Here the road Joins the Eight Mile mar ket road, which is wash-boardy at present Mr. Norris believes on rough es timation that $40,000 will put the Rock creek section In shape. The Bureau or Public Roads expended B5,uoo for the 5.2 mile stretch in eluding engineering costs and $1400 for drift fence. The 4.4 miles now being made will cost $160,000 of bu reau money, It being the heaviest construction on the entire route, Money is now available for sur facing the 5.2 mile stretch, and it is probable this work will be done in the spring, and the 4.4 miles along with it as It would be more econ omical to let the whole Job In one contract In addition to its money expend ed on the road, which, when pre sent contracts are completed, will exceed $400,000, the forest people are contemplating the construction of a public park near Wilson pass, similar to Blue Mountain park be tween Spray and Fossil on the John Day highway.

"Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came forth out of the midst of the fire nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them." Dan iel 3:26-27. Out of the fiery furnace into which these young men were cast for the sake of their testimony for God, has come one of the world's richest legacies of heroic faith, he roic courage, and heroic sacrifice. Many of the world's greatest blessings and heritages have come out of the fiery furnace of trial and affliction. ' . Pascal, the great writer and preacher, never knew what it was to have a day without pain after he was eighteen years of age. Richard Baxter wrote "Saint's Everlasting Rest" while he walked in the furnace of suffering. Pasteur, who discovered the cure for rabbies, lived twenty-seven years after a paralytic stroke, and did the very' best work of his life in this period. Prescott, the historian, lost the sight of one eye, and, though he could scarcely see out of the other eye, he went through more than a hundred volumes of musty litera ture to get his facts. Lord Nelson, in his early life was a weakling, and thru all his life was handicapped by physical in firmity. Milton's "Paradise Lost" was born in the furnace of affliction. Fanny Crosby's six thousand hymns came singing out of the furnace. Most of the things that are good came out of furnaces some sort of suffering that makes men and wo men strong and courageous and self-sacrificing. The furnace often proves to be our best chance to become some thing and do something, worth while. If you have not a church home, we very cordially Invite you to come and worship with us.

V r due to Acid ACID STOMACH wnen BAIN .omes I THAT many people call imHgcs W tion very often means excess acid in the stomach. The stomach nerves have been over-stimulated, and food sours. The corrective is an alkali, which neutralizes the acids instantly. And the best alkali known to medical science is Phillips Milk af Magnesia. One spoonfu of this harmless, tasteless alkali in water neutralizes instantly many times that much acid, and the symptoms 'disappear at once. You will never use crude methods when once you learn the efficiency of this. Go get a small bottle to try.
