FEARFULLY COM MON


 and Ages-A Brilliant Recovery. There is something startling in the rapid increase of Kidney diseases among the American people with classes tend to produce and aggravate these troubles -as, for example, careless living, overworlz, and ex- posture. Dr. David Kennedy, of Sondout, N r., is often congratulated the exceptional success of his medicine called FAVORITE REMEDY in arrestng and radically curing these most painful and danger ous disorders Proofs of this, like the following constantly brought to his attention, and are pubsh- ed by him for the sake of thousands of other suffer- CTS whom he desires to reach and benefit. The letter. therefore, may be of vital importance to you or to some one whom you know. It is from one of the best known and popular druggists in the fine and growing city from which he writes-and doubtless where those may find Mir. Crawford at his place of business on the corner of Main and Union streets:
 SPRINGFIELD, MASS, March 22d, 1884. Dr. Daoid Kennedy, Rondoast. ". !.
 DEAR SIR: For ten years had been afflicted with Kidney disease in it's most acute form What suf- fered must be left to the imagination-for sorted to many physicians and to many different kinds of treatment, and spent great deal of money, only to find myself older and worse than ever may say that used 25 bottles of preparation widely ad, verised specific for this precise sort of troubles and found it entirely useless-at least iH my case
 Your FAVORITE REMEDY-I say it with per- feet recollection of all that done for besides is the only thing that did the slightest good and am happy To admit that it gave permanent relief people for Kidney disease and they all agree with me in saying that DIR. DAVID KENNEDY'S FAvORITE REMEDY has not it's equal in the wide world for this distressing and often fatal complaint,
 Use this letter you deem best for the benefit of others. Yours eto., LYMAN CRAWFORD.

am pleased to inform you, the most salts

have principally used it have been in
throat and lung affections, such as laryn
gifts, strangles, severe cases of influenza
bronchitis, pneumonia, etc. In the above
find that it acts as an excellent counter.
irritant, without causing the animal any
great pain or producing any constitutional
disturbance during its action. This
deem very important feature in the
treatment of all the above diseases.

bad sprains of muscular tissue, such as
injuries to shoulder or hip. | am gov

whole, the play was perhaps the most sat
lsiactory ever given in Memphis by
novices. In the first act the performers
were rather nervous, but were much more
at home in the second, and in the third
they appeared confident and at
which had rewarded their efforts.
The stage management was excellent in
every respect. The hand of an artist was
everywhere visible, the gypsy scenes es-
pecially effective. Nothing could have
been more effective than the grouping,
the background and the side lights in the
scene where "Meg Merrilles" first ap-
pears. Handwerker's orchestra handled
the instrumental portion OF the musical
feature with even more than their usual
success, and the number of good voices in
the cast made it possible to present the
play as a whole in an excellent manner.
Miss Ada Ward sang with skill and ease
two exquisite numbers, and Miss Cum
ningham so delighted the audience with
her rendition Of the Pretty Red Rose"
that she was obliged to repeat it.
Shields's, THE Wolf was very well done
by Mr. Anderson, and the Moonlight
Serenade," by Mr.. Hutton. But perhaps
the most taking musical portion OF the
programme was Bishops "Chough and
Crow" by Miss Montana, Mrs. Hawks,
r.. L. u. IL.
Baldwin carried off the part OF Guy
Mannering' with considerable credit, and
Mr.. q. d. Hutton again covered himself
with glory in the part of ''Henry Ber-
tram," for which he was well suited. Mr..
B. McDonough was prodigious as "Domi-
ME Sampson" and Mr.. Louis Davis gave
delightful zest and spirit to the part of
'Dandie Dinmont." Mr.. Sinclair Skillette
as the "Smuggler," Mr.. W. II. Adams as
'Glossin, Mrs Marie Hawks as the 'Gyp-
sy Wife" Miss Lulu Goepel as the "Gypsy
Girl" and Master Allen Cameron as
''Jabos," all performed their parts credit
ably for amateurs. The part of "Julia
Mannering," taken by Miss Cunningham,
was very prettily done; and Mrs. Stein
kuhl made charming hostess. Her man.
| ner was unrestrained, and she entered
| directly into the spirit 'of the part,
making "Mrs. McClandish" that would
be difficult to excel. Miss Woods con-
| ception Of the part of Lucy Bertram"
was good, and was very well executed.
Miss Rena Thompson certainly was
spirited Flora" and made bright and
charming figure, but it must be confessed
| that the part was little overdone.
OF Mrs. Thompson's "Meg Merrilles"
it may be said that no reader of Scott
could hope to see more powerful and
| real personation, so far as appearance is
concerned, of this grand and favorite
character of the Wizard of the North. The
lines were well spoken, and, except for the
apparent fact that many of her attitudes
were rather studied and rigid Mrs Thomp-
