 Just because you are feeling the illeffects of a torpid liver is no excuse for buying a harmful medicine that has brought phys lcal decay to thousands. Calomel IS dangerous and as everyone knows has very disagreeable and weakening after effects. Medi- cal science has found a natural, vegetable remedy, GRIGSBY'S LN-VER-LA that thoroughly cleanses the liver and bowels without causing any bad feeling. Children can take it with perfect safety.

The coronation is fol. lowed by grand march, led by the Yelled Prophet and his uuaen. his retlnue and their ladies immediately following.

in the United States-as a lever with which to draw visitors from all parts of this continent and from Europe the Yelled Prophet organization seems content to limit it's publicity efforts to an advance description of the pageant and ball and a hanger in colors Be it said to the credit of the Yelled Prophet organization that so far as the publicity goes it is be- yond criticism.
 The hanger shows a portrait of His Mysterious Majesty displaying a scroll containing mysterious hiero- glynhics and. alongside, in English, the simple announcement: "The Yelled Prophet will appear, St Louis Oct. 6, 1914.' The advance descrip. tive matter invariably is of great lit erary merit: Virtually every line the newspapers eagerly print, but there the publicity ends, unless some out side organization chooses to volun- teer supplementary effort.
 It's Just for Fun.
 The absence of the spirit of com mercialism, except in a secondary sense, convinces the writer that the Yelled Prophet pageant is first of all a huge frolic-a generous effort tc promote goodfellowship This theory is consistent with an official an, nOuncement issued several years ago by Yelled Prophet courier who re fnCad oh tolN- +A ;, gle name and even succeeded in keep ing his own name out of print. His announcement was as follows:
 Nobody except the members is al lowed to contribute to the fund. Every member is pledged not to reveal his or any fellow members connection with the pageant. The organization Is a close corporation. Followers Of the Yelled Prophet seldom resign The membership is limited and usual l., descends from father to son. Candi- dates are passed upon with great care by 8 secret committee and the impor- tant qualifications are personal qual- " and business or professional standing Many of the members are men of moderate means. The night of the pageant each member, as he is assigned to duty, loses his personality and becomes e number As such he remains until the ceremonies are over, his name not once being spoken. Much attention is given to the prepa- ration of the invitation list for the ball. Each member submits the names of limited number of friends. No social set dictates to whom invita- tions shall be issued, and hence the guests are representative of the city in the best sense."
 Fun Began In 1878.
 St. Louis was the third city in the United States to adopt the style of carnival which burlesques toe mon archial plan of government. Lcng be- fore the war of the states, perhaps 70 years ago. Mobile originated an an nual fete of this character. New Or leans followed suit, and in 1878 the idea spread to St. Louis That year the Yelled Prophet made his debut Each year since then he has been the central figure of the citys greatest street parade and most gorgeous ball.
 The crowning of the queen is the pageant's brilliant climax The queen invariably is one of the young society
The Prescott daily news., 1914-10-06

The announcement that the Yelled Prophet will spend between $40,00G and $50000 OH a pageant through St. Louis streets the night of Tuesday Oct 6, and ball later the same night at the Coliseum in that city, jn an et- fort to end the European war by re- minding the orld of the blessings of peace, has intensified the nationwide interest in the question of who this mysterious ruler really is and who are his equally mysterious subjects. :"
 This will be the Yelled Prophets thirty-seventh annual appearance at St. Louis, the only city in which he ever has shown himself Through all those years the curious have sought to establish his identity. but every such effort has been unsuccessful. Who he is none of the most alert newspapers of that important city the fourth, in point of population, in the United States-ever has been able to find out.
 Rumors by the thousand concern ing the identity of the Yelled Prophet and his choice for queen circulate every year, but none ever can be veri- fled
 Why Is t Yelled Prophet?
 "Why is the Yelled Prophet" some usually implying the askers opinion that the Prophet has outlived his use fulness, if, indeed his existence ever was justified. But an oyerwhelming majority of the people of St. Louis appear to think otherwise, and so do hundreds of thousands outside of St Louis. Each year the Prophets mag nificent parade of electric floats is witnessed by cheering multitudes that throng every street through which 1t passes.
 A small-sized rebellion broke out in the realm of the Yelled Prophet sev- eral years ago, according to rumors which are believed we'll founded, but His Mysterious Majesty promptly squelched it, appearing in public that year in greater splendor than ever before. So far as can be learned, His Mysterious Majesty that year expert enced the only unpeaceful moment in his long reign In advocating peace he thus speaks from experience.
 What "Crowd" Runs It?
 Just what "set" of men, if any, con trols the Yelled Prophet organization is as much a mystery as the identity of the Prophet. The inquiring visitor may hear from one man that the Merchants Exchange crowd" runs the organization; from another that the Washington avenue merchants" are behind 1t; and from a third that it is a frolic of rich men and their sons. All of these informants may have spoken with the air of one hav- ing inside information to divulge when in reality each based his asser- tions on mere rumors.
 The writer has encountered ample evidence that the Yelled Prophet en- terprise is not primarily conner cial one. Were the pageant and ball essentially commercial. consider. able part of the great sum of money annually expended by the organiza- tion undoubtedly would be appropri- ated for publicity purposes. But in- stead of using this great electric pageant-the greatest held annually
