A Temperance Town.
There is a play coming here that com-
pleted a phenominal run for one half a
year at the Park Theatre, Boston. It
is “A Temperance Town,” by Charles
H. Hoyt, that inimitable author of ten
mostsuccessful comedies. At the very
close of its run in Boston and New
York, it had bestowed upon it, as much
favor by means of the constant applause
and almost constant laughter as though
it was playing its very first perform-
ance, and in that time had won the uni-
versal favor of all theatre-goers. The
production will be given exactly as seen
in Boston and New York, during its re-
markable run in those cities. It comes
to Hoyt’s Theatre, April 14.

“The Old Homestead,” appeared at

familiar play was an excellent one, the
same individual members as last season,
'with" Archie Boyd in the character Of
“Joshua Whiteomb.” The double
male quartette is the strongest ever eu-
gaged to support the production, and
the musical pOrtiou of the entertain-
meut contained many new songs and
harmonies. The entire strength of the
company, twenty voices, led by R. J.
Jose, was brought to bear in “The
Psalms" choral service in Grace church
New York.

When an incident like the following 1‘
occurs right here at home it is bound to
carry weight with our readers When so
many strange occurrences go the rounds
of the press, are published as facts, when
the intelligent reader knows‘ they cannot
be true,'there is no wonder that people
become skeptical. On one subject
_ . is rapidl disa earin .
This is due to the actual persoulfl) expegr-‘
iencc of our citizens, and their public ut-
terances regarding them. The doubter
must doubt no more in the face of such
eVidence as this. The public statement
of a reputable citizen livingr right here at
home, one whom you causes every day,
leaves no ground for the skeptic to stand
on.
- Mrs. John Grace of 32 Plattsville ave-
nue,says: “I am well up in years, and for
quite a long time I have suffered with
my back and kidneys. The pain often
extended down into my limbs and was
frequently so severe that I suppOsed I
had rheumatism. I was advised to use
Doane’s Kidney Pills, and began taking
them. I think the pills are a good
thing, they cured me.” ‘
