PRETTY GIRL &S MNKll
GETS MAS IX TUOCBLE
Captain of Mall Stoantcr ivrsla
Thmueivs to Put Ir. R M. steph.
enson in Iron
San Francisco. An unchaperoned
school girl, pretty and vivacious and
15 years of age. caused a feud aboard
the Pacific Mail steamer Persia that
nearly resulted in Dr. It. M. Steph
enson of Greenville, S. C, being plac
ed in irons and now threatens to
cause charges to bw brought against
Captain Andrew Lockett. master of
the vessel.
Details of the trouble, which has
as its- central figure Miss Ramona
McShane, a graduate of the Berkeley
high school, were made public by
passengers on the steamer upon its
arrival from the orient and later con
firmed by the principals in the affair.
According to Miss McShane, the
trouble started soon after -the Persia
left the orient, due. she says, to the
insistence of Captain Lockett in pay
ing her unsolicited attentions.
"Later I made the acquaintance of
Dr. Stephenson, whose wife had re
cently died," said Miss McShane. "He
was bringing his baby home and we
became very" good friends.
"Captain Lockett resented the at
tentions of Dr. Stephenson to me, and
finally called him into his cabin,
where a quarrel took place.
According to Dr. Stephenson, the
master of the vessel told him he
would have to quit strolling on the
deck with Miss McShane and accused
him of certain improper acts.
"I called in witnesses to prove the
injustice of these charges." he said.
"Several days later the captain
threatened to put me in irons if I did
not obey his commands."
Captain Lockett refused to discuss
the matter further than to say it was
all a Joke.
A heavy cold In the lungs that was
expected to cure itself has been the
starting point In many cases of dis
ease that ended fatally. The sensible
course Is to take frequent doses of
BALLARD'S HOREHOUND SYRUP.
It checks the progress of the disord
er and assists nature to restore nor
mal conditions. Price 25c, 50c and

Mr. Richard's Experience With Dif

Buttermilk for Three Years.
Cecilton, Md. Mr. George Richards,
Of this place, during the past 12 years,
has probably tried more different diets
than the average person would ever use
In a lifetime.
What he has to say about his experi
ments, must therefore be highly interest
ing to anyone suffering from indigestion
or stomach troubles of any kind.
He says: "For more than 12 years,
I suffered with stomach troubles, and
paid hundreds of dollars for doctor bills
and medicines. I was also operated on
for piles.
I lived on dried peaches and buttermilk
for nearly three years. The only thing
that would not give me pain was raw eggs.
1 was a physical wreck. 1 'could not
sleep, and was as near crazy as a man
could well be.
1 must say that after taking two 25-cenl
packages of Thedford's Black-Draught,
it did me more good than all 1 ever spent
for other medicines.
I have been working daily on the farm
ever since, and 1 am as hard as iron."
This purely vegetable remedy has been
in successful use for more than 70 years.

Resources,
Salem, Ore.. Feb. 7. Deploring the
bad effects which will be produced
in the middle western and eastern
states by publicity of a circular sent
cut by the Central Labor Council of
Portland, declaring that false adver
tisements have lured thousands of
men and women to the state, and up
on their arrival here they bave found
themselves without work and penni
less. Governor West with a view of
offsetting as much of this evil effect
as possible and bringing about a bet
ter understanding of the problem, Is
sued a statement, saying he will ad
dress communications to the council
and the Development Leagues of the
state, suggesting that a meeting be
held at Portland on February 13.
"If there is a lack of prosperity here
and there." says the governor, after
enumerating the resources of the
state, "and if there are men out of
employment and times are out of
joint, the fault lies not with the state
but with us.
"While there is much truth in the
circular recently sent by the Central
Labor Council, it might have been a
better policy and for the best Inter
ests of all concerned, had we gotten
together at an earlier date and
brought about a readjustment of these
matters here nt home and thereby
avoided giving them publicity abroad.
The primary purpose of the circular,
as I understand it, was to put a stop
to the coming of hordes of Jobless
and penniless men who are flocking
to our state and throwing themselves
into competition with labor already
here, and to emphasize the need of
men able, financially and otherwise,
to develop our resources and culti
vate our farms.
"We all agree that this is Just what
we need and want. We want a bal
ance between development and the
labor of development. We are striv
ing to solve the problem of how to
secure this balance. We want labor
ers, but first we want labor for their
hands. With a view of getting to
gether in this matter I am going to
ask such members of the labor or
ganizations and of development
leagues of this state as can find it con
venient to do so, to meet next Tues
day evening at the council chamber
or some other suitable place in Port
land, for the purpose of fully discuss
ing these great questions, so import
ant to the prosperity and growth of
the state, and touched upon in the
circular of the Central Labor Council
and try to arrive at a just and har
monious solution of the problem."

That's about nil there was to it
just a trifling hurt which to the or

But to the wor'.d-famed violinist- it
meant the loss of a concert.
It may mean the lo?s of two con

serious phase of the tcase is the fact
ihat for the first time in eleven years
he has been forced to cancel a con

The file was s'tarp, he pressed a
trifle too hard atd the point jabbed

than a pin prick and barring a slight
exclamation he paid no more atten

But the flesh under the nail be

PECULIAR AFTER EFFECTS
OF GRIP THIS YEAR
Ix-avcs Kidneys In Weakened Condi
tion. Doctors in an parts of the country
have been kept busy with the epi
demic of grip which has visited so
many homes. The symptoms of grip
this year are very distressing and
leave the system In a run down con
dition, particularly the kidneys,
which seem to suffer most, as every
victim complains of lame back and
urinary troubles which should not be
neglected, as these danger signals of
ten lead to more serious sickness, such
as dreaded Brlght's Dlseae. Local
druggists report a large sale on Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root which so many
people say soon hsals and strengthens
the kidneys after an attack of grip.
Swamp-Root is a great kidney, liver
and bladder remedy, and, being an
herbal compound, has a gentle heal
ing effect on the kidneys, whlcft al
most immediately noticed by those
who try it. Dr.-Kilmer & Co., Blng
hampton, N. Y., offer to Bend a sam
ple bottle of Swamp-Root, free by
mail, to every sufferer who requests
it. A trial will convince any one who
may be in need of It. Regular size
