Miss Hayes lived the part last night. It was as though the audience really looked through a window into the secrets of Maggle’s home and thoughts. Selene Johnson as the Countess de Briere, was excellently cast. Her zht, French humor and keen per- ception was strongly contrasted to the_quiet, but determined character of Maggie. Tumsden Hare, part of the ancient and creaking Mr. Venables, a_member of the Ministr: and incidentally who staged the play, brought many a laugh into the story. Edward H. Loeffler, Eugene Weber and John Robb, as the three bachelor brothers of Maggie, self-made, but uneducated, were also fine. Others in the cast who were well fitted to their roles were Gwyn Stratford as Lady Sybil Lazenby, Dora Micawber, Alfred Pinner, A. O. Huhan, John Taylor and George A.

The Secret of Keeping a Perspiring Body Sweet Do you know why thousands of people who never have to take a laxative, do eat a candy cascaret now and then? They have found that cascara sweetens the whole system—brin an immaculacy of person that means everything. It prevents bodily chem- istry from ever making one uncon- sciously offensive to others. And what a perfect regulator of the bowels! Salts affect the lining of the bowels. Mineral oils leave a coating that the blood must carry off through the pores. How much better to cas- carize the system, and cause the bowels to expel everything by nor- mal muscular contraction! To say nothing of the cleaner, sweeter con- dition that lasts for days—a whol some condition that makes the use of deodorants quite unnecessary in January or July! Men and women whose years have brought on slug- gishness often find that a cascaret only once a week is all the tonic they needed. Cascara is splendid for children, too, and they love the taste of this candy laxative which every drug- store has for 10c and 25c.
