WOMAN BLAMED BY HER FAMILY

Restless, irritable, nervous, excit-
able and exacting Is the charge
against her by those nearest and dear
est. How little they realize the strug-
gle the overworked wife and mother is
making to keep about and perform the
hundred and one duties that devolve
upon her! Every hour her headaches
backaches and pains drag her down
until she can stand 1t no longer. Lydia

dition to health and happiness than

ters we are continually publishing in
this paper from women who have
found health by its use prove It.

Vatican Denies Pope
Frowns on Passion Play
Says Poniiff Has Expressed No
Criticism ON Conduct of
Rayurian Spectacle

ROME, Aug. "a tBy The Associated
Press). Reports that Pope Plus had
expressed displeaaure over the manner
in which the Passion Play at Oberam-
mergau was being conducted brought
forth "a statement to-day from Vatican
circles that His Holiness had had no
occasion to signify his approval or dis
approval of the Bavarian production.
1t was stated that nc report of the
present performances had been made
TO the Holy See by Monsignor PaceIli,
Papal Nuncio at Munich.
IT was recalled by Vatican officials
that about a month ago company was
formed in Italy which desired to or
ganize here some kind of Passion Play
similar TO that at 0berammergau. The
company notified the Holy See of its
intention, submitted its plan and asked
the Pontiff's approval of the project.
The Holy Sec answered that the
Church had never given its approval of
such enterprises, adding that so far
as the Oberammergau production was
concerned the Holy See had "never
disapproyed it,"

Asks '.Real" Inquiry
Indeed, | think at this time you
should direct your Commissioner Of Ac-
counts to institute real investiga-
tion into the collection of these moneys,
80 that he may determine the channels
in which they have gone. # they were
legally collected they were the property
of the City of New York. If they were
illegally collected they should be re-
turned to the poor peddlers from whom
they were exacted.
In any event it is the manifest duty
OF the Corporation Counsel to recover
them by civil process, and it is the
duty of the Commissioner of Accounts
to inform him where they may be
found. | think the attention of both
these officers should be called to Sec
tion 1851 of the city charter. Very
truly yours. JOHN E. RUSTON.'

about supervisors getting great sums
of money out of their collections from
peddlers is, in my belief, false.
Remember there are six or more
months in the year when street ped
dlers are few The high tide of col

July and August. The rest of the year

for the whole year. Mind | am not

1t was rumored up and down Broad
way yesterday that William Faversham
was to marry Miss Helen Taube, his
leading woman in a vaudeville skit now
playing at the Palace Theater. The
report, however, was promptly denied
by the two parties it concerned.
Said Miss Taube: "Favvy will be
very angry when you tell him about
this report and will deny it just as
have. And with a laugh) I may lose

Said Mr.. Faversham: For months

dearest woman in the world. | am

two great boys. I am not going to be
married to anybody else"
Mrs. Faversham, who was widely
known on the stage as Julie Opp, died
as year and half ago.

REPORTS RECEIVED
 OF AUTO MISHAPS
Narrow Escapes Again Told to the Policc-Complaints of
 Fireworks

Slight automobile accidents and near accidents did not stop with Sun day, when so many of them were re- ported to the police in this city. Yes terday few more instances wherein persons narrowly escaped injury were reported.
 Edward kilbourne of 1900. Stanley street, reported that his automobile had struck a boy by the name of Dominick Permise of 3S4 Arch street on East Main street. The boy ran in down, but was not badly hurt.
 Thomas O'Connor told the police that collision between his automo- bile and a truck belonging to the Gordon Bros. had been narrowly averted last evening at the corner of Rockwell avenue and Franklin Square By quick work at the wheel, Mr. O'Connor turned his auto in the same direction with the truck and avoided being hit. The truck he said, was going at an excessive rate of speed and he thought that MT. Gordon should be notified.
 The police also received a complaint from Cherry street that number of boys were chopping down a cherry tree there Also that many fireworks have been discharged there at all times of the day and night. The motorcycle and patrol policemen were ordered to put stop to the celebra- tion.
