Roche, at the request of the committee,
of which Plumbing Inspector Hey Is a

strained honey can be used instead of
the sugar syrup, if desired.

QF LOLAG: BALDWIN
ASKED BY PETITIONERS
Head:tf -MumcipaldSureau for
Protection of Women Ac
cused of Being Heartless,
Demanding the immediate removal of
Mrs. Lola O. Baldwin, superintendent
of the municipal bureau for the protec
tion of women, 14 men and women filed
a petition' signed by 1000 names with
Mayor Albee yesterday afternoon. Here
are the reasons why Mrs. Baldwin
should be removed, according to ,tbe
petition: f
"She is utterly heartless and cold
blooded and not a fit person to judge
of human flesh and blood.
"She makes no attempt whatever to
secure work for these unfortunate girls
but railroads them to some Institution
as the easiest way out of It.
"Bhe has never been known to make
on kind remark, but instead, every
word she utters makes these girls de
spise her.
We feel that a motherly nerson
would have a tendency to make the
girls better instead of worse."
The specific charge against Mrs.
Baldwin, according to the delegation
yesterday, was because of treatment of
Lillian Larklns, a girl whom Judge Stev
enson sentenced to the state Industrial
school for girls but who Is now out
pending appeal.
Mayor Albee agreed to sift the mat
ter to the bottom.
Mrs. Baldwin said this morning that
the statements in the petition are ab
surd and that as Boon as all of the
facts in the case become public she will
be vindicated. Some of the facts in
the case were investigated by District
Attorney Evans some time ago.

To Put On Flesh
and Increase Weight
A Physician's Advice
Most thin people eat from four to six
pounds of good solid fat making food
every day and still do not Increase in
weight one ounce, while on the other
hand many of the plump, chunky folks
eat very lightly and keep gaining all the
time. It's, all bosh to say that this Is
tne nature or the individual, it lsn
Nature's way at all.
Thin folks stay thin because their
powers of assimilation are defective.
They absorb just enough of the food
they est to maintain life and a sem
blance of health and strength. Stuffing
won't help them. A dozen meals a day
won't make them gain a single "stay
there" pound All the fat producing ele
ments of their food Just stay in the In
testines until they pass from the body
as waste. What sach people need is
something that will prepare these fatty
food .elements so that their blood can
absorb them and deposit them all about
the body something, too, that will mul.
tiply their red blood corpuscles and in
crease their blood's carrying power.
For such a condition I always recom
mend eating a Sargot tablet with every
meal. Sargol Is not. as some believe, a
Patented drug, but ia a scientific com
lnatlon of six of the most effective and
powerful flesh building elements known
to chemistry. It Is absolutely harmless,
yet wonderfully effective and a single
tablet eaten with each meal often has
the effect of Increasing the weight of a
thin man or woman from three to five
pounds a week. Sargol Is sold by Wood
ard. i Clarke Drug company, Portland,
and other' good druggists everywhere
on a positive guarantee of weight in
crease or money back. (Adv.)

FRIENDS OF T. R. IN
REPUBLICAN PARTY
PLAN HIS RECALL
(Continued From Page Ont.S
velt were most active at last nights
dinner and laid plans Intended to recall
him to the leadership of both the Re
publican and Progressive parties. The
movement was led by former Governor
Hadley of Missouri, Senators Cummins
and Borah and Ormsby McHarg. They
expect mucn support.
Chairman Hllles appointed this morn
ing a special committee to consider a
special convention to change the repre
sentation at national conventions with
out ratification. Senator Borah did
not believe this would be done.
"I do not expect the committee will
call a special convention," he said, "but
mm it win cnange the representation
itself, subject to ratification bv statu
conventions."
The report of the law committee was
presented to the national committee by
Chairman Charles Warren. It denied
the committee's right to change the
basis of representation, but sustained
Its authority to call a special conven
tion. "The problem," . said Warren, "Is to
prevent the continued division of the
members of our party. Let us admin
ister our own corrective and not permit
the Democratic party to use the position
it gained solely by a division in our
ranks to destroy the good our party
has done In the nation."
Warren favored a convention "to de
clare its convictions, establish a new
basis for representation and prepare to
restore a Republican congress to a coun
try already anxiously awaiting it."
Warren opened the fight by moving
that a special convention be called.
Senator Cummins and Representatives
Woods and Cramton also indorsed the
convention plan. They thought tho
party's interests could best be served
In this way.
