Baptist Brotherhood Holds
ROuSing Meeting Tuesday

The Brotherhood of the First Bap-
tist church had a rousing meeting
Tuesday night, President G. Ed Ross
presiding, Seventy five men partook
of the supper provided by the wo-
mans committee of which Mrs Theo.
Roth was leader. Several visitors were
present among them w. P. Elmore
of Lin county and II. E. Cross of
LClackamas county, who are members
of the legislature. These other visit
ors spoke briefly. The principal
speaker was Dr. S. ]. Reid, the evan
gelist,
From the brotherhood meeting the
men adjourned to the evangelistic SER
vice and sat together in a body.
The auditorium was well filled and
the large audience listened attentive
ly to thoughtful sermon on consci-
ence
Conscience is a universal faculty
You cannot get away from conscience
Conscience will never allow you to be
satisfied in wrong doing. Jesus Christ
can give you a conscience void of Of
fense towards God and man." Dr.
Reid said in a strong appeal made to
let Christ into the life to control both
conscience and heart.

EASY TO MAKE THIS
PINE COUGH REMEDY
Thousands of families swear

4 x x x < x x x x !: x 4 X i
You know that pine is used in near
lly all prescriptions and remedies for
coughs. The reason is that pine con-
tains several peculiar elements that
have a remarkable effect in soothing
and healing the membranes Of the
throat and chest.
Pine cough syhups are combina-
tons of pine and syrup. The syrup
part is usually plain sugar syrup.
To make the best pine cough rem
edy that money can buy, put 2h
ounces Of Pinex in a pint bottle, and
fill up with home made sugar syrup.
Or you can use clarified molasses,
honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar
syrup. Either way, you make a full
plnt--more than you can buy ready
made for three times the money. 1t is
pure, good and very pleasant-chil-
dren like it.
You can feel this take hold of a
cough or cold n a way that means
BUSINESS. The cough may be dry,
hoarse and tight, or may be persist
enly loose from the formation Of
phlegm. The cause is the same-in-
famed membranes-and this PineX
land syrup combination will stop it
usually in "a hours or less. Splendid
too, for bronchial asthma, hoarseness
or any ordinary throat ailment.
Pinex is a highly concentrated com
pound of genuine Norway pine ex-
tract, and is famous the world over
for its prompt effect upon coughs
Beware of substitutes. Ask your
druggist for '21s ounces of Pinex"
with directions, and don't accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso-
lutte satisfaction or money refunded.

Salem Buyer Gets Pool;

hlid-winter sale and scheduled de-
livery of 10000 pounds of wool, 1919
CLIP, was consummated at Albany last
Saturday by Clifford W. Brown of this
city. Mr.. Brown pays So cents per
pound for the fine wool in this lot and
81 cents for the coarser quality. The
deal marks the closing of the Linn
County Farm Bureau pool formed last
year and originally representing 100,-
600 pounds of the staple; however,
many members Of the pool sold inde-
pendently until the 10000 pounds rep
resented their holdings.
According to the Salem shippers, the
pool cost the Linn codnty growers at
least cents per pound, as the spring
l0l9 quotations on wool at one time
were 57-42.

HUSBAND IN LOVE
WITH THE MAID,

/ feel as though 1 could perhaps
receive the advice of some OF your
kind readers by relating my troubles
for them.
Nine years ago I married n man
earning a small salary. Through
my persuasion he has advanced him
self until now we are perfectly sat
isned with the income. About one
year after our marriage we went to
live abroad. and I was very happy,
and my husband tried all he could
to have everything made pleasant
for me. Then the war broke out,
and the living conditions becoming
so unbearable. I was compelled to
leave the country with my two-year-
old child.
My husband could not then accom-
pany me. but stayed behind to make
arrangements for the storing of our
furniture, etc. We were in constant
correspondence, and after q lapse OF
three months he followed me. I
never was suspicious of my husband
until seven months ago. when l
found him always writing letters.
When I inquired to whom. his an
swer was. "A business proposition"
This answer did not satisfy me, SO I
looked through all his papers and
found to my surprise that he was
writing love letters to our former
maid and she to him.
Several of these letters I have
read, and I must say felt ashamed
Of myself at their contents. When
l demonstrated with him he prom
ised to discontinue his correspond
ence as soon as the household ef-
fects. which she had stored in her
name. had been put in his name.
But he still continues to write. He
even sends her small sums Of
money. has suggested to her that
. she emigrate to this country.
cannot understand his idea of
writing to this girl, although
know that he has been untrue to me.
To begin with, she Is very ignorant
and has very common way OF
talking. To insult a person Is a
pleasure to her. Still 1t seems that

attention OF the reader throughout.
The thing least expected Is always
happening, and IL is not until the
final paragraph Of the very last

II Is the story Of tontine-like
