Changsha. There it was found that the roads out to the mines were so bad that the boilers had to be taken apart and put on small carts. Delay, waste and vexation ensued.
 Some months ago the writer in- formed by an American dealer in rat tan furniture at Canton that the busi- ness had been ruined by the phenom- enal rise of freight rates on the Paci- fic, the ton being determined by meas urement in this class of goods. Even while the dealer was speaking, export CTS of similar product from Hong kong were solving the difficult prob lem of knocking down their rattan furniture. They now ship ten pieces to the ton instead of four as formerly. This solution might or might not have been devised from this side of the Pa cific. Again, to one not on the field the reason why dictaphones promise to succeed while adding machines do not may not be at all obvious.
 A rich harvest has been reaped by those Americans who, after 1914, learned the requirements of cheap windowglass for China. The require ments for the blue dyes that give the throngs of China their predominant , color have been met by Americans only since the beginning of the war.
 Adaptation is the soul of foreign trade. Who in America would think of the need of special pedal arrange ment for the sewing machines to be used by women with lily feet? China offers fortunes to inventors and pro- motors of machines suitable for. the substitution of cheap labor. China s industrial needs will never be learned from this side of the Pacific,
 The methods of the Standard Oil Company and the Singer Sewing Ma chine Company, with their large sales forces on the spot, are admirable ex- amples of adaptation to requirements. The bright calendar of the former company, with it's symbolism of Amer ican-Chinese harmony, it's suggestion in the carelessly tumbled profusion o1 Socony products, it's gaudy tin lamT (for some time distributed free), an6 it's simple reading matter makes ar instantaneous and universal appeal The easy payment plan of the Singer Company, and the establishment ot sewing schools where instruction i! given free of charge have resulted II large sales.
 Need of intimate contact with tht Chinese has been met by Germany anC by England in the establishment o schools in Shanghai and Hankow fo the teaching of business Chinese, practice that might we'll be followe, by others in the effort to supplement knowledge of China and the Chimes that even long residence in the coun try leaves too scanty.
 F'irst-hand knowledge of the peopl and the country is the first require
 nent of healthier Chinese -Americal trade. We have an incomparable ad vantage in China's goodwill, ant should follow it up with an intelligen adaptation to requirements.

NO STOMACH AIN,
 GAS, INDIGESTION IN FIVE MINUTES
"Pape's Diapepsin" is the best antacid and stomach
 regulator known.

Really does' put upset stomachs in order-"really does' overcome ,in- digestion, dyspepsia, gas, heartburn and sourness due to acid fermenta- tion in five minutes-that-just that makes Pape's Diapepsin the largest selling stomach antacid and regulator in the world. If what you eat fer ments and turns sour, you belch gas and eructate undigested food or water; head is dizzy and aches; breath foul; tongue coated; your in sides filled with indigestible waste, re- member the moment Tapes Dia- pepsin'' comes in contact with the stomach all such distress vanishes. It's truly astonishing - almost mar velous,a and the joy is it's harmlessness.
 A large fifty-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin is worth it's weight in gold to men and women who can't get their stomachs regulated. It belongs | in your home-should always be kept handy in case of a sick, upset stom ach during the day or at night. It's the quickest, surest antacid for the stomach in the world.-Adv.

HAIR COMING OUT?

Dandruff causes a feverish irrita- ton of the scalp, the hair roots shrink, loosen and then the hair comes out fast. To stop falling hair at once and rid the scalp of every par ticle of dandruff, get a small bottle of Danderine at any drug store, pour little in your hand and rub it into the scalp. After a few applications the hair stops coming out and you can't find any dandruff-Adv.

ss4O annually.
A bright young man about 10 en-
bark on a career may hesitate between

Cattle Market Gets
Serious Bump With
A Very Good Supply

PORTLAND. June l5.--stampeded
Is the right word to describe the con-
dition OF the general cattle market ht
North Portland for the day. although
for some offerings prices were un-
changed. The general market lost 25
q 35c per hundred pounds for the
day but loss of 81 was shown In
bulbs.
A large per cent of the offerings
in the cattle market recently has con-
sister OF medium to good and fair to
medium cows and heifers. In these
elassificatlons no price change was
shown for the day and the same is
true OF common to fair ateers and
good TO choice steers.
Twenty loads OF California cattle
came forward to the yards for the
days offering and this perhaps was
the biggest factor in forcing the
sharply lower figures.
