DEATH FINDS MRS. FISKE IN TYPICAL ROLE No Hotel Register Here Ever Gave Away Fact She Was a Guest. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN Mrs. Minnie Madem Fiske died in a Long Lsland village Monday, "at the home of a friend whose name was not divulged," a great deal like

the way she lived. Many times when the greatest personality of the modem stage visited Indianapolis, I made an effort to find where she was stopping. No hotel register ever gave me the secret. She might have registered, but her signature was never public property. One time her manager told me, “I do not know where Mrs. Fiske

is stopping, as she has a lady companion who sees that she arrives at the theater on time." I have been informed on reliable authority that at times when Mrs. Fiske was on a run in New York that her husband did not see her for days, and at times only knew where she was when she came to his office for mail. The only personal appearance that this famous woman ever made in this city was when she gave a lecture in behalf of stray dogs and cats. Her interest in dumb animals was probably her only diversion. Mrs. Fiske. in the last twenty years, never consented to interviews, as I was told that she wanted to conserve her strength for her performance She always was thinking of her audience, although she stayed farther away from people in their everyday walk of life more than any other individual. An indication of her approaching end was sounded by Chicago cfitics last fall when they refused to say adverse things regarding her performance because the “first lady of the stage was ill.” She was scheduled to appear last fall at English’s but was cancelled. According to Vincent Burke, manager of English’s, Mrs. Fiske’s last appearance in this city was with Otis Skinner in Shakespeare’s “Merry Wives of Windsor.”

URGES CURB ON UTIUTYRATES Kealing Says Ownership by Public Is Powerful Threat. Clarifying the law to make municipal acquisition of public utilities j easier, was suggested by Harold F. Kealing, Irvington Republican Club I president, in an address before the j club Monday night With the constant threat of municipal ownership facing them, utilities would be more inclined to keep rates as low as possible, he said. Kealing proposed several legislative changes to obtain fair utility rates. He urged penalties where utilities are found to be making a secret profit and where expenses are not listed accuAtely. Municipal Judge Dan V. White proposed rate disputes be arbitrated by commissions of representative citizens elected or appointed and serving without pay.

Why Fat Folks Stay Fat “The trouble with me, and I guess this applies to 99% of the men and women who are putting on weight, I didn’t have the energy or “pep” to keep it off. Lost all interest in any healthy activity and just lazed around accumulating the old pounds.” Start taking Kruschen Salts—that’s the common-sense SAFE way to reduce. This is what they do—they clean ont the Impurities in Tonr blood by keeping the bowels, kidneys and lirer in splendid working shape and fill you with a vigor and tireless energy you’d most forgotten had existed. Asa result instead of planting yourself in an easy chair every free moment and letting flabby fat accumulate, you feel an urge for activity that keeps you moving around doing the things you've always wanted to do and needed to do to keep you in good condition. Be careful of the foods you eat—go light on fatty meats and pastry—then watch the pounds slide off! Take one half teaspoonful in a glass of hot water tomorrow morning and every morning —and if they don't change yonr whole idea about reducing, go back and get the small price you paid for them. Get a bottle of Kruschen Salts—lasts ♦ weeks—at Dependable Drug Stores or any progressive druggist anywhere in the world, but for your health’s sake when reducing be sure and get Kruschen—it's the safe, harmless way to reduce.—Advertisement.
