Heart of Chicago. '
It would be hard to get more scenery
in a single production than is employed
,in staging “The Heart of Chicago,"
Lincoln J. Carter’s newest play. The
Philadelphia Ledger of Nov. 10th said,
“Enough scenery is used in its produc-
tion to amply stock half a dozen melo-
dramas.” Among the scenes promised
are the Chicago Fire scenes, showing a
section of Chicago, before, during and
after the fire, Masonic ' Temple Roof
Garden, the big panoramic View of the
South Side at night, the VVorld’s Fair
Court of Honor during a night illumi-
nation, the Columbus fountain, the
typical Chicago street scene and the
famous approaching train scene.

E AN EXCEPTION.
» Physicians seldom prescribe a
. proprietary medicine. There are so
: many worthless reparations that
every reputable ‘ octor must be ab-
solutely convinced of their curative
virtues before he will have anything
to doivltli them. No physician will

ers.- They find it better than any .
prescriptions they can write them- 1;
selves. They find it cures kidney,
urinary, blood and liver diseases
when their own prescriptions fall.
They know it has helped them" save
lives which could not have been
saved without it. : >

It may be a source of wonderment

the csmllop to read, as he does at in

)ch1 found—us. for instance, recently
11 Great South Bay—in waters that
ll‘C well known, that are constantly
fished, and that have been regularly
ishcd for years. The wonder is that
he cscallops there were not, discov-

were not there, and thechla‘nation of
that is found in ’the fact that the es-

It seems as though everybody is talk-
ing at once over the telephone if you
make an attempt at wire conversation
in the early morning hours.
It must be exasperating to a man to
be introduced as “Mrs. So and 80's
husband.”
' Real friendship is so rare that when
we find it we are not quite able to un-
derstand it.
.How much easier it is to make reso-
lutions to save than to make resolutions
to'pay our debts.
Some days we can accomplish with
the greatest ease everything that we
sot ourselves about; on other occasions
it seems as though a demon of perver-
sity chuckled at our failures.
A wide lace necktie and large cravats
of kilted black lisse are very much
worn by faSliion-able women.
How pleasant it is to discover a large-
and disfiguring smudge on our face just
after we have been having an important
interview with someone on whom we
wished to make a good impression.
There is a great need seldom recog-
nized of bringing a thoughtful intelli-
gence to bear upon vexations and mis-
eries of life. It takes something be-
side the virtue of long suffering to dis
cover the cause of the sorrow that has
overwhelmed us.
There is no sorrow that time will not
heal unless mourning attire is very be-
coming. '
