'J-fr TEJJHSWBV' 's- TV THfi. HTTSBtJEG DISPATCH; StrNHAY, SEPTEMBER- 21 1880. K 13- . - . 157 i .... - - . . ; "With Marie "Wainwriglit, the Exposition, y shoppins tours, drives and little informal i teas the week has been quite a gay one. Everything begins to look decidedlv win try, the promenades are filled with ladies arrayed in the new plaids and wearing fur capes or coats and eentleraen walkinc briskly with topcoats buttoned up snugly, while the cheery grate fires that glimmer through the prettily-draped windows in the evenincs invite the allegiance that has been paid so faithfully for some months past to the verandas and tennis courts. The dawn of the new season pressages joy and mirth for the social world, and innumer able conquests for those on conquest intent. And to make doubly certain of her victory, what do you suppose the society belle is studying up? Xotning more or less than the dangerous science of hypnotism. Prrparirc for the Cnninaisn. Xot content with the vantage ground she already possesses by reason ot her own charming personality, her bright eyes, pearly teeth and wavy hair sue will intensify her power bv a more or less thorough knowl edge of hypnotism. It is a fact that ever so many of the charming creatures are reading upon the new fad, and "practicing just a bit, you know." on whatever subject may come handy. fe Some of them have thus early in the lray become quite expert with the serpent power of their pretty eyes, and the victim is pow erless as long as the fair tyrant desires to liold him uuder the spell. He is an alject slave for the time being, carries packages, umbrellas and shopping bags, buys candies, soda water and peaches, orders theater tickets, flowers and carriages, regardless of his bauk account or absence of one. It' Going tobc Scrlou. All this they are capjll.'. of compelling the gay gallants to do now, and when their power is more fully developed proposals will come at will. Think ol it and weep, young man, at the fate in store tor you, for according to the old formula inthejirith metic if one maiden can accomplish so much by the use ot her eyes, three maidens can accomplish three times as much. And just imagine three or even more of the lair ones Living siege to your pocketbook and heart at different times and places, and yonr being powerless to resist responding to all of them. "What a chaotic life you will lead, mar ried men and all, though I understand the benedicts are to be exempt from the intense, glance that is to result in a proposal onl'ie spot, but cot from the bonbon Mtack. Oh! no. . ThoexEiBbanch. AMEBICAHS AT ABIS. Jt" Tbe aiisscs I.y'" kt Fittibnrc, Among IET BITX-r'S CABLE COMPAST.; Paris.

It is not likely that we shall see a more thoroughly artistic performance than that of "Twelfth Nicbt" this season. The whole pro duction from Miss Wainwright herself down to small detai1s,whlch lent verisimilitude to scene and occasion, spoke of a sincere desire to make it worthy of tbe play. Miss Wainwright has won a host ot new admirers during, this en gagement; and it Is gratifying' to know that Pittsburg's appreciation or Shakespearean drama proporly presented was expressed warm ly in dollars and cents. Nothimr can very well be added to the praise which THE Dispatch bas-ilready bestowed upon the entire company. Miss Wainwright's plans for next season' look to the production of a historical drama, tbe name of which her managers-are nor ready to reveal. It will be set upon the stage in the magnificent style which characterizes Twelfth Night." V Dion Boucicault'8 death, old man as he was, is a big blow to the drama. He stood head and shoulders above bis cotemporarles on both sides of the Atlantic as a practical play-maker. His Knowledge otthe technique of his art was most profound! Several of bis plays will' live beyond all question for a long time, it not for ever. "London Assurance," written when he was but. 18, and "The Shaugbraun," are, I thiuk, the most likely to enjoy a very long life. Boucicault played at tbe Bijou Theater the season before last In "The Shanghrauu" and "The Flirt," tho latter a clever comedy and one of his latest works. Pittsburg audiences were surprised arhis juvenility and histrionic fire. Although ho was 63 be played the boyish characters in both pieces with wonderful-dash. That was about his last appearance' upon the stage. Since then ho has written two or three plays,, many matrazine articles, and taught regularly in the Madison Square Theater Dra matic School, which, was a pot hobby of his. Tho last play which was produced was "The Tale of a Coat." which Sob Smith Russell pre sented at Daly's Theater for the first time only a few weeks ago, and it has been announced that he-was engaged with Bret Harto in writing an other, to be called "The Luck of Roaring Camp," founded on tbe familiar story ot the same name by Sir. Harte. V The life of Dion Boucicault is not all pretty reading, but there is much that is edifying and interestingjn a glimpse of his life which he gave In bis awn words once, as follows: "My first piece was 'Napoleon's Old Guard,' my sec ond the farce of 'A Lover by Proxy,' and if yon need to learn-that God helps those-who help themselves, take a lesson from me. Mathews was then In power, and to him I sub mitted tho farce, which he promised to read. I called on him several times, but of course did not succeed In gettingan audience. Finally I caugbrhlnrdralng" and was" admitted to his presence. "Ah, yonng man,'1 he said, 'you wish to know my verdict on your farceT Iris promis ing, in fact, clever; but! cannot produce it at present, for my time is filled up. However, if you care to leave it, I'll see what can be done hereafter. There are good' points in Harry Lawless. If I had a part like that in afive-act play. I'd jump atit.' Well. I knew that Mathews bad not tbe remotest idea of bringing out my farce, bu I saw light in his remark regarding a five-act play. I wenthome and began 'London Assurance.' and in six weeks completed it. This was in March. I&il, at tbo age of IS. Again I went to Mathews and showed him the comedy. 'But I ordered no comedy,' ho exolaimcd. 'I am aware of that,' I replied. 'Yon did say, however; that if you bad a part like Harry. Lawless in a five-act comedy you'd jump at it, I've written such a character for you.' 'What!' lie cried, 'do you mean to say you've written a five-act comedy in six weeks, on my suggestion?' 'Yes-. My perseverance so astounded Mathews that his Indifference turned to interest. He read 'Lon don Assurance,' accepted it, and when I read it to the actors of Convent Garden, Madam Nestrlswas so pleased" that Bho came to me, sajlng: 'Whatever may be the public verdict, we f eul euro that you have written a great comedy " V Evans & Hoey soein to have a gold mine still In "A Parloi Match," It is now being played for the first time at a Broadway Theater m New York. With it new famishment of songs and specialties the veteran farce-comedy Is drawing so well that it will stay at the Park Theater till late in October at least. Clara Thropp is the new innocent Kida and the New York papers say she is good. There is also a new trio of English dancers and other new features. When Charles Evans and William Hoev. forsaking the vaudevilles, came forth as dramatic stars in "A Parlor Match" at Tony Pastor's, somewhere in tho vicinity of 1884 there was at first some doubt whoiher they had chosen wisely. Their play was absurdity itself. It had Hoyt's name; but there wa another claimant for its authorship in Frank Dumont, the minstrel, who vowed that K was onlv an elongation of bis old sketch, "The Book Agent," hieh Evans and Hoeyused to play in their humble days. Hoyt and Damont lung ago ceased to quarrel, but "A Parlor Match' has never since failed to profit Its pair of stars. There was a month or so of suspense, and af tor that all was serenity and profit. . This season's shore is already strewn with wrecks. Frank McNIsh, the old minstrel, had started a-starringln a farcical play called "Out of Sight," It was his white-faced debut, and be had been led to expect a triumph. Be played a sort of protean role, Impersonating an English lord, a French valet, a negro, and an American traveling salesman. Oddly enough; those who had flocked to see him do acrobatic marvels in bnrnt cork didn't respond t his new appeal. The company returned to New" York. There is a hint that they will reorganize! and go out again, however. Another troupe returned to Now York i headed by George Edgar in "The Banker."" Their Pittsburg experience was sad enough, bdt Buffalo finished them. They, too, talk of resuniinjr travel after tha play has been revised. A "Michael Stroeoff companv, organized by G. W. Mitchell, is stranded at St. Louis, owine to too Iisbt re ceipts. Francis Leon'seffort to establish a per manent minstrel band at Chicago has come to .grief, as have all similar attempts in recent years. Leon has now made tbe theater com bination house. He is wealthy, and the failure will not hurt him financially. The truth about Edwin Booth's health is not cay to obtain. His representative In New York writes me that the reports ot Mr. Booth's illness are nntrue. This week's "Mirror says: Edwin Booth is troubled with a form of sciati ca. He has freqoent vef tlgo, and often when be rises to walk bis legs are unsteady and he is obliged to lean on a chair for temporary sup port. Mr. Booth is recovering from the attack that caused afixietywhis friends ftweekagd, but there is grave reason to think that be will never again play with the old flro and energy. Every sincere admirer of the drama hopes that these reports are exaggerated, but it is to be feared that Mr. Booth has not enjoyed good health since his seizure about to year and a half The dramatization of that extremely disa greeable novel "The Clemonceau Case," bas not achieved a success in New York, where it was produced last week. At first Hiss Pearl Eytinge essayed tbe heroine's role, bat compe tent actress as she is. she could not realize tbe character at alb Miss Eytinge has not acted for some time, and ber clever work In prose and verse, somo of which bas appeared in The DISPATCH, alone has kept her name belore tbe public. She raustbe more than S3 though to mention this is not very gallant seeiug that she w A already an actress of some years' ex perience when she appeared In the original Eroduction by" Mr. Florence, of "Tbe Mishty dollar." at Abbey's Park Theater in 1876. "The Clemenceatt Case" was her first in several years, and it' is unfortunate" that she should have essayed a part so totally unfitted f.,rbrr. On Wednesday night Miss Sybil Johnstone appeared in Misr EyttngB's' place; She-is a" clever actress, bat' tbe means by which she created a sensation had very little to do with histrionics; Tho critic of the New York Tttliti describes what happened thus: ''.Miss John- stone's figure bas all theslendernesrand little ness of you tb. and she did not hesitate' to dress perhaps undress Is a better term In ar man ner that was startling to say the least. Her first costume was well enough. It was that of a student, and was neat, pretty and tasteful. The second was arnegligce in no sense remark able, but the third produced a sensation. It consisted of a pair of tights and a closely-fitting upper garment that clung without a crease to everv curve. It was in these light and airy nothings that Miss Johnstone took tbe center of the stagoand posed as a model In tbe studio" scene. There was not a trace of drapery, and when tbe posing was finished Mr. Lackaye carefully enfolded ber in a looscly-flowf nir wrap that only emphasized tbe nakedness of ber neck and ankles. "To say the spectators were surprised but feebly expresses tbe sensation caused by tbe exposure. They fairly gasped for breath. In the fourth act Miss Johnstone wore a light silk wrapper of such flimsy material that it clung persistently to her and disclosed thef act that she still had on her 'model' costume. Her performance,- histrionically, was highly suc cessful." It is not probable that Pittsburg will be shocked with a view of this unpleasant play and its peculiar concomitants. Manager W. A. Brady under whose fostering care Bobby Gaylor and "The Irish Arab" are traveling, is a remarkable man. Not physically perhaps; for he is small In' stature, but in the' brain department. Five years ago he was a property man, to-day he owns four dramatic companies; all of which are on a paying basis. and as ho is not yet 30 years old be has plenty of time to make a bigger mark. Those who are familiar with bis career attribute bis success to his good business qualities, his knowledge of stage craft' and judgment of hdmad nature. His dramatic policy has been to take old plays hud by dint of new talent'and general retouch ing galvanize them into success. Mr. Brady is plainly a factor to becountedin tbe managerial World. EEPBUB2T JOIIKS. Tho Programme. The Bijon Theater will this week present to its patrobs as a star that funny man Bobby Gaylor, in William A Brady's production of "An Irish Arab." Heretofore Mr. Gaylor bas only been seen in variety companies, where be bas been a very bright light. He bas humor of the spontaneous kind, and never falls to elicit roars of laughter from, his auditors. Reports from tbe East and West where tho play has been done, however, indicate that both the star and the company have made an unquali fied bit. "An Irish Arab" Is Lester Wallack's old comedy, "The Veteran," rewritten' to fit Mr: Gaylor, who has tho low comedy role of O'Flanagan. The production will be given under tbe personal supervision or Mr. Brady, and will be a pretentious one, that celebrated artist, Mr. Harley Merry; having painted the five-act sets of scenery used. The cast is i strong one and as follows: ARABS. O'Fl-an-ag-an, Grand Vizier of Myra Bobbr Gaylor Sultan of Myra D. C. Deal Mohammed, an Arab chlel. D. C. Murray Mustapba Monhad. Jobn ti. Marble Hassa Noureddln Fred Mayer U'UIor, aC'anuch Joe Utt Amlneu, a sister to Mohammed. .Miss Marie Bene bulntre, the Sultan's favorite. Miss .Lottie Hagan CHBISTIA2TS. Colonel Bransoombe, of the English army..... ,.,...,.,.,.. James M. Ward Jack llranseombe. Ills son. ..Clarence Handyslde Edward, bis nephew James M. Bropby Colonel Denton V. L.. Frailer Captain Morton Frank Thompson Blanche Wilson, the Colonel's protege ,..., Miss Jessie Utory Mrs-MoSbake.... Miss Carrie Clark-Ward During the tbird act a magnificent acrobatic act is presented by tbe famous three brothers La Martine. This performance bas created a perfect furor in every city. Their feats are said to be really astonishing. Mr. Gaylor and his company of players will surely be greeted by a very large bouse, for the advance sale of seats is tbe biggest that tbe Bijou bas bad this season, and there is no doubt, if all the reports we have beard or the merits of "Au Irish Arab" prove correct, that many nights during the en gagement that standing loom will be at a pre mium. Orr Monday night Louis Aldricb comes to the Grand Opera House for one week with bis new play called "The Editor." The reputation Mr. Aldrich has established is pretty generally understood.. As an impersonator of the manly, straight-forward, faithful heroes of the "West ern Drama" he has won considerable fame. His performance of Bartley Campbell's hero in "My Partner"' played an important paTtin bringing to public notice the dead dramatist's great power as a playwright. On the coming occasion be will present a new character to the stage, a far Western editor. He is "go-aheada-tive," emphatic, irrepressible and somewhat rough, but manly and earnest. The play itself is a comedy. "The Editor" was first produced last spring at Palmer's Theater, New York, again at Philadelphia and Boston, In each of which cities Mr. Aldrich's impersonation of tbe Arizona editor, Colorvel Jonn Hawkins; was received with many signs of popular favor. The engagement is for one weekwltb Wednes day and Saturday matinees; The Clipper Theater offers Sun's New Phantasma and Burlesque Company this week, Tbe Louisville Post, September 2, 1800, said: A crowded house witnessed the first per formance of Sun'r New Phantasma and Bur lesque Company last evening at tho Bucking ham Theater. The show is one of the best of the variety order that bas been seen here this year. George Sun's fine feats of juggling ex cited tbe admiration and wonder of tbe audi ence, and Jobn Cobum's black-face turn was another excellent feature. Alice Kingslcy made a very clever male impersonator, and J. H. Murtha and Jessie Lake gave a very inter esting musical sketch. The remainder of the company is up to the standard. WHEN it is said that Tony Pastor's company is the attraction at Harry Williams' this week the public knows pretty definitely that the best in the vaudeville line is to be seen at the Academy, The great English music hall singer, Miss Bessie Bonehlllr who made such a hit in New York last year, is the star of the company, but there is a great deal of talent In the pro gramme beside-) ber. Mile. Beatrice is a mar velos contortionist? Miss Maggie Cline has not a superior as a character singer, and the com pany is strong in comedians. Mr. Tony Pastor himself will sing, at every performance. Dop.E Davidson and Ramie Austen will make their appearance before a-Pittsburg au dience to-morrow at Harris' Theater in the hishly emotional drama of "Guilty Without Crime," The play is au adaptation of Miss M. E. Braddnn's intensely dramatic novel of "Au rora Floyd," and the work ot fitting It for stage representation bas been effectively and thoroughly done. Other Amusements. Haebt Davis' pretty Fifth Avenue Museum wilt certainty presenta unique entertainment for tne coming week. A genuine Japanese village is indeed a novelty. Dai Nippon and his troupe are termed "Oriental art missionaries." Tbcv transform the house into a semblance of a Japanese village. A street j shown and on either side are booths at which Japanese arti sans are at work. Some paint on silk and satin; others work with bamboo, making easels, taWca and chairs. Another paints on chihaf one makes toys and tops, one embroiders, and the entire show is not only amusing but instructive. ICanoska, a real Japanese maiden, holds high tea, and after making tbe tea In true Oriental style dispenses it to lady visitors. All the work is done under the eye ot the visitor, and those who have looked at the village say that id's the most novel exhibition of the kind ever witnessed It is undoubtedly an entertainment that will be of snecial interest to ladies and children, Severa'l souvenir days are to be Introduced by Manager Darts', and every one will fiave an op portunity to obtain some of the article that are brought into existence under their eyes. Mr. Davis evidently believes in giving hH pa trons plenty for their money, and in addition to the proposed Village will have meritorious musical attraction on the Roof Garden in addi tion to the many inanimate features' that can be seea there. On the parlor stage of the thea torluro there will bo an exceptionally stronar performance. Howe and Doyle head thef bill in their latest novelty en titled the "Power of Music," and the Gleason children, two verv yonng Comedians, aro said to be clever. The Welches, Drew's Blaek Art, and many other foituTes complete a full hour's entertainment, Tne manager of this house said he would present entertainment for ladies and children, and the diversity of tbe-features ho is giving dearly indicate that he IS conscientiously keeping bs word. The World's Museum offers an' entire change of bill, and among tho new attractions are Syf ivestet Croolee, who bangs bfmself by tho neck as often as desired; Prof. Wallace, who can imt tate tbe songsters of the grove so well that he s called the "Man-blrdf tbe Martin Sisters, Albinos of great personal charms: Edward and Louise Lorrett. who produce wondeTfnl pict ures, and Prof. Barbour, who will in troddce the public, through his stereoptlcan, to views of in. foresting place, and portraits of famous men and women in tne Old and New World, Besides these curiosities, which are well fitted to please ladies and children, there wtll be a performance in the theator, lasting for an hour or more, by the AU-Star World's Specialty Company. Ftage Whisper. Richard Maksmeld has advertised to sell all his antiquities and articles da vertaat auction next month. THEDuquesne Theater Is rising surely and J not very slowly now. The contractors think" they can have it finished by November. Mah-ager Haert Davis bit upon' a novel icfiehie to' advertise his Japanese village by giving away genuine Japanese' handkerchiefs.; Harry Wim-iams' new theater, which wilf be built" by this time next" year, will be" called tbe Gaiety.' It will be one of the handsomest" In the country. We are to have Emma Abbott at the Bijou October 6. The Bijou folks then bave De Wolf Hopper, "The ea King" and "The Merry Monarch" to follow before January. There is a Iiniit beyond wblch tbe seeker of free advertising cannot decently go. Lillian Lewis transgressed it when she had herself photographed In A coffin in" Washington last week. Sitart Robson still nurtures hislove of rare Old books. Tbo other day he bought a copy of Doran's "Annals of the Stage" that once be- longed to George P.Elder. It was an extra Il lustrated copy and cost 300. Nat Goorjtviif is in New Yore, looking tbe plctnre of health. He begins bis season in the' Northwest. October 6, and will produce Leander Richardson's play, "The Nominee," at Hooley's Theater, October 20. The New York Sun said on Thursday last: At the People's Bobby Gaylor is repeating In "An Irish Arab," the popular success he won at the Grand a fortnight ago: Everybody In the Bowery became Gaylor's admirer long ago. The Rev. Virgil MaxeyV ari Evan gelist, well known in the South, is actually go--ing to carrv'ont his intention of combining act-" ing with preaching. Tbe tour will begin next week in "The New Magdalen," Mr. Maxey ap pearing' as the stage clergyman. Julian Qrey. OtrvEK Byron, the Plunger. Kate Byron, the Widow Clover, and a carefully selected company will present Byron's latest and great-' est success. "Tbe Plunger." at tha Bijou week of September 29. The latter part of the week, boweverrbe will present "Across the Conti nent." - Jerome K. Jerome is 80 years of age. He was an actor for" a couple of years before attaining bi3 majority, and thenhe be came a reporter, author and playwright "Bar bara," "Sunset," "Fennel" and The Malster of Woodbarrow" constitute his list of acted pieces. The name "Albambra" ought to be tegarded with distrust by fire insurance companies, says the New York Tribune. There is no end to the theaters and concert balls so-called that have been burned within the last few years. Tne partial destruction' of the old palace itself completes a long run of ill-luck. WrLMAM Fletjeon was pleased with the cast of tbo "Clemonceau Case." and on Monday he ingenuously applauded their efforts from one of the boxes. Some of the spectators were cruel enough- to think that he was bestowing approDation on nis own woric, ana one cynical observer remarked: "Seel The adapter is try ing to call himself ont." A M. Palmer and Augustin Daly are the only metropolitan managers who have costly libraries of books On tbe stage. Lester Wal lack never bad even a big Shakespeare in his library. Francis Wilson has a lot of standard books in plain bindings. "They're plain, juit Quaker books," said he the other day. "But I'm a Quaker by birth myself.'!. Ro'bert Monroe, the energetic manager of "My Aunt Bridget," which is now playing to crowded houses at the Bijon Theater, Now York City, is to be congratulated on tbe strength of bis company. Nellie Rosebud, the new soubrette, is said to be better than anyone who has ever played the role before. Charles Fostello is a new addition to the company, and he is said to have made a wonderful hit. James Harrison Meade's quiet marriage was a surprise to the army of theatrical people who knew him ara veteran of veterans, a dar ing speculator and a wise manager. Thirty years ago he was the husband of the lamented Lucille Western, then a pretty girl of only 17, hot already a dasblng actress in "The Three Fast Men," Meade managed her tours for many years. Of late he has been associated with David Henderson, of Chicago, in Various spectacular productions. David Christie Murray, the novelist re cently appeared on the stage at Dunedin, New Zealand. An actor had failed to come to the theater In time, and tbe brilliant story teller took his place on tbe spur ot the moment ex temporizing most of his "lines." The Sydney critics say be is so delighted with his success that be will hereafter seek fame as an actor, in addition to that which' he bas attained as a writer. Altogether, Murray's recent doings hire savored of the eccentric. AS idea of tbe magnitnde of the production which Messrs. Locke & Davis are to give their spectacular drama, "Claudius Nero," at Nil'lo's, in October; may be gleaned from the fact that the stages- of three city theaters are now being used in preparing for the presenta tion; one for rehearsing the 400 auxiliaries, another for tbe rehearsals of the cast proper and a tbird for the use of carpenters, sceno painters and property men. In addition to this the projectors of "Nero" have seenred a build ing to be given over ttf the manufacture of cos tumes and other incidental accessories to the elaborate production. Good soubrettes are not overplentifnl There are many who call themselves sou brettes, but who are so only in name. They can't sin?, dance' or act Good, soubrettes, with voices and neat hosiery, command from STotoSlOO a week.

Van mnl- TCiectrn Rnrrcisn. 502 Penn ave.. Pittsbursr. Superfluous halrls an excessive growth of hair seen mostly on the upper lip, 'chin, cheeks, throat, nose, ears, forehead, between the eye-l brows, arms, hands and breast, also crows in thick tuf ta from moles and birthmarks. This jrrowth of facial hair Is surprisingly prevalent. We see it in the chnrch, drawing room, on thesirect, and wherever ladies congregate. At least one-third of our ladies are troubled with this obnoxious crowtb. , ,.., ,.,.., Can you conceive of any facial blemish that 13 more distressing, an fiOVInana humiliating to a sensitive, refined lady than a growth of faeia) hair, a noticeable dark line on the upper Up, or a tuf t of coarse hairs on chin and throat? Everv lady with balr on her face knows that tbe use of depilatories, heated wax, tbe tweezers, scissors aud razor all make these hairs grow coarser, darker and more numerous. Remember Ibis, depilatory pow ders or liquids only cut the hairs off at the surface and always stimu late the growth, so that a lady mljbt just as well shave as to use them. There Is only one meithod in the world by which hair can be de stroyed and that is bv the KLECTR1C-NEEDLE OPERATION', as per-fnri.ilBvtr.J.VanDrck.EIectriSiireeon.53'JPoiinavehue,Plttsbnr!r. This is a purely scientific operation and Is indorsed by all physicians and surgeons of emi nence as belnc tlio only method in the world by which the follicle can be destroyed so the hair can never ffiow aeain. The electric needle is painlessly inserted into the hair follicle and destroys the little bulb or sack from whirli tho hair crows. Dr. Van Dyck is pleased to state to the ladles of Pittsburn and vicinity that he is perma nently located in this city and devotes several hours daily to the permanent removal of superflu ous hair by the electric needle, which is done without paiu. scar, shock, trace or injury. Dr. VmDyek was the first physician in tho world to successfully perform tbis operation; has op erated for 15 years: bas treated hundreds of cases, and bas acquired the skill and national rep utation as an expert In electro-surgery. He numbers among his patients many of our most prominent ladies. His pratlce is extensive and widespread; ladies come to him from every part of the country to get rid Of this unsightly growth of hair. Remember tbis. ladies, no matter what tbo condition of your case may be. whether you have a few scattering hairs on 3 our face or a thoroughly developed beard, as sure as you now lire you can have every hair destroyed from your f?.ce forever by the electric needle by consulting Dr. Van Dyck, bnt unless you have them destroyed by this method vou will carry ihem to the grave with you. Stop using all outward applications and consult Or. Van Dyck at once and have them destroyed forever.
