That day he got his first letter from
Poppy Ordway. II was heavy and
satiny and II breathed an insidious
perfume.
Also it was brilliant with excitement
and limited at great things.

luck. More later"
February was passing. The days OF
fitful sunlight Tere becoming more
frequent. The camp was hupming
with business. Silent, bent on the
thing in hand. the Indians worked
without need of encouragement.
The slough was bank-full and It's
surface was covered from dawn I'll
dark with a floor of logs slowly drift
ing on every tide downward to the
backwater.
At the slough's mouth huge cradle
was slowly forming in it's braces.
Here the little loading donkey pulled
and footed graphing many-ton tim.
bers with its two drag-hooks. placing
them here and there The mass or
chains covered the bottom OF the
cradle few feet apart.
Twelve men worked continually at
the great marine monster, packing the
logs inside the cradle. carrying the
giant chains up and over as the snug
floor reached the top. lacing the whole
together and at last lifting the center
gently. thus giving to the thing its
likeness to vast cigar.
A timber-scaler, sent down by the
Portland firm, was constantly in at.
tendance.
A shack had been thrown up at the
head of the raft and watch was kept
by day and night.

Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp-RoOt, DR.. Kilmer's Prescrip-
ton, OvercOmeS Kidney Trouble

It is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs to a re-
marlable degree and do tremendous
amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
filtering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some as
sistance when needed. We take less ex-
ercise. drink less water and often eat more
rich, heavy food, thereby forcing the kid
neys to do more work than nature in
tended Evidence of kidney trouble, such
as lame back, annoying bladder troubles,
smarting or burning, brickdust or sedi-
ment, sallow complexion, rheumatism,
maybe weak or irregular heart action,

BILE
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as a kidney and
bladder remedy is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. There is nothing else like it. 1t

PLAN NEW CITY FOR CHINA
Be Rebuilt in the Form Of
Triangular Island.

The recent agitation regarding the
proposed rebuilding of that part OF
Hankow. China, destroyed during the
revolution, has developed into plans
which may make the city ? triangular
island, and for this an English Gom-
pany offered tin July. 1910 to furnish
$5O,000,00O at the close Of the var
then pending.
Commissioner Yam Tu has drawn up
comprehensive plan of improve
ment. One preliminary survey and one
minute survey have been made, and all
preparations for laying out the sites.
digging the new canal and construct.
ing the river bridges are being active.
~ pushed on.
The best part OF the city is now a
strip of land along the river Yangtze,
and this has been turned into conces-
sions. so that nothing can be done in
regard to it.
Next in Importance is the land be.
tween the river and the old market
place. which is the only area on which
Developments can be made. AS the
lower end of the market place is con.
nected with the concessions, no extern
sion can be made on that side.
At the rear is shallow lake, and
without great effort it cannot be
turned into a market.
A comprehensive review of the stu.
alton which recently appeared In the
Chinese National Gazette has met
with widespread approval. IL says:
THE strip of land behind the conces-
sions and the site of the lake are all
distant from the river, hence trans
portatioD is difficult. Chinese com.
merce should extend and expand. and
other undertakings must be effected.
Those in charge of the project
now intend to open a canal beginning
at the upper part OF the Han river.
extending along the rear of the con.
cessions and joining the Yangtze river.
Thus Hapkow will be a triangular
island.
ION every side of II vessels will
be able to cast anchor. and the de-
velopment of industries and COM
merce wip go forward by leaps and

CHAPTER XIV.

"There Is No Law for Genius"
March came in like a lamb with
delicate weather. crystal clear and
opal bright. and with ii came Miss
Ordway. Sandry was glad to see her.
but the critical point was at hand and
he scarce took time to eat or sleep
from the great work of the contract
The mammoth raft was ready. the
largest, according To Daily. that the
camp had ever sent out in all Its life.
and special boat from the Portland
Mills company would lay of Yaquina

That was all. and It was unsigned
Daily told Sandry OF the incident and
showed the warning.
So for the remaining nights the
great raft was lighted from end to
end and four of the Indians patrolled
IL in shifts. armed with rifles and I'M
der orders to shoot at the first sign OF
trouble.
The work went forward rapidly. The
Siwashes. born and raised in the tim.

camp and they needed no driving.
They were a godsend to Sandry In

NO BUREAU OF INFORMATION
Stranger Possibly Resented Fact That
He Had Been Caused Some In
convenience to Ascertain Time.

On one of the recent stormy nights
a man was Fastening home with his
overcoat buttoned up to his neck He
was rather anxious to know what time
1t was, but he was too lazy to unbut-
ton his coat in order to get at his
watch.
Just then he saw man Of we'll
dressed appearance coming in the
distance. and remarked to himself:
'I'll ask this gentleman the hour of
the night and so save myself the
trouble, of unbuttoning my coat"
He perceived that the stranger was
buttoned up just as he was. When he
came up. the man who wanted to know
the time touched his hat politely and
said:
Sir do you know what time it is?''
The stranger paused. removed his
right glove, unbuttoned his coat from
top to bottom, unbuttoned his under.
coat, and finally pulled out his watch,
while the cold wind beat against his
unprotected chest.
Holding up the watch so that the
light would shine upon it, he scrutin.
ized it an instant, and said:
"Yes!"
Then he passed on without another
word.

FOOD FACTS
What an M. D. Learned.

A prominent physician down in
Georgia went through a food expert
ence which he makes public:
1T was my own experience that first
led me to advocate Grape-Nuts food !;
and l also know from having pre-
scribed it to convalescents and other
weak patients that this food is a won

weight, very rapidly.
Il was in such low state that
] had to give up my work entirely and
go to the mountains, but two months
there did not improve me: i'm fact l
was not quite as well as when left
home. My food did not sustain me
and II became plain that / must
change.
Il began to use Grape-Nuts and in
two weeks could walk mile, and in
five weeks returned to my home and
practice, taking up hard work again.
Since that time have felt as we'll and
strong as | ever did in my life.
AS a physician who seeks to help
all sufferers ! consider 1t a duty to
make these facts public"

DRINKING IF YOU

Says glass Of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poisons.

II you wake up with bad taste, bad
breath and tongue is coated; IL your
head is dull or aching; IL what you eat
sours and forms gas and acid in stom-
ach, or you are bilious, constipated,
nervous, sallow and can't get feeling
just right. begin drinking phosphated
hot water. Drink before breakfast, a
glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it.
This will flush the poisons and toxins
from stomach, liver, kidneys and bow
els and cleanse, sweeten and purify
the entire alimentary tract. Do your

system all the previous days poison

To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves and

purities, get from your druggist or
storekeeper a quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate which is inexpensive
and almost tasteless, except for a
sourish tinge which is not unpleasant.
Just as soap and hot water act on

ExTERMINATING COYOTES

It has been a very few years since
this state was over run with coy.
otes, but they have been killed OF
driven away from most sections
since the country has become more
heavily populated. In the western
part Of the state, hoyever, there are
still q number OF the animals which
cause trouble to farmers.
A poison should be selected that
will lose it's effectiveness in a short
time after being placed, so that in
case It is not picked up by the coy.
ote it will do. no damage. Such
,poisons can be boaght from hide
and fur companies. IA the form OF
capsules. The proper sized cap,
sules must be used for different
kinds Of animals. These are plac.
ed in small roll OF butter.
Too much emphnsrs can not be
laid on the necessity Of leaving no
human scent, either on. the poisoned
rolls Of butter or on the ground.
Firearms should never be carried.
II this poison is not eaten BY the
animals at8once or within short
time It decays and will not harm
domestic animals after this time,
although domestic animals I must BE
kept from the poison for q timesaf-
ter % placed
