Wilton Lackaye in "The Battle"

Cleveland Moffett's play, "The
Battle" is being made ready for
production on the German stage. 1t
is very rarely that the Germans are
treated to the efforts of our Amerl.
can playwrights, the only instances
of late years being Fitch's "The
Truth" and Belasco's "Du Barry
and the latter frankly and solely for
it's spectacular feasures. The Ger
mans pride themselves in being a
bit more advanced in their theatri
cal taste than we are, yet "The Bat
tle' is liable to prove as successful
there as here. 1t has just enough
brain food to class it as a drama of
ideas, and it abounds in the play
of strong passions, so dear to the
Teutonic heart. In addition that
portion of the play dealing with the
bread strike will be slightly
changed, so that it will have direct
bearing on the problem of the un-
employed which seems much more
serious in Berlin than it is even
here.

NATURE SPARES
The Stricken Rose from Grief.

The Stricken Rose from Grief.
What a fortunate provision of ma
ture it is, that deprives the rose of
mental suffering; for how poignant
would be its grief to discover, in the
height of it's blooming glory that a
canker fed at it's heart, and that It's
beauty and fragrance were doomed
forever. Nature always spares the
suffering; she is a veritable store
house of pleasing rewards, for those
who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness
have cast a gloom over the lives OF
thousands of young women, but
thanks to the investigation of scien~
lists the true cause of hair destruc-
tion is now known to be a germ or
parasite that burrows into the hair
follicles. Newbro's Herpicide abso-
lutely destroys this germ, thus per-
mitting the hair to grow as nature
intended. Sold by leading druggists.

Portland, Or, Sept. 1.-THE gen

Pacific Northwest today has put an
end to one of the worst forest fire
seasons in coast history, according to
officials of the forestry service.
The rains, which began yesterday
extended from Central Idaho to the

Campaign Against Profanity.

One of the most significant signs
of the times is the growing preju-
dice against profanity. 1t is not be-
cause the people are getting so much
more religious, but because the
foolishness of profanity is getting
to be more fully realized. II is just
the same process as that by which
the world Is coming TO have less and
less use for the man who gets
drunk. There Is no particular fall
ing off in the desire for JOY water,
but man is coming TO understand
that he can't cultivate the whee
feeling and hold his job. Drunken
ness and profanity are not fashiona.

ly $4,000 people marched In pro-
cession at Pittsburg in protest
against the habit Of profane speech,
which they think is growing in the

west and all are of the kind that
mark the age of Improvement.
When you refer to our agricult-
ural development II has increased a
thousand fold. II has made it as
fixed and stable as the everlasting
hills and the profits are known fact
ors. The enormous flow of water
from our big wells is increasing day
by day and the pumping is easier
than II was six months ago. While
this was issuing from the editorial
pencil, John Humid dropped into the
Office and said that his great bean
crop this year yielded $72 per acre,
gross, and $50 net. and we have CIV
en- the profits on other farm products
so many times, a repetition seems
unnecessary here. Ask the farmers
themselves and they will tell you of
crops that would have made the
ancient Egyptians turn green with
envy. Ranch homes are now made
for people who have come to stay
and who are among the finest class
of people in the United States-we
bar nothing.
