Kyra Meets Approval
of Women Only Audience
pur Mabel Likewise Grows Enthusiastic Over
Physical Cutt ure Exhibit .
BY MABEL TTHF.EI.tB,
“Say old dear,” lilted "Hick,” as I
drifted Into my happy little parking
apace yesterday morning, “Toddle
found ’eafternoon and hear Kyra, will
you?”
“Kiro” said I, “Klro corn sirup, chiro
practor or chiropidests? Hate strop, got
a friend in the hospital from visiting a
chiropractor and never have any trouble
with my fc-e . Got any other kind of
Kiro to oicf. Anyway I wanna play
tennis ’safternoon.”
“Poor fish,” he ejaculated rorta sad
like, “Doneha read the papers? Why any
man in this office would buy me a din
ner for the chance I'm offering you, and
not stop to attempt asinine witticisms.
Why—Kyra—the sensation of the ’New
York Whirl,’ Kyra the dancer who would
put dear old Psyche off the map if it
tame to a beauty contest and make the
Immortalized Venus look like a dumb
bell with the gout.”
“If she's so all-flred beautiful 'nevery
thing, why donteha go yourself,” I sug
gested. “Why pick on me. “Whata I
care for Psyches and Venuses? Give me
a golden haired Apollo or a nice old hard
boiled Jupiter, who's a whiz with the
thunder throwing.” I started to work,
but that was all—Just a start.
■AD BEADS
“LADIES ONXT.”
“Shades of ray temperamental ances
tors, do you think for a moment that I
would stand here talking to you, if men
were admitted; no, the irony of it all is
the irrevocable ad that reads 'Ladies
only.’ ”
“Yon flatter me," chirped I, “bnt I’ll
go. glide along little one, rest in peftce,
Jfyra shall be my charge; exit ternls,
Pnter Kyra. Avaunt!”
And he avaunted without further com
ment.
And I did “toddle” round and Join the
eager throng parked in the Murat lobby
waiting to hear Kyra’s health and beauty
talk, illustrated by some of her dances
and poses. There were more than 1,300
women present for the matinee, and Kyra
earried them off their feet. It might be
easy for such a vision of physical per
fection and charm to carry the ever sus
ceptible males into a riot of enthusiasm,
but when one lone woman wins the spon
taneous approval of such a flock of her
own sex It is nothing short of mlracu
lona.
ADDRESS CREATES
SERIOUS INTEREST.
But her unaffected manner, her grace
ful movements and her clever interpola
tions. together with her straight from the
shoulder shots on the poor management
of the human body by the average
woman, drew their close attention and
serious Interest.
She didn’t tell the women to rest and
play to become beautiful, instead she told
them that work was the greatest factor
In becoming healthy and beautiful.
“There are Just two don’ts I want you to
remember,” she said, “don't be self-in
dulgent and don't be lazy!”
She demonstrated dally exercises that
rhould be taken for various faults in
health and beauty. Her suppleness, her
perfect control over her muscles, won a
Itorra of applause from the women. She
is slender, but developed to what looked
like perfection to my untrained feminine
ye, and 6he could touch the floor with
the palms of her hands, goln’ or cornin’;
foil clear across the stage without qnlek
inlng her breath, and she incidentally
Ihowed the fat women how to get rid
r fifty pounds in six months and “us
girls'* of the string bean variety how to
jrnw a figure in sixty days. It may
lound like a Joke, but it wasn’t. It was
111 good, solid common sense. If every
)ne of us who groan about being too
(at and too thin wonld remember all
;hat Kyra told us and follow out her
instructions we would, without a doubt,
fain a good healthy body and looks
rith it.
DANTES NUMBERS
OF HER DESIGN.
She dances some exqnlsits pantomime
eumbers of her own design, which were
|o enchanting that the audience gained
!or breath at her loveliness. It was a
Sainty youthful affair all the wav

through, the slim little girl Just told all
the folks a lot of fine things Just for the
good of their health and happiness, turn
ing the curiosity of a certain portion of
onlookers into surprised interest.
Following the lecture she received all
who cared to spenk to her, on the stage,
and the fair ladies fairly smothered her
in their eagerness to thank her for her
courtesy.
One matron, approaching the double
chin stage, said that Kyra should not
go on with the show, for her duty was
to stay in Indianapolis and teach the
under and over-weight women how to
be Just like her.
“You don't need me.” the dancer an
swered. "You have a splendid Y. W. C. A.
Go over there and get instructions where
I first started. Then stick to it. I have
been six years gaining what I have ac
quired. It's perserverance that wins out
in most any fight even in the line of good
looks.”
She shook hands with hundreds, told
them the things they wished to know,
looked as if sue loved everyone of the
bunch, didn't even look weary, after be
ing carried across the stage by the hu
man current, but on her tiptoes waved
me a merry “adios” as I warbled “so
long” to her from the top of the paste
board flight of stage stairs.
Crane May ‘Make Up 9
With Pretty Wife
Froni Costa Rica
CHICAGO, Nov. 16. —Herbert P. Crane,
Chicago millionaire, and his former wife,
Elida Piza, Costa Itica beauty, are to re
marry, according to reports in social cir
cles here today. The former wife on
her way from Costa Itica will be met in
New Y'ork by Crane, it was said.
She was granted $70,000 alimony re
cently. Her attorney, J. Hamilton Lewis,
said she was returning to the United
States to reopen the case, the alimony be
ing unpaid, it is charged.
"I admit that I have heard of the
reconciliation,” said Lewis. “It would be
a good move on Crane's part.”
” MOTHER!
Open Child’s Bowels with
“California Fig Syrup”
Even a sick child loves the “fruity"
taste of “California Fig Syrup.” If the
little tongue is coated, or if your child is
I,'srless, cross, feverish, full of cold, or has
col!c, give a teaspoonful to cleanse the
liver and bowels. In a few hours you can
see for yourse f how thoroughly It works
all the constipation poison, sour bile
and waste out of the bowels, and you
have a well, playful child again.
Millions of mothers keep “California
Fig Syrup” handy. They know a tea
spoonful today saves a sick child to
morrow. Ask your druggist for genuine
“California Fig Syrup” which has direc
tions for babies and children of all ages
printed on bottle. Mother! You must
say “California - ' or you may get an imi

New York Physician Says
Weak, Thin, Nervous Folks

It’s worth your while to r what Dr. Jo*.
P. Harrlgan, a New York speelailut. has to say
about the nerTe and brain cell builder that
; lending druggists sell so much of these days.
He writes:
“Let those who are weak, thin, nervous,
anaemic or run-down take natural unadulter
ated substance* euch as Bitro-Phosphate and
you will soon see some astonishing results in
the inereas of nervo energy and streugth of
body nud mind.”
Bitro-Phosphate Is a pure organic phosphate
such as good physicians prescribe to Increase
weight and create abundant serve force.

SLEEPS FINE AS
TRAINS RATTLE
BY HER WIOW
“Railway trains rattle past our house
all night long, but I never hear them. I
sleep soundly since taking Pepgen,” says
Mrs. Bessie Clegg of 347 South State
street, Indianapolis.
“I was In a goneral run-down, nervous
condition before I took Pepgen. I don't
think I had enjoyed a good night's rest
for two years. I felt weak and tired
nearly all the time and could hardly do
my housework. My stomach also
troubled me. Gas formed on my stomach :
after I had eaten Just a few bites. I I
bloated badly and felt miserable. In ■
addition. I suffered from severe pains in
my back caused by my kidneys.
“I am so pleased with Pepgen that I’m
glad to recommend it publicly. Pepgen :
has made anew woman of me. The
nervousness is gone. I sleep soundly all
night long. The railway tracks are near !
our house, but I never hear the trains j
rattle by. I 6leep too soundly. The tired !
feeling is gone. I go about my work
with more energy than I've known for i
many a day. The gas, bloating and
other stomach trouble I had before has
disappeared. I eat my meals with a rel- ;
ish. Pepgen also relieved the pains in j
my back.”
It is necessary for every person to keep 1
* she organs of digestion and assimilation j
|in good health. The constitution de- |
mands a variety of foods.
Those who take Topgen say they can [
eat anything without discomfort. Pep- j
gen has relieved hundreds of thousands
iof cases of headaches, constipation, in-I
digestion, dyspepsia, catarrh, sluggish
liver and kidney ills because it induces '
I good digestion and assimilation.
Men and women who need better diges
! tion, more strength and a toning up of
j the nervous system will do well to try
i Pepgen.
I Pepgen is recommended and sold by
; the following leading drug stores:
Haag's, Hook's -and Iluder's. It is also
stocked by other first-elass pharmacies ;
in Indianapolis and nearby towns.—Ad- 1
