EAST LYNNE LEADING LADY COMFORTS STAGE-STRUCK LASS Hair Made Blonde With Axle Grease Brings Introduction for Little Miss Eleanor Henry to Her Actress Heroine. RESERVES TO MARCH First Regiment'to Be Reviewed by Mayor Tomorrow. DIRECTORS BUY $5,000,000 Southern Pacific Starr Takes Cp to $50,000 of Liberty Loan and Other Lines in Northwest Will Promote, Sales. More than 2600 employes of the O.-W. R. & N. Company In Oregon. Washing ton and Idaho have subscribed to the liberty loan in varying amounts aggre gating nearly $260,000. As a part of the Union Pacific sys tem, the O.-W. R. & N. employes -were among the first In the Northwest to be offered the opportunity to buy bonds on the Installment plan. Employes are permitted to subscribe to the extent of 25 per cent of the monthly salaries, paying for the bonds at the rate of 6 per cent per month. Interest at 3 per cent is charged on the deferred payments, but employes are permitted to retain the coupons on their bonds, which also pay 3V4- . Subscriptions from nearly every de partment of the system have been com ing into the headquarters in Portland ever since the installment system was offered the employes. President Bar ren unfolded the plan through the heads of the various departments. Instantly it met with ready response. Most applications were for small amounts, but some of the higher-paid officials subscribed for blocks of $1000 and more. F Brotherhoods Boost Hoods. Officials of the railroad brotherhoods took up the plan and urged the mem bers to buy bonds. It is understood that more than 76 per cent of the broth erhood members on the O.-W. R. & N. lines have subscribed. The task of receiving and compiling the applications called into service a. small staff of clerks, many of whom will have to be retained permanently. The company proposes to collect the monthly Installments from the monthly check of the employe, thus eliminating a lot of Irksome work that would arise through payment of th lull salary to each and repayment by the employes of their monthly installments. It Is probable that a small staff of clerks will be required until all the In stallments are paid to handle this de tail. The opportunity of subscribing un der the company's plan will remain open until next Friday, when the bond campaign closes. It is estimated that fully $250,000 will have been subscribed by that time. District to Get Credit. The applications will be distributed by company officials among the banks of the Northwest, so that each district will get credit for the money subscribed In that district. It Is estimated that a little more than $100,000 thus will be credited to the Portland campaign headquarters. Other railroads operating out of Port land have made similar offers to their employes with equally gratifying re sults. ' The Southern Paclflo staff in the Portland territory has subscribed more than $50,000, according to latest esti mates. The Great Northern and Northern Pa clflo also have given their employes the Installment privileges. Employes of the North Bank road In both Oregon and Washington have sub scribed on the same terms of small monthly installments. The Union Pacifio directors have In vested $5,000,000 of their surplus funds In the liberty issue, besides the money Invested by the Individual officials and employes. V v " - ' Yci .

M: ISS ELEANOR HENRY, who plays the leading feminine part - of Princess Mania Demldoff in John Corfs production of "Flora Bella," which will be the offering at the Ba ker Theater this week, relates with much pleasure her fondest hopes when a child of being an actress of "East Lynne" fame. "I was simply 'stage struck,' If you may term It so, when a child. I had a weakness for "East Lynne," a play I cherish to thif. day for memory's sake. I was born and reared in a country town in New York, and every season a well-known stock company would pay us a visit and. Just as sure as the sun rises and sets, their repertoire would Include "East Lynne" for Saturday matinee. The leading lady was Miss Ida Van Courtland, a beautiful and talented young woman, and naturally I wanted to look like and act as much like Miss Van Courtland as possible. At last my fondest hopes were realized. The stock company arrived and, when 'East Lynne' was announced I was there with my little 10-cent piece and the usual 'school matinee card,' and was given a seat in the very front row. AH during the performance I cried for the dear Lady Isabella with the blonde hair. The curtain rang down on the death of Lady Lsabelle. Ah! poor me. "While strolling home after the mat inee, I decided that I, too. should be a blonde of the Miss Van Courtland stage type, but how? As I turned into the alley gate at home I spied a box of - w - - axle grease on the stump, the contents of which appeared golden, really blonde, and the thought of being a lady Just like Miss Van Courtland gladdened my little heart. I stealthily took the bo of axle grease to the barn, took off my hat and then and there proceeded to make myself a blonde. When I thought I was Just about perfect as the blonde in 'East Lynne' I darted out of the barnyard int othe street an darced to ward the opera-house In hopes of meet ing the heroine coming from the thea ter. "I calculated correctly, for about the same time I reached the stage entrance Miss Van Courtland appeared on the street. Of course she saw me. (Myl who would have noticed, such a sight as I must have been?) Try as she might to keep from smiling, she could not. Just about this time who should appear on the scene from the other side of the street but mother and Aunt Ellen.. Both were horrified and perplexed at my ap pearance (which, by the way, might have been terrible) and demanded an explanation, which was given without a stutter. "I may say that I was doomed to severe punishment, but for the timely interference of Miss Van Courtland, who took me in her arms and hugged and kissed me In spite of my blonde hair. It was my heroine who washed and combed my hair that very mem orable evening, and after supper, when mother put me to bed. Miss Van Court land dropped in on her way to work to Six companies of the First Regiment Infantry.

Pormtiifilnn Viaa been accorded by the War Department to wear the United New York. N. Y. It la conservatively estimated that over three million peo- I pie annually in this country alone are taking Nuxated Iron. Such astonishing results have been reported from Its use both by doctors and laymen, that a number of physicians in various parts of the country have been asked to ex plain wny tney prescriDe it so exten sively, and why ft apparently produces so much better results than were ob tained from the old forms of lnorganlo iron. Extracts from some of the letters re ceived are given below: Dr. erainana Kinif, a new xorx Physician and Medical Author, says: "There can be no vigorous Iron men without Iron. Pallor means anaemia. Anaemia means iron deficiency. The skin of anaemic men and women is ale. The flesh flabby. The muscles ack tone, the brain fates and the mem ory falls and they often become weak, nervous. Irritable, despondent and mel ancholy. When the iron goes from the blood of women, the roses go from their cheeks. In the most common foods of Amer ica, the starches, suarara. table svruos. candies, polished rice, white bread. soda crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spa ghetti, tapioca, sago, farina, determi nated cornmeal, no longer is iron to be found. Refining processes have re moved the iron of Mother Earth from these Impoverished foods, and silly methods of home cookerv. hv throwinar down the waste-pipe the water in which our vegetables are cooked, are responsible for another grave iron loss. "Therefore. If you wish to preserve your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe oia age, you must supply tne iron de ficiency in your rood, cv usina- soma form of ortsanic Iron lust as vou would use salt when your food has not enough sail.

"Recently I was prompted through an endorsement of Nuxated Iron by Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Surgeon of at. i.iiciDtin a nospiiai, new xorK. to give it a trial. This remedy has nroven through my own tests of It to excel any preparation I have ever used for cre ating red blood, building up the nerves, strengthening the muscles and correct ing digestive disorders." Dr. E.

ANOTHER FIREMAN QUITS Latest Resignation Is That of 3. V. Kalhofen, Who Is Fourth to Leave. One mere resignation of a fireman due to the failure of the firemen's two platoon bill to pass, was announced yesterday. The new resignation Is that of J, F.
