comedian, will present his Love-
Makers Company in a new. show,
which is said to have been organized
and equipped upon more extensive and
elaborate lines than ever before at
tempted by any producer of bur-
lesque. at Miners Empire Theatre
next week. An entirely new book
has been provided during the two
acts, of which five superb scenes are
shown. all of which are said to be
equal in point of artistic scene paint
ing to anything produced on any stage
in the country.
The costuming of the show is in
keeping with the scenes and the effect
accomplished by the lavish use of
money may be imagined. Mr.. Howe
is said to have left nothing undone to
secure a result that will surprise pa
irons of burlesque houses, and from
all accounts he appears to have per-
fectly succeeded. In addition to these
careful preparations, a company of
unusually popular performers has
been engaged, including a chorus OF
twenty-four pretty girls.

MUSIC NOTES

John Mccormack, the great Irish
tenor, who will sing here at the Pal
ace Ballroom the evening Of April Ia,
has always consistently refused to
take a professional name. a few years
ago when he was commencing his
oberatic career, he was offered the
position of leading tenor for a season
in an American city on condition that
he become an Italian and sing before
the public as Giovanni Cormacco
John Mccormack was justly indig-
nant at the implication that his own
name was not good enough for adver-
Using purposes, and he rejected the
offer then and there. At the time
the artists position in the matter was
made the subject of some satirical but
good -humored verses written by a
compatriot, T. A. DAILY, in a New
York paper. The title of the verses
was Giovanni Cormacco," and the
author signed himself "Tony Nc
Aroni."
A small but friendly audience
greeted Reinald Werrenrath and
Clarence Adler last night when they
appeared in Wallace Hall to give
o. Joint recital. Mr.. Werrenrath's
splendid baritone was never heard to
better advantage than in the group
OF songs chosen by him. Mr.. Adler
played the Beethoven Pathetic
Sonata, the Chopin Ballade and the
Tenth Hungarian Rhapsody of List
in a manner that earned for him the
enthusiastic applause of his hearers.
Both parties had frequently to re-
spond to an insistent demand for
enCoreS.
Josef Hoffman, and Mischa Gilman
will give a joint concert in Carnegie
Hall Friday afternoon, April II, at
8 o'clock. They will play two sonatas
and solo numbers by each artist. This
will be their last appearance in New
York city this season.
A piano recital will be given by
Arthur Klein on Thursday evening,
April 8, at Wallace Hail.
Josef Hermann. the famous pianist,
gives recital at 3 p. IN. today at
Carnegie Hail. New York.

full. DODSON'S LIVER TOVE IS
RECOMMENDED and GUARANTEED

In a number of cases it has SEEM
ed that appendicitis has resulted
from chronic constipation. Hence
it is we'll to be careful and keep the
system in as good working order as
possible, for if you never suffer
from constipation you are likely to
lesson your liability to other COM
plications and troubles.
But that does not mean that it is
wise for you to use calomel, a pois-
on that stays in the system and
often leaves bad effects behind it.,
even after you may have appeared
to be benefited temporarily. AS a
matter of fact, calomel is exceed
ingly dangerous to many people,
perhaps to you. So it is just as
we'll not to take chances.
For constipation. biliousness. liver
complaint, SICK headache. etc.. DOd-
sons Liver Tone is guaranteed by
Sylvia Pharmacy and Hooper's Drug
Store. who will cheerfully refund
purchase price (50c) instantly to
you in the event that it fails to give
complete satisfaction.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a vegeta-
bic liquid, perfectly harmless. easy
to take and highly effective without
pain, ache or grippe and leaving no
bad after-effcts. 1t assists nature
and builds you up instead of weak
ening you. So many people have
been immensely benefited by this
good remedy that it's worth your
looking into at once. Make no mis-
ask for Dodsons Liver Tone.

EFFECTS OF NEW TARIFF,

Oregonian: The Underwood tariff has
now been In effect long enough to en-
able us to judge of its first results.
These are, as regards foreign trade dur.
ing the four months ending with Janu-
airy, an increase of 1S per cent in i'm
ports of raw material. of per cent
In manufactures and of 20 per cent
In foodstuffs, while there has been a
decrease In experts of manufactures
and the customs revenue Is much less
The promised reduction In the cost OF
living has been slow In coming, though
prices of commodities in general de-
clined nearly per cent in January
ana February. perhaps Influenced to
some extent by decrease of Is per
cent In the Transvaafs production of
gold during those months
The great hopes of lower prices which
were raised by the placing of meat on
the free list. have been falsified. for
the $4,000 600 pounds imported In the
last quarter of 1918 failed to affect re-
tail prices. The explanation IS offered
by the Wall Street Journal that i'm
ports amount to less than nine -tenths
OF our consumption. and Secretary Hous-
ton explains that most of the beef
from Argentina came from the beef
trusts own plant to itself. Thus free
meat has only facilitated the operations
and increased the extortions OF the
trust which has proved invunerable
against all legal assaults of the gov
eminent. Free hides have not prevent
ed large decrease in imports: hence
shoes are no cheaper The consumer
has not benefited where most was prom
ised him-namely. from the free mar
ket basket. The depression In the lum

trasted with the activity in other in
dustries, sustains the contention OF the
oregonian, that the new tariff is gross
