NEWSPAPERS ABE PUBLIC MIRRORS.
THE local newspapers toll the story of a city's or community's growth
better than any other one thing. If you pick up a newspaper and see
theroiu a good lino of advertising, you can be certain that the city is
all right. If you see news well displayed, with catchy headlines and
the "boiler plate" not in evidence, you can Bafoly invest your money
in that community. There is a reason for this and that is that the first
place a merchant begins to ' economic as times get dull or trade stagnant
is on his advertising bills. He does this just because it is the first thing
that strikes him he can do without. Ho must still pay rent and keep clerks,
and all incidental expenses go on juBt the same whether he is doing much
or little business. He cuts off his advertising expense simply becauso that
is about the only place that be can cut off the outgo.
If the city is prosperous then it is a prety safe assurance that the sur
rounding country is also all right, for tbe prosperity of the city depends on
that of the surrounding territory.
We have without visiting our neighboring cities, been able to keep pretty
dose tab on them simply by watching their newspapers. In the past few
years there has been marked improvement among our exchanges all along
the line. Albany's papers are bright, citified and full of news, well told and
nicely presented. Astoria's papers are true reflexes of Astoria's greatness.
Eugene has a splendid daily, the Guard, that would be a credit to a city
double its size, and the paper but emphasizes what we have said, for it is
in one of the best and liveliest little cities on the coast.
The Coos Bay country a few years ago was represented by a few weeklies,
und not vory energetic or lively weeklies either. The country wbb not de
veloped and could not support them. Now the papers there toll a story of
phenomenal growth. Bandon has a splendid newspaper, and the Record at
Marshfield is newsy, breezy, up to the minute in news and make up and by
its appearance tells of prosperous surroundings. This is exceptionally true
of the Coos Bay section for the vast natural wealth of that section was
utterly neglected until a few years ago, and now it ib looming up as one of
the richest and most important districts in the state.
Roseburg, through its splendid papers tells the same Btory of prosperity,
and so do Grants Pass and Medford with their metropolitan papers and wide
awakeness. A glance at any of thesa newspaper will convince anyone that
tlio groat Rogue Rivor valloy is a wonderfully prosperous and productive one.
You can almost smell tho orchard bloom or get the hunger-giving odor of
apple and pear. , . !
Across the mountain is the city built by Cain and once known as "Enoch,"
but now satisfied with tlio modern name of Klamath Falls. Any Medford
man will tell yqu tho story about Cain building the city is correct, for sac
red hlBtory records that whon he left the Harden of Eden ho "went cast,"
which of courso locates tho place the right direction from tho original or for
that matter the present "Gnrden of Eden," tho Rogue River valley. A few
years ago Klamath falls was a sort of gathering place for cowboys, shoep
men and hand-painted women, such as lend spice and varianco to fronties life
in some places. Take a look at Its big, bright daily paper, The North
wostorn, and you need not bo told that Klamath Fulls is a city. Tho get-up
of tho papor and its advertising columns tell you that and this without
rending a thing about the city. If it wns first built by Cain it was Burely a
long timo Rotting a move on, but is now making up for lost time.
Up iu tho northern part of tho state it is tlio same. Tho Hood River
Olacior tells you that th.'ro is a wide-awako, prosperous community behind
it. At Tho Dalles, the papers tell a story of thrift and "Easy Street.''
rondloton not much use saying anything about tho Round-up city this
week, for perhaps you aro there; but Pendleton is grcnt just as you would
expect it to lo from getting a glimpso of tho East Oregonian, ono of tho
oldest papers In eastern Oregon, and ono of the best anywhere.
La (Irando reflects its rich surroundings in its splendid nowHpapors; and
you can almost see- tho yellow nugget" of linker in tho Democrat and Herald,
which, advertising tho greatness and richness of linker's mines, forests and
farms, show in their news and style that their stories aro true else they
could 'not rank as they do among tho best little papers in tho stato.
Hoppner, Condon and Lexington nrro in tho list and down through tho
center of the stato and in its heretofore tin get iitnblo sections railroads nre
being built end as they reach them you will seo tlio weeklies ehnngo to dail
ies, and these grow and prosper just a" the communities in which thoy are
published develop.
Tho newspaper is the mirror held nl for you lir which you cnu see the
reflection of tho city where it la published as well as tho surrounding coun
try Judging our great stato by her newspapers, and wo know of no better,
or more accurate way, wo can take a j"t pride in knowing that all her people
are prosperous from Clatsop to Malheur and from Coos to Wallowa.
MOTRER! IS CHILD'S
STOMACH SOUR, SICK
i
If Tongue Is Coated or If Cross, Fever
ish, Constipated Give "California
Syrup of Figs."
Don't scold your fretful, peevish
child. See if tongue is coated; this it
a sure sign its little stomach, liver and
bowels are clogged with sour waste.
When listless, pale feverish, full if
cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't
eat, sleep or act naturally, has stomach
ache, indigestion, diarrhoea, give a tea
spoonful of "California Syrup of Figs"
and in few hours all the foul waste,
the sour bile and fermenting food passes
out of the bowels and you have a well
and playful child again. Children love
this harmless "fruit laxative," and
mothers can rest easy after giving it,
because it never fails to make their
little "insides" clean and sweet.
Keep it handy, Mother! A little given
today save a Bick child tomorrow, but
get the genuine. Ask your druggist for
a 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup
of Figs," which has directions for ba
bies, children of all ages and for grown
ups plainly on the bottle. Remember
there are counterfeits sold here, so
surely look and see that yours is made
by the "California Fig Syrup Com
pany." Hand back with contempt any
other fig syrup.
How everything, including folks,
cheers up when sunshine comes after a
prolonged storm.
OF EVERETT
City Has Gained 11,547 in Last Ten
Months, According to Figures of
Census Taker.
MUD run laisin wisi.J
Everett, Wash., Sept. 11. Everett's
population is today 31,547, according to
I'olk & Co.'s new directory. Everett's
growth during the last ten months has
been remarkable. In 1910 the United
States census gave the city a popula
tion of 24,800. November of that year
the city voted dry and the population
steadily decreased, value of real estate
and residences slumped from one-third
to one-half, scores of business places
were vacant and could not 6e rented
and the population was reduced to
less than 20,000. A gain of approxi
mately 11,547 in less than a year is a
showing of which the city is very
proud. The growth began immediately
after the result of the election was
known and it has been all the more
remarkable because conditions of the
lumber and shingle business have not
been as good as they were last year.
Business places are all filled, the
residences available for renting are
tew, values have increased arffl the out
look is promising.
LESSON IN SCIENTIFIC
COMPLEXION RENEWING
(From tho Family Physician.)
Everyone has a beautiful skin under
neath the one exposed to view. Bear
that in mind and it will be easier to
understand the correct principle in ac
quiring a lovely complexion. Nature is
constantly shedding the top skin in
laky particles like dandruff, only much
smaller in size. In abnormal conditions,
or in advancing ago, these particles are
not shed as rapidly as in robust youth.
The longer thoy remain the more soiled
or faded they become that's the im
mediate cause of a "bad complexion."
It has been discovered that ordinary
mercolized wax, to be had at any drug
store, will absorb those worn-out parti
cles. The absorption, while hastening
Nature's work, goes on gradually
enough to cause no inconvenience. In
a week or two tho transformation is
complete. Tho fresh, healthy-hued,
youthful underskin is then wholly in
evidence. You who nre not satisfied
with your complexion should get an
ouneo of mercolized wax and try this
treatment. Use the wax nightly, like
lold cream, washing it off mornings.
A Personal Guarantee.
The Meritol Preparations are made
by the American Drug & Press Associa
ation, of which we are a member and
part owner. We personally guarantee
every one of them. Your money cheer
fully refunded if you are not absolute
ly satisfied. Try them on our say bo.

THE ROUND-UP.
Tho London Timos is getting tho
American newspaper idea of a hustle
on und tins sent a mini to the const for
the purpose of writing it up for a spe
cial edition.
Women Are Constantly Being Restored to
Health by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
"Worth mountains of gold," says one woman. Another
says, "I would not give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound for all the other medicines for women in the
world." Still another writes, " I should like to have the
merits of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound thrown
on the sky with a searchlight so that all suffering women could
read and be convinced that there is a remedy for their ills."
We could fill a newspaper ten times the size of this with such quo
tations taken from the letters we have received from grateful women
whose health has been restored and suffering banished by Lydia K
Ilnkham'g Vegetable Compound. 1
Why has Lydia E. Pinklmm's Vegetable Compound accomplished
such a universal success ? Why has it lived and thrived and Tp Ton
doing its glorious work among the sick women of the world for more
than 80 years t "
Simply and surely because of ita sterling worth. Tho reason no
other medicine has ever approached its success is plainly and aim.
ply bocause there is no other modiuine so good for women's ills
Here are two letters that just came to the writer's desk-only two
of thousands, but both tell a comforting story to every sufferinir wo.
man who will read thora-and be guided by them.
