World of Novelties.

Despite the “Klondike fever” that
has seized so many of us, there are still
remaining enough “stay-at-homes” to
have made the theatrical season thus
far this year, very good financially,
even beyond expectations. Vaude-
ville is the‘ d”, and the leaders in
that branch the theatrical busmess
are faring the best. Gus Hill’s World
of Novelties has had big business
everywhere this season, and giving a
performance that contains more new
features than ever before during fif-
teen years experience. Gus Hill’s
World of Novelties is indisputably the
grandest and most complete Vaudeville
organization knowu, and will play an
engagement at Hoyt’s theatre Thurs-
day evening, September 9.

 

Sweet lnniscarra.

“Sweet Inniscara’? is the pretty title
that Augustus Pitou has given to his
new play written by him for his star,
Chauncey Olcott, which will be given
at Hoyt’s Theatre, Wednesday, Septem-
ber 8th. It is a strong romantic Irish
drama, and the author has chosen the
year 1812 for the period of his play.
This gives an excellent opportunity for
beautiful costumes, for dress of that
time was most picturesque. As the
hero, Mr. Olcott, will be seen at his
best, his handsome face and figure
making “Gerald O’Carroll” most pic-
turesque and he will sing several _new
songs written and composedby him for
this play.

A Night at Steve Brodie’s.

One of the most clever actors of to-day
is Steve Brodie in “ A night at Steve
Brodie’s, ” which will be seen at Hoyt’s
Theatre on Monday night, in conjunc-
tion with a strong vaudeville organiza-
tion, “The New York Stars,” the mem-
bers of which are well known to the
theatres of most large cities. Brodie
will introduce real character life as
seen any day in his Bowery saloon, the
Mecca for cosmopolitans, east-siders,
sight-seekers,journalists and caracatur-
ists.

 

“Never Again.”

‘Save all your brightest smiles for
“ Never Again,” the opening play at
Hoyt’s Theatre, Saturday, September
4. It is the sauciest, neatest, bravest
and most captivating bunch of fun ever
transported from Paris. There is all
the mental rest necessary to a vacation,
and all the brisk tonic of a mint julip
in this riot of laughter. The company

. is one of the very best ever gathered
together for the illustration of the far-
cical side of life.

tends to carry on the meat business in
connection with the grocery.

This evening a party of Stamford

Clothes-pin parties are novel func-
tions in vogue at summer hotels.

The patience of women with chil-
dren is an ever-increasing cause for;
wonder among bachelors.

The golden rod is being used exten-
sively by florists in table decmations
for September luncheon and dinner
parties. '

No matter how grown up we are:
there are times when homesickness and '
a longing for a mother’s love make
children of us again. «

Furniture sales reveal the fact that
folding-beds can be bought at purely
nominal prices, their disposition to
shut up (unlike that of the fair sex)
causing them to depreciate in value.

...~... .. ..-_

The persons who have treated others
the worst generally shed the greatest
number of tears at their funerals.

Some afternoon tea-tables are genu-
ine records of small. thefts, the mania
for collecting souvenir spoons from
yachts, hotels and dining cars being
responsible for the heterogeneous as
semblage of ill-gotten mementoes of
the summer outing.

Why does the conductor always col-
lect the fare from the side of the open
car that needs the greatest amount of
reaching from the passenger to hand it
to him ?

The English women may have lovely
complexions, but their use of false hair
is anything but adorable from an Amer-
ican standpoint.

Sunday schools will soon pick up in
attendance, but it is not until just be-

fore Christmas time that the growth

will be particularly marked.

The frankly selfish person is tremen-
dously preferable to the self eifacing
saint who doesn’t mean one-half of the
offensive self-denial he or she displays.

N o matter how perfectly healthy
you may feel, if you meet a person who
declares that you are not looking well
you at once imagine that there are
symptoms in your possession indicating
a serious illness.

It is reported that a young woman
bicyclist wearing a celluloid collar was
Seriously burned owing to its igniting
from the cigarette of her escort. Of
course the matter could be explained
if they were riding a tandem, but
otherwise it gives rise to questions tha.
the pair might find it difficult to an
swer. -

TIRES THAT LEAK.

The Morgan & Wright single-tub.
quick-repair tire must be regarded as
a distinct improvement in bicycle tire
construction. It has the following ad-
vantages: .

While punctures in it can be re
paired with plugs, or semi-liquid in-
jections, as well as in any other
single-tube tire, it can be permanent!)
repaired by using the quick-repair
strip inside the tire. See out No. 1.

6

By injecting M. & W. quick-repai:
cement through the puncture, and
then pressing down on the tire with
the thumb. as in cut No. 2, the repair

 

' No. 2.

strip inside is picked up by the cement,
thus closing the puncture, as in cut
No. 3. _ -

The Morgan & Wright single-tn
quick-repair tire is guaranteed not
porous. This is on account of the way
in which it is made. Nearly every
rider has heard of tires that “leak
like a sieve.”

Many tires rot, because water gets
into the fabric between the two layers
of rubber. The Morgan & Wright
fabric is proof against moisture.

Everybody knows how comfortable
Morgan 82 Wright tires are, and yet
how seldom they puncture. This is
due to the fabric.

Ask any bicycle dealer whether
other ltires last as long as Morgan &
Wright tires. Ask, also, ‘what the
Morgan 8:. Wright guarantee means.
Morgan & Wright tires are repaired
free of charge, at the factory in
Chicago or at any of the Morgan &
Wright free repair shops, located in
‘-he principal cities.

N. B.—When you have a. puncture.

get right off. Riding a tire flat, when
it has. a tack or nail in it, may
’amage it considerably.

Physicians seldom ' prescribe a ,
proprietary medicine. There are so
many worthless preparations that
every reputable doctor must be ab- >
solutcly convinced of their curative
virtues before he will have anything
to do with them. No physician will

take any chances in such matters.
In. many cases

is prescribed by eminent practition-
ers. They find It better than any
prescriptions they can‘wnte them-
selves." They find it _cures kidney, ‘
urinary, blood and liver. diseases
when their own prescriptions fail.
’ They know it has helped them save ,
lives which could not have been
saved Without it“

Dr. W. H. Morse is one of theforemost
professional men In New Jersey. His labora-
tory is at Westficld. He says. "I have ex-
amined Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy
chemically and tested it therapeutically. I do
not know Dr. Kennedy, but consider his Fa-
, vorltc Remedy a grand discovery." Dr. Morse
tells of cases it has cured that had been pro-
nounced incurable.
