plcaaed the audience tthlch eUdenccd Its ap

company was exceedingly well balanced and the
play was aplcndldly staged.
Mlu Vane as Glory Quayle rjave a thorough In
telligent Interpretation of the tola of Catne'l
merry, Unable Manx girl. The development of
th latter1! character from tliat of the thought
less, happy, hojdtnUli daughter ot an old coun
try pan.011 to a woman matured by actual
contact with the men and Hie of London, nai
strongly brought out by Ml Vane, whose Por
tugal of the part was on the whole more pleas
ing than that ot Mkt Ellslcr. In tho strong
scenes In the second and third acts he did
especially nell, and with Mr. Kolker nas called
before tho curtain nt the close of the strong
scene in Glory's apartments.
Mr. Kolker la a robust young actor of pleasing
pretence and did splendid work as John Storm,
the role originated by Kdward Morgan. Tha part
is a strong one and affords much opportunity
for real acting, and lut night's John Storm
fully realized the possibilities of the role. In
his scenes with Glory in the second and third
acts Ids work a particularly effective. The
gnat climax in Glory's apartments in the third
net was well brought and throughout the burn.',
both Mr. Kolker' and Mlu Vane's efforts were
particularly forcible, the former' eyea gleaming
nnd his voice trembling with all the fenor of
the frantic priest, goaded to desperation by
slander and persecution, while as Glory, M'is
Vane spiritedly acted the port of the woman
trying to defend herself by womanly arildee
and femalo strategy, and miking him who
came to kill, leae and love.

The curtain dta loses jouiig Oliver Wit and
his wife, Gertrude, in their home quarreling,
and then making up again and again, for no
cause except over-seusltlvcnew in trllles. The wife

he wilt not receive all the iontilf ration his
devotion merits. The icmnti lave taken notice
cf these constantly recurring squabbles, for tin-y
always moan "nights out" for them when the

wish to enjoy tliemlvcs. and a

Is a storm, for the wife demands an expljnt
tiou of tho blonde hair. Lc can't give it, and
she hastens away to her parcnu, determined to
get a legal separation. In the meantime the
old folks are seen quietly nt home, living in
perfect reace and comfort. Ueally old Weather
by has nothing to annoy him except a meddle
some Irish suvant. A Spanish widow is a
hoarder, and the oilen assists them at a hand
of whist. This calm is disturbed by warning
of the coming storm. At their wits ends what
to do lor their children they resolic to do
what they have seen advised In a book, and
pretend to quauel, that the young people might
see Its absurdity.
When the angry young wife and husband ar

Is very funny, but it ends in a pictty touch
of pathos ween the old couple steal stealthily
hack Into tho room alter an angry drpirture
for different bed-ciumbers and llss good night.
The final af.t sees the quauel between the par

daughter, who has nc-cd out tomo old story
connecting her father with the Spanish widow.
However, serious trouble is avoided and all enils
happily.
The Devil on Earth,
The appearance and pranli of the devil on

A New Discovery, but Not a Patent
Medicine.
Dr. Itedwell relates an interesting
account ot what he considers a re
markable cane of acute stomach
trouble and chronlo dyspepsia by the
use of the new discovery, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says: "The patient was a man
who had suffered, to my knowledge,
for years with dyspepsia. Everything:
he ate seemed to sour and create
cases In the stomach. He had pains
like rheumatism in the back, shoulder
blades and limbs, fullness and din
tress after eatlnft. poor appctlto and
loss of flesh; the heart became affect
ed, causing palpitation and sleepless
ness at night.
"I Ravo hhn powerful nerve tonics
and blood remedies, but to no purpose.
Ah an experiment I-finally bought a
50-cent package of Stuart's Dyspep
sia Tablets nt a drur store and gave
them to him Almost Immediate re
lief wns given and after he had used
four boxes he was to all appenrances
fully cured.
"There was no more acidity or sour,
watery risings, no bloating after
meals, the appetite was vigorous and
he had gained between 10 sand 12
pounds In weight of solid, healthy
flesh.
"Although Stuart's Dyepopslru Tab
lets aro advertised and sold In drug
stores, yet I consider them a most
valuable addition to any physicians
line of remedies, as they are perfectly
harmless and can be given to children
or Invalids or in any condition of tho
stomach, with perfect safety, being
harmless and containing nothing but
fruit and vegetable essence?, pure pep
sin and Golden Seal.
"Without any question, they are tho
safest, most effective cure for Indi
gestion, biliousness, constipation and
nil derangements of the stomach, how
ever slight or severe."

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications si they cannot reach the
diseased portion of Ihe ear. There is only one
way to cure' deafness, and that Is by constilu.
tlonal remedies. Deafness is caused by an in.
flamed condition of the mucesys lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this lube is inflamed
you havi a rumbling sound or Imperfect heating,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness Is the re.
suit, and unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to iu normal condi
tion, hcariiif wilt- be destroyed forever! nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, vvldch Is
nothing but an Inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
