TLady, II was reading an arti-

about the experience OF girl friendless

How many times have told you that

young lady reporter walked around and
down Fifth avenue with her head and

Do you get your weekly washing off
your hands before noon or do you do it the
old long-drawn-out back-breaking way'
Try Fels-Naptha next week and you'll
surprise your husband with good eating on
wash day.
Fels-Naptha changes the color Of
Monday. Instead of ''blue Monday and
yellow clothes, you'll have whittier clothes
and happier washday.
The clothes come out spick, span and
snowy white. And you just use cool or
lukewarm water.
No parboiling your face and hands
over steaming, sudsy wash tub. This
ought to be reason enough for using
Fels-Naptha even if you didn't get your
washing done in just about half the time.
Yes, you say, but how about the clothes7
Will they be full of weak spots and broken
threads?
Not bit of of it'll The Fels-Naptha
attacks the dirt only. Dissolves it-then
the water washes it away. Just as simple
as A. b. c.
It's just as good for all kinds of house
hold cleaning.
Follow the easy directions on the red

In MemOnam.

Little Lucy B., infant daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. G. G. Macdonald. was born
July 4, 1910 She was stricken with an
abscess in the middle ear on April 6.
1912, which developed into meningitis
of the brain, and suffered intensely until
April 20, 1912, when death relieved her.
Everything was done for her that love
and skill could suggest, but without
avail, and slowly her fair young life
ebbed away. Her stay on earth was so
short, having come as ray of sunshine
to the home of her parents and grand
parents, only twenty-One and a half
months before. But short as her stay
was those twenty-One months will be
pleasant to remember. We will try TO
be comfOrted with the thought that she
rests sweetly in the arms of Jesus.
Her going leaves one less tie 10 bind US
to earth; one more to draw us to heaven.
We will try to learn to say through tears
and heart aches, Not our will but
thine be done," and trustfully resign
our darling into her Fathers hands,
fondly hoping that in bright hereafter,
we, with the daughter and son left be-
hind. will meet Lucy B. in fadeless
beauty and immortal youth.

active management of the Pioneers, and
will hold down first sack. IL his first
workout Fisher completely captivated
the local fans both as player and mana
ger, and he brings with him a splendid
record with the Pacific Coast League.
Mr.. Fisher is a polished gentleman
and undoubtedly understands every de-
tail of the game. The warm sun of the
past week has enabled the players to
get in good condition and fine game
may be expected this afternoon. Mana
ger Fisher has not had charge of the
team long enough to decide the correct
lineup and batting order for the game
this afternoon, but the probable team
will be as follows: Haines, catcher;
Black, pitcher; Fisher, first base; Baird,
second base; Harris, short; Kyle,
Dowdell, or Wintz, third base; Mum or,
Center, right field; Lainhart, center
field and Bramlage, left field.
