and were received by the state board
of trade and the chamber of commerce.
They were driven through the de-
stroyed district and were given a re-
ception in the evening at the Ferry
building. Addresses were made by the
president and secretary of the state
board and by the president Of the
chamber of commerce..
San jose was the next stopover,

lar fashion and from there they went
to Del Monte and Paso Robles. They

rived in Los Angeles at o'clock yes

Tells Of Tacoma's Growth
The first part of this week will be
given to excursions planned for the
visitors by their Los Angeles hosts.
san Diego, Redlands, Pasadena, Mount
Lowe will be visited and some Of the
members of the party are planning
trips to Mexico.
While, as Mr.. Pratt said, the object
of the expedition is not entirely to
boost Tacoma, all the excursionists
have dropped n few little suggestions
along the way as to the prominence of
Tacoma as a desirable place to live.
Thousands of the Watch Tacoma
Grow" placards have been distributed
and almost any of the travellers will
blushingly admit, If pressed, that Ia
coma is really the best place on
earth.
"We've got lumber, coal, flour, fish
and meat" said Henry Mohr of the
Mohr Hardware company, land there
is absolutely no limit to our possibili-
ties Of growth. The city has doubled
in size in the last three years and has
increased since 1900 from a population
of $1,000 to 100000. 1t is the greatest
manufacturing center west of Chicago
and there is nothing that we can't
make and nothing that we can't do
that is that anybody else can do.
Los Angeles is q beautiful city and
of course when we brag about Tacoma
we do not disparage the other coast
cities They are all wonders. The
misfortune of poor Frisco is going to
have a wonderfully livening effect on
the other cities and L think they all
are beginning to feel the growth al
ready"
This evening the visitors, many of
whom have their wives with them on
the trip, will hear Rev. Robert ]. Bur-
dette at the Temple Auditorium as the
guests or the chamber of commerce.

Burns

A good remedy for burns Is wanteo.
There are a number on the market but
the one which l found of most value is
known as Anti-phlogistine. 1t should
be applied very thick. and it should be
removed for at least two days. The
best way to remove 1t is with absorbent
cotton soaked in warm water, in which
few drops of carbolic acid may be
added

Sore Feet

Sore feet may be due to any number
of causes, but the usual time when
people suffer from that condition is
during the warm season. In order to
more or less alleviate the condition
bathe the feet in cold water every
morning, and every other day use soap
and hot water Every time you use
soap and hot water change the stock
ings, and occasionally dust a little
talcum powder in the shoes.

Consumption
Our readers will probably recollect
the Item which appeared in these
columns concerning the Bensonizer
treatment. Since its appearance | have
read two letters which speak In terms
of high praise OF that invention; in
fact to judge from the tenor of tho
letters, the writer's thereof were saved
by the Bensonizer from condition
which all physicians to whom they ap-

any of our readers have taken the treat

Fred willard, the man OF mystery,
Will give an act. Jack O'Brien has an
entirely new and clever little act which
he win give at the benefit In view of
his coming fight with Burns during
Fiesta week his appearance will give
the desired opportunity to the many
who wish to see him outside of a prize
ring. He will not box and his act will
be refined monologue, probably accom-
panied by moving pictures.
Evan Baldwin of the Mission theater
and Miss Roso Marsten, the leading
woman OF the Mission stock company,
will give n clever little sketch, Dor
othy Out OF College" The act was fea-
tured at the Orpheum last season.
Nellie Montgomery the petite sou
brette of the Fischer company, and
Richard b. Harrison, another Orpheum
idol in Paul Lawrence Dunbar's read
ings, specialties from the Orpheum and
from the other local play houses and
many others have volunteered and the
program will be a magnificent one.
The appearance of these noted people
In acts selected by themselves will give
local theater gors q chance to see them
In some of their most clever perform
ances and in many cases to see them
as they are in their homes.
The funds will be competently han
died and immediate relief promised.
Owing to the nature of the explosion
many of the victims, in fact, three
fourths OF them, have been put on the
operating table and their limbs ampu-
tated. Many of them will never walk
again. Many of them will be afflicted
for life. A small sum of money to them
will rob the deadly situation to them
of some of its bitterness and make
prospect of life and slow recovery Just
little brighter and more desirable.

An amendment in freight ra-
tes has been adopted by the rail-
roads and took effect last Tues
day. A minimum charge of 4octs
regardless of weight up to 20 lbs.
will be prevalent under this chan
ge. While such is the case it is
advisable to send packages of
light weight to nearly points by
express; this being the cheapest
way. For instance. on a package
of 5 pounds sent to Yankton or
Geddes by freight the charge
would be 40 cents, this being the
lowest rate by freight, would
otherwise cost IS cents by ex-
press.

constipation are quickly relieved by

Here's something that is of in
terest to the economical buyers,
who are looking for bargains: We
have in our yard large complete
stock of window screens and
screen doors of all possible sizes:
We sell them at 8 cents per square
foot at our yard: the catalogue
houses are selling them at 9 cents
per square foot and you pay the
freight of course. When you buy
these of us, you have the advanta-
ge of buying cheaper and select
ing just what you want; when buy
ing of the catalogue house you
have the disadvantage of higher
price on the goods, waiting Ia
days before you receive them and
even them you run chances that
you will not be satisfied which
means another delay IA days in
which time the flies and mosqui-
toes and other insects will take
possession of YOUR house. This is
the point you should consider.
