Once a king had a daughter whom
he dearly loved. She had always
been brought up very sensibly, in spite
of her being a princess, and had been
taught how to dress herself and how
to do up her own hair without the
help of a lady's maid. And her habit
was, after she had dressed in the
morning, to go into the garden to get
a breath of fragrant air before break
fast and to gather a flower to place in
her hair.
One day, when she was In the gar
den, she heard a voice saying!
How viii you have your troubles
when you are young or when you are
old2'
This happened several times and
the princess, filled with curiosity and
tired of hearing always the same ques-
ton, went one day into the palace and
said to her maid of honor:
do you know what has happened
to me these last few days? ] keep
hearing a voice that says to me, when
\ uhl 5uNlCl thS III " hASh
will you do; go through your troubles
in your youth, or in your old age?"
The maid of honor replied:
Listen, royal lady: For my part, ]
should say that | preferred having
my troubles when young. With my
old age | would acquire more power"
The princess cembed and dressed
herself the next morning and went
into the garden as usual, where she
heard the voice that spoke 10 her.
and when it asked her the curious
question. the princess replied that she
would rather go through her troubles
in her youth than in her old age.
The voice rejoined:
Take leave, then, of everything
here that is yours"
THAT is not so difficult" said the
princess.
But when she came to actually say
good-by it vas another matter. 1t

Flatulence is due to the presence OF
gas in the stomach and intestines.
which often rolls about. producing b0r-
borygmi, OF rumbling noises in tho "A
testinal system, and causes the victim,
OF this trouble considerable ernbarrass-
ment whom such noises occur while in

An analysis Of gas from the stomach
shows that II consists 10 a great extent
OF nitrogen and carbonic acid It is
therefore probable that some Of the
gas in the stomach consists simply OF
air which has been swallowed. although
for the most part, the source Of flatu-
lence is the gas given off from the food
In the abnormal processes OF decompo-
sition.
In cases Of chronic gastric catarrh.
the secretion OF gastric Juice in the
stomach is deficient. the food is d.
gested slowly. and fermentation oc-

Swallowed air, however, plays a more
/ important part in causing fiatulenoe. or
gas in the stomach and intestines than
is generally supposed, and while food
may be swallowed without carrying.

such as pea-soup. appear to carry down

Flatulent distension of the intestines
occurs when a large amount OF gas or
air. either swallowed or evolved from
the decomposition Of food, escapes from
the stomach into the intestines through
the pylorus. The enormous distension
] Of the intestines and dilation OF the
I stomach with gases. and the rapidity
with which such fiatulence occurs, has
long been a puzzle to medical men, and
has led some to think that the only
/ possible explanation thereof is a rapid
/ evolution of gas from the blood.
In the treatment Of gas in the stom-
ach and intestines, charcoal is consid-
cred by most physicians as the leading
and most effective remedy. Carmina-
tives, or medicines. such as pepper

! STUART'S CHARCOAL LOZENGES
do away with the necessity OF under
going the disagreeable experience OF
belching or expelling stomach gases
thorugh the mouth. by completely alb
sorbing every particle Of gas or swai-
lowed air in he stomach. and also in
the intestinal system. which prevents
collie. and over-distension with accumu-
lated air.
These wonderful iozenges should be
used for all cases Of fatulence and de-

NEXT WEEK AT
AVENUE THEATRE
Merely Mary Ann to be
Given by Popular CONFESS
and Edwards Players

AT the Avenue Theatre beginning Mon
day night, Messrs. Connoss. Edwards and
Roth will give Wilmington theatres goers
a chance TO SEQ one OF the most beautiful
plays ever written, Merely Mary Ann"
by Israel zangwill-
This play really gave Eleanor Robson
the foundation OF her present prominence
in the theatrical profession. having made
such a pronounced success Of Il that Il
ran. when originally produced. 800 nights
az the Garden Theatre in New York, and
zoo nights at tho Garrick. also in New
York.
Mary Ann, an orphan is young maid
of all work in a London lodging house.
In the house lives a young musician with
whom Mary Ann falls in love. uncon-
sclously and humbly. with whole-souled
devotion.
News Is brought from Mary AIMS ra-
tive village in Yorkshire that large for
tuno has been left her. and erstwhile ne
glectful. though well-to-do relatives come
forward 20 take I'm charge the education
and polishing OF the heiress. She goes
away with her relatives and the musician
goes TO tho Continent TO hard work and
eventually to achieve fame.
The years pass. and the scene is in the
home OF Mary Ann. now beautiful grace
ful and accomplished. yet stlll simple and
sweet. They are all talking about the
wonderful new composer. who has lately
become famous. He Is brought to the
house that night by a friend and though
Mary Ann at first treats him distantly,
feeling embarrassed at the remembrance
Of their last meeting, they eventually fnd
the way 10 each others hearts. and a final
delicate touch Is given by Mary AIMS
serving him with coffee. wearing the old
white gloves, which he gave her in the
beginning. and which she has treasured
through the years OF their separation.
It is seldom that this play is produced
by a stock company, tho reason for this Is
that the royalty is so high. and it speaks
well for the managers Of the Avenue The
atre in being able to present play of
such excellent material to their patrons.

Clean Linoleum.

A floor covering Of good linoleum for
the kitchen should hold its own for
at least five years. The way to pro-
long its period of usefulness is 20 keep
it clean: dirt ground into the finished
surface by the tread of feet is the floor
coverings greatest enemy.
Linoleum needs no soap, ammonia or
strong cleaning agents. A simple wip-
ing with a cloth just moist with warm
water Is all that Is needed. In one
country home skinned milk mixed
with the water was used. but the own
er had a herd of thirty cows. Once
