is composed of talented actors and
they also carry their own orchestra
to suitably render appropriate music.
All who attend may expect to wit
ness first.class attraction. The fol-
lowing is what the Jackson, Glenn
sun says:
"Frank Linden and company last
night presented the touching story Of
the friendship OF Damon and Pythiss,
upon which the Order of the knights
of Pythias was founded. Mr.. Lindon
as Damon" proved himse: an actor
of no ordinsryhistrionic talent. Indeed
we do not belie5e that his equal has
been seen in Jackson since Frederick
Warde was here in 1888. E. G Bor-
ing, who took the part of "Pythias,"
is young actor of much promise
Miss Edna Earle as "Catlantha"
bride of "Pythias," sustained her
part most admirable. The other
support was good. We will not for
get TO say that Prof. Collins and his
Orchester add much to the enjoyment
of the plays.

Whene'er an anxious group is seen
Around some monthly magazine
Or paper that is daily whirled
To every quarter of the world.
And merry peals Of laughter rise
AS this or that attracts the eyes,
The smiling crowd, you may depend,
Above some illustrations bend
That advertise the strength and scope
And purity of IVORY Soar.
