PLAYS OF ALL NATIONS.
Will Be Presented at Special Theatre
in New York.

New York, May 22.-Foreign born
Americans with love for the drama
of their native lands are to have a folk
theatre of their own, the project OF
Burton w. james, a local community
worker, who has directed Russian and
Italian as well as English productions
in New York.
The theatre, in which, It is said, "the
plays of all nations" will be given by
amateurs and professionals will be one
of the tiniest in the city. 1t will seat
only 200 persons but the plans contem-
plate that it shall be complete and
modern in every way. The site select
ed is on the upper east side.
Russians, Italians, Czecho-Slovakians
and many other former Europeans for
years have presented grand opera, COM
edy and tragedy written by masters
whose work has never been seen by
Broadway theatregoers. Mr.. James,
who is enthusiasts about his venture.
says that the primitive love for acting
Is very much alive in New York and
that the zest for selfexpression which
persists among these one-time immi-
grants even in small dingy public halls
with wretched stage accoutrements
will never die.
might after night, all over New
York. said Mr.. James, amateur ac-
tors of foreign nationalities entertain
crowds of their countrymen with bet
ter plays than Broadway usually sees.
Less than five per cent of them have
ever been inside a Broadway theatre.
When they do 60 to American shows
it is necessarily TO the cheapest kind.
The influence OF this is manifested in
the taste for art which their children
develop. But the parents never for

FIFTY YEARS AGO

it was the custom of our grandparents
when anything was the matter with
their stomach, liver or kidneys, to take
a remedy composed of the right KIND
of roots and herbs, and by so doing
lived to ripe old age. 1t is also true
that the Shakers, who have always de-
pended upon the life-giving juices OF
leaves, roots and herbs, are Icing lived
people. The roots and herbs m which
SEVEN BARKS is principally com
posed of were gathered by the Shakers
for many, many years, then scientifi-
cally blended, and SEVEN BARkS has
become famous as one of the most re-
liable remedies for Indigestion, Consti-
patton, Liver, Kidney and Stomach dis
orders.
Dull pains in the back, often under
the shoulder blades, poor digestion,
heartburns or futterings, sour risings,
yellow skin mean liver troubles, and
YOU should take SEVEN BARKS; it
will relieve you, as it will make the liv-
er active, tone up the digestive organs
and cause the bowels to act normally.
SEVEN BARKS is not cure-all,
but very reliable remedy that will at
once act on the liver, stomach and
bowels, sets them to right, tones and
strengthens the general health.
If you want to get the greatest effi-
Cheney out of your body, enjoy and pro-
long your life, take SEVEN Banks.

Keeping 1t Out Of the Paper.

The more friends a newspaper has
the more certain and inevitable will
be appeals to keep Il out of the pa
per-" and more surprising will be the
types of men who will ask that un-
grantable favor.
They will all do it-giyen the time,
the opportunity and the sufficiently
appealing motive. Apparently not one
of them even remotely realizes the
fact that the newspaper man who does
that sort of thing simply betrays his
readers and dishonors his profession.
Men whose personal code of honor is
high would scorn to do treacherous
or undetermined deed, win bring every
known pressure 20 bear on a newspa-
per organization to have something
suppressed that they allcge might in

cfon and bribery. but even those ex.

WOULD REGULATE
THE MEAT PRICES
"Big Five" Dominate the Live Stock
Industry Completely, Says Sena-
tor Kendrick.

Washington, D. c., May 22.-The
big five" meat packers dominate the
live stock industry so completely that
enactment of federal regulation legis-
lation is necessary, Senator Kendrick,
Democrat, Wyoming, author of bills
for that purpose, asserted yesterday
addressing the Senate.
''0ne by one the big stock markets
have passed into their power" he said,
until to-day they control not only the
IA principal markets, but IA others as
well, SO that their domination of the
industry is all but complete. During
the year 1916, more than 10 per cent
of all the stock handled in interstate
commerce passed through their yards. !"
The packers obtained their position,
he said, by .suspending economic law
and defying statute law"
Instead of large number of mar
kets in various parts of the country
competing naturally and normally with
one another, only few markets We're
allowed to develop" he continued. The
flow of livestock from the western
states to feed the consuming east was
forced through narrow funnel for the
benefit of those who constructed the
funnel.
yet il has been fully acknowledged
by the big packers that the smaller
packer operates more economically
than they do"
CAS- conditions stand to-day" he con-
tinued, "the thousands of producers and
millions of consumers who are so inter
ested in what goes on in livestock mar
kets are wholly without projections"
The court decree against the packers
represents great advance Senator
Kendrick said, but does not and can
not afford the relief needed"
