MRS. WIGGS" TO BE PUT
ON AS LIBRARY BENEFIT
Famous Five-Reel Photoplay Will be
Shown at the Princess Theatre
Next Thursday Night

"Mrs. Wigs of the Cabbage Patch
will be brought to the Princess theatre
Thursday evening, May 18th, by the
ladies of the Needlework club, the
proceeds from the presentment Of the
reels going wholly to the benefit of
the local library. There will be two
shows of these pictures, starting at
seven o'clock, the evening of the 18th,
prices being placed at ten and twenty
cents.
"Mrs. Wigs of the Cabbage Patch"
is a five-reel photoplay based upon
Mrs. Alice Hogan Rice's two novels,
"Mrs. Wigs of the Cabbage Patch"
and "Lovey Mary"
An outline of the plot would give
only faint clue to the wealth Of To-
cal color and atmosphere with which
the play is richly filled. The domes-
tic troubles of Mrs. Wigs are always
contrasted with good humored hap
penings, so that the offering affords
opportunity for many a laugh.

Thursday afternoon, when the Shakes
peare club of the literary department
of the Woman's club entertained the
ladies of the Shakespeare club of Pas
co with four-course luncheon served

yellow and white was used in the
decorations of cut flowers, softly
shaded lights and the daintily dressed
ladies made an exquisite picture, for
which the beautiful home made a
perfect frame.
Following the luncheon a delightful
program was given, Mrs. Wilkinson
playing the Morris dances and Mrs.

entertainments ever given in Kenne-
wick was 'The Drum Major" staged
by Miss Shier and Miss Nelson at the
high school auditorium last Friday
and Saturday evenings. The oper-
eta was given under the auspices Of
the civics department Of the Woman's

KLUB'S SMOKER
PROVIDES PLEASANT EVE
Nichols Throws Bremmer After q
Tough Tussle- Boxing Bouts
are All Even

Something over hundred lovers
of boxing and wrestling We're given
a very pleasant entertainment at the
pavilion Monday evening, the occa-
sion being the first smoker of the new
ly organized Kennewick Athletic Klub.
Five three-round boxing bouts were
pulled off and two wrestling matches.
The boxers were Stacy Pierce and
Jack Barr; William Sly and Ray Cope
land; "Curley" Miles and Anderson, Of
Seattle; Hayward and Evans, both Of
Pasco; and Harry Custer Of Pasco, VS..
"Red" Young, of Seattle. Referee
Hayden declared all the bouts to be
even affairs.
N. j. Daviscourt, of Ellensburg,
who won from John Berg, Of Spokane,
at Pasco Tuesday night, was intro
duced and refereed the wrestling
matches. In the first of these Gus
Clemens, Of Pasco threw his lighter
opponent, "Brick" Oliver, two straight
falls in quick time. The last bout of
the evening, between "Trial Horse
Fritz" Bremmer, of Richland, and
Nichols, of Kennewick, proved by far
the most interesting event of the
night. Nichols, though giving away
thirty pounds in weight, displayed a
quickness and knowledge Of the game
which enabled him to pin his husky
opponents shoulders down in two
straight falls, afr long, hard tussle.
The ring events were interspersed
with selections by the Prosser quartet,
the club trio, stories and monologue
by photographer Lawrence, of Pros
ser and by orchestra music. A light
lunch was served at the close of the
evening.
The club feels greatly indebted to
the entertainers who kindly assisted
in making the evening such pleasant
one, as well as to the boxers and |
who participated, none of
whom received any compensation Of /,
any kind. The considerable sum net
ted from the affair will go toward
Quitting the clubs gymnasium, to
be opened later in the year. |

How to Destroy Catarrh
Germs and End Catarrh
Forever
A Specialists s Advice.

Catarrh is germ disease and the
only way to cure it so it will stay
cured and never come back is to kill
and drive out Of your system the
catarrhal germs which have found
Judgement there. When the germs 60
the catarrh will STOP. The trouble
with most treatments, like sprays
salves, creams, greasy balms, lotions
ETC., is that they give only temporary
relief by opening up for while the
clogged head, throat and nostrils. In
little time the catarrh comes back as
bad as ever.
People who suffer continually from
catarrh should drop such temporary
makeshifts and get something that
really gets atthe root of the disease
and stamps it out. There is nothing
better for such cases than breathing
into your nose and lungs the pleasant,
soothing, healing, germ destroying air
Of Hyomei pronounced High,o-me)
made from purest oil Of Eucalyptus
and combined with other powerful
healing, antiseptic and germ destroying
ingredients. Hyomei penetrates and
heals the inflamed swollen membranes
Of your nose and throat, stops dis
charges, clears the passages and com
pletely oyercomes the disease by de.
stroying its cause. For catarrh germs
cannot live in your body after Hyomei
reaches them. Daniel j. Fry and many
other good druggists in Salem and
vicinity have long sold Hyomei on a
positive guarantee Of successful results
or money back and find this generous
policy pays. Most druggists are now
giving pocket inhaler made from hard
rubber with every complete treatment
sold This makes very simple, easy
and convenient as well as a thoroughly
reliable means of treating by the best
known method this dangerous and often
disgusting disease.

STOMACH MISERY
QUICKLY VANISHES

Your money back if you want it is
the way in which Daniel J. Fry, the
popular druggist, is selling Mi-o-na, the
great dyspepsia remedy.
This is an unusual plan, but Mi-o-na
has so much merit and is so almost in
variably successful in relieving all
forms Of indigestion that he ran but
little risk in selling under a guarantee
Of this kind.
Do not be miserable or make your
friends miserable with your dyspepsia.
Mi-o-na will help you. If it doesn t,
tell Daniel J. Fry that you want your
money back and he will cheerfully re-
fund it.
A change for the better will be seen
from the first few doses of Mi-o.na and
its continued use will soon start you
on the road to perfect digestion and
enjoyment of food.
Mi-o-na has been so uniformly sue
cessful that every box is sold under a
positive guarantee to refund the money
if it does not relieve. What fairer
proposition could be made.
Daniel j. Fry gives his personal
guarantee of "money back if you want
it" with every box of Mio.na that he
sells. A guarantee like this speaks
volumes for the merit of the remedy.

Government Supervision
Of PuIInans Advocated

Oakland, Cal, Nov. 1s.-Government
supervision of the Pullman company was
recommended in a resolution adopted to-
day by the convention of the National
Grange, patrons of husbandry. The
resolution, further, advocated reduc-
tion of Pullman rates and higher
wage to Pullman employees.
Direct credit to farmers by the United
States government is advocated by the
national grange, patrons Of husbandry
Both sessions last night and the session
this morning were given over to a dis
cussion by the delegates as to the best
method of issuing a protest against
what they term the "unpatriotic de-
vastating, extorti0nate methods of the
bankers of the country"
This committee of the great farm
ers organization is to arrange for a
direct dealing between the government
and the owners of farm property. A
maximum of five percent interest is the
demand, with no commission.
Arthur M. Gardner of Massachusetts
denounced the bankers of the country,
and advocated some definite, tangible
method of bringing the matter before
the present session Of congress. He
said in part:
"No business in the world will allow
an overhead to pay interest ranging
from ten to 125 per cent. The bankers
and big interests ask the rural produc-
ers for this extortionaSe interest. The
business of farming hardly pays a
decent living for the workers and in
terest on the money invested. How can
the farm carry the burden of gigantic
fraud.v

Austria Asserts That
Liner AncOna Warned
Before Being Sunk

+ Washington, Nov. 1S.-Asserting un-
reseryedly that the Italian liner An
coma was warned, az required by in
ternational law, before an Austrian
submarine sank her and that no shots
were fired after the vessel finally stop
ped, the Austrian government today
reported to Secretary of State Lansing
regarding his request for information
as to the destruction.
The details Of the torpedoing were
similar to those related in Austria IS
preliminary statement, which told of
firing warning shot and of the liner
trying to escape.
The note declared that the SUBJ
marine fired a warning shot after
which the Ancona fled in haste. More
over, she did not stop until several
shots had hit her. The ships company
was given As minutes to leave the YES
sci. Wild panic ensued. A portion of
the boats were lowered, but these con
tanned largely crew members.
The story that the boats were shelled
after leaving was branded as a
"malicious fabrication
Practically the only question it was
said that can be involved now, if Aus
triaIs assertions prove true, is to de-
termine what constitutes q reasonable
time for a company to go overheard
before torpedoing. This question has
not arisen thus far, and it is not certain
that it will develop in this incident.

SALTS /. .BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink Lots Of Water and Stop
Eating Meat for a While if
Your Bladder Troubles
You

When you wake up with bachache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen.
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says q wellknown author.
1ty. Meat forms uric acid which over.
works kidneys in their effort to filter
1T from blood and they become sort Of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have bachache, sick headache,
DIZZY spells; your stomach sours, tongue
AZ coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatism twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels
otten get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharma
cist about four ounces Of Jad Salts;
take tablespoonful in q glass of wat
er before breakfast for few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
hthia, and has been used for generations
to clean and stimulate sluggish kidnevs
also to neutralize acids in the urine SO
ii no longer irritates, thus ending blad-
der weakness.
