R. 5267 Is the official Funeral of a
bill introduced in thu House Of Con-
gresham granting the con-
sent of Congress to the Wolf Creek
Lumber company to construct bridge
across Tug river" There is nothing
on the face of the brief bill to denote
that it is any different from hundreds
Of its kind which have passed over
the congressional wheel in the last de-
cade. But it is different, in this re-
spect. 1t is said that the bridge is
already up, open and in use.

His Bridal Night" by Margaret
Mayo and Lawrence Rising, with music
by Frederick V. Bowers, and with Mr..
Bowers himself in the stellar role, will
be the opening attraction at Turner
Theatre, Sunday, Oct. %.
Just imagine marrying one OF two
fascinating twins and then not knowing
which is your wife on your bridal night?
Can you imagine being claimed by both,
wanting one, and then not knowing
which one? That is the situation in
His Bridal Night" masterpiece of
naughty farce comedy, the kind of
which Margaret Mayo is past master,
Then imagine the outcome of the fun
making qualities of Frederick Bowers
when he takes his bridal trip with the
sister he did not marry. Add to that
fact that the two fascinating sisters
are the Warren Twins, charming dancers,
both singers and about the prettiest
pair OF twins on the American stage,
and what more delectable dilemma
could Sultan ask?
Proclaimed last season as the best
offering for lovers of laughs, lingerie
and the light fantastic, Ellis Bridal
Night" has been converted from farce
comedy into a musical comedy and,
since the music is by Mr.. Bowers, one
of the country's most successful COM
posers OF popular songs, lovers of tune

original production, Sue Talmadge, a.
coincidence with a prima donna voice.
Clarice Grey, Lucille Blythe, Maize.

MRS. MARGARATHE TAUER

Mrs. Margarathe Tauer died at the
home OF her son, George Tauer in this
city, last Tuesday afternoon, after an
illness of only few days. The prime
cause of her death was old age.
Mrs. Tauer, whose maiden name was
Margarathe Helget, was born in Ke:s
Pilsen, Austria, September Is, 1884.
She grew to womanhood at that place,
where she was married in 1862 to John
Tauer, six years later the family coming
to America, and settling in Brown
county. Mr.. Tauer died about ten
years ago, having passed away on Decem-
Der 8, 1907. Mr.. and Mrs. Tauer, on
reaching America, settled on a farm in
Cottonwood township. In 1901 they

WHEN YOU WAKE
UP DRINK GLASS
OF HOT WATER
Wash the poisons and toxins. from
system before putting more
food into stomach.
Says lnslde-bathing makes any
one look and feel clean,
sweet and refreshed.

Wash yourself on the inside before
breakfast like you do on the outside.
This is vastly more important because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri-
ties into the blood, causing illness,
while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach. nearly an
ounce Of waste material must be
carried out Of the body. If this waste
material is not eliminated day by day
it quickly ferments and generates
poisons, gases and toxins which are
absorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts which
should suck only nourishment to sus-
tain the body
A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day, a
glass of real hot water with tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it,
which is a harmless way to wash
these poisons, gases and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-s
plate costs but very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to make anyone
an enthusiast on inside-bathing. Men
and women who are accustomed to
wake up with dull, aching head or
have flrred tongue, bad taste, nasty
breath, sallow complexion, others who
have bilious attacks, acid stomach or
constipation are assured of pro-
nounced improvement in both health
and aDpearance shortly
