records established by G. Heitkemper
jr., a jeweler-farmer, of this city.
Aside from conducting his jewelry
business Mr. Heitkemper decided to
engage in the more humble pursuit Of
farming. He put out several acres in
potatoes this spring with the result
above stated The crop was grown
without irrigation on land that was
cc nsdered worthless only a few years
aso. Mr. Heitkemper, who was for
merly resident of Portland. is firm
be lever in the future of this country.
Last year he planted 1000 apple trees
end reports that less than 10 per
cent of the trees have failed to grow.
Most of the loss was due to the fact
that the trees were not planted soon
enough.
Me. Heitkemper has surrounded his
orchard with poplars, which will serve
as n windbreak and will also be use
full as a retaining wall in the event
it should be necessary to resort to

CONGRESSMAN AND
HIS BEARDLESS FACE

Under the head "Whisker Scandal
Gets Huch Worse the Portland Eve
ming Telegram of yesterday has the
following Of interest about Congress
man Ellis minus his luxuriant beard:
Listen, If you see a tall, distn-
guished looking man on Washington
street today man who looks strange
| ly familiar, yet you cannot place him,
! i, is Congressman Ellis.
Alas and alack! The whskers
which for 25 long years have sprout-
ed into a luxuriant cascade which
concealed collar necktie and shirt
front of Representative Ellis have
the whangdoodle sings his lay. This
whiskered scandal of Ellis is far worse
than was at first reported. Months
ago came the word that he had trim
med his beard, and then that he had
whacked off a little on each cheek,
but that the bunch of whiskers on the
chin were as long as the memory of
man runneth not to the contrary. This
report caused CONSERVATION but the
real blow fell this morning.
When Congressman Ellis appeared
in the hotel lobby at the matutinal
hour the only protection his face had
from the world was a mustache and
six hairs on the lower lip. 1t was the
most barefaced exhibition that Ellis
has made since he began cultivating
his beard, a quarter of a century ago.
The ambush behind which the Con-
gressional Countenance has been
masked for generations was missing.
Ellis didn't look like Ellis at all. He
looked more like Congressman Haw-
ley.
on the attention of Ellis being
drawn to his resemblance to his col
leauge from the Second district, he
Immediately announced that he would
try to grow back them whiskers. But,
until the Ellis whiskers are once again
disportng themselves over his face,
his constituents in Eastern Oregon will
pass him by, for they will not recog-
niZe him.
Congressman Ellis arrived in Port
land last night with six other Con-
gressmen who have had a joy-ride to
the Hawaiian Islands, where they
looked at volcanoes, sugar plantations
and ate poi. All! maybe it was the !
difficulty of eating poi with whiskers !
that resulted in the carnage on the |
chin of Ellis--not whiskers on the !
poi, but poi on the whiskers. Tomor- |
row Ellis will catch up with his coll
leauges at Seattle. and after taking |
in the exposition he will fit back to |
Portland to see President Taft's re-
ception.

PEARY IS AWARDED MEDAL.
National Geographical Society Hon.
 ors Successful Explorer.

Washington.-Com Robt. E. Peary has been voted a gold medal by the National Geographic Society, for having reached the north pole.
 The Board of Managers of the Soci- ety unanimously accepted the report of it's committee of scientists. who examined the explorers records sd found them to be corroborative of his claim that he reached the apex of the earth.
 The society adopted a resolution that the question whether ar not any other explorer reached the pole prior to 1909 shall be referred to a sub committee of experts, with authority to send for papers or make such journeys as may be necessary to in- spect original records.
 Of far reaching importance is the action of the society in declaring it's intention to follow vigorously the question of priority in the discovery of the north pole. The scientists will spare no expense that they may be convinced on this point. D. Cook was advised of the society's action.

SOME HARD KNOCKS Woman Gets Rid of Coffee Heart,'

The injurious action of Coffee on the heart of many persons is well known by physicians to be caused by caf- feine. This is the drug found by chem ists in coffee and tea.
 A woman suffered a long time with severe heart trouble and finally her doctor told her she must give up cof- fee, as that was the principal cause of the trouble. She writes:
 My heart was so weak it could not do its work properly. My husband would sometimes have to carry me from the table, and it would seem that l would never breathe again.
 The doctor told me that coffee was causing the weakness of my heart. He said 1 must stop it, but it seemed I could not give it up until I was down in bed with nervous prostration.
 For eleven weeks I lay there and suffered. Finally Husband brought home some Postum and I quit coffee and started new and right. Slowly l got well. Now do not have any head aches, nor those spells with weak heart. We know it is Postum that helped me. The Dr. said the other day, never thought you would be what you are used to weigh 92 pounds and HOW I weigh 158.
 "Postum has done much for me and 1 would not go back to coffee again for any money, for I believe it would Kill ne If I kept at it. Postum must be we'll boiled according to directions on pkg, then it has rich favour and with cream is fine"
