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.

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

and two companies are now organized at
Salem, so that it look as if the or
ganization will become state-wide.

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.

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
