FIRM TONE IN
LIVESTOCK MARKET

PORTLAND. Feb. 2O.-It was an
extremely firm livestock market that
greeted the trade at North Portlan J
on the opening day of the week. There
was a new high record received for
cattle for open market transactions
and a load from Culber sold at $3.50,
the highest price on ecord at North
Portland for steers.
There was another small run OF
cattle reported in the yards over Sun
day. and the trade was quite eager
bidders. While there were some ex-
cellent steers available and besides
the $3.50 sale, there were loads sold
from 1886 upward.
There were really no No. 1 quality
cows available in the yards during the
day, and the best took available sold
at IS for a limited supply.

REFLECTIVE AS A REMEDY
FOR CONSTIPATION.

Among older people the various
orRans of the body have a tendency
to slow up and weaken. and this is
usually first manifest in a pronounced
inactivity OF the bowels.
Good health is dependent on regu-
larity In this important function;
whenever there Is h slightest indi-
cation of constipation a mild laxative
should be taken to relieve the conges-
ton and dispose of the accumulated
waste. cathartice or ~purgatiyes
should not be employed. however;
these are too violent in action and
their effect is only temporary.
A mild laxative such as the com
bination of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin. known as DIR. Caldwelis syrup

gentle in it's action. bringing relief In

ESTABLISHING
OF THRIFT
A WELL ORGANIZED PLAN TO
DEVELOP THRIFTINESS BY
THE ANNUAL OBSERVANCE
OF THRIFT DAY.
THRIFT DAY, FEBRUARY Sd

There is at the present time be.
/ ing conducted in this country a cam
paign which is worthy of the deep
! est consideration by every man, wo-
man and child, because upon its
successful operation will depend oar
increased national, community and
individual progress. 1t is the move
ment which has been designed TO
bring into greater evidence and
practice everywhere the inestimable
quality of thrift-a quality which
has more to do with ultimate sue
cess than any other one factor.
Now is the opportune time for
every individual to enlist in the
movement for a thriftier nation Our
country has entered upon an era
Of prosperity which promises to sur
pass any We have hitherto enjoyed,
and while good times in themselves
do not of necessity mean that thrift
will be practiced to larger extent,
yet it is at such times that individ-
uals are better able to give time
and attention to the deyising OF ways
and means for their continuance.
Large earnings do not necessari-
ly Of themselves represent thrift 1t
is fact borne out by reliable sta
tistics that while our country is the
wealthiest country in the world, we
have lower percentage of individ-
ual savings accounts than any other
Of the foremost nations. 1t is also
often illustrated in our everyday as
sociations that many citizens with in |
comes five times those OF the aver
age worker are far less constructive |
and beneficial to the up-building OF
he community than their fellow-citi-
zens of more modest earning capaci-
ties.

w. F. SHERWOOD
RETURNS FROM VISIT.

W. F. Sherwood returned Tuesday
from a visit at various places in
the northwest, stopping first at Walla
WaIla to visit an uncle, and from
there to Granger to see an old friend
who is engaged in the brick busi-
ness, and from there to North Yaki-
ma where his father is now living.
While at Yakima he ran out to Selah
and called on our old friend, T. J.
Brown who is editing paper at
that place. He says T. ]. is both
looking fine and doing well. After
spending some little time at Yaki-
ma, he went to Seattle whrre he
has a number of relatives and fr!
ends. While there he called on A
S. Soule who is a bookkeeper for a
big concern at that place. From
there he went to Kent. Wash and
Bemerton. While at the latter place
he had the pleasure Of seeing a
number of large .battleships, and
numerous other things Of interest on
the coast He also visited Portland
and Silyerton, Oregon, returning
home Tuesday evening, bringing with
him Mrs Hetty Wreay of Silverton,
an old time friend of his mother,
who will make a visit here; then
go on to visit relatives in the east.
Mr.. Sherwood is like all other
Payette people who come back after
being away for a while. Other plac-
es seem to be thriving and look
good, but Payette looks the best
after all.

was remembered by dinner party
at the Luther home at noon. All the
members of the VIM. T. Sherman
lost were invited and committee
rom the Relief Corps to assist in
the affairs OF the dinner. Mr.. and
Mrs. W. P. Ackerman were also
present. To say they had good
time would be putting it mildly. We
dc not suppose there was any blood
shed, but we will venture to say
there were several battles fought and
exp riences related that took place
more than so years ago. 1t is nice
to see these old vetrans get to
gether and have a good time. There
are not many of them left to tell
the. story of the bloody war and
the hardships of so years ago.

COMPANY | BOYS
RETURN HOME
ARRIVE HOME ON LAST FRI
DAY AFTERNOON WELCOMED
BY BIG CROWD--GLAD TO
GET BACK.

The Boys OF Company I, who
arrived home on the special trair
Friday afternoon, were greeted by
a large crowd of relatives and
friends. They are all looking fine
and seemingly feel as good as tn J
look. They are glad to get home and
We are glad to have them home. In
a conversation with first Lieutenant
S. II. Fitch We learn that the boys
had some real army experience. He
says it was very strenuous for the
boys at first but they all went at
heir duties with a firm determina-
ion to be second to none. Each line
Of drill was taken up separately and
perfected; then another was taken up
and in few months they were not
outclassed by any from the stand
point of drill or military discipline.
Not one of the boys in Co. I was
sent to the guard house, which GER
tainly speaks well for our boys, not
only as good soldiers but from a.
moral standpoint. We are glad to i
have them home again and Il should |
not be forgotten that many of them
gave up good positions whsn they
left for the border and We feel that
the people of this community should
give them the preference when in /
need of help.
