was kept up for a time by Mrs. Milly
Thorne and Mrs. Anna Abel. who is the
mother of Mabel and Edith Taliaferro. but
after Mr. Pastors death it was dropped.
But one day not long ago Mrs. Kate
Douglas Wiggin, whose "Rebecca" Edith
Taliaferro is playing, and William Harris
and some other people decided that the
custom ought TO be revived. They formed
a committee for the continuation of the

Free Remedy For
Weak Bowels

There are two forms of bodily
cleanliness, the external and the in
ternal. The one is for your pride in
yourself; the other for your life and
health. Both are important, but of
vastly more importance in the long
run is the internal cleanliness.
This is one point that all should watch
about their body-the cleanliness of the
, bowels. Keep them clean and free from
distractions. To do this you must have
one or two movements of the bowels
each twenty-four hours. If your system
does not do this naturally, in the process
Of eating and drinking then you must
obtain aid Of some kind. After finding
out that cathartics. salts and such things
relieve you for day, but bind you up
worse than ever the r"';t day. then try a
simpler and more IA .Iral. remedy like
