through some grateful person who has

so uniformly successful, because rheuma-

Rexal Rheumatic Treatment, however,
is made from a very successful prescrip-
ton largely used by prominent physi

effects gives us such implicit confidence
in it that we should be very much sur
prised to learn of any case in which its
use did not prove highly beneficial. But
we leave nothing to chance when we offer
it to you, because you buy it In every
case with the distinct understanding that
If it does not satisfy you-if 1t does not
relieve the pain and inflammation and

Septic tank No. 2, on the F. II.

tion at the council meeting Tuesday
evening. Mayor Johnson stated that
Mr.. Wallace, tenant on the Carter
property, had complained that the
tank was leaking badly and needed
repairs. City Engineer Walker, in
whose charge the tank was placed
last spring, declared that the tank
was all right; that 1t leaked but lit
tie and that Mr.. Wallace was divert
ing the flow from the tank to irri-
gate his land and had no kick COM
ing. He called on Street Commission
er Fraley to corroborate his state
ments, which he did. Councilman
Werth, however, stated that he had
visited the tank and believed it to be
in very poor condition. He asked
that the matter be referred to the
city council as a committee of the
whole. After some further talk this
was done on motion of Councilman
Cunningham.

Chief of Police Porter asked the

ordinance covering the speed of au-
tomobiles. the side of the street upon
which they should drive and the mat
ter of permitting rigs to stand in the
narrow part OF Main street between
the Plaza and the Presbyterian
church. Mr.. Porter said he realized
that it might be necessary to increase
speed to climb the hills after turning
the corners, but that it was not nee
essary to exceed six miles per honr
when coasting down to approach the
curve, and he recommended the limit
be placed at that speed. Councilman
Beaver suggested that the matter OF
leaving autos standing on the wrong
side of the street, the use' Of ma
chimes without mufflers and the mat
ter of permitting the leaving of
teams standing in the narrow part
of the street be all included in the
proposed ordinance. On motion the
whole matter was referred to the or
dinance committee in conjunction
with the city attorney.

Lay Main Over Hill On Nutley

At the meeting of the city council
Tuesday evening Councilman Gowdy
of the fire and water committee asked
the council to grant them authority
to make Investigations as to the cost
of changing the water pipes to ona
24-inch pipe over or around the Crow

inch pipes to 24-inch pipe, and to-
lay the 10-inch pipe taken up over tha

to supply those in the vicinity of the

mated the cost of the proposed
change at $4,000 and believed ie
could be met with the $4,000 now in
the water fund and the proceeds
coming in from water rentals during
the time which it would take to get
ready to do the work. They believe
that it would increase the flow of

TALK TO BUSINESS MEN
Tom Richardson Made Earnest Plea
Tuesday Afternoon and Told
Some Plain Truths.

Tom Richardson, of the Oregon
Development League, talked to a
number of the business men of the
city at the Commercial Club rooms
Tuesday afternoon on matters of vital
import to the city. Mr.. Richardson
is noted for his ability to pull COM
munities out of the dumps and put
them in the way of doing things. He
usually commences by telling some
plain truths and Tuesday was no ex-
ceptton to the rule. He said some
things which struck home and were
heartily applauded and declared that
no man who did not care enough for
his town to make sacrifices for it was
of any value to the town. He urged
the development of the city along the
lines advocated by the Tidings, name
ly, the building up of a resort and
home city, which he declared could
excel any in the United States; that
it would take work. money and sacri-
fices to do it, but it would be worth
the while.
Mr.. Richardson is one of the men
who does things" along his line. He
is altogether too big a man for Ash
land to secure to handle such a move
meht, were he available, but his ad-
vice is well worthy of serious consid-
Grafton.

Wants $1829.50
Overtime and Salary

]. c. Barnard, one of the employees
at the city lighting station. put in
bill against the city for $1,S29.50,
all but about $50 being for over
time. at double rate, put in since
December last. In reading the bill
Recorder Gillette stated that If the
bill was passed there would be bills
of similar nature and amount from
the other two men employed at the
plant. This bill is apparently the re-
suit of the shaking up at. the plant
because of the fact that the state au-
thorities recently got after the city
pretty sharply for working its en-
ployes over eight hours without over
time pay as required by bill passed
by the last legislature.
The council was inclined. to laugh
at the bill and laid it on the table,
after Councilman Werth had suggest
ed that it be charged to Mr.. Butter
field, and Mayor Johnson had sug-
gested referring it to the sanitary
committee.

be there. The Ashland Ice & Storage
Company has set aside a room for
the storage of stuff for the exhibit
and everyone is urged to leave their
