NESS.
BY MAY IRWIN.

In my professionally 1t, II you
please, by IT'S more commonplace
term. the show business there are
more contributing causes than in any
other walk of life to make a woman
unhappy In the first place she is
away from her home for the greater
part of her time.
Although she is constantly chang
ing her surroundings she finds no
pleasure In the variety. Annoyances
become exaggerated daily. The bad
hotels. the early train hours, the
ever-changing climate. all the petty
miseries of travelling grow worse as
the season advances.
You seem to lose interest In life and
when you do you are In bad way.
The Woman In Blue.
One lovely woman I know In this
business had made a matrimonial
mistake and her unhappiness was
killing her. On the trains she merely
gazed through the windows and cried
her eyes out. When she got to her
hotel she went to her room and never
emerged except to go to the theater.
and at the theater she made everyone
else uncomfortable, for we felt sorry
for her, as she sat alone in her dress-
! ing-room. refusing to take part in the
I general Eatety Of the other members
/ of the company as we assembled ON
1 the stage.
| Finally one night she showed me
! two pictures clipped from the mag
aziue section of a well known Sunday
/ newspaper. They were pictures OF
two girls whom wa both knew
why. it's Just like getting a letter
from them" said my friend
"Of course II Is. dear" I replied
Lets watch this paper next Sunday
and see If we don't get some more
/ letters"
! Believe me when 7 tell you that
within three weeks my melancholy
( friend had developed the fad Of
watching all the Sunday newspapers
and magazines and all the other

FROM THE VIEWPOINT
OF THE PRESS AGENT
Political Rivals Locked In Same Cen.

There are political meetings that
produce uproarious laughter; there
are the two idols of the people that
have been delineated In the most
humorous way imaginable: there are
fights Of the Kind that convulses one.
Levi Is the idol of the Irish league
and McGinnis OF the Jewish. Through
previous trouble both men dislike each
other as loafers should.
Their wives play an important part
In their running for office--another
feature of modern political life, they
are the ones who encourage the
trouble. after nomination for office,
McGinuis challenges his rival to
fight in the boxing ring, realizing
that there Is going to be serious
trouble, the seconds examine the
fighters gloves before the fight COM
mences. In Lewis they find a horse
shoe, In McGinnis' a brick. Without a
doubt it is one of the best side
splitting ring fights that has ever APP
peared on a screen.

A DAUGHTER OF TIE ARMADA stephen Chalmers


, when the real man shone out in Bor-
deaux. In the privacy of his room at
the Sign of the Thistle he was a grave
person with now and then an air Of
despondency or anxiety. His room was
Uttered with books and fine clothes
When / was privileged to visit him
there he would receive me with quiet
courtesy and offer me his Hospitality
with the manners of q modest prince.
These visits were source of much

of such books as he had loaned me to

show me a deeper view of a thing.
Sometimes he would laugh at a moment

Then he would quickly crave my par

In these days Bordeaux became q

Bowels Get Weak
AS Age Advances
The First Necessity is to
Keep the Bowels Gently
Open With a Mild
Laxative Tonic

Healthy old age Is so absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition of the
bowels that great care should be
taken 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
plenty of exercise. but this latter is
irksome to most elderly people. One
thing is certain, that a state of con-
stipation should always be avoided
as IL Is dangerous to life and health.
The best plan Is to take a mild laxa-
tive as often AS is deemed necessary.
