The Silver Medal contest held at the Woodmen hall under the auspices of 1 the V. C. T. U. on Fridav eveuinir. April 27. was an intellectual feast for . the laree audience which rrtii tha to a' unt 25. The program was car ried out exactly as priuted, tha enter tainment beginning with a piano solo by Miss Winifred Flanagan. The Misses Lelia Caldwell aud Lulu Land furnished piano duets, which were duly appreciated. The vocal solos, duets and choruses were line, the words being sung distinctly so tha sentiment wag understood. Following is the program in fall: Piano aolo Winifred Flanagan Solo and Chorus "Betty aud the Bahy" By members of the Y'l Reoitatioo "An Old Woman's Complaint" Emma Longhridge Recitatiou "Result of Treating" Merle Caldwell Recitation "The Spauish Moth er" La Costa Mangom Solo "Just for Today" Nina haddock Recitation "The Last Hymn". . .

Nothing is more beautiful than a pure youug girt wuose lace is lit np with intelligence assisting in a right eous cause. The seven contestants were girls from the eighth grade. Each one did grandly and the recitations contained fine temperance sentimeuts both in regard to the ose of tobacco and alcoholics. It must have been bard for the judges to decide to whom the medal rightfully belonged, but it was awarded to Miss Gladys Archer, who recited "A Warning. " Miss Archer showed elocutionary talent in a marked deRtee. Rev. Clark Bower, one of the judges, presented the medal with a few well chosen remarks and also gave a pin with the monogram "M. C. " to each of the three girl as a memento from the uuiou. Though bat one can win the pri'.e the practice and knowl edge gained is beneficial enoogh to pay for all the work of lear -ling the recita tions. Much credit is due Mrs. Clem ents for the careful training given the girls for this eveut. It is but the be ginning of the work in this Hue by our local anion, hut we hope much may be accomplished in future contests, an other of which we expect to have be fore very long. Anyone wishing to enter should confer with Mrs. Sum mers, superintendent of this depart ment, or with Mrs. Clements. We now look forward with pleasant anticipa tion to the one to be given by the Y's in a few weeks and hope for a large at tendance. The Medal contest work is urged by the National W. C. T. U. as a means of educating pnblio sentiment in favor of temperance and against the liquor trafllo. Mrs. Aaelia E. Carman is the national superintendent. It is now recommended that Scriptural subjects maybe used with profit. And why not? It would not hurt any of us to know more of Biblical literature. The Union Signal of April 19 has an ar ticle on "The Value of Medal Con tests." It says, "Great reform is sues are won on the paltform of pub lic utterance. There publio senti ment is moulded and from that place, ia tarn, publio sentiment voices it self. When the coolest work is sys tematically begun and coutlomd, there are usually five series of con tests, each ooiupeting class consist ing of not lets than six or more than eight competitors; first a silver medal is competed for; then six win ners of silver medals compete for the gold medal ; six of these for the grand gold and six grand cold medalists for the diamond award. Miss Ellen D. Morris, sopt. of this work in Missouri in whioh state more than 4000 medals have been awarded writes, The medal contests have developed many yoang people into first class speakers, who wete before ignorant of their own latent talent. Numbers of young men who cast their first vote for prohibi tion were made converts through this influence.' Miss Coggeshall of In diana says 'I know of nothing that has been more benefioial to me men tally, morally and . physically than ! tbe odd test work.' Another .worker from Illinois gays, I 'The influence oa growth of cbarao iter is of Immeasurable value. It develops unselfishness and magoanlm- j ity of character every time you take a ! competitor by the hand aodcongratu-1 late him on his saocees." More coo Id I not be asked of any department than I j tho -r medal oooteel record ' show's ; ! talent inspirar, sentiment-purifier, I vote-maker." I Now that we have taken op tbe work ' . let tu do oor b:tt, leirirg :e:u!ts with the one who sees the end from the be ginning. MRS. L. W. HOOD, Press Snpt. I Vancouver, Wash., a town about the , size of Urants Pass, is finding its sa- loons a serious menace to its good or : der aud prosperity. The towu lias 29 ' saloons and though haviig three police I men, two for night aud one for day, barroom brawl and street fishts have ' become so numerons tnat the hni.tur class of citizens are demanding of the auinurmea mac me ponce lorce oe in creased at least two men, or that 1 he number of saloons be decreased. The condition has become so bad that the residence sections of the towu are be ing infested with drunken hoodlums aud a mounted policeman is asked for that women and girls may not be in danger when on the streets. If a saloon tended to make a town prosperous then Vauoouver should be one of the most prosperous towns in the Northwest for in has a saloon for every 172 men, women and children, or one saloon for every 85 male inhabitant over 21 years of age. Bnt Vanoouver finds that its big number of saloons are driving oat the better class of people and repelling desirable investors, caus ing taxes to be higher and injoring tbe general prosperity of the place. In the expectation of cotting the saloon down to a to isonable number it is pro posed to raise the license from f450 a year to 11000. Vancouver is a good object lesson to other towns in proof that the more saloons tbe more brawls and court expenses aud the more har den on the taxpayers and the less real prosperity to the town. FARMERS PATRONIZE MAIL ORDER HOUSES Po.y Out Much Ctxah Bui Not Al ways Save Money, la Their Experience. Mail order houses do a big business in Josephine county and their cata logue and price list book is in nearly every farm home and occupies a place of honor aud is the chief reference book of the household. And it is not in the poverty-stricken aud aueducated homes that this bargain book is alone Jouud, but it is largely in the possession of farmers who ars able to pay the cash for what they buy, that is they can pay cash on their mail orders even if they do sell their produce to the local merchaut and take it out in trad) and whenthe balance is in their favur take brass money and when it is against them have the account charged and pay at some future 'time at their con venience. When tbe bulk of the mail received at the average country poit office is mail order packages, and the express offices and freight depots show equally as large a percentage of this class of traffio it indicates that the far mers most profit some by this method of makiog their purchases. Before proceeding further on this theme the Courier will state that it will give space to articles bearing on this menane to local trade conditions from both farmers and from merohaots each to give their ideas on the subjeot. To resume the consideration of mail order purchases, it is a matter of faot that the farmers do not get a bargain la every purchase and thereby make their money go farther than it would if spent with the local merchant. Tbe following from the Bunker Hill, Illi nois, Gazette-News gives good argu ment in favor nf farmers patronizing their home merchants and reliable dealers : "C. E. Lee of Champaign, 111., spoke to the farmers of Macoupin coun ty at the Thursday morning session of the farmers' intsitote on dairying in terests. He dwelt at length on the ad visability of farmers baying cream sepirators, as they seoure at least a third more butter fat from the milk than by the old fashioned process of 'raising cream.' "He cited that Iowa baa nearly 60, 000 hand separators in ose, and that Illinois was fast following this pace, and said that if every butter maker in this state had a separator that prodoct would increase nearly a million dollars from the same amount of milk now 'pailed.' " Mr. Lee was asked tbe name of the separator he would advise the farmer to bay, and replied : " 'I am not at liberty to give pref erence, for I aou not selling separtora, if I were to name a separator mano-, factarer either to yoa here in pablie 1 or In private, 1 would lose my posi- j tioo, but there is one thing I desire i to warn yoa farmers against, and that j is of buying hand seperators from the mall order houses. Don't do It yoa will regret it. The machines do not give results, they do not last tbey fall all to picees. Our department receives hundreds of imiofrie as to 'What's the matter with my separator? it doetn't do this or that,' and I tell you, gentlemen, that in every instance when we ask them to name their separator it is a mail order house machine, and almost worthless when it waa new. ' "Mr. Lee spoke golden truths." It is the same with everything these house sell. I know a farmer who bought a v'-err Intrmer a'm'st a? che'p ti the i local hardware dealer soli the handle and he walked a mile into the field : to fix bis fence, and the first blow of ; the hammer split the steel to flinders. He seat for another hammer, and still another, and another, and when he had i purchased four different worthless ham- ( mers iu four different ord-rs, he went I to the local dealer aud bought one for i half a much as the four cost, aud he still has the hammer, and he tells me that when he began to lock into the other stuff he bought he fouud it all as worthless as the hammer. "Reader, take Mr. Lee's advice, Leave these mail order houses alone. Lee is a man who has nothing to gain by bis remarks. He is simply telling you what its big Experimental Station knows that is the reason the state sustains the station to help you aright. "So, buy your separators of reliable home stores boy everything of reli able home stores. " GOLDEN I V. W. Mcintosh of Grants Pass visited Golden on Sunday. A number of our youug people are planning to take in the big, new show in your city, May 4th. Mrs. E. E. filalock and daughter, and Miss Agnes Toban visited friends in Wolf Creek on Sunday. Mrs. O. C. Mcintosh leaves todav for Washington to visit an aged grand mother and other relatives. John Mitchell, a pioneer of Golden, is in very feeble healih, having been confined to bis bed for several months. Frank Griffin spent several days in oor borg the first of the week, bat has returned . to work at the Martha mine. B. C. Martin made a flying business trip to Merlin Saturday returning Sunday. He expects to start for Bly, Harney county, about the 10th. W. N. and S. C. Ruble recently re ceived the gold medal which was awarded them on their hvdraulio elevator at the Lewis aud Clark expo sition. A letter from F. A. Bates, formerly of Golden now residing in' Coquile, Coos county, reports that his son Ray is enjoying better health than for some mouths past. The miners of this vicinity are nearly through with this season's work. Some of them are exhibiting some fine specimens, ranging in size from A to $50. Mrs. F. C. Root is rapidly improv ing from her six weeks illness. This will be hailed with joy by her many friends, as she is one of the best Sun day school workers we have. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Hoxie and daughters Miss Vesta and little Marie went to Ashland last week on a trip of combined business and pleasure. We believe Mr. Hoxie iutunds to re main. J. H. Brodt, a wealthy mine owner of Trinity oounty, California, visi ted at the home of S. C. Ruble in the interest of flat placer mining. He was so muoh pleased with the modern elevator that he purchased the right to use it in his mine. Miss Massie entertained her pupils at an informal party at the home of U. Miller, Friday evening. Flinch, charades and home made candy were enjoyed. All report a "perfectly lovely" time. Dolly Gray. GUARANTEED BY ROTERMUND Simple Way to Cure Co.te.rrh by Hvomel Without Stomach D o i n a . It is the height of folly to dose the stomach with Internal medicines to care nasal catarrh. It cannot be cured exoept the catarrhal germs that are present in the nose, throat and lungs have first been killed. Direct local treatment by breathing Hyomei through the pocket inhaler that comes with every oatfit, is ab solutely necessary to kill the catarrhal germs and prevent their growth and formation. - The soothing air of Hyomei heals the smarting and raw membrane of the air passages in the nose, throat and lungs, kills off the catarrhal germs and rids the system of the last traces of catarrh. Tbe complete Hyomei outfit consists of a hard rubber inhaler which oan be carried in the parse or vest pocket, a niediclue dropper, and a bottle of Hyomei, and costs only 1, while ex tra bottles can be obtained for 60 cents,' thus making it the most economical treatment for the core of catarrh, as well as the most reliable.' Rotermund positively guarantees a cure when Hyomei is used in ac cordance with tbe simple directions on the package, or he will refund the money. This certainly shows his faith and belief 'in the. virtues of Hyomei, ' 30 per cent discount on violins, guitars, banjos and mandolins daring Mar:h Moslo Store.
