some time and the money was not
available to finance the work of de
troylng the pest Infested trees.

sient relief labor was then devised
and is proving very satisfactory.

ation. Captain Durham said this after

EXPLORERS REPORT FINDING LOST CAPITAL OF QUEEN OF SHEBA
DAYS IN DEATH VALLEY
RECALLED TO MORRIS
Two long-time residents of Med
ford, Mr. and Mrs. George H. Mor
ris, 1030 North Central, were much
Interested In. the editorial corres
pondence published recently In this
paper, particularly the items from
Death Valley. Mrs. Morris visited
the Mall Tribune office yesterday
and in commenting upon the articles
explained that she and Mr. Morris
lived in the now abandoned town
of Rhyollte, Nevada, from 1905 to
1010, when it was a city of 7000
souls.
She corrected the report of the
Purance creek guide, however, that
there were 600 saloons In the place
at that time. By actual count there
were only 45.
Rhyollte, a typical boom mining
town, however sprang from a village
to a place of 7000 In a few years and
then when hopes of riches In gold
were not realized, sank back to a
village and is now entirely abandon
ed save for one or two families and
a curio shack.
Mr. and Mrs. Morris at one time
lived In the famous beer bottle house
In Rhyollte, and also built the first
shingled house in the town. They
left Rhyollte In 1910 and after a trip
Into Mexico, came to Medford where
they have since made their home.

Where losfc
capibal of the
Queen of.Sheba
was found - -
FRENCH
SOMAUlAND
CapL Cornlgllon Molinler and Andre Malreaux reported from French Somollland that they had found the lost capital of the Queen of
Sheba. The explorers said 20 towers of the temples still stand at the site which they gave as the northern edge of the Great Sandy Desert In
Arabia as shown In map at left. They reported they had taken photographs of the ruins. If the two are correct in the belief, they have
ended a search conducted by scientists for centuries. The land of Sheba in Biblical times was one of the wealthiest In the then known
world. The second Book of Chronicles hinted at this wealth in describing the visit of the Queen ot Sheba to King Solomon when It said: "And
she gave the King an hundred and twenty talents of gold and of spices great abundance and precious stones." At right is an old steel en
graving depicting the Queen's visit to Solomon. (Associated Press Photo)

"NOT CONSTIPATED
FOR SEVEN WEEKS"
Writes Mrs. Johnson After
Using Kellogg's All-Bran
Sufferers from constipation will
bo interested in this unsolicited
letter:
"Your Alt-BitAM surely Telieves
constipation. I am so g lad over the
good it has done me that I feel I
must write and tell yon of it.
"For lunch I take banana, a
large one. Six tablespoons of All
Bkan in a sauce dish, and dip
banana at each bite until all is
consumed. I haven't been consti
pated now for seven weeks." Mrs.
Louise Johnson, 1433 Forest Street,
Denver, Colorado.
Constipation often causes head
aches, loss of appetite and energy,
sleeplessness. This condition is
usually due to lack of "bulk" to ex
orcise the intestines, and vitamin B
to further promote regular habits.
Kellogg's All-Bran has both, as
well as iron for the blood.
The "bulk" In All-Bran fa much
like that in leafy vegetables. With
in the body, it forma a soft mass.
Gently, it clears out the wastes.
Try All-Bran in place of patent
medicines often harmful. Two
tablespoonfuls daily will overcome
most typos of constipation. Chronic
cases, with each meal. If not re
lieved this way, sea your doctor.
Use as a cereal, or In cooking.
