Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Led Her To Try It Kenosha. Wisconsin. "I cannot any enough in praise of Lydia E. Pinkham a v c K e oa d i e com pound. My mother bad great faith in it as she had taken so much of it and when II had trouble after my baby was born Islie gave it to me. I It helped me so much more than anything; else had done that 1 advise all women with female trouble J to trive it a fair trial and I am sure they will foci as I do about it Mrs. Fkkd. P. Hansen, 662 Bymmonds St, Kenosha, Wisconsin. A modicino that haB been in use nearly fifty years and that receives the praise and commendation of mothers and grandmothers is worth your considera tion. If you are suffering from troubles that sometimes follow child-birth bear in mind that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound is a woman's medicine. It is especially adapted to correct such troubles. The letters we publish ought to con vince you ; ask somo of your women friends or neighbors they know its worth. You will, too, if you give it a fair trial. 111 3S: ' i 1 HI' 7 ICA1E 10 DEVELOP OIL SHALE IN VALLEY II. W. Hartman, president, and W. A. Pcttigrew, chief engineer, of the Hartman Syndicate of the Pacific Coast, have boon making exhaustive examinations of the shale deposits ly ing In the hills or tho Rogue River valley. After three months of explora tion work they state that thero is vast wealth Btorcd up here; tills conclusion is based on the fact that after months of work opening up the deposits, by means of "open cuts," an Immense ton nage is uncovered of high grade rock. From tests made of this shale It runs high in oil and gas and the analysis of the oils prove that it is a very rich quality. The gas obtained from the shale will, It is Bald by the company repre sentatives, ,bo. utilized for operating the plants and tho large surplus will he piped to towns In the valley and will be at tho disposal of tho people for domestic and industrial purposes. Such an industry, the officials of the company declare, means a great boon to this valley In more ways than one. It will create a large payroll, stimulate trade generally and undoubtedly will bring a number of new residents into southern Oregon. During the last three weeks Mr. Dynning, tho company's state engineer has had a survey party out locating a permunent road Into tho holdings of the ilurtman Syndicate, and Mr. Pctti grew states that as Boon as the permit is granted for the construction of the road, clearing operations will he com menced nnd a steam shovel will be put on the ground to do the necessary ex cavating and grading. Mr. Hartman Is leaving for Seattle In the immediate future to purchase pipe for conveying tho crude oil from the plants, which will ho located about ten miles from Ashland, to their refin ery that is to he erected near tho railroad. ThlB company has opened offices at 29 rlrst street, Ashland.

Will H. Wilson. 121 , Frank C. Clark, architect, was called south last night to Pasadena by the death of his mother, Mrs. P. A. Clark. She seemed to be improving and Mr. Clark had just returned from there, but a telegram last night brought the news of his mother's death. His office will be closed until his return some time next week. Frank Blessing of the U. S. Marine corps, is here visiting his mother, Mrs. Gertrude Blessing, 412 South New town. Mr. Blessing has been aboard the Oklahoma which has been cruising in southern Asia and China. His fur lough is for a few days only.' R. Ft. STRIKE EXTENDING (Continued from page one) without not only violating their own promiseB but flatly compromising the supervisory employing officers to whom they gave authority and instruc tions to make promises. "Under the second plan proposed by the president the entire system of seni ority would be nullified. The employes are to meet Friday to consider it. Frankly however, the proposition to give men who stayed at work, or have gone to work during the strike an op portunity to have their rights deter mined by the board is a very different tiling from the proposition that regard loss of all the promises that have been held out to them in order to keep the railways running, though their rights shall be arbitrarily set aside without any hearing whatever." t Hunting Season May Be Postponed F, A. Elliott, state forester, has an nounced that if dry wonthor continues Hie hunting season, scheduled to open August 20, may bo necessarily post poned as a precaution against forest fires. Past records clearly indicate that many fires tiro started by caroless hunters. Governor Olcott will by proclamation postpone tho season if conditions appear to warrant such a move. Meeting Tomorrow WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. President Harding probably will receive Monday or Tuesday of next week the formal answer of the rail shop crafts federa tion to his proposal that the seniority dispute be left to the railroad labor board for docision. B. M. Jewell, spokesman for the shopmon's unions, reitoruted that the general conference of railroad labor organization heads on Friday would be consulted nnd Indicated that it might take BeveriU dayB to get the communi cation to the president Into shape. Nothing has come to light to indlcato that the administration has a definite program prepared to present to con gress should tho president's latest ef fort at mediation in the rail strike situ ation prove unavailing. Indications are, according to house leaders, that tho president believes it wise to have congress standing by ready to take a hnnd nt any time It may become neces sary and that this prompted his re quest that plans for three day recess of the house after it reconvenes next Tuesday be abandoned.

Military con trol is continuing in Portugal where martial law was declared recently because of a general strike and fear of serious disorders, according to re ports from Lisbon today. A number of bomb outrages occurred Tuesday. Steel Orders Increase NlSW YORK, Aug. 10: The monthly tonnage re tort of the United States Steel company, made public today phowed 6,776,161 tons of unfilled orders on hand duly 31. This Is an In crease of 140,630 tons over June's un filled orders whicn totalled 5,635,510. another has let his arrears grow, in a . philosophical contemplation !' them as an inevitable necessity that need not cause him to lie awake nights. "The members of the supreme court have become so anxious to avoid another sensation like that of the decade before 1891 that they have deemed it proper themselves to pre pare a new bill extending the juris diction of the supreme court and to urge its passage. It is now pending in both houses of congress. The act of 1891 introduced into the appelate system a discretionary jurisdiction of the supreme court over certain issues of Stocks. "By the act of 1915thls discretion ary power of the court was extended and its obligatory, jurisdiction . re duced, as to review of stato1 court judgment, so that now the only question which was given by writ of error from a state court to the su preme court as a matter of right, are those in which the validity of a state statute or authority, or of a federal statute or authority under the consti tution has been the subject of con sideration by the state court and has been sustained in the former or de nied in the latter case. All constitu tional questions arising in the fede ral courts in the district courts or the circuit court of appeals may. under existing law, bo brought to the su preme court as of right. Increase Jurisdiction. "The new bill increases the discre tionary appellate jurisdiction now vested in the supreme court so that no case of any kind can be taken from the circuit court of appeals to the supreme court of the United States without application for a ccr tlerarl. Obligatory appeals from all other courts subordinate to the su preme court of the United States ex cept state courts are also abolished and only review by certeorari is pro vided. This Includes the court of ap peals of the District of Columbia and the court of claims, as? well as the territorial courts. . Direct appeals from the district courts to the su preme court in jurisdictional and constitutional questions are abolish ed and such questions are to reach the supreme court only through tho circuit court of appeals. These changes, it is thought, will give the supreme court such control over the business that it can catch up with its docket. Urge Law Clianircs, "What I would suggest is that con gress provide for a commission to be appointed by the president of the two supreme court justices, two circuit rourt judKcH. '.. diKUi. t judge and three lawvt-rs -f pruminome from a list recommended by the American Bur association, . to prepare and recommend to congress amendments to the present statutes of practice and the judicial code authorizing a unit administration of law and equity in ono form of civil action. The act should provide for a permanent com mission similarly created, with power to prepare a system of rules of pro ceedure for adoption by the supreme court. Power to amend from time to time should also be given. The rules after their apprnvnt by the court. should be submitted to eoiigresu its action, but should become r.ff.. live in six months if congress laktg no action. In this way the pro ceedure would be framed by tho most familiar with it and by tho whose duty it is to enforce it. Tlle advantage of experiment in the labo. ratory of the pourt would furnish valuable suggestions for bettering tht system. The important feature 0f such a system is that needed action by the commission and the court win be properly taken and the neeesar I delay in a congress crowded with 1 business may be avoided."

"A bill which provides for 24 new district judges and one circuit judge In the fourth circuit has been report ed to both houses," he continued. "It is offered nnd will doubtless lead to discussion: but In view of the pre vious votes In the two houses, it seems likely that tho bill will pass before tho close of this congress. "Tho new bill authorizes a judicial council of ten Judges, consisting of tho chief justice and the senior asso- , cinte Judge of each circuit which is to t moot in "Washington the last Monday . in September, to consider reports from such district Judge with a de ' soriptlon of the character of the ar rears, nnd a recommendation as to . tho extra Judicial forco needed In his I district.
