tndianapolis or a hundred other ordinary mortals who have just done a little in making things more comfortable- for our irtsides. Every farmer's wife and some city wives know how to bake beans and "put up" pick Its but Ileinz and Van Camp do it a little nioro scientifically and then everybody can't be a farmers' wife. Ileinz used to grate up horseradish and peddle it from basket. That, and the good influence of his mother was his business foundation. His son told me all about it, ''but that is another story." I don't know how Frank Van Camp hap pened to start baking beans. It doesn't matter. Somehow Ileinz and Van Camp learned how to do an old fashioned thing a little bet ter than most honekeepers can do it and a rrtighry sight better than the majority of "dear little wifevs." .Men and women like good things to eat. They have a right to the best. Beans and pickles are worth while if they are right Van Camp and Ileinz know how to make the "worth while" kind everytime. But how is the wife to know which cann ed beans or bottled pickles to trust ? , By the name of the baker and the pickle man on the package. ' Advertised made known. Pickles and beans are only used as a type an index of hundreds of other good ad vertised things. Drop the wife down in a country where advertising is unkonwn and her days would be full of sorrow and her husband's nights full of bad dreams. It's advertising that has made us more civilized. It smooths off the rough edges of ray ex perience and lets us glide smoothly down the v.'ay in the big open peaceful sea of har mony and good living. It costs the advertiser a lot of money to make and maintain a reputation. He can never do it without the right kind of goods as a foundation. But n foundation is not a home. It is a mighty good and important beginning but regular, persistent, intelligent advertising is the superstructure. It tells mankind how to buy safely wirh assured satisfaction. From a buying viewpoint mankind is 90 per cent feminine most critical buyers of rll. And there you are. Those who can advertise their store or product in harmony with this simple story can win. Those who cannot might study law, med i 'no, preaching, be a politician or mission ary. The public will overlook shortcomings in oilier directions, but in the purchase of its necessities and luxuries it needs no text b.-k or philosophy to prove value. And it has learned that advertising is a short cut 'to what it wants "and whatit can depend on. The value of advertising to the buyer is becoming higher every day. BRAZIL AIDS 1 DOES MUCH TO PROMOTE DltY FARMING IDEA BURGLAR PLAYED FLCTE TO DROWN NOISE MADE South American Republic Builds Rail ways, Irrigation Works and High ways to Assist Interior Farmers Adopts Legislation to Aid In Reclamation. .Washington. The Republic of Bra zil Is patterning after the United States In regard to the Irrigation of lands at the expense of the govern ment, and has adopted legislation to aid irrigation and dry farming. The law makes provision for the building of the following projects: Railways, from the coast to the Interior, to give egress for the products of the several regions, arl branch lines which make it feasible to extend the sphere of cultivation over large areas that is now possible; highways, to enable p.griculturists to have access to mar ket centers; dams, to provide reser voirs; wells, artesian or flowing, to aid In Irrigation projects; dikes along rivers which overflow during the rainy season, to serve In the most ef fective conservation of the water sup ply; lowlands along the coast to be drained, and land suitable for culti vation elsewhere adapted to that end In every way possible. A systematic and scientific study will be made of the meteorological, geological and topographical condi tions In the dry regions, and stations for the purpose will be established. Effort will be made to conserve the forest" resources, and reforestratlon will be undertaken where practicable. This measures Indicated are to bo carried out either by the federal gov ernment on Its own initiative, or with the aid and co-operation of the state governments. The federal govern ment will undertake to execute such of the projected work as is deemed to be most urgent, to the extent provid ed for by the budget low. In such of the projects as It may be deemed proper for the state to undertake, the union will give its support .by prof fering plans drawn up on the basis of a scientific study of tho needs of each region to be dealt with. The union will pay Into the treasury of the state a certain sum to be deter mined upon, according to the neces sities of the case, and the provisions of the appropriation legislation. In order to secure the help of the union, the state must make application to the government and show that cer tain of its territory is annually affect ed by extended periods of drought; I- must show that at least 5 per cent of the annual receipts of the state government Is devoted to the relief of the drought conditions, and that the appropriations made for that pur pose are not diverted to other chan nels. The regulations specify the dimen sions of the reservoirs to be built, pro viding for three grades of the .same. The largest is to have a capacity of 10 000,000 cubic meters (one cubic meter equals 1,3079 cubic yards), the medii. n capacity of 2,000.000 cubic metv;, and the small .a capacity of r00,(Kji) cubic meters. When It Is de termined to build the largest reser voirs lo meet the needs of the general situation, the federal government will let the contract to the lowest bid der though if there be necessity the work may be done by the government. Wells mav be sunk for the public account where the situation seems to demand It. but If it Is intended that generally such sources of water sup ply will be provided for private use, the landowner for whom a well is sunk paying only the actual cost of the labor necessary In sinking it. Thti Inmlnwner for whom such a well Is provided wU bo required to supply wuter for tne domestic use of his Im mediate neighbors, if necessary. Vienna. An Ingenious burglary has been committed in a fashionable Jeweler's shop here, the thiof having entered by a hole he had made in the ceiling while playing the flute. The floor above was let In lodgings, and the landlady Informed the police, when the burglary was discovered to day, that she had let a small room to a well-dressed young man, who played the flute all Sunday morning and nfternoon. In the evening he went out and did not return. A Jimmy and other burg lar's Implements were found In his luggage, and the man must have made the hole In the floor with one hand while he played the flute. In order to drown the noise, with the other. As he removed the boards and plas ter he hid them In his trunk, which was found full. He let himself down into the Bhop with a rope, which ha left hanging there, and collected $10,. 000 worth of rings, brooches and car-rings. mated fashion. When tho operator whlst'ed they would turn and repeat the promenade. When the furs had been photo graphed it was the turn of the equ ally attractive Indoor dresses, and, though tho ethereal materials wore hardly sufficient to keep out the cold, it was without enthusiasm that the girls relinquished the role of fine la dles and returned to work. OOLl'MHIA COl'NTY FARMERS HOLD WHEAT TO SPECULATE It is a dangerous thing to take a cough medicine containing opiates that merely stifle your cough Instead of curing It. Foley's Honey and Tar loosens and cures the cough and ex pels the poisonous germs, thus pre venting pneumonia and consumption. Refuse substitutes and take only the genuine Foley's Honey and Tar In the yellow package. Koeppen Bros. 1TAM AN CHILDREN SOLD INTO FRANCE AS SLAVES Rome. A terrible traffic in white slaves Is being fought by the Italian government. Offlrial Inquiry has re vealed the existence of a system un der which children are bought from poor people In the Italian country dis tricts and drafted Into southern France to work In the glass factorls.). Appalling conditions exist In theio plnces, where the children are fcub Jected to harsh treatment and down right slavery. The chi'.drrn are en tirely at the mercy of their captor, who usually bargain with the par ents for the servlres of the children for a term of years. The Italian minister of the Inter ior has now addressed a circular let ter to all the prefects of the kingdom drawing attention to the evil.

Masters of the situation as far as the selling of their grain is concerned, farmers of Columbia county, for the first lime on record, are playing a bold game and according to thr- estimate of H. P. Illdgley. local ;rrnt for a grain buying f.rm, one-fourth of this coun ty's 2.600.000 bushel grain crop Is be ing Jiclil in the hands of the growers purely for speculative purposes. Over 60 per cent of the crop Is stored now In the warehouses at shipping points because buyers and sh'ppera aro play ing the same game v.ith tho market. This Is done in the faco of the fact ! that local buyers are today offering $1.30 for barley mid $1 10 for blue stem wheat. Hhlfplng for everal weeks has been practically :it a standstill. That the coast dealers are looking for a drop In prices soon Is evidenced by the fact that they aro re fusing to stock heavily at present quotations and are d'-rnandlng scarce ly no grain from the Inland empire points.
