Concerning Your Income

Mans notion of pleasure and fun without measure is buying such things
as he cannot afford; to spend his last nickel and get tin a pickle in squander-
ing dough when he can't pay his board. Whatever los pleases his fancy
he Seizes n asks lot the price till he bargain is made; IN title emotion
exhibits his notion O whether h butcher ant baker are patd. The trades
men are pressing and keep his wife guessing to think III a story to keep
them at bay, while e does h spending and giving and lending because he's
the first n to fondle his pay. Perhaps he's weu-meaning and may have a
leaning to buying fine things or his children AM wife, when she could much
better provde if he'd let hr by purchasing things more sustaining to Hfe
He may, in III meekness, confess to his weakness and really intend to be
prudent and wise, and probably munches on ffteen-c cent lunches to try to
make up for the things that he buys. To girls who would marrys some Tom,
or Harry because he a money and spends it like sin, 1 make this
suggestion: Just bring up the question AM make pre- Heterogeneous oncern

POTATOES ARE HIGHER

Portland, Ore, Jan. 29.-The potato
market continues quite active at coun.
try shipping points despite the reports
given out by some of the dealers that
they have quit buying.
Purchasers of choice stock are gen.
orally shown around $2lO@2l5 per
GENITAL at country points with 1925 sales
confirmed for better quality.
At San Francisco limited sales of best
quality Oregon Burbanks are shown at
$2.S5, which means that eliminating the
cost of handling, freight and normal
profits that the f. o. b. price here would
be $2.35 per GENITAL. The amount of stock
sold at this price in the south is com
paratively small, the bulk of the bust
ness in Oregon being around $2.65@2.75,
which means an f. o. b. price in Oregon
after shearing off all handling and 9th
er costs, of $215@2.2O per GENITAL. This
therefore shows that the prices here are
fully as high as those shown elsewhere,
while the wholesale price along the
street is about the same.

DEATH OF MRS. FLIFLET

At the home of her son, Martin Flif-
let, two miles southwest of Turner, on
Tuesday evening, Jan. "a, occurred the
death of Mrs. l.. Fliflet, aged Sc years
She was born in Norway in 1880,
where she was married to L. Fliflet. To
this union were born five sons. Some
time after the death of her husband,
the family immigrated to America in
1884, setting in Wisconsin, where they
resided for Is years; thence to Wash
ington and from there to Turner, about
6 years ago.
Regardless of her age, she always en-
joyed very good health and even up
to the time of her death, seemed well
and contented
She is survived by four sons, two liv-
ing in Wisconsin, one in California, and
Martin Fliflet of Turner
To the sons and tnose who were near
and dear to her, the sympathy of the
community is extended in this hour Of
sadness.-Turner Tribune.

PinpLes Disappear

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to clear away all pimples blotches and
other skin eruptions and that makes the
skin soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, PIN
pies, rashes, black heads in most cases
give way to zemo Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. itching
usually stops instantly, Zemo is a safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only 25c; an extra
large bottle, $100. 1t will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender sensitive skins.

Some Little Stories and
Gossip of the Legislature


AT the beginning Of the "seeond
haf' the two teams in the capitol are
lined up ready for q hot finish. The
bone dry bill came up this morning in
the house and the senate is grinding
away at minor matters waiting for the
house to send in some of the important
measures originating there. Each house
has consolidation committee of its
own, but they are working together, SO
far, harmoniously.
Saturday both houses adjourned and
visited the university AT Eugene, and
came back to work this morning with q
better understanding Of the needs of the
institution as wen as knowledge OF
The splendid work it is doing. After
today there remains but 16 working
days Of the session, so it viii be seen il
will be busy lot Of legislators if the
calendar is to be cleaned up So far
most of the bills have been of local
or minor character and were quickly
passed. There remains the important
bills. The bone dry bill will probably
not take much time as even those who
are personally opposed TO il. and there
are several, win make no objection to

Each legislative session finds him
there, fixture as mucn as if Mr.. Wat

tention of making him u part of the

PROVISIONS DRASTIC

Farewell to shootin snipos; farewell
to last draw on pill
Farewell, long farewell, my Lady
Nicotine, if house bill No. s6S becomes
Il law of the state of Oregon.
Bristling with teeth that are sharp
as needlepoints and long as u seythe,
the bill to prohibit the smoking of ei-
garettes or the giving Of them away has
been introduced in the house and is
on its way to become law of the land.
That the path of this bill through the
house and senate win not be strewn
with roses is q foregone conclusion, as
there are already indications that q
big fight viii be put up to have it
throttled in the committee to which il
will be referred or given knock out

Washington-The amount of whiskey
consumed by the American people in
1916 apparently was greater than in any
previous year since 1909, according to
