One of the fashionable events of the week will be the second concert of the Portland Symphony orchestra to morrow evening at the Helltg. Tho orchestra has shown its quality, and as a recognition of Us good work ap3 efforts and as an encouragement for Its continuance Portland will five It the support, it needs. These local orchestral concerts ars being made events of fashion. The last concert which was given In the af ternoon at the Harquam was attended by one of the most representative gath erings or women seen at any puone function In Portland.. The evenlns hour has been arranged to accommodate tho men 1 who were unable to rive up the arternoon time.. Many parties aru olanned for tomorrow even In with din tier preceding, and supper following -at some of the down-town grills. Mr. and Mrs. W.

Mrs. Walter Reed, by the way, has taken apartments at the Danmoore where she had such charmfhg accom modations when It was the old Nor- CONSCIENTIOUS DRUGGIST About a year", ago E. A. Sodergren. a druggist, wrote us from Callaway, Ne braska, that he had a serisus case of kidney- disease and that hla physician did not offer him mufch encouragement. He desired to put' Fulton's Renal Com pound In stock for his own case and If he got results he would sell It to others. He wrote several times for ad vice, showing a very obstinate case. He now writes: "It Is now ten months since I began using the compound, and although my case has been very ob stinate, It seems to have Anally yielded to the treatment. I have no doubt re sults would have -been obtained sooner had I not kept at work." (Due to the results obtained in this case our agencies' were promptly ' ac cepted In Callaway and the adjoining town.) ' . Simply another case of kidney trou ble rn which the Inflamed kidneys re fused to respond to the futile old-time kidney excitants Snd that after all else had failed, yielded i to Fulton's Renal Compound, the first and only emolient , for inflamed kidneys. . Inflammation of the kidneys, even In Its advanced forms, If now curable. -Bend for i.-erature. 7 JOHN J. FULTON CO., -4 f ' ; s .. . r Oakland, California.

Motoring, boating, riding and driving, and golf are the favorite pastimes, but 1 notice that several tennis courts are being put in shape to Indulge the fancies of the enthusiasts.

These include our best players and there Is every reason to suppose that the delegation will uphold the honor of Waverly. Mr Allen Lewis chose a trip to California to see the fleet and so relinquished the Victoria trip which came at the same time. And speaking of seeing the fleet there are lots of loyal Americans who feel their blood course a little more rapidly with the fervor of the battle spirit. They are making the best of their disappointment at not having the fleet In the Portland harbor and many of them have gone to San Francluo to be present at the festivities in there, Mrs. ,Allen Lewis left yesterday with her sister, Mrs. William Taylor of San Francisco who has been visiting hero the past three weeks and has been elaborately entertained.

In the form of dramatic skit to be offered at the Grand. It is suffering from a complication of disease and yet Is not without its appeal there la a climax that Is unexpected and novel, that manes up lor tne many improbabilities that are dragged In early In ths act, and wipes out the bad melodramatic mo ments. But in spite of the good points in the act the "and company" part of the arrangement does its best to spoil things by bellowing. Porter White, play ing the counsel for the defense, Is frood, even with his exaggerations. Ju lan Oreer the district attorney, looks well, haa a good voice and stags pres ence, but Is hopelessly noisy. There is no such thing as answering anyone in a conversational tone of. voice In his house. You must howl at the serv ant,, howl at the reporters (perhaps he's right there) and howl at your guests In order to come up to Mr. Greer's ideas. At the same time "The Visitor" is ths most Interesting one-act play that "has been played hers for some time. The Marco twins ars featured on tbe program as the headline attraction. They are familiar in farcical plays and are In themselves, ludicrous. One Is' ex tremely tall and angular and the other very T short Their act from time im memorial, has been for the -tall one to slap tne little one In the face with his foot knocking him. down and rolling him over.- This Is repeated again and Shaving 15 Cents (Tour Shoes 6h(ned Freei V V Vial JSODEt. bajubb szor .,- .-. :. i 8Uth Street- ,;."- again and constitutes the act The As- oot-Eddy trio, Clara Thorpe, and the Alpha trio of hoop rollers complete the frogram. the hoop-rollers having an act hat. is pretty and entertaining.

' ' ' (Copyright 1101. by Oorg Matthew Adams.) -a deftly plied needle is not all there is to fine tailoring. The1 measur ing is important so im portant that all the af terwork depends upon how skillfully it is done. The cutting must be done only by an experi enced and skilled cutter, for upon the cutting de pends the success of turning out a well-meas-ured suit .Then, there's the fitting. It is fully as Important that a' man be fitted well as that a wo .man should, by her ac complished dressmaker. It requires a careful ob server to fit a man cor rectly.
