Mrs. Robert G. Dieck, president of the Visiting Nurse Association, Is one
of the many Portland matrons who is taking an active interest in the ball
of Thursday night, which will be the brilliant social festivity of the Rose
Festival. The Visiting Nurse Association will be one of the worthy bene
ficiaries of the evening. The other organizations to be aided are the Catho

I have doctored for it, but do not get
much relief. I have a severe headache
every few days and the constant, ter
rific throbbing in the front of my head
nearly drives me insane.
"Can you tell me if these headaches
are caused by the blood pressure? I
can always hear the blood throbbing
through my veins. I am a Southerner
by birth, and have always been called
high-strung.' So far as I know I have
no other ailment that might cause the
headaches."
Reply.
The throbbing in your head may be
due to increased blood-pressure, but the
only way to determine this point is by
having the pressure accurately taken.
A young woman of your age is not
likely to have an increase of the blood
pressure sufficient to cause headache.
Normal pressure for your age should
be about 115 to 120.
This throbbing In the head may be
entirely due to the condition of your
nervous system. This is a symptom
that is frequently present when the
nervous system is more or less ex
hausted, or when one has what is called
neurasthenia.
Indigestion and constipation will
sometimes give rise to the symptoms
you are troubled with. Eye-strain
might account for your headaches. In
fact, stomach disturbances and eye
strain are very frequent causes of
throbbing headaches. It might be well
for you p have this trouble thoroughly
investigated, for constant headaches
take a good portion of the joy out of
life.

A large audience attended the Gil
lespie commencement exercises in the
Lincoln auditorium last Friday night.
The first part of the programme con
sisted of a story told by Lillian Down
ing, and readings by Carol Mitchell and
Hallie Allen. Before presenting the
diplomas Mrs. Emma Gillespie, instead
of advising the graduates, as is cus
tomary, addressed the audience In part
as follows:
"Some one has said that, to develop
the individual to its highest and best,
is the first requisite of any vital re
ligion. It is also the first requisite of
any vital education and we believe that
a thorough course in expression along
the line of speech is thus broadly and
vitally educational.
"We believe In a simple and nat
ural method ofvolce-buildlng by means
of which defects of speech are cor
rected, lung capacity is increased,
breath control is gained and the voice
Instrument is freed, strengthened and
rendered responsive to the touch of
thought and emotion."
Mrs. Gillespie outlined the course of
study of expression and its benefits In
many ways to the lives of those who
make a study of the right use and
modulation of the voice.
The second part was a dramatic in
terpretation of "The Littlest Rebel.'.' by
Miss Eanfleld, a post graduate of the
school, and an artistic drill,- "Feast of
Roses," by 12 young women.
The music, furnished by the Lincoln
High School orchestra and the Harmony
Quartet, was highly appreciated.
Albina Women's Christian Temper
ance Union will meet this afternoon

More Illusions Collapse.
A STRANGE, unhappy, sleepless
night Marian spent at the Velli
quette with her hostess. Hardly had
the belated cab drivers stopped pass
ing the place than milk wagons began
rattling through' the streets below.
Nor could Marian wrench her mind
away from the thought of weary little
actresses laboring over the washing of
their costumes in neighboring rooms.
She had never heard of such a thing.
It was one of the sharpest shocks her
ideas of stage life had ever received.
The bitter penury of managers who
forced their employes to do sueh
menial tasks in the small hours of the
morning, aftertheir toil on the "boards,
was almost beyond her comprehension.
As yet she had much to learn -of the
woeful Indignity of certain classes of
labor under the iron heel of grasping
employers. Before her divorce the
term "working girl" had been a mere
name; It had meant little to her. She
had never been close enough to this
stratum of life to understand its dark
undercurrents.' -
To her, chorus and show girls, even
in the cheaper productions, had sug
gested lives of comparative ease, of
butterfly gaiety, of light-hearted fun.
Tonight, with the rubbing sound that
had come to her ears from the other
room, the illusion had collapsed. She
was beginning to see and understand
that she had been greatly mistaken.
Next day, as she and the Ingenue
entered the elevator to go out for
breakfast, a number of girls entered
the lift, bearing newspaper wrapped
bundles.
"Laundry night. Just as I thought,"
whispered the ingenue to Marian, indi
cating the bundles. "They have to do
th Job at night," she added a moment
later, "to ive .them. chance to dxy."
fcffedd.
The Shredded Wheat Company,
It's a sight to see some of their rooms
plastered up with clothes hung up to
dry over night."
"I can't see why they do it," ex
claimed Marian.
A girl will do a whole lot rather
than go hungry," answered the other.
Lots of these girls are supporting
their mothers, or their children. They'll
stand for nearly anything before they
strike. Ifs not a very easy thing to
pluck dollars off the money tree. The
plums are mighty few."
I m beginning to realize It, an
swered Marian soberly.
A girl who sets out to make her
living has got her work cut out for
her, all right," was the reply. "For
every job on the stage there seem to
be a hundred applicants. Where on
earth they all come from I don't know.
They all think they've got the mak
ings of wonderful actresses and they
keep on year after year, with the piti
ful hope that some day they'll land on
top. That's why so many of the man
agers will take all sorts of advantage
of a girl, knowing that they'll stand
for It. I've seen stage managers
swear at girls like they were so many
animals. And the girls stood right
there and took it. It's the wild, crazy
hope that some day - luck will come
their way and make stars out of them.
It's tragic Finally they get tired out
and quit it all, and et married. Then s
when their real trouble begins," fin
ished the speaker with a grim laugh.

Strawberries Recipe.
TRAWBERRY Bavarian cream is a
close rival to strawberry ice cream
and is useful to serve aa a "company
dessert," when ice is not available.
Soak one-half box (or 2 tablespoons)
granulated gelatine in one-half cup
cold water until thoroughly swollen.
Crush and strain enough ripe berries
to give 2 cups juice. Mix this with
one cup sugar or more or less accord
ing to the sweetness of the berries, re
membering that it must be sweet
enough to stand the dilution due to
cream and gelatine later. When the
berries are very sweet and inclined to
be lacking In "character," add 1 table
spoon lemon juice. Dissolve the soaked
gelatine completely over. hot. water,
strain and combine with the sweetened
strawberry Juice. Chill in cold water
and when it begins to thicken, fold In
the whip from 2 cups, cream; or, if a
richer mixture' is liked, from 3 cups
cream. Mold and chill. Serve when
firm.
For service the mixture may be
poured direct Into individual sherbet
cups or tall glasses, left until firm, and
"topped off" with a little plain whipped
cream for garnish. Or a fancy or rftig
mold may be- used for "English serv
ice." Or the mixture may be allowed
to remain In a bowl until firm, and
then plied Irregularly in tall glasses,
or in "cases" of different kinds. Or
individual fancy molds may be used.
in hot weather more gelatine, even
as much as 3 or 4 teaspoons, may be
needed, but the less gelatine is used
the more delicate will be the texture
and flavor.
This mixtures makea a good filling
for cream puffs, fancy cakes, and
"charlottes." If enough lemon juice is
added to give a distinctly tart flavor -to
some of the "half-set" mixture it may
be reserved to use as a dressing for
fruit salads of the sweeter types, or
as a garnish for a plain jelly, or
junket.
Simpler and less expensive is a straw
berry whip in which 1 cup crushed
and sieved berries and 1' cup sugar are
gradually Incorporated with 1 stiff
beaten egg white (with or without 1
tablespoon soaked and dissolved gela
tine) until stiff, enough . to pile into
serving glasses. The above should
give at least 3 cups of whip.
Economical housekeepers sometimes
make a "combination mixture," when
cream is scarce, using part whipped
cream and part egg-white with the
crushed and sweetened berries and so
achieving a strawberry dessert that
is in character and cost about half-way
between the two given above.
When berries are in full season a
strawberry sherbet is the most eco
nomical and delicious of frozen desserta.
Combine 1 pint berry juice, 1 pint very
heavy sugar syrup and the strained
juice of a lemon with 2 teaspoons
soaked and dissolved gelatine, or 1
whipped egg white, and freeze in the
usual way. -

PASTRY
COQKS
USE
The patrons of our first class hotels and restaurants are exact
ing they demand the best. Women go where the pastry and cakes
are noted for their excellence. Men are attracted by hot bread and
biscuits when fresh and moist and light
The pastry cook with a reputation uses K C Baking Powder
because he knows that results are certain; every time everything
is as good as his best
Then, too, with K C Baking Powder he can mix the various
kinds of batter before the rush of the meal begins and bake as
needed so that every order goes to the table fresh and hot, yet the
last ne DaKes are just as good as the hrst
The reasons behind these' reasons is that K C is
really a blend of two baking powders. One commences
to give off leavening gas as soon as moistened. The
other requires both moisture and heat to make it
active. Dough or batter will remain in a partially
leavened condition for hours, and when put in the oven,
will come up as light as if mixed a moment before.
- For cookies, pancakes, doughnuts and the like,
which cannot all be baked at once, K C is indispensa

He Would Be Disabled

"Last June I severely sprained both
ankles," said Mr. Gilmore, In speaking
of his case, with the result that I
could hardly move about. ' While suf
fering great pain and distressing weak
ness of the ankles, I learned of Akoz
about two months after my accident.
I used the Alcoa compound on my
ankles with surprising results. The
second application ended the pain and
then the ankles gained strength so
rapidly that at the end of two weeks
I was able to walk without a cane. . At
