dsttcers, whose greatest ambition In

One can very easily gather the Im
pression that thin scene makes upon
Youth on his first visit to the cabaret,
•a he tnrns to Pleasure and say*;
"Pleasure, let mo thank you, It's
glorious! The music ami the laugh

faint odor of dying roses, . Every
where there are women's eyes that
sparkle like the moonlight on * sil
ver river, Everywhere there are
white arms that beckon me to lips
In carudit)e welcome, OH, Pleasure,
how wonderful you are to grant me
all this." In his fascination with the
scene of revelry, Youih turns to Ex
perience and asks hint if Pleasure
Isn't wonderful. And Experience
answers; "Wonderful indeed. In that
she has no knowledge of the pain
that follows ever In her footsteps,"
Youth's enthusiasm, however, ta
not dampened, and he rays to Pleas
ure; "I think' you arc the end of the
rainbow, and all the treasures of the
world are in your keeping. I think
you are the sunshine of n cloudless
day and all the (lowers of the earth
look up to you."
Experience has a different point
of view. He says: "I think Pleasure
is but the stain of last night's wine,
spilled upon the tablecloth. Site Is
but a snowflalco fallen into the
ocean. Pleasure, my boy, Is the last
crimson Hood that the setting sun
has left to die in a cold gray sky."
"Experience" will close n two day's
engagement at the Orphoum to-night.
When the Army and Navy rinyers
arrive in town to play a brief en
gagement at the Or-
Arny and pheum, next Wedttes-
Nnvy Show day night, they will be
accompanied by the
famous Twelfth U. S. Infantry Band
of forty pieces, under the leadership
of Lieutenant Eldrldge, bandmaster
of the Twelfth IT. S. Infantry, and by
special permission of Colonel Aloe,
commanding officer of the organiza
tion.
The players are on a limited tour
to raise funds for the entertainment
of the returning fighters from over
seas and are offering what they are
pleased to call 'An Intimate Revue

The first purt of the entertlnment
will be a big, real minstrel first part
with special settings and effects.
Many new and novel songs and
dances are Introduced and the comedy
is well taken care of by four real
professional (in civil life) comedians.

"EXPERIENCE" LS
PRESENTED HERE
Large Audience at Orplleum
Enjoys Hobart's Moral
ity Play
George V. Hobart's morality play, j
"Experience," was presented In the
Orpheum theater last night before
a crowded house. To the large audi
ence present tho play brought many
good lessons on the roads through
life. Leonard Doyle playing tho part'
of Youth, began life "In the Land
Where Dreams Bogtn." Here he met
Love, Hope and Ambition. Ambi
tion offered to lead him on to tho
highest pinnacle of success. But
Youth come to "The Street of Vac
cination" where ho was met by
Pleasure and Experience. Oppor
tunity called to him in vain. He
followed Pleasure to the "Primrose
Path" where he met Wealth, Intoxi
cation and a score of other delight
ful companions. He traveled on
through the "Corridors of Chance"
where his wealth was taken from
him by the roulette dealer, and on
to the "Street of Disillusion." In
"Tho House of Last Resort" he final
ly met Poverty, a grim, ragged spec
ter, Grouch, Frailty and other com
panions. He visited the "Street of
Romance," and then "The House of
Lost Souls." Then he came to the
"Street of Forgotten Days" where
he heard Cardinal Newman's fa
mous song "Lead, Kindly Light" and
caught a vision of the village church
in fho "land where dreams begin."
Finally he reached the end of his
journey in "the land where the
dreamer awakens," bruised, Veary
and helpless. Meeting Love and
Hope here he vows to start on his
journey with them as his comrades.
The play certainly is one of the most
powerful being presented and seems
to be gaining in popularity in this,
city where it has been presented be
fore.

YANKEE ENEMIES
MAY HAVE BLOWN
UP SYRUP TANK
Purity Distilling Company As
sumes Blow Came From
Outside of Vessel
By Associated Press
Boston, Jan. 16.—The cause of the
explosion of a huge tank of molasses
on the watdr front off Cemmerclal
street, yesterday, by which probably
a dozen people were killed, had not
been determined at an early hour'
this morning. Harry F. R. Dolan,
attorney for the Purity Distilling
Company, Issued the following state
ment:
"The company assumes that the
tank was broken by something which
acted upon it from the outside. We
are conducting an investigation. It
is possible the tank may have been
broken by enemies of the United
States who knew that we were en
gaged during the war in the manu
facture of alcohol which was used
In making munitions."
Theonly bodies identified during
the night were those of a fireman,
George Leahy, and two residents of
I tenements in the vicinity, Mrs.
Bridget Clougherty and William A.
Dulfee. A large number of the in
jured were taken to the relief hos
pital. The tank was owned by the
Purity Distilling Company, a sub
sidiary of the. United States Indus
trial AlcOhol Company, of Cam
bridge. Two million gallons of mo
lasses rushed in a mighty stream
over the streets and converted into a
sticky mass the wreckage of several
small buildings which had been
smashed by the force of the explo
sion.
The greatest mortality apparently
occurred in a city building, where a
score of municipal employes were
eating their lunch. The structure was
demolished. Another city building
also was torn from its foundations
and two women occupants were se
verely injured.
A section of the tank wall fell on
a tire house, crushing its three fire
men, including Leahy, who was
killed, were buried in the ruins. The
. r est of the tank wall crashed against
the elevated structure of the Boston
Klevated Railway in Commercial
street, damaging" three spuns, sus
pending all tratllc on the line which
connects the north and south sta
tions.
A small dwelling on Copps Hills
terrace slid into the street, appar
ently sucked down by the receding
tide of molasses. Mrs. Clougherty
was thrown through a window and
killed.
While the cause of the explosion
had not been definitely determined
to-nipht, state police officials ex
pressed the opinion that it resulted
from gas fumes generated by fer
mentation in the molasses.

Physicians Explain Why Women Need More

Beauty of the Modern American Woman.
DH. FERDINAND KING, New York
I*h)'Nlclnn and Medical Author, suys

tona of Dr. JtinieN Eranela Sullivan,
formerly Physician of Ilellcvue
Hospital (Outdoor Dept.), New
York, nnd the Wealcheater County
Hoapltnlt Dr. A. J. Newman, former
l'oltce .Suriceon of Chicago, nnd
other phyalclann who hnve thor
ouichly tested the value of Novated
Iron. |
Any, woman who tires easily, is I
nervous or irritable, or looks pale,
haggard, and worn should at once
have her blood examined for iron de- j
ficiency—administration of sipipie
Nuxated Iron will often increase the
strength and endurance of weak,,
nervous, careworn women in two
weeks' time.
"There can be no strong, healthy,
beautiful, rosy-cheeked women, with
out iron," says Dr. Ferdinand King,
a New York physician and Medical
Author. "I have strongly emphasized
the fact that doctors should prescribe
more organic iron—Nuxated Iron—for
their nervous, run-down, weak, hag
gard-looking women patients. Pallor
means anaemia. The skin of an
anaemic woman Is pale, the flesh
dabby. The muscles lack tone, the
brain fags, and the memory fails, and
often they become weak, nervous,
irritable, despondent and melancholy.
When the iron goes from the oiood of
women the roses go from their
cheeks.
"In .the most common foods of
America, the starches, sugars, table
syrups, candies, polished rice, white
bread, soda crackers, biscuits, macar
oni, spaghetti, tapioca, sago, farina,
degerminated cornmeal, no lon&er Is
Iron to be found. Defining processes
have removed the iron iof Mother
Karth from these impoverished foods,
and silly methods of home cookery,
by throwing down the waste pipe the
water in which our vegetables are
cooked, are responsible for unother
grave Iron loss. Therefore, you
should supply the iron deficiency in
your food by using some form of or
ganic iron. Just as you would use salt
when your food has not enough salt."
Dr. A. J. Newman, former Police •
Surgeon of Chicago, and former
House Surgeon, Jefferson Park Hos
pital, Chicago, sayßi "It has been
my particular duty during the past
six years to assist in keeping Chi
cago's Ave thousand blue coats in
good health and perfect fighting trim,
so that they would be physically
equipped to withstand all manner of
storms and ravages of nature's ele

iiioro harm than good.
"Notwithstanding all that has been

well-known physicians, thousands of
people still insist in dosing them
