The fact thnt it actually removes the roots before one "a very eyes as wcM as the surface hairs, is of course mainly responsible or its large and increasing sale. The new method is not to be compared at all with the usual depilatory, electrical or other processes. It is entirely safe, non-irritating, non-poisonous, odorless -and instantaneous! A stick of phelac tine, used in accordance with the sim ple instructions which accompany it, can be purchased anywhere on a money buck basis, so certain is it to satisfy and delight the user. Tho high price of leather has driven John Ferguson, shoemaker of Canyon City, to resort to material other than leather for hia work. He has been half-soling shoes with old auto tires, nnd tho satisfaction is so complete that leather is no longer a competitor. rr7 f?rr nozeiJt.7ranci Qlnion$qtiare-SarC7rancisco 4n ike center cf the City's Life aniGlor TatesromZ9per Day. -oooT&oTtts: Appreciated by 7)iscriminaUng Tracers tielorldovcr. ncyement Warm. ilanaaement (lames llbods ft I Take It Along-- W Li , - ' Travelers who find it better for their health to abstain from coffee, (and there are many), carry a tin of Instant Postum and prepare their own bever age at table.

T( IGHT I IB fi if m fl: H a m i SHIPLEY'S 1 You Will Have a Delightful Evening and Also Help the Red Cross Tomorrow nijjht the, big Red Cross revival of the Klks' recent smashing hit, "Get-Rich-Ouick Wallhigford ' ' will bo staged at the Grand with all its former pristine glory. If such a thing is possiuie tomorrow night 's per formance will be even better 'than the original production, It is hard to imag ine anything .more perfect than per fection. But the all-star cast is nil puffed up with patriotism, and they expect to play to a big patriotic audi ence. The psychological effect of this combination has been to turn the bril liant bunch of Klk eommediang into veritable laugh producing demons, and it, is quite possible that the impossible may happen. For several days, now, the modest press agent has 'been raving about what a whale of a show " Walling ford " is, and what an onslaught of merriment tomorrow night's presenta tion of the great comedy will bring with it. Yon can't "cali" the press agent. The Klks' production ot " W nll ingford" is part of the history of the town the brightest, gladdest, happiest page in our local theatrical lore. Pick out any of your friends who were pres ent when " Wallingford " played to. the two biggest audiences that ever packed the Grand, nnd they will tell you that you must accept the state ments of t!o Red Cross pen pusher at their face value. There is no come back. " Wallingfoid" is "there!" And that 's where yon ought to be tomor row evening when the curtain rises. You will be doing your country an actual service by seeing "Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford" tomorrow. No body but the Red Cross gets a nickle out of the play. All expenses and ser vices connected with the production have been donated. The- whole thing is a present to the society, and the full j one hundred per cent of the price of vour ticket will go to the local Ked i Cross treasurer. I By actual count the Elks production lof ''Wallingford" three weeks ago inlnved to more than two thirds ot the I theater going population of Salem. To 'cot a full house for the Red Cross to ! morrow night wc have to count partly, of course, on the other one third, but 'mostly on the great bulk of citizens !who are not regular patrons of Ktc ! theater, but who nevertheless ought to isee this play, and who, we feel, will I take advantage of the opportunity of seeing it for nothing by contributing the price of a seat to the Rer Cross so ciety. I Here, patriots, is the best chance 'you ever had to do yourself and the cause a good turn at the same time- i We are handing out to you a golden opportunity on a silver platter. Grab lit! Here's the door, wide open. Come through! Here's your ferry, Come across! You can't do your country any good merely by waving the American I flag. You can 't swell the coffers of the Ked Cross by wearing a button I saying: "There's a hundred million others like me," if you keep your mon ey in your pocket. Invest now, in four ib'its or six bits or a dollar's worth of joy for yourself, by seeing "Walling ford." You keep the joy, and let the Ked Cross keep the change.

Many Letter Show Desperation In Germany By William Philip Simms (United Tress staff correspondent) With the British Armies in the Field April 5 (By mail) Germany's evident intention of trying for a "short, sharp decisive struggle" as chronicled by neutral observers in Berlin, is daily making itself visible in black and white out here. Here is an extract from a captured letier, dealing with recruiting: . "There is a general clearance now; everyone who can move his legs is passed fit for service in the field. Kv ervbody is now being called up. Kven those who at first were declared quite unfit have all been taken." The reason for this levee on masse seems to be, imiieated.ju ,the following letters, also taken from captured Ger mans: ,i "Altoua Want is now only begin ning the hunt for coal and the short age of food. Every day, turnips, not even cabbage- A serious epidemic of virulent small pox (Sehwarze Pocken) has broken out in Hamburg, but has not. reached Altoua yet." "Berlin We still have no coal here and last week there was no bread to be had without a struggle. 1 stood in the snow and cold wind for an hour and a half and was about the tenth in the queue. Suddenly the women rushed through the door like beasts of prey and splinters of glass flew about. 1 got in with the second batch and secured half a loaf the very last piece of bread.
