Factory is running on full time, with
a plentiful supply of orders on hand.

out by this factory is steadily in
creasing, and travelling salesman
has been employed to visit the trade
regularly in Oregon, Washington and
California. The oak timber in the
hills between Dallas and Falls City is
said to have no superior for handle

the capacity of the Dallas factory will
have to be doubled, or even trebled, in
the near future.
Writing from Canton, Ohio, Dan
Polling, the crack center of last years

member is that in unison and harmony
is good teamwork and victory, while
in jealousy and discord is individual
play and sure defeat. Tell the boys
I'll yell for them and think Of them
when the games are on" 1t was
superior team work that won the Ore
gon championship for Dallas College
last year, and the boys of the present
team will do we'll to keep Dams advice
in mind.

SO many women suffer make life daily
purgatory. If men suffered with head
ache as women do, business would be

that men do not suffer from these severe

womanly cause for them?
When the womanly organism is dis
eased, headache, backache, nervousness

are sure to follow.
