right at the door, and you can move
from grip to basin with ease and as
surance. And also every basin has a
dental spray.
And the parlor cars are also wide
and square-decked. 1t is a room, no
nall in which you sit. And the most
comfortable chairs in the world are
there. The tops remain stationary
to support tine head, and the backs
sink to a drowsy angle, and every
thing fits" And the observation car
is so comfy" and homelike and ev-
erything else that; you wouldn't be-
lieye it unless you saw it.
And from end to end of the new
trains that are to be made up of these
cars there are special appliances such
as never train had before. There is
little automatic gate that can be
hitched onto the rear of the train so
that no one can fall off, not even an
investigating baby on hands and
knees. And the lower berths have
curtains Of their own, and no one ha
to view the pedal extremities Of the
upper berth occupant as he climbs to
the realms above.
Take it altogether the new equip
ment of the 500 is just about the fin
est ever attempted by a railroad. 1t
cost over half million to put these
cars into service. And that IS con-
siderable of a sum. But it is worth it.
You cannot get anything better or
more beautiful and you certainly can
not get anything safer.
So the 500 has a right to be BIT
proud and self-congratulatory. Wait
until you ride on one of those trains
and see.-Minneapolis Daily News.

If your Stomach Is lacking in d.

drugs, but a reinforcement of diges-
tive agents, such as are naturally at
work in the stomach.
People with weak stonmachs should
take a little Diapepsin occasionally,

no feeling like lump of lead III the

PARTISAN SAGE is not guaranteed

guaranteed by the we'll known drug

dandruff and stop itching scalp, or
money back. Sold in every town in
America by leading druggists for 50
cents a bottle. Read Miss Kruger's
letter.

ROMANTIC STORY
OF CUBAN GIRL
LITTLE ACTRESS APPEARING At
ORPHEUM HAS ADVENTUR.
Gus CAREER.
Was Held Prisoner in Morro Castle
by the Spaniards and Was Rescued
BY Americans,

The life story Of Little Sunshine"
the junior member of the singing act,
Gardner, West and Sunshine" which
is at the Orpheum tonight and
Wednesday night, is to say the least
as interesting. and in some respects
as strange. as fiction. The story it.
self has been told and reto!d many
times, and at the close OF the Spanish
American war it was printed in nearly
all OF the large newspapers from the
Atlantic to the Pacific
Little Sunshine" is Cuban. This
IS th.e whole story in a nutshell Of
her Identity Who her parents were
nobody knows, and the shroud of mys-
terry wells all else concerning her
birth, save that she is an orphan.
During the last part of the war.
Sunshine" was virtually held a pris-
oner by the Spaniards in Moro cas-
tie, her Offense being assisting United
States officials by carrying messages
for them. She was allowed the free
dom Of the dingy prison, but could not
60 outside of the walls.
1t was at the close of the war while
/ travelling with a theatrical company
through Cuba, Miss West and Mr..
Gardner, the other members of the.
trio, in company with the theatrical
troupe, visited the MORO prison. The
officer in charge, seeking to entertain
the visitors, called Little Sunshine"
and with her Cuban dances and songs
she amused and delighted the Amer
icanos.' 1t was plainly evident why
she had been named Little Sunshine"
and was the pet of the garrison.
The theatrical people were all great
ly fascinated by the Cuban picka-
ninny,' as Mr.. Gardner calls her and
after considerable: pleading, Miss West
and Mr.. Gardner finally persuaded the
officials to allow her to accompany
them to this country, agreeing to
adopt her and provide her with an ed
ucation and a good home. Since then
this little Cuban girl has been seen
in every large city in the United
States and Canada, and is rapidly
dancing and singing her way to fame.

Uncle Sam Gives Facts About Fleas

HERE may be those who imagine

But If they will read certain facts re-

will be disabused OF the notion. The
information is given in a pamphlet en-
titled "Notes on Agents for Flea De-
struction." Fleas, 1t appears from
these notes. survive all the usual
means OF insect assassination and
others less common.
But how to kill the flea is not the
only problem before the investigators.
1t Is quite as much ola puzzle to know
when he Is dead.
1t was found that when it comes to
death by drowning a f1ea has more
lives than cat. That is to say when
the medium is water. But feas left
swimming over night in mixture OF
glycerin and water are dead the fol.
lowing morning.
