"An American Hobo" Coming. "An American Hobo" is the striking title of a new play by E. E. Kidder, the well-known author who wrote "A Poor Relation," "Peaceful Valley" and other plays which attained considerable fame. The play is offered by the veteran manager, U. D. Newell, and is a story of American life portrayed by American characters, and told in a quick," sparkling way, full of strong dramatic climaxes brisk dialogue and brilliant comedy. The central idea concerns the defrauding of a life insurance company by a rascal named Job Barrett. Both the idea and treatment are absolutely new and original, if such things can truthfully be said in dramatic writing today. Job Barrett insures his wife's life for $20,000, and then by his scheming lays claim she died. He has, however, stupefied her with powerful drugs and keeps her a close prisoner in the top garret 01 his house where no one ever visits ex cept himself. He then substitutes a body, the face of "which has been destroyed and the body is buried as his wife's and he collects the $20,000 from the insurance company. His step-daughter, a little girl of four teen, the child of the ill-treated wife, 11 x. ii. j.: A is away at scnooi ai uns nme uuu. knows nothing of her mother' being alive, being forbidden to go upon the upper f'oor of the house where the victim is secreted. The suspicions of a detective connected with the insurance company, named Warren Wade, are aroused, and wTith the assistance of the woman's child, a little girl named Flo, and his friend Barker, and a quaint character, a tramp called "Happy Jack," he discovers the unfortunate woman secreted in the attic, being treated to slow poison, and, after an exciting series of adventures, restores her to her daughter and friends, and metes out the proper punishment to Barrett and his accomplice, an adventuress who has agreed to marry him and fly tto foreign lands with the $20,000 defrauded from the life insurance company. The character of "Happ; Jack" is a most novel and quaint conceit. lie is an ex-circus performer, the death of his wife and chile having robbed him of all his -tion until he becomes, as he expresses it, a common, ordinary American hobo, one like you read of in the funny papers that is a standing joke to everyone but themselves. This interesting story is told with pleasing specialties, with wholesome comedy by "Happy Jack" and the comedy Irish woman named Delia Dooley. whose bright lines keep the audience in continuous good humor throughout the entire evening's entertainment. Gennett theater Saturday matinee and night. Popular prices. "The Fortune Teller." Musical comedy and comic opera productions are on the increase every season and this year many new ones have been made as well as several important revivals. One of the latter which will come to the Gennett theater Friday, February 12th, is ' "" The Fortune Teller." This opera made Alice Nielsen famous and the proOften leads to poverty. No real woman ever sold her heart for the luxuries of life. But many a woman who has gladly faced poverty for the man she loved, may well doubt her wisdom when pain becomes the mate of poverty. If she were rich, she thinks, she could find a way of cure. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is within the reach of every one. It lifts the burden of pain which weighs down those who suffer from womanly diseases. It establishes regularity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. "You have my heartfelt thanks for your kind dvice to me," writes Mrs. Geo. Fletcher, of 106 Victoria Avenue, Gait, Ontario. Was troubled with catarrh of uterus for over a year. The doctors said I would have to go through an operation, but I "commenced to use Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and 4 Golden Medical Discovery, ' also his ' Lotion Tablets and 'Antiseptic and Healing Suppositories. Now I am completely cured, after using six bottles of Dr. Pierce's medicines. I am glad to say his medicine has made me a new woman " Weak and sick women, especially those suffering from diseases of long standing, are invited to consult Dr. Pierce by letter, free. All correspondence is held as strictly private and sacredly confidential. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are easy i and pleasant to take.

8 PRETTY WOMEN LOVE Admiration and They Admire fc . STRONG MEN. That Rejuvenating Tonic Called VITONA makes men strong and makes women pretty. Vitoxa also makes women strong and enhances masculine beauty. Beauty is only skin deep and Vitona makes the skin pretty. An observant physician can tell by the appearance of the skin whether or not a person is in good health. If health is perfect the skin proves it. Vitona vitalizes, tones up and restores good health, simply because it influences conditions that maintain life. Vitona makes the blood circulate and makes it pure, aids digestion, strengthens the nerves, cures weak kidneys, catarrh of the urethra, sore flesh, pain, etc. Many a husband and wife have grown more fond of each other since taking Vitona, for where there is love there must be life.

John L.McKee,of Athens, O., writes ; "My wife and I owing to stagnant blood, indigestion, weak kidneys, etc., had been in poor health for quite a while. We both tried catarrh, kidney, liver, nerve, etc., medicine, but only got worse. My wife's sister wrote her to try Vitona. We both did so and I would not think such a.change of feeling possible, but Vitona acted almost miraculously. I would willingly give ten dollars for a bottle if I could not buy it for less." Vitona costs one dollar a bottle or six bottles for five dollars, and while The Vitona Co, Coshocton, O.will continue to send it by express prepaid on receipt of price it is now obtainable in this County For sale by Alford Drug Co. duction cost something over forty thousand dollars. It is being presented this season under the management of Messrs. Milton and Sargent Aborn. The opera is in three acts and is the work of Harry B. Smith and Victor Herbert. The company numbers sixty people, including a chorus which contains many pretty girls and who have voices as well. The most prominent characters are in the hands of Miss Edna Bronson, Miss Grace Orr Myers, Miss May Emory, Robert Lett, Phil Branson, Herman Hirshberg and Edward S. Metcalfe. "The Isle of Spice." "The Isle of Spice" Avas a great success in Chicago, where it had a vogue of nearly 200 nights. The original $30,000 production will be seen here for the first time on Tuesday, February 9th at the Gennett theater. In its catchy music, pretty costumes and opportunities for clever come uians, it was said to be a typical Gaiety piece, with a touch of spectacle and melodrama matter. What it's all about doesn't much matter; those who have seen Mr. Whitney's productions know pretty well what to expect a story that will carry the principals in and out of well known places, changes of costumes galore, a bewildering maze of colors in scenery and dresses, abundance of merry music and stirring choruses, and the comedians given full swing in their fun making:. The Exchange Habit. "I took back those socks that wouldn't fit Willie." "The ones you said you'd change?" "Yes. And that odious Jim Crampton waited on me. He asked me how long I had kept the socks, and I answered about two weeks. And what do you think he said?" "Give it up." "He said I ought to change 'em oftener." Cleveland Plain Dealer. Of No I'emnoal Benefit. "That physician is wonderfully wise. No matter what jour illness is, he can tell you the name of the germ that caused it and what will cure it." "But I understand he is not going out of his house." . "lie can't. lie has a cold and a sore finger and a touch of dyspepsia, not to mention an attack of rheumatism." Washington Star. COLLEGE AND SCHOOL. In London the schools are so crowded that sixty pupils per teacher is the average. The fees charged foreigners In many of the schools of Germany have been increased. In some institutions they are now double those charged Germans. Captain John Anderson, U. S. A., of Belchertown. Mass., has been detailed as professor of military science and tactics at the Massachusetts Agricultural college. The number of theological students has been reduced one-third at Princeton. At Andover it has been reduced from 100 to 15. Formerly a Yale class of 300 would graduate GO ministers, but last year it turned out only 4. COLOMBIA.
