In spite of the heat a crowded au-
dience greeted the Girton company's
opening of "A Midnight Marriage"
"A Midnight Marriage is from the
pen of Hal Reid one of the best known
writer's of melodrama, and it is good
melodrama, containing all of the
heart interest, emotion and thrilling
effects necessary to make a successful
"mellerdrama."
The story of the piece is one that
one reads very often in the daily pa
pers-that of young New York bro
ker reared in luxury and with too
much money to spend and too much
time to waste, who, while on spree,
marries young and beautiful music
hall singer in the Bowery. He takes
her home, where his parents, aristo-
Gratis, resent his action in refusing to
leave the girl, and turn them both
from their home.

EXPLOSION OF BALLOON
INJURIES MANY AUSTRIANS

VIENNA, July 24.-An army officer
and a number of peasants have been
severely injured by the explosion OF
the Austrian military balloon Hun
garia, in the province of Neutra, Hun
gary.
The balloons started from the Vienna
arsenal in the morning, and had
slow, uneventful journey until Lieut.
Hoftstetter, who was in command, de-
cided to alight about O'clock
A large crowd of peasants assembled
to hold and pack the balloon, but as
it was being emptied of gas a violent
explosion occurred, which completely
wrecked the balloon. The officer and
peasants were enveloped in sheet OF
flame. The accident is believed to have
been due to a peasant smoking pipe

Quaker Oats ID the best OF all foods:
It Is also the cheapest. When such
men as Prof. Fisher OF Yale University
and Sir James Crichton Browne,
LID. FRS. Of London spend the
best part OF their lives In studying
the great question Of the nourishing
and strengthening qualities of Differ
ent foods, 1t is certain that their ad-
vice is absolutely safe to follow.
Professor Fisher found In his ex-
periments for testing the strength and
endurance OF athletes that the meat
eaters were exhausted long before the
men who were fed on such food as
Quaker Oats. The powers of endur-
ance of the non-meat eaters were
about eight times those of the meat
eaters.
Sir James Crichton Browne says
eat more oatmeal, eat plenty of it and
eat 1t frequently. SO

TURN FLOWERS INTO MONEY
Thrifty Swiss Have Colonies Of Bees
to Gather Honey from Natures
Profusion.

An attractive feature of every Swiss
landscape in spring and summer is the
beauty and variety of wild flowers
growing in profusion on hillsides and
lower mountain ranges, while the val
leys resemble beautiful mosaics In the
rich and varied tints of flowers that
cluster in the greensward. The wealth
of blossom in addition to identifying
the landscape Is turned by the thrifty
Swiss into profit. The flora Of Switzer-
land possesses qualities that produce
delicious honey, and thousands of col
onies of bees may be seen in the
country, being utilized by the people
to increase the food supply and COM
mercial products; in fact, the produc-
ton of honey and wax constitutes an
industry of considerable Importance
to the Confederation, as Is shown by
statistics furnished by the Swiss So
ciety of Agriculturists.
1t Is estimated that there are 250, 900
hives or colonies of bees in the coun-
try, each OF which produces 40 pounds
Of honey during the season, total
Of 10,000,000 pounds year. The av-
erage price Of Swiss honey for the
year 1909 was 25 cents a pound, CIV
ing the years product a total value
Of s2,500,000. The statistics furnished
by the Society Of Apiculturists show
that the highest average production of
1909 was in the Canton of Lucerne,
where 5000 colonies of bees produced
$4,000 pounds of honey, an average
of So pounds to the colony. The next
highest average, AZ pounds, was in the
Canton of Berne, where $500 colonies
produced 403,2OO pounds of honey. The
territory comprising the Cantons Of
Lucerne and Berne is rich in the fora
especially suited to honey production.
The honey crop of Switzerland, val
ued at $2,500,OOO, is largely profit to
those engaged in the industry, nature
producing the raw material.

Fighting Disease in Greece.

Consul General George Horton has
made report from Athens on the
conspicuous work of Greek physicians
in combating the country's chief
scourges-malarial fever and tubercu-
losis. An annual average of 1000
persons die each year from the for
mer, while in epidemic years, due to
excessive rains; the number exceeds
5000, which was the case in 1905. The
population of Greece Is 2,433,806. The
people have been interested through
lectures, pamphlets. ETC.. to fight the
Misunderstanding mosquito by draining
stagnant ponds and throwing petro-
leum on them. A tuberculosis con-
gress will be held in Athens next
year, to which will be invited not
only physicians. but all the mayors
and other prominent people of Greece.

DRY SHAMPOO BETTER THAN
SOAP AND WATER.
(From the New York Graphic

NrTom tne NEW IOTk Grdpnlc)
Once in two or three months is as
often as 1t is advisable to wash the
hair with soap and water" says Clari-
bel Montague, the beauty expert. THE
rubbing, drying and rinsing, together
with the action of the alkali in the
soap-especially the alkali-tend to
make the hair coarse, hard and brittle.
Too much moisture causes the hair to
become thin and lose its color.
"A simple and satisfactory dry sham
poo is made by mixing four ounces of
powdered orris root with four ounces
of therox. Sprinkle tablespoonful of
this mixture on the head and brush
thoroughly through the hair once or
twice a week. That Is all there Is to
1t. This treatment not only keeps the
hair light, fluffy and lustrous, but
therox produces the growth of new
hair"

A LITTLE THING
Changes the Home Feeling.

Coffee blots out the sunshine from
many home by making the mother,
or some other member of the house
hold, dyspeptic, nervous and irritable.
There are thousands of cases where
the proof Is absolutely undeniable.
Here is one.
A Wis mother writes:
II was taught to drink coffee at an
early age, and also at an early age be-
came victim to headaches, and as
grew to womanhood these headaches
became a part of me, as was scarcely
ever free from them
About FIVE years ago friend urged
me to try Postum. I made the trial
and the result was so satisfactory that
we have used. 1t ever since.
my husband and little daughter
were subject to bilious attacks, but
they have both been entirely free from
them since we began using Postum in
stead of coffee. no longer have
headaches and my health is perfect"
II some of these tired. nervous. ir-
ritable women would only leave of
coffee absolutely and try Postum they
would find wonderful change in their
life. 1t would then be filled with sun
shine and happiness rather than weari-
ness and discomfort. And think what
an effect II would have on the family,
for the mood of the mother is largely
responsible for the temper Of the chill

She has bossed the duke from the day
she married him-and it's been good
thing for him. Before he married Miss
Zimmerman, the duke of Manchester
had his name in the papers more often
than he cared to see it. He is a big,
outstanding man and when he was in
the first flush of youth and without a
responsibility he made a practice of
tearing things loose.
When he married Helena thinner
man of Cincinnati, he Strengthened up
personally and when his father-in-law,
who had made a pile out of American
railroads, made his acquaintance, he
began to get his financial affairs
Strengthened out. It was great COM
bination. Now the duke As taken seri-
ously as a member of society and in
the councils of the house of lords, and
his fatherin-law's help and advice
have taken him off the financial
ragged edge.
Fifteen years ago he showed a lot
of ability and enterprise as spender
of money. Now that same ability
and enterprise are turned In the other
direction, and, considering what prop.
erty he had to begin with, he has
made an excellent showing.
Here's something to show of what
clay the duke is made. He and the
duchess left Cincinnati just the other
day to go south for visit to the for
mer home of the dukes mother, and
when they went they left little re
greet among the bellboys of the Hotel
Sinton, where they had stopped. When
1t became known that the duke was
to visit the hotel, the bellhops began
to count on retiring with fortunes
when he had left.
They're still on the job.
The duke stayed three days-and
was as close listed as a travelling
salesman. One dollar was his limit
and two bits was the usual thing. In
the three days he passed over in
tips no more than FIVE dollars, though
the hotel Hobbies looked as IL the
Brotherhood Of the Upturned Palm
was holding its national convention
there. That's only one instance OF
what the Zimmerman training will dc
for man who spent several years
making an international reputation as
a profigate.
