Iowa Girl Making Good.

One of the interesting events Of
last week which occurred in our city
was the dramatic recital given by an
Iowa artist. It is with great pride
that we have had the pleasure of not
only hearing but having in our city a
young artist whom we feel justly
proud and one who is rapidly making
a name for herself in the field Of ora
tory and dramatic art in the person of
Miss Eta Luvenia Vaughn, former
student of the Emerson College of
Oratory, Boston, Mass, and the tai
ented and only daughter Of Mrs. A. j.
Vaughn of Des Moines, who is filling
number of concert engagements in
the larger cities throughout the mid
die west. This talented and promis-
ing artist appeared in our city last
Wednesday evening in dramatic recit~
al, assisted by our local talent, at
Wayman A. M. E. church to very
appreciative audience, and after hear
ing an artistically arranged program,
which was we'll delivered, she not only
scored decided triumph, but by her
charming and pleasing manner made
a very favorable impression upon the
exclusive people Of Rock Island, Ill.

HEALTH HINTS.
A. J. Booker, NJ. D.


Every person knows that they have
heart. 1t is most wonderful or
gan and has the smallest possible
time to rest. in it's continuous actlv-
ity from the beginning of life-even
before birth-until the very end. 1t
is most susceptible organ and is
influenced by nearly all our activities
and emotions. If we run or if we
weep; if we are angry or If we are
in love the effect is registered in some
change in the hearts activity. There
is almost no disease process which
does not temporarily affect this or
gan; some of them seriously effect
it's efficiency.
Since we are inclined to attribute
trouble to the factors Of which we
know most, it is not surprising that
people are apt to think that the heart
is out of order oftener than it is. AS
general thing the people who have
heart trouble are the ones who speak
least about it. It is usually folks
who want to create sympathy who
have the weak hearts. Most folks
want to be assured that they will
live out the allotted number of days
and very few of them will 60 about
with a smile on their faces telling
their friends that they have an in
durable malady, meaning in other
words that have the death warrant
already signed.
There is a large class Of men who,
by some error or other, are allowed
to gain living by coming in contact
with people in a most trying time,
to cover up their ignorance of real
conditions lay every burden Of ILL
ness on the heart. 1t is an awful
fate to doom one to, but the trusting
nature of man makes him feel that
no one would tell him an awful thing
without indisputable evidence. But
with some classes of human vultures
the more terrible the name the great
err credit they expect to gain by pre-
tending to remedy the condition.
When your physician tells you that
your heart is affected it is a pretty
fair idea to have him consult with
some one else of your choice in order
that you not be deceived into lot
of worry and anguish which will un-
fit you for duty. Many people have
been tortured to death by men who
were either ignorant or INSCRIPTIONS.
Many of these weak hearts, in
people who do everything they want,
but spring the weak heart as an ex-
cuse to escape work, are the results
of a morbid idea to create sympathy
and awe. It is time to discard such
or get more genuine alibi.

Must Be Pale to Enlist Sympathy,
Says Mae Marsh.

An interesting point about make
up was brought out by Mae Marsh,
the Triangle star, when she was en-
gagged in making her present photo
play, sThe Wild Girl of the Sierras."
When she appeared for the filming
of the first scene, il which she is
supposed to be a girl who has reared
herself in the woods with none but
wild animals for her companions, Di-
rector Paul Powell suggested that
her makeup should be darker, as
her supposed life of exposure to the
elements would have bronzed her
skin.
81 thought of that" she said; ''but
then I felt that a dark makeup
would kill off the most sympathetic
note of the characteristic pity for
being so helpless and alone. With
the light makeup, her frailty is en-
phasized, and she appears in need of
mans help more than if she con-
veyed the impression of being able
to stand anything and of being able
to help herself at all times"
Powell agreed with her, as he al
ways does. But to afford good ex-
cuse for her paleness, he has her ac-
cidentally wounded by shotgun in
ne hands of the hero.
