Well, Mrs. Page's experiences during the past 16 years are not exactly confined to pink teas and discussions of tho latest styles. The fact is, her life has been one of work, study, and the giving of much of her time to civic affairs and if any of the other eleven candidates for representative can show a broader grasp of public affairs and greater civic activity, they must have bean pretty busy men." Salem Capital Journal. "We feel sure that were Mrs. Page the choice of the people of this dis trict, she would with good .judgment and marked conscientious intelligence direct the affairs entrusted tu lier." "The Appeal would like to see Mrs. Alice H. Page nominated as a Marion eountv representative. Her number is 1)0,' Silverton Appeal. "She is a woman of poise and ad dress, broad-minded and well versed in public affairs." The Oregon Voter. "Mrs. Alice II. Page's views upon equal suffrage are certainly reasonable and expedient and should appeal to those who were opposed to woman suf frage as well as to those who urged it. Her appeal is aa open, frank aud thoughtful one." Aurora Observer. (Paid Advertisement.) REFUGEES FROM MEXICO San Francisco, May 17.

Madison Slaughter will ask the court to dismiss tho writ of probable cause for appeal filed by Defense Counsel Schooler, so he may start serving his fifteen yenr sentence immediately according to Sheriff Kiddie this afternoon. Kiddle asserted that Slaughter wishes to go to San' Quentin at once, where he must serve bis term for attacking Gertrude Lamson, 15 years old. The writ of probable cause must be dismissed before the minister can be gin serving his sentence. This does not mean that Slaughter will not appeal the case and fight for a new trial. On the contrary, Attorney Schooler is busy at the present prepar ing his papers and getting ready to argue the case in tho appellato court. The dismissal of the writ is merely a technical step. Oroville, Cal., May 17. Sentenced to 13 years in state 'b prison for attacking Gertrude l.amson, I!j years out. itev Madison Slaughter, Baptist minister of Chico, today prepared to enter fan Qtieutin within, the week. He will re main there, serving his sentence, while his attorneys aro fighting for a third trial. The new trial demand will be based on allegations of judicial error and . on the claim that the newspaper and pub lic opinion was so strong against Slaugh ter, that he could not get a fair trial. "I don't see how the judge could give him anything less," said Gertrude Lamson, tho girl on whoso word the pastor was convicted, when she heard oi the sentence. A new pastor for Slaughters' church will probably bo found soon. Gertrude Lamson is still in charge of the county, although several women have offered her a home. It is possible that she may return to the home of her parents, al though they have said that she is a liar and that uer story against Slaugh ter is false. Girl to he "Lost" Chico, Cal., May 17. Kev. Madison Slaughter's case having closed, Ger trude Lamson, 15, the girl, whose story sent the minister to prison for fifteen years, is to disappear. Her identity will be lost, according to her friends to day; and she will grow to womanhood under another name, with her charactor unsullied. ' Tho Chico Elks will not adopt her, as was stated several weeks ago. Scores of letters have been received from all over the state from reputable and wealthy women asking to adopt the girl. Officers plan to keep her final home a close secret. Jail Full of Brides in "Daphne" Picture DOROTHY OISH, A3 HEROINE, GOES TO AUCTION' BLOCK AND IS SOLD INTO MATRIMONY. PEES 10 BE GUESTSAT 0. A. C.

The brides did not misbehave them selves, in order to get into prison. They are there merely for safe-keeping, un til they take their places on the auc tion block and are sold 'by lot to tne Louisiana settlers who used wives to do the housework in their lonely homes. There are not enough beds, by half, in the great bare building used to house the brides-to-be, and they sleep on blankets spread upon the bare floor. Here Daphne spends a night of terri 'fied anticipation, followed by direful realization in the morning, when she is taken out aud exhibited to a crowd of eager bidders. Poor Daphne, despite her terror, ir. still keen enough to realize that the ugliest women will be loncest unclnim ed, and as each burly farmer comes up to her, she distorts her pretty face into a horrible grimace, crosses her eyei and assumed an exprossion of utter idiocy. This plan succeeds for a time, but Jamie D'Arey, watching her from a distance, sees through her ruse and pounces on her. There s naught for ner to do nut to go to Jamie s rustic cabin with him. bnt the priest is slow in arriving, and by the time he has come, Phillip, the suitor whom Daphne once scorned, has preceded him. knock ed Jamie into a corner, and is ready to stand- up with Daphne himself.

Churchill, superinten dent of public instruction, for send ing the boys and girls who won the capital prizes in the industrial . club work at the state fair last fall to the Oregon Agricultural college for the boys' and girls' summer school. Twenty-one children were successful in win ning these prizes nt the state fair last September. The capital prizes consist oi membership in the short course at the agricultural college wita all ex penses paid. It represents the highest award in each project offered in the industrial department at the state fair last year. The prizes are made pos sible through contributions made to Su perintendent Churchill for the Inrther ance of this work by public-spirited men and women of the state. Those who re ceived these rewards arc: Leland Char iley, Brownsboro; Uertrude Courtney, La Grande; Karl Stewart, Cottage Grove; Homer Bursell, Monmouth; Hazel Bursell, Monmouth; Clifford Cook, Yoncalla; Carmen Jones, Pendle ton; Esther Miller, Medford; Worrfa McGowan, Independence; Harold Rey nolds, Independence; Karl Cooley, Sa lem; L. M. Bowles, Dallas; Rudolph Mullinhoff, Boring; Teddy Fones, Carl ton; Kxie Morgan, The Dalles; Florence Wharton, Rose burg; Marion Lowe, Nys sa; Mae McDonald, Dallas; Muriel Blume, Albany; Paul Jaeger, Sherwood; Claus Charley, Brownsboro. The boys' and girls' club work which is carried on co-operatively by the state department of education, the extension service of the Oregon Agricultural col lege and the U. S. Bureau of Agricul ture, is increasing in interest to such an extent that clubs are being formed in every section of Oregon. Since the first of the year Superinteodent Church' has had two field workers, Mr. N. C. Maris and Mr. L. P. Harrington, con tinuously engaged in forming ctubs throughout the state. The work of the agricultural college in sending' to the members of these clubs, bulletins on how to select seed, care for the grow ing crops and also bulletins on canning and sewing, has made a wonderful ad vancement in the standard of the work done by the school children of Oregon. The example of Claus Charley, of Jack son county, shows what a wholesome in fluence one boy may have in this work. At the state fair in 1914 he won the state prize on his corn. The next week, through the efforts of the county school superintendent and one of the Medford banks, 60 boys of Jackson county were supplied with seed corn selected from Claus Charley's prize-winning corn. Each of these 50 boys raised from one eighth to one-fourth of an acre of corn, the amount which each noy planted be ing determined by the age of the boy. The exhibits of corn coming from these boys to the state fair in 1915 were said by the judges to exceed in quality tuny luu per cent the corn exhibit of 1913. Similar incidents can be told of many other boys throughout the stute, and of many girls enrolled in the cun ning and the sewing clubs.

Parents day, or visiting daj at the Silverton schools, whieh was oliserved on Friday proved very mui h of a sue- I'enu. in tliM mi 'Mi rinrhmxl nt z:i I vis itors attending. Tiie exhibits of thu work done hy the pupils iu eneli grade was attractively lirunged aoout the various rooms and gave every one an opportunity to inspect mwli of the every day work of the pupils in their different studies. The hand work of the little folks in the old school build ing was especially inte'resting. In the higher grades tho lessons for the larger pupils were represented, while in a number of the rooms wero displayed relief maps and booklets on various subjects, made by the children some of which were very ittnictive. The niaps showing where the different products aro raised or obtained in each section and illustrated a bit of each kind of grain, minternl, ore, wool, cotton, and precious metals, etc., with tho pictures of stock of all kinds were truly works of art and very instructive in that line of study. ThU exhibit was of val ue in that it give the parents an op portunity to see the work of their own children and compared with that of others in the same grade. Especially creditable exhibits were made by the domestic science ami manual training departments of the high school. In the former a number of garments mndo by the young ladies of this school gave evidence of the prieticnl benefit of this department. The manual training exhibit imluded a nice variety of ar ticles of furniture ranging from font stools to library tables, and was one of the finest features, being the more creditable because of the fact that the boys who did the work have had less than a years training in this depart ment. Dainty refreshments were serv ed all who visited tho domestic science cooking department, and was much ap preciated by the mothers who realize the practical good to lie le lined from actual experience. That parents vis iting day may be made a permanent feature of each school year is planned 0- thus in charge and is an excellent idei, as y. affords an opportunity for them to become acquainted with tiie work of the school and also to meet the teachers of their children.

HOT WATER AND "ANURIC BEFORE MEALS-AND HEALTH All people in America and especially those who are past middle age are prone to eat too much meat and in conse quence deposit lime-salts in their arter ies, veins and joints. They often suffer from twinges of rheumatism or lumba go, sometimes from gout, swollen hands or feet. Such people are not always able to exereiae sufficiently in the out door air or drink enough pure water in order to sweat freely ami excrete im purities through the skin. Irr. Fierce has conducted experiments aud thor oughly tested a uric acid solvent nt his Invalids' Hotel and Murgical Institute which he is convinced is many times mora potent than litliia this he nniiK'il "Annric." It ran be had at almost all drue stores by simply asking for Hr. Pierce's Anrrie. for kidneys or back ache. It will overcome such conditions as rheumatism, dropsical swellings, eidd extremities, scalding and burning mine anil sleeplessness due to constant need of getting out of bed nt night. Our grandmothers hnvn told our mothers, and our mothers have in turn instructed us that in ease of sickness, resort to Dr. Tierce's dependable home hold prescriptions. These nedicines an put up for sale by druggists have never been recoui mended as "cure-alls," but. only as superior remedies for certain common and easily-recognized diseases. Had these medicines been adopted to all classes and forms of chronic diseased there would have been no necessity for organi.ing a competent staff of expert, physician and surgeons, to net in tho treatment of difficult, obscure and com plicated cases of chronic diseases, an l)r.
