The present measures are to be refer red back to the joint committee for hearings. They have been prepared by assistants who worked in connection with the consolidation committee cre ated by the last legislature and who are creating their labors under the auspices of the joint committee of this cession.

Ionian Gish and Robert Harron, the big figures in "The Great Love," are the leading players in "The Greatest Thing in Life.'

Senator Smith Deems "Wider Protec tion Imperative if -State Aid Is Taken From Accident I'mij. STATE CAPITOL Salem. Jan 28. (Special.) Compulsory insurance of all persons engaged In so-called hazardous employment is provided for in an amendment to the workmen's compen sation act, which was submitted to the Senate today by Senator L S. Smith. In the form of s joint resolution. Before It becomes a law the amendment must be approved by a vote of the people of Oregon. The proposed amendment Is spon sored by the labor forces of the state, many of whom have been at the Capi tol since the opening of the session, seeking to pave the way for the pass age of the measure. Attorney-General Brown and W. S. U'Ren have assisted in drafting the resolution. Compulsion Held TVeceaatty. According to Senator Smith, who Ik fathering the resolution on Its voyage through the Senate, the' withdrawal of state aid from the industrial accident fund makes It impetative that compul sory insurance be provided to save the workmen's compensation act from nul lity. Unless firms which do not now insure their employes under the state law are compelled to come under its provisions the withdrawal of state aid will result In the withdrawal of those firms which now use this form of lia bility insurance. MSO.OOO Savins; Possible. At the present time there appears to be an unanimity of opinion among the lawmakers that state aid should be withdrawn. This will effect a sav ing of approximately $680,000 during the "next two years. However, some members of both the House and Senate contend that the support of the state cannot be held until the provision of the workmn's compensation act be made compulsory in f.11 hazardous em ployment; and because of this general feeling, it Is predicted that either the Senator Smith amendment proposal or some similar measure will be Indorsed at this assembly.

A SMALL BOTTLE STOPS DANDRUFF Every Bit of Dandruff Disap pears and Hair Stops Coming Out. Try This! Your Hair appears Glossy, Abundant, Wavy and Beautiful. Guinea Pig, Victim of Ether, Lives to Grunt Greetings. Miss Mayme Stark, Bacteriologist, Is I nnble to Solve Problem. Thin, brittle, colorless and scrapgy hair Is mute evidence of a neglected scalp; of dandruff that awful scurf. There is nothing; so destructive to the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair of its lustre, its strength and its very life; eventually producing a feverlsh ness and itching of the scalp which. If not remedied, causes the hair roots to shrink, loosen and die then the hair Xalls out fast. A little Danderine to night now any times will surely save your hair. Get a small bottle, of Knowlton's Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter for a few cents, and after the first application your hair will take on that life, lustre and luxuriance which is so beautiful. It will become wavy and fluffy and have the appearance of abundance, an incomparable gloss and softness; but what will please you most will be after just a few weeks' use. when you will actually see a lot of fine, downy hair new hair growing all over the scalp. Danderine is to the hair what fresh showers of rain and sunshine are to vegetation. It goes right to the roots, Invigorates and strengthens them. Its exhilarating and life-producing proper gu cause the hair to grow long, strong soul tta.uLiiui a.ux. VKN Guinea pigs are masters of their fates was the decision of the bacteriologists of the National Hospital Association when the opened the doors of the laboratories yesterday morning and were greeted by a vig orous, frisky little Guinea pig. The joke was on Miss Mayme Stack, head bacteriologist. In making the Wasserman test on Monday Miss Stack needed a consid erable amount of blood and she was of the opinion umi she had taken evefy drop of blood from the Guinea pig upon which she was working. To re lieve the pig from any possible suffer ing after she had given it a dose of ether, cut its jugular vein and its throat, she gave it another anesthetic. "Just to make sure," said Miss Stack, "when I was through .with him I sat urated a huge handkerchief with ether, tied it about his head and then threw him into the waste paper basket. That wrfs the last I ever expected to see of the pig. but there he was. full of life, running about more hppily than ever, this morning." Members of the laboratory have reasoned out two theories by which the little pig came back to life. One they briefly term. '"Spooks." The other is oased in the proverbial and hereto fore unhappy "strength" of the pig family, which in this case caused a wiggly little animal instead of a dead one to be found by the janitor Mon day night- all '. uslnesH at Goldendale to be con ducted behind locked doors, was lifted Monday morning. No formal action has been taken by the school board in re gard to reopening the schools, but they will not be opened for another week at least.

INFLUENZA RESULTED JN ANEMIA Fort Wayne Woman Recom mends Treatment That Re pairs the Ravages Caused by the Attack. There are few people In the country who weren't touched by the sorrow that trailed in the wake of the Spanish In fluenza epidemic. Estimates of the loss of life caused by the disease have been made, but It will be many years before the real effect of the scourge can be measured, for the after effects of Influ enza are sometimes as fatal as the dis ease itself. Victims of the disease are generally left with Impoverished blood and weak ened system. In this condition they are exposed to many dangers unless pre cautions are taken. Failur to avoid exposure frequently results in pneumo nia or bronchitis, and for this reason It is of first importance that the depleted blood should be rehabilitated. Strong blood and healthy nervea are the best immunity from disease. A blood builder is therefore an im portant part of the treatment after an attack of influenza, and the case of Mrs. Julia Richmond, of No. 407 Pop lar street. Fort Wayne. Ind., is an ex ample of the benefits of this treatment. T had a severe attack of Influenza," she says, "and it seemed as though I didn't have any blood left. My face looked like wax and I was so weak that I couldn't walk upstairs and didn't dare walk far from home for fear of not be ing able to get back. I had dizzy spells and would have periods of melancholia. "Several years previously I had used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills with benefit and. knowing of their quality as a blood builder. I again began taking them. I felt better after the first box and continued the treatment until I had used three boxes, when my color re turned and my strength was restored. 1 can do my own work now and no longer have difficulty in climbing stairs. Sly heart Is normal and the dizzy spells are things of the past. I have become so confident of the power of Dr. Will iams Pink Pills to build up the blood that I unhesitatingly recommend them to those of my friends who are in need of a tonic." The debility that invariably follows Influenza is not a disease of any one organ. It is a general condition of un fitness. It must be met by a remedy whose good results will be quickly reu erallzed throughout the entire system. In fact, it must be corrected by build ing up the blood, which, when rich and red. carries renewed health and strength to every part of the body. Our booklet. "Building l"p the Blood." contains a chapter on after effects of the grip which will interest everyone who has been a victim of the epidemic. A copy will be sent free to any address on request by the Dr. Williams Medi clnce Co.. Schenectady. N. Y. Dr. Will iam's Pink Pills are sold by your own druggist or will be sent by mail, post paid, on receipt of price. 50 cents per box. six boxes for 81.50.
