On the Union Pacific now, one of the greatest railroads in the world the HEART of the American railroad g y g t e m. MoBt of the passengers and freight from one coast of this country to the other, pass over the double tracks of the U. P.- connecting with various other lines at Ogdcn and at Omaha.' A gold mine in the past, but suf fering with all other railroads now, in epite of a tremendous cash reserve. No doubt it will be a gold mine again. For one can't cross this country and not have absolute faith in its pow ers of resuscitation. There are 12 Pullmans, a club car and a diner on this train All the Pullmans are comfort ably filled. Something like $2200 in Pullman fares alone. Doesn't look much like a de pression. The round trip Pull man fare from Medford to Chi cago is within $30 of the pres ent round trip railroad fare. Something wrong there 1 War prices for Pullmans and war prices in the diners. If they made expenses in 1029, they must be coining money now. Well, probably we shouldn't begrudge the railroads making money in SOME directions. Heaven knows they are losing enough in others. A cross-country railroad trip is always interesting. People of contrasting, types and from various parts of the world, gather together for three days, in a house on wheels, and dis play various traits of complex human nature. There Is a Ko rean potentate aboard, he looks like an Oriental doll not much larger than the ex pansive Panama he wears. His wife is young and pretty, with a gorgeous mop of frirzy black hair, and , with their state room door open she often strums a ukelele. One specu lates about 'them who they are, where they are going, what is their history as one specu lates about many others. Awakened early this morn ing just before we reached Cheyenne, by a commotion across the aisle. At the sum mit, 8000 feet, a couple from San Jose on their first trip east in 25 years, had simultaneously suffered hoart attacks. The porter was scurrying about and a young naval officer en route to Washington rushed first aid with a huge silver whiskey flask. Fully expected a double obituary, from all the noise and gasping, but the man was in the dressing room sucking an orange, when we got there. "Thought I was going to die sure" said he, "couldn't get my breath, but the admiral fixed me up and Rosey, too. OK now,", and the man from Snn Jose unlimbered his safety razor. "That hooch will cure any thing," said the "admiral" proudly. It apparently cured a weak hear, for half an hour later we saw the man from San Jose eating French pancakes and maple syrup in the diner. Rosey, however, stayed in her berth and we heard her de clare plaintively their return tickets over the Canadian Pa cific would HAVE to be changed "for we go up 12,000 feet there. It would kill us both." After such an emotional shock the man from San Jose became intimately communica tive, on the observation car platform s "Haven't left San Jose in 25 years. But this year made more money than ever before. I believe in spending it while 1 can. Not like one of my clients who took $25,000 in cash out of the bank and put it in a safety deposit box. That's bad. Bad oj her; aud everyone else, I never advise my clients to do that, but some of 'em do." "CLIENTS!" The man must be a lawyer. He wore nose glasses on a broad black ribbon, but there was no other evidence of legal training. In fact his treatment of the king's English was scandalous. Also he wore very loud and cheap -sport shoes and rolled his own cigarets. The mystery was later ex plainid. The man from San Jose is a pawn broker I No wonder he had a good year and many "CLIENTS." Thanks to the early morning rising met the Korean poten tate also on the rear platform. Immaculately attired in linen suit, under the expansive Pan ama binders don't bother him big as a minute) delicate features, just the suggestion of a mustache a face as expres sionless as an idol. He too became communica tive. Talks perfect English, graduate of Cornell, en route to Washington, he surveyed the passing farm houses and green fields everything is green and remarked in part as fol lows : "You Americans are so spoil ed. All one hears is depression and your farmers are so badly off but look at them. In the Far East when crops fail, the farmers DIE, See the corn, alfalfa, horses, cows and com fortable houses. See that man at the gate he doesn't look hungry. There's a car in the shed. He can press a button and go to town for salt and sugar. He can kill a pig and have meat for a month. He isn't in rags, neither he nor his children are staggering from hungor and fatigue. A native with a horse and a pig is rich in my country. And with all that you say your farmera are poor and your country ruined. Tou don't know what bad times are." True enough. .But perhaps that farmer owes money, has a mortgage, due, will lose his place. What thent The little man smiled, and shook his head. "What thent I lived five years in this country. No one starves here. Look at the Red Cross, your thousands of charitnble institutions. Have you ever been in China, in Korea, even Japan, during a orop failure t Not Do it some time." The little man produced a oigaret, put it in a holder, as big as himself (ALMOST) and pressed a pocket lighter. R. W. R. Jenkins' Comment (Continued from Page On ) such as Paradise Way, Rainbow's End Way, and such. This Is surs getting to be a devil of a country for the old-fashioned male eltlsen with tobacco stains on his whiskers. STILL, you can't crush all the prim itive lnaln,t nL r Mnnla - Seeking to get closer back to nature, the young bucks up this way have taken to leaving off their shirts and going about naked from the waist up. When they gather around In the evenlnga to be gaeed at by the wom en whose husbanda are at home Slav- lng all day to make a living and having a almply devilish time at night with their pretty stenographers. It looks like a council of the tribe In old Paulina's day. The Idea, of course. Is to acquire a ripe, rich tan with which to awagger around after they get back home, and If thla crar for tan continues one may expect by next year to see them going around In breech e'oths, and by the year after that they will be down to gee-string. There are plenty of ways to be hellish, even In thla devitalised age. Rattlers Silent In Fern Valley PERN VALLBT. July SO.

New low prices at Pegile'i Beauty aaxlor, Phone i7, Today By Arthur Brisbane The Washington Riots, Surprise For Joe Angelo Women Have Courage, " Some Russian Shooting. Copyright King Pastures Synd., Inc. Washington News, describ ing American soldiers using force, and tear gas to drive vet erans of the World war, from their encampments at the capi tol, is disquieting. No one will suggest that (he country's laws should b'e ig nored, or set aside, even for men that have fought for their country. But all wish that a difficult situation might have been han dled more satisfactorily, on both sides. Curious things happen in war, and in peace that follows. You have heard of Joe Angelo, of Camden, N. J., in the big war. Joe Angelo was aid to Major George 0. Patton, in charge of light tanks. One night of a patrol, Patton was badly wounded by a shell fragment. Angelo dragged him to safety in a shell hole, stayed with him all night. Angelo was decorated for his cour age, but learned that there la little nourishment In decorations. He was In Washington, looking for a Job or payment of hla bonus, and It became the duty of Major Patton, now In the United States cavalry, to drlvs Joe Angelo with other veterans, out of their Washington quarters in Camp Marks. Calling out the army, to bum the camps of the "bonua army" and drive the veterans out with cavalry, ma ohlne guns, Infsntry, tanks and gas attacks, will supply what Is called "extreme radicalism" with texts, for many a day. Calling out the army has happened rarely In Washington. . It occurred during the "whisky Rebellion"" in 1794. and can happen, hereafter only by direct order of the president. Thick-necked men and the conceit ed kind, with thin necks, used to say women must not vote, because they lack the courage of us men " They vote now and every day, prove that they have more courage than "ua men." Your realize it, when you read about Miss Earhart, crossing the At lantic alone, or the two lady pilots, Mrs. Marcells of Centervllle, Mtas., and Miss Phaden of Baltimore, going up to beat the women's non-stop fly ing mark of 130 hours. Women's real every day courage Is not recognized. Yesterday, In the thick traffic of Lafayette street, New York, a middle aged women, sailed along, dodging heavy trucks and big fast cars, alt ting In a little "bath tub" aide car, of a three wheeled motorcycle. A boy of sixteen drove It, another younger boy sat back of his brother, talking to his grandmother. She pointed out the interesting sights and queer people, waved her arms, turned her head, skimming at high speed within a few Inches of truck weehls. The boys had said "It is perfectly safe, Grandma," and for her, It was perfectly safe. You, proud man, would not have taken her place for the real estate that she passed on her swift career, If all the great companies In America had lnaured you. But her grandsons had said It was safe, and ao, It was safe. She wore black silk, and an old-faahtoned hata May ahe live long, to defy the Fatea. Americans hove been assured that Russia has no respect for womea, their rights, or the sacred msrriage tie, but certain young Russian hood lums have not found It so. Following mistreatment of a young girl, tour of them have ben ahot, eight aent to Jail for long terms, and no protests, or weeping could save them. Former King Manuel, kicked out of Portugal by subjects tired of mon archy, goea back to be burled there, carried on a ship with the Portuguese flag at half-mast.

Fl'BTIIEB COLON The fundamental or underlying trouble with a lot of people who Buf fer with apastlo constipation, mucous colic, oolttu or gome similar complaint Is they know so many things about the p h y s iology and hygiene of the alimentary tract which ain't so. The nostrum peo ple, quacks and fad or cult heal ers as well as we orthodox medical practitioners, have taught them these things, and are still teaching the same line of ho kum. ' In the antecedent talk about colon physiology we pointed out a fact that Is seldom considered, namely, that the contents of the lower colon of man and Indeed of all mammals In health. Is dry( solid, formed tn masses or lumps. It is a common mistake to strive to keep the colon contents liquid or fluid by means of cathar tics, freak diets, bowel washes and the like. It may be a matter of Interest, though It has no particular hygienic importance, that from one-fourth to one-third of the weight of the normal contents of the lower colon In mam malia Is composed of the bodies of bacteria, dead and alive. These bac teria are not 6nly harmless but prob ably beneficial to the host. What does matter, and hence should be known by everybody, Is that these germs naturally present In the In testine serve to disintegrate the food residue, splitting up gases and acids Into products which are the nat ural excltora or stimuli of Intestinal paristalsls or propulsion of the con tents.' That's a lot for the layman to learn In a day, particularly when his head Is already stuffed with the old hokum above mentioned. But the gist of it ought to be easy to under stand and good to know; Ordinarily your own colony of colon microbes, If not Interfered with this Is the IMPORTANT part of It If not inter fered with the bacteria naturally present In the Intestine aid digestion and help to keep you comfortable and well. Here la a little lesson which may be difficult to learn, due to obfuscatlor! of the subject by the purveyors of sour milk nostrums. I hope It will help the bewildered layman to see more clearly when I say that the propaganda of the lactlo vendors has been ten times aa grert an Influence upon popular knowledge of colon hy giene as the various Bulgarian or Acidophilus preparations have had on the flora and fauna of the Intestinal tract. That's the end of the lesson for ten-thousand Frenchmen, "almost hysterical In their delight when their champion won." French, men and women, can play tennis, or anything else that de mands great nervous energy. Leng len, Borotra, Cochet, all prove It But If the California boy, Vines, keeps hla health, and continues to Improve, he will be the world cham pion in a year or two, as Helen Wills Moody of California, is woman cham pion today, Chicago's Judge Trude, by Implica tion, approves birth control, and Is first with a Judicial decision to that ef'ect. He made a husband pay his wife separate maintenance. She did not want any more children, and the Judge agreed with her that the exist ing number, five waa too many. This would interest the mothers of Napoleon, Marconi and Caruso, whose families numbered from about a dozen to nineteen. (Continued front Page One) num waa a "neat housekeeper:" con ducted herself as a lady at tell times; and was an Ideal mother, In the care of a minor child whose custody she seeks. Evidence was also produced In an effort to show that Barn urn was of a surly and quarrelsome tempera ment, staged "parties" and took trips with other women, waa "close" with money and failed to provide for his family. Witnesses testified to a number of Incidents of family life, including the charge that ,he drove gxieats away from his home by flour ishing a pistol. Witnesses for the plaintiff for the moat part were kin and women friends. The case will probably be conclud ed for consideration of the court by Wednesday. The plaintiff la repre sented by Attorney Charles W. Reames, and the defense by Attorney A. B. Reames. Mrs. Barnum In her complaint, seeks 133,000 alimony In a lump sum or $360 per month, the custody of a minor child, one-third of the real property and $1000 attorneys fees, and suit money. The case has been pending for two years. The defense Is expected to Intro duce evidence to show that Barnum 's wealth la far below the plaintiff's claim. He la a son of a pioneer southern Oregon capitalist, with mny holdings In this city and val- PHVS10LOGY today, children. What follows is purely of secondary Interest. In the small Intestine the motor or peri staltic function Is regulated by or de pendent on such chemical substances as glucose, lactose, amlno-acids, pep tone, glycerin and soaps, there being all natural by-product of digestion of a wholesome mixed diet. In the large intestine the products of bac terial fermentation of carbohydrates, and such gases as hydrogen and car bonic acid gas, are more active In maintaining the motor function. A year or two ago some all-around specialists who know how to get front page space when their business needs stimulation, Issued public warnings against the practice of eat' lng wheat bran and similar coarse natural foods. They Implied that such foods are all right for rabbits but too "Irritating" for many up right mammals Whose ears and alt mentary canals are not so long. Personally, I approve of the food In the form the Creator offers It. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Drowning. Does water enter the lungs at the time of drowning? If not, under what conditions does water enter the lungs? What amount of water enters the stomach? A. P. Answer. As a rule only a trifle of water la found In the windpipe, and none In the lungs. Some mucous froth, perhaps stained with blood, is found in the windpipe. The lungs are merely congested or overfilled with blood, as In asphyxiation from smothering. Considerable water may enter the stomach, mouthfuls which the victim is compelled to swallow aa he struggles for air. Death Is due to shutting off of the air, not to the water that enters the breathing pas sages. The en ranee of a little water into the windpipe, however, may ex cite spasm of the larynx or choking which would contribute to the as phyxia. Baby Teeth. Is It advisable to have a two-year-old child's teeth filled ' or pulled when they decay? Mrs. K. W. H. Answer. Some of the baby teeth should be filled, for their premature loss tends to make the permanent teeth Irregular. Boric Acid Snuff. Kindly Inform me about snuffing boric acid for catarrh . . . F. M. R. Answer. I do not advise It. A reader reported that he finds great relief from chronic sinusitis by snuff ing a pinch of powdered boric acid once or twice a day. How Soon Resume Exercise? How soon after confinement should a woman start the exercises you ad vised? Mrs. W. P. P. Answer, As soon as her physician gives her permission. (Copyright, John P. Dllle Co.) Oregon Indians' Condition Today Written by Mrs. R. C. Van Valzah and read before Crater Lake Chap ter, D. A. R. (Note Since this article was writ ten there have been before congress several bills relating to Indian af fairs In Oregon, which when passed and put into effect will change many of the conditions mentioned). Chapter 8. Henry D. Dlllstrom, one-eighth Modoc, who was employed at the agency said that machinery that the Indians could use and was a lot better than what they had, waa con demned and destroyed rather than let the Indians have It. Dlllstrom was discharged from the service be cause he thought that the Indian blacksmith at the agency should shoe a team of horses for $3 which was the regular wage rather than send them an all day trip at $4.60 a day to Culloquln where the black smith charged $14 for the horses from the agency, making the Job cost $18.50. All this because the agency blacksmith was an Indian. A few years ago some Indian girls from Klamath were attend ing St. Mary's academy. They had dental work done In an office here. A statement of the cost was sent to the agency and a check received. No voucher was signed. Some time after, the father of one of the girls visited the dental office and In talk ing about the work asked If It would be possible to find out the price of his girl's work. The price waa given him. He shook his head and said, "Thpy said it was about five times that amount. They cheat us nil the time and we can't help our selves." The Indians are discussing three pinna" whereby they can rid them selves of the Indian bureau. First la the Carter plan. Second the cor poration plan. Third the plan where by they sell out "lock, stock and barrel." put their money into gov ernment bond and receive the in terest. In that way the capital would no be dlMlpated.H I quote thla from a letter from Ida Crawford, a Klamath Indian who has taken an active part In the Klamaths' flirht for property rights. She WTltes: "The polttjcal situation entirely responsible for the condition Is exactly as it was 100 years ago. Pernoris of Indian descent, and the Indiana themselvea. now know that reservations are maintained for graft and exploitation, with terrible wrongs to the Indians. If the people of the TJ. S. would only move against the huge appro priations made hy conrera for the maintenance of the parasitic civil service employee of the Indian bu reau, a great saving would be marie to the tax pa?rrs of the nation and a great and lasting good doe to the American Indian."

Pin-hole rot eradication (n Winter Nellls, the elimination of nest rot In Anjous and better conditioning of the Boscs, before marketing, were listed by Dr. Hartmon as needs of the pear Industry. He held that at present these defects were handicaps to the trade. He held It was of first Impor tance to place the pears on the mar ket In tip-top condition and ready to eat. The ground work to tnis end, he declared was well underway. Urges Chemical Tests Dr. Hartman also urged that chem ical tests be made and results distri buted so that the diet value of pears would be generally known to both the scientist and the layman. "I have never read a line about the' diet val ue of pears In a slentlflc magazine," he said. Valuable leads to the use of car bondloxlde gas In fruit shipments were hinted by Dr. Hartman. He aald the development would reduce the Icing cost, but that It was still In the experimental stage. Dr. Hartman also declared that the use of packages for pears would soon have to be considered by shippers, as a means to bring the pears to the trade and the consumers, In an ad vantageous and attractive manner. Dr. Hartman resigned from the de partment of agriculture July 1, and Is now connected with the Oregon Washington Pear Bureau, with head quarters at Corvallls. Twenty fruit shippers attended the meeting. LONDON ( AP) Registry office officials who marry a blushing bride and her swain and then pocket his fee with a smile have been brought Into line with those of more regular Income who have had salaries cut. The fees are not subject to Income tax but the registrar-general felt that a percentage should go to the treasury regardless. He pointed out that reg istration officials on salary had Buf fered reductlona In Income whercaa those who elected to depend upon fees had sacrificed nothing. As a consequence the fee officials are making "voluntary contributions" to the treasury. EXTRA SOLON SEATS SACRAMENTO. Cal.

At this time an executive committee composed of Oscar Lewis, Clint Dunnlngton and Bay Wilson, with Hall as secretary, was elected. Ideas were exchanged and President Lewis explained the vital Importance and worthiness of the purpose be hind the development; pointing out that erection of a quartz mill here would solve the local unemployment problem for the coming winter and offered a needed payroll possible from no other source. He added that this waa Jacksonvllle'a supreme chance to show outside capital the city's willingness to cooperate with development work and to encourage Industry In southern Oregon. The program, according to pres ent plans, will begin officially at 1 :00 p. m., August 20, and will feature baseball, horseshoe pitching, chopping and racing contests, with all local museums and points of Interest thrown open for the visitors. It has also been decided to mark the spot where gold was first discovered In Oregon, on Eich gulch In town, and station several miners at that point with pans and equipment to Illus trate to crowds the Intricacies of gold mining. Aa darkness approaches there will be a fight card staged by Mack L!l- lard, boxing promoter, In an outdoor arena which will be built for the oc casion; lighted horseshoe courts and numerous concessions of the carnival type to amuse and entertain crowds. Following this two dances, one strictly old-time, fiddlers, callers and every thing, and a more modern version In the hotel building will open. An effort will be made to secure the Odd Fellows hall.
