headaches and indigestion.

had a good chance to try Postum. for
they drank it altogether in place of
coffee. After using Postum two weeks

TalIeyrand'S Victory.

One hundred years ago the congress
OF Vienna met for formal organization.
Nearly all the monarchs OF Europe
were assembled to take part In the
deliberations, or were represented by
their most eminent statesmen. The
Porte alone was not represented IN
this great congress OF the nations II
is said that the four great allied pow
ers-England, Austria, Prussia and
Russia-had made a secret agreement
to exclude France from participation
in any OF their territorial arrange
ments. But in vain they reckoned
without Talleyrand, the great French
statesman and diplomatist. who not
only insisted that his country be ad-
mitted TO take part in all the deibera-
tons, but himself became the leading
spirit OF the whole congress.

REAL SHOW IN PASCO
Musical Comedy September Morn
at The Cord Tuesday, Dec. %

The long looked for and well
come musical comedy brand
new, up-to-date, musical tumble
Of songs and girls, comes to the
Cord Theatre in Pasco, Tuesday
Dec. 20.
September Morn" of course
gets its title from the painting
of the same name which stirred
up comment from coast to coast.
The story has to do with the
aspirations of one, Rudolph Plas-
trio, owner of an art studio, who
claims to have been the painter.
Of course Rudolph does not even
know how to paint a picket
fence. The model of "SEP-
TENDER MORN" is laid claim
to by an actress who has in
structed her press agent to cir
culate the rumor that she is the
original. The ludricous moments
when the two impersonators are
lodging each other and when a
chesty old army officer, who has
fallen in love with the actress,
discovers that she is a good
friend of his wife's, creates
enough laughter and plot for six
musical plays. The scenery is
prettily designed and painted
and the costuming introduces
the latest Partisan creations.
The company numbers within
its ensemble some fifty people.
The dancing numbers are many,
spirited, charming, highly enjoy
able and welcome, the world pop
ular Tango being introduced in
various attractive forms.
Dainty Grace Shilders is seer
in the newest dances now in
vogue; the popular Russell Prive
and Julian Rubell also have i'm
portant parts. Arthur Gillespie
wrote the book and lyrics; Au-
brey Stauffer composed the mu-
sic and Frank Tannehill, Jr.,
staged the production, which
comes almost direct from the
LaSalle Opera House, Chicago.
