it was but the fluanting of a red flag

Senator Barrett of Washington

Senator Dimick of Oregon City,

CURING CATARRH
Accept Our Advice and Try This Rem
edy mt Our Risk.

Catarrh is disease of the mucous
membrane. The mucous membrane
is, one may say, the interior lining
of the body. Catarrh therefore may
exist in any part of the system.
When the catarrhal poison attacks
the mucous membrane, Inflammation
and congestion are produced and ma
ture fails to throw off the accumulat-
ed poisons. The, organ which has
been afflicted ceases to perform its
proper function as nature intended it
should. The result is, complication
upon complication, which may lead to
other even more serious Affections.
We honestly believe Rexall Mucu-
Tone will do wonders toward over
coming catarrh 1t is made from the
prescription of an eminent physician
who made long study of catarrh, and
his great success with this remedy
was an enviable one.
We want you if you are a sufferer
from catarrh in any form, to give
Rexall Mueu-Tone a thorough trial.
Use it with regularity and persistency
for reasonable time, then if you are
not satisfied, come back and tell us,
and without question or formality we
will hand back to you every cent you
paid us. This is certainly the fairest
offer that any one could make and
should attest our sincerity of purpose.

FAT FOLKS FAVOR
Home Mixture That Takes OH the Fat
RapidIy-Cause No Wrinkles-NO
Stomach Ills and Requires
Neither Dieting Nor
Exercise.

Too much fat is both uncomfortable
and dangerous, but usually fieshy
people prefer to put up with its in
convenience rather than punish them
selves with the tiresome exercising
usually prescribed, or endanger their
health by taking the so-called cures"
and patent fat "reducers,"
This self-sacrifice of comfort and
health to over abundant fat is entire
ly unnecessary, however, as Mrs.
Luella Bigger tells us there is a home
receipt that is far superior in every
way TO anything money will buy for
reducing superfluous. flesh. 1t is said
this simple mixture will take the fat
off man or woman at the rate of at
least couple of pounds week with
out even causing wrinkles Moreover
1t does not disturb the stomach, but
is good thing for the system, clear
ing away pimples, and, best of all, it
does not interfere with the diet You
can use it and at the same time eat
whatever you like. This receipt is as
follows:-h ounce Marmola; R-
ounce Fluid Extract Cascara Aroma
tic and 3 Y ounces of Peppermint Wa
ter. Get these ingredients at any
drug store, mix them together at
home and take one teaspoonfuI after
each meal and at bedtime.
Mrs. Bigger, as is we'll known, is a
famous beauty expert, and whatever
she recommends is sure to be found
eminently satisfactory.

through hole in the vail" In a
livery barn small hole had been
cut in the wall Three taps was the
signal for sale, the money would
be deposited on the inside OF the hole
by the customer and then two bot
ties OF beer would be showed out At
no time did the customer have an
opportunity Of seeing with whom he
was doing business.

the plan. Standing on the inside he

Fish and Game Laws at Spirit.
wood Lack Upheld BY the
Court

jamestown, N. D., July 21.-The
complaints of violating the game and
fish law at Spiritwood lake have fin
ally attracted attention of the state
game warden, and at the instance of
Deputy Game Warden Olaf Bjorke
warrants were issued by the states at
torney. and Sheriff Romer went to
Courtenay Tuesday, and placed liver
Skaar and liver Anderson under ar
rest charged with the offense. They
appeared in Justice Bigelow's court
for a hearing, being represented by
Atty. Arthur Knauf.
From the testimony 1t was shown
on June II. there was "a report cur
rent at the lake that parties were
using net to catch fish, although no
trace Of the net was found during the
day At night George fuckers launch
with w. B. Default and Bert Proctor
and Henry LaBrasch made a quiet
trip around the lake, but at first
could discover nothing, although the
boat went as near shore as possible.
Still unsatisfied the party secured a
search light and made another excur-
sion looking for the poachers. who
were believed to be at work. The
second trip was more successful, and
two row boats were found on the
northwest shore in a remote locality,
and in dropping the anchor of the
launch "a seine, 100 feet long and five
feet high was pulled up. This seine
was confiscated and turned over to
the justice Of the peace. In the two
boast were found overcoats.
In the testimony 1t was shown that
liver Shaar was not with the boats
that night.
Anderson admitted having been out
with the boat that night and having
landed on the north shore. He de-
MED using the seine, but said that he
and 81 son Of liver Skaar had heard
voices on the shore. They had been
drinking considerably and had with
them two quarts of beer and bottle
Of alcohol.
While the evidence against Ander-
son was circumstantLal only, 1t was
believed to be sufficiently strong to
warrant a fine being imposed by
Judge Bigelow. the penalty of SO
and costs. amounting to some $54 ad-
ditional. was imposed upon Ander-
son. 1t Is said that the case will
be appealed to the district court.
