In It before breakfast.

Headache Of any kind, is caused by
auto Into ation--whi h means self

called toxins, sucked into the blood,
through the lymph ducts, excite the
heart which pumps the blood so fast
that it congests in the smaller ar
teries and veins Of the head produc-
ing violent, throbbing pain and dis
tress, called headache. You become
nervous, Respondent, sick, feverish
and miserable, your meals sour and
almost nauseate you. Then you re-
sort to acetanilide, aspirin or the bro
mides which temporarily relieve but
do not rid the blood of these: irritat-
ing toxins. y ss.s s'ss. s.zz =,
A glass of hot water with a 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 head
ache but will cleanse, purify and
freshen the entire alimentary canal.
Ask your pharmacist for quarter
pound Of limestone phosphate. It is
inexpensive, harmless as sugar, and
almost tasteless, except for a sourish
twinge which is not unpleasant.
If you aren't feeling your best, if

DREADFUL CONSEQUENCES

When the bowels are not acting,
freely, waste matter remaining
in them generates poisons-
which are rapidly absorbed by
the blood and cause serious
disease, such as biliousness, gas
tritis, skin diseases and many
others. Don't take the risk of
such dangerous illness. Hollis
ter's Rocky Mountain Tea once
a week will keep the bowels
active and clean, and safeguard
your health.

Rivalry Brings
Mutual Disaster

The first Of the four historic pc
riods was compassed by single sea-
son-that of 1888 SIN which riv-
airy between the Academy of Music
and the Metropolitan Opera House
brought disaster to both institutions.
Though the new house had been
built by vast wealth and had that
wealth's powerful backing, neither
the director of the new undertaking
nor its promoters had a wider out
look than the supporters of the old
Academy; they held to the aims and
pursued the methods Of their rivals,
relying on the external glamour Of
the new establishment and leaving
the interest of the public in operas
and performers to be divided. The
storm of misfortune which over
whelmed their representative, Henry
+. Abbey, threw their bark on a
new course, which was pursued only
because no haven Of refuge was open
to them. No pilot could be found
willing to attempt a second voyage
under Instructions which had led to
shipwreck. The owners Of the house
had to charter their own ship and
sail for ports foreign to their long
ings and undesirable in their eyes,
under the guidance Of a master who
sought cargo in the land of art in
stead Of the realms of fad and fash
ion. Thus was inaugurated the sec
end period, which endured from 1884
to 1891 and which wrought effects
the pursuance of which has grown
with years in spite of the fact that
opera house owners and operating
companies have time and again tried
to set back the clock to the hour
which it marked thirty-hve years
ago. The clocks gong rang disas-
ter after disaster through more than
the seven lean years in which Maui
rice Grau was assimilating the les
sons of his own past and learning
how to blend the system which he
had developed with the teachings of
the seven years of artistic plenty
under the German regime inaugu-
rated by DR.. Leopold Damrosch. At
the last he succeeding in fusing the
principles and practices, the matter
and manner, Of Italian, French and
German opera into polyglot insti-
tuition which satisfied the whims of
fashion and met the demands of art.
