PAGE THREE S. W. PRESBYTERY F MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 27. 1934. Slight Fee Collected From Visitors Enables Hard Pressed Blue Bloods Pre serve Ancestral Halls By Alexander H. t'hl PARIS 1 Tourist' pennies aro helping to keep the wolf from the door of some of France's most mag nificent chateaux. Hard times have hit prince and marquis Just as heavily as everyone else and some of France's most fa mous country homes are falling Into ruin because their owners can't af ford to keep them up. Now an association of chateaux owners has been formed whereby tourists may visit these private dwell ings at certain times on payment of a slight fee. The money goes toward keeping plumbing in order and walls from tumbling down. British Follow Suit It has worked so successfully that a similar association may be formed in England to help the lordly owners of some of Britain's stately houses. Called the "most aristocratic trade union in the world." the French as sociation was founded by the owners of chateaux to defend their own in terests and to preserve for France a tourist asset that was being threaten ed with oblivion. The chief qualification Is to own a chateau, preferably with historic in terest, and to be ready to throw It open to the public. In return, the owner is supplied with funds for up keep of the place and sometimes even gets tax advantages and the right to keep his estate intact for himself and his heir. Guard Coffee Hours Funds are raised by subscriptions and by the collection of 50 centimes (about three and a half cents) from each visitor. Some of the proceeds pay expenses of the organization. Naturally chateau owners have no desire to have their coffee on the ter races interrupted by visitors, so defi nite times have been assigned to sightseers. There are more than 60 chateaux In the neighborhood of Paris which now can be visited. Many of them never have been open to the public. '.0. SITE PURCHASED GRANTS PASS, Sept. 27. (Spl.)

WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE WITHOUT CALOMEL And You'll Jump Out of Bed ir the Morning Rat-in' to Go If you feel sour and sunk and tbe work looks punk, don't swallow lot of salts, min eral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing gum and upect them to make you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full of sunshine. For they can't do it. They only move the bowels and a mere movement doesn't get si the cause. The reason for your down-and-oitl feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily. If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn't digest. It just decays in tbe bowels. Gaa bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, bid tasta and your breath la foul, kin often breaks out in blemishes. Your bead schea and you feel down and out. Your whole lystem is poisoned. It takes those good, old CARTER'S LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two Kunds ot bile flowing; freely and make you I "up and up." Tbry contain wonderful, harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing when it comes to making the bile flow freely. But don't ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter's Little Liver Pills. Look for the name Carter' Little fiver Pills on the red label. Reaent a BU batitu t. 25c atdrua stores. 0 1 93 1 C. M . Cn.
