N'ARTRUR NOT AFTER
SENATORIAL JOB YET

Portland, Or, Sept. 22.-Congressman
c. N. Macarthur does not propose to
abandon the possibility of reelection to
the lower house Of congress for the un-
certainty of O. chance at a senatorial
toga.
Macarthur made this positive an
nouncement Saturday night in comment
ing upon recent speculations as to his
intentions. Declaring that he has i'm
portant committee appointments which
would serve the state vastly more than
would his seat in the senate, Macarthur
made the following statement:
Since my return to Portland two
weeks ago I have been frequently in
terrogated as to whether I intend to
enter the senatorial race or seek re-elec-
ton to the house Of representatives.
"I deeply appreciate the offers of
support that have come to me from
many sections in connection with the
senatorial race, but wish to take this
opportunity Of informing the public that
I shall not enter this contest, but shall
seek reelection to the house.

THE TELEPHONE.

The telephone is. the most stubborn of all the forms of mechanical

AS a purveyor of good news it is a failure. As a dissemination of
bad news it Is a regular old gossip; in fact a whole sewing circle.

It fhatters incessantg and repeats its bad news over and over again.

speaks with perfect articulation and an abundance of force and clarity
of thought. 1t is affiliated with a wel-defned stutter and a severe at
tack of quinsy, and speaks a sort of vest-pocket volapuk, which l
could never understand.
When anyone wants to get me on the phone to offer me $1,000
or even a less amount, my telephone is a deaf and dumb beast. It
either rings so family that l don't hear it at all. or it iumbles up the
motorcycle on the instanment plan. 1t simply won't work, and two or

DOROTHY DIX'S TALK
by DOROTHY DIX,
The Worlds Highest Paid Woman !
VANITY OF VANITIES.

BY our vanities are we known. Find
out n man or woman pet vanity, and
you have the key TO his or heraweak-
ness, and may play upon It as upon a
harp with a thousand strings.
Which sex Is the vainer II would he
impossible to say, but there is this
difference between the vanity OF men
and women, that men add sex vanity
TO their personal vanity, where's wom-
en- have no sex vanity, but only per-
sonal vanity.
Considering that sex Is only a mat
ter OF accident, and something that Is
wished on n by nature instead of
being something that one achieves by
might Of brain or Drawn, It does not
seem that a man is entitled to a X
any particular credit to himself for
having been born OF the masculine per-
suasion, He does, however. He feels
that having been born a man Is equiva-
lent to having been bort>o the royal
family by the grace az God. n that
L set him upon a pinnacle from which
he Is entitled to look down pom the
feminine worms Of creation.
There isn't n man, who, In his secret
soul, does not consider hat he has
bestowed an honor. for which she can
never be sufficiently grateful, on the
woman whom he asks to be his wife.
It Is not because the individual man
Ia so particularly enamoured OF his

woman would jump at the chance of
getting him, II is because his sex van
tty makes him believe that any woman
will marry any man who throws the
handkerchief at her, and nothing shakes
his faith IN this thoory-not ever be-
Ing turned down by every to
whom he pop the question.
This naive and Childlike belief, that
the most Indifferent man Is better than
the best woman, is one OF the hardest
things that a successful woman has to
| endure at the hands OF her fellowman.
Now that men and women meet on
an equal footing in many lines Of work,
II not in%frequently happens that the
gray mare Is the better horse, and that
the woman commands two or three
times the salary that the men receive
with whom she works.
Invariably, however, In such cases,
the men regard the woman's position
as their superior as n mere result Of
accident, or pull, and they treat her
with a lordly, but kindly, condescer-
sion as one whom circumstances has
made almost, but not quite, their

ability than they have

some gainful occupation that she can
carry on In a nice. well furnished Of
flee, or store, amidst pleasant sur
roundings, and whereby she can earn
enough salary to pay several compe-
tent domestic servants.
But the mans vanity Is so much
stronger than his love that he is not
willing for her to go on doing the work
she knows how to do, and likes to do.
He requires her 10 give that IN and

go into a kitchen, where she has to
work ten times as hard doing mental
labor that she hates and loathes, In
order to save her husbands face, and
wife give up work when she married
him,
1t Is mans sex vanity that makes
him feel that just because he is a
man he must he the one in the family
upon whom the spotlight is turned,
that makes the marriage Of almost
every woman who achieves anything
on her own behalf an unhappy one,
The man simply can not stand 1t, that
he should play second fiddle to his wife,
that she should be inc one who is
petted, courted and admired, and have
her name celebrated In the newspapers,
A woman Is proud Of a famous and
successful husband She glories in his
praise, 1t pleases her to be known as
the wife of her husband, but not one
man In a million Is big enough to feel
that way about his wife. somehow,
he feels that her success is a covert
criticism Of him, as II talent were not
a loo -given thing, which one is neither
responsible for having, or not having.
Every word Of praise or her Is a stab
at his " vanity and there can be
no insult to him so deadly as for any
one to speak of him as his wife's bus
band.
women nave no sex vanity. Per-
haps because men have taught them
to despise their sex, and look down
upon being a woman as upon being one
Of inferior caste. II a woman is not
actually ashamed Of being a oma
she Is at least deprecatory about 1t,
and she regards II AS the choicest COM
pliment that you can pay her to say
that she has n masculine intellect. or
a virilc style,
Woman's vanity IL purely personal,
and II Is mainly confined to her looks,
or some strange mysterious, occult
power that she believes that she pos
seSses, and that she calls intuition.
SO great is "A woman personal van
ity that there is absolutely no flattery
so gross she won't swallow 1t whole,
no lie concerning her appearance 80

And 1t is woman's vanity that makes
her believe that she can inspire a lazy,
worthless loafer with a passion that
will convert him into n dynamo Of en-
ergy, and that love Of her Ia a Keely
cure that will cause a drunkard never
to thirst again, and hat her sacred
Influence will change tt rogue into a
model of domestic virtues.
And so woman's personal vanity
scores off against mans sex vanity,
and which brings the most trouble
