Every bottle ofDr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin has the formula

WALTE HAMPDEN HAS HAD ROMANTIC 4
CAREER AND REMARKABLE SUCCESS

Henry Irving. In the midst Of the
run Irving became i'll and although
Mr.. Hampden was then very young,
he was entrusted with the part.
Although he himself disclaims any
achievement in. the role, SO great an
authority as William Archer, dean Of
English critics, declared he was "the
best Hamlet since Forbes Robertson
appeared" Mr.. Hampden stayed in
London several seasons more in the
Hall Caine plays and then returned
to make his debut here. He was
Nazimova's leading man in "A Dolls
House" and "'The Master Builder
All this time he had been waiting
an opportunity to produce Charles
Ram Kennedy's well known play, "The
Servant in the House." and through
Henry Miller, he was at last able to
do this, creating the stellar role Of
Manson. E
Some years lapsed between that
time and his sensational debut as
Hamlet which brought him lasting
fame, for he not only established d
modern worlds record with a run Of
48 straight performances on Broad
way, but also was accorded by the
critics such enconiums as "The Great
est Living Hamlet" The best Since
Booth" and similar comment. And all
recognized one northworthy fact
that the new star made Shakespeare
entertaining. He brought the oft-mur-
dered poet back to life.

Several Easements in the downtown

A movement is on foot to change
the National Parks Highway (Red
Trail) in Montana, according to infor-

Good Roads Association here.
The proposed change is to route
from Glendive through Lewiston and
Helena in place of Miles City and Bill

that it would be benefit to. North

tourists from leaving the Red Trail at
Fallon and going through South Da-

The Yellowstone trail and the Red
Trail converge at Fallon, Montana.
The Red Trail is marked both through
Miles City and Billings and through
Lewiston and Helena. The Helena
boosters would give Miles City and

the Red Trail route be through Lew

is shorter than the southern Montana
route.

Friday night, May Goth, with a repu-

three years, Of standing definitely
and incontestably at the head of all
living American tragedians," to quote
the veteran critic of the New York
Post.
Mr.. Hampden/ is an American and
Harvard graduate of the class OF
1900. The call of the concert stage
lured him first and he went to Paris
to study music Even at that time his
historic ability was so marked that ne

ers but he held to his original sche-
dulc of waiting until he went to Eng
land, where he was made member of
the famous company formed by Frank
Benson, since knighted. With the or

An offer by Henry Tatley to donate
about four and one-half acres Of land

named many buildings in the city in
which it said the law was violated
which provided doors must swing out

wide with proper landings and stair
ways of at least equal width. The re-
port was made by the Scouts in their
merit badge work in the following
test: "Name the most serious viola
tion of public safety principles which
has come under his observation and
produce satisfactory evidence that he
has done all within his power to cor
rect the same.'
The matter was referred to the

Commissioner Thompson that he
alone had jurisdiction in such mat
ters.

BANK SHOWS
LARGE GAINS
Deposits and Resources Have
Doubled Since Its "Conver-
si0n' Four Months Ago

l. Cleveland, O., May 23.-Officers OF
the Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engi-
!neers Cooperative National Bank Of
this city, which owns majority of
the stock Of the Peoples Cooperative
State Bank Of Hammond, Indiana,
announce. that the deposits and re-
soukces of the Hammond bank have
doubled in amount since it's conver-
sion into d cooperative institution four
months ago. '@
Banks Throughout the country
have been interested in the develop
ment Of this bank, since it is the first
cooperative bank in the United
States to be organized under a state
|charter. Instead OF, instituting an ad-
lditional bank, representatives of the
Railway Brotherhoods and trades
unionists Of Hammond bought up a
majority of the stock of a bank al
ready chartered under state laws, in
creased the capital to $4,000 with
$4,000 surplus, and changed the by
laws Of the bank. so that it's earning
would be shared with depositors.
The report just released by the par
ent bank in Cleveland shows deposits
Of S24l ,393:24 on. Feb. Is, an increase
of over 100 percent over deposits on
Oct. z last, when the cooperators ac-
quired ownership of the bank. Re-
sources similarly increased during
the same period from $l63,153.4S to
$300,383.99. Officers of the bank at
tribute this remarkable growth large
ly to the cooperative principle, and
to the fact that the Peoples Cooper
ative tSate Bank is paying higher in
terest rate to depositors than the
non-cooperative banks of the city.
