EAT WHAT YOU WANT
WHEN YOU WANT 1T.

People who consistently deny
their appetite some particular dish
appealing especially to their palate,
because indulgence has always
meant subsequent suffering, will
think this strong statement. 1t
is a fact, however, that most peo-
pie can, without fear of distress
ing consequences, indulge the APP
petite within reason if the bowels
are active and regular.
Heavy dinners and late suppers
can be enjoyed with impunity if,
before retiring, one will take a
spoonful of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, a mild combination of
simple laxative herbs with pepsin
that druggists sell for fifty cents a
bottle. Gentle in action and posi-
tive in fleet, it regulates the bowels
in an easy, natural way, without
gripping or other discomfort, and is
the ideal family laxative. Get a
bottle of DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin from your druggist and keep it
in the house. Use it occasionally
and you will find you can eat al
most anything you like without
fear of consequences. A trial bot

portunities to extend themselves in
this show and they take full advan-
tage of each and everyone of the
thousand and one excruciatingly fun

apathetic and blase audience in a
constant roar of laughter.
AS Mary Warda Howard is a
wonder and when she appears with a
sprained ankle she looks so charm
ingly helpless that the entire house
envies Dudley. Ayres, who, plays the
part of the young but impecunious

feeling to go on the stage in a body

Dudley Ayes, however, appears quite
capable of taking care of the job
and the. less favored ones have tc
watch from affair.".
Mary. is not quite as badly injur-

| Headquarters Italian Army, May
| Correspondence of the Associa-
| ted Press)-There is a narrow pass on
the mountain front of the Craps
which has given the Italians a lot
| of trouble up to short time tgo. 1t
| is a rocky defile withc lifts rising
sheer a thousand feet on either side.
Through this narrow passage it was
necessary for the men to go every
day in handling supplies. But as
thep passed they were picked off one
| by one by an Austrian sharpshooter
in cavern near the top of the cliffs.
Here he had been lowered from the
enemy lines along one side of the
cliff, and here food was lowered and
the deadly fusilade kept up day after
day.
| 1t was recently observed, however,
that a strage change came over the
operations from the cliff. The shots
rang out as usual whenever an Ital-
ian soldier went through the pass
But singularly, no man ever refl; the
shots always went wide of the mark;
the cunning of the sharpshooter ap-
peared to be at an end. This was
continued for days, with the Italians
going back and forth safely, and the
aimless and idle shots ringing out
from the enemy post in the cliff.
The Italians finally made a dash
to clear out the place, their batteries
pouring shots into the cavern while
a scaling party entered it from one
side. In the lead of the climbing
party was Lieut.. Guglielminetti, and
as he rushed into the cave a singular
sight was before him. Stretched on
the ground was an Austrian soldier
in the gray-green uniform of Aus
tria, the wounded man raised him
self on his elbow, drew tiny italian
flag from under his coat, and in a
faint voice exclaimed: give T Italia -
The dying man had only time to
whisper his story. He was Giorgio
Avanzini, nephew of the socialist de-
putty Avanzini representing the. city
of Trent in the Austrian parliament
Like all people of Trent and Tren-
tino, he was an italian by instinct
through forced by the political sit
uation of Trent under Austria to en-

The club women of America are
coming to our city in throngs They
are not merely coming as delegates

They realize that there is something

literature and letters There is a
practical field of work opened up
which must be cultivated before arts
and sciences are worth while.

Brough Some humorous situations
are created by politics. Many absurd
ones are also created.
II is said of Governor Brough that
he runs about and talks too much.
That would be a grievous charge TO
make against the average governor we
have had, and very grievous charge
against his opponent should he ever

has been for the development of Ar
