To the core.
With aching bones.
And husky tones
When you speak,
And you’re week
In the knees,
And you sneeze,
And often cough
Your bead near off,
And you note
That your throat
Feels quite raw,
And your jaw
Feels as if
You'd got a biff,
And dull peins
Vex your brains,
Then you've caught it,
You have got it—
It’s the grip

of a nice, durable and medium grade of goods, and

Coughs. |
Coughs are warnings of something amiss in throat and lungs. Don’t
mind the cough, inind the cause. Use a remedy that will go to the *&
source of trouble and cure that. Such a remedy is
Dr. Lowe’s White Pine Cough Syrup with Tar.
f
f
It cures promptly and thoroughly, because it cures in the right man­
ner: Relieves irritation, heals inflamed surfaces, loosens the cough and
soothes and strengthens while it cures. A splendid remedy for children
because it is so good to cure and so good to take. Price 25 and 50c.

It's in the air,
It’s everywhere;
The microbe of the grip
Ison another trip,
And up and down,
Through all the town,
By night and day
It seeks its prey,
And it’s the fad,
If you are sad.
Or even mad,
Or if you sneeze,
Or cough or wheeze,
Or feel too warm.
Or chills alarm,
To wear a look of grim dismay
And hoarsely say:
"I’ve caught It,
I’ve got it—
It's the grip I"

The Seventh Yamhill Boy.
Another Yamhill county boy has fall­
en in the Philippine service, to be added
do the six who were previously numbered
with the dead. Edwin Earle Hamilton,
son of Mr. and Mrs. J. K. Hamilton of
Amity, was killed in an engagement at
Sebank, Leyte, 011 December 14th. He
was 28 years old. He left his home in
Amity in August, 1899, and in the fol­
lowing month enlisted in the 43d infan­
try. His last letters were written on De­
cember 6, from Tannaura, Leyte, telling
his mother they were to start on a march
at 4:30, and for her not to expect to hear
again for 20 or 30 days, but that, as his
time of service was so nearly out, he
would be home to spend the Fourth of
July. On January 31 his mother, who
had never missed a careful perusal of the
Oregonian's columns for news of her
son’s regiment, was stricken with grief
to read his name among the killed. The
body will be brought home for interment
at some future time.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.
Notable among the pleasures afforded
by the Shasta route ie the winter trip to
southern California and Arizona. Re­
newed acquaintance with this section
will ever develop fresh points of interest
and added sources of enjoyment, under
its sunny skies, in the variety of its in­
dustries, in its prolific vegetation and
among its numberless resorts of mount­
ain. shore, valley and plain. The two
daily Shasta trains from Portland io Cal­
ifornia have been recently equipped with
the most approved pattern of standard
and tourist sleeping cars, but the low
rates of fare will still continue in effect.

California and Arizona may be bad on ap­

The Noil Feasible Houle.
In talking of a railroad route from
Portland to Tillamook the capitalists of
Portland seem to overlook the cheapest
and most feasible route, which is without
doubt from Sheridan by way of Grand
Ronde pass. It is the best route for two
or three reasons. It would get the trade
of the coast from a much larger terri­
tory—all the way from Nehalem to
Dolph, tapping the fertile valleys of the
Nehalem, Wilson, Trask, Tillamook, the
two Nestuccas and Three Rivers^ and'
coming within easy reach of the Salmon
river valley. This practically covers the
whole of Tillamook county and half of
Yamhill. It would mean the construc­
tion of only about 75 miles of road, over a
route which is practically never blockad­
ed by snow. At the crossing of each of
the aforementioned rivers would be es­
tablished large saw mills, to which could
be floated in the winter season an un­
told wealth of timber. The proximity
to fishing industries would also be no
small item in the commerce of this sec­
tion, and everybody knows the dairy
and agricultural products would be large.
It is the route of all routes projected, re­
quiring the least outlay and bringing the
largest returns. Eight or ten years ago a
preliminary survey of this line was made
and was found to be very feasible. It is
the only gateway of nature for a railroad
into Tillamook county, and the time is
coming when a railroad will occupy it.

the opinion that it was unnecessary to
close the school. At this writing there
is no diphtheria in town.
