Peculiar Reason.

Frank P. Morse, dramatic press
agent, met Ralph A, Graves, the dra-
matte critic, in New York one morn
ing They went down to barber
shop.
Graves heard Morse talking TO the
barber, whose voice indicated that he
was at least eight feet tall and in the
best of health.
Now" said the barber, your hairs

have II shingled. and singed and then
treated with crude oil, ending up with
an electric massage and few other
jolts."
Morse, who has u suit of hair like a
cluster of copper wire, inquired as to
the cost.
One dollar and ninety cents" re
piled the barber.
Proceed said Morse. settling

When Graves got out of the chair
and took a look at Morse's barber he
rushed over to the victims chair.

And the Basis of Her Health and
Vigor Lies in fhe Careful Reg

II woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be a
picture of loyeliness, But beauty lies
deeper than that 1t lies in health, In
the majority of cases the basis OF
health, and the cause of sickness can
be traced to the action of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitude, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation, So many
things that women do habitually con
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully, they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough But
whatever the particular cause may be
II Is important that the condition
should be corrected
An ideal remedy for women, and one
especially suited to their delicate re

Vance, of 6ll S. Ray St, New Castle,
Pa. At times she had spells of indi-

would die Syrup Pepsin regulated her
stomach and bowels, and she attrib-
utes her excellent health today to this

Had to Be Careful.

An old man who had led a sinful life
was dying, and his wife sent for a
nearby preacher to pray with him.
The preacher spent some time pray

man said: What do you want me to
do, parson?"
"Renounce the devil! Renounce the
devil" replied the preacher.

Poor Charities.

There are charity societies, as all
tho world knows, that only give to the
poor quarter or half cent of every
dollar they take in, most of their sub
scriptions going for salaries to Off
GERS and investigators for expensive
rentals, etc.
Richard March, the charity expert
of Denver, Colo. was condemning
these charities. He said:
"A mans wife shouted up to him
the other day:
Don't you think this blue over
coat with the strapped-in back is too
new and fashionable, George, to give

porated Charities that's at the door,
