SHUBERT MURAT THEATER

Richard Walton Tully's Hawaiian romance, "The Bird of Paradise" will be acted next week at the Shu-bert-Murat, Indianapolis, by Bessie Barriscale, Lewis S. Stone, Guy Bates Post, Robert Morris, Howard Hickman, Estar Banks and others to the number of twenty-five. The play is said to possess m^ny novel features—in theme, locale, setting and sentiment. Though recommended for its simplicity, it has a psychological and symbolic drift. The clearest description of it is "a fervid romance, narrating the story of the love of a Hawaiian girl for an American."

The play is said to be an engrossing one. Richard Walton Tully faithfully depicts life in the tropics. The native's side of the white and brown marriage is set forth sympathetically and with understanding.

It is said that the conflict of native mysticism and Anglo-Saxon ideas makes the play. A sprightly and pretty native girl falls madly in love with an American doctor who has come to the Hawaiian islands to study leprosy. Losing all interest in this quest the doctor marries the native woman and a degenerate beachcomber takes the place of the doctor.

The native religion enters here, and the brown wife of the white man begins to make his ways her ways and draws down upon herself the death curse by the Hawaiian Priest. Later, when cast off by her American husband she offers herself to "Pele" as the human sacrifice, and is seen to plunge into the flaming crater of the volcano.

Against this story there is a back ground of native Hawaiian costumes, island politics during the •early revolutionary period in the -early nineties when Grover Cleveland was president and the beautiful tropical scenery along the Puna •coast and near Honolulu.

Bessie Barriscale appears as the native girl and is said to have made a real study of the native Hawaiian, so thoroughly does she exhibit the hot jealousy and passion of the tropics.

One of the most artistic pieces of acting is said to be that of Guy Bates Post in the conversion of a beachcomber into a brisk, alert and bappy worker among the lepers.

The atmosphere of "The Paradise of the Pacific" is further enhanced by the introduction of alluring and wreird melodies of the islands by a band of' native singers and musicians.

"There could be no better medicine than 'Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. My children were all sick with whooping cough. One of them was in bed, had a high fever, and was coughing up blood. Our doctor gave them Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and the first dose eased them, and three bottles cured them' says Mrs. R. A. Donaldson, of Lexington, Miss. For sale by all dealers.

Children Enjoy Birthday Party Mrs. Marshall West, of Maxwell, planned a surprise for her daughter, Miss Marion, Saturday evening, it being the 10th birthday anniversary. A number of friends were invited and to say she was surprised would be putting it mildly. Those who enjoyed the evening were the Misses Mildred Garrett, Isiphene Moore, Flo Cooper, Goldie Bennett, Opal Eakin, Gladys Foxall, Althea Piper, Dorothy Trusner, Ruby Roberts, June Clark, Masler Fred Garrett, Harley Chambers, Lowell Gant, Lorenzo Jackson, Ernest Roberts, Kenneth Roberts, of Maxwell John and Ida Webb, of R. R. 5. Mrs. West was assisted in entertaining the little folks by her daughter, Ruth and Miss Murnie Jacobs, and Miss Vera Bissell.

Is your husband cross? An irritable, fault-finding disposition is often due to a disordered stomach. A man with good digestion is nearly always good natured. A great many have been permanently cured of stomach trouble by taking Chamberlain's Tablets. For sale by all dealers.

A Paying Crop

Earl Talbert, who lives on his father's farm, thrashed five acres of German Millet last week, which made 47 bushels per acre. He paid $2 per bushel for the seed, and should he be able to get that much when he sells the grain, the five acres would yield $570. The straw was thrashed in the barn and it makes mighty good feed.—Morristown Sun.

Don't waste your money buying -strengthening plasters. Chamberlain's Liniment is cheaper and better. Dampen a piece of flannel with it and bind it over the affect'€d parts and it will relieve the pain jand soreness. For sale by all dealers.

GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 7, 1912

OBITUARY

Rachel C. Wright was born in Hamilton county, Indiana, Nov. 14, 1846. She was called to her Heavenly home October 26, 1912, age 65 years, 11 months and 12 days.

She wras united in marriage to James M. Wright. To this union were born two sons and four daughters. The husband, one son and one daughter have preceded her to the better world.

With her companion and family she resided in Hamilton and Madison counties until 1877, when they went to McCordsville, where she has had her residence ever since.

She was a charter member of the local order of Eastern Star, and has ever been a faithful and highly esteemed sister, none being more devoted to the needs of her fraternal friends than she.

When about 16 years of age she gave her heart to God, and became a member of the Christian church. She never transferred her church relationship, but has been a faithful supporter of the M. E. church of this place since she resided here. Her faith was of a kind that gave all true believers a place in her heart. With true and patient trust in God, she lived her life, and none ever gave to him a more submissive devotion than she.

Quiet and reserved in disposition, she held herself ever ready to be a blessing to all her neighbors and friends. And to her blessed loved ones and the dear children of her own household she expressed her faith by tender evidences of everyday word and deed.

Her one son, three daughters, two grandchildren, one sister and one brother, and a large circle of other loved ones and friends who are left to mourn, can but faithfully submit to the will of the Heavenly Father and thanking Him for their sweet treasure mother calmly say: "Thy Will, Oh, God, be Done."

The funeral was held at the home of the daughter, Mrs. Wm. McCord, Rev. E. J. Wickersham officiating. Services in charge of Eastern Star.

RURAL ROUTE 1.

Corn shucking seems to be the farmers' main occupation now. Coleman Pope and wife and Ellen Duncan took dinner with H. H. Duncan and wife Sunday.

Miss Bernice Jacobs visited her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. James Wilhelm, Saturday night.

William Andis and wife visited his sister and mother near Rush county Sunday.

Jasper Jonas and wife, Cleve Jonas and family visited relatives in Shelby county Monday.

Ollie Nibarger and family visited Jasper Jonas and wife Sunday. Mrs. Unrue, who has been seriously ill, is a little better.

"Tells the Whole Story." To say that Foley's Honey and Tar Compound is best for children and grown persons and contains no opiates, tells only part of the tale. The whole story is that it is the best medicine for coughs, colds, croup, bronchitis and other affections of the throat, chest and lungs. Stops la grippe coughs and has a healing and soothing effect. Remember the name, Foley's Honey and Tar Compound, accept no substitutes. M. C. Quigley.

(Private Car Excursion, Nov. 12.)

THREE-FIFTHS of the people who have settled the West and" South, according to Government statisticians, have come from within one night's ride of Chicago.

TWENTY PER CENT, of the farmers in the corn belt move every year such is the large proportion of farm renters and such is the restlessness among farmers in the older settled agricultural districts, where lands are too high priced and away out of proportion to the earnings of the soil.

SO, it is not to be wondered at that immigration of farmers, land seekers and home seekers steadily increases to the nearby Swigart Tract in the center of Michigan's Fruit Belt, in Mason, Manistee, and Lake Counties, where the good fruits, good potatoes and vegetables and good clover grow.

SIXTY-FIVE PEOPLE filled our private car on our last semimonthly excursion. We have bigger parties, sometimes requiring two cars, but this was a very satisfactory crowd, as they were all out for business, and we had a record breaker from the "standpoint of sales. We use automobiles now to show the lands, so it enables one to see more of this great tract, which, with recent additions, still contains over 50,000 acres.
