This time Miss Eva Gifford alleges in a suit against the'proprietors of the Biltmore hotel of New York City that while she! was on the nineteenth floor of that famous caravansary recently she was kissed by a person unknown to her, but whom she alleges she believes to be John Doe, Shestst-as the aforesaid John kissed her $10,000 worth at one sit ting, and as she does not know just where Johnny is, she brings suit against the hotel proprietors, whom she Llames for the unsolicited kissing bee. It is possible the lady is of the opinion that the kisses she alleges John absorbed were of the value she places upon them, but still it strikes us, though it is really none of our business, that HOLLAND WILL FIGHT Holland will fight if her snvprpJontv nr inr1pnrirlpnfp; , " " ? ; are uireaienea says Dr. tienry Van Dyke who was United States minister to the Netherlands for four years.

Governor Withycombe's management of the peniten tiary presents some unique features, and the "blind pig" maintained there is probably the newest departure in prison "reform." ihe intention no -doubt is to keen the convicts satisfied with their lot by allowing them plenty of the booze that law-abiding citizens outside the prison walls are prohibited indulging in. on a pair of the stolen boots which enabled the sheriff to track him, When a sheriff is caught violating the laws he is sworn to enforce the offense of the private citizen in taking a crack at the same law seems considerably lessened. Booze is a danger and a menace even when it is denied permis sion to enter the state.

It must be remembered that kisses are among the few things that have not gone up in value since, and on account of the war. If Johnny garnered $10,000 worth of sweetness from the lips of Eva at one brief meeting and before she could even learn his name, we submit he must have been "going some." Then too the defendant hotel keeper should ask a bill of particulars. The lady should show whether she fixed the value of her kisses at what she placed on those of John Doe, the naughty. She should be compelled to state whether she should not give consider able credit to John for kissing her. A fellow kissing a female stranger in a public hotel these days is taking a pood many chances as many at leaj-t as the female, and at requires a brave as well as a gallant man to tackle the "Job.

He evidently prefers his position as head of the lower house to a posi tion in the ranks of the upper. S. B. Huston announced yesterday his withdrawal from the senatorial race.

The two Hindus, Ram Singh who was killed by the marshal after he had killed Ram Chandra in the court room at San Francisco last Tuesday, and his victim, were cremated yesterday and their ashi s scattered on'the bay. It is all right of course, but still it makes a fellow feel that the innocent victim should have a little different treat ment even after death from his murderer. Scattering their ashes on the bay at the same time looks too much like burying them in the same grave. President Konenkamp of the telegraphers' union says that in case the strike occurs, as proposed, it will not af fect the United Press news service. The union has a con tract with the United Press and as that association has always played square and so has the union, the contract between them will be kept. Capital Journal readers can depend on getting the full press dispatches even should the telegraphers' strike materialize.

Alex La Folletto is receiv ing favor ou the part uf the farmers in counties of Oregon outside of the one he represents in the state annate is quite apparent. A few davs ago the Tribune editor met a farmer from Polk county in fealem who said: "I want to call your attention to a man by the namo of Alex La rolk'tt,,1, now holding a position as one of the senators from Mariun county I am alwuvs delighted to hear you speak of this man, and if the state has any more like him I would like to see them in the senate." Tlwre is much truth in what this far mer said. The public service needs more men like him. It would be a personal gratification to many of the senator's X friends to advance him to a still higher position, but that is impossible at this tune and the least the people can uo for this worthy representative is to sup port him in the republican primaries. Bo sides, his rugged honesty and his plod ding faithfulness arc especially needed in the difficult position he now seeks. He is relied upon heavily for his loyalty and judgment are unexcelled. 1 it required a vote of the entire pop ulation of the stnte to nominate Mr. La r'ullettp as candidate for stnte senator from this county he would be made to let 1 that he had the confidence of the entire republican party, for his loyalty to the people has made him prominent in ether counties as well as in his home county. It is believed that his faithful uts& in the senate has made him so D'Hid that nothing short of a load of dynamite can dislodge him or prevent ins nomination and re-election. "Well that's all over aow, and 1 can fajH that you have improved in many ways. I notice it, especially, in we way you greet the neighbors in your poise when in company."

The boys "over there" would certainly give that as th,?ir decision, and it is well known that it is tho general opinion in Oregon. The incident has cer tainly considerably lessened Mr. Ayor's influence as head of the state food con servation administration. It would be advisable for the good of tho cause that he withdraw. His subsequent apology to Mr. Woodward does not add to his importance. (Tomorrow Is youth an asset or a Disadvantage!) JOURNAL WANT ADS PAY YOUR HEALTH By ANDREW F. CURRIER, M. D. Ulcers. LET AYER EE SIGN. (Woodburn Independent) An assistant librarian named Hunt Portland failed to subscribe for a Lib erty bond, drew a salary of $175 per month, and stated that she did not be lief in war. Thero was naturally a pub lie uproar and the Public Library board ot directors had to take cognizance of such a disloyal display. Now it so hap pened that the majority of the board wonted to be polite and would doubt less have given the affair a coat of ..-litewash were it not that one dirco t:i, the great patriot, W. P. Woodward, demanded the woman's dismissal. This the board refused to do and waited with- requesting her resignation, which was accepted. Then the chairman of the board, W. B. Ayer, who is also heed of tho food conservation movement in this state, referred to Mr. Woodward as "yellow clear through." It sucms1 strange that a man in such a governmen- ' tal position as Mr. Ayer occupies would' X. Please my a word about ul cers, their cause and effects, and the proper treatment if they are responsive to treatment. . I have heard a strict diet is beneficial in vlaer of the stomach. IVftaf are tome of the symptoms? Ansieer An ulcer is simply a sore upon the skin or mucous mombrane, In othef wordB. a break ing down of the cells, frequently with only slight tendency to get well. In the latter respect ulcers differ from healthy wounds which begin to get wool almost as soon as they are formed or made. Ulcers may be caused by Injury, by burns, and by poor nutrition of the tissues where they occur. They may be accompanied with sloughing or destruction of the tissue, and perhaps by reabsorptlon of dead and poisonous material. They are often attended with haemorrhage and with great weak ness in consequence ot the pro longed discharge which comes from them, and which means waste of tissue without proper strength for repair. This la particularly the case with ulcers which attend such diseases as syphilis and tuberculosis. Ulcers which accompany these diseases are ofy?n Incurable unless means are found to cure the dis eases which eaused them. The treatment of ulcers should be con stitutional and consist in building up the general condition; and also local, which is directed to the sore Itself. The first will Include all neces sary hygienic measures, comfort able and well ventilated housing, leep, exercise in the open air, good food, Including an abundance of tnllk, and perhaps mi-h tonics as eod-llver oil, quint"- strychnine and Iron. Local treatment Includes cleanli ness and frequent dressing of the ulcer, and the application of astrin gent and stimulat'iT substances, especially such minerals as lead, copper, zinc, mercury and sliver. In ulcer of the stomach which has been described In a separate paper, a strict diet Is almost Im perativethat Is, the stomach must be given just as little work as possible. Some of the symptoms of ulcer of the stomach are sharp pain, in digestion, loss of appetite and haemorrhage. If the ulcer perforates the peri toneal coat of the stomach, there may be serious haemorrhage and even fatal peritonitis. Questions and Answers J. B. B. for two years 1 Tiave suffered with !IJ pain on the lack of both legs, from knees to toes, and I have thus far been able to get vcry little relief.

There are many things for the treatment of this trouble Including blistering, heat, baths, massage and electricity and sometimes it Is necessary to make a trial of all of them before finding the proper means ot relief.
