What One Elk Eats.
For every guest there was big

out number. and clans beyond count,
Then there was clam chowder and
fifteen to twenty other things in the
way OF edibles. .
For entertaining, a dozen boys
from All Saints church, under the
direction OF Morley Young, provided
several exciting athletic events. and to
fill up the measure there were wrest-
ling bouts. boxing matches. and egg
thr owing contests.
In the egg throwing contest, Pat

While the festivities were at their
height two woman rushed past gate

caused a thrill until it was learned
that they were the Misses Barry Mil

hasty exit, followed by the women,
who paused long enough to oblige the
crowd with several songs.
One Of the features OF the frqlic
was the music furnished BY Dan Des-

Says Body is a
Poison Factory
Urges everyone to drink glass Of
hot water before
breakfast.

Just as coal, when il burns, leaves
behind a certain amount of incom-
bustible material in the form OF ashes,
so the food and drink taken day after
day leaves in the alimentary canal a
certain amount OF indigestible ma
terial. which II not completely elimi-
mated from the system each day, be-
comes food for the millions OF bac-
terra which infest the bowels. From
this mass of leftover waste, toxins
and ptomaine-like poisons are formed
and sucked into the blood.
Men and women who can't get
feeling right must begin to take in
side baths. Before eating breakfast
each morning drink a glass Of real
hot water with teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in il to wash out of
the thirty feet of bowels the previous
days accumulation of poisons and
toxins and TO keep the entire alimen-
tady canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick
headache, colds. biliousness, consti-
patton, others who wake up with bad
taste, foul breath, backache, rheu-
matte stiffness, or have sour, gassy
stomach after meals, are urged to
get quarter pound OF limestone
phosphate from the drug store, and
begin practicing internal sanitation.
This will cost very little. but is suffi-
Gent to make anyone an enthusiast
on the subject.
Remember inside bathing is more
important than outside bathing, be-
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, causing
poor health, while the bowel pores
do. Just as soap and hot water
cleanses, sweetens and frcshens the
skin, so hot water and limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. Advertisement

belonged. They were adj commercial
centers and were known as the Hanse-
attic league, or the Hansa towns. The
capital of the league was at Lubbock.
and the assemblies which met there
had sufficient power to coerce hostile
governments and to deal drastically
with the pirates that preyed upon the

N@ Much Was Said, but the Prince

There were great variety and charm
in the society of kissingen. writes
Princess Lazarovich in her account of
4 holiday on the continent. There
were people from the four corners OF
Europe. America and the orient. each
having a distinct personality that
brought vivid suggestions of his ori'
gin.
Prince Malkolm was the diplomatic
representative of Persia for all Eu-
rope, being accredited at the same
time to London, Petrograd and Rome.
His wife, a beautiful Armenian prin-
cess, a Christian, was one of my dear
ly priced friends in London. Prince
Malkolm told US one day of how he
came to be Persian diplomatic rep
resentative. He was relative OF the
shah, had been educated In several
countries in Europe and had become
interested in the Christian religion as
the root force Of western civilization.
Prince Malkolm told us how be stud
led and pondered long to hit upon
some means Of bringing Christian prin-
ciples to Persians in forms that they
would understand, making Christian
ity the fulfllment of old Mithraic and
Zoroastrian conceptions. Having form
ed a plan, he returned to Persia and
began to talk to his countrymen and
put before them the ideas that he be-
lieved world raise up the fallen ma
ton. The people everywhere listened
to him eagerly and followed him
about in throngs. Some Of them be-
gan TO proclaim him prophet and al
most WorshipeG his person. He tried
in every way to combat that tendency,
in which he saw the speedy and COM :
plete wreck Of his dearest hopes.
One day the shah sent for him and
said:
My cousin. YOU are much followed
about here You are eXerting yourself
too much. You need rest. Would you
like to go as my ambassador to Eu-
rope-and stay there many years|
Then Prince Malkolm added:
II knew what he meant. So with
my heart falling like stone l answer
ed, Yes, your majesty. 1 accept On
that day I started on my journey
westward. And all these years l have
been virtually European.
But what did the shah really
mean? ?' | asked.
Prince Malkolm grinned, showing
his white teeth, and with queer CUR

Ruler of the Tiny Land.
Did you ever hear of the most o1s-
tinguished of the Grimaldi family, not
the Genoese general who remained at
home and fought for his own country
nor yet the artist who did heroic stunts
on canvas, nor the sixteenth century
Grimaldi who died by the hand of an
assassin in the palace at Monaco, ou1
the tenth century ancestor of that
prince who saved Monaco from the
Moors? His was an achievement
worthy Of a true soldier of fortune.
The tiny principality. perched on It's
seagirt cliff had been settled by the
Greeks even before Athens became the
greatest city Of the civilized world. 1t
was one of the cultural outposts OF
Rome and in the fifth century it was
an important center Of Christianity.
Then the Moors crossed the Mediter-
ranean. extended their sway over Spain
and seized the ancient Heculis Monoeci
Portus and gave over its churches and
monasteries to the infdels. For 2oO
wears they ,defed the soldiers Of Eu-
rope. and then Grimaldi came. There
had been many wars in Genoa. and
here was chance for a Genoese cap
tain.
When his military genius had driven
the Moors into the sea. he was re-
warded by being made absolute mon

were built by the English during the
Burmese wars.
At the top Of the stairs is broad
platform, from the center of which
rises the paya. This is of brick COW
cred with gold, studded in places with
Jewels, and it is surmounted by gild-

quantities Of gold and silver bells
which tinkle continually in the breeze.
The pile is about 80 feet in height.
