It is intensely dramatic, full of action, and gives Miss Fletcher a splendid acting role. She is pastmlstress in the art 01 repressed emtion and gives a notable portrayal.

Ware Are Sent to AU Parts of United State and Some Foreign Countries With Label. The largest exhibit at the Manufac turers' and Land Products Show is the magnificent display of the Oregon Cit Woolen Mills. This concern made the flags on the battleship Oregon, the float at the fair made of frulta -and vegetables, and supplied the decora tions for the Clackamas County booth. H. D. Mitchell, in charge of the ex hibits at the exposition, says: "Our Navajo art craft products include In dian blankets, bathrobes, plllowtops. hats and caps, floor rugs, Mackinaw coats, Navajo sport coats, waterproof woolen shirts, bed blankets, table cov ers, shawls and draperies. These are manufactured at Oregon City from the raw wool to the finished article. It U the largest woolen mill this side of the Mississippi River, in point of produc tion, and the largest in the United States in the Navajo art crafts. 'All the goods are sold first hand under our name with the label reading Oregon City Woolen Mills, Oregon City, Oregon," so that every article that is sold has our own label on it, and every article reads 'Oregon City, Ore gon.' Further, we are represented di rect from the mills to. every state in the United States, also Canada, Alaska and Honolulu, placing the merchandise label before consumers in the above territories. The goods are of the high est class made in the world. "The Panama-Pacific International Exposition blanket. featuring the Panama Canal. San Francisco, the 49'ers, and the Golden Gate Harbor, was made by us. This robe will be woven on the Exposition grounds, San Francisco, and also at San Diego, plac ing before the world the work of an Oregon factory and always keeping before them Oregon City. Or. "The famous Elk blanket, known all over the United States, was made by this concern, and the Totempole blan ket and Happy Hunting-ground blan ket also were made by this mill." INSTINCT 1S EXPLAINED Professor Torrey Says Seemingly In telligent Acts Are Automatic. A Sacrifice That's Genuine, Though Most Extraordinary Two Great Piano Sales Combined Into One at Eilers Music House Included in This Sale Are The Beautiful Player Pianos de Luxe Magnificent Autopiano Player Pianos Cunning Bungalow Player Pianos The Superb Achievements of Chickering.Sohmer, Kimball, Haddorff, Smith & Barnes, Marshall & Wendell, Etc. As Well as the "Soule Bros.' Failure Stock of Lester, Wegman, . Behning, Ivers & Pond and Soule Bros.' Pianos. , "Instinct is complicated reflex ac tion." said Professor H. B. Torrey in an address on "Instinct and the Ra tional Life." which he delivered before an -lnterestea auaience 01 zuu persons in room A of the Central Library Sun day night. Professor Torrey explained the re lation of instinct to the different forms of life, declaring that, in some animals. Instinct is automatic, mechanical.

Vote "No" on all other measures. Nearly all of them the latest models and brand new, also some tnat are slightly used, tnongn like new. Including the heavily advertised makes, such as Weber Pianola Pianos, Steele Pianola Piano. Wheelock Pianola Pianos and other Pianola Pianos, which were considered quite the leading, instruments before the invention and development of the later or better types of the genuine Autopiano "metal tubed" and "human touch" player pianos, and also Such formerly well-thought-of player pianos as The Apollo Player Pianos, Kingsbury Inner Angelas Player Pianos, etc, etc. There never was such a rigorous, unrelenting, almost un believable price butchery as this, but the manufacturers' rep resentatives know no other way to get rid of pianos than to cut prices so low that buying positively becomes an impera tive duty to the head of every home. DON'T FAIL TO SEE TODAY Modernized Weber Pianola Pianos, equipped with proper music roll tracking device, 88-note, the hitherto $1075 styles, now only $467; two very fancy styles, $650. Also other Pianola Pianos are all equipped with Themodist and Metrostyle devices, considered so necessary before the advent of the modern Solostyle Music Boll, now priced only $285, $337 and $380. Special: Payments may be ar ranged $10 a month. Special: Free music rolls included at these reduced prices. Kingsbury Player Pianos advertised as worth $550 here now for only $288.

Failure Sale, now in progress at Eilers Music House. An Offer to Quick Buyers Today BEING THIS ADVERTISEMENT WITH YOU IT IS ACTUALLY WORTH $20 WE MAKE THE FIRST PAYMENT FOR YOU We now agree to store free of charge and deliver free of any cost to you on Thanksgiving day or Christmas day. Oome to this great sale, select your piano or player piano or baby grand. Get the advantage of the almost unbelievably 'low selling prices. Take advantage of the simple and easy terms that can now be arranged. You need not bring any money; My Goodness! - . . "Now we can have a new Piano, too, and a . MWMl true Mission Model, at that." , tM& Players, ' Vf "mm. simply tell us how you wish to make the weekly or monthly payments, and a high-class, guaranteed,, sweet-toned piano or player piano will be yours. . It's immaterial whether yon take an old-style piano for a few dollars, or a new $250 up right for $117, or even only $98, or a $1600 Chickering or Grand at the reduced and confidentially low prices we are making, but take a piano now, today, while we are determined to get rid of them. .. ' The Great Manufacturers' Emergency Surplus Sale, com bined with the sale of the costliest styles of instruments taken from Soule Bros.' failure,, has set a new record in Portland for tremendous piano selling. September was by far the greatest September since Eilers Music House started in business, many years ago, and October records are far ahead of September and far greater than any October here tofore. Prosperity is here and better times are upon us. Take advantage of this opportunity now. Next week may be too late. Remember, the low sale prices are made by the manufac turers' representatives. In. the usual way of selling, no such low prices could possibly be had, nor could a manufacturer make such low prices if he maintained a store, for retailing expenses must always be taken care of. But now the manu facturers foot the bills, because Eilers Music House is to pur chase three surplus stock pianos for every two now sold. This is truly a piano-selling event which has never oc curred before and can never happen again. It is a chance : that only comes once in a lifetime. Conditions that combined to make this sale possible will never exist again. That is why everybody who stops to investigate arranges for one of, these superb instruments. Seven of the greatest American piano-makers have ar- ranged this sale. Virtually every instrument in the great ; house of Eilers is included in this sacrifice. Never hereto fore have all the great high-grade makes of pianos been of fered for sale by one concern under one roof, and in addition to this they are now offered at such low prices as will never be seen again. THE SOULE FAILURE PIANOS Again we. repeat it: Unusual conditions create unusual prices. The enormous selling record for the past two months proves this. Two great sales in one. We determined to sell our entire stock of new pianos with the factory representa tives, Messrs. Ellsworth, Barnes and Davey in charge, but we are also selling the residue of the costliest makes from Soule Bros.' Failure Sale, which stock was ordered sold by order of the court. Remember, every instrument sold under our hands is ac companied by the unconditional, ironclad, binding, . money back manufacturers' guarantee, which is countersigned by Eilers Music House, thus making each purchaser doubly sure of positive satisfaction. Hundreds upon hundreds of people have bought their player pianos and pianos since the sale commenced. You will do likewise, and your purchase will prove in every way as satisfactory as any made, here heretofore. But come at once. Come today to Eilers' Building, Broadway at Alder. Ellsworth, Barnes & Davey, Authorized Representatives. illustrated his point by drawings of the frog, the crawfish and the caterpillar. He maintains that instinct Jias to do with the rational life only in so far as it acts as a guide to the brain. He says that many animals without the I cerebral hemisphere feed themselves quite as well as those with brains, and illustrated this again with the frog. He Bald further, "There is no intelli gence in the bird building its nest or leaving one climate for another at a given time. The action is purely auto matic. In many cases gravity alone is responsible for these seemingly intel ligent move in animals." Professor Torrey's lecture 'was given under the auspices of the Rationalist Society. 'Be Game" Skit Also Wins Plaudits and ' All ' Other Offerings De clared Worthy of Mention. With alV the attendant atmosphere of be-powdered wigs, satin knee-breeches, panniers and perfumes of a half-cen tury ago, steps the headline act Pantages. Its title, "The Colonial Minstrel Maids, effectively describe tne nature ot the act. out gives no inkling of the beauty and actual mus cal value of the presentation. The nun ber of girls. falls just one short of dozen. All of the girls sing and three of them, the Colonial trio, have beau tiful voices, and sing with musician understanding. Another trio are tam bourine dancers, gay, madly whirling sprites, whose twinkling toes fly up beyond their heads with quite reckless dash. Two regulation "end men" in blackface and pulple velvet minstrel suits ask the gorgeously appareled in terlocutor questions In between song and dance numbers. Spectacularly, musically and artistically the act is de servedly of headline quality. Next to it in Interest is a new crook sketch by Willard Mack. This one. is called "Be Game," and Is presented by two capital artists, Isabelle Fletcher and Charles Ayres, both well known along the Coast for excellent work in stock. Miss Fletcher plays the role of a wife and mother who has hidden her past life from her husband. A stranger, staying all night at their home in the Canadian woods, turns out to, be the man in her past. He threatens to tell the husband her story unless she flees with him. On a blackboard where she bas been teaching her little boy his letters she reads his last lesson, "Be tiame." She la game and tells the bus- . . - ; GREAT EXHIBIT OF WOOLENS AT LAND SHOW. ! l i .

WOMAN IN PORTLAND WINS HEALTH WITH WONDERFUL STOMACH REMEDY Officials Ask County to Purchase Quarried Material in Aid of Plan. Wood CntHns Also Proposed. Continuing with plans to handle the problem of the unemployed in Portland next Winter the City Commission yes terday sent a letter to the Board ot County Commissioners asking that body to permit the city to engage men to break rock for use on the Columbia Highway and on various county roads. It is the plan to have the rock broken at the expense of the city and to have the county buy the rock next Spring and Summer instead of buying it from private rock quarries. The rock-breaking project will be ad ditional to the plan for clearing land and cutting cordwood. The city now has an agent in the field lining up land-clearing work for the unemployed. It Is thought that many men will be unable to do this work and that rock breaking should be provided for those unable to clear land or cut cordwood. In the letter to the County Commis sioners it Is suggested that rock-break ing camps be established, the county to furnish the camp equipment and the city to supply the men and the money. Rock will be broken and piled along the roads where needed. The men will be paid a nominal price for their labor. Next Summer, when the county starts work on the highway the rock will be on hand and will be purchased from the city at the market -price which would have to be paid to private concerns. The city would gauge its pay to the rock breakers according to the value of the rock. By the plan it ia said the city virtually would advance the money for the rock-breaking and would be reimbursed when he county starts road construction in the Spring.

Brussels and Belgrade comes the turn of Vienna: and the removal of European capitals has become quite a common occurrence. The choice for the new capital of Austria, if the government has to be removed lies between Prague and Innsbruck. If. as seems likely, the lat ter place Is chosen, the seat of Em peror Francis Joseph's government will be centered In one of the most picturesquely situated towm of the empire. It stands high, and is sur rounded by mountains rising to more than 8000 feet. The Emperor has a palace nearby.
