OBJECTED TO THE RED TAPE
Why New York Woman Is Done with
the Famous Society with tho
Long Name.

'1'm never going to have anything
more to do with the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals" de-
clared a Brooklyn woman, indignant
ly, I've had one affair with them. It
happened when cat in our neighbor.
hood gave birth to five kittens and
then deserted them. None Of US want
ed the kittens SO, as I have a phone
in my house, it was suggested that I
get the S. P. c. A. to come and take
them away. telephoned-a such
lot of questions as they asked!
s'They wanted to know my name and
the number of my house; the number
of kittens in the litter, and their gen.
der and color and breed; the day Of
their birth and the number of days
since their mother went away from
them. Of course, these questions were
tantaliZing, because I couldn't see
what difference it made. I thought
all they had to do was to send a man
up and take the kittens away. Then
they asked me if l was married, and
how many children I had; how many
neighbors were complaining of the kit
tens and if these nej ghbors were old
maids. I thought they were very per-
sonal in their questions. But I an
swered them all. Finally came ques-
ton that made NE mad. What is the
name of the cat that deserted these
kittens?' was asked.
"1'm sure don't know replied;
she is no relation OF mine and with
that banged the receiver on the hook.
And after all we had to pay small
boy to take those kittens away and
drown them"

A HARMLESS WAY TO
DARKEN THE HAIR
A Little Sage and Sulphur Makes
Gray Hair Vanish-A Remedy for
All Hair Troubles.

Who does not know the value of
Sage and Sulphur for keeping the
hair dark, soft and glossy and in good
condition? AS a matter of fact, Sui
phur is natural element Of hair,
and deficiency of it in the hair is
held my many scalp specialists to be
connected with loss of color and vi
tally of the hair. Unquestionably
there is no better remedy for hair
and scalp troubles, especially prema-
ture grayness, than Sage and Sui
phur. if properly prepared.
The Wyeth Chemical Company of
New York put out an ideal prepara-
ton Of this kind, called Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy, in which
Sage and Sulphur are combined with
other valuable remedies for keeping
the hair and scalp in clean, healthy
condition.
II your hair is losing its color or
constantly coming out, or if you are
troubled with dandruff or dry, itchy
scalp, get a fifty cent bottle of Wy
eth's Sage and Sulphur from your
druggist, use it according to the SIM
pie directions, and see what a differ
ence few days treatment will make
in the appearance of your hair.
All druggists sell it, under guaran-
tee that the money will be refunded
if the remedy is not exactly as repre-
sented

LECTURE ON ELECTRICITY.
Engineer Fagan's Lecture Well
Worth Hearing.

The Hollister, Cal, paper has the
following to say regarding the free
illustrated lecture which will be
given at the Chautauqua tabernacle
tomorrow evening:
The illustrated lecture delivered
last night at the Berberich Theatre
by the two well-known Illuminating
engineers, f. w. Loomis of New
York and F. d. Pagan of San Fran
cisco, brought out good house and
the talks and demonstrations were
both entertaining and instructive.
The primary object of the lecture
was to tell the merchants and larger
consumers of electricity how to get
more and better light for the same
money that they are now spending
tor power, and the demonstrations
made were for the purpose of sub
stantiating this.
''Mr. Pagan made demonstrations
of the General Electric Company S
new Mazda lamps, and Mr.. LOOMS
showed the advantages of the Holo-
phane reflectors. Many tests were
made with these and number of
illustrative slides were thrown on the
moving picture screen.
THE most striking feature of the
evening was introduced by Mr.. Loo
mis-, who actually produced more
light from a two-capdle power lamp
and Holophane shade than is given
by the ordinary 32-candle power
globes"

MEDEORD CHALLENGED,
Ashland Leaguers Throw Down the
Gauntlet.

The Ashland Epworthians,
through their efficient fourth vice
president, Miss Grace Barney, have
challenged the Medford league to
meet them at Ashland in Joint de-
bate upon the following question:
Resolved, that capital punishment
and the pardoning of first-degree
murderers should be abolished"
The contest is to be pulled off with
in thirty days, there being three
speakers on each side, two boys and
one girl The question is to be de-
cided by three judges, one from each
city, who will choose a third referee
from some other locality The pear
city people will have choice of sides
and their answer is awaited with
much interest by the Granite City
challengers. This debate is expected
to be the beginning of literary activ-
ity in local leaguedom.
Sunday evening the president of
the city union, j. o. Rigg, accompa-
MED by Alvin Wheeler, visited all
the several societies and announced
two new movements which are being
inaugurated. One is a membership
exchange, each society sending
member to some other society every
Sunday eevning. This plan is ex-
pected to result in much mutual feel
| ing and increase of fraternal feeling
between the Ashland churches. The
other movement is the organization
of committee composed of three
high school students from each So
ciety, for the express purpose of
looking after the interests of those
societies in the high school. Inves-
tigation reveals he somewhat surpris-
ing fact that only two dozen of the
2OS students in the Ashland high
school belong to any of the church
young peoples societies.
The Epworth League devotional
meetings are we'll attended, there be-
ing about rs present at the regular
services Sunday evenings. A special
temperance meeting, with new speak
ers, solos and quartet music, is be-
ing arranged for next Sunday even
ing. Services begin promptly at
6:15. Come early and get a good
seat. Preaching services immediate
ly following the league meeting.

METHODIST FINANCES.
Annual Budget Presented to Church
BY Official Board.

The deciples of John Wesley are
strong believers in method and pub
licity. AT the morning services Sun
day the treasurer, DR.. G. w. Gregg,
of the Ashland church, read the bud
get prepared by the official board
being an estimate of all the regular
expenses of the church for the en-
suing conference year. Pastors sal
airy, $1,450; district superintendent,
1853; jan'tor, $3.50; lights, water
and phone, $66; taxes, SOS; paving
assessment, $73; sewer, SIS; wood,
$50; music, $50; Talent church,
SIS; debts-insurance, $16O; repair
ing organ, $35; janitor, SAT; total,
s2,45O.
The sum of 1865 has been appor-
toned among the members. who
number nearly 500. The plate col
lections, which amounted to $500 for
the year, are expected to make up
the balance and provide funds for
unexpected items of expense. All the
choir people donate their services to
the church. The contributions to
missions and other church benevo-
lences amount to over $500, which,
together with the money paid into
the Sunday school and other subsid-
iary societies of the church, amounts
to over $1,000, making between $9,-
500 and $4,000 contributed by the
church for all purposes.
Each member is asked to con-
tribute at least 81 to the regular ex-
penses of the church. An effort is
being made to equalize the appor-
tionment, the most liberal contribu-
tors being asked for less than they
have been paying and greater con-
tributions expected from those who
have been in the habit of paying lit
tie or nothing. The general confer
ence officially recommends tithing-
the paying of one-tenth or more of
ones income to the Lord. Several
Ashland Methodists are tithers.
An interesting fact, not generally
known, is that the Ashland Meth
odist church has the largest church
building in the klamath district, the
largest membership and pays the
most for benevolences, yet three
other hurches-Medford Grants
Pass and Roseburg-pay their pas
tor a higher salary. At least three
of the Ashland ministers are men of
ability to fill the position
of school superintendent in a city of
this size, provided they had studied
pedagogy instead of theology, yet are
working for 81 900 a Year less salary
than the school superintendent This
doesn't look as though the former
were actuated by mercenary motives.

Mr.. Voter and Taxpayer: Do you
know Jackson county's floating in

nearly 100000 in the past four
years? Jackson county warrants
which were in demand at and per
cent premium four years ago have
gone begging at 80 cents and even
50 cents on the dollar during the
past year. Isn't it time the interests
of the taxpayers and citizens general
ly of Jackson county were safeguard
ed again? Then vote for George

THE BOYS CONFERENCE.
Delightfully."- Interesting and Instruc-
tive Conference Held at Central
Point Last Week.

The First Southern Oregon Boys
Conference met in Central Point Fri
day evening of last week and closed
Sunday night. Delegations were
present from all the cities and larger
towns in the Rogue River valley.
Ashland had the largest delegation
is. The conference is held under
the auspices of the state committee
of the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation, which was represented by
II. A. Dalzell, the boys man. of
the state committee, w. w. Wright,
and Ivan B. Rhodes, state secretary.
1t is simila" to the Annual Boys
Conference which has been held each
year beginning with 1907 in the Will
lamette valley and which has grown
year by year until the delegates last
year numbered 1913. Out of these
conferences has sprung up the or
ganization known as the Associated
Boys Clubs of Oregon. The aim of
the Y. NJ. c. A. in fostering these
conferences is the aim of the Y. NJ.
c. A. in the cities having the Y. NJ.
c. A. organization, viz, to give the
boy the proper amount of attention
which he needs at the time when he
is just between boy and man, to en-
courage all activities among boys
which tend to the development of
good mind, a sound body and
healthy religious spirit, believing
that the all-round boy will some day
be an all-round man. In cities
where there is no Y. NJ. C. A. organ
ization the Boys Club is usually
grouped about Sunday school class.
In the larger cities every boy who
comes into the boys department of
the Y. NJ. C. a. joins one of these
groups.
The Ashland delegation carried off
the presidency, Alvin Wheeler get
ting that job, while Dan Ament of
Grants Pass was elected secretary.

the talks, and everybody was in good
trim for the banquet in the Y. NJ.

beginning at 6 o'clock and ending
somewhat later on. Altogether,
there were some fifty boys who now
have better taste in their mouths
in more ways than one-than they
did previous to registering for the
conference, and will look forward
with pleasure to the next conference.
