VERNONIA EAGLE. VERNONIA, OREGON Friends in High Places Dogs always have had loyal champions in high places. The While House never has been with out them. Kings and princes often have thought more of their dogs than of their subjects—to say nothing of the subjects often agreeing with their rulers and thinking more of the dogs, too. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription Is a tonic which has been helping women of all ages for nearly 70 years. Adv. Boomerang His own misdeeds often return to the author of them.—Seneca.

Stomach Gas So Bad Seems To Hurt Heart "The gas on my stomach was so bad I could not eat or sleep. Even my heart seemed to hurt. A friend sug gested Adlerika. The first dose I took brought me relief. Now I eat as I wish, sleep fine and never felt better.” —Mrs. Jas. Filler. Adlerika acts on BOTH upper and lower bowels while ordinary laxatives act on the lower bowel only. Adlerika flives your system a thorough cleans- ng, bringing out old, poisonous matter that you would not believe was in your system and that has been causing gas pains, sour stomach, nervousness and headaches for months.

ANTA MONICA, CALIF. —Continued failure of me diums to claim the reward offered by the late Harry Houdin, who provided a test for proot of communication with the spirit world, makes me think of a thing that hap pened at the first seance ever held down in my neck of the woods. S The operator was summoning the spirits ot departed deal ones to order. A lanky youth out of the bottoms desired to speak with his father. Presently, a shad owy figure appeared □etween the cabi net’s dark curtains and a voice uttered muffled sounds “Is 11 a t you. Paw?” inquired the ■seeker. “Yes, son,” an Irvin 8. Cobb swered the voice. "Paw, air you in heaven?" Seemingly startled, the ghostly ap parition hesitated a moment be fore giving what might be taken tor an affirmative sound. “Paw, air you an angel?” de manded the son. Again an embarrassing delay then a diffident mumble “A regular angel with wings and everything?” Once more a low grunt. “Say. Paw.” cried the youth, perk ing up, “whuf do you measure from tip to tip?” Senatorial Shifts XT AM1NG no names, a little bird I ’ just in from Washington whis pers that one senator, under the in fluence of alternating psychic waves e something, already has shifted three times on the plan to make the Supreme court over.

ALIFORNIA’S attorney general decides that draw poker, unless played as a percentage game, is not gambling. Had be gone deeper into the sub ject, ne might have ruled that draw poker, as generally played nowa days, is not even a game. What vet eran would call .t anything except a sacrilege against an ancient and once honorable sport when folks are free to introduce at will such abom inations as deuces wild or one-eyed jacks or barber's itch or spit in the ocean? To draw honest cards; to try to play the other fellow’s chances as well as youi own: to try to figure when to raise and when to call and when to quit; to try to pick the right moment tor bluffing, since the bluff is the real soul of the thing—that's poker, my masters, an American- born pastime, hallowed with age. ennobled by usage, beloved of the fathers.
