While the pres ident as the titular leader of the Re publican party, was placed in office by Republican votes, and expects to be re-elscted by the some sort of sup port, every intelligent Democrat who reads hi3 address will see that he has j presented the case fairly. He has set ; nothing down in malice. Of especial interest to Americans of all parties is that part of his address which is also the larger part which deals with the conditions of to day. Touching on the popular unrest, which is diffused to a degree seldom surpassed in any age, the president points out that there is much exag geration in the statement of the would-be reformers, that many of the accusations hurled against the admin istration and against Congress are untrue, and declares that some of the remedies which are proposed would, if adopted, make the situation worse instead of better. While the "wealth of a few persons has grown in a high degree in the past fifteen or twenty years, he also reminds the country that the average holdings of the gen eral wage-earner have also increased Club Life of Women Is Entirely Different From That of Men By Mrs. CHARLOTTE WILBOUR, English Clubwoman I "RATHER fancy that women's clubs are the outcome of the greater activity drich women in the last generation have at tained. Of course American women go in for clubs much more than English because they have so little home life. IT IS CERTAINLY TRUE THAT WOMEN, AS REGARDS CLUBS, HAVE A DIFFERENT IDEAL FROM MEN. MEN GO TO CLUBS TO GET AWAY FROM PEOPLE, WHILE WOMEN GO TO GET IN TOUCH WITH ONE ANOTHER. The club life of a woman makes her active, but it is because she has become active that she needs a club. There is no doubt that if women would leave their homes more often and COME OUT INTO THE WORLD they would be all the better for it and the world would be all the better for it too. The fault of many women is that they are TOO DEVOTED TO THEIR nOHES and forget that the world is bigger than their four walls, and their ideas get so narrow that they are unable to look at things in a proper perspective. Club life stimulates every faculty, and that means health. If more women joined clubs they would learn to take greater interest in life and in themselves. Why do women look old sooner than men ? Be cause they WORRY TOO MUCH. Club life to a large extent dis pels worry. It is peaceful and quiet and develops every faculty a woman possesses. That is why women become morn ontiful with "club life. and that the level of personal inde pendence and comfort are higher than they were in any previous age. Al though he did not cite any figures for the latter statement, he could have done so if necessary. The advance in wages, the increase, per capita, in the deposits of the savings banks of the country, the rise in the propor tion of the products of our mills which are consumed at home, and the per capita gain in the amount spent for the public schools and in the cir culation of the leading newspapers and magazines show that the people, on the average, are putting aside more money for the "rainy day" than formerly, have more and better schooling for their children, read more and have a larger measure of person al comfort than in any preceding age. While the presidenl says, without naming any names, that the Demo cratic nominee and tne man who is to lead the National Progressive party are not "consciously embracing social ism," he declares that if their prom ises of reform mean anything they mean tae handing over of things to one man which belong to another. As he points out, "both those who, have left the Republican party, under the inspiration of their present leader and our old opponents, the Democrats, n der their candidate, are going in a di rection they do not definitely know, toward an end they can not definitely describe, with but one chief and clear object, and that is of acquiring power through the promise of a change for the better." Milady's JMirror Laughing a Wrinkle Cure. Laughing is one of the very best remedies for wrinkles. The old say ing, "Laugh and grow fat," is certainly a good rule to observe, for laughing is usually accompanied by a happy, care free mind, and there is no better wriu kle eradicator than a contented dispo sition. It is simply wonderful how smooth and soft a face becomes if its owner is given to frequent outbursts of hearty laughter. Smiling alone won't do. Laugh with your mouth and eyes and don't be afraid that it will spoil the beauty of your features, for it will uot. It may in course of time produce dim pled cheeks or chin, but these are a much coveted possession and sure to increase and enhance one's beauty. If ill health Is the cause of wrinkles the best and only thing to do is to con sult a doctor. He will soon find out what the trouble is and will treat you accordingly. And why should you wait until the wrinkles have become so deep and pronounced that it will be a diffi cult matter to remove them? If the wrinkles were occasioned by worry look the trouble square in the face and see if it is necessary to worry to such an extent if there is not one way out of it In nine cases out of ten the trouble will seem much reduced on second sight for no sorrow is so severe that there is not at least one ray of sunshine to be got out of it if one has only the firm intention of finding it Butter In Denmark. Denmark by law forbids the sale or exportation of butter containing more than lfi tur i-ent water. t Vision i Was it a Vision or a Real Experience? By Frank C. Dana I have till recently been a disbeliever In what we call tbe supernatural that is. communication between the living and the dead. I was willing to admit that strauge things may point to such communication, but supposed those strange things to be manifestations of natural laws of which we have not thus far taken cognizance. Recently, however, that has happened to me which has made a convert of me to the supernatural theory. Since "this strange happening to me I have a new theory. It is that, while our bodies are built up on the same general mechanical plan, our souls dif fer widely; that some persons have a gift of discerning spirits and some persons tout of the body) have the pow er of manifesting themselves to mor tals. But I will tell my story and leave the reader to form his own theories. 1 have come to be forty years old without marrying. Recently I met in Venice an American lady, the first wo- "ONE BY ONE I SAW THEM COME ASHORE.' man to cause me to fee! that I wished her to become one with me. I was introduced to her by a mutual friend and from tbe moment I first saw her I felt strangely drawn to her. This feeling grew as we enjoyed that unique city in each other's company. Togeth er we threaded the winding narrow passageways they cannot be called streets on which are displayed trin kets to tempt tourists. We strolled about St. Mark's square and fed the pigeons there. We were rowed on the canals, and at evening under the light of the moon we joined a throng of gon dolas on tbe basin of the grand canal Just off the doges' palace, their occu pants listening to concerts on lantern lighted floaters. This in itself was enough to light the flame of love, but I am sure that with out it we would have loved the same It- was one evening at Lido, a resort near Venice, on the shore of the Adri atic. that we agreed to pass what re mained of our natural lives together Miss Margaret Lawrence sbe was teu years my junior admitted that she. as I, experienced her first love, a soul love rather than a physical love, for neither of as was in the first flush of youth. We spent a part of the winter to gether in Florence, Rome and Naples, each and all places overflowing with that which appeals to persons who love art and, above art. to dwell where dwelt 2,000 years ago living, sentient beings of whom we know much. At the coming of the new year I was obliged to return to America. 1 sailed from Naples one afternoou when the sun stood low over the beautiful bay and with a glass could see my love standing on the sea wall gazing after me till ' distance caused her to fade from my eyes. Several months must pass before she would join me, but in the meanwhile I would be interested in preparing our future home. As soon as I reached America I commenced these prepara tions, but even they could not take away a loneliness that I had never experienced before. I counted the weeks till I should bejinited to one I could not but esteem a companion of the soul as well as of the flesh. Why I felt so toward my Margaret ! was at a loss to know. I only knew that I so regarded her. The spring opened, and with It 1 re ceived a letter from England giving me the sailing date of the woman whose coming meant so much to me I mark ed off each day on my calendar to In tervene between the present and her arrival. I read of the sailing of her ship and was looking forward to our reunion when One night I went to bed very early, having been up the night before work ing yn the furnishing of our home. I had not been asleep more than an hour before I was awakened by a chilly feel ing. I drew more blankets over me. but I could not pet warm. I lay shiv ering, but, being sleepy, passed Into a condition that can only be described as half asleep and half awake. I was again on the Grand canal at Venice with Margaret But instead of the season being summer it was win ter. The stars were shining above, but, oh, how cold: My teeth chatter ed; Margaret's teeth chattered. But despite the fact that we were locked in each other's arms we could not get warm. St. Mark's square was lighted, as It always Is at night, and as I gazed the lights seemed to be slowly sinking. There was a strange look about them, a ghostly look. But they were too far distant for me to see them plainly. They did not light thepalace jr the A Tea Party In the Ocean, the Latest Thing In Summer Fads fc"" m IS-C fill Photos by American PresB Association 1SS CHARLOTTE VAN CORTLAND NICOLL, a New York society girl and a niece of DeLaucey Nicoll, a well known lawyer, is the .originator of a novel method of entertaining guests at her family's summer home at Long Beach, N. Y. It is a tea party in the ocean The idea has attracted wide attention and promises to be widely copied. Hy gienically the fad will win praise from all quarters. It is safe and sane. Miss Nicoll devised a tea tray, a seaworthy craft with a high poop deck, to hold the teacups and commodious deck space forward and amidships for plates of sand wiches and 'cakes The high poop deck protects the tea. and If a wave washes over the bow the success of the affair is not Interfered with since the sand wiches need a little salt anyway Miss Nicoll's tea parties are a regular Fri day afternoon event She and her guests swim for half an hour before the tray is launched. By that time the exercise has furnished an appetite, and the serving of tea in the water obviates coming out for n "bite " lion of St. Mark's or liie campanile They seemed stretched along a huge, dark surface. Then suddenly I heard a boom. It seemed to me the doges' palace, that had stood for centuries reflecting the grandeur of a people who had long ago passed away, had been blown up and the explosion was followed by a wail 1 shall never forget a wail un like any I had ever heard before, a wall of horrible despair. The cold continued, and then for the first time I noticed that the canal in which we were floating was filled with Ice. I had never thought of this sheet of water, fitted especially for summer, as being frozen. Huge cakes towered about ns, rubbing against us. and It seemed at times that they would crush ns or overturn ns into the cold, black water. There were other craft, too. with wild looking persons In them, pulling at huge oars, trying to keep free of the ice or to go somewhere. And I saw persons struggling In the water, all with agonized expressions on their faces. Some of them tried to cling to our frail craft, but our gondolier push ed them off. All was confusion In my brain, for, while I was on the Grand canal in Venice, I was at the same time out at sea. But the most frightful part of this experience was yet to come. The lights that 1 had been watching and which stood on the water's very edge slowly changed their position. Those at one end disappeared, and those at the other were elevated. Then the latter slid down and went out There were shrieks that froze me with horror. I shook myself In my bed and by an effort succeeded In throwing off my trance. I knew that while my body had been in a warm bed my soul bad been elsewhere. Some great catastro phe had occurred, and from the first I connected Margaret with it. I lay shivering, shuddering, till I could lie no longer, then got up and. putting on a warm double gown, walked the floor. I was in an agony of fear about Mar garet She was out on the ocean, and as I thought over the vision In which I had taken part I felt sure that some marine disaster had happened to the ship in which she had sailed. There was no more sleep for me that night, and when morning came I was unable to arise from my bed. Fearing that some disease had at tacked me in the night, I sent for a doctor, who came and said that I was threatened with pneumonia. He treat ed me, and when he came again in the afternoon he found me out of bed. The physical strain had left me, but the mental strain remained. If there had been a catastrophe I had surely been in it. and the shock had remained When in the afternoon I took up an evening paper and saw that the ocean liner on which Margaret was coming to me-had struck an iceberg, but was being towed to land, all of her passen gers and crew having been saved, I knew that the announcement was not correct I knew that an ocean trag edy had occurred. What concerned me was whether Margaret had been saved. Then came a brief period during which the extent of the disaster was not known, followed by the news that the ship had gone down, and but a third of those aboard her had been taken from the boats into which they had been hurried to a steamer and were being brought to port The names of those persons were being telegraph ed. I saw among them the name of my beloved. What did my vision mean? Not that she had died and exercised a super natural power to take me over miles of space to witness that terrible scene I waited eagerly, not only to be re united with her after her terrible ex perience, but for an explanation of my (Continued on page 4) E BEAUTIFUL HOME One of the prettiest homes that has been erected in Clackamas county during, the past year is that of Mr. and Mrs. P.
