A digpified entertainment in which each part has a definite relation to every other part is the ideal instead ot the oldtime hodgepodge of features thrown to aether with no regard for unity or good taste. An excellent example of this harmonious arrangement of fea tures is given this week at the Mrand theater. Harry B. Watts, manager of the Mrand, has arranged as an accompaniment to "The Dancin' Pool," a delightful dance act and a ja?z overture. Four saxophones are added to the orchestra for the over ture, house lights arc dimmed and the ' spotlight helps to emphasize such melodies, as "Stop It," "Slow and Easy," "Daddy" and "By Jingo." Seldom is anything as charming as the dance act which follows shown in Omaha.

Observers have noted that a sick horse, dog or eat will stop eating food and seek out some vegetable growth in the field or yard, which, when found and eaten, often raatores appetite and health. Hveot you aeen these animals do this very thing yourself? Dr. Piarea, of Buffalo, "N. Y Jong since, found herbs and roota provided by Nature to overcome constipation, and of theee ha selected Mayappla. leaves of Aloe, root of Jalap, and from them, made little white stigarvooated pills, that he called Dr. Pierce's Pleaaaat Pellets. You i must understand that when your intestines ire stopped up, poisons and decayed matter are im prisoned in our system and these an carried by the ' blood through ( yonr body.
