M. Iloberts the pretty young wife of Kvans was ar rested by Sheriff Terrill on tho charge of being an accomplice of her husband in the sensational jitney kid naping and robbery of YV. G. White of Grants Pass on the night of Sept. 13th last, for which crime Evans was found guilty by a Jury in circuit court last Saturday. He will be sentenced tomorrow at 9 a. m. Tho technical charge against Mrs. Kvans is assault and robbery with a dangerous weapon. Sho was arraign ed at noon in Judge Taylor's court and her preliminary hearing was set for Wednesday. Her bail was set at $2000, and early this afternoon she had not yet succeeded in furnishing the ball, altho she visited a number of persons around town and used the telegraph and long distance phone wires to various out of town po'ints. It looked as tho In default of bail she would have to go to the county jail s the guest of Sheriff Ten-ill. According to the authorities of Jackson county Mrs. Evans is alleged to have been the woman companion of Kvans on the jitney kidnaping and robbery trip of White from Grants Pass to Jacksonville. She had already been identified as such during Kvans' trial by Mr. Whito and other Grants Pass wit neascs, and it Is said had also been identified by other witnesses. OF ANTI-SUFFRAGISTS NEW YORK, Mar. 23. Claims of anti-suffragists that the Anthony amendment to the constitution, if ratified would be ineffective in states where state constitutions restrict suf frage to "male" citizens until such constitutions had been amended arc erroneous, according to an opinion obtained from Charles K. 'llughos, former justice of tho United Statos supreme court by the National Amer ican Women Suffrage association. Judge Hughes also advised tho asso ciation that in his opinion claims that tho amendment in any case would confer only tho right to vote for sena tors and representatives- -was equally erroneous.

THIN PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE PHOSPHATE Nothing IJko Via in Hit ro- 1'hon phut o to Iut on Urai, limit hy Mesh and to IncriNLHe Strent h. Vigor and None Force. Judging from the countless prep orations and treatments which arc continually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are cfteu due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is con tained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will sup ply this deficiency bo well as the or ganic phosphate known among drug gists as bitro-phosphate, which is in expensive and is sold by most all druggists under a guarantee of satis faction or mcney back. Hy feeding (ho nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements, bitro-phos-pbate should produce a welcome transformation in the appearance; the increase in weight frequently be ing astonishing. Increase in weight also carries with it a general improvement in the health. Nervoitsncss, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly al ways accompany excessive thinness, should sCon disappear, dull eyes brighten and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health. CAUTION: While Bltro-Phosphate is unsurpassed for the relief of ner vousness, general debility, etc., those taking it who do not desire to put on flesh should use extra care in avoid ing fat-producing foods.

R-J- RKYNOLDS TOBACCO CO., Winston-Salem, N.C Man mtttt frtntlon Mart mitit .n Ifru mistm Steels, Make the Maxwell Thrifty SEVERAL million dollnrs have been expended in provide more ele gance, more refinement, more comfort to the current Maxwells. It is in ever so many ways a superior appearing car; superior, too, in action. But not a single pound of weight has been added to burden the work of its great engine! Therefore, despite the many processes of improvement, it doesn't cost a penny more to run a Maxwell than it did"a year ago. The underlying principle of every Maxwell is to give economic transportation. This means light weight. But it means strong steels, as well. It is no easy trick to provide both lightness and strength in metal. Such a rare combination means high cost steels. And you would find, if you compared a Maxwell with any car, that it equaled that car pound for pound in fine metals. How such steels affect your pocketbook is obvious. 1. They are light in weight and hence give more mileage on a gallon of gasoline. 2. As they are finctrels they give long and un 'mtcmtptcil wear. Which are but two of many reasons for that definite tendency of world-wide friendship towards Maxwell. In six years nearly 400,000 have found their answer to the motor car question in a Maxwell. This year 100,000 Maxwells are being produced. This will supply but 60 of the demand. A. W. Walker Auto Co. Medford, Oregon PbarBoicy, 5S mm
