People who are walking along the road and are overtaken by the rural delivery mail wagons, should remember that however much the driver would like to give them a ride he does uot dare to do so. Uncle Sam has decreed that no one shall ride in the wagons but the mail carrier, and he must be obeyed. There are sections of the country where that ruling means more than it does here, but it had to be made general Rural carrier on the routes leaving Bloomsburg say that requests for a ride are almost daily occurrences A UA TTER OF HEALTH Absolutely Pure as l!0 SUBSTITUTE M mi Catarrh Is a constitutional disease originating in impure blood ana requiring consumuonai treatment acting through and purifying the blood for its radical and permanent cure.

The day of the stage being de. cried as an instrument of the devil, presenting alluring visions of sin, seems to have passed with the coming of the religious play; and the end of the warfare twixt Church and Stage seems to be as welcome to one as to the other. Plays which a few years ago would have been denounced as in famous and even profane are to day welcomed alike by Church and Laymen. An example might be cited in "The Holy City." The nlav not only deals with Bible times, but in it many leading Bibli cal characters appear. It is a drama with the story taken from Bible history. "The Holy City" is a theatrical offering, yet the principal character is John the Baptist, and even the Crucifixion is shown in tableau (the figure of Christ being represented by a painting). Many other seemingly daring innovations are made, yet the play has received the unanimous endorsement of all of the members of the clergy who have seen it. The secret of this seemingly marvelous change in the sentiment of the Church toward the stage may be attributed to two causes: First, the recognition by the church that such plays as "The Holy City" not only tend to direct theatre goers' attention to the Church, but that they also convey of themselves a grand good lesson, more force fully and more successfully than any other method; secondly be cause the very delicacy of the sub ject has caused it to be treated with such respect and reverence that those who "go to scoff remain to pray" and even the most devout person can find nothing to offend. So "The Holy City" with its cast of Bible Characters, has proven one of the successes of the theatri cal season, and two companies, one in the East and one in the West, are nightly crowding the theatres in which it is shown. It will be seen here next Tuesday evening, February 21. Deeds Recorded, J. C.
