Where Red Hair is pisIiked.

In Cornwall. particularly the Lands
End district, il is not advisable to dul
n person "a red haired Dane" though
in most parts Of England. especially
inland, the expression would rs likely
as not provoke no comment at all or be
regarded as simply frivolous.
At 4 police court case heard in 1861
ut penzance town hall it came out IL
evidences that the defendant had called
the complainant "a red haired Dane.
and this led to IN assault. The strong
repugnance of Cornishmen to be dub
bed by this strange appellation is as
strong as ever.
The Celtic nations hated the Danes
and were always fighting them. And

PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA
At the Empire Theatre, North Adams
Thursday Evening


The Philadelphia orchestra will
give a concert at the Empire theatre
in North Adams Thursday evening,
Feb. -. The assisting artist will be
Mischa Gilman, the famous Russian
violinst.
There is little need Of an introduce
tion for Mischa Elman, who is un-
questionably one of the greatest of
all violinists now before the musical
world here and in Europe to a North
Adams audience, for since his appear
ance in recital there has been the
greatest demand that he shall be
heard again, but this time in Il con-
cert worthy of his artistic stature
This unique combination has been
reached in his coming and only APP
pearance in North Adams with an or
and what has given particu-
lar point to the concert is that the or
chestra is The Philadelphia Orches-
ira under Leopold Stokowsk.
Arrangements have been made
with the Berkshire Street Railroad
to run special car to Bennington
after the concert.

What So Precious
AS a Healthy Baby i?
Every Youngster Can Have Fine Di-
gestion if Given a Good Baby
Laxative

In spite of the greatest personal
care and the most intelligent attent-
ion to diet babies and children will
become constipated, and it is q fact
that constipation and Indigestion
have wrecked many young life. To
start with a good digestive apparatus
is to start life without handicap.
But, as we cannot all have perfect
working bowels, we must do the next
best thing and acquire them, or train
them to become healthy. This can
be done by the use of laxative-tonic
very highly recommended by great
many mothers. The remedy is called
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and has
been on the market for two genera
tions. 1t can be bought convenient
ly at any drug store for fifty cents or
one dollar bottle, and those who
are already convinced of its merits
buy the dollar size,
Its mldness makes it the ideal
medicine for children, and it is also
very pleasant to the taste. 1t is sure
in its effect, and genuinely harmless.
Very little of it is required and its
frequent use does not cause il to lose
its effect, as is the case with so many
other remedies.
Thousands can testify to its merit
in constipation, indigestion, bilious
ness, sick headaches, etc, among
them reliable people like Mrs. James
r. Rouse, of Marinette, Wis. Her
little son Howard was fifteen months
