LIFE OF CIRCUS GIRLS
; i ViH ' ' IK info
LIFE BEHIND SCENES LIKE
What about tho circus girl f Isn't'
Bhe an impossible person, of hard face
and uncertain morals!
These aro some of the questions that
will be asked next Saturday by tho j
throngs of sightseers who will crowd I
the sidewalks durinir tho moraine hour i
when tho circus parado is passing, and
. . .'I
who will visit tiio show grounds of the
Barnnm & Bailey Greatest IShcw on
Karth during the afternoon or even
ing. In the host of nearly 1,100 persons
who lire attached to the l'armim &,
Hailcy circus this season, nearly 400 of
them ar young womon, either ring per
formers or ballet girls. Hence it can
easily be understood that the women
are one of the most important adjuncts
of the circus.
As a matter of fact the majority of
circus girls are the most refreshing,
the healthiest and the cleanest minded
young women ever assembled together.
Many of the so-called 'girls" are mar
ried women with young daughters and
sons, who are also with the circus.
There is little difference between the
girls "of the circus and the ordinary,
healthy girls who live in comt'urtablc,
refined homes, except that tho life ot
the circus girl is in the open, where she
has a be'.ter opportunity to develop
both "physically and mentally.
(Continued rTom Page One.)
French have scored some of the most
important gains of the whole Homme
offensive. They have increased the
pressure on Peronne and south of the
river have drawn so close to the Chaul-nes-Peronue
railway that the line of
communication is now under hot fire
and useless to the Germans.
The Germans attempted an attack on
Fleury northeast of Verdun last night.
French fire held the enemy to their
trenches at most places. Forty prisoners
were taken. In Lorraine a surprise. at
tack by the Germans was stopped.
Capture Much Food Stuff.
Bucharest, Sept. 6. Rumanian troops
have captured the Trnnsylvanian town
of Scpri Seep Gyorgi, in the Merisor
valley, taking 500 wagons, fqodstuffs
and forage, it wag officially announced
today.
In Monday's fighting small encounters
occurred all along the upper Maros val
ley in northeastern Transylvania. The
Rumanians took (i27 prisoners.
The German-Bulgarian nttacks
against tho bridgehead of Tutrnkan on
"the Danube were repulsed. ( I ho Her
mans announced the capture of ad
vanced positions at Tutrakau.)
After lively fighting the Rumanians
occupies tne region ot BorzeeKot ana
the heights to the west, taking 154
prisoners. .
THE FIRST STEP
Usually the first indication of a
lowering of health is found in the
bowels and liver. Something goes
wrong we cat too much, or work
too hard and the bowel action
weakens or the liver is sluggish.
That heavy feeling on arising in
the morning, dryness of the
throat, with bad taste, a slight
headache, dull eyes all show that
food has fermented in the intes
tines, and that the body is man
ufacturing poisons instead of
good blood.
Clear it all out. Give the
stomach and bowels a fresh start.
Encourage the liver to go to
work. Manalin docs all of this,
without griping or weakening.
It's the ideal laxative and liver
tonic, because it follows Nature's
plan, without discomfort, inflam
mation or forming a habit. Con
stipation may be overcome with
its use.

HEALTIJY AND MORAL
BIG FAMILY IN CAMP
Life behind the reil curtain which
separates tho dressing rooms from the
rest of the circus is not unlike that of
a big family in camp. Here the women
do their own sewing, their laundry,
their reading and writing and the in
struc'.ing of their young children. No
body molests them, no profanity is al
luvveu iu ri-ucu meir ears, uuu liiu tti-
uiosphere in which they live is as re
fined and respectable as it would be
in the best regulated home. Circus
. L lL.' .1 il.
folks arc home loving, family people
at heart and not at all like the mis
guided public is prone to consider them.
Many entire families ranging from
grandparents to year old children trav
el with the liarnum & Bailey circus
and enjoy all the comforts and privacy
of home life. In some of the ring acts
three generations of a family aro per
forming at the same time. Most of the
really great circus performers of today
are descendants of a long line of cir
cus ancestors, and their success in their
chosen field is largely due to the her
itage of clean living and clean think
ing that has been handed down from
generation to generation.
On account of the new, Oriental spes-
tacular display, "Persin, or the Pa
geants of the Thousand and One
Nights," tho circus employs more girls
this season than ever before in its his
tory.
Fighting is going on along the whole
Uobrudia frontier. A German-Bulgar

Took Four Years to
Cross Continent
San Francisco, Sept. S. John A. De
lion, Philadelphia, established a trans
'lontinental transportation kecord to
day when he was pushed up to the
city, hall in his "donkeymobile," the
motive power of which consumes hay
instead of gasoline. The record Delion
established is the rocord for slowness.
The trip across the continent consum
ed four years and Delion says he hur-
neii, at tuat.
The "donkeymobile" is an automobile-appearing
vehicle, pushed by a
donkey pushed, not pulled. The jaunt
was made on a bet.
Several accidents marred the long
journey. While Delion was crossing
the Arizona desert, his motive power
kicked him in the head anil rendered
him unconscious tor several hours.
Want to Know Why
Governor Was Removed
San Francisco, Sept. 5. Just what
circumstances caused Captain William
J. Maxwell, governor of Guam, to be
removed by a subordinate, Lieutenant
Commander William P. Cronan, and
sent to the naval hospital at Washing
ton, the navy department intends to
learn. Captain .William B. Shoemaker
is here today awaiting a steamer to
take him to Guam where he can make
a detniled inquiry. Cronan 's action fol
lowed immediately his arrivel in Guam
where he was sent as a disciplinary
measure on account of prominence in
a departmental dissention. His friends
say that he found the governor in a
state of mental collapse, and took the
action to meet the emergency, himself
temporarily appointing Captain C.
Smith as governor.
The fellow who marries for money
naturally expects to have it thrown up
to him.

tically complete returns today
showed that D. W. Davis, of
American Falls, received the
republican nominataion for gov
ernor in yesterday's state
primaries.
Addison T. Smith was renom
inated for representative in
congress. Former Congressman
Burton L. French defeated
Congressman Robert McCracken
for the nomination.

Governor Alexander without
opposition and named

Stanley
for -congress.
In Spite of All This
Villa Still
Lives
Headquarters California National
Guard, Nogalcs, Ariz., Sept. 6. Fran
cisco Villa was a human arsenal weigh
ing nearly a ton, and has survived
eight bullet wounds; thirty hangings
and several beheadings, if California
troopers have not been-made victims
of misrepresentation by Mexican curio
venders.
When pay day came around there
was a rush of natives from across the
international line with "rare relics"
of six. years rebellion in the south
Soft nosed bullets, some blood stained,
were sold by the dozens under the rep
resentation that they had been reniov
ed from, the body of Villa. Likewise
many troopers parted with 50 cents
"Mex" for noosed ropes that nnd
hanged the bandit leader. Several sol
dicrs bought swords of an ancient pat
tern, reputed to have been used at tho
beheading of the bandit cmef.
Most of the gruesome relics now re
pose in the homes of the state soldiers
as mementoes of the "Mexican cam
paign."
Johnson Will Not Stump
Oregon for Hughes
Sacramento, C'al., Sept. 6. Governor
Hiram Johnson will not make a speak
ing tour of Oregon in behalf of Charles
i.. iltigbcs. While this decision was not
announced by the governor, the infor
mation came today from a reliable
source. It was pointed out that the
governor is in need of rest following
his hard campaign for the republican
nomination for the senatorship and
when this recuperative period is up he
will have to plunge into bis own cam
paign against George S. Patton, the
democratic candidate. The governor
has not yet replied to the Hughes cam
paign committee of Oregon which ex
tended him the invitation to stump
that state, but he will probably answer
that it will be impossible for him to
make the tour.
Eugene Gets Ready for
Lane County Fair

in order to stand trial on a misdemean
or charge, A. If. Brown pleaded guilty
to a charge of which he said he is in
nocent in police court today.

"September 8 for trial," quoth the
court.
"Oh. I guess I'll plead guilty and
have it over with," Urown interposed.
"I have an engagement September 8.
By the way, how much will it cost?"
"About two dollars," said his hon
or. "All right, I'm guilty," Browq con
cluded. Hughes Takes a Rest
Makes No Speeches Today
By Perry Arnold
(United Press staff correspondent)
Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. (1. Today was
rest day for Candidate Hughes. Not
a single speech was schcdnlcd, nnd the
nominee and his wife planned to take
things easy preparatory to a strenuous
five day windup to his transcontinental
trip in New England and New oYrk.
From now on Hughes plans to em
phasize and concentrate his criticism
of what he terms the tendency of the
democratic administration to overthrow
the "rule of reason in government,"
laying particular stress on the recent
eight hour law rushed through congress
in settlement of tho threatened rail
road strike.
Japan to Dominate
Pacific Ocean Trade
Tokio, Aug. 15. (By mail) Japa
nese shipping interests will soon dom
inate the Pacific unless the United
States shakes off her indifference,
Soichiro Asano, president of the Ori
ental Steamship company (Toyo Kiscn
Kaisha), declared today.
"Our company has been taking step
to triple it tonnags to American
ports," he said, "and when the plans
or other Japanese companies are de
veloped, Japanese steamers will be able
to carry most of the trans-Pacific trade
Formerly Japanese steamers carried
only twenty per cent of the trade and
the foreign vessels earned $4(1,000,000
in freight a year." '

German Ambassador's
American Wife Here First
Time Since War Began
This is tho first viBit Countess von
Bernstorff has made to Amorica since
the war began. Before her marriage
the wife of the German ambassador,
who arrived on the S-ndinaviun-American
liner Frederick VII, was Miss
Luckcmeyer of New York. She wns in
Germany at the outbreak of the Euro
pean war and stayed there aiding the

asked if his wifo had anything to say
about the conditions in Germany, of
fered to act aa intermediary between
the reporters and his wife. "My
dear," he said, "theso gentlemen
would like to know that you have noth
ing to say." So the countess had
nothing to say.
BUSINESS OUTLOOK OOOD
COMMERCIAL AGENT SAYS
A sound basis for prosperous times in
Oregon in the coming full and winter
is diselassed in a mass of reports just
received by William Young, manager of
the Portland office of K. G. Dun & Co,
in response to inquiries sent to every
bank in the state outside of this city
and to a large number of important mer
cantile firms.
They were asked for brief reports as
to the size of the lending crops, compar
ed with last year, the percentage of
gam or Joss in lumber output, the in
crease or decrease in net returns to pro
duc.ers and a summary of present busi
ness conditions and prospects.
Income Gains, Prospects Bright.
From these reports it is found that
the income of the producing sections
has been largely increased by the large

BOYS BUY CO-OPERATIVELY
Two or more boys in the Oregon pig
feeding contest may join in buying a
pair of steelyards that will weigh ns
much as 400 to 1,000 pounds, and each
member be allowed to use them. In
the contest it requires that all pigs
should be weighed each week and that
the feed be weighed. In no other
way, says I. J. Allen, agent of the
state pig club project, can the contest
ant hope to get maximum results
from his contest. Ho must know what
gains the pigs are making weekly nnd
how much feed- it takes to make
the gains.

"The Pawn of Fnte" deals with the
