Breed Theatre

A story from every day life, sad at times. but prevented from being sordid by the strength of character of a girl who started with almost nothing and achieved the desire of every wonan's heart will be shown at the Breed the atre today and Thursday in the presen- tation of The Path She Chose" The photoplay is a Universal production di- rected by Philip Rosen.

Gas con- sufned will be charged at the present rate of S1.60 per thousand cubic feet. Customers using the prepayment, more familiarity known as the quarter meter, !, rvili continue to drop such coins in the Tnster slot and the collector when he calls will collect 65 cents additional from the customer In the case of a bill made out for the ordinary meter a charge of G. gents for each meter will be added.
 During the morning hours little was heard from the public upon whom the <. additional cost falls but as tie amount of the raise dawned upon them a wave of protest was heard from business men and the public in general Many local houses simply have meters and gas in their places of business for protection when the electricity is off, and this hap pens far too often. These people did not object to paying 25 cents per month for inc meter and an added amount if the gas used totalled over that amount. Now il hits them haT IS they must pay 65 cents per month the meter plus a sun for the amount oi gas used. the 65 cents covering none of the gas expense.

Hoyt's Revue at the Davis This Week
 Hoyt's Revue that popular mus,cal organization well known in these parts is scoring big hit at the Davis having packed the theatre both Monday and Tuesday. Today they offer an entire change of program for Wednesday and Thursday entitled Wine Mtmen and Song This Is one of the best shows of their repertoire and is full of comedy. singing and dancing not forgetting new scenery and pretty girls in new costumet don't fail to see the change. The feature picture is Constance Binney in The Stolen Kiss.
 She danced her way into the hearts of the people-a little slip of girl who few short years ago was totally un- heard of. but who now ranks with ihe greatest screen and stage luminaries.
 'The Stolen Kiss is a whimsical story by Lucille Van Slyke. Miss Binney shows a little of the marvellous dancing which started her on the road to fame.
 '-The Stolen Kiss" shows the deb1- tante star in a dual role. She is seen both as little girl brought up in almost cloister-like seclusion and as her bed ridden mother.
 Felicia, the little girl undergoes a | series of pathetic. yet whimsical. sd- ventures before she finds love and hap piness. The scenes in which she re- gains possession of her Brooklyn home and the manner in which she fills 1t with all sorts of potential derelicts, are replete with soul-stirring vividness.
 Those who are interested in modern features of motion photoplay are prom ised some remarkable double exposures

A Simple Way To
 Remove Dandruf

There is one sure way that never fails to remove dandruff completely and that is to dissolve it. This des- troys it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
 By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely | dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. | You will find, too, that all itching
 and digging of the scalp will stop in
 stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
 lustrous, glossy silky and soft, and i look and feel hundred times better.

There fore have urgently suggested the wide spread publication of the sworn statement ot the composition f its formula SO that the public may know wh-t they are taking.
 This complete formula is now to be found Tn newspapers throughout the country. IS IS composed principally of organic iron in the form of iron peptonate of special spe. cine standard and glycerophsophates which is one ct the most costly tonic ingredients known. To the credit of the manufsctur. CTS it may be said that they use the most expensive form of iron peptonate, whereas by employing other makes they could have put the same quantity of actual iron in the tablets at less than one-fourth the cost and by using metallic iron they could have re- dueed the cost to less than one-twelfth, but by thus cheapening the product they would undoubtedly have impaired its therapeutic efficacy: In my opinion careful examina. ton of this formula by any physician or pharmacist should convince him that Nux- ated Iron is to be placed among the very highest class and most strictly ethical prep arations known to medical science. It ex- cels anything 1 have ever used for building up the system and increasing the red blood cOrpuscles thereby euriching and fortifyina the blood against the Esysges of disease.

Democrats To Adopt Progressive Platform and Progressive Man

I'VE insist on the abolition of the
labor of children under ID years,
and that children between ID and 1S
hall be permitted to work only af-
ter passing examinations by local
school and health authorities, assur-
ing proper standards of health and
education.
1--WE affirm our belief in the prin-
ciples of the Democratic platform of
1916, and again urge the general
adoption of the eight-hour day.
I'VE believe that wages should be
put on a basis of service, not of sex,
and that minimum wages should be
fixed which will insure to all wage
earners proper standard of health,
comfort and efficiency.
I'VE urge that the Federal Trade
Commission be given greatest power
over the basic food industries of life.
I'VE advocate the development of
a national system of employment of
fees under control of federal and
state boards, to meet the problems
of seasonal requirements of agricul-
ture we urge the organization of a
voluntary labor corps for harvesting,
with transportation subsidies.
eve advocate the extension and
development of the bureau of wo-
men in industry established by the
Democratic party in the department
of labor. We also urge the appoint
ment of women on all government
boards and tribunals dealing with
industry and labor.

WOMEN FOR EXCLUDING
LIQUOR FROM PLATFORM

DAN hANClSCO, June 26,-
The women members of the executive
committee of the Democratic nation
al committee have decided to recon-
mend that no reference be made to
the prohibition question in the plat-
form to be adopted by the conven-
tion.
1t was also agreed to recommend
that President Wilson's stand on the
peace treaty and league of nations
be approved.
The following planks submitted by
the labor committee of the women's
bureau of the Democratic national
committee, Mrs. Robert Bruere, of
New York, chairman, were adopted.
I'VE affirm the right of collective
bargaining between employers and
employees through representatives of
their own choosing. We approve also
the national industrial councils estab-
lished by employers and employees
within the various industries, the
findings of which shall have the ef-
feet of ordinary collective agree
ments, but not of judicial decisions
subject to compulsory enforcement,

l have seen some of the planks, in
fact, helped to prepare some of them.
"The plank on the league of ma
tions is explicit. 1t backs the Presl-
dent to the limit and makes the issue
with the Republicans as clear-cut as
possible. The voters will have a
chance to decide between going into
the league and having America do
her share in world rehabilitation and
world peace, or staying out and arm
ing to the teeth, which is the Re
publican alternative.
1.-THE platform will be equally spe-
cifc on the vital subject of taxation,
high cost of living, the relations be.
tween the government and national
public utilities and the relations be-
tween capital and labor.
"On all these subjects the platform
will give expression to what we be-
lieve to be the sane, progressive SEN
timent of the country without going
into the dreamland of socialism,.
There seems to be little, if any
doubt that the majority control OF
the convention will lie with the ad
ministration.
This means that President Wilson's
friends will have their way as to the
organization of the convention ma
chinery. for, while it take two-third'
of the delegates of Democratic
convention to nominate the presiden,
tial and vice presidential candidates
all other convention business is by

bination can possibly defeat our pur-
poses.
I'm both candidate and platform
the Democratic party is going to be
as progressive and positive as the
Republican party is reactionary and
evaslve. In short, we are going to
accept the Republican challenge,
both for reasons of patriotism and
political expediency. 1t is the ire
vocable determination of those who
will control the Democratic conven-
ton to give the voters of the nation
a chance to choose between Harding
and government in the interest of big
business, and forward-looking man
and government in the interest of all
of the people.
"The nomination of Harding, in
the brutally frank way it was
brought about, and the adoption by
the Republicans of Jim Watson's re-
dictionary platform, have given the
Democrats their golden opportunity
and we are going to take advantage
of it."
l expressed my delight and sur
prise and called my friends attention
to the fact that up to now all the
talk in the hotel lobbies and candi-
dates headquarters had been about
booze.
81 know that" replied he, "butI
that is mostly propaganda by the
liquor people. They are making their
last stand here, trying to capture the
Democratic party for the purpose of
opening up the liquor issue. Take it'll
from me, they won't succeed. If the
Democratic party at this great crisis
in the affairs of the world and the
nation should permit itself to be used
for this purpose, it would be defeat
ed and discredited and would deserve
to be. Imagine a presidential cam
paign being waged in this country at
this critical juncture on the issue of +,
or not the prohibition
is to be enforced. If
liquor is even mentioned in the plat
form it would be the paramount issue
of the campaign. For that reason
if for no other, it will not be men
toned. The booze propagandists are
going to find that they have wasted
their money and their efforts.
"Some of the most patriotic and
wisest men in the party have beenl
at work for several weeks preparing
the tentative draft of the platform.
