At Local Theaters "House of a Thousand Candles. The arpcaranee of "The House of a Thousand Candles" at the (Jennet t Saturday matinee and night promises to be an event decidedly out of the ordinary. The play is a powerful dramatization of the novel of the same name and contains all its interesting episodes and strange characters. There is the mysterious Bates, the man with a past, which will be enacted by George Winn, an actor of rare ability, and who is said to be the Ideal artist for the part. Then there is the vanishing Glcnarm, the daring and spirited young man, the villainous-Pickering, the bright Irishman, Larry Donovan, and the pugilistic preacher. Rev. Dr. Stoddard, the fun loving school girl, Marion Dcvereaux and her equally pert companion Gladys Armstrong. "Polly of the Circus." Frederic Thompson's "Polly of the Circus." with Kdith Speare in the title rolo will be the attraction at tho Gennett tomorrow night. All the life of Polly, a young circus rider has been spent under the round top and in the circus car. She knows no worjd not covered by canvas, nor did her mother. When the play begins the circus tents are pitched on the common adjoining the church and parsonage in a small town. This causes scandal in the burg and the pillars of the church gather at the parsonage to protest to the minister against the sacrilege. Polly Is injured in a fall by her horse and during the performance Is carried Into the minister's house. A motley crew of clowns, riders, acrobats and canvasmen flock to the parsonage where they are well received by the young minister, much to the disgust of tho deacons of the church. The mnilster agrees to care for the girl until she Is well enough to return to the circus and he does care for her. He coon learns that the little circus rider is ignorant. He begins instructing her. He weeds out her wonderful growth of circus slang and teaches her how to read and write and makes her so well contented with her new home that when she fully recovers she does not return to her former sawdust home. Musical Comedy Company. The Gennett theater has secured the Towell and Cohan Musical Comedy company for two holiday weeks commencing with Christmas matinee Monday, December 26. This attraction Is conceded to be the best of all the popular priced organizations and their business over the entire Sommers circuit has been limited only by the capacity of the theaters. Miss Carlo Portello, the star of Mr. Powell's company, is one of the few high class operatic singers who can really acta. Her work and style is so peculiar that the unique title of "pri-ma-comedienne" has been given her. Associated with her is an excellent supporting company containing many people well known in musical comedy. Particular pride Is taken in the chorus work of "The Dancing Pippins." These young ladies combine ability with good looks and their their singing dancing is said

to put. to shame that of many high ' priced musical shows. j

For the opening play Christmas The Beauty and the Banker" will be staged. This play has been adapted from the French by Mr. Powell and will provide a delightful evening's entertainment for the most blase theater goer. During the twelve night engage ment of the organization a matinee j will be given daily at the low price I of ten cents for any seat in the house. These prices of course do not apply to the two holiday matinees, Christmas and New Years, which will be played at the regular night scale of prices, ten, twenty, thirty and fifty cents. "The Flirting Princess." Miss Kulalie Jansen, the prima donna with Harry Bulger in "The Flirting Princess," which is to appear here shortly, iossesses one of the most gifted and sweetest voices ever heard in musical comedy. As well as sweetness, she has exceptional range, the voice having a scope of two and a I half octaves, the register being from low A to high D sharp. Critics claim her one of tho most fascinating women in musical productions. Miss Jansen will be remembered for her exquisite work in vaudeville having had j the leading roles in the "At the Waldorf." "The Country Club," and other headline acts. You want good, pure, wholesome Candies for your Holiday Supplies!

Fihe, the well known druggist, makes such an offer as that, where. Oh, where is the man or woman full of Uric Acid poison, which Is the same as Rheumatism who is going to turn it down? Leo H. Fihe has sold a whole lot of Rheuma these last few months, and if it didn't do as advertised, he could not afford to make the offer. Here is more proof: Porter Smith, Dobbin, W. Va., writes: "I have been a great sufferer from Rheumatism for about 26 years, and the disease had become chronic. I began taking Rheuma with little faith in its virtues, but was better from the first day I began its use, and at this time have no more pains." Feb. 20, 1910. Rheuma never shirks its duty. It begins with the first dose to act on the kidneys, liver, stomach and blood, and to eliminate Rheumatic poison from the whole system. 50 cents at Leo H. Fihe's or mailed by Rheuma Co.. Buffalo, N.

BRAVE POLICEMAN STRANGLES WOLF Animal Jumps from Stage of Theater, Biting Eight People in Audience. (American News Service) New York, Dec. 21. A police hero medal will be asked for Policeman John J. Cosgrove of Brooklyn, who at the risk of his own life battled with a wolf which escaped from its cage on the stage of the Amphion theater of Brooklyn, biting eight persons in the audience. While men battled in a mad stampede towards the exits and women fainted Cosgrove strangled the animal with his bare hands, receiving a score of bites about the arms and legs before assistance arrived and the infuriated beast was caged. "The Queen of the Highway" had reached the third act when the wolf burst from its cage upon the stage and scattering those upon the stage right and left, plunged over the footlights. Rearing upon its hind legs with jaws agape and snarling savagely the animal snapped at the members of the orchestra who fled with shouts of fear. Panic seized the audience. Women screamed and fainted and those in the

Rail, of this place. "I Was a great sufferer for 2 years and was very weak, but I learned about Cardui, and decided to try it Now I am in perfect health. "My daughter, when changing into womanhood, got in very bad health. I gave her Cardui and now she enjoys good health. "Cardui is worth its weight in gold. I recommend it for young and old." Being composed exclusively of harmless vegetable ingredients, with a mild and gentle medicinal action, Cardui is the best medicine for weak, sick girls and women.
