WOMAN IS LOST THREE DAYS
Portland, Ore. Woman Makes Re-
markabIe Tramp Through Almost
Impenetrable Wilderness.

Portland, Ore.-Famishing and
wearied by an aimless tramp for three
days and nights through the almost
impenetrabe wilderness near North
Beach, Wash, Mrs. Joseph Marx, six
" years of age and mother of Mamie
Marx, a Portland jeweler. was found
by logger at a point on the Bear
river and taken to Long Beach.
The elderly woman accompanied a
party of friends to Long Beach. Two
days later she made arrangements to
visit the family of Emil Schacht at
Seaview. another seaside resort. Aft
er leaving her apartments In the Ho-
tel Portland at Long Beach Mrs. Marx
boarded a train for Seaview During
a period OF Observation-Disclosures. she
forgot TO inform the conductor OF her
destination. II was not until Chinook,
a station 40 miles away from her start
ing point. was reached, that she made
known her destination TO the train
crew, when the train was brought TO
a standstill and Mrs. Marx alighted
ostensibly TO take another train back.
Refusing all offers of aid and not as
pertaining the distance from Chinook.
she started to walk back to Long
Beach.
When darkness fell, she became lost
after she left the railroad tracks. For
three days the enfeebled wanderer
CROPPED about the woods without food
or drink.
About four o'clock a logger working
on the Bear river about II miles west
Of Chinook, saw Mrs. Marx Chamber
down the river bank TO the waters
edge to set a drink. The logger, i'm
pressed with the oddly of the appear

FARMER DIGS Uf $4,000
Delaware Man Unearths Gold and Sill
yer Coin While Flowing in His
Scrubby Field.

Laurel, Del.-Ashbury Hammond has
dug 1872 900 in gold and silver coin out
Of grave on his farm, the other day,
and all his neighbors are busy pillow,
ing over their own fields in the hope
of a similar windfall.
The local bank has taken the money
and has given Hammond full credit for
it, so that there can be no question of
the value of the find. Hammond was
scrub farmer whose land barely sup
ported him.
This sudden acquisition of fortune
came when his pillow point struck a
brick vault in a sandy hill. He got
a pick and opened the vault AS soon
as he recovered from the horror OF
seeing a skeleton there he went inside
A bag OF coin lay at the skeletons
head and another at his feet. One of
them contained Spanish and American
gold and silver worth $4,000, and sim.
liar contents in the other were worth
$4,000. The coin looked new, al.
though the latest date on any of II
was 1921.

ONE BIG FOOL
But Tie Doesn't Live in Mt. SterI-
ing Nor Read The Advocate.

A man in Connecticut gave a
doctor, specialist in catarrh, $50
to cure him of this common vet
most obnoxious disease.
The specialist gave him bottle
of medicine and told him when
and how to use it.
The fool took the medicine home
took one dose, put it on the shelf
and made no further effort to fol-
low instructions.
Three months later with the
medicine still on the shelf he told
a friend that the specialist was n
fake; that he had paid him $50
and still had catarlh as bad as
ever
This story is told for purpose
HYOMEI pronounce it High O.
mel won't cure catarrh if you
don't breathe it; it will cure ca
tarrh if you breathe it regularly.
Furthermore you don't need to
give catarrh specialist $50 to
cure you of catarrh, for the spec
lalist is yet to be born who can
write a better prescription than
HYOMEI.
W. ). Lloyd, and druggists
everywhere guarantee HYOMEI
TO cure catarrh or money back. A
complete outfit which consists of
bottle of HYOMEI, a hard rub
Der inhaler and simple instructions
for use costs only S1.00. Separate
bottles of HYOMEI if afterwards
needed costs but 80 cents. If you
already own a HYOMEI inhaler
YOU can get a bottle of HYOMEI
at w. S. Lloyd's for 80 cents. No
stomach dosing-just breathe it.

SW0RDFISH IN FIERCE FIGHT
lad Two Men In Small Boat Thorough
Iy Whipped When Others Come
20 Their Rescue.

Boston.-John Henry of the fishing
schooner Alice Palmer tells of a fight
or life he and his dory mate, Adam
Walters, had with a swordfish off the
orges Banks the other day. The fish
was sighted in the afternoon and in q
hort time two harpoons were sticking
nto his back and he was racing away
with the harpOon buoys. Henry and
Walters manned a dory and started
after the buOys.
lnfuriated by the pain of the iron
barbs, the fish turned on the dory. Ii
Grove its powerful sword through one
md of the craft and then the other
while the two men leaped back and
forth to escape the driving blows.
The dory began to fill as the reneat
I'd attacks of the fish opened up holes
and it looked as If the fishermen would
be left entirely at the mercy of the fish
in the water. But second dory from
the schooner swept up and with har
poems settled the fate of the fish and
rescued the two in the sinking dory.

RUSSIA is BUILDING AIRSHIPS
Six Machines Are Being Constructed
and Aviation School VIII
Soon Be Opened.

st. Petersburg Russia is putting
forth strenuous efforts to get ahead
of France and Germany in the field
of aeronautics Funds are being col
lected, air pilots trained and aero
planes constructed. A school of avia-
ton will soon be opened at Moscow.
The Moscow Society for the En-
is endowing an aerodynamical labora-
tory in the university, and also an
other in the Technical school there.
NJ Ulyaninoff. chief of the Warsaw
section of aviation, has invented an
aeroplane, a model of which was ex-
bibited in Moscow last December. The
construction now is nearing compile
ton. A characteristic of this aero
plane is capacity to adjust itself to
changing atmospheric conditions. II is
biplane provided with apparatus for
maintaining horizontal stability and a
landing chassis on a double system.
The biplane may be changed into a
monoplane by removing one of the
surfaces. Among the test results,
which were all favorable, one was con-
sidered especially interesting. The
model, when set going in an inverted
position, invariably righted itself auto
matically, effecting a normal fight.
The first aeroplane on this system
will shortly leave the airship building
works.
Altogether six airships now are be-
'ng built in Russia.

Minneapolis, Minn.-That he try his

request made of Maj Arthur Cass of
the Salvation Army Industrial home
He has had marked success as matri
monial agent in the two years he has
