The “bat- | tler” is recognized as one of the best ; heavyweights and since he fought his recent draw with his namesake, the champion of the world, many pro- moters believe him to be superior. He is now training for! his coming fight with “Sam’™ Langford and the Keene) him to give an exhibition for the ben- | efits of the patrons of .the. popular playhouse. It will ‘be a three round bout and the pugilist will demonstrate the blows used in many of the cham- pionship battles. Besides this big attraction, the regular vaudeville bill which has®been giving satisfaction all week will be given in its entirety. 2 Heading the hill is the sensational gymnastic specialty of the Four Bards. This quartet is made up of the most spectacular tumblers who have per- formed heré in a long time. The Five Armstrongs do some clever work on bicycles and also introduce some ‘good comedy.. Marie d'Arville, a former prima donna in light operas, sings some popular and semi-classi- cal numbers; Mann and Connors, colored entertainers offer a good song and dance turn and Whalen, West and Whalen give satisfaction in a i comedy sketch. Short taffeta or broadcloth capes having silk waistcoats are among the most interesting of the new gar- ments. # SOBY’S CLASS IN MODERN DANCING Tango, One Step, Hesitation Waltz, etc. BOOTH'S HALL. | NEW BRITAIN. { Opens Wed, Evening, April 22, 1914, $1 for 3 Lessons.

The time has come when we must In- crease our organization and do na- tional work."” Miss Chittenden made a strong ap- peal for ‘‘the sinews of war.” “The suffragists have raised $40a a at said. well.” Suffrage “‘We ought to be abls te ée = was _ inextricably bound up. Miss Chittenden told the women, with ‘“‘those great evils, socialism, feminism and the economic indepen- dence of all women.” It meant the separation of the mother and child, the education of the child by the state. “And we anti-suffragists stand for the home-made child. I want every woman here to remember that our cause menna the stability of the home and to pledge herself never to say ‘Suffrage is comiing,’ for suffrage is not coming.” This is the largest “antis” ever had. the a luncheon Not only were thousand tickets sold. but many more ; might have been sold had not hotel management forbidden it.

The price || What is Woman’s Beauty But Health And the Basis of Her Health and Vigor Lies in the Careful Regu- lation of the Bowels. If woman's beauty depended upon ! cosmetics, every woman would be a picture of loveliness. But beauty lies deeper than that. It lies in health. In the majority of cases the basis of health, and the cause of sickness, can be traced to the action of the bowels. The headaches, the lassitude, the suilow skin and the lusterless eves are usually due to constipation. So many things that women do habitually conduce to this trouble. They do not eat carefully, they eat indigestible foods because the foods are served daimtily and they do not exercise enough, But whatever the particular cause may be it is important that the condition should be corrected. An ideal remedy for women, and ! one especially suited to their delicate réquirements, is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup | Pepsin, which thousands of women endorse highly, among them Mrs. C. | 8. Vance, of 511 S. Ray Bt., New| Castle, Pa. At times she had spells ! of indigestion so severe -that she thought she would die. Syrup Pepsin regulated her stomach and bowels, a1d she attributes her excellent health | today to this remedy. All the family can use Dr. Cald- well's Syrup Pepsin, for thousands of mothers give it to bables and chil- dren. It is also admirably suited to the requirements of elderly people, in face to all who by reason of age or irfirmity cannot stand harsh salts, cathartics, pills or purgatives. These MRS. C. 8, VANCE should always be avoided, for at best their effect is only for that day, while a genuine remedy like Syrup Pepsin ac¢ts mildly but permanently. It can be conveniently obtained lt any drug store at fifty cents or ome 4 dollar a bottle. Results are always guaranteed or money will be refund- ed. You will find it gentle in action, * pleasant in taste, and free from grip~ ing, and its tonic properties have a distinet value to women. It is the most widely used laxative-tonic im* America today and thousands of fam- flies are now never without it Families wishing to try a free sam- ple bottle can obtain it postpaid by addressing Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 419 Washington St., Monticello, 1. A postal card with your name and ads dress on it will do. A Hint To Saleswomen By RUTH CAMERON.
