 Cold and moisture conbihcd have a torporising effect upon the bodily organs, and the digestive and secretiye processes are apt to be more tardily performed in winter than in the fall. The same is true, also, of the excretory func- tions. The bowels are often slug gish, and the pores of the skin throw off but little waste matter at this season, The system, there fore, requires opening up a little, and also purifying and regulating. and the safest, surest and most thorough tonic and alterative that can be used for these purposes is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Per sons who wish to escape the rheu- matic twings, the dyspeptic agonies, the painful disturbances of the bowels, the bilious attacks, and the nervous visitations, so com mon at this time of the year, will do well to reinforce their systems with this renowned vegetable stomachic and invigorant. It i'm proves the appetite, strengthens the stomach, cheers the spirits and renovates the whole physique

THEATRICAL NOTES.

BY the death OF Gen. Sherman New York
city theatres lost their most enthusiastic
first nighter. Tickets were always sent
him for all important initial performances.
When he had to choose between n theatri-
cal first night and a banquet or other so
cial event he almost invariably decided In
favor OF the theatre. An experienced actor
or actress seldom won applause from him,
but a young person who had "A name to
make and promised we'll he always re-
warded for good work with hearty thumps
OF his zane upon the floor. One OF his
daughters generally sat next to him at the
theatre, and they discussed tho merits OF
the performance between the acts intelli-
gently. but in low tones,
The collapse OF the big spectacle, THE
Babes In the Wood" Is taken by many
theatrical people as evidence that the day
when profuse display OF pink fleshings will
attract the public to n theatre Is past. No
spectacle has had a really successful New
York season in several years. In Chicago
it Is different. "Cinderella" and THE
Babes In the Wood" were both successful
there.
1t is said that among the young prima
dbnnc who give promise OF becoming really
great there are two American born girls to
one Of every other nationality. 1t Is a
curious fact that the two greatest actresses
the world has ever known have been Of
Jewish blood-Rachel and Bernhard.
The announcement is made that Joseph
jefferson will surely retire from the stage
when the season after next Is finished
possibly before. No man can ever succeed
TO the great comedians popularity.
Daniel Frohman says more plays are sub
mitted to him from Philadelphia than from

age young Meffert swan second to Gus

American overland and side stroke. In
1857 he Won the A. A. u. mile champion
ship, and repeated the performance in 1889
and 1880. His best time Is 81 min. 80 -
sec, but it is believed he may yet lower it
by several seconds.
Mefert is a daring life saver, and has
rescued half a dozen people from death.
On July6 6, 1890, a child named Folsom fell
from "A scow Into the East river at Eighty
sixth street. Mefert dove out of n boat
aud rescued the little one AS II was about to

Crane. after the great number of his friends,
Is his love for all things American. He has
the greatest faith in America. His won
derful play, The Senator" was written
by David d. Lloyd, an American, and Is
full 10 the brim Of Americanisms. More
over, he has three other plays bought or
being written, and they are all by Ameri-
can authors and OF American people and
things.
As a fisherman he Is famous, and his fish
stories are all at least founded on fact. As
a practical joker he is incorrigible, having
trained for years with Billy Florence,
"Larry" jerome (whose death left q va
cancy In a circle Of jolly fellows which will
long remain unflled) and Others quite as
famous for their powers of fun making.
It is said that he aided and abetted Flor
ence when that gentleman advised a young
friend to relieve g pain which he said he
felt In his chest by pulling himself up and
down on a door frame. 1t was in a hotel,
and while Florence encouraged the young
man in this somewhat violent exercise
Crane rushed down to the Office and eN-
planned to the clerk that a young man was
up stairs who had gone suddenly daft, and
was trying to climb over the walls OF the
room.
h Crane is versatile IL shown by the
fact that On the stage he has been success
full as IN opera singer, a scene shifter and
a comedian. He is a linguist OF no small
attainment, speaking English fuently and
French recklessly. His talent as a pencilar-
fist is exhibited in the accom- panying sketch
labeled "a Picture from Cranes Memory"
He drew it himself. He says the black
lines at the side of the head are the curls in
the notary's wig. The drawing is full of a
fine disregard for detail aud unconvention-
ality OF treatment which cannot fail TO de
light the connoisseur. Mr.. Crane has also
displayed ability of no mean order in
matching half dollars. A splendid actor
and a splendid fellow, everybody knows
him and everybody loves min and rejoices
In the success that is the reward OF a life
full Of hard tasks well done.
