Incidents Of the History Of Mis-
sions VIII BE Re-enaeted by
Players at Exposition.

The Pageant of Darkness and Light
Is to be the most spectacular feature
of the great Missionary Exposition,
"The World in Cincinnati" at Music
Hall, March to April g. The pur-
pose of the pageant Is to set forth the
great historical events Of missionary
effort In an instructive and inspiring
way.
1t will be probably the greatest spec
tacular presentation Cincinnati has
ever seen. In four of the five episodes,
from $50 to 200 people will be on the
platform. More than 1900 persons,
volunteers, are being trained for the
Pageant. There will be 1900 in the
grand choir alone and another 1900
for the platform are to serve in relays
on different days. More than 1000
children will take part also. The cos.
tunes and splendid scenery used at
the first presentation of the Pageant
In London, England, have been brought
to Cincinnati for its production.
The five scenes which constitute the
Pageant may be briefly summarized as
follows
Episode 1.-The North.
The scene represents an Indian
camp in the far Northwest. The chief
and his wife are in distress at the loss
of their little daughter, who strayed
from the line OF march three days ago.
To the camp comes band of Eskimos
for trading purposes. The medicine.

Just as they are about to do so a mis-.
sionary enters. He brings the chiefs

ing in the woods. Thus he gains the
chiefs good will and hearing for his
message.
Episode 1.-THE South.
The scene is in the outskirts OF Ujijl,
where Livingstone is resting for
while after long journeylngs. His
men are building q mission house.
During midday rest Livingstone is full
OF thoughts of home. A runner comes
painting in with news of the coming
OF white man. Then Stanley enters.
He begs Livingstone to return with
him. Livingstones men hang upon
his words. He is sorely tempted, but
mo. he can not go until his work is
done.

4 MILLION APPLES
TO BE ON DISPLAY

Spokane, Wash Nov. l.-(SpeciaD
-Four million apples on display is
the estimate made by officers of the
fifth National Apple show, which will
open at Spokane for one week COM
mencing November IL.
In previous shows the record num-
her OF apples exhibited was 1000, 900.
The splendid yield of Pacific North
west orchards is thought to be largely
responsible for the increased interest
in the apple show.
While the extent of the show will
be large, the keynote of the event this
year Ia education. A series of daily
conferences will be participated In
each day of the week by growers
railroad officials. bankers and all In

problems of the industry.

the board of trustees, "are the distri'

Bowels Get Weak
AS Age Advances
The FIRST Necessity Is to Keep the
Bowels Gently Open With n
Mild IaXatiVe-TOnic


Healthy old age is so absolutely
dependent upon the condition of the
bowels that great care should be ta-
ken to see that they act regularly
The fact Is that as age advances the
stomach muscles become weak and
inactive and the liver does not store
up the juices that are necessary TO
prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eat
ing easily digested foods and by plen-
ty Of exercise. but this latter Is irk-
some to most elderly people. one
thing is certain that state Of con-
stipation should always be avoided
as it is dangerous to life and health.
The best plan is to take "A mild lax
atlve as often as it is deemed neces-
sary. But with equal certainty it is
suggested that cathartics, purgatives,
physics, sails and pills be avoided, as
they do but temporary good and are
so harsh as to be a shock to a deli
/ cate system.
A much better plan. and one thai
thousands of elderly people are fol-
lowing, is to take a gentle laxative
tonic like DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pep
sin. which acts as nearly like nature
as is possible. In fact the tendency
of this remedy is to strengthen the
stomach and novel muscles and Sc
train them to act naturally again
when medicines of all kinds can usu
ally be dispensed with. This Is th'
opinion of many people of differen
ages. among them Mr.. William Del

of the officers of the anti-suffrage as

Usher or the author. Then when the
people responsible learned that this
.was Illegal, they had the papers rush
ed back and run through again, this
time with the name of the printing
office on them, but still without the
name OF the author. Presumably they
thought this was sufficient to satisfy
the demands of the law.
Those circulars are now in the
mails and the best evidence of all
that there is some trickery about this
matter is the printing of them first
