WAR ST|RS CALIFORNIA
SALEM MAN RETURNS FROM
SIGHTSEEING TRIP TO NEIGH
BORING STATE.

"War is hell and no mistake, said
A. G. Magers, of this city, who has just
returned from a sightseeing trip in
southern California. Mr.. Mayors states
that there is but one word of interest
in Los Angeles at resent and that
word is war. He states that the entire
populace of that city is up in arms
over the Mexican conflict with the
United States, and that the recruiting
stations are being, flooded with men,
young and old, who want to take a
shot at the greasers.
In San Francisco, Mr.. Mayors says,
he saw auto trucks, mules and men
loaded with supplies in a line which
strung out for over a mile on Market
street. The Salem man was within a
few steps of woman with baby in
her arms who tainted away when her
husband marched by in the long line.
Mr.. Magers states that many pitiful
things were seen when the troops as
sembled. Mothers, wives and sweet
hearts congregated around the great
Preside and great excitement prevail.
ed when the soldiers swung away to-
ward the shipping yards where long
trains waited to take them to the
border.
That Mexican, like the proverbial
dog with bad temper, will bite the
hand that feeds it, was actually dem
onstrated in Los Angeles, declares Mr.,
Magers. Mexican men with families
who owned land near Los Angeles and
who were making good living by
raising garden truck and selling it to
Los Angeles people, were seen trooping
toward the border to take up arms
against the people who enabled them
to eke out a living. Mr.. Magers states
that he saw several hundred Mexicans
leaving Los Angeles for Mexico when
war news began to spread and that he
was told they were leaving simply be-
cause they wanted to fight the Amer.
leans.
Paul Marnach was with Mr.. Magers
in the south and he states that Salem
peace and quiet look good to him.

The hair is more exposed and hence
more liable to accumulate dust and dirt
than any other portion of the body.
In spite of this the hair receives, as
a rule, the least attention and no real
effort is made to keep it healthy.
If the dandruff germ is allowed to
work unmolested and the scalp becomes
erusted with dirt aeeumulations, one
may expect the hair to die and fall out.
There is no cause for surprise in this
phenomenon; it is natural and happens
in every instance where ths care of the
hair and scalp is overlooked.

the loss Of hair and permits healthy,

YESTERDAYS HAIL WILL
FINISH PRUNE CROP

County Fruit Inspector C. o. Con-
stable said yesterday afternoon that
the present cold and wet weather would
probably put the finishing touches to
the Italian prune crop. The prunes
have been falling off in considera BILE
quantity and it was hoped that warm
weather would prevail and save some
of them. The crop of petites, which
only forms a minor part of the valley
acreage, is practically unhurt. Peaches
are 'unhurt. Crop, conditions from other
sources indicate that the present rains
have done the grains a great amount
of good. The cold weather has kept
back the growth and sent the roots
deep, which gives prospect of abundant
harvests next fall.

RELIEVES
STOMACH TROUBLE
A Prominent Physicians Advice.

Eat good foods and plenty of them.
Dieting, in many cases is almost Grim
inal. Get back to normal To do so
you must have the proper quantity of
nourishment. You need it for brain or
physical work. Probably there is moth
ing the matter with your stomach.
Ncutralize that acid and your stomarh
trouble will end at once. Neglect may
mean ulcers if not cancer of the
stomach. Do not take patented medi-
cines or pepsin tablets for dyspepsia.
Simply take a, neutralizer of acid. De-
cidedly the best neutralizer is ordinary
bisurated magnesia. 1t is inexpensive
and you can get it at any drug store
Take teaspoonful in quarter glass
Of water after each meal. The relief
will be immediate.o
