Fruit Is Healthful.
The recelpes given by Miss Cross
yesterduy Included fruits In each pre
paration, and preceding her demonstra
tions she made some interesting com
ments on fruit us a healthful article
of diet. She considers it almost neces
nary to good health that fruit In season
should bo eaten at least once a day, or
almost ud libitum provided, of course,
that onl one kind of fruit Is eaten
ut a time und that the quantity does
not interfere with the other part of the
meal. Fruit, she says, stlmulutes the
flow of the digestive Juices, keeps the
blood clear and liquid and tones the
nerves. The fact that In southern
climes the natives BUbsist almost en
tirely upon It makes argument almost
superlluous.
Some Recipes Given.

BRODIE AS AN ACTOR.
He Drew u Largo Audience to tho Academy
of Music.
If -the ability of un actor Is to be
gauged by the size of his audience,
then Steve Drodle deserves to rank
among the foremost exponents of dra
matic art. He produced "On the Bow
ery" at the Academy of Music last
night with himself us the central llgure
and was greeted by one of the largest
audiences of the season. There were
few vacant seats In the house nnd
many persons occupied the standing
room.
It can be said In favor of "On the
Bowery" that it Is a very faithful rep
resentation of life In that famous part
of New York. The characters are in
the main overdrawn, but they give
some Idea of the people who live nnd
have their being in and adjacent to the
Broadway of 'the East Side of New
York.
In the second act, the scene of which
is laid at Brodie's saloon on the Bow
ery, -the redoubtable Steve is In Ms
element and handles whiskey bottles
and beer glasses with an ease that was
only obtainable by long experience be
hind the bar.
The piece Is well staged, and the
scenery und -mechanical effects ure In
teresting features of the performance.
AN INTERESTING DRAMA.
Coon Hollow Will He IicpcutcdThls After
noon and evening.
"Coon Hollow," a comedy-drama, the
scene of which is laid' in Tennessee, was
produced at the Frothlngham last
night under the auspices of Scranton
conclave, Order of Heptusophs. There
is un Interesting plot, which Is enliv
ened by a number of startling climaxes
that are led 'up to in a natural manner.
The scenic and mechanical effects in
troduced ur of a now and novel char
acter. Exciting ond thrilling climaxes In the
play are the -bursting of a dam in Coon
Hollow and a steam boat race between
the Robert E. Lee and Natchez.
The company that produced "Conn
Hollow'" Is a capable one. Among
those who sustained their parts in an
excellent manner were: C. E. Dudley,
Walter Kelly, Lester Lonergan, W. Q.
Ingram, Floy Crowell and Louise Ham
ilton. The drama will be produced at the
Frothlngham again this ufternoon and
evening.

Admit Its efficacy.
The Interest taken In the almost mirac
ulous cures by Dr. Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy, at Athens, N. Y., and other
places, resulted In the Albany, N. Y.,
Journal sending u special representative
to Athens to Investigate the cases, mid It
was found that muny of the cures mude
by the medicine were simply wonderful.
In the enses of Mr. Lewis Clow, who
hud chronic kidney disease, .Mrs. Casper
Brooks suffering rrom female troubles,
and Mrs. Wm. Tiffuny, who suffered from
general prostration, nil of these cases
were abandoned by their attending physi
cians. Dr. David Kennedy's Fuvorite
ltemedy was then used by them and In
every case un absolute cure was effected.
At Davis' Next Week.
Jessie Mae Hall, who Is the bright
particular star In "A Iturrel of Money," Is
one of the best singers and most graceful
dancers that ever uppeared on the Amer
ican stage. Being a thorough adept In
all branches of comedy and making a
particular study of characters In real life
that she may assume on the stage, makes
her performance a clean, clever rendition
that will be a revelation to the patrons of
Davis' popular family theater on Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday next, after
noons und evenings.

AX EVER BROADENING WORK
Its Pxlstcnco Is a Monument for Many
Philanthropic Citlcns-In Scranton
the Work Will I vciitnully Include
Industrial Trulniug.
There is but a slight conception by
the general public of the enormous
amount of niioney expended by public
seml-oharl table 'Institutions and orga
nizations like the Young Men's Chris
tian association. The casual observer
knows It costs money nnd he has a
crude Idea of the objects of certain in
stitutions, but the actual expense and
the limitless field of operations are
matters entirely foreign to his knowl
edge. The 'Widespread popularity of
Young Men's Christian association, for J
instance, may be comprehended arter a
perusal of the following facts:
One of the requirements which every
Institute must meet in order to com
mand confidence and respect is that Its
business affairs should be discreetly
a-md economically conducted. Men who
give or bequeath their money to chart-'

Millions of Dollars Spent.
Within the past ten years nearly
$12,000,00(1 have been given to the Y'onug
Men's Christian associations of this
country by keen-sighted business men
for the erection and equipment of
buildings for their work. This im
mense sum iwas given in amounts vary
ing from $1.'.0,00U to $5. In the list of
donations there are, many of $50,000 and
$25,0110, and a long list of $10,000 and
$5,000 gifts. Yet this money lias but
laid the foundations for a work which
Is ever growing broader and more far
reaching -in Its beneficent influences,
and one 'which offers the philanthropic
citizens of this country opportunities
to build for themselves enduring monu
ments. There are religious organizations,
athletic and social clubs and educa
cational Institutions, but the Young
Men's Christian Association occupies u
unique position as the first organiza
tion which has ever successfully com
bined and carried on nil four lines of
effort for young men. If the motto
"In union there Is strength," Is true,
"In union is economy," Is none the less
true. So that by the very nature of Its
work the Young Men's Christian asso
elation accomplishes the greatest good
for the least expenditure.
A single Illustration will serve to
prove the truth of this claim: The tin
nuul cost for furnishing twenty weeks
tuition to 20,000 students by 2110 nsso
ciations Is only $2.4:! per capita. It Is
safe to say that with the endowments
which Y'ale or Harvard college pos
sesses the associations would be en
abled to furnish practical education in
commercial or industrial lines to 50,000
students.
The Industrial Problem.
It is becoming more nnd more up
parent to thoughtful men that jiro
vislon for the industrial training of
young men must be made before pres
ent perplexing Industrial problems can
be solved. There are many reasons
why the public schools cannot take
up this work at least fur a time, and
Just here the Young Men's Christian
association stands ready to take up In
dustrial training and curry It on suc
cessfully. The points In favor of the associa
tion's position are as follows: First,
there are many asoselatlon buildings
already erected with spact! fop the
work, as is the case In our city; there
Is a state and International organiza
tion which Would give unity and effec
tiveness to the work: there Is noth
ing narrow or sectarian In the organ
ization which would tend to limit its
Held of usefulness; It Is already on the
field doing guild service In educational
work In all lines; It unites with educa
tlonul work Inlluences which combine
to make "all around" men.
In Scranton on two recent occasions
the subject of Industrial training was
discussed by two of the most promi
nent anil inlluentlnl gatherings of bus!
ness und professional men that ever
assembled in the city. One of theso
gatherings was at 'the residence of
