ADJUSTMENTS.
The Charity Concert.

The Charity Concert.
At the First Methodist church tonight
will be given an entertainment that, upon
its merits alone, should have the largest
attendance of anything gwen in Seattle
for long time. Not only will the enter
tainment be of high order. but the object
for the advancement of which it is given
IS most laudable one. 1t will be in the
form of concert by the Ladies Musical
Club, one OF the leading social organiza-
tons OF the city. and one comprising
among its membership some of the best
musical talent in the Northwest, and the
cause for which it is given is the Bureau
of Associated Charities, one OF the city's
noblest public institutions. Members of
the club and others interested in the work
of charity have been selling tickets. and
large attendance is assured. Those who
cannot go might at least buy one or more
tickets, as they are sold for only 80 cents.

"The Guv'nor'' bids fairly to eclipse
most of the pieces staged at Cordray's
since the opening of the house. This is
a strong statement, but it can be verified
by any constant patron of the theater.
The play is comedy-drama. highly enter
tanning without q tinge of vulgarlty or
the introduction of horse-play. 1t is
legitimate. 1t subordinates superficial
artitice and an admixture of hotchpotch
to sterling comedy and possible situation.
The observer is struck by the clever man
ner in which the constructor interweaves
the farcical element with the normal. There
is action and reasonable sequence in the
development. Old Macclesfield is real
person, and his actions on the stage
appear as natural. in the talented
hands of Mr.. George Osbourne, as if he
were strutting about his own boatyard,
the deaf monarch Of all he surveys. The
entire cast is we'll sustained, and bears
testimony to the unremitting toll spent by
Mr.. Osbourne in rehearsal and SUPER
vision.
A great treat is offered the unsteady
inclined in the auditorium this week by
the appearance of Miss Gertie Liebholdt,
the celebrated violin soloist. This lady is
a really marvellous performer on the violin.
She has the art of bringing more soul out
of the selections rendered by her than
any other lady artist ever heard in this or
any part of the United States. She is
gifted with delicate touch, graceful move
ment, correct mental accuracy Of time,
skillful execution, remarkable sweetness
of expression, and poetic perception of
the beautiful and appropriate in harmon
les. Lovers of fine music in the city
should. every one, hear her execute selec-
tons from al Trovatore."

BASKING IN THE sun.

The love of sunshine is naturally one Of
our strongest instincts and we should be
far better and healthier if we took more of
It. All Of these things should be enjoyed
In moderation. Even walking, II the exer-
else Is carried to the point of fatigue, Is
hurtful to the invalid. 1t takes the rarest
common sense to tell just what the sick
should do and should not do in order to.
obtain the best results and the least injury
from these things. This is certain, that
the first thing that the sick must attend to.
Is to see that the digestion is in perfect
order. When this Is not the case the evil
may be remedied by taking the Laxative
Gum Drop. These gum drops are the best
things in the world for people with weak
stomachs for the reason that they contain
nothing deleterious and they can be given
to the most delicate child without injuring
It In the least. These gum drops are put
up In two sizes. The small size costs ten,
cents the large size twenty-five cents. Get
them of any dealer.
