RAIN HAD NO TERROR
FOR WET GOODS MEN.
Liquor Dealers Feast on CLANS
Despite the Heavy
DOWnpOur.

Perhaps It's because they are in the
habit of dealing in wet goods that the
members of the German Branch,
LIQUOR Dealers Protective Association,
did not mind a bit the downpour of
water at their annual clambake in
Kemper's Park. 1t wound up at an
early hour this morning with every
evidence of success.
When things were going at a warm
pace John Wiesemann, the president of
the organization, made a ~congratula-
tory address to the members and their
friends. He welcomed the guests and
then President Shuster. of the English
branch, expressed the hope that the
saloonkeepers would soon be delivered

TONY PASTOR, WHO
NEVER FORGOT A
FRIEND, IS DEAD
Adopting Theatrical Profession
When a Boy, Made Many Stars
When Success Came.

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-Tony Pastor,
veteran theatrical manager, is dead in
Elmhurst, l.. L. The cause of death
was a complete physical breakdown.
Many old-timers remember the en-
thusiasm Tony Pastor used to kindle by
singing "The Star Spangled Banner
at "444," as his historic American The
atre was called-at the outbreak of the
Civil War.
Tony Pastor was the artistic father
of a galaxy of stars or the legitimate
stage, who obtained their start under
his guidance in one or another of his
variety theatres.
Mr.. Pastor, when s years old, made
his first appearance in public in the
old Dey Street Church, singing comic
duets with Christian B. Woodruff, who
became a State Senator. Tony's father,
violin s~oloist, wanted him to follow
some ether career. At 10 Tony Pastor
was a minstrel, and after that a cir
Gus performer, doing everything from
ringmaster to clown.
For nan years he had engaged in
a secret system of charity whereby he
paid a small sum each week to actors
who helped him to his success and who
are now poor.

Pleasant Reading for the Fat

What a simple and inexpensive Ceast
expensive solution your druggist has
solving Of the fat woman's problem the
Marmola Prescription Tablets provide. She
takes one OF these harmless. pleasant lit
tie tablets after each meal and at bedtime
and loses from 10 TO 16 ounces of fat each
day. and yet suffers no harm, creates no
disturbances inwardly, produces nc
wrinkles and is put to practically no ex-
pense, for an effective quantity can be
obtained for only 10 cents.
This harmlessness combined with the ex-
treme effectiveness which distinguishes
these tablets is due, on the authority OF
the Msrmola Co., Detroit, Mich, to the
fact that they are made in strict accord
ance with the famous prescription: u ounce
Marmola. n ounce Fluid Extract Cascara
Aromatic and 3A ounces Syrup Simplex.
which, as everybody knows, has long been
put up and recommended by our best

Worth of His Beauty.

Distant dentist has been sued
by a Mr.. Smith for damages done
to his mustache.
Mr.. Smith stated that he went
to have a tooth filled. While the
excavation was being done the
hair of his mustache became en-
tangled in the machine, and
some of it was torn out by the
roots.
The whole of one side of my
lip was bald before / realized
what had happened, " he contin-
ued plaintively. "The assistant
became very excited, and paC d
up and down the room. He
seized brush, scarcely knowing
what he was doing, and tried to
brush part of the center of the
mustache over the bald portion.
Il asked for a looking-glass,
but he did not give me one. Then
he exclaimed: What have |
done, Mr.. Smith, What shall l
dc? | shall have to give up
dentistry. l never did such a
thing before"
"The assistant offered to pay
a hairdresser for putting the
mustache right" Mr.. Smith
declared. I saw Mr.. Cox and
he advised me to have a clean
shave. He said he had known a
man to have the center of his
mustache pulled out.
Il replied: Shave! Indeed,
no; not after twenty years. "
In cross-examination Mr.. Smith
said he was satisfied that he
would never have a proper mus
tache again, and that he would
have it shaved off.
Il suffered great pain, he
added, but it is not for that |
am asking damages-it is for the
great Disagreement. 1t has

Smith would look better without
one is a matter for the jury"

COTTON CHOPPER is

Experiments recently made with

gathered to see the operation.
The experiments were conducted

thin twenty acres of cotton in

ION The Bridge at Midnight

Will open the Columbus Theatre
Friday night. This is the sue
.cessful comedy-drama that con-
tains a reproduction of Chicago S
most celebrated feat Of modern
engineering-the lift or jack
knife bridge over the Chicago
river. The stage bridge works
as perfectly as the original and
opening and closing as a steamer
passes, makes one OF the great
est stage effects and achiev-
ments on the modern stage. The
entire river view, including the
bridge, is masterpiece of
scene painting and construction.
AS the two huge sections of the
roadway, the valves of the jack
knives, rise to let a steamer pass,
audiences never fail to bestow
tremendous applause. Much Of
of this, of course, is due to the
development of the deeply inter
esting story of the play at this
point-the story of the long. sad
search of blind mother for her
child. stolen when a baby. There
are several immensely funny
played by well known
comedians, and the rest of the
company is fully equipped and
equal to the many demands Of
comedy drama. While
it is a strong play, and scenical-
ly impressive, all sensational
eXaggeratiOn is
avoided.

Finger Nail Fashion.

Fashion changes even in finger
nails. says a reliable exchange.
and the pointed nails of a few
years ago are looked upon as al
most barbaric at present. 1t al
so seems that women are becom-
ing sensible in another digital de-
tail. High polishing is no long
er the rule, as of course, it new
er was practiced by women of
fine taste. The pointed nails
AMI high polish have passed out,
and the chances are historians in
the future days will look back
and rank them with crinoline as
evidences of a crude and undis-
eliminating age.
In caring for their finger nails
women now try to follow nature
instead of opposing or distorting
it. The natural contour of the
nail is preserved as far as possi-
BILE, and the manicure is not per
to pursue any of her
sometimes costly hobbies.
