George Hofer Engaged in Making
Government Trail-After Coyotes.
Alba. Nov. 23-Weather cloudy
with light flurries of snow yesterday,
but today it is raining.
Stock cattle are making a living in
pastures but milk cows and cattle that
are being held for beef are all fed
There is some good beef here yet
both cows and steers.
H. T. Connell has purchased two
hunting dogs, a greyhound and
bloodhound and will devote all his
leisure time this winter to hunting
and exterminating coyotes which
have pretty nearly taken possession
of this part Of the country and nave
nut most of the settlers out of the
chicken business.
Many stockmen are waiting for
business to open up so they can haul
in their winter supplies before the
roads get bad.
Ora Arbogast has a force OF men
cutting and skidding logs and getting
them ready to haul on sleds when the
snow comes.
Mr.. Parker, the forester, has en-
ployed George Hofer to superlntend
the building of the government tran
and has a force of men at work
commencing at the head of HidawaS
grade, going by way of LooneS
springs and through the Oriental pa
sin and on south through the Johr
Day country The trail Will be si'
feet wide and finished according U
specifications as far as labor an'
weather will permit Mr.. Hoffer ma
instructions to select the best ant
mostsfeaslble route regarding grade
and passes. Mr.. Hoffer is a typlca
mountaineer and knows all about tn
country that tbs trail will penetrate

"The people here do not drink
enough water to keep healthy" eX-
claimed a well known authority. THE
numerous cases Of stomach trouble,
kidney and bladder diseases and
rheumatism are mainly due TO the
fact that the drinking of water, ma
lures greatest medicine, has been
neglected.
Stop loading your system with pat
ent medicines and cure-alls; but get
on the water wagon. If you are real
" sick, why, of course, take the
proper medicines-plain common veg
etable treatment, which will not shat
ter the nerves or ruin the stomach
When requested for such pre-
| scriptlon for'the cure of rheumatism
and kidney trouble the answer was:
you must make the kidneys do their
work: they are the filters OF the
blood. They must be made to strain
out Of the blood the waste matter
and acids that cause rheumatism;
the urine must be neutralized so II
will no longer be a source of irrita-
ton to the bladder, and, most Of all
you must keep these acids from
forming in the stomach. This Is the
cause of stomach trouble and poor
digestion. For these conditions
would suggest the following prescrip'
ton: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla
three ounces. Mix by shaking wei
in bottle and take in teaspoonfu
doses after each meal and at bed
time, but don't forget that watel
Drink plenty and often.
But unless you go to the trouble
to ask the druggist for the Dandelior
, and Sarsaparlla separately, and thei
buy one ounce Kargon Compound, II
an original (unopened) package
plainly printed, Guaranteed No. 10
under National Drug Law, and mi
the Kargon with the other ingredi
ents at your home, you had bette
d not use this effective prescription a
t all. It may be worse than useless
perhaps even harmful, and you
money wasted. Under no circum
stances accept the prescription a
ready prepared, nor accept any eX
cuse for offering it to you that way
- Purchase separately the Kargon Com
n pound, No. 10S Guaranteed, as eS
planned above, and mix these thre
ingredients at home yourself, or don
use at all.
u This valuable information and sim
pie prescription should be posted u
in each household and used at tn
first sign OF an attack Of rheumf
tism, backache or urinary trouble,
p matter how slight.
