outside of the limits the new irame
. furniture factory beinir built by Ev
erett Trowbridcc on that corner,
which under tho old ordinance was in

much territory.

, . - Protest Against Factory
The remonstrance petition against
the council reestablishing the fire lim
its of the city so as to exclude the
furniture factory being built by Mr.
Trowbridge was presented to the
council bv Edward A. Evanston of
240 South Grape street, and the ma
jority of the signers were residents
from other sections of the citv. Dr.
Keene was the onlv councilman voting
.against the change, he takine the
stand that, the council should heed
the wishes of the people residing In
the neighborhood who deemed that a
factory building in their midst was
undesirable.
" However, a short time ago when
Mr. Trowbridge broached the subject
of erecting the factory building to
the couneilmen he was told to go
ahead with its construction as there
would probably be: no objection to
putting the location outside the fire
'limits, and that the ordinance would
be amended at last night's meeting.
Mr. Trowbridge then had the materials
hauled on the site and began the ex
cavation work. . - -
1 - The council not only amended the
ordinance last night to shorten the
' fire limits on the south a block so as
to exclude the Trowbridge factory.
but also made a general arrangement
of the fire limits, shortening tuem
greatly, in other directions.

Health Was Completely Shattered

The Red Cross Is not asking you
for money, it is merely asking you
for your old clothes, and during the
. drive, which begins March Z4th ana
continues until March 29th, every
man. woman and child In Medford
should look over his wardrobe and
send In to the Red Cross any old and
,llBcarded clothing which they may
have. If you have only one garment,
send It In anyway. The need is great
and the cry for help from all the suf-
ferlng countries In Europe should not
go unheeded. .,- The demand for cloth
ing, at the present time, Is even more
Imperative than the call for food In
these countries that are swarming
t with returned ref ugees--people with
out homes, people without' money or
means of making any.. ; The textile
.factories are wrecked and even If the
raw material were available. It will
be months before clothing can be
manufactured In these countries.
Garments of all kinds, for all ages
for ' both Bexes are required., . And
when the, drive begins next week let
us all be ready to help get together
eight tons of clothing, which Is Jack
son county's quota.
1 The clothing problem Is the moBt
serious yet faced and the Immediate
supply is absolutely vital to the
health and very life of the men, woni
on and children who have been freed
from tho German yoke. ,
"Just give me Tanlac and you may
have all the other medicines," said
Mrs. C. W. Christennen, residing at
1616 South 44th Street,. Tacoma
Washington.
: Those who have not seen me
since I began taking Tanlac," contln
ued Mrs. Chrlstensen, "would hardly
know me on first sight, I have under.
gone such a change. Why, do you
know I have actually gained thirty
six pounds. It hardly sounds reason
able, but It's the truth. I had suf
fered from nervousness and frequent
dizzy spells for seven years, and my
sleep was so broken, and I was so
tired that I hardly felt like getting
up In the mornings. My back felt
like it would break In two, it hurt me
so badly and my kidneys bothered mo
all the time. Everything I would eat
tasted bad and my stomach was so
upset that I could not eat more than
one meal a day, and that a very light
one. Besides all this, about eighteen
months ago, I was in an' automobile
accident, and have been almost a ner.
vous wreck ever since. I thought my
condition was bad enough, before,
but afterwards my health was com
pletely shattered. The pains In my
back were almost unbearable, my
stomach got worse and I was In
dreadful plight. I lost weight until
I got down to only ninety-eight
pounds was hardly more than
frame and was confined to my bed
for several weeks.
"Finally a friend of my husband
advised him to get me to try Tanlac
and my improvement commenced
with the first bottle. I have been
gaining in weight and strength ever
since until now, my troubles are not
only gone, but I feel-Just as strong
and well as I ever did. ;, I eat Just
anything and enjoy it. and nothing
hurts me a particle. .. My. nerves are
strong and steady and I sleep so wel
that I'm glad for night to come, and
getting up time comes too early for
me In the mornings. Tanlac has eer.
tainly brought health and happiness
to me and I can't say too much In Its
praise." - , '-
