by program that would have done
credit to a community several times
larger than ours. Mr.. Meffert, with
his usual generosity, kindly allowed
the use of Euclid Hall and had erect
ed for the occasion large and roomy
stage with ample dressing rooms, etc.,
while the entire hall was tastefully
decorated with holly, magnolia and
other evergreens and a large Xmas
tree laden with many handsome
presents occupied one corner of the
stage. The music, consisting of piano
with cornet and guitar accompani-
ments was ably rendered by Misses
Martin, Wood and Billings. Prompt
ly at half past seven the doors were
thrown open and within short time
there had gathered the largest con-
course of visitors ever seen in Lowell.
The program was rich, varied and
attractive, few features of which
was: Poets Dream" "a Modern
Lachinvar," Naughty ZelI," "The
Owl Critic" "The Widow Budd,"
"The Neighborly Quarrel" "The
Village Tramp" Lost in New York"
and several others were Rotations

round of applause. Perhaps the

clorped Bowels.

Constipation means not only un-
healthy Accommodations in the bowels,
but condition poisonous to the en-
tire body. 1t generates foul gases
which poison the stomach, liver, heart,
kidneys and blood, thus derangIng
the whole system. Moreover, it
causes a paralysis in the muscular
structure OF the bowels, hence chron-
ic constipation ensues with all its ac-
campaigning evils. A simple cathar-
tic is only temporary benefit. What
is needed to permanently cure is a
tonic that will strengthen the bowel
structure and restore natural peristal-
tic movements. PRICKLY ASH BIT
TIERS has an established reputation of
many years standing as system tom
ic and laxative. 1t does not purge or
grip the bowels, leaving them weak
and helpless, as do the drastic cathar-
tics. Its action is gentle yet effect
ual. 1t stimulates and strengthens
the bowels, regulates the liver, tones
up the stomach and when there is
any kidney arrangement it promptly
extends its curative influence to those
organs. Sold by Autobiography Drug

10. the word went forth throughout
all Jerusalem that Jesus, the Naza-

And when the Sabbath day was
come the people gathered together
nigh unto the synagogue to hear Jesus.
But while Jesus tarried in Bethany
over night, and while the multitude
slept,
Behold the servants of Satan came
and wrote upon the doors of the syna-
gogue. In letters of Greek, Latin, and
Hebrew: Satan, even Satan himself,
will preach unto you also on the Sab

Now when the morning was come
the multitude were assembled.
And when they perceived what was
written they were exceeding wroth.
And they began to say, one to

about to lay violent hands upon him
who had charge of the synagogue, and
to stone him.
And to tear down from the doors of
the synagogue that which was written.

And perceiving the uproar amongst
the people, he lifted up his voice and
sayeth unto them =

A "scsi.listic" Supreme Court.

New York Journal
The news that comes up from New
Orleans about the Louisiana Supreme
Court, the Illinois Central Railway
Company and the New Orleans water
front, Il likely to send spasms of in
dignation first, and then of fear, along
the splnes Of a good many people.
IL seems that the railway company
got the city council - some former
members Of which are now meditating
IN states prison-tO give 1t certain
rights on tine river front, adjoining
which the company had bought sixty
acres OF ground. AS soon as the ordi-
nance was made good, the conn
pany spent 100000 in building docks,
wharves, warehouses, and 20 on, and
last October President Stuyvesant Fish
conducted an impressive ceremony at
and by which the improvements were
solemnly dedicated as the Stuyvesant
docks.
But now the unsympathetic Su-
pFeme court OF Louisiana has stepped
m and upset everything by deciding
that the city councils gift is invalid,
because, the judges say, 1.-THE river
bank il the property of the whole
people, open to all traffic and cannot
be set aside to the special use Of any
one company"
This socialistic o., 10 describe it more
accurately, this communistic decision
Of the Louisiana Supreme court, Is
bound 10 stir up q considerable row, in
this part Of the country at any rate.
Down IN Louisiana there may still be
traces Of the idea that this country
was not discovered, settled, fought for
aud preserved for the exclusive benefit
Of the great business interests" But
In these parts that idea is as extinct as
