Sou thern Oregon is one of the most
promising fields for investments on
the Pacific Coast. While Rogue River
Valley has an immense wea tn in the
mines, farms, timber and water power,

is, in the opinion Of Colonel Draper,
very great handicap to the prosper.

NEGLECT ALWAYS DANGEROUS.
To the average man it seems childish
to doctor cold, and unless it becomes
particularly annoying to him, little or
no attention is given it. Otter a cold

Is grave mistake, as even though
the warm weather may bring relief,
the system is thereby weakened and
rendered susceptible to disease. A cold
should never be neglected, whether it
be child or an adult who is afflicted,
