Is your sidewalk clear of snow,
Mr.. Man?
Then you ought to keep it so
If you can.
Get you out at peep of dawn.
Put your spats and rubbers on;
In an hour it will be gone.
Try this plan.

One thing makes us glad, and that's.
Mr.. Man,
That we need not put on spats;
We would plan
If our walk lay under snow,
From when Autumn breezes blow,
To just simply leave it so,

We'd like to have you know,
Mr.. Man,
That we never shovel snow,
Though we can.

Are the rains that make us wet,
And to stop them we've not yet

WHERE THE WEST BEGINS

Arthur Chapman, to the Denver Re-
publican.
Out where the smile dwells a little
longer,
Where friendships grasp is a trifle
stronger,
That's where the west begins.
Out where the sun shines a little
brighter,
Where the snow that falls is trifle
winter,
And the bond of home ties are a
wee bit tighter,
That's where the west begins.
Out where the skies are little bluer
Where friendship ties are trifle
truer,
Where there's music in every stream
let flowing,
Where there's more of reaping, less
of sowing,
That's where the west begins.
One where the world is still in the
making,
Where fewer hearts with despair
are breaking,
Where there's more of singing, less
of signing,
Where there's more of giving, less
of buying,
Where aman makes friends without
half trying,
That's where the west begins.

Acid StOmachs
Are Dangerous

Excess acid in the stomach is
dangerous and it frequently con-
tributes to the seriousness of
ulcers when present. The acid
from its corrosive nature has a
natural tendency to destroy the
mucous lining of the stomach it.
self. No one Intentionally swaE
lows hydrochloric acid, but it is
often present in large quantities
and causes food fermentation in
the stomach which so frequently
follows the eating of the dainti-
est and most tasty foods or the in
diligence in any form of alcoholic
stimulants, including beer, wine,
liquors, etc. This fermentation
causes pain, uneasiness and dis
comfort because of the acid, which
burns like a red-hot iron, and the
formation of gas which distends
the stomach, causing shortness of
breath and palpitation of the
heart. The trouble being entirely
due to the unnatural condition of
the stomach contents, and not in
any way to the fault of the stom-
ach itself, physicians have adopted
with marvellous success the plan
of neutralizing the acid and stop
ping the fermentation by means
Of simple antacids taken after
eating. For this purpose there is
nothing better than plain bisur-
ated magnesia which you can get
from any druggist. Take tea

diately after eating or whenever
discomfort Ia felt. The immediate
relief following the use OF bisur-
ated magnesia is striking proof of
the contention of medical men
that failure to digest food proper
ly is almost invariably due to the
acid condition of the food con-
tents, and I'm no way the fault OF
the stomach or vital organs.

Here's Dyspepsia Remedy That

Own Druggist.

Here's a Dyspepsia Remedy That
Is Really Guaranteed BY Your
Own Druggist.
One of the greatest successes in
the sale of medicine has been
achieved by Mi-o-na, the standard
dyspepsia remedy, and its sale IL
increasing so rapidly that many
druggists have hard work to keep
a stock on hand. 1t is very popu-
lar with bankers, ministers, law
yers and others whose business or
profession keeps them closely con-
fined, while those who have
brought on Indigestion through
irregular eating, worry, or other
causes, have found relief in this
reliable remedy.
Mi-o-na comes in tablet form
and Is sold in a metal box, espe-
cially designed for convenience in
carrying the medicine in the
pocket or purse. 1t is pleasant to
take, Is instant relief for belch-
ing of gas, sourness, heartburn
and other miseries attending in
digestion. 1t should help any
case, no matter of how long a
standing. This remedy has been
SO uniformly successful that all
druggists are authorized to sell
Mi-o-na under a positive guaran-
tee to refund the money IL It
should not prove entirely satisfac-
tory. We doubt II any other dys-
pepsia medicine ever had a large
enough percentage of cures 20
that it could be sold in this man.
ner. A guarantee like this speaks
volumes for the merit Of the
remedy.
There is no time like the pres
ent to do thing that ought to be
done. II any one has dyspepsia,
today is the best time to begin
curing It by going to Crown Drug
Co., 1892 Pacific ave., or any
leading druggist in this vicinity
and buying a box of Mi-o-na on
this money back guarantee.

SINGING A SONG FROM HEART
OR MOUTH.

Portland is strong on the made
in-0regon dope. Every little while
the Rose City breaks forth in a
chorus the refrain Of which always
reads the same, Buy It In Oregon"
And the song is a good one. It Is so
good that every man, woman and
child in Portland ought to stop long
enough In the singing to practice the
precept which is being preached. The
market reports in the Portland daily
press record the arrival of many car
loads Of grapes from California.
At the same time down here at
Grants Pass we are sending other car
loads OF grapes, than which Califor-
mia never produced q better article,
Into the far eastern market. II Port
land would eat grown-in-O Oregon
grapes for two weeks there would be
no need Of sending q single bunch Of
them to the east. As It Is, the grow
ers OF the Rogue valley are bringing
q few thousand dollars from the east
for the 10 or IL cars she will be able
to ship this season. and Portland, on
the other hand, sends the money
right out of the state again by giving
her patronage to the California viii
culturist There ought to be some
way to so cement the interests Of Ore
gon, II the burden Of the Portland
song Is right-and 1t is-that while
there is an Oregon grape or an Ore
gon apple or an Oregon peach upon
the market Oregon people will eat
none other.
