THIS big Maribel Seymour benefit to
be (ftven at the Baker Theater on
Wednesday night by the members
of the Baker Stock Company Is a topic
of general discussion among theater
goers. Indications are that the capacity
of the theater will be taxed. The regu
lar Baker prices will prevail, and the
tickets are being disposed of in large
numbers by friends and fellow workers
of Miss Seymour.
It promises to be the finest vaudeville
show ever seen here. Its direction will
be in charge of Miss Louise Kent and
practically every member ot the Baker
Company will participate. The follow
ing is the programme in full:

FIRST ASSEMBLY TUESDAY
Ai IX READINESS AT GLAD
STONE FOR CHAUTAUQUA.
Many Prominent Speakers to Ap
pear, Among Them John Sharp
Williams and Bishop Mclntyre.
Arrangements for the Chautauqua,
hloh opens Tuesday. July 7. at Gladstone
Park, are rapidly nearlnft completion.
Headquarters for the various schools,
clubs and associations have been estab
lished. Those in charge have been ad
vised that the various lecturers will ar
rive promptly and that the entire pro
gramme will be Riven practically as an
nounced. Perhaps the most Interesting;
feature of the coming session will be the
appearance of John Sharp Williams. .Dem
ocratic leader In the House of Representa
tives. I'nited States Senator-elect from
Mississippi, snd one of the leading public
trouble, that it Is incurable, that T have
but a short time to live, and that it does
not make any difference as to where I
KO, what I take, or what I do death is
bound to come within a short length
of time, though they cannot state defi
nitely when that time will be.
An announcement of this kind, com
ing: direct to a man who has always
considered himself as possessing ordi
nary good health, is. to say the least,
very disconcerting. Yesterday a physi
cian said to me': "Why, Mr. J., these
things happen every day." We simply
pass them along to somebody else, with
a hope that the party they are going
to can help them, or advise them to go
to a different climate, dispose of them
as easily as possible, and consider that
It is the best thing for us to do. I
think myself that that Is all they can
do. but I find myself unable to sit down
quietly and face death without making
every effort in my power to live as
long as I possibly can. The question Is:
"How can that be done?"
Possibly some one who reads this will
be in the same position. Friend, what
arc you doing? Simply going to sit still
and wait? A public or personal reply
will be of interest to a number.
Of the medical fraternity I desire to
ask some questions: How must we diet?

ABERDEEN'. Wash.. July 3. (To the
Editor.) A recent personal experience
of mine Is of such an unusual char
acter at least with me that J. want to
relate it in print.
March 1 last I was a resident of East
ern Oregon, engaged in the real estate
business and doing a fairly successful
one. About that time and for a short
time prior, I noticed a failure in my
health. I had difficulty In breathing,
coughed considerably, consulted a phy
sician friend of. mine and he informed
me that I had heart failure. To make
this story short, within the last four
months I have treated with twelve dif
ferent physicians who reside in Baker
City. Radium- Springs. Portland. Or.,
Montesano. Wash., and Aberdeen.
Wash. These physicians all agree
mainly to one opinion, that I have heart
Exercise? Is there any known drug,
powder, tablet, fluid, pill or medical in
gredient of any kind or combination of
them, that can be used with certain
foods that will cause us to live longer
than ordinarily, with less pain, enjoying
life as much as we possibly can without
physical pain? I am much troubled
with a cough of recent development
that produces a phlegm tinged with
b'ood. c. E. JAMESON.

PARIS. July 4. (Special.) Count De
Camondo. the well-known Parisian
millionaire and art lover, who has
probably helped more artists toward
fame than any other living man in this
city, has now himself entered upon an
artistic career by composing an opera
produced at the Opera Comique, of
which institution he is one of the
backers.

Care to Be Taken or Young Women
Visitors at ' Assemblies for
Nominal Charge.
The state board of the Toung Women's
Christian Association begins, its Summer
work with the opening of the Chautau
qua Assemblies at Gladstone and Ash
land. At each place they offer perma
nent headquarters for young women. It
does this in the hope of meeting two
needs; first that of minimizing a grow
ing tendency of young women to camp
alone, and second to make it possible
for women who get little opportunity for
change and Interesting or profitable en
tertainment to have the advantage of the
Chautauquas at the lowest possible cost
prices.
The headquarters will be comfortable
and attractive in all ways. There will
be a central reception-room tent, and
small dormitory tents (two single cots
In each tent) completely equipped for
comfort. The price per night will be
2S cents. Simple breakfast and lunches

cover the expense of the material. The
course of lessons is planned to meet the
desires of housekeepers of every phase

Exclusive Cluo for Snobs.
LONDON. July 4. (Special.) A club for
snobs is the latest development of snob
bishness. Of course, that name is the
label applied to the new club by mere
plebeian mortals not eligible for member
ship. To be a member yofo must belong
to a family which has been entitled to
use a coat-of-arms for-100 years. The
rule Is obviously made to exclude every
body who has not an aristocratic pedigree,
so that people whose entry into society
has been more or less sudden cannot hope
to enter the sacred portals. William
Waldorf Astor will please take notice.
Technique of Home-Making.
Woman's Home Companion.
Cook, sweep, dust and sew, these
four words will never make a happy
home. They do not make sympathy,
and love, and ambition, and faith; but
they go a long way toward making
room for these things. The average
bride has a trunkful of Ideals, and
maybe two trunkfuls of clothes. Her
cook book if she has one and the
leaves are cut at all opens easily to
to fudge. But unless she has mas
tered enough pages of this book to get
three meals a day. without exhausting
her own body and soul, and her hus
band's too. she will have little time for
clothes and none at all for ideals. She
finds herself involved in the mastery
of the merest technical details. In
spite of Ix'r best endeavor, her hus
band loses his enthusiasm for badly
cooked food poorly served. Perhaps
she tells him that he couldn't do it so
well himself, and then he tells her
about what he can do perhaps it's
soldering a joint or1 adding up a col
umn of figures or drawing a straight
line between two given points but
anyhow he can do it, because it is his
business and he has perfected himself
In It, and if she and then Cook and
Sweep and Dust and Sew fling wide the
doors of that house, and Sympathy and
Love and Ambition and Faith make
their escape.

GAMBRINUS is a builder of body and health, not a creator of nor an aid to a pernicious appe
tite for alcohol. . . . - .
There is only 3 per cent alcohol in beer (good beer like GAMBRINUS) ; the percentage of
food values being ten times as great as the percentage of alcohol.
GAMBRINUS, used regularly and in moderate quantities, produces sturdy health, good diges
tion and sound sleep.
GAMBRINUS is frequently prescribed by physicians as a body-builder. Where a mild tonic
and an aid to digestion are required, GAMBRINUS is specified more frequently than any other
brew sold in Portland.
'Tis HEALTHFUL, because it is PURE.
The best of barley, rich in food values; the finest quality hops, an invaluable nerve tonic, and
the purest water obtainable are used in brewing GAMBRINUS. ' .
Then, too, the best skill to be had, the most absolute cleanliness are observed in the production
of this perfect beer.
