The report of Manager Wllmer Slog shows that Hood River spples have entered 4S cities of the United States and 14 states. Shipments have been made to IS foreign countries.

A large number of Newtown and Spltxenbergs are still held In storage here. Because of the tact that com plete returns have not been received on the apples sold and that large amount of the longer-keeping varie ties remain untold. Mr. 8!eg has been unable to show the net returns for different varieties for the season. How ever, even though tire remainder of ths crop were not sold, the returns show thst the growers will receive a profit above the cost of raising on ths total amount pooled.

DEAF GIVE CIRCUS Band Leading Parade Calls Halt on Business. FIRST SUCH SHOW KNOWN Most Spectacular Stnnt Is "Slide for Lire" by Actor Hanging to Strap by Teeth and Firing Through Air 100 Feet. VANCOUVER. -WasS.. April It. (Special.) When the band leading the parnde Of the Indoor circus given this afternoon and evening at the Washington State 6chool for the Dear, there was a scaring of horses, a gath ering of people, ana wherever the band passed, business was suspended. Clerks went lo the street and the gins In laundries and candy - kitchens, li: their aprons, watched the strange ar ray file past. The band was led by a big drum major, of Imposing and' fantastic ap pearance, and two drums added to the nuibtr, out as lue players uiemniTea could not hear the noise they were making, they could hot keep in step together. But the parade was ef fective in calling attention to the first indoor circus ever given in America by deaf mutes, without assistance. There were two performances and about tlOO was realized which goes into the athletic funds to buy suits and gym naslum paraphernalia. About 25 mutes came from Portland and surrounding cities to be present at the night per formance. Stnnt Is Sensation. The most spectacular stunt perhaps, was the "slide for life" of an actor hanging to a strap by his teeth and flying through the air for 100 feet, holding in each hand a sizzling, burn ing bunch of fireworks. 'The wrestling bout between J. Vt. Meagher and a real, live, black bear, more than a rear old, was startling and called for great applause. The bout waa held In a wire cage, and the bear was muzzled. Three little girls, as darling dancing1 dolls, were graceful In their movements and were encored sev eral times. But the clowns! They performed more silent humor than could be told In a book. They were everywhere, and no two were alike. The original "Mutt and Jeff" pleased the children as much as any number and while all was in tent on a football game they were "playing',' the "great mystery" was re vealed. A stuffed man dropped sud denly from the ceiling with a big thump and the audience gave a gasp. Women shrieked, believing that one of the performers had dropped from the tight wire. Elephant Cansea Sport, And that elephant about the size of a 4-year-old one was the only "live" ani mal, but he was a good one and made mirth by frightening spectators In the circus seats. The Texas Tommie Tumbling Troupe, In tantalizing, terrifying twists and twirls and tumbles, seemed tireless, and performed feats that would do credit to professionals. All of the costumes were made by the pupils, the apparatus used was of their own manufacture, and they were not Ih any way assisted by 'hearing' people. And all of the work was done outside of the regular school hours, until Thursday evening, when a per formance was given after supper for the benefit of the children of the School, all of whom were admitted free.

Alveolar Dentistry Doe Away With Plate and Bridge work The Acme of Dental Per (ectioa It Is Worth Investigating;. Briefly, the Alveolar method Is this: If you have two or more teeth left in either Jaw, we can supply all that you have lost with teeth as good, solid and Sound as the best set of natural teeth, ever .grown in any human being's mouth, and a whole lot more beautiful than nature's best product, without re sorting to such makeshifts as partial plates and the unsanitary brldgework. Alveolar Teeth are not only beautiful, but they are comfortable and durable. We guarantee them to last a lifetime, where the longevity of brldgework is seldom ever longer than five or sis years and generally a good deal less. It IB never guaranteed to last by any flrst-claSB dentist who Is responsible and reliable, because all first-class den tists will tell you that brldgework at best la doubtful. It is a painful oper ation and gives trouble from the time It Is put In the mouth until It bas to be taken out. In many cases where brldgework Is Impossible, and all cases where It Is possible, we can replace your missing teeth with perfect Al veolar Teeth. The pain incident to the work Is practically none; the ex pense Is the same as the best bridge work but in satisfaction there Is no comparison between the two. We have samples In our office to show at all times hundreds of pa tients here In our home city to refer to. Examinations and booklets on Alveolar Dentistry are absolutely free.
