To this Maurice did not reply, but
with Margaret still beside him he fol-
lowed Prince Louis up the narrow
ancient stairway called from it's shape
The Couch, into the gloomy audience
chamber of the Castle of CORTLAND.
They reached the hall and then at
last, as though restored to power by
his surroundings, Prince Louis found
his tongue.

Obedient to that word, Margaret of
CORTLAND broke from between her
brother and Prince Ivan and ran to
the tall woman, laying her brow on
her breast. The Prince of Muscovy
continued calm and immovable.
"And why?" he asked in tone full
of contempt. why cannot the Prin-

When Governor Russell Was Puzzled

The late Governor Russell was max
ing a speech on the tariff in the city
hall in Lawrence during one of his
campaigns, and took occasion several
times to refer to the duty ON boiler
iron. The Governor was considerably
mystified to note that whenever he
used the term there was deafening
applause.
1t was afterward explained to his
excellency that considerable portion
of his audience cared very little about
the duty on boiler iron, but cherished
undying admiration for the late John
Boyle O'Reilly, to whom they thought
he was referring. Hence the APP

A Bloodless Fight Between a
Tablet and a Habit-The
Tablet Wins.

At the age of q Clarence had good digestion.
He had gastric juice that could dissolve dough-
nuts and turn apple skins into good blood cor
puscles.
At the age of "a he began to be profuse about
the waist and lean backwards. He also began
to cultivate several chns. In his new-found pride
he began to thing it his duty to gorge himself
on everything. the good and the bad. for appetite
feeds appetite-and every good thing is
abused.
His pictures showed that he took on weight
after lie put his collar on.
At the age Of % Clarence married and went to
boarding. On top of all this he attended oyster
suppers and wine dinners. which reduced the
size of his collar from 1914 to is. With still
abiding faith in the STRENGTH Of bis stomach
he gulped his meals and chewed them after
wards.
At the age of % Clarence began to hear an
inward vo.ce-a warning from the stomach. AZ
ter each meal he would feel bloated-and belch.
ing became a habit.
He began to be light eater-and a heavy
thinker. He tried to think out a cure. for now
he would sit down at his meals absolutely dis
eusted at the thought sight of anything to
eat.
He would sit down at his meals without the
trace of an appetite. just because II time to
eat.
He would often feel a gnawing. unxatisfied
''stiIl hungry feeling in his stomach even after
he through eating, wnether MS meal wab
well cooked or not.
And he suffered O good many other things with
his stomach that he could not explain, but that
made him aroucby. miserable. out o sorts and
generally sour on everybody and every thing
Finally he read an account, something like this
about the truly wonderful results obtained from
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets In all cases Of stom-
acb trouble dyspepsia, and SO on. He bought a
soc box at the drug store. and took the whole
box. When he started he had little falkland

Eairvlaud in Miniature.

The picture of a fairyland in miniature
is presented this afternoon in the Belasco
Theater, where che elfkin play, Little
Red Riding Hood is being produced I'M
der the direction Of Miss Hawke. The
little masters and misses who are taking
part in the play are handsomely cos
tuned. and the opening scenes, with cal
cium and electric light effects, presented
a picturesquely bewildering spectacle. The
program includes fancy dancing, ballet
dancing and toe dancing and many
scenes in fairyland. One OF the striking
features of the performance was. the
grand ballet of coral and seaweed, -
which was both new and novel.
There are new songs and tableaux on
the program, and the house is filled to
it's capacity with most appreciative au-
djence. The wee actors and actresses
are mostly the pupils of Miss Hawke.
