oAKyILlE HAPPENINGS

A rat caused commotion in the Oakville railroad station at about six o'clock last night by mysteriously appearing in the waiting room, where about thirty-five factory workers from Watertown. most of them wo- men, were waiting for the 6:23 train for Watertown. Some of the ladies made a grand rush for the door, oth- CTS too frightened to think there was door in the building, jumped upon the seats, screaming as though they were being held up by the now fla nous Oakville bandit. The excite ment did not cease until the place was searched and the ladies assured that the monster animal had disap- peared as mysteriously as he came. F. c.

MOB INDECENT PLAY
Parisians Pelt and Hiss "A
 Dream of Egypt"
NIECE OF NAPOLEON III. ROOTED.
Notorious Moulin Rouge Scene of Disorder When MarQuisc de MOrny
 Attempted. Debut In Play
 Written by Herself.

ts PARIS, Jan. 4-There was remark. able scene last night at the notorious Moulin Rouge when the Marquise dc Morny, daughter of the famous Duke de Morny and a niece of Napoleon H.. made her debut in an act called "A Dream of Egypt" written by herself in collaboration with Mme. Gauthier- Villars, the author of "Claudine" and other decadent novels.
 The marauise, who is the divorced wife of the Marquis de Belbeuf. has already achieved an unenyiable reputa., tion, and her heralded appearance on the stage brought out a storm of criti- cism. To this the marquise replied in a letter published in a newspaper deny ing that her performance was intended to be suggestive and insisting that she meant to give, an artistic reproduction of the manners of ancient Egypt. In defending her appearance on the stage the marquise- said: ''This does not con stitute disgrace to the French aris- tocracy, as distinguished scion of this arstocracy,. the. Prince de Broglie, has been earning his living for some time past by conducting an orchestra in I New York" In spite of this statement a number | of clubmen and Bonapartists got to- gether and went to the Moulin Rouge, l where they conducted demonstration l the like of which seldom has been wit messed in this city. For ten full min {, utes the curtain could not be raised on the new act owing to the pandemo- nium from, galleries and boxes. < , When it finally went up, disclosing the marquise working out crypto- gram of the charm of life,s after the ] fashion of Galatea, and q beautiful Egyptian mummy in the person of
 Mime. Willy. the din was redoubled' This was followed by a rain of mis- siles of every description, the audience even throwing hassocks and boxes at the women on the stage. 7" . -'' 1 In spite of this vociferous demonstra
 tion the two women persisted in com pleting their act, which was as disgust
 ingly indecent as anything ever seen on the Parisian stage.
 When the curtain was rung down the crowd rushed toward the box occu
 pied by Mme Gauthier- -Villars and
 Mile. Polaire, who is starring in q
 stage adaptation of ''Claudine," and
 literally drove them from the theater.

The Colorado statesman., 1907-08-24

norance or for mercenary reasons are
opposing the sale of all household
remedies, a0hy is it not equally neces-
sdry for patients to knoio the compo-
sition Of the remedy prescribed by
physician? Does any sane person be-
lieve that the opium in a physicians
prescription is less potent or less like
ly to create drug habit than the OPT
um in a proprietary medicine? As
matter of fact, more opiuni-dddicts
and cocdin-lfends hare been made
through the criminal carelessness of
ignorant physicidns than by any other
means.
Unquestionably, there are a number
of proprietary remedies on the market
the sales of which should be prohibit
ed, and no doubt they will be when
the requirements of the Food and
Drugs Act are rigidly enforced; many
are frauds, pure and simple, and some
are decidedly harmful. OF the aver
age proprietary remedy, however, it
may truthfully be said that it is dis
tinctly better than the average physi-
clans prescription; for not only is it's
composition less secret, but it is pre-
pared for the proprietor by reputable
manufacturing pharmacists in magnifi-
Gently equipped laboratories and un-
der the supervision and advice of able
chemists, competent physicians and
skillful pharmacists. 1t should not be
considered strange, therefore, that so
many physicians prefer to prescribe
tfcse ready-prepared proprietary rem
edies rather than tsust those of their
own devising.

THE LOAD OF THE LAZY.
This Man Worked Hard in His Own
Particular Way.

One of the neighborhood loafers sat
comfortably smoking his foul pipe, ac-
cording to his daily custom, in the pre-
scription room of drug store. He
was soliloquizing aloud to the clerk.
Here is sample of his sound, con-
tented philosophy: 'Tll tell you what!
A man is mighty miserable if he amt
got nothin' to do, when he amt work
in at somethin'. 1 know tive tried
both ways an / find that there amt
nothin that makes man more miser-
able than doin' nothin'. But, you
know, there's two kinds of work; one
of them is where feller goes to work
at six in the mornin' an works with
his hands till six at night. The other
is where feller sits around an thinks.
l amt never happy unless I'm work
in, but 1 don't believe in that first
kind of work. l believe in thinkin' all
day long, an that's harder than the
other kind, l can tell you-you just
try it If you don't believe me; man
is mighty miserable when he amt
workin"

WOMEN IN MEDIEVAL TIMES.
In Many Ways They Had Easier Lives
Than Their Descendants.

The women of the sixteenth century
and earlier times had easier lives than
those of our generation. To be sure,
there are hundred labor saving de-
vices to-day which were unknown to
them. But in at least two important
respects they had the advantage over
their descendants. They waged no
conflict against dirt such as we carry
on from morning till night. The Eliz-
abethan had no prejudice against gar
bage in his front yard, vermin in his
bedroom, decaying rushes on the floor
of his banquet hall, or soiled lace in
his sleeves. The strength of arm and
spirit which now goes to keeping clean
was left to the medieval lady for other
tasks. Moreover, although her cloth
ing was gorgeous-rich with embroid-
CRY and lace, and heavy with jewels
it was not subject to rapid changes of
fashion. The cut of a sleeve or the
hang of skirt was settled for five
years rather than five months. Life
was then free from the modern terror
of looking like last years rag bag"

AFFLICTED ONLY AT TIMES.
Good Reason for Capt. Bascomb's In
termittent Hearing.

When Capt. Bascomb had left his
old friend, Capt. Somers, and the new
school teacher sitting on the south
porch, and had disappeared down the
road, the young woman spoke of him
with some curiosity.
Il understand from Mrs. Bascomb
that her husband was very deaf, al
most stone-deaf,' she told me, I'm
sure said the school teacher. But
he seemed to hear all we said with
perfect ease"
Capt. Somers leaned toward her
and spoke in low, cautious tone, al
though there was no eavesdropper tu
hear him.
Don't let Mis- Bascomb know it,"
he said, hurriedly. HE does seem
to hear pretty well when she amt
round, but none of us folks ever let
on to her. She's a good woman as
ever lived, but most tremendous
bosser and an everlastin' talker. An'
we all think that Gersh Bascomb be-
gun to realize ten years ago that IL
he didn't want to be harried right off'n
the face O. the earth, the thing for
him to do was to grow deef, gradual,
but steady-an' he's done it, to all
intents an purposes, ma'am!"

BABY TORTURED BY ITCHING.
Rash Covered Face and Feet-WouId
Cry Until Tired out-Speedy
Cure by Cuticura.

My baby was about nine months
old when she had rash on her face and
feet. Her feet seemed to irritate her
most, especially nights. They would
cause her to be broken in her rest, and
sometimes she would cry until she was
tired out. l had heard of so many
cures by the Cuticura Remedies that
thought l would give them a trial.
The Improvement was noticeable in a
few hours. and before l had used one
box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet
were well and have never troubled her
since. l also used it to remove what
is known as cradle cap from her
head. and it worked like charm, as it
cleansed and healed the scalp at the
same time. Mrs. Hattie Currier,

ALL RELIGIONS IN LONDON.
Faithist Community Latest Addition
to Its Queer Sects.

The Faithist community which has
established a modest footing in Bal
ham, and whose comprehensive gospel
ranges from the creation of man to
the glory and labors of the gods and
goddesses of the Etherian heavens" is
the latest addition to the long list of
London's religious sects, which are
now almost as many as the days of
the year. In London the Chinaman
burns his incense stick in more than
one joss-house in the east end, the Ma
hometan has his mosque, the Malayan
his temple, near st. Georges street
east; the Parsees worship the sun in
Bloomsbury, the Mormons have a mis-
sion in Islington, and in many parts
of the metropolis the Buddhists and
Ancestor Worshipers perform their
strange rites. OF Christian sects in
London there are at least 300, includ-
Ing the Cokelers, the disciples of VIII
liam Sirgood, the Walworth shoe
maker; the Peculiar People, who pre-
fer prayer to physicians; the Sande-
manians, the followers of Joanna
Southcott, the prophetic serving
maid; the Shakers and the Seventh
Day Baptists.
