Mistletoe.

In ancient times garlands and bou-
quets of the mistletoe were hung in
taverns and doorways to ward off evil,
and by many worn as an amulet at
tracing good influences. This aver
sion doubtless sprang from a Christian
prejudice against plant deemed sa-
cred by the pagans, a legend of the
monks holding that the mistletoe bough
was cursed and never again permitted
to grow as an Independent growth,
since it had been the tree from which
was fashioned the cross of the cru
cifxion. In the West of England mis-.
t1etOe is not allowed to enter into
church decorations.

Palm Tree Has Long Life.

It requires about seven years to
grow palms to the size necessary for
good fan leaves and after that they
furnish an annual crop indefinitely,
the Chinese stating that the trees live
for hundreds of years, producing their
annual crop. An old tree will produce
leaves as large as five feet in length
with a breadth just above the lower

PARK

An insight into the progress of inc motlon picture industry in the last few years was given last night at inc Park theatre at the presentation of Lyman H. Howes' travelogues. The pictures of the Kaieteur Falls in the almost impenetrable section of British Guinea, will never be forgotten hv those who saw them last evening Tha sWirling waters, the seemingly fnnos- sible fording of the rivers by the ma tive boatmen made the audience hold it's breath in suspense. Mextco's float ing gardens, the scenes of the fornoar home of the ancient Astecs, the native
 dances and the native methods of gardening were presented
 Another interesting picture was the capturing of live animals whose homes are in the Rocky Mountains. The methods of lassoing and tteing these animals so as not to harm them was
 illustrated.
 The daredevil feats of the Ameri.
 can flyers were the most interestine ever shown in Bridgeport The loon. the-loop, the dives and the tail snir were shown, as well as a fall of 10. .0OC feet.
 l The animated cartoons raised z i round of applause and no one could ! resist the antics of the pictured char | acters.

Hot Water for
 Sick Headaches Tells why everyone should drink hot water with phosphate
 in 1t before breakfast.

Headache of any kind, Is caused by ntoxication-which means self poisoning. Liver and bowel poisons called toxins, sucked into the blood, through the lymph duets, excite the heart which pumps the blood So fast that it congests in the smaller arteries and veins of the head producing vio- lent, t,throbhing pain and distress, called headache. You become nervous. de- spondent, sick, feverish and miserable, your meals soul and almost nauseate you. Then you resort to acetantlide, aspirin or the bromides which tenn porarily relieve but do not rid the blood of these irritating toxins.
 A glass of hot water with & tea spoonful Of limestone phosphate in it. drank before breakfast for awhile will not only wash these poisons from your system and cure you of headache but will cleanse, purify and fresner the entire alimentary canal.
 Ask your pharmacist for & quarter pound of limestone phosphate. It is inexpensive, harmless as sugar.
 If you aren't feeling your best, ii tongue is coated or you wake up witt | bad taste, foul breath or have colds | indigestion, biliousness. constipation or sour, acid stomach, begin the phos phated hot water cure to rid you system of toxina and poisons.-Adv.

q Washington, Nov. 12.-The appeal of pr. solf, foreign secretary at Berlin for intervention by President Wilson to mitigate the fearful conditions of the arnisticH, which he says threaten starvation and ruin in Germany, had not reached Washington today in of f1cial form. The text of the form, as picked by wireless, was handed to the President
 Officials think Dr. Solf is needlessIy alarmed. They point ont that in spite of Germany's treatment of conquered peoples in it's vicinity has been made plain that the United States ar d the Allies have no intention of per hitting the German people to starve While every stipulation of the arm
 istice must be kept in force to pre- vent the possibility of treachery by
 the beaten enemy, it is declared such
 rolling stock and ships as may be necessary to provide food and other esentials would be put into Germany and on the seas.
 In view of the situation Germany, where outside aid may be necessary to i Pl SFClEe cidl%HN. IL IS HJCSStDlo that 1 the President may see fit to take uI l with the Allied governments the question of giving some kind of reas- surance as to the humane purposes of the associated powers.

Peter F. CTark's "Oh, Girl" company last season won a place for 1tsef III the foremost ranks of burlesque at fractions and this year he has fol- lowed. up that success by preparing an even better and more diversified entertainment for hurlesque lovers.

Ty~ . ior, Evea Lewis, Jessie Taylor, and Blanche Rose. This talented list Of players is supported by a chorus { which is not only supremely beautiful Out which is versed to a high degree of efficiency in every line of chorus { activity. The book has a real plot, comedy being the prevailing element J which affords the able comedians al- auOSJ COIlSIduI CppOHLuullIISS LO ckIluoO' Among the many Imaginable situations are several love scenes which never tfaA to prove a source of laughter. There are three scenes in each act and they provide g. high order of scenic atmosphere for the unfolding or the story.
