1t is an empress that Jack Mel
vile fights for and finally wins in
"The Empress and the Soldier to
be presented by the Shirley Co,
the coming week The play Is in
some respects similar to The Pris-
oner of Zenda," but is more pleas
ing in some respects. The scene
Is laid in the mythical empire of
Zenobia, where Jack Melville and
Ted Blackburn, two Americans,
find commissions In the army. Mel
vile falls in love with the En-
press Euphrene, then married to a
worthless clod whose only claim to
respect is his crown. Melville has
a sister and she plans secret
marriage with Blackburn and goes
to the meeting place where the
emperor meets her and makes love
to her. Frightened, she falls in
faint and her brother who hears
of the matter concludes the en-
perors action calls for vengeance.
He meets the latter and duel
Is arranged but II comes to sud
den end when the emperor Is
stricken down by heart failure,
The Americans return to their
homes but Cupid finally induces
Melville to return to Zenobia
where he renews his suit and wins
an empress for a bride. Miss Shir-
ley will play the role of Euphrene
and will be supported by a strong
cast, Allen Holuber as Jack Mel
Vile, Robert Siddell as Ted, Miss
Won Waldron as MAZDA Blackburn,
Owen NJ. Williamson as the EN-
peror, and Jack AmOry as a south
ern colonel have prominent and
well suited roles. The play calls
for court costumes and brilliant
uniforms as well as more than or.
binary stage settings. The ladies'
who attend the performance to-
morrow evening will be presented
with photographs of Owen M. Will

BALD HEADS NOT WANTED.
Badness Is Too Generally Considered
Sign of Advanced Age.

A bald headed person does not have
an equal chance with one blessed with
healthy head Of hair, because bald
ness Is too generally accepted as an
indication of age. Many large cor
poratlons have established an age
limit and refuse to take men over 35
years of age as new employees.
Almost 65 per cent of bald headed
people may regain good head OF
healthy hair II they will follow our
advice and accept our offer We have
a remedy that we positively guarantee
to grow hair on any head, unless the
roots Of the hair are entirely dead,
their follicles closed, and the scalp
has become glazed and shiny. We
want people to try this remedy at our
risk, with the distinct understanding
that unless 1t does exactly what we
claim 1t will and gives satisfaction in
every respect, we shall make no
charge for the remedy used during
the trial.
We know exactly what we are
talking about, and with this offer
back of our statements no one should
scott doubt our word or hesitate to
put our remedy to an actual test.
We want everyone in Pendleton
who is suffering from any scalp or
hair trouble, dandruff falling hair or
badness, to try our Rexall "93" Hair
Tonic. We want them to use 1t reg
ularly-say until three bottles have
been used--and II it does not eradicate
dandruff, cleanse and refresh the
scalp. tighten the hair in its roots and
grow new hair, we will return every
cent paid us for the remedy for the
mere asking. There Is no formality
expected. and we exact no obligation
from the user whatever.
We are established right here in
Pendleton, and make this offer with
n full understanding that our business
success entirely depends upon the sort
of treatment we accord our CUSTOM
ers. and we would not dare make the
above offer unless we were positively
