Thursday evening a sleighing party, the destination of which was Wagner Springs, started from the Columbia Hotel at 5:30, In a huge bobsled drawn by four horses, with the usual accompaniments of horns and whistles. It is said the accus tomed serenity of the Rogue river valley was much disturbed along the route. The party arrived at its destina tion at 7:30, and it is needless to say it did justice to the turkey dinner made ready by Mr. and Mrs. Bart let. At either end of the table was a turkey, over which Mr. Briggs and Mr. Foster presided, displaying their skill at carving. After dinner the evening was spent in music and dancing. The most thrilling event of the evening was a panther, evidently at tracted by the unusual sounds, fol lowing the sleigh for some distance. Its deportment we a so gentle that it was decided to leave it unmolested, and it at last disappeared in the trees. The one regret is that Fred rick Remington or one of like gen ius could not have been along to have put on canvas some of the beauty of these mountains robed in white. Those in the party were: Mr. and Mrs. Monte Briggs, Mr. and Mrs. Foster, Mrs. Moulden. the Misses Winnie Hadley, Vivian Greer, Mamie Barnes, Eleanor Greer, Myra Homes and Margaret Tomlin; Messrs. Rout ledge, Caldwell, Ussher, Eugene Moody and Lynn Mowat. In Lion and Mouse. a Berlin zoo a mouse was nut in the cage of a lion to test whether as the old story asserts, there was a natural affection between them. The experience was rather astonishing. The lion saw the mouse before he was fairly through the bars and was after him instantly. Away went the little fellow, squeaking in fright. When he had gone a few yards the lion headed him off, and this was re peated until the mouse stood still. The lion then stood over him, studying his with interest, and pres ently he brought his paw down on the mouse, but so gently that it was not injured in the least. Then the liou played with the mouse, now let ting him run a few inches, and then stopping him again. Suddenly the mouse changed his tactics, and. instead of running when the lion lifted its paw, sprang straight at the big animal's head. The lion, terrified, gave a great leap backward and roared in extreme fright, while the little mouse made his escape. Of th'J two. the lion was the more frightened. New York 'erald.

It has been some time since the theatre-going people of Ashland have had an opportunit" of seeing a real ly meritorious company in legitimate comedy and drama. Beginning Wed nesday night, January 15, and con tinuing four nights, the Victor Don ald Company will present a change of bill each night. Wednesday night, "The Man in Black," a screamingly funny farce; Thursday, "The Sher iff," a thrilling western playlet; Fri day, "My Uncle From New York," excepitonally funny; and Saturday, one of the strongest playlets ever written, "The Eleventh Hour." The following is from the Albany Democrat: "Victor Donald Company at the Rex. '"Victor Donald and company more than made good with the patrons of the Rex Theatre Christmas day, when they opened their engagement with 'The Eleventh Hour.' It was truly as advertised, 'one of the strongest playlets ever written.'; The company was excellent, the stage set tings and costumes beautiful. What more need be said? "Commencing Friday matinee this company will be seen in a screaming ly funny comedy entitled 'The Man in Black, a playlet 50 minutes In length, taken from the three-act play of that title. Mr. Donald has starred in this play for several seasons, and in the role of Abraham Muffin keeps the house in one long roar of laugh ter. Miss Mae Simmons, the talent ed leading woman of "the company; Louise Koch, ffertrand Poal and Master Donald alto contribute their share of the comedy. "If you wish to laugh, and laugh heartily, don't fail to witness a per formance of 'The Man in Black.' "The Victor Donald Company is strictly a guaranteed attraction. "Extract from the Morning Astor ian, Astoria, Ore.: " 'The Victor Donald Company last night made good in every respect. It is indeed refreshing in these days of so many snide traveling shows to find one that is up to the standard and really entertains the public. The Donald company is one that really entertains and gives you more than your money's worth of enjoyment. The company is composed of five people, all artists in their lines.' " Popular priees for this engage ment, 10 and 20 cents, which will include the usual program of excel lent new pictures. Tuesday and Wednesday nights Dreamland presents a big two-reel feature, "Happy, the Four-Footed Hero," an equine wonder. Don't miss this great picture. MRS. LA ItAllGE TO SPEAK.

Advertising a drug store is Tike advertising any other store or busi ness. A drug store has a certain service to sell. Most every man, woman and child has patronized or is patronizing a drug store. Therefore drug stores are recognized as being a necessity, and where there is more than one drug store in a town it is up to the people to decide which store they will trade. . December Weal her.

The. druggist has a big opportun ity to increase his business through advertising. But he must tell more about his business than general statements. Every drug store has a personality through the services it renders. Tell the people about your pre scription methods; about the quality of your drugs; the skill of your dis penser. Tell people about your other goods; get right down to cases and describe the goods in a way that people will want to see them. When you are enthusiastic over, a certain thing and describe It to a friend, don't you give the little personal de tails, thereby bringing out the point? That is what you should do In your advertising. Get enthusiastic over your goods and shoot some of the enthusiasm into your copy.
