DRINK A GLASS
 OF REAL HOT WATER
 BEFORE BREAKFAST.
Says we will both look and feel clean, sweet and fresh
 and avoid Illness.

Sanitary science has of late made rapid strides with results that are of untold blessing to humanity. The lat est application of it's untiring research is the recommendation that it is as necessary to attend to internal sanlta- ton of the drainage system of the hu- man body as it is to the drains of the house,
 Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise, splitting headache ,stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stonl- ach. can, instead, feel as fresh a daisy by opening the sluices of the sys- tem each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stag nant matter.
 Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning before breakfast, drink glass of real hot water with d teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver and bowels the pre- vious days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans ing. sweetening and purifying the en- tire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach The aC- ton of hot water and limestone phos- phate on an empty stomach is won 
 derfully invigOrating. It cleans out all the sour Concentrations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your break fast the phosphated hot water is quietly extracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs.
 The millions of people who are bothered with constipation, bilious spells. stomach trouble. rheumatic stiffness; others who have a sallaw skins, blood disorders and sickly com plexions are urged to get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make any one a pronounced crank on the sub ject of internal sanitation.

GREAT SHOW AT PALACE

Thursday, Friday and Saturday brings to the Palace another big photoplay and vaudeville program. The feature photoplay is the Para mount production, Happy Though Married" with the dainty Thomas H. Ince star, Enid Bennett. in the lead ing role.
 In this picture Miss Bennett plays the part of Milicent Lee, a young bride whose hitherto unfaltering faith in her husband is severely shaken by the cynical philosophy of a book. "How to Be Happy Though Married.' which she finds among his belongings together with a picture of a beautiful young woman. She later finds this same young woman in her own home and is baffled in all her attempts to secure an explanation because the stranger speaks sonly Spanish, a language quite unfamiliar to the suspectng bride.
 Her annoyance is Imaginable to the spectators who have watched the facts develop from the beginning. Her husband, Stanley Montjoy, and his brother Jim, formerly worked a mine in South America. Jim mar ries a Spanish girl who had warned them against selling their claim to her scheming uncle. It was the pic ture of this girl, who had been their benefactor, that Stanley had kept among his keepsakes.
 When Jim and his bride arrive unexpectedly, Stanley goes to meet them and in a series of misadven- lures becomes separated from Jim, He takes the Spanish girl to his home during a temporary absence of Milly and returns to the station to look for Jim. This is how Milly en- counters her supposed rival in her own home and some amusing situa- tions develop before the four all get together and the tangle is unraveled. Other photoplays include Mack Sennett comedy and Eddie Polo in a Cyclone Smith story. The vaude- vile bill is headed by vaudevlles cassiest dancers, The Constantine Dancers"

 ''Thank you so much I whispered back, relieved beyond measure at her way of taking things. II don't know yet what l shall have ;O do.'
 I'll get the bag ready. anyway, she said. And you'd better get that woman something revivng if she's got news like that. You shut the living room door and I'll fix up something right away and leave it just outside where you can get it without her knowing any one else is around

FAIR OPENS LABOR DAY,
Charter Oak Exhibits This Year to Be
 on Big Scale.

The big Connecticut fair, the twelfth annual of the Connecticut Fair association opens Labor Day, at Charter Oak Park. Although two weeks away indications point to a bigger proposition for the fair asso- citation to handle than ever before. Entries in practically every depart ment have far exceeded expectations and it is the present worry of the managers to find sufficient space to accommodate the exhibitors and con- cessionists. The swine departme which is a new feature this year, has drawn so many entries that a small army of carpenters will be called up- on to build pens enough to care for them. Likewise the cattle department is about sWamped for space and eX- tra accommodations provided last year will be taxed to their limit.
 One of the biggest features of the fair is the Grand Circuit meeting, and this year will see some of the finest racing ever staged on the historic track. Rivalry has been intense throughout the circuit and all the races have brought out an unusually large number of starters This prom ises to be the case here for the early closing events have drawn an eXcep- tional list of entries and the late events have filled with some of the fastest horses in the world as con- teStantS.
 It is probable that the midway will have to be enlarged for the demands for space on this busy thOroughfare are coming in so fast that Assistant Secretary Langdon of the association is at q loss to know where to put them all.

Back at old 45, Tuesday. Joanie Dear:
 I am writing from my old room at Mrs. Glenn's. I feel exactly like al elderly horse who has been turned out to graze in his old, familiar back lot after a season of over r-strenuous racing. I am in my blue kimona halr down back, bath slippers flip p-happing. And as you dress, so your mood is.
 Tomorrow I shall be rested Next day I shall have my things home from the laundry. Friday my frocks and frills will all be freshened. Sat urday 1 shall be repacked and ready for new start. Today l am med itating, putting myself to rights, and taking stock.
 Don't think I got away from Lively Beach with perfect ease and simplicity Jimmie Ross refused to be shaken off by my mere announce ment that l was tired of the hotel and was going back to town for rest and general repairs.
 But what about me-" he urged in that helpless devoted way the man you don't want to marry always has Don't I come into the picture?'
 "You've been mighty good to me, Jimmie" I answered, feeling how stupid it sounded, but not knoT'1g anything better to offer.'
 "Prove your gratitude. We can motor to town, have tea at mN mothers, get the license at the Municipal Building on the way up, and be married before o'clock. It's perfectly smple.'
 Ut WOULD be perfectly simple, not to say idiotic. 'I1istcn, Jimmie - saw I had really hurt him. You are the dearest kid"
 "Oh. cut it, Dorothy. Don't dear kid' me. Come, how old are you?"

 "Real," said Jim I'm trying to sign you up for Iifc.'
 "Twenty-six, Jimmie-going on tventy-scven," I whispered, looking him strai in his nice blue eye.
 Joan, I could see him vince. oh, ever so little, but the vince was there, nevertheless,
 And how old are you, Mir James F. Ross?" I questioned.
 ''TWenty -nine-for marriage license purposes" he answered braveIy.
