Close shaves would be of more

will not permit of shaving often.

with it's use after shaving. It's pub

almost exclusively to it's remarka.

it stops the itching at once and

MAYOR PRATT
A SUFFRAG|ST
TELLS THEM so AT BANQUET
IN HONOR OF NATIONAL WIS.,
ITORS-SPOkANE GAvEl FOR
REV. ANNA SHAW.

If women vote and fill office as
acceptably as they took care of the
national equal suffrage delegation
yesterday it might be the best
thing for the country for men to
step aside for while and let them
straighten things out. The net re-
suit of the days program was that
a train load of brainy women from
the great cities of the country left
Spokane with memory of this
city and an appreciation of it that
will prove as valuable an asset as
any publicity proposition put forth,
more so. in fact, because women
remember longer and are not back
ward about mentioning their feel
ings.
Mayor Pratt added the capsheaf
of the days success when he de-
clared himself for equal suffrage in
welcoming the guests at the ban
quet. He predicted the triumph of
the suffrage campaign the country
over and closed his address by pre-
senting Rev. Anna Shaw with a
gavel made of wood from the four
suffrage states--Idaho, Utah, Colo
RADIO and Wyoming. The gavel, with
its significance, came from the
Spokane association. This gavel
will rule the convention.
The formalities of the day closed
with the meeting at First M. E.
church, where various leaders of
the delegation spoke on different
phases of the work. Charlotte Per-
kins Gilman, the writer, recited
poems. The local feature of the
day was furnished by Miss Nellie
Hemingway, the Spokane high
school girl, with a rendition of the
essay on equal suffrage with which
she won first prize in the contest
arranged by Mrs. May Arkwright
Hutton.
Every member of the Spokane
Equal Suffrage association is en-
titled to especial cerdit, both as an
organization and individually, for
the splendid manner in which they
acquitted themselves in receiving
the city's guests yesterday. The
chamber of commerce helped, Of
course, but after all, it was purely
a woman's affair, and a charming
one at that.

the store was owned by William

business of half a million a year.

What do you pay the girls?"
Mr.. Cory sent for an armful of
envelopes.
Each envelope represented diff

One girl was marked in the ''$8
