BEAUTY OF PHYSICAL HEALTH.
No Attractiveness for Women Without
Good Digestion.

ITO look young and keep your beau
ty you must have good digestion"
says beauty culturist I'VE feed our
patrons upon herbs; we give them
greens, and we advise them to take
acid fruits. When a gypsy woman gets
out of sorts she lives upon dandelion
greens; she mixes sweet herbs; she
doctors herself with the fruits of the
earth, and she recovers.
Outdoor life is everything for the
woman who wants to keep young.
Her walk gives away the woman
who does not want people to know
how old she is. Usually she loses her
elasticity. And she takes to high heels
and stilted walk Wear convention
al clothing and be elastic in your gait;
in that way you will look younger.
Il advise women generally to join a
dancing class. By taking the steps
one can keep up ones elasticity winter
and summer. | have a class of four
women who come three times a week
to learn the gypsy fandangoes and the
Spanish dances. They find that they
breathe better. feel better and are
more healthy generally from this ex-
ercise."

!. The man of the Hour.,,

The Man of the Hour, . that sem
sational success among recent plays of
American life and character, will be
acted here, in the Lyceum, Wednes-
day evening, April 18th, by William
A. Brady and Joseph r. Grismer's
special cast. This marks the third
year of this uncommon bit of dramatic
composition, the work of George
Broadhurst. 1.-The Man of the Hour"
has already broken some records in
the way Of prolonged runs. 1t was
acted without interruption from De-
cember s, 1906, until December, 81,
1907, in the Savoy theatre, New York
City. being the only serious play yet
produced that ran right through the
summer months in the metropolis. 1t
had sixteen-weeks' summer run in
Chicago in 1907, with no other dra-
matte composition to divide interest,
all the other theatres being filled with
musical pieces. 1t ran an even six
months in the fremont theatre, Bos-
ton, and will, in October, begin three
months run in Philadelphia.

A day or two ago young man bear
ing strong resemblance to Bowery
9 tough" drove DIP to police head
quarters here behind an old nag much
the worse for wear hitched to dilapi-
dated wagon. The man alighted and
came into the chiefs office. On his
breast was big badge bearing the in
scription Special Officer, Madison,
N. r." TIE young fellow walked up
to the chief and said, /" Hey, is youse
de big noise?" The chief admitted
his identity and the fellow unfolded
his tale.
I'm de bloke whot catches de dogs,
see. I've been bit seventy-fXe times
and kin prove 1t. Now yer see, l
gotter job in Madison catchin' de
dogs and fought as how 1 could git a
job here and in Dover catchin m
too. Now how about, pard?"
Chief Holloway told the man, who
did not give his name, that he hired
no dog catchers and referred him to
James E. Welsh, of the S. P. Z. A..
Mr.. Welsh did not think he needed
any assistance in that line, despite the
hundreds of CANNES running at large
about the streets and the would-be
cornerer of the dog catching business
in Morris county departed for Madi-
son.
