Gaby Deslys.

Londonderry Deslys, the clever
little French dancer who played havoc
with the heart of young King Manuel
of Portugal, has succeeded admir-
ably in startling England with her
new dance at the Palace theatre and
getting the British censor in hot wa
ter. She appeared at the Palace the
atre in a sketch which some of the
etc, and the Lord Chamberlain was
called upon to stop the performance
at once and was severely taken to
task for licensing the show.
The Lord Chamberlains office ex-
planned that while the Deslys sketch
had been submitted and passed, 1t
could not be held responsible for the
dance, which Gaby had interpolated.
The scenario submitted to the cen
sorship merely referred to "a dance"
The exact character of the dance
could not be judged by seeing 1t
done, and the Lord Chamberiaihs Of
flee intimated that a qualified official

Meanwhile, however, in Difference
to the outcry made in the press, the
manager of the theatre had induced
Gaby to omit from the sketch the
particular feature which had aroused
the indignation of the critics and
when the Lord Chamberlain repre-
sentative appeared at the theatre his
sensibilities remained unshocked.

England which for eccentricity 1t
would be hard to beat, even in Canada.
Cornwall boasts of a village called
Drunkards All and Of tithing called

other Cornish village - Grumbia -

Alcohol In Pe-ru-na--
An Unjust Criticism

less than an ounce of alcohol before

Yes"
But you objected TO your mothers

you were. AS | understand it, the

Surprising it to be twenty per cent
alcohol, there would Ne in each dose
one-tifth of a tablespoonful of alcohol,
which would be about half a teaspoon

four teaspoonfuls of alcohol in your
bottle of beer. And yet you objectad

Well" | replied, you have been
doing exactly what the average man
and woman is doing. You have al
lowed your mind TO become prejudiced
against Peruna on account of its con-
tanning alcohol. Without stopping to
look iato the matter at all you have
assumed that there is something terri
bly, disreputable about remedies con-
tanning alcohol. The fact is, however.
that most ali fluid medicines, wheth-
er prescribed by a doctor or put up
as a patent medicine. contain a GER
tain amount OF alcohol. Ii was alco-
hol that cured your mother. 1t was
alcohol that cured you. In my opin.
ionS alcohol in some form or other
is making more cures than all other
drugs combined. This is not saying,
however, that Peruna contains only
alcohol, for 1t does contain excellent
remedies besides alcohol. But / do
