MRS, SPRtCKElS
UNDERGOES OPERATION

The Examiner says: Society was
shocked at the news received yesterday
that beautiful and popular Mrs. Jack
Spreckels had been stricken last Mon
day with severe attack of appendicitis
and had undergone an operation at the
Adler Sanitariunn. While apparently in
the most robust health, Mrs. Spreckels
was seized with a violent illness last
Monday, which was pronounced appen-
dicitis by the physician summoned to
attend her.
Her condition was so serious that an
operation was said to be her only
chance for recovery, and she was I'M
mediately taken to the .sanitarium. The
removal of the appendix was entirely
successful, but, when accomplished, left
the sufferer in a much weakened condi-
ton, from which it is hoped, however
that her splendid constitution will aid
her to recovery.
Late last night Mrs. Spreckels was
said to be doing we'll and to have
progressed so far toward her normal
state of health during the day that she
was permitted to have a simple lunch
con of chicken.

value or beauty.
With such signs removed as can be
readily reached by the women of the
country in the manner above limited at,
and with postal-card campaign start
ed toward the more extensive offenders.
the way will open up for an earnest
crusade, to foster which is the duty and
privilege of the American League for
Civic Improvement.
In England an organization has long
been devoted to the work of fighting
this evil. It is Familiarity known by it's
initials as ''Scapa,'' which is, being in
terpreted, society for Controlling
Abuses in Public Advertising"
That organized work is needed is in
dictated by the existence of national
organization of bill-posters, which will
at once combat any effort to displace
any signs. Indeed, this society has al
ready fcstered opposition, by the vari-
Gus devices of the lawyer, to Boston's
law, which was framed to Gisplace the
signs that obtrude upon parks and
parkways. Thus the excellent law, do
ing no damage to legitimate signs, is
kept imperative while the Park Com
missioners fight for the rights of the
people through the courts. and the peo-
pie themselves learn to act on the ad-
vertisers, if not on the men who have
erected the billboards.
1 suggest that the women in each
community propose to their "men
folks, after interesting them in this
righteous campaign for beauty and in
creased property value, the enactment
of local laws and regulations control
ling the billboard nuisance, so that a
logical system of preventing abuses
may be instituted. I will gladly reply
to any inquiries upon this point.
Let me suggest that women away on
summer vacations, whose enjoyment OF
natural scenery is interfered with by
bad signs in the rest-places. act upon
advertisers by the methods given in the
concrete instances above, and thus keer
the good work going wherever they
may be.-Ladies' Home Journal.

To make sure that the women of
America understand their power in
enforcing the removal of offensive ad-

tell this month of some successful in
dividual efforts that women have made
sometimes but one woman-to rid
their towns of these signs. These in

STEAMER ILWACO
ON ISLAND ROUTE
EXPERIMENT IN INTER.
EST OF BELLINGHAM
Owners Will Give the Route Fair
Trial Without Any Subsidy or
Mail Contract Not Def-
nftely Decided Upon.

The steamer nwaco, owned by
~ L. D. Pike, of East Sound, and
Captain E. H. Simpson, of Bel
lingham, begar operating on the Bel
lingham-Friday Harbor route, via
Orcas island points, last Monday
morning. Her schedule has not been
definitely decided upon but it is ex-
pected that her route will include all
Orcas island points now touched by
the steamer Islander, with the posi-
BILE exception of Deer Harbor and
West Sound, which may be cut out in
order that Lopez may be included.
The Hwaco leaves here Monday,
Wednesday and Friday mornings at
six o'clock and reaches Bellingham
about 11:3O, leaving there shortly af-
terward for Point Roberts and Blaine.
She leaves Blaine, Tuesday, Thursday
and Saturday mornings at six O clock,
reaching Bellingham about eleven,
leaving there for island points at
twelve and reaching here about six.
Last Tuesday she made the run from
Bellingham, via all Orcas ports, in a
little less than five hours and a half.
The nwaco is considerably faster
than either of the other steamers on
the Bellingham route but her passen-
ger accommoda tions at present are
much inferior to those of the mail
boats. She is about 100 feet in length
and 12O tons gross and 81 net tons
burden.

Milk the Cheapest Food

Mr.. w. F. McSparran urges the
comparative cheapness of milk as q
food, as others have done in a gener-
al way. But he goes at the subject
in very terse way, in recent letter
to the Jersey Bulletin, and says: NWe
are told that quart OF good milk has
as much nutriment as aquart of oys
ters, pound Of beef or seven or eight
eggs, and perhaps half peck of some
of the predigested, premeditated
breakfast foods. Do we insist that
the city visitor shall give lodgment in
his mind to these nutritive facts :? Do
we compare prices for him ? A quart
of milk 6 cents, ditto of oysters 30
cents; pound of beef, average Is
cents; seven eggs Is cents; breakfast
foods about Is cents peck. OF
course we will not too strenuously in
sistthat his family shall use less beet,
beans, beets, potatoes, corn and cab
bage and fewer eggs, but that ne
shall use more milk. Such booms
will help the COW and not hurt the
customer. It is legitimate and right
that we should do such booming OF
the COW and her pure, clean, rich
nroducts-and then we must deliver
the goods. If we talk about the
wholesomeness and cheapness OF pure
milk. we must make our talk good
and the milk according to specifica-
tions."
