THE CAUSE OF COLDS.
Good Advice Regarding the Prcven-
tIon of Coughs and Colds.

II people would only properly for
tify and strengthen their system,
about 9S per cent of coughs colds
and pneumonia might be avoided.
These troubles are simply the result
OF weakness. which produces a ca
tarrhal condition Of the mucous mem
brane. which is as an internal skin
OF the body When this skin is weak
ened, II becomes infected with germs
which are carried through the system
by the blood. These parasites attack
and break these delicate tissues and
set up a soreness which produce what
Is in reality an external scrofula.
The only thing that will cure coughs
and colds and prevent pneumonia is
medication which is absorbed and
carried by the blood so that the dis
eased membrane Is disinfected, clean
ed, soothed and healed.
We have a remedy which we hon
estly believe infallable and unsur-
passable for the prevention and cure
of coughs, colds and all catarrhal con-
dltons. 1t is the prescription of
famous physician, who has an envi-
able reputation of 80 years Of cures
gained through the use of this medi-
cine. We urge everybody In Pendle-
ton who has need Of such a medicine
to try Rexall Mucu-Tone
1t stands to reason that we could
not afford to make such statements
and give our own personal guarantee
TO this remedy II we were not abso-
lutely positive that we could substan-
tiate our claim in every particular,
and We see no reason why anyone
should hesitate to accept our offer
and try 1t. We have two sizes OF
Rexall Mucu-Tone. Prices soc and

cient for cure. AS general thing
the most chronic case is cured with
an average OF three large bottles.

PUBLICITY LESSENING
RAILROAD ACCIDENTS

New York.-Every five minutes
railway casualty occurs in the Uni
ted States This carnage shocks for
eign nations and causes them to ques-
ton our standards Of civilization-for
the slaughter excites little protest
here. The problem OF how to save
life and limb on our railroads Is
worthy Of grayer concern. That 1t is
signified in an announcement that
receiving 1t in certain quarters Is sig
nfied in an announcement that the
Southern Pacific has adopted a poll
Icy Of giving full publicity Of investi-
cations into all accidents. This was
described, not quite correctly as "a
new era" for all railroad men know
that on another Hartman line, the
Union Pacific, the system has been
in operation for two years, with re-
suits that have exceeded expectations.
The vanderbilts have also been won
over to the policy OF publicity, and
its fierce light has worked wonders.

Washington, April 24.-Alaska is no
longer the place where the pork bar
rel waxed fat and the politician fat
ter with age.
The territory of the far north where
the sun shines all night during the
winter and the mail is carried over
trails of ice and snow has ceased to
be the mecca OF the politician who
.. rendered distinguished service for
the party in the states ana who took
out his reward by being sent to AL
aska to get what he could and work
whom he could.
At last Alaska is to have real Am
erican government-for the benefit Of
the governed. This has come about
since Richard A. Ballinger has been
appointed secretary of the interior
under President Taft. Not that Pres
ident Roosevelt and Secretary Gar
! field knowingly allowed graft In the
frozen territory, but neither of them
understood the problems Of govern
/
Roosevelt, who was a great man for
rewardlng his political friends, sent
q great many of them to Alaska.
Many of them did not know what to
do when they got there. and this was
as bad for the people of that section
as deliberate misgovernment.
Secretary Ballinger is from Sc
attic. which Is the first American port
Alaskans hit. after they leave that
country. And every one In Seattle
knows something about Alaska. Then
too, Secretary Ballinger has been to
Alaska and has come into intimate
contact with her needs, and he in
tends to see that she gets some OF
the benefit of this knowledge.
One OF the first things he did when
he was introduced into office was to
issue a general order that governors
OF territories were to stay at home
and attend TO their duties instead OF
spending the winters in Washington
playing politics and looking out for
their friends. Governors of Alaska
have made Washington their winter
home for years Washington is much
warmer than Alaska, and it's pleas
anter to live here. But the present
visit of Governor Hoggartt to Wash
ington will be his last unless he comes
on emergency business or is sum-
moned.
The next thing that Secretary Bal
linger did was to give notice that al
applications for positions in Alaska
must expect to work and not tc
graft. and must be practical business
men.
When this announcement was made
score of politicians who had tried
everything else and were hoping to get
an Alaskan appointment, gave up in
disgust and went home.
Orders have been issued that every
one who Is given the position of town
, ship trustee, for instance, must work
: at the job as though 1t were any other
: business trust. The pay for this of.
: flee Is $40 day, and 1t has been the
= custom for trustees to work five oil
ten minutes day and then put In
, q bill for whole days work. Thl:
must stop. Bills for days, the whole
= of which was not actually spent ir
= work-and real work at that-will moi
be honored.

MISUNDERSTANDING Ballinger
in the course of the hearing on the
Malheur reclamation project, located
in eastern Oregon, indicated an IN
cIination TO turn this project over to
private capitalists. If they showed
tbe financial backing to carry the
project to completion and build at
reasonable cost, and he further init
mated that where private capital ana
the government both desired to build
a project in any given community
It is his purpose to recognize private
capital, reserying government funds
for localities where private capital
would not enter.
II was shown that private enter
prise contemplate irrigating a much
larger area than embraced in the
government project, and would irri-
gate 1900 acres in Idaho not en-
braced in the government project.
Secretary Ballinger will visit NAL
heur county when he goes west in
June and on his personal observa-
ton and on the showing made to him
before July will determine whether
the Malheur irrigation project shall
be built by the reclamation service or
by private enterprise.

that they intend to survey a line

Live, and love life-not as one tiny atone of an aconic ferment, who some how has fallen heir to the wretched and shivering poverty of patient submission to titful futurity, but as human be- ing, full-fashioned from the hand of Omnipotence-sure of self and of all else unafraid. Live in the knowledge that your inner consciousness is the only creature you will meet in the highway while here. Live-nos as @ Delphic puppet of pagan priest, or prophet of evil mysteriously, inevitable, but as one having soul fired with generous hope, and quick with life. Humanity is learn ing it's lesson-that we are not the ca price of circumstance, but what our own instinctive destiny decrees. Within the sanctuary of every heart stands the silent guardian of self. Others may advise and teach and at times command. but when all is said, that which we honestly believe is the only message we get from the mighty force of our creation, and from each heart must come it's own promise and pledge. Live-and- love, for love is spiritual light and full fillment. Iris faithful mirror of our thought and feeling. Without, love ex- istence is void of purpose or profit, for this and wisdom are one. Deny it's i'm mortality and death but awaits it's due. Love, and you live. And however blows the storm, courage is life's sheet-anchor to windward which stout heart laugh- ingly filings at fate.

WEIGHT OF BUTTER PRINTS

Creamery Association Members Don't
 Like New Law.
 Directors of the Connecticut Creamery Association met at the Capitol recently and talked over the new law requiring the weight of prints of butter to be on the wrapper. They haven't liked the idea of the law, they don't like it now and they hold that it will be impossible to enforce it. Secretary J. M. Williams of Manchester, who had written Cover nor Weeks about the bill, read letter from the governor, who said he con- sidered it would be improper for him to refuse to sign it.
 A vote was passed that it was the sense of the meeting that tho pound prints put up by members of the associa- tion should be marked on the wrappers ''I6 oz."
