WAR STAMP SALE WILL
CONTINUE COMING YEAR

SAN FRANCISCO. CAL-Total
cash receipts from the sale OF War
Savings securities from the beginn-
ing Of the movement in December
1917 to December Is, 1919 amount
to $1.l2S,4S0.731, according to a

tary Of the Treasury R. c. Letting

mas sales of War Savings Stamps and
Treasury Savings Certificates this
year will considerably swell the to-
tai when the books are finally closed
for the year on December 81.
During the summer, sales Of War
Savings Stamps dropped somewhat
below the high mark set during the
war and Immediately after the arm
istice, but for the last five months
there has been a steady monthly in
crease in the amount of these Sc
curities sold, which, in the opinion
Of Treasury officials, prophesies
continual investment in Government
securities by the general public
throughout 1920.
The 1920 War Savings Stamp will
be larger than the 1919 stamp, and
will be carmine in color, bearing the
head of George Washington rather
than Benjamin Franklin's bust. The
Thrift Stamps will be the same, as
will the Treasury Savings Certifi-
Gates, which are issued in denomina-
ton of s10O and $1,000. War Saw
ings Stamps and Treasury Savings
Certificates of the 1920 issue will
mature January 1925.
Prices of War Savings Stamps, be-
ginning at SAP for January, will in
monthly to s4.23 for the last
month of the year, Treasury Savings
Certificates selling in proportion.
Both the Treasury Savings Certifi-
Gates and the War Savings Stamps
pay four per cent interest compound
ed every three months.
The Treasury Department strong
" advises the exchange of full War
IL advises the exchange of full War
Savings Certificates, that is, twenty
stamps affixed to a folder, for Treas
ury Savings Certificates, which are
registered, thereby protecting the
holders. For this reason 1918 and

will be available for exchange for
War Savings Certificates of 1918 and
1919.

Rev. NOyes and Family Are

Federated church last Friday even

for their new home at Wapato, Wash.
here Rev. Mr.. Moves has taken the
church p~astorate.
Nearly $50 friends of the family

Local Hospital Will Close
Soon After First of Year

The Heppner Sanatorium will soon
be a thing of history. 1t will soon
be classed along with the things
which nee were but are no more.
So announce the management of the
institution, DR.. c. c. Chick and DR..
A. D. McMurdo, who say that the
hospital has long been a financial
burden and they have grown weary
Of carrying the load.
So shortly after the first of the
year, or just as soon as the last pa
tient is able to leave, the doors of
the Heppner Sanatorium will close
and after that people will simply
have to stay we'll or take a long
journey to an outside hospital.
Local doctors have long been
handicapped, when their business is
viewed from the surgical stand
point. The housing facilities of the
old sa%natorium have been poor and
the overhead has been high. Nurses,
good nurses, have been hard to get,
and the doctors say, a great deal
harder to keep.
About a year ago considerable
interest vas shown by local people
Hhen the idea of a fine, modern hos
pital was suggested. But shortly
following the suggestion, other
more timely building propositions
came in and claimed the financial
support Of the business men and the
hospital was passed up for the time.
Once the town is without a hos
pital, it's need will be more appar-
ent, and it is not unlikely that a
move for a new building will be put
under ay in the not far distant fu-
ture.

There is a Heap of Solace in Being
Able to Depend upon a Well
Earned Reputation.

For months Heppner readers have
see the constant expression OF
praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and

done in this locality. What other
remedy ever produced such convinc-
ing proof of merit?

Several years ago l VAS more or
less subject to bladder trouble. The
kidney secretions were unnatural and
too frequent in passage. During
these spells, my back felt weak and

Doan's Kidney Pills l got over the
bladder trouble and my back felt as
strong as ever"

USED DIAMONDS AS COUNTERS
Miners Who Found Them In Brazil In
1925 Considered Them as Merely
Pretty Pebbles.

The news from Brazil that a large
company has been formed to work the
diamond mines Of that country on a
more scientific scale In an effort to
make Brazil once more an important
factor In supplying the worlds most
popular gem, recalls one Of history's
richest jokes.
Diamonds were first discovered in
Brazil In 1928. But with their pockets
full Of diamonds, the discoveries were
unaware for two years that they had
made a discovery.
Miners washing for gold In the Mlnas
Geraes district picked up pretty peb-
bles from time to time. They thought
them worthless and used them for
counters In their card games. II they
had no money they gambled for the
pebbles, winning Of losing, in blissful
ignorance, a kings ranso In diamonds
on the turn of a card.
A penniless adventurer drifted into
the gold fields In 1927. Some Of the
miners staked him one evening to Q
handful Of pebbles that he might sit
In at a card game. The others played
with ~listless interest, but the new
conner played with care and skill. He
had seen rough diamonds In India and
knew what the pebbles were. As q
result he won all the pebbles around
the table.
He did not remain In the fields TO
wash for gold. but next day hurried
to Rio Janeiro and took ship for Lis
bon, where he sold his pebbles for a
fortune and lived happily ever after.
The rush of diamond hunters to Bra
I'll which followed rarried back to the
miners In Minas Goraes the first init
nation that they had been rich for two
years without knowing 1t.

Live Oregon editors report to the
state college press service a grow
ing trade with farmers in advertising
farm produce and odds and ends
about the farm" Such failures as
occur are credited to the unwilling
ness of the advertiser to sell his stuff
on the crcest Of high prices for fear
it Will go still higher. Then. when
the demand is of. he sticks a little
t o liner in the want ad column and
kicks because the stuff isn't sold.
