Tells Her Experie
To B
Mrs. Dunlap Sends a Letter
Addressed to the Readers
of the Paper
A sense of duty to others who might
suffer as she had impelled Mrs. R. C.
Dunlap, of Dekalb, Mo„ to send the
following: signed statement to the
St. Joseph. Mo.. News Press:
"The readers of the News-Press,
especially those suffering from Ball
stones. stomach trouble and appendi
citis. will find In Fruitola and Traxo
n permanent cure. After suffering for
Ihree years the most excruciating pain
from gallstones T found this wonderful
remedy and am now in perfect health
and have been for almost four years.
Never have any symptoms of the old
trouble. 1 had been told by three doc
tors thai nothing but an operation
would «a\e me. 1 know several who
hove undergone an operation but still
have gallstones. This medicine is an
oil which softens the stones and cures
the liver. It can be bought at any drug slore."
Fruitola is an intestinal lubricant that softens the congested masses, disin
tegrates the hardened particles that cause so much suffering, and expels
the accumulation to the patient's great relief. Traxo is a tonic-alterative
that acts on the liver and kidneys, stimulates the flow of gastric juices to
nld digestion, and removes bile from the general circulation.
Fruitola and Traxo are prepared in the Pinus laboratories at Monticello,
111., and arrangements have been made to supply them through representa
tive druggists. In Harrisburg theycan be obtained at Gorgas, the Drug
gist. 16 North Third street and P. R. R. Station.
FIRE ESCAPES TO
BE KEPT CLEAN
l)r. Jackson Says That They
Must Be Free From Snow
and Ice at All Times
Fire escapes are put on the same
plane as sidewalks and exits from
buildii.ps as far as being cleaned of
lee anci snow in winter time and being
kept clear of boxes or junk by Com
missioner of Labor and Industry John
Price Jackson in a statement issued
to-day.
Keporu from factory inspectors
have indicated trouble in getting peo
ple to realize the importance of keep
ins snow from lire escapes and the
commissioner says: "A fire escape
blocked by ice or snow or covered by
Jce is iis much a menace in time of
lire as a tire escape to which the exits
«iru Mocked or one that is obstructed
by boxes."
-AM inspectors will set notice to en
force cleaning of fire escapes. The
commissioner in reviewing the situa
tion M.J; s in his statement:
"A* this season of the year, fire
escipos are frequently rendered im
l>as.sa:>le by accumulations of snow
and ice! These means of exit in case
of fire are valuable only as long as
they ate ready for immediate use.
It is absolutely necessary that they be
kept clear at all times. After every
snowstorm all escapes should be im
mediately cleared and thus it will be
impossible for them to become slip
pery.
"In many cases, owing to leaky
spouts overhead, large accumulations
of ice are found which render these
escapes Impassable. The obvious
remedy for a condition of this kind is
the immediate repair of the spout in
question and the removal of the ac
cumulations of ice.
"A case which was recently brought
to the attention of the officials of the
department was in one of the large
cities of the State where a fire escape,
located on a school building, in which
there were three hundred pupils,
■was rendered almost impassable on
two stories by the large icicles which
formed on the gratings of the escape.
3f a fire had occurred in that particu
lar school and the fire escape had
been the only means of exit, there
would have been a great loss of life.
Fortunately the condition was noticed
and corrected before any fire oc
curred.
"The owners of all buildings should
carefully observe whether the fire
©scapes for which they are respon
sible arc in a safe condition and ore
free from obstructions. Tf a catas
trophe should ever occur and it
nhould he shown that the fire escapes
■were impassable, owing to a blockage
or any kind, the owner would be
liable to prosecution. Furthermore,
from a humanitarian standpoint these
means of exit should always be kept
ready for immediate use.
"The real efficient fire escape which
Ss not subject to conditions as out
lined above is one which has a cover
ing supported by an extension of the
vertical rods in the railings. A large
number of the theaters installing fire
escapes at this time tire now adopting
this type as it is onlv during excep
tionally heavy blizzards that such an
escape can be rendered unsafe for
use."

The daily papers In New York City I
seem to be greatly worried as to who |
is the wrtißsier using the press agent
stunt as "The Masked Marvel." Some [
papers said it was Francis X. Bushman, I
some said it was Joe naymond, a lot ol :
people have an idea that clever Ajax,
"the masked athlete." formerly in vau- |
deville, will fill the bill when his name
is called.
Donegal, from whose mountain val
leys comes the Drisli writer and lec- [
tui er, Seumas MacManus, !
Irish who is due to lecture al j
Fairies for Tec hnical Auditorium. I
Anx-riaa Tuesday evening, January !
11, is the land of the I
Fairies. Every rock and every bush!
there has its fairy story to tell. In I
Donegal, as in all the other mountain
ous districts of Ireland, the fairies are.;
still very real—though, alas, they are
gradually being pushed back farther I
into the hills, by the advance of so
called civilization.
When the first little narrow-gauge |
railway line was projecter Into the hills i
of Donegal from the outer world, Owen '
Kleran, a shepherd, and neighbor of
Seumas MacManus', out on the hills at
dawn of day beheld the fairies, the lit
tle men and little women, sadly and sor
rowfully taking their departure from
the fairy-haunted glen through which
the intruding railway was to run; and
he told how he saw each little man and
each little woman pluck and carry away
a piece of heather, or a sprig of sham- ,
rock, or a leaf, as a i.iemento of their
sacred glen, now about to be desecrat
ed. in which they had spent their thou
sands of years that were as one day.
The lives of these people among the
Irish mountains are tilled with beauty
and poetry, and all their lovely old be
liefs and old customs and old lore, keep
their hearts ever soft and kind, and
make them, moreover, the most spirit
ual of people.
Of Seumas MacManus' lecture upon
"Fairy and Folk-Gore," Dr. Merle St.
Croix Wright, president. The Compara
tive Literature Society of New York,
writes: "His lecture before our society
was a popular presentation of the mys
ticism and realism of his race, with its
'way of looking at the world as if it
were but an hour old.' He moved a dif
ficult audience to frequent laughter, or
nobly touched them to silence bv the
simple dignity and human feeling of
his theme: greatly aided always by the
quaint charm of idiom and accent that
invested even familiar mater'al with
novel Interest and local color."
The new vaudeville bill that will be
uncovered at the Majestic for the first
half of the week embraces
!>>« Hill two old-time favorites with
n« the local vaudev'lle folowers, as
Majestic well as three other attrac
tions. which, while new
comers here, are said to possess much
talent and variety. Chief of the well
known players are Byron and
man and woman, who present a comedy
sketch, in which Mr. Byron plays a
"nance" of a most hilarious funny type.
The woman plays the part of an actress,
who enters her apartment and discov
ers the strange man there, and no end
of side-splitting incidents follow until
the fall of the curtain. Another popu
lar act is that of the Four Bard Broth
ers. vaudeville's most celebrated gym
nastic act. Several others of almost
equal importance will complete the
roster. Heading the vaudeville bill for
the last half of the week will be Ralph
Dunbar's Bell Ringers."
Charles Cherry, the Frohnian star,
makes his first appearance on the
screen In a realistic

the full force of his histrionic power.
loiter in the week Charles Frohman
Company will presert the emotional
artiste, Pauline Frederick, in "Bella
Donna," the celebrated novel and play
which has been converted into a Para

in the role that made Alia N'azimova
famous. A striking combination of In

and the comedy feature, called "Fatty

place to none. "Fattv" is Roscoe Ar

production include: William Collier,
Sam Bernard. Dew Fields. Je* Weber,
Mack Sennett and Joe Jackson. This

HANDY STOMACH
REMEDY TO HAVE
ABOUT THE HOME
Instantly stops indigestion, gas,
sourness, heartburn or
acidity.
The moment "Pape's Diapepsin"
reaches the stomach all
distress goes.
As there Is often some one in your
family who suffers an attack of indi
gestion, acid stomach, dyspepsia or
some form of stomach trouble, why
don't you keep Pape's Diapepsin in the
house handy?
This harmless blessing will digest
anything you eat without the slightest
discomfort, and overcome a sour,
gassy stomach in five minutes.
Tell your pharmacist to let you read
the formula plainly printed on these
50-cent cases of Pape's Diapepsin. then
you will readily see why it makes
indigestion, sour stomach, heartburn
and other distress go in five minutes
and relieves at once such miseries as
belching of gas, eructations of sour
undigested food, nausea, headaches,
dizziness, constipation and other stom
ach disorders.
Some folks have .tried so long to
find relief from indigestion and dys
pepsia or an out-of-order stomach with
the common every-day cures adver
tised that they have about made up
their minds that they have something
else wrong, or believe theirs is a case
of nervousness, gastritis, catarrh of
the stomach or cancer.
This, no doubt, is a serious mißtake.
Your real trouble is. what you eat does
not digest; instead, it ferments and
sours, turns to acid, gas and stomach
potson, which putrefy in the digestive
tract and intestines, and, besides, poi
son the breath with nauseous odors.
A hearty appetite, with thorough
digestion, and without the slightest
discomfort or misery of the stomach,
is watting for you as soon as you
d.cide to try Pape's Diapepsin.—Ad
