The Book Shop Main Floor DANGERS STAR AT "HIP" BEADLIXER PROVES ARTISTIC AND PICTURESQUE ACT. Five Other Original aid Novel Offer ing; Slake Bill Exception ally Good. In a pictorial sense and musically and in a terpsichorean way the Seven Variety Dancers at the Hippodrome on the new bill opening yesterday prove a veritable sensation. Thfs ar tistio act is made up of three men and four unusually attractive girls, who smile happily throughout their act and who seem bent on serving up only pleasure for their audience. The four girls are smartly arrayed and the men wear evening clothes. Their act is diversified dancing, opening with a dashing ensemble, followed by individ ual specialties and brilliant ballroom dancing and closing with a series of picturesque native dances set in a gypsy camp. It is all exceedingly ar tistic and high class. "Masters and Mistresses of Terpsichore" is the bill ing, and the act proves that the seven are all the title declares them to be. "The Chap From England" is Vincent and "The Maid From America" is Miss Carter. They feature a keen little novelty in which Vincent endeavors to make a balky motor go on its way. The chatter of the two and the breesy repartee is all new and keeps the audi ence laughing. Al Prince is a prince of an enter tainer. He strolls in, nattily garbed, and proceeds to take the folk out front into his confidence regarding delight fully personal events and keeps 'em laughing at him. Another single is Barney First, billed as "The Dancing Hebrew and Parody Singer," both of which titles he lives up to humorously. The' Totos are novelty equilibrists. Their act, a daring and original one. is performed on top of a high pedestal. Alice Teddy, the famous trained bear. has returned and again does her skat ing act and performs her other clever tricks. The photoplay feature is "Please Help Emily," a comedy starring Ann Murdock. Ml ACCUSED CITIZENS TO ENFORCE LAW Centralia Endeavoring to Suppress m Illegal Sale of Iiiquor. CENTRALIA, Wash.. Dec. IS.

Wash ington, Dec. IS. Charges laid before Representative Slnnott by ftie master of Ignoe Grange, of AJax, Or., allege that improper influence has been brought to bear on the Indian bureau to secure the segregation of a tract of land in Gilliam County for the Klickitat and other Indians. It is the policy of the Indian bureau, under authority of Congress, to set apart tracts of Government land In Western states for the benefit and use of Indians who are homeless, and pur suant to this policy an apparently ln flential stockman, according to the charges, has had a reservation made in Gilliam County, ostensibly for the benefit of - the Klickitat Indians, but actually for his own use and benefit. The stockman who urged the crea tion of this reservation has been des ignated, it is said, as allotting agent for the Indians, but, while acting in this capacity, he has hundreds of head of hls-Own cattle now grazing on the lands set apart for the benefit of the Indians. Representative Sinnott, in transmitting the charges to Commis sioner Sells, has asked that an inves tigation be made and appropriate steps be taken if the charges are . well founded.

"I was all run down and weak inwardly. I had female troubles ana nervous feelings and my head both ered me. I would often have crying spells and feel as if I was not safe. If I heard anyone eoni- ing I would run and lock the door so they would not see me. I tried several doc tors and they did not help me so I said to mv mother 'I omens I will have to die as there is no hem foe . me. She got me one of your little) books and my husband said I should try one bottle. I stopped the doctor's medicine and took Lydia E. Pinkham'sv Vegetable Compound.
