Colds, Croup, Eczema, Piles and Skin Diseases Yield to Remarkable New Discovery. The nerves of your body are like electric wires. They carry the nerve energy (neuro-electricity) which is generated in the brain, to all the cells and tissues. The nerve sheaths are insulated to re sist a current of about 4-1000 of a volt as has been proven with the aid of Lord Kelvin's galvanometer, an instrument so sensitive and ac curate that for the first time it is now possible to measure the strength of nerve currents. It has been found that wherever acute inflammation occurs the in sulation of the nerves is broken down, making it difficult, and often impossible, for nature to heal the surrounding cells. Germs cannot live in healthy tissue; it is only through damaged cells that they There's no hocus-pocus nor leger de-main in the popularity of KING OSCAR . 5c CIGARS.

Saturday, matinee and night, December 9—"The Prince of Pllsen." Monday evening. December 11 "The German Fatherland," with Burton Holmes. MAJESTlC—Vaudeville. COLONlAL—"American Aristocracy." REGENT—"The Intrigue." VICTORIA—"The Common Law." Leopold Godowsky, one of the great est pianists, who comes to the Orpheum Theater as the third num leopold ber of Gayle Burlingame's (Sodowalcy Musicale Course, is inex pressibly saddened by the death of the Emperor of Austria-Hun gary, the late Franz Josef. Godowsky was signally honored by the great mon- i arch by being elected to (111 as pianlst pedagogue, one of the most important positions to be offered to one of his profession. The Austrian court is notably proud and exclusive and it was no easy posi tion that Godowsky had to till. But he succeeded and won honor upon honor. The appointment of so young a man as Godowsky—he is in his early forties— to the post of head of the Master School for Piano and Theory at the Vienna Imperial Royal Academy, came as a great triumph and postulated in Godow sky the gigantic intellect and experi ence adequate to a reaching out over the entire field of his spoclal knowl edge of his art, which is more than con siderable. So it will be seen that in Godowsky there conies to Harrisburg a pianist who has won the foremost approbation of Europe as well as America. He will be aided in his program by Miss Belle Story, a charming and beautiful Ameri can prima donna with a voice of won derful range and sweetness. "The Prince of Pilsen," famous for Its witty dialog, pretty music, elaborate stage settings, and beau "The Prince tiful girls, will be seen at of l'llscn" the Orpheum, Saturday. matinee and evening. This extraordinary musical comedy is a Pixley and Luders masterpiece that has charmed the entire world with its many alluring features, and is to-day one of the most welcome attractions offered by theater maangers through out the country. The revival this sea son comes here wltn a splendid cast, which is headed by Charles Home, in the role of Hans Wagner, the Cincin nati brewer, a part that has made fame in this country and abroad, and Miss Estella Birney as the charming widow, "Mrs. Crocker." For the fourth subject in his annual series of Burton Holmes travelogs, be ingdelivered here | "The Fatherland." personally by Mr. WIH llurton Holmes Holmes, he has chosen The Ger man Fatherland"—a delightful recount ing of Mr. Holmes' experiences in that wonderful country of efficiently gov erned cities, quaint towns and villages which still retain the impress of the artistic crafts of former generations, and the lovely countryside where are to be found honest country folk, clean and comfortable inns, plenty of good food and smiling, courteous service. From the palaces and parks of Berlin to the "Passion Play," at Oberammergau and from the study of the personality on the screen of the Kaiser and that ol Anton Lang, who played the part of "Christus" in the "Passion Play,", is a no greater variety than is to be found in all the incidents of his travelogs de voted to "The German Fatherland." Mr. Holinea will give "The German Fatherland" at the Orpheum Theater on Monday evening, at 8:15 o'clock. "Hello Honolulu." which calls in the efforts of nine muhical comedy play ers, is the headliner Musical Coiacdy at the Majestic Thea nt Majestic ter the last half of this week. Many fa orable reports have been received con cerning this act, and wherever it has played, it has proved a very entertain ing musical comedy offering. An addea attraction on the bill is Heager and Goodwin, two men, who introduce some singing and piano playing. Completing the list of acts are: Jarvis and Harrison, young couple in a clever comedy play let, entitled "Shooting the Chutes;" Thomas and Henderson, in comedy songs and dances, and the Yamamota Brothers, two Japs, in a sensational wire act. "The Intrigue." which had its first showing at the Regent yesterday, is a. war film, built I.enore I'lrieh at around the attempts Hegent Today of certain European nations to acquire control of a death-dealing wireless de vice invented by an American. "The Intrigue" will be shown to-day for the last time. Miss Lenore Ulrich. as the "Countess Sonia." has the leading role. She acts with the restraint that Is characteris tic of a genuine artist, and at all times she is master of her part. Miss Ul rich's splendid acting as the "Countess." disguised first as an immigrant and ! then as a servant girl, seldom has been equalled on the screen. The ancient New England supersti tion against witches Is selected as the theme for Fannie Ward's next starring vehicle, "Witchcraft," tinder the Jesse L Lasky management. "Purity." the sensational photoplay to be seen the first three days of next week, is in distinct contrast to the usual feature production. The star, Miss Audrey Munson, has in this picture achieved her second important success as a photo player. Douglas Fairbankks' newest play, "American Aristocracy," which was shown at the nousla* Fairbanks Colonial Theater at the Colonial yesterday, lived up to all expecta tions .and the inimitable star more than pleased his many admirers. The plav is filled with the usual thrills found in all Fairbanks plays, and its odd love romance is somewhat different from the usual love story, and is interestins and amusing. The added attraction of the program is the latest Pathe News and a two-reel drama, "The Nation's Peril." For Friday and Saturday, an extraordinary drama from the Ince studios, entitled "Jim Grimsby's Bov," will be the feature attraction, starring Frank Keenan and Enid Markey. The plav is said to be one of the most unique and interesting ever turned out by the Triangle-Kaybee studios. Keenan has the part of a rough, rugged gold miner, who wants a son and whose wife dies in giving him a daughter. En raged at fate's trick, lie tries to raise the girl as a boy, but "girls is girls," as the father has to learn before the picture is over. A new two-reel Key stone comedy will be on the same pro gram. The Reimers-Leginska concert will I be the third number of the Keystone Concert Course, at the Keystone Chestnut Street Audlto- Mufticfil lium, Thursday evening, Course December 14. Beyond question Paul Reimers Is America's foremost lieder tenor, and Kthei Irf-srinska is undisputably the world's greatest woman pianist. They come here, like the other artists of the Keystone Course, fresh from New York engagements, where Leginska especial ly was given wonderful receptions at the hands of the metropolitan critics. Of Leglnska the Berlin Tageblatt says in her concerts there she "showed all the splendor of a Carrono, and her work is tremedously interesting." Thb Vienna Tageblatt said: "She fairly lives in her playing: her originality "has a charm beyond comparison." and spirited Interpretations of Chopin, Liszt and Beethoven compositions are higfhlv In teresting to music students especially. Paul Reimers came to this countrv a few years ago with an established reputation, and has become even more popular here than in Europe. The con cert will be In the Chestnut Street Au ditorium, as usual, and the regular course prices will nrevail, except in the case of piano pupils.
