COMMON LISLE HOSE RECOMMENDED BY STAR Adele Blood Says Walk in Life for Girls Is the "Cotton Stocking Route" Until Earning Capacity Can Provide Better. ! ""'':f:l !

VMEN should wear lisle hose" sounas like a line dropped by accident from one of the big department store advertisements, doesn't it? But far be It from such. It Is the strange device" writ large on the chatter -banner flaunted by the lovely and gracious Adele Blood, playing the title of "Everywoman" in Walter Browne's modern morality play of that name at the Heilig this week. Not that Miss Blood follows her own advice and wears lisle hose. She does not. But for that matter he who gives advice never heeds it. The woman who prat tles longest about eugenics never had a baby, and the one who tells us how to dress 'em, t feed 'em and raise 'em. usually has her children dressed and fed and raised by her husband's mother. The man who lives in a flat can tell all about gardening in the suburbs, and the fat woman can tell you how to re duce. Actress Competent Adviser. Hence it la only fitting that Adele Blood, wearing silken hose of finest texture, should say warnlngly: "Stay by your lisle and cotton stockings, sis ter." You know there's the same subtle difference between a hose and a stock ing that there is between a "creation ' and a dress. But, while Miss Blood has silk hose to burn now, time was when she encased her good-looking ankles in 'two-bit cotton stockings and was mighty glad to have them. And she washed her few pairs in a wee hall bedroom and mended and tended them carefully and often. That was six years ago, when she was living in New York on $33.33 and an odd mill or so (I never could do fractions) a month. She told me all about it yesterday In her dressing-room between acts of the matinee. At the J33.33 thing I stared. "Why, according to investigating committees, it can't be done," I ven tured. "Well, It Just can be done, if it has to be, and decently, too," she asserted. "I guess I ought to know.

PARTY IN WAGON CRUSHED Wahkiakus Man and Wife bie While Driving Home From The Dalles at Midnight Forest Fire Is Cause of Fatalities. THE DALLES, Or., Aug. 12. (Spe cial.) Arthur H. Smith, who operates a sawmill at Wahktacus, Wash., 15 miles north of this city, and his wife were almost instantly killed, and D. E. Cox, a rancher employed by Smith, was seriously Injured about 12 o'clock last night, when a large tree fell on them while they were driving home from The Dalles. Cox. who was so badly crippled that he was una"ble to walk, dragged himself about a mile and a half to a farmhouse and re ported the tragedy, a few hours la ter. Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Mr. Cox passed yesterday in this city. They left here on the 6:20 o'clock ferry in the evening for Grand Dalles, from where they started on their homeward drive. They were proceeding slowly along the dark road about two miles from Wahkiacus when a large tree, which had been burned out at the bot tom by a forest fire, swayed and top pled over across the road Just as the three persons in the wagon reached that particular spot. The Smiths were almost instantly .killed, and Cox was terribly crippled. Charles Smith, of this city, a brother of the slain man, left today for the scene of the accident. Mr. and Mrs. Smith are survived by a daughter and son, aged 12 and 8 years, respectively. Commissioners' Act Indorsed. WALLA WALLA, Wash., Auar. 12. (Special.)

"It was Just after the San Fran cisco earthquake," she went on, "and I found myself dependent absolutely on myself. I had attended a school of elocution and had a fine little acting bee buzzing in my bonnet.. And I had Just 100. I guarded It like a miser. On the train I wrote letters to every manager I'd ever heard of in New York, telling them I was coming, and that I would consider offers. I just knew that my arrival would be the signal for a grand free-for-all managerial fight over who should star me. But the days glided into weeks, and the weeks Into months and only one letter came. It was a curt note from Henry W. Savage to tell me that he never saw amateurs and for me to return in 10 years. It is a source of pride to me that at the end of six years he sent for me to play this role in "Every woman." Cotton Stocking Route Proper. "But why the stocking chatter," I queried. "Just this. Those three months of waiting, in New York, and observation since, has convinced me that the walk in life for any girl until her earning capacity is a large one, is the 'cotton stocking route."

But it is the craving for need less luxuries that breeds the spirit of discontent A girl making pitifully small wages will go without food in order to save for silk hose Their poor little tummies may be empty, and their coats shabby, but their silk hose will peep gaudily out to excite envy in the heart of some poorer sister.

"Wifehood and motherhood," she said, simply. payers at an informal meeting today and an advisory board was recommen ed. The question of increasing the size of the building and also the cost was only touched on, though this was the reason for the meeting1. It was proposed to indorse the Commissioners' action in hiring a local architect, but a tangle of motions ensued and it was never put.

Declaration Made That Lents Widow Does Not Comply With Re. , quirements of Act. Stung- by continued adverse criti cism of the action of Juvenile Judge uaiens in reiusmg a widow's pension to Mrs. Elizabeth E. Brown, of Lents, who is employed as a telephone opera tor, Chief Probation Officer Mcintosh, in the absence of the judge on vaca tion, yesterday made an extended statement defending- the action of Judge Gatens and the recommenda tions in this particular case of the special "case" committee of women- Judge Gatens refusal was based on the report or tnis committee. A great deal has been airl n Hm , widow in question being a worthy woman and one who really needs the assistance which fact Is admitted, but legally she is not entitled to help under this act, said Mr. Section 5 reads: "It is the nnmnB nri intention of this act to keep the children, to which it Is applicable, together under the guidance and control nf thotv mntr,A. and that the mother shall make & home for ioe cnuaren." Since Mrs. Brown cannot comolv with this section of the law, there are other ways by which she can receive the necessary as sistance, one of which is application to the County Board of Relief. The money all comes from the same source. If she is away all day working in a telephone office. ow can sne, as proriaea in section 5, keep the children under her guidance and con trol? She sees them for a short while in the morning and evening, but she cannot, from the very nature of things, know what they are doing during the dav whil ihn 1 away. The Jaw does not say under the guidance of the grandmother or sister, ! though worthy, but under the guidance of the mother. If a pension were allowed this particular widow, others that have applied would ex pect the pension on nearly the same grounds. For instance, a schoolteacher earning $105 per month, a clerk $100 and still another at $75 a. month were refused because they did not come within the in tent of the law. Are we to disregard the iaw ana give pensions ror no other reason ; than that the applicant is a sond and ! worthy woman? It is admitted by all reasonable persons! that this widow or any other widow can- i not support herself and two children on tii.ou, tne amount she would receive if en titled to the pension, nor does the -widow's pension provide for the support of any other members of the family than the widow and ner onuaren. The case committee is not to blame that she would receive no more than $17.50 per month. Some of the women of this case com mittee, which is composed of one or more members of the different women's organ izations of this city, were instrumental In securing the passage of this pension act. wniie proDaDiy tneir critics did nothing toward its passage; and surely it they worked so hard for It, they had sympathy for the widow who Is striving to keep her family together. They still have sympathy. jufc mey iuubl Keep wunin tne law. They know they cannot conscientiously grant a pension unless the apDlicant comolies witii each section of the law. The object of the pension, in the first place, was to help destitute families and was not Intended for families who would apply merely from the fact the pension bill was passed, and they thought they could get extra money. The ' real object of the law is to prevent the breaking up of the fam ily by placing the children in differest homes or institutions and to enable the mother to stay at home herself. JOHNNY DUNDEE IS VICTOR Jack AVTiite Knocked Oat In Ninth of Twenty-Round Fight. LOS ANGELES. Auir. 12 J ohnnv Dundee, the New Tork featherweight, knocked out Jack White, of Chicago, in the ninth round of their scheduled 20-round bout in the Vernon Arena tonight. Dundee led in every round. Dundee's lightning-lie tactics seemed to dazzle White from the start. He floored White in tha third and again in the sixth. Both times White came up promptly, but soon became badly punished . about the mouth. In the fourth round White showed a slight flash of form, for the first and only time. A left hook, cleanly planted, brought the Chicago boxer to the canvas for the last time. Referee Charles Eyton Im mediately raised the New Tork man's arm. White tried to regain his feet, but there was no count. MISS CAMPBELIi EASY VICTOR Seattle Girl Goes Down to Defeat Before Portland Girl's Strokes. SEATTLE,. Wash..

With the visit to the lake of Secre tary of the Interior Lane August 22 and the International Phytogeographic So ciety September 6, this season is certain to exceed all previous ones, both in the number of tourists and the place Crater Lake has taken in the interest of the outside world.

Those who abhor sticky, greasy, shiny, streaked complexions should re ligiously avoid creams, powders and rouges these heated days. There's no need ror them, anyway, since the vir tues of mercollzed wax have become known. No amount of perspiration will produce any evidence that you've been using the wax. As it is applied at bed time and washed off in the morning, the complexion never looks like a make-up. Mercolized wax gradually takes off a bad complexion, instead of adding anything to make it worse. It has none of the disadvantages of cos metics and accomplishes much more in keeping the complexion beautifully white, satiny and youthful. Just get an ounce of it at your druggist's and see what a few days; treatment will do. Use like cold cream. Another effective Summer treatment heat tending to cause wrinkles and flabbiness is a skin-tightener made by dissolving 1 "oz. powdered saxolite in pt. witch hazel. Its use (aa a face bath) leaves no trace. Adv. STOP! READ! ACT! We Must Make Room Several carloads of BUSH & LANE and VIC TOR pianos and player pianos now en route.
