hla term, lila flret Impreanlve proof that
In study waa bringing results came
when he rvcctvrd flrat prize for the
best aua'.ained character at a maek ball
given in honor of General Grant In San
xrmjicls'-o many yeara ago. Mr. Roberta
went In the gu!e of a "hobo." even
going ao fAT aa to roll generously In the
dusty road en route to the festivities, to
eupply the needed local atmosphere. At
tl'e entrance he waa gently thrown
down the atrpa with polite request
from the po!l-etnan on guard to "get out
and stay out."
"I waa sure then that my meJte-up
was a success, and when 1 showed my
t!ket of admission the admiration
evinced In the apologetic tonea of the
guards waa aa softest salve for my In
jured bonea."
Mr. Ilobert contend that the ability
to "mk-up'- la a gift, and cannot be
Jrarnel by any system. "Why be
eaid. "I've tried time and again to teach

actual sound of the word Is concerned,
but the accent, that elusive untenable
thing. Is only to be gained by one whose
ear la attuned to tha fine distinctions
of every voice, every language and every
form of that language. I am willing to
devote a great deal of my time to both
my study of rixilecte and my make-up.
I really love It." he finished, simply.
That Is why. probably, he ha no rival
In his art much less any artist who out
doea him. Mr. Roberta" greatee rolea

In the history of the atage. and In which
all actors who since have played the
part have given Mr. Roberts that sin

Karon llardfeld In "Jim. the Penman"
has become a matter of theatrical his
tory and as considered faultless.
Accent Is Absorbed.
"When I was studying the role. I had

Yamhill County Wants Itrldge.

County appeared before the Marlon
County Court this afternoon for tha
purpoaa of asking aid in lbs construe- J
f
Straight
and Why So Much More Is
Asked for the Grades and
Qualities in Some
Places.
When dealers who have no means of their own get
San Francisco or other jobbing houses to send them
pianos, which are to "bo paid for by snch local concern as
and when each instrument has been sold, either in cash
or with a portion of a customer's contract, it is impos
sible for such concern to sell at a price that is fair.
Any one who will study this situation will come to
this conclusion. And any one who will investigate this
situation will also quickly determine that individuals so
situated cannot be expected to speak a good word for
Eilers Music House or the fine pianos that Eilers Music
House sells. Please remember this when a salesman in
his talk runs down Eilers pianos.
It is impossible for dealers thus handicapped to
compete openly and fairly with an establishment like
Eilers Music House. As a usual thing Eilers Music
House is found to be selling pianos at retail at a price
actually lower than what dealers of the character re
ferred to pay at wholesale for instruments of the same
grade and quality.
In our determination to close out everything in our
old premises, we have made prices lower than ever, and
lower on first-class, warranted pianos
again will be in Portland for many months to come.
Depend upon it! A few of the instruments in this sale,
and nricea thereon, are shown in the illustration. Among
other pianos in this sale may be found also the following:
Vose, elegant walnut, $165.
Schumann, splendid mahogany, $285.
