"SEVEN SISTERS" SPECIAL
AT PALACE FRIDAY

Popular Marguerite Clarke will be
seen in the interesting picture Seven
Sisters" at Palace Theatre Friday.
Seven Sisters, the celebrated trans
atlantic comedy success, adapted for
the American stage by Edith Furniss,
tells the amusing story OF the widow
of an army officer in small garrl-
son town in Hungary who has seven
daughters ranging from seven to
twenty-five. According to the Hun
garian system of marriage the daugh-
ters must be wed in the order of their
age, and the younger ones must be
kent in the background until the older
ones are disposed of. Mici, portrayed
by Miss Clark the fourth in matri-
morial eligibility, rebels against this
system and falls in love with an ar
dent young lieutenant. The duty de-
wolves upon the lieutenant of finding
suitors for the three older girls who
stand in the way of his marriage to Mi
ci.
How these sentimental problems are
at last solved is humorously unfolded
in the photoplay.

THE SEA OF THE HEART.

Away from all that is calm and fair,
On the toughest sea to do and dare
Tossed by the heart beats turbulent
wave,
dds thou ccme such souls to save?
Away on the sea Of Calilce
We see thy friends and we see thee;
But on the sea OF the heart stcrn
tossed
1t seems sometimes cur souls are lost
'Tis true this sea no refuge knows,
(The sea OF the heart where the lif>
blood flows)
Save the Christ, the Rock of Ages;
He'll come to us on this sea that
RACES.
Deep in the heart beneath all gaze,
Tossed on a sea of a bitter craze,
Waiting to save us but unseen.
Dear Lord we often pass Thee by
And go with the flood and wave to die;
But Thou in the hold remaineth still
If asked to calm the sea at will
So let us ask in faith dear Lord
Trusting implicitly in thy word;
Give us thy grace TO overcome
And let the sea Of the heart be calm.
That the soul which sails upon it's
crest
May tell to the world of Thy sweet
rest;
And by Thy grace may reach the
shore
And dwell in peace for evermore.

the attractions of southern Oregon for

Secretary Frohbach of the CONNER

the city showing him the sights of
interest. They spent several hours in
Lithia park, at the Helman and Nata-
torium bath houses and other places
in the city. Mr.. Norton expressed en-
thusiasm over Ashland's attractions
and said that he believed the wonder
full park situated almost in the heart
of the city and the mineral waters
found here in such abundance would
yet put Ashland on the map in large
letters as a real summer and health
resort. But he was more deeply i'm

Tomatoes For Seed.

Many persons save the first tomato
that ripens for seed, and they think
they are doing the right thing. The
very earliest tomatoes to ripen are not
as sweet and solid as those ripenins
from a week to two weeks later, The
best plan in saving the tomato for seed
is to select the more uniform, medium
size, which ripen evenly and quickly a
little while after the plant has been
producing ripe fruit. Seeds saved from
tomatoes grown on moderately thin soil
will retain the good qualities better
than those saved from plants which
were forced by very rich soil.-Phila-
delphia North American.

WIRING A TWELVE INCH GUN.
u Takes III Miles Of Steel Tape 10
v - Make the Jacket. gsa v

According to the Mitigate Monthly,
no fewer than III miles of steel wire
are wound on a twelve inch gun that
weighs thirteen and half tons. In
appearance this wire, which is of the
same quality as piano wire, resembles
tape. 1t is a quarter of an inch wide
and a tenth of an inch thick 1t Is
tested to a breaking strength of ITO
tons. The wire unwinds from a reel
as the gun barrel revolves, and a ten
sion of about fifty tons to the square
inch insures mechanical accuracy in
wrapping 1t round the gun.
Various parts Of the gun receive dif-
ferent thicknesses of wire. At the
breech of twelve inch gun, where the
chief strain comes, there are ninety-two
layers, which give a thickness of nine
and a half inches of wire, but at the
muzzle there are only fourteen layers.
Over the wire the gunmakers shrink on
steel rings at white heat. When they
cool they contract and grip with i'm
mense force. The rihing of the barrel
is an automatic process, an example OF
wonderful mechanical ingenuity. When
the gun is finished experts test the ac-
curacy of the rifling with plastic gutta-
percha.
