"That won't do." said several women, all speaking at once. 'We want to know ritjht now," said Mrs. Ueorge Williams. After the president, Mrs. J. C. Othus, had restored order. Mr. Kella her said that he would attack the Portland Railway, Light & Power company in every court of the land until the company would admit that It had broken its contract. "What would you do about the pub lic service commission?" queried Mrs. Thompson. "The commission could be abolished by vote of the people," answered Mr. Kellaher. Mrs. Thompson Is Skeptical. "I don't think that would happen," said Mrs. Thompson. After Mr. Kellaher had stated that the press of Portland und the courts as well were controlled by the Port land Railway Light & Power com pany, Mrs.' Thompson asked if Mr. Kellaher was "going to put all the big papers out of business." "It might be nice," she said, "but can you do it? Mr. Kellaher did not answer the question directly. Mr. Kellaher was the only candidate for mayor who appeared before the club in person yesterday.

In this article we might aptly change the title to Furs and Fabrics, for really there is no mystery about the reason a dealer permits a custo- er to leave his store with a coat or Crimer,- and the impression perhaps subtly or otherwise created that she has a coat of fur. Irfing profit is his. Quite clever imitations of seal, nu tria and beaver are often but plush cloth fabrics. There is but one place to buy furs. That is a fur store of the first class. For furs roust wear commensurate with the amount of money invested, and therefore only a master of fur trade should build your fur apparel. This transaction only begins when you pay your money, and ends when you are satisfied with the durability of the fur and' feel that It has worn you your money's worth. Tour money cannot buy more than true worth. The feeling of mental satisfaction, the security of tha knowledge that other people's analysis of you cannot but reveal their respect for your judgment and good taste, in the pur chase of your fur piece, will be Jus tified, if you choose the shop of the experienced and reliable furrier. Fabric imitations, when sold as such, will Berve"a purpose. But to the person who possesses a genuine fur comes the feeling that it is- the last word In refined luxuriousness. Whether you buy the moderate priced peltries, or those of the rarest of furbearing animals, be sure and ask for a guarantee that the garment is as represented, for it's well to Beware of the Wolf m Sheep s Clothing.
