PENDLET0N PAYS VISIT To CITY

Another aged Indian with a roman
tic past is a guest on the local res

his life history might will be stuff for
the bards and poets. His name, as
given him by his tribe, is Him-ma-
tum-se-lu, which means Sunny Eye,
but since his people have been made
subject to another and stronger race
he has been known as George Amos.
He is a full blood Nez Perce and his
home is on the reservation In Idaho
set aside for that nation. He arriv-
ed here a few days ago to visit his
nephew, Paul Showaway.

CRAZY GREEK BREAKS
LOOSE FROM FRIENDS
TERRIFTES RESIDENTS
ON EAST ALTA STREET
Officer Stansberry Has Narrow Es-
cape From Insane Man Who Was
Armed With Wicked Looking
Knife-Is Finally Captured.

For the second time within a week
Henophon Harachan, the crazy Greek
VINO last Friday was captured by
Chief of Police Gurdane after a terrif-
ic battle, last night broke loose from
the custody of his countrymen and,
after terrifying the residents of West
Alta street, was again captured, but
not until Officer Ed Stansberry had
had a narrow escape from his insane
thirst for blood. At the time of his
previous arrest, he was armed with
an automatic revolver but last nigh,
his weapon was a wicked looking
knife.
Tarachan. according to the county
authorities, had been perfectly ra.
tionai and a model prisoner while ir
the county Jail. Accordingly, wher
two of his countrymen promised tc
take him back to his native land and
to leave with him on the night train
he was released from Jail and turned
over to the other Greeks.
Breaks His Bonds.
He was taken to the little Greek
house on West Alta street and left
bound hand and foot while his custo-
dians came up town After their de-
parture, ne used his maniacal strength
to break his bonds and, securing the
knife, left the house and began
prowling about the streets.
A number of residents noticed him
walking stealthily up and down the
streets, peering in the windows of
houses and in his hand he carried his
murderous weapon. Frank Griggs
hastily telephoned to officer Stans-
berry who lives nearby.
That officer responded Immediately
and approached the man, not recog-
nizing him as the same with whom
Chief Gurdane had had the desperate

ECZEMA BROKE OUT ON BABY

When my baby was two months
old, she had eczema and rash very
badly. l noticed that her face and
body broke out very suddenly, thick,
and red as a coal of fire. l did not
know what to do. The doctor ordered
CASTLE soap and powders, but they
did no good. She would scratch, as
1t itched, and she cried, and did not
sleep for more than a week. One
day saw in the paper the advertise
ment of the Cuticura Soap and Cuti-
cura Ointment, so l got them and
tried them at once. My baby's face
was as a cake of sores
when l first used the Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment, | could
see a difference. In color 1t was red
der. l continued with them. Ny
baby was in a terrible condition. l
used the Cuticura Remedies (Soap
and Ointment) four times a day, and
in two weeks she was quite well. The
Cuticura Remedies healed her skin
perfectly, and her skin is now pretty
and fine through using them. / also
use the Cuticura Soap today, and will
continue to, for it makes a lovely
skin. Every mother should use the
Cuticura Remedies. They are good
for all sores, and the Cuticura Soap
is also good for shampooing the hair,
for l have tried it. / tell all my
friends how the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment cured my baby of eczema
and RASH" (Signed) Mrs. Drew, 210

LOST FAITH IN WHITE MAN
Eskimo Tested Efficacy Of Telephone
Scheme, and Realized He Had
Been Deceived.

An interesting story is told regard
ing the efforts of an Eskimo to con-
struct telephone line. The Eskimo
came into possession of a piece Of wire
of considerable length and new hav-
ing seen wire before he asked PROBES.
sor Mcmillan Of the Peary north pole
expedition what 1t was and what 10
was used for. He was told that the white
man strung 1t on poles stuck in the
ground and a voice talking to an IN
strument at one end could be heard az
the other end. After some search the
next morning the Eskimo was found
to be engaged in telephone construc-
ton work of his own. He stuck soma
sticks in the ground and hung his
wire on them. He held n end OF
the wire to his mouth and talked to
It at the top of his voice. Then he
ran as fast as he could to the other
end and held the wire to his ear with
the expectation of hearing his own
words repeated.
When he failed to hear any sounds
the expression IN his face revealed
his opinion OF his white friend.

Fire Alarms by Telephone

automatically releases any connection
which may be established on the line.
Three styles OF fire boxes are fur
nished. Fol- residences, stores and
places requiring only one station. q
handsome mahogany box Is placed in
any desired location and operated as
indicated above by breaking the glass
and pushing the button.
For factories, hotels, schools and
large buildings a transmitting device
enclosed in an iron case is placed in
any convenient location in the building
and may be operated by push-button
as I'm he residence type, or connected
with q thermostat system, whereby the
fire alarm signal would be automatical-
ly sem in upon the operation of a
thermostat in any part of the building.
Where the thermostat equipment is
used bells are installed upon each floor
OF the building which give a local alarm
at the same time the fire alarm is being
transmitted to headquarters.
For small cities having no fire
alarm system, an iron street box is
provided which may be placed at n
telephone pole or In any desired public
place and connected with any operating
telephone circuit.
"The fact that this fire alarm sys-
tenn operates on lines which are sub
jected to a test many times a day rem
ders his method of giving fire alarm
service particularly reliable. In the
automatic system of telephony the fire
department is usually given a low num-
Der which is called practically instan-
~taneously by the transmitting device of
the fire alarm box, and the time re-
duired TO transmit the signal is the
same at all hours of the day or night"

Considerable more than one-half Of Phos-
plate of Potash.
Analysis of Grape-Nuts shows: Potassium
and Phosphorus (Which join and make Phos-

DR.. Geo. w. Carey, an authority on the
constituent elements of the body, says: The
gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely
by the inorganic ~cell-salt, Potassium Phos-
phate phosphate or Potash. This salt unites
with albumen and by the addition OF oxygen
creates nerve fluid or the gray matter of the
brain. OF course, there Is q trace OF other
salts and other organic matter in nerve fluid,
but Potassium Phosphate Is the chief factor
and has the power within itself to attract, by
it's own law OF affinity, all things needed to
manufacture the elixir of life."
Further on he says: THE beginning and end
OF the matter Is to supply the lacking principle,
and in molecular form, exactly as nature fur
nishes 1t In vegetables. fruits and grain. To
supply deficicncies-this is the only law Of
cure"
The natural conclusion is that II Phosphate
of Potash is the needed mineral element In
brain and you use food which does not contain
It. you have brain flag because its daily loss is
not supplied.
On the contrary, IL you eat food known to
be rich in this element. you place before the
life forces that which nature demand for
brain-building.

broken down by lack Of nourishment.
