IS ARRESTED BY
SHERIFF TERRILL
The Lark Kvans case took another
sensational turn late this forenoon
when on a complaint sworn to by Dis
trict Attorney O. 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. Adv.tf

Kuiiizution. I should like to submit
the following statements;
Darin ir the nine wars of activity

drinking fountain on the upper floor
of tho buildiiur. added to the comfort
of the rest room. piir-hned :I0 small

cle also were instrumental in introducing-
milk into the school, as many
as tM pupils taking milk. At the
present time about 2.') are usiinr milk.
This is done at recess time. The
women of the circle were verv faith
ful in helping- durini: Junior lied Cross
lavs, as were the women of all the
circles in their respective schools.
The Jackson school I'nrent-Teuch-er
circle, while onrnni.ed but about
half the length of time of some of
the other circles, has purchased a
piano, graveled portions of the
grounds, provided indoor baseball
ami other grames, ami will, before
school closes, have some gin lit strides
for the smaller children. Kach mem
ber at the December meeting donated
a cup and saucer for use at the
school. This circle was very active
in Junior Rod Cross work.
Dnrintr the six vears of activity
the Lincoln Parent-Teacher circle has
expended between $lo0 and $"00 foi
tho benefit of their school in beau
tifying; the grounds, planting' maple
trees, purchasing a piano, large
clocks. 100 chairs (the chairs to be
used at assembly periods); also
bought war saving stamps. A grout

The Roosevelt I'lirt-nl -Teacher cir-

Tho Junior Thrift exhibit showing

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.
