Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is in its vitalizing power. It gives Strang h
to the stomach and purity to the hlood. It is like the phosphates which supply
nature with the substances that build up the crops. The far-reachintf action ol
Doctor IMcrcc'8 (iolclcu Medical Discovery
Is due to its clfect on the stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition. Dis
eases that begin in the stomach are cured through the stomach. A bilious spell
is simply the result of an effort made hy the liver to catch up when over-worked
and exhausted. I have found the ' Discovery ' to he unsurpassed as a liver reg
ulator and rich blood-maker."

"May seventh, nineteen hundred

library constitution an by-laws. May
fourtoentli, the committee reported a
constitution and by-laws which were
adopted by the club. The club was
to elect a president and six trustees
from the club members, two for
three years, tw0 for two years and j
two for one year. President and :
two trustees were to be elected

building.
Mrs. Raymond said:
"Although the securing of a public
library was one of the alum of the
Salnm Woman's Club when the club
was first organized, or rather before
Its organization, no move was made
alone; that linn until October lentil,
nineteen hundred and three, when the
club held nil Informal discussion of
means of securing a public library
and Iho following Indies we,ie 11 p
polnled us a library o:inmltteo: Mm.
T. T. (ioor, Mrs. Cook M. Jones, and
Mr, h. II. Trnver, by Mrs. Cuslck,
then president of the club.
"On November twcnly-clr.hth, nine
teen Hundred and three, the commit
tee submitted 1 tin appointment of 0
conimllleo of fifteen ladbw to Inter
view business men of Salem and nsk
for suggest Ions for the beginning of
n public library. They uIho reported
against tiHklng for a Carnegie library
Until we hail Htarleil one nf our own;
they concluded with these words.
''We would suggest Hint If the citi
zens of Siileni seem to be not Inter
ested In the starling of 11 library, the
Woman's Club mako the beginning
for a library." The report, was
adopted and Rubsc(ucnt events will
nhow that the citizens of Snlem were
luil only not Interested, but In most
1'itHcn were strongly opposed to the
project, and tho Woman's Club had
to mako tho beginning. On January
ninth, nineteen hundred and four, the
committee of fifteen was appointed
as follows: Mesilanies (leer, Kelll
lier, V, A. Moore, Trnver, 0. M. .lotles,
Calbreath, K, R Waters, Stockton,
I'rescolt Dodd, C. 1'. Illshop, II. I.

Mrs. Ciccr resigned tho clialrmiinshlp
mill Mrs. Kelliher was appointed In
her place. S.ion alter this a book
social was held at the residence of
Mrs. T. T. Cieer and about, fifty books
were donated. This was the nucleus
of tho Salem Public Library. Mrs.
Kelliher, who gave more of her time
anil energy to the library work than
any other woman In the city, solicited
bonks from friends In the Kast, Some
were received from Portland nnd
Mrs. Kelliher and Mrs. A. N. Hush
personally donated a large number of
books. Donations were constantly re
ceived from Hie public. Some of these
were books which no one, not eben
the donors, wanted, some being out
of date textbooks, but some were good
nnd all rould be counted. An effort
was then made by tho committee to
secure part of tho council chamber
In tho City Hall for a library room,
but. wo met with little encouragement
and In most, cases with strong opposi
tion; members, said there was no
need of a public library, no onA'on!''
patronize II; Odd Fellows and Ma
sons had libraries, and 'hat was
enough. Fortunate for our cause,
Mr. F. W. Waters was mayor at llilt
time, and was heartily In sympathy
with our work, and It was due to his
iiilel, persistent work with Individ
ual members of the council that, they
at last, some time In November, nine
teen hundred nnd four, granted us
the use of the east end of Hie coun
cil chambers, provided It should not
cost them anything; they afterwards
gave us light anil heal. The club
voted to defray the expenses of fur
nishing the room, but money was
scarce, and what there was was
needed to purchase necessary books;
so Ih ecotniniltee visited lumber of
fices and mills, got a few boards from
this one and a few from that, Inter
viewed carpenters and begged a few
hours' work to put. up shelves and
make paper-racks; and they re
sponded generously. The chairman,
assisted by onei of Hie conimlttm,
stained and varnished the shelves;
they were not sandpapered, but. Ihey
held books. Some second-hand ta
bles woro bought and wo covered
them with fell, procured a small desk
nnd Iho furnishings were complete
at a minimum expense. Ten friends
of the cause pledged a dollar a month
for about two years to pay for maga
zines, others gave us a year's sub
scription or let us have their maga
zlni'H after they hail read them. Statu
and dally papers were secured, so

(i. II. Irwin, Mrs.
term: Mrs. V. W.
Waters, Mrs. T. T. deer. These lad
les, with the names following, served
at different, times on the library
board until It was turned over to the
council: Doctor Staples, Mrs. Mon
roe, Mrs. Catlm, Mrs. Gillingham,
Mrs. J. I'. Jones, Mrs. A. N". Hush,
Mrs. William Brown, Mrs. A. N.
Moores. Then the work of building
up the library beL'an In earnest. The
club dues and fees were small, so In
order to save expense the ladles did
the janitor work themselves, sweep
ing and mopping the council chamber,
washing windows, and on one occa
sion, cleaning tho cuspidors.
"For a while the ladles took turns
acting as librarian, but this did not
prove satisfactory. Some of the mem
bers, assisted by outside friends, paid
a certain sum each month and hired
Miss R Phillips to act as librarian
at twenty dollars a month. Hut
books were needed, reference books
for tho school children, for It was
the aim of the club from the start
to make the llbri.ry attractive and
useful to tho young people, and good,
reference books are expensive, so we
gave entertainments of divers sorts.
Wo had concerts, card parties, gave j
a charity ball; wo staged the "Cri
sis" at, the (Irand opera house, nnd
before wo we.ro through ran a lunch
room during the Cherry Fair any
thing to make money for the library.
Some mf the entertainments, 'while
good money-makers, were not. of a
high classical older, and the club was
criticized for not educating the pub
lic to a higher standard; so to please
the critics we secured Mary Kuntz
linker, a dramatic reader of national
fame, to read "Monsieur Ileniicalre,"
The entertainment was delightful, but
nlas! for net results! Tho "Huskln'
Ileo'' netted us JlL'ti.T.'i; the linker
reading, seventy-five cents! Kducat-
Ing the public has never been a fi
nancial success in Salem. Sometimes
the library lioard took charge of the
entertainments, but the club was tho
source to which we looked for money,
and ihii club minutes commonly con
tained these sentences: "Mrs. Kel
liher gave an Interesting account of
the library work and asked for more
money." October eighth, nineteen
IihiuIi'ihI nnd four, Mrs. Kelliher re
ported one thousand volumes In the
library and on December of tho same
year additional shelves for four thous
and volumes wern reported. October,,
nineteen hundred and five, the club
tendered tho library to the city, but
the council refused to accept It and
asked the club t i keep charge of It.
"All nuestlons as to there being no
one to patronize the library had long
since been answered, for from the
first opening, the attendance wns
much greater than had been nut lei-1
pated even by the most sanguine of
Its friends. I
"In January, nineteen hundred and
four, tho council voted three hundred
dollars to aid the library, and In
December, the same year, this amount
was Increased to five hundred dol
lars. Januarv twelfth, nineteen hun
dred and seven, the club discussed
the (divisibility of trying to procure
a Carnegie building, but nothing
could be done until a suitable site
could be secured. In Nnhemher, nine
teen hundred and twelve, a concert
j was given to raise money for a II
! brary site, and from that time dates
jtbe rise of real estate In Salem. If
I any ladies known to be on the library
board walked past a vacant lot and
looked at it. the price went up a
thousand dollars In twenty-four
, hours. Two sites were selected at
different times and a pa.xiuetit made
I to bind the bat gain, hut In each case
the owner lel'.ised to sign tho deed
when asked to do so- a fortunate
thing, for neither site was as beau
tiful as the present one.
! "In May, nineteen hundred nnd
jtilne, the matter of nurchasini: tho
present site was taken up, and in
June the library board secured an
option on the lot for five thousand,
five hundred dollars, the most that
the administrator, Mr. Charles Mo

A sprightly combination of French and
American ideasthe French for beauty,
grace, dash and "atmosphere" the American for strength and sttirdiness,
Anyone can see the possibilities of such a combination, And in the 1913
Mitchell cars you DO see them in a living, breathing, vivid way; a way
that stamps simple ELEGANCE in your mind, forever,
Conjure as you will, you cannot
imagine the effects produced in these new cars, until you see them, There
is no way you can compare them, for never have such ideas, and ideals,
been produced been worked out, and presented to you on such a high plane,
These cars are low --- close to the
ground, yet with big wheels and 10-inch clearance, They have long, clean
running boards a touch of the virile and majestic in car building that is
new, They are big in every way real out-door, serviceable cars made
for big things, Yet not a clumsy line, anywhere, Snug comfort in all the
seats a relaxation as alluring as a two-weeks' vacation, or a lazy Sunday
morning in your favorite arm chair, Turkish upholstery 10 in.ches deep; a
slant and contour to the seats that banish fatigue, and a finish that adds
just the right touch of completion. Nickel mountings, graceful curves, a
real windshield that improves the looks of things, besides all the other high
grade appurtenances that make for motoring pleasure, comfort and value,
Compare what tne "Mitchell" has
compare the motors the bore the stroke the power the wheel-base
the size the ease the comfort the trimmings the finish the simple
elegance the appearance, Take these points one by one, compare them
with other cars, and you will find that the MITCHELL has everything every
other car has and many features no other car can show,
