When pipes begin to
leak and the bathroom
floor is flooded,". look" out
for a fall in the ceiling
below. All small leaks
become Niagaras if neg
lected, and it costs lots
of money to Repair a
ceiling. The surest way
to avoid a Plumber's
bill is either to put in
the best plumbing at the
start, or to watch out
for possible leaks and
rusty joints. WE are
expert Plumbers, use
only the best materials,
the best workmanship,
and guarantee all work
done. THINK AHEAD!
If you have plumbing
that you want done in
the cheapest manner do
not come to us. We
don't do that kind of
work; but , if f you have
Plumbing that you want
done in a first-class man
ner, Plumbing that's
fully Guaranteed, 1 better
see us. That's the kind
of work we want and
our price will be as cheap
as that kind of work can
be done.

TOLK'S RllsV gaumiiic
Editor Cornwall Tells What He Sees
Along Dallas and Falls City
Railroad.
George M. Cornwall, editor of The
imberman. recentlv mnri
Ti
oyer the line of the Dallas and Falls
City railroad, and his observations
are given in the May number of his
publication, as follows :
The Voget Lumber Company, of
Falls City, are cutting about 25,000
feet daily, their cut being handled by
the Falls City Lumber Company.
O. ilarhart purchased the Oberer
Meyer sawmill at Black Rock, in rolk
County, at receivers' sale, April 29.
The capacity of the plant will be en
larged. The Dallas Planing Mill, Dallas,
presided over by Frank J. Coad, re
ports running steadily on local busi
ness. Thoy may conclude to install a
12-inch Inside moulder later in the
season.
Captain W. E. Newsbm, Rainier,
Oregon, contemplates Installing an
electric light plant at Falls City, and
will probably also install a small mill
tocut lumber for bis intended improve
ments. The Captain has purchased
the water power at Falls City.
The Dallas Lumber Company has
added two additional engines to their
camp on the LaCreole Creek. The
mill is cutting about 40,000 feet daily.
This mill has about 250 to 300 million
feet tributary to the mill and Is able
to use the LaCreole Creek very eco
nomically to float their logs.
The Willamette Valley Lumber
Company, of Dallas, under the man
agement of George T. Gerlinger, looks
prosperous. The mill is cutting about
90,000 feet daily, but complains In
common with other mills, about the
scarcity of cars. Anew sawdust bin
and a new office are some of the latest
additions to this plant.
The Polk County Mill & Lumber
Company, of Black Bock, are cutting
about 30,000 feet every day. The tim
ber at this mill is fine, soft yellow fir,
and is being converted into ties and
railroad timber. This concern also
cuts alder and maple. The company
has recently installed a Washington
Iron Works engine in their camp.
The George W. Cone Lumber Com
pany, of Black Rock, is advantage
ously located in a good body of tim
ber, and is making a specialty of
railroad material. The mill is cutting
about 60,000 to 60,000 feet daily. The
output goes largely to the Southern
Pacific Railroad. Mr. Cone has built
a very smart mill, well designed for
the business, and is making a success
of his enterprise.
The Charles K. Spaulding Logging
Company, of Newberg, are the owners
of about 175,000,000 feet of choice
stum page on the Salem, Falls City&
Western Railroad, This body joins a
tract of 700,000,000 feet owned by this
company on the Luckiamute River.
The company is operating a logging
camp on the S. F. C. & W., and are
hauling their logs to Newberg. a dis-
tance of 38 miles.
Salem, Falls City & Western Rail
road has recently added twenty-four
new forty-one-foot cars of 70,000
pounds capacity and three box cars to
its equipment, giving it a total of sixty-
two cars, two geared and three direct
locomotives. A modern machine shop
equipped with the most modern tools
is being installed. The car repairing
and rebuilding shop is well equipped
and admirably fitted for the purpose.
The physical condition of the roadbed
is excellent An extension is now
projected into the Siletz basin. The
road is under the management of
Louis Gerlinger, Jr., who is certainly
entitled to a great deal of credit for
the manner in which he has bandied
his road. There are longer roads
than the Salem, Falls City & Western,
but none are better managed.
The Falls City Lumber Company, of
Falls City, is operating two mills, the
capacity of mill No. 1 being 80,000 feet
daily, and the capacity of mill No. 2,
40,000 feet daily. This company is
installing three 66x16 Doners, whu
Dutch oven settings, and a pair of
ifi22 H. S. & G. engines. The con
tract for the installation of the power
plant was awarded to the Zimmerman-Wells-Brown
Company. In the plSn-
ing mill a Berlin resaw ana jiamouu
Iron Works horizontal resaw, have
been Installed. A sorting table to
take the lumber from the flume, and a
40-foot trimmer will also form pan oi
the new improvements. It is the Inten
tion to dismantle the planing mill now
located at the present terminus of the
flmfrnm mill No. 1. and connect
this flame with the planing mill of
mill No. 2. By this means u win cou
centrate the product and save labor.

Benefit For Dallas Free Library Will
Be Given on Thursday
Evening.
The big Public Library benefit will
be held on Thursday evening of this
week. Everything is progressing well
for the play. Miss Georgia Martin
will take Mrs. Louis Gerllnger's place
in the cast and will act 'well the part
of Violet Drew. George Bennett takes
the part of Violet's father, and the
transformation will be yery great
from his first appearance on the stage
as an entertaining monologist to that
of an elderly and exacting parent.
Miss Frankie Hayter will cany every
thing before her as the vivacious,
stage-struck little housemaid. Henry
Williams does some admirable work
as the villain, and Dr. Toney is clever
in the part of the coachman. Miss
Naana Forbes makes a delightful and
manageable chaperone, and George
Gerlinger acts well the lover's part. ,
The many real music lovers In
Dallas will be delighted with Miss
Watson's beautiful voice, and the
management of the entertainment
feels very grateful to this talented
singer for so generously making the
journey to Dallas to sing. Mrs.
Gilbert MacGregor will be her
accompanist
George Bennett has all sorts or
pleasant surprises up his sleeve for
the audience to laugh over. He has
been warned to be ready with plenty
of material for encores, because
wherever he has appeared he has had
difficulty In getting off the stage, so
clamorous were his hearers for more
jokes and original stunts.
Tickets are on sale at iieii iner
rlngton's drug store and also at the
T,lhrarv. They should all ga like hot
cakes, and there should not be a
vacant seat in the house. Everyone
will get full value for their money,
and besides will be helping support
the one institution in Dallas which Is
for the benefit of everyone ana gives
H ndvnntaffes freely to alL Buy your
seats early and be on hand to enjoy
one of the most delightful entertain
ments ever given In this city, ine
people of Dallas have long been noted
for their generous support of home
oiont nrnductions. and when the
entertainment is given for so worthy
a cause as the Free Library mere
should be an attendance that will
leave standing room at a premium.
Don't forget the date.
It's too bad to see people who go
from day to day suffering from phys
ical weakness when Hollister's Rocky
ir .M!n Ton would make them well.

COUNTY, OREGON,
RESPONDS TO OSTEOPATHY
Case of Spinal Meningitis Cured By
New Treatment in Oiympia,
Washington.
OLYMPIA. Washington. Special.
Jesse Fitzaimmons, son of Mrs. Mary
Fitzslmmons, Is the second reported
case of spinal meningitis here, and is
in a critical condition. Marie Stranan,
the first case, is convalescing, haviug
respouded to osteopathic treatment.
Oregonian.
Dr. C. A. Campbell, the osteopathic
physician, who recently located In
Dallas to practice his profession, says
that cases of the dread disease, which
is prevalent in many of the Coast cit
ies, have been cured by osteopathy
where medicine utterly failed to kill
the germ. Describing the nature of
the disease, he said :
"Without going Into technical de
tail, It might be stated In a general
way that in all cases of Inflammation
of whatever kind there Is, first, irrita
tion of some kind ; then congestion, or
rush of blood to the part irritated;
then inflammation proper, with local
or general fever. In a case of menin
gitis, which is an inflammation of the
meninges or membranes covering the
spinal cord and brain, there is, first,
Irritation from Invasion of the part by
the germ, diplococcus intracellulars;
then, rush of blood to the point of
Irritation to overcome the damage
done by the Invading germs. Inflam
mation results, and as long- as the
congestion is kept up there is little
prospect of a subsidence of the inflam
mation. The inflammation in this
area, along the spine, causes irritation
of the nerves controlling the muscles
of the back, both behind and in front
of the backbone, causing the muscles
to tighten and draw the joints of the
spine closer together, bringing
pressure on the veins which drain the
spinal cord and meninges of the
used blood damming up the blood
so that it cannot get out as fast as it
gets in via the arteries. This causes
more poison to accumulate in the
Stagnant blood, which more auu more
irritates the nerves, causing the mus
cles controlled by them to clamp down
tighter and tighter upon the blood
vessels, and the viscious circle is kept
up til death or common sense comes
to the relief.
"The best that can be done is to
assist Nature to hurry this poison
laden blbod to the excretory organs,
the lungs, kidneys and bowels, In
order that the system may be relieved
of the poison as soon as possible. The
common sense thing to do, then,
would seem to be to relax the tensed
muscles along the spine; to stretch
the spine and separate its joints to as
nearly normal position as possible In
short, to remove every obstruction
possible from the circulation, as this
is the only thing that can cure free
circulation, Nature. This the osteopath
endeavors to do to remove obstruction
to the free flow of blood and nervous
energy ; to take off as many handicaps
as he can from the overburdened sys
tem ; to give Nature the best possible
chance, by softening up the hardened
muscles, stretching and limbering up
the stiffened spine, and stimulating
the excretory organs In a natural way
to assist In getting rid of the load of
poisons which are causing the fever
and other symptoms."
