JOKE VOTE AIDS CAUSE
SCKFRAGE SPEAKER TELLS OP
WASniXGTOX'S ELECTIOX.
Mrs. Mary L. Stevens Telia of Effect
of Political Conditions When
Women llave Ballot.
That woman suffrage carried in ths
State of Washington two years ago
because the men voted for It as a Joke,
was the declaration of Mrs. Mary L.
Stevens, of Paget Sound, at the meet
ing of the Oregon Equal Suffrage As
sociation last night. The meeting waa
held in the Commercial Club conven
tion hall.
Mrs. Stevens declared that the recall
of Mayor Fawcett, of Tacoma, waa a
mistake, and that a movement la now
on foot to recall Mayor Seymour, his
successor. "I expect to go back to
Tacoma in a week or so," she con
tinued, "and If they have the recall I
shall probably be on ths stump again.
I waa on the stump every night when
Mr. Fawcett's recall was pending.
"It Is necessary for you women,
when you come Into your rights. to
take your charters and study them,
and know what you are voting. Be
fore a man 1s recalled he should have
done something to merit it, for it Is
a disgrace.
"When the attempt was made to re
call Commissioner Freeland. in Taco
ma, he said. 'You are recalling me for
doing my duty, and I shall fight as
long as I have atrength.' He came
through with flying colors. The saloon
element was back of his recall- A bill
bad been passed by the Commission
against treating. Legitimate saloons
benefited by the .new law; others did
not- ..
"Three of our officers were recalled.
two remained. Now there are two to
be recalled, one of those recently
elected will remain in office, having
done his duty.
"Your political houses are very
dirty. When women come into their
rights In Oregon you will have many
municipal house-cleanings.
"The word "suffrage1 is unjust. Why
should we not of rlKht go to the polls
and cast our ballot? We are taxed. If
we don't obey the laws we must suffer
the consequences. Why should we not
have a right to say what ths laws
shsll be?"
Mrs. Stevens said Mayor Gill, of Se
attle, would never have been recalled
but for the women's votes.
Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway. who
presided at last night's meeting, said
that "our bachelor Uncle Sam haa been
keeping bachelor's hall long enough."
that "it la high time he went a-court-Jng
Columbia."
"Men of the slower-going and more
populous East will soon have to sit
up and take notice." continued Mra.
Dunlway. "because all the states of the
Pacific Coast are to Join hands and
voices to uphold the Interests of this
Pacific Empire, and bring us into
closer touch with the interests of the
East, which should be mutusl. We do
not believe that the proper matri
monial union is that which makes hus
band and wife one. and the husband
that one. but a union which makes
husband and wife one." and that one
both of them. When men and women
are equal before the law. women will
make better matrimonial bargains.
W M Davis president of the Men
Equal Suffrage Club of Multnomah
County, said women's suffrage has the
indorsement of the State Federation of
Labor. "When I arpeared before the

Supercedes Massage
as Wrinkle Kemover
(The Woman Beautiful.)
Many women regularly visit the
beauty specialist to have their wrinkles
ironed out with the help of hot appli
cations, cold creams and massage. Most
of us realise that there comes a time
when no amount of persuasion of thia
sort will avail. .The process of "wrin
kle removing" is wrong In principle.
Both tbo hot water and the massaging
tend to expand and loosen the skin, bs
sldes softening the muscular founda
tion. The very opposite result should be
aimed at. The tissue should be strength
ened, the skin tightened, so there'll be
no room for wrinkles. The best known
preparation for the purpose can be
made at home by dissolving 1 ox. saxo

THE final performance of "The Girl
of the Golden West." which was
given last night at the EelUg proved
the Savage company a highly capable
organization, possessed of magnificent
solo voices, and having the ability, un
questionably, to present grand opera
distinctly worthy of the qualifying ad
jective, which. In the Instance of poor
productions and inferior singers is
usually made ridiculous.
The particular Individual triumphs
last night were scored by Irma Dalossy
as Minnie, an Italian Minnie, but in
spite of it or rather because of her dash
and brilliance of acting and soft for
eign Intonations, a most charming char
acterization, and by Pllade Slnagra,
whose velvet tenor voice is one of the
most delightful heard In this season of
opera.
Madame Dalossy's voice is a rich full
mexzo-soprano, whose strength and
beauty rang out splendidly against the
full and tremendous orchestration in
the climaxes. She sings with dramatic
fervor and discretion. Her Intelligent
acting of the role was particularly fine
to behold.
Thomas Chalmers was beard again .n
the role of Jack Ranch, the Sheriff, and
it possible sung even more beautifully
than the night before. Lewys James,
whose basso is one of potent and
somber splendor. Is heard all too Infre
quently as Sonora.
Slnagra's rendition of the solo In the
last act, before Minnie enters, was re
ceived with an outburst of applause.
Apparently the audience couldn't wait
to let him know how beautiful the sink
ing was, or else thought opera is just
like melo-drama and must needs have
a round of fist pounding after every
heroic turn.
Throughout, in the last, as much as
in each of the other three perform
ances, the accessories and the care in
staging which attend all of Henry W.
savage's productions were sustained at
a high leveL the atmosphere of reality
and of genuineness was apparent. A
matinee in the afternoon was given
with the identical cast of tha opening
night.
The engagement has been a notable
one, and an educational treat, not only
for music lovers but as well for those
of would-be understanding.
Robert Burns' Birthday Is
Celebrated by Scots
Speaker at Claa Macleay Concert
Admits inability to Master Gaelte
Dialect.
T O celebrate the birthday of Robert
1 Burns, the Scotch poet, who was
born January 25, 1759, a large crowd at
tended the Masonic Temple auditorium
last night and enjoyed a successful
concert given under the auspices of
Clan Macleay, No. 122, Order of Scot
tish Clans. R. D. Rennle, chief, was
chairman.
A bright, entertaining, yet impres
sive, address on "Robert Burns," waa
given by Rev. John H. Boyd. D. D,
pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church. He said: "I have been a Scotch
man for 160 years. It is a long time
since then, but I am Scotch just the
same. I have vainly tried to master
tho lowland Scotch language, that
which Bobble Burns spoke, and I spent
two years in the woods of Northern
Ontario, bent on conquering the Doric.
Then I found that you Scotch have as
many dialects as there are plaids In
Scotland; and that there are at least
two ways in saying two.' One Scotch
man told me 'twa' and another said
tway.' I gave it up." The speaker
then paid splendid, glowing tribute to
the democracy and humanity of Burns,
and referred to the latter as being on
of the greatest poets in the) world.
The musical programme given under
the direction of John Claire Montetth,
was notable for Its excellence and.
proved to be so popular that every
number was encored. The quartet was
composed of Mrs. Elfrida Heller Weln
stein. Mrs. Lulu Dahl Miller, J. Ross
Fargo and Mr. Montelth, with Carl
Denton, piano accompanist. Each of
these vocalists sang solos and Mrs.
Miller and Mr. Fargo sang two duets.
The bagpipers were J. H. Maodonaid
and John Smith. The latter, in cos
tume, also danced Scotch dances.

Since inaugurating the home-builders' discount in Laurelhurst one year ago, we
had abundant reason to be astonished at the rapidity with which the property
has built up with the finest class of new homes in Portland. During the past
year nearly every responsible home-builder in the city has operated in Laurel
hurst, and today there remains less than half a dozen completed residences un
sold in the entire tract. This is conclusive proof that the home-buyers of Port
land appreciate the value of living in the best improved and most desirable res
idence addition in the city. Hundreds of home-builders and investors have
taken advantage of the discounts on Laurelhurst property during the past 12
months. These buyers saved from $150 to $300 each, and Laurelhurst profited
immensely. They are. just that much ahead, for the reason that a lot in Laurel
hurst is as staple as a Government bond, and a far more profitable investment.
We are going to discontinue the home-builders' discount. Laurelhurst property
is too low in price, when compared with values in such additions as Irvington,
Holladay Park and Ladd's Addition. If you are planning on building a home
this Summer in Laurelhurst, why not come in and select your lot while you can
take advantage of the building discount? It won't last long, and when once
withdrawn it will not be restored under any circumstances, as it has accom
plished its purpose. We maintain an automobile service from the office to the
tract, and will be glad to take you out at any time.

Please Read These Two Letters.
The following letter from Mrs. Orville Rock -will prove how nnwisfl
it is for women to submit to the dangers of a surgical operation when it
may be avoided by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
She was four weeks in the hospital and came home snfferinrr
worse than before. Then after all that suffering Lydia E. Fmk
ham's Vegetable Compound restored her health.
HERE IS HER OWN STATEMENT.
xa-m "KHfTi a Twr vp.ars ftsm I suffered
sufferiner worse
V
miiik me to try Lydia
"THERE NEVER WAS A "WORSE CASE."
' Rockport, Ind. There never was a worse case of women's ilia
than mine, and I cannot begin to tell you what I suffered. For over
two years I was not able to do anything. I was in bed for a month
and the doctor said nothing but an operation would cure me. My
father suggested Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; jso to
please him I took it, and I improved wonderfully, so I am able to
travel, ride horseback, take long rides and never feel any ill effects
from it. 1 can only ask other suffering women to give Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound a trial before submitting to an operation."

We will pay a handsome reward to any person who will prove to us
that these letters are not genuine and truthful or that either of these
women were paid in any way for their testimonials, or that the orig
inal letter from each did not come to us entirely unsolicited.
For SO years Iijdia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has been the standard remedy for fe
male ills. No one sick with woman's ailments
does justice to herself who will not try this fa
mous medicine, made from roots and herbs, it
has restored so many suffering women to health,
