HEW YORKERS CARRY OWN DRINKING CUPS Found Health Law Hard to Get Accustomed To Its Benefits Proven.

NEW YORK. Oct. 19. New York is 'Just beginning to realize what it Means to go without the common drinking cup. The new local law, which went into effect on the first of the month, has begun to reach out and smite the water drinking public in various odd ways that had not been contemplated by those who heard of It ten days ago. It is necessary now to carry your own cup about with you, If you would be certain of getting a draft of October Croton whn attacked by the demons of thirst. To drink from the cup that some one else has used is a misdemeanor, if the cup has not been washed thoroughly betwec-n times. The rule has been made to apply to all kinds of buildings where two or three water dlnkers may be gathered together. Hotels, factories, theaters, public schools, public halls, railroad utations, ferry boats, jails and all other public stamping grounds must abolish their common drinking cups. It even applies to jnany offices downtown, where an inverted water boftle and a single glass heretofore have done service for the entire office staff. The health department Intends to enforce the new regulation vigorously, but it has allowed a little time for replacing the common drinking cup. People have been slow about making the change, In some casos because they do not think the law applies to them. No less a water drinker than ex-Justice Augustus Van Wyck yesterday made the mistake of going to court without his individual cup. Ho was obliged to summon all his legal skill to obtain and ordinary glass of water. The court drinking cup had gone and It was only by the merest luck that an attendant found an untouched glass. Van Wyck, apparently had not heard how another lawyer, John V. Bouvier, Jr., had had the very same trouble on the day before, and had been obliged to buy a glass in order to quench a thirst that impeded the progress of the case. In striking contract to the "improvident lawyer is the ingenious office boy who has not missed a drink since the law went Into effect. Business houses downtown have complained of an unprecedented increase in the demand for envelopes. While the amount of correspondence has remained unchanged the envelopes have disappeared by the score. Those in charge of office stationery could not explain it at first. A boy had discovered that an ordinary envelope made a good drinking cup. First he sealed the flap, then cut the envelope In tow and each half became a water cup. The trick spread from one boy to another, and from office to office, until the officers who wanted to Bend out letters encountered a short ge of stationery. Frequent offenders were the employes who commuted each day from westerly suburbs. Their source of water Bupply had been cut off all along the line in the office, in the ferry house, on board the ferry boat, and in the trains, for the use of common cups had been barred for many weeks In Jersey. 8o when these good people left the office at night, they contrived to carry with them enough of the Arm's envelopes to ward off thirst on the homeward journey, with enough to spare for the morning's rush to town on the next day. In the public schools, the city plans to Install new-fangled spouts from which the water streams when you press down a spring. Meanwhile, the achool drinking cup has vanished, and children who do not carry their own cups to schood must go thirsty. Amusements THY NEIGHBOR'S WIFE. When the curtain rises at the Gennett tonight on Daniel Frohman's production of "Thy Neighbor's Wife," and the audience sees a beautiful set which comprises two cottages with their lawns, one of them neatly kept and the other In a stai of neglect and disorder, they will be prepared for the spirit of comedy. Tbty will not be mistaken, for the comedy has proved to be one of the most uproarious in charMillions Of Folks Use Only Cascarets Thsy never have Headache, Biliousness, Sluggish, Liver or Bowels or . . a Sick, Sour Stomach.

MOST CERTAIN WAY TO END A BAD COLD

It is a positive fact that a dose of Pape's Cold Compound taken every two hours until three consecutive doses are taken will cure Grippe or break up the most severe cold, either in the head, chest, back, stomach or limbs. You distinctly feel the cold breaking and all the disagreeable grippe symptoms leaving after the very first dose. It promptly ends the most miserable headache, dullness, head and nose stuffed up, feverishness, sneezing, sore throat, running of the nose, mucous catarrhal discharges, soreness, stiffness and rheumatic twinges. Pape's Cold Compound is the result of three years' research at a cost of more than fifty thousand dollars and contains no quinine, which we have conclusively demonstrated is not effective in the treatment of colds or grippe. Take this harmless Compound as directed with the knowledge that there is no other medicine made anywhere else in the world, which will cure your cold or end Grippe misery as promptly and without, any other assistance or bad after-effects as a 25-cent package of Pape's Cold Compound, which any druggist in the world can supply. acter. The theme itself, which can be taken tragically, is a novel and original one, and has proved to be a strangely comic one two husbands believing themselves discontented with their wives, and each fancying he loves his neighbor's wife more than his own, proposes an exrhange of partners. The proposition is at first received by the audience with a genuine shock, but as the events resulting from it develop, they are convulsed with laughter at the comic complications which grow out of it. It is not only very funny, but the clever way in which the theme is handled, there is nothing either vulgar or objectionable in the situations. The wives, themselves as in "The Merry Wives of Windsor," suspecting something, put their pretty heads together and. in the end, not only teach their husbands a wholesome lesson, but win back their love. The author has invented a set of characters which are effectively contrasted, it is said, with each other. The suspense is kept alive by plots and counterplots, and In spite of all the fun, there is a deep and touching lesson involved, which gives the play a human and lasting quality. "THE LITTLE GIRL THAT HE FORGOT." Numbered among the attractions which are to appear at the Gennett theater this season is last year's greatest success, made famous by the author. Miss Beulah Poynter, "The Little Girl, That He Forgot." Miss Poynter will be remembered by her beautiful dramatization of "Lena Rivers," which has been witnessed by millions, and 'tis said that "The Little Girl That He Forgot" is a worthy successor to "Lena Rivers." Those who witness the performance will find much to their liking, and witness it production complete. The scenic effects are fine, and a Broadway cast is carried. The play is centered about little June Holly, an ignorant little girl reared among the notorious swamp lands of Southwestern Missouri. The characters are of a peculiar type and bring about many quaint sayings which furnish much enjoyment for all; while the sorrowful predicaments in which little June ofttimes finds herself awaken the emotions of the hardest heart. Don't fail to see "The Little Girl That He Forgot." "THE GIRL IN THE TAXI." An event theatrically of the present season will be the forthcoming appearance in this city of that far-famed and sensationally successful play, "The Girl In The Taxi" which is booked for the ennett Thursday night, Oct. 26. "The Girl In The Taxi" may aptly be referred to as the "big scream" of the year," for wherever it has been presented it has caused audiences to laugh almost to the point of hysterics. Dancing, singing and musical specialties form pleasantly diverting features of "The Girl In The Taxi" and the compnay of players engaged to present this laugh-producing entertainment is composed entirely of comedians of the first rank. The fun is said to start with the rise of the first curtain and the pace set is a fast one. Situations and complications occur which are so screamingly funny that the audience has little opportunity for breathing spells. At the Murray. Not for many months has there been an exhibition or any act upon a local stage of gun spinning as originated and done almost exclusively by the Arabs. Lessick and Anita, the great novelty juggling act, which is showing at the Murray this week is one of the few who are endeavoring to perpetuate this style of jugglong, considered the most difficult of all. A monkey is used in some of these acts and furnishes a pleasing good comedy. Dollie Burton's dogs are a rare combination of woman loveliness and canine intelligence. Dolly dresses her act like no one else in the same line. Her dogs go through their stunts without a minute of wasteful time. A thrilling finish is had to the act in the form of three leaping grey hounds who top articles as high as a man is able to pile them when standing on a chair, clearing in all appriximately thirty feet. Little Miss Eleanor Kissel is a finished artist, although barely of school age. Her songs show all the study and care of a grown artist, and she wins instant favor. Gardiner, Vincent and company in their latest spectacle, the "Magic Horse," have one of the biggest novelties ever presented here. They carry almost a carload of scenery, lamps and electrical effects, making one of the most elaborate acts offered in vaudeville. Out of every ninety-three persons in Germany, one is a railroad employe.

SLAYER RETURNED TO SCEjMJF CRIME To See if He Had Accomplished His Work Successfully Say Police.

ELLSWORTH, Kas., Oct. 19. William Showman and his wife and three small children, whose mutilated bodies were found in their home here, were slain by some one who knew the Showman home apcurately and who was on friendly terms with a family watchdog. These conclusions were reached by the police after twentyfour hours of investigation. The murderer completed his task and covered his crime well. To prevent interruption of his work, he muffled the telephone with Mrs. Showman's cloak. After the tragedy the ax with which the crime was committed and the lamp which silently aided the slayer with its light were placed behind the door, where they were found later. Mrs. W. OvSnook, a neighbor, who discovered the murders, said a dog owned by the Showman's came to her house several times and each time she drove him home. "When I went into the house," said Mrs. Snook, "the dog was in the room lying on the floor. I don't know how it got inside. The doors were locked." The authorities believe the murderer was well known by the dog and that he must have returned to the scene, after the dog had visited the Snook home, and locked the animal indoors. From the condition of the bodies, it is believed that the crime was committed Sunday night. In that case, the slayer evidently returned to the house the day after perhaps to see if he had accomplished his work successfully. DON'T BURY YOUR CLOTHES. Rag bags are old clothes cemeteries. Half the old clothes are sent there by rubbing and scrubbing them with strong, greasy yellow soap. That makes clothes rot out long before their time. It's the other way 'round with Hewitt's Easy Task Soap, the original white kind. That sends the dirt flying, and how much longer the clothes last! Five cents a cake, at all grocers.

Three Ministers Quit, Claiming Their Salaries Have Been Insufficient

;l m I - 111 JU 1:1!, . . CHICAGO, Oct. 19. Another Chicago minister the third within three months has resigned his pulpit because, he says, the salary is inadequate to support a family. The three pastors who have sought other lines of endeavor for this reason are: Henry M. McDowell, Woodlawn Park Congergational church, resigned Sunday. C. H. Hey wood, Wentworth avenue Baptist church, resigned July 16. ! W. F. Bostick, Western Avenue : Baptist church, resigned August 1. I The Rev. Mr. McDowell declares he ' sought manual labor during the summer holidays; that his flock declared I the work undignified and therefore he quit. The Rev. Mr. Hey wood and the Rev. Mr. Bostick both contemplated marriage and said they could not support wives on $1,000 and $1,200 a year respectively. Mr. McDowell's salary i was $1,440 per annum, but he has a wife and five children to support. ! From the pulpit Mr. McDowell step- ' ped to the express car of a Rock Is land train, and he is now an expressman at $10 a week. He went to work Monday, and in the employ of the United States Express company now makes four runs a day between Chicago and Blue Island. "Feel of that arm," said the preacher-expressman at his home, 6064 South La Salle street. The former minister smiled as he said it, for he was not a bit tired from his hard labor. He had played in the University of Kansas football team in 1900 and on that of the Oberlin Theological seminary in 1903. Undignified to Work. Then he told his story and made some comments on churches and : church people. Here are a few of them: "I went to work instead of going : to Europe for a vacation. My people said it was undignified. So I quit. I "Instead of a parson one who leads the minister must follow his flock's whims and orders. I've been everything in chuch, from choir boy to a pastor. Still they objected to my outside manual labor. "The church at large is an honest institution. The public is misled by the mean few. AFTER A SHAVE USE PLEX 10c. Whether you shave yourself or employ the barber it is necessary to use a good 8 atiseptic after shaving. Plex is just what is wanted and will be found a delightfully cooling, soothing and refreshing antiseptic. If your face is so tender that you have to "go easy" use Plex. It will strengthen the tender skin and enable you to stand much closer shave. Plex will rid the face of blackheads, pimples and brown spots, antiseptically cleanses the pores and works out the soap particles which cause irritation. Plex is a specific for all eruptions, such as barber's itch, boily faces, red nose and liver spots. Insist on your barber using Plex. Ask him for a Plex steam; it invigorates and makes the face feel new. Sunburn and tan quickly cured with a few applications of Plex, 10c. It will remove the tan completely, leaving the skin soft, clear and white. Your druggist has it or can easily get it for you. Sent prepaid on receipt of price by the O. C. Co., Terre Haute, Ind.

"There are always a few people who get into the church to cover their meanness. To cover it well they get the offices. "When a minister says his work is done, it's because he has struck a snag. If a preacher could preach only the gospel to people who want only the gospel what a pleasure it would be. "You'd be surprised if you knew the number ot pastors looking for other jobs. A pulpit in a secondary Chicago church can not be filled at $120 a month if the pastor has a family."

PARISHIONERS GRAFTERS. ALLENTOWN, Pa.. Oct. 19. The! Rev. J. J. Reitz, for twenty-five years pastor of the Allentown Lutheran church resigned last night, after reading a scathing letter accusing members of his flock of being robbers, gratters and indulging in all kinds of dishonesty. He said he had failed to receive more than one-half his salary each year, and the church owes him $100 for money he advanced in litigation. He declared the wealthy men of the congregation would agree to church improvements only when either they or some favored contractor got the contract to do the work. "You are worse than robbers," he concluded, "for you perform your thievery in the house of the Lord." PEGGY STEWART DAY WAS CELEBRATED (National News Association BALTIMORE. Md.. Oct. 19.
