Bud Fisher jumped the old-time rut when he invented
Jeff and Mutt For years, with that amusing pair, he's
chased away the people's care, and made them laugh
ana inrow tneir hats, and cackle till
they broke their slats. Tho tired,
the sad, the weak, the worn, have
laughed with Bud, and ceased to
mourn; the lame, the halt; the blind,
the deaf, have whooped with glee
o'er Mutt and Jeff. Where does he
find the joyous jests which break the
buttons from our vests? You'd
think the fount would have to fail,
but never once has he been stale.
When he sits down to hatch a plot
in which his heroes will be caught;
he lights his pipe, and soon a joke
emerges from Tuxedo smoke. He
swears by "Tux" and so will you,.

PATHE WEEKLY

To the Voters of Marion County:
I have previously told you of my
qualifications and reasons for seeking
the nomination to the lower house of
the legislature. .1 herewith submit un
solicited comments of the public press
for your consideration
"When a woman announces for a
public office, the question naturally
arises as to what experience she has
had in public affairs. 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.

Sentenced for 15 Years Will
Serve Time While His Ap
peal Is Pending
Oroville, Cal., May 17. Rev. 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.

Watch for the big show Friday and Saturday
' .4 : I
A jail full of brides is an unusual
feature of the new Fine Arts-Triangle
feature, "Daphne and the Pirate," in
which Dorothy Gish and Elliott Dex
ter have the leading roles.
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.
Dnphne, too, is willing now, and Jamie
loses his bargain.

OREGON Friday and Saturday
Arrangements have just Been com
pleted by J. A. 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.
At a meeting of the council on Fri
day evening of last week, the return

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. Fierce 's maintains in his Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute. Of hit
home remedies the most widely known
are his "Favorite Prescription" for
womanly troubles and run down condi
tions peculiar to the womanly sex; hi-i
"(iolden Medical Discovery," the great
est of nil herbal system tonics and vital
izes, for stomach, liver and blood din
