JERSEY BREEDERS ELECT OLI ICALSYSTEM DFTODAY SCORED BUSINESS MEN SUFFER Union league Club of Washington Hears Address Advocating Com plete Renovation of Politics. PTOET SOUND BUREAU, Seattle, Wash, Feb. 22. That the Washington Union League club membership Is seriously perturbed by the evidences of degeneration in the sphere of poli tics was made plain tonight by the applause that followed telling- points In the speeches at tha club's Wash ington birthday banquet. The creed of tha club, now familiar to all mem bers of Washington's newest political organization, was again enunciated by Judge R. A. BalJinger, Its presi dent, and tha necessity of co-operating In support of such a creed was urged at length In the address of Scott Z. Henderson of Tacoma, whose topic was "The Bane of Politics." The other of the two principal ad dresses on the programme was de livered by Dr. S. B. L. Penrose of Walla Walla, and following closely along hlstoo lines was an eloquent tribute to tue life and' services of the nation's first president. Need of Renovation Seen. In the character of the quotations from Washington on the printed pro gramme. In the club's creed, introduc tory remarks of President Ballinger and particularly In, the speech of Mr. Henderson, the large and wholly sympathetic audience was given clearly to understand that the mission of the Union League club Is one of protest and regeneration. With a sub stantial element of citizenship vlewr lngr politics as a mere scramble of In dividuals or groups for power to be selfishly exercised, a complete renova tion of politics in the judgment of Mr. Henderson is essential to the per petuity of the government that Wash ington and his co-laborers established at so great cost and sacrifice. Whether or not the Union League Club will line up behind the Init&itive movement for the repeal of the direct primary law in this state has not been announced, but tonight's big crowd manifested hearty approval of Mr. Henderson's statement that "our sys tem of calling men Into public service Is not calculated to bring Into the po litical field those whose services the beat welfare of the state requires. In fact, our system is not one whereby a man is called into service; on the con trary It is one which the office seeker calls himself and the louder he calls, the more likelihood of being heard. It appears that public office has an attraction for many who never have been able to succeed In any other ca pacity." Business Men Warned. Business men were warned of the dangers of continued neglect of po litical affairs, because the result of such neglect being conditions, laws, and taxes die to theory and experi ment and burdensome and costly to all. At the time the Union League club was organized it was understood that one of its purposes never pub licly proclaimed would be to prevent Indiscriminate contributions to cam paign funds. Mr. Henderson touched that point tonight in the statement that the business man has been pay ing some one else to look after his politics and has paid very dearly. The top-heavy super-structure of experi mental law which has obscured the constitutional foundation, the mass production of statutes and the dispo sitlon to control individual and col lectivo action by the substitution of civil law for conscience, were dis cussed In detail and the "yellow and sordid press" was sternly rebuked None of the speakers of the evening hinted at the possibly partisan slant of the club's further activities, but it was in fact a gathering of republic ans, with possibly a few whose con version is of recent date.

Designed by men in whom the ideals of simple grace were instinct, they were built of lumber. Constructed of the one material which best expresses the homey, comfortable atmosphere, which was then, as now, the distinguishing mark of American domestic architecture. From the beginning lumber has been our great homebuilding material. Beautiful in itself, wood lends its beauty to the homeand is susceptible of unequalled variety and individuality of treatment. Properly used, it meets every requirement of weather conditions and at lower cost than any other building materials. ."

Green Stamps For Cash Wm 1 Four to One Odds Against You The chances are four to one you will contract Pyorrhea after you pass the age of forty unless you take proper precautions. Thousands younger also suffer from this unpleasant disorder of the mouth and gums. Pyorrhea starts with tender, bleeding gums. That is the way Nature warns you of your danger. Heed that warning! If you ignore it, you may pay the penalty by loss of your teeth and serious illness. Pyorrhea works fast. It loosens the teeth in their sockets until they fall out or must be pulled. It forms pus pockets at the roots of the teeth and feeds disease germs into the system. Don't trifle with Pyorrhea. At the first danger signal, see your dentist and start using Forhan's For the Gums. Forhan's, if used consistently and used in time, will prevent Pyorrhea or check its course. It is the time-tested formula of R. J. Forhan, D. D. S. Use Forhan's regularly as a dentifrice. It keeps the teeth and gums in a clean, healthy condition and wards off Pyorrhea. Don't wait until tomorrow.

The terrible epidemic of influenza which has heen raging In Europe for some time past is now beginning Its deadly work in the United States. The disease has lust made its re appearance on this coast, where it is said to be spreading with alarm ing rapidity. "Flu," as nearly everyone knows, appears at ftrst to be nothing more than an ordinary cold, sore throat, or bronchitis. Severe headaches, chills and fever, and a miserable aching feeling throughout the body are some of the usual symptoms. Being highly infectious, the disease quickly attacks the lungs, when its progress is unchecked, causing con gestion cr pneumonia, with possibly fatal results. During the epidemic three years ago, and on. numerous occasions since, many lives were saved by the timely use of "Deo," otherwise known as Dennis' Eucalyptus Oint ment, according to reports of physi cians and others. In fact, there is no record of a case of "flu" proving fatal where "Deo" was used in the early stages. The minute you feel a cold coming on, take no chances. Go to t he nearest drug store and get a tube of genuine "Deo." Place a tea spoonful of the ointment In a hot pan or dish and inhale the soothing vapors. This clears the air passages and helps destroy germs. Insert a quantity of "Deo" in each nostril, snuffing it up as it melts. When going to bed, nib the neck and chest thoroughly with "Deo," leaving a thick layer on the chest and cover ing with a cloth. Carry a tube of "Deo" in your pooket and apply to the nostrils during the day as a pre caution. It quickly heals raw, in flamed membranes. There's nothing better for a cold. "Deo" is guaranteed to give satis factory results, or your druggist will refund your money. He is authorised to do so by the Dennis Mfg. Company of Berkeley, Cal., for 30 years the sole makers of Dennis' Eucalyptus Ointment. Be sure to ask for "Deo" and you'll get the genuine. Adv.
