Girls and women with sallow skins, liver spots, pimples or pallid complexion, also those who wako up with a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bil ious spells, acid stomach or constipa tion, should begin this phosphated hot water drinking and are assured of very pronounced results In one or two weeks. A quarter pound of limestone phos phate costs very little at the drug store, but is sufficient to demonstrate that just as soap ami hot water cleanses, purl flea and freshens the skin on the out side, so hot water and limestone phos phate act on the inside organs. We must always consider that internal sani tation is vastly more important than outsido ccnnllncss, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, whilo .the bowel pores do. Women who desire to enhance the beauty of their complexion should just try this for a week and notice results.- Adv.. . .

B.PENNINGTON. PHONE 217. . STANLEY STEVENSON. SOLD IN EUGENE MARKET GARDEEWER IS PRACTICAL IN TALK F. B. Chase Answers Many Questions Put by Gardeners at Junior High School. F. B. Chase, the well known market gardener, gave one of the most practioal talks upon gardening which - has been heard in Eugene in a long time. Mr. Chase began by advising people to plant the varieties of vegetables they wanted for their own use: not to plant what some one advised. Also to plant no more of any variety than would be used. If the family was to be awny from home during the vacation season the planting should be confined to vegetables which would be ready for use before leaving or not until after they came back. He strongly urged against trying to handle tho ground while it waa too wet in the spring and advised spading up the garden in tho fall and planting it with vetch for a winter dressing, turning it under in the spring. After his talk he answered a large number of questions as to details of cul ture and bow to economize space, fight pests, etc. W. S. Carpcntor, of the 0. A. C. ex tension department, who was present, stated that he considered it one ri the best talks of the kind which he ever heard.

Rutherford was unable to be present and hla talk upon drainage and beautlficatlon of school grounds will be given at some fu ture meeting. Baker Reviews (Continued from page one) mud, but the drivers by superhuman ef fort maintained their even plaee in (he line. It was an exhibition marking tha pass ing of the American army from purely a peace establishment to one of the world's real fighting forces. Baker Addresses Officers. After the review, Baker addressed the officers, aayina:: "You are at the point of the wedge, at the base of which America's entire power Is being applied, through the army." The officers 'passed in single file, shaking hands with their commander-in-chief. Baker asked every officer his name, it his superior wna not there to Introduce him or If the officer did not mention his name himself. A drisallng rain began during the re ception. Baker stood' through -it, bare headed and smiling. Addressing the first dlvleton of regu lars, who had been ia the front lines, Baker said: "If 1 havLanyadvtc to jive you, it's strike hard and shoot straight." The secretary lauded New . England troops, who had been in the trenches. He declared all the divisions, whether na tional guard, regulars or national army men, were all pant of the homogenious national force. Regulars Flrat to Arrive. . Baker pointed out that the flrat di vision of regulars was the first' to ar rive in France. He said the division was regular in name only" sixty per cent of its personnel being recruits, while the majority of its officers were reserves. "Tours waa the first experience in all the initial details of adjusting yourselves to new and strange conditions," he snid. "If sometimes the discipline seems wearying to you now, you must know you would have paid for its lack with your lives. "The better you're trained, the more valuable you are to your country as a fighter. "On every hand, I am told that you are prepared to fight to the end. I see this spirit in your faces. You may depend on us at home to stand by you, in a spirit worthy of yours. "From the day of my arrival in France I heard praise of the Mew England divis ion which made good in its Initial experi ence in the trenches, in a manner which guarantees it will be equal to all emer gencies. ' "The division - was trained -rapidly. Some of Its members probably descend ed from the minute men and from Ethan Allen's moutnaineers, whose fathers came to America before the revolutionary war. They have an opportunity to prove the quality of Americanism in the descend ants of the pilgrims. "After a long period of peace, com mercial success and comfort, some skep tics feared we had grown soft. "I shall send home a message from the men in France who have given np their cofortabls home life for the trenches, that we had not." - Standing on the plateau among the generals after the review, Baker's inevi table pipe appeared, a tin tobacco box flashed from hia pocket and he lighted up. Baker then called on a French general, who complimented the American troops on their appearance. Later the secretary and Pershing vis ited Joan of Arc's birthplace, passing from room to room in tow of an aged French woman, who acquainted them with the intimate history of the place. Earlier in the day, Baker had been photographed with Carlisle Babcock, a private in the marines. In civil life, back in Cleveland, the Babcocks and Bakers are great friends, Tht day's events terminated Baker's visit to the war section. Be departed to complete other phases of his trip.
