MUSIC AND DRAMA,
Rambler From Clare.

Mr.. Daniel Mccarthy and his company
of delineators of Irish life and character
appeared at Portland theatre last evening
in play written by Mr.. Mccarthy en-
titled The Rambl from Clare" The
play Is a mele drama something after the
style of 1.-The Colleen Bawn," and others
of Boucicault's dramas, and was evident
ly much liked by the large audience in
the balcony and gallery, and the much
smaller one down stairs. Mr.. Mccarthy
as Tony Sullivan, and Miss Ada Boshell
as Rose Dewey, the heroes sweetheart
sang and danced in each of the four
acts, and were encouraged by frequent
applause. Miss Boshell depicted the
merry, rough hammered true hearted Irish
lass always ready with witty reply, or
for song and dance. Miss Boshell's
songs and dancing in the third act were
repeatedly encored and pie; Sc the audi
ence as much as any part of the play.
Charles Saunders took the role of Pad dy
McFadden, quarrelsome, musical and
nimble old Irishman. Bagle Barry as
Squire Malone and Harry Minnick as
Charles Malone, the squire's son, took
the role of the villains. Little Mabel
Saunders pleased as Matte Malone.
Tonight the company will appear in
1.-THE Rambler again, the play being
repeated by request.

You can't make sick or diseased milk
well, not by any means, although some
manufacturers are so foolish as to keep
trying it, but you can attack the cause
and prevent tactical ailments. Always
keep the fact in mind that milk is an
emulsion, as it were, of butter glob.

Water is better than milk in some
cases, but it is fraud on both ele.
ments to mix the two together. Milk
contains two very prominent constitu-
ents, butter fat in the form of oil
globules and cascin, butter being the
product of the one and cheese of the
other Now all of the butter fat that
can be entangled in the meshes of the
coagulated casein to form cheese does
not hurt that product Bit in fact il

that only works one way.
The casein has no business to get
mixed with the cream and incorporate
itself into the butter. Being allowed tc
follow natures law it would never gel
there by its own grayitatiop, but
through the ignorance or careleasness
of poor butter makers it is constantly
creeping in to the detriment and otter
ruination of butter quality If the
butter maker thoroughly comprehend
ed the minute formation of milk he
would know that casein in the churr
and frkin was foreign element, ant

SMclled Heads and Ewes.

A majority OF the inquiries received
by us are in regard to blindness,
swollen heads and eyes and ratings
in the throat. Nearly all of these diff
culties are due to drafts of air on the
birds at night, usually from overhead;
but nail hole or a crack in the wall is
sufficient to cause whole flock to be

weather, but currents of air are injuri-
Gus. The remedy is to prevent the
currents, and to anoint the eyes and

one part spirits of turpentine and two
parts sweet oil, and also to force ten

A GREEK DANCE.
Quaint and Curious Amusements of the
Modern Hellcnes,

Modern Hellenes.
The first on the programme was what
for the moment will describe as the
Circular dance" The performers, men
and women, joined hands and stood in
circle broken by gap at one spot; the
leader of the figure, who was the tallest
individual present, held in his hand
bright scarlet kerchief and led the circle
in it's gyrations, which were slow and al
ways about the same center; this par
ticular movement was brought about
by each dancer in the ring taking GER
tain number of steps to the right, a half
turn, and then certain number to the
left, with the final result that each per-
son at the end of bar or two had
moved on little, although still retain
| ing his original place as regarded his
companions on either side.
This dance, which is the great amuse-
ment in the Eupoean villages, is gener-
| ally executed to the usual monotonous
nasal chorus, sung by all those joining
in the dance--a duller or more insipid
performance either to participate in or
70 witness as n spectator can not be
imagined, yet it seems to be greatly APP
preciated by the peasants, who never
| tire OF it, and who would think any,
thing in the nature of waltz highly
INDIGENOUS and improper
On this particular occasion fustanellas
and petticoats footed it with the same
conscientious energy and becoming
gravity as usual, and being curious of
trying my hand, or rather feet, with
she others, I joined the circle, which,
after my irruption into it, lost most OF
its pristine dignity and the whole of its
regularity through my hops, skips and
Jumps being 9ncommonly high and out
Of time. This was taken in good part
allowance doubtless being made for
Sarbaric customs-and hearty laugh
from the lool1crs-on betolcncd that my
sxertions were ludicrous if not artistic.
The next figure was spirited per-
tormance, somewhat like sword dance,
executed by two men. The steps were
danced very neatly and showed to ad-
vantage their fine stalwart figures and
Hhirling fustanellas, the latter in
the pirouetting movements look

this stage as the hour wnxcd late,

10 Threatens to Become One of the Worst
of American Weed Pests.

of American Weed Pests.
The following description of what
promises to be one of the worst weed
pests of Ohio is by Prof. August d.
Shelby, secretary of the Columbus hor-
ticultural society:
"Prickly lettuce (Lactuca Scariola)
Is one of the many examples of intro
duced plants which thrive we'll here
1t is, in fact, to be put among our
troublesome weeds. 1t is composite,
as are the ox-eye daisy, ragweed, this
tie, etc, and grows from 4 to feet in
height. 1t is biennial, sometimes an
nual, with very leafy stem at this
period of its growth, the lower part of
stem and lower surface of midrib of the
leaves beset with prickles. The leaves
are alternate, to s inches long, rarely
exceeding one and three-fourth inches
in width at widest part, clasping at
base with conspicuous ears extending
backward, and are wider toward the
end. The edges are irregular and
prickly-toothed. The leaves, though
not SO large, in shape and color strong
iy resemble the Cos varieties of Guilt
waited lettuce. The plant is closely re-
lated to the cultivated lettuce L. Sativa),
which was formerly referred to this
species as a variety Once carefully
note the appearance and shape OF the
leaves and it will be an easy matter for
one to recognize this weed.
''The flowers, or heads more proper
ly, come in branching clusters in July
and later, are small and yellow, con-
tanning on an average to IL separate
flowers
1.-The plant is introduced from Eu-
rope and first made it's appearance in
Ohio at Toledo in 1878. 1t appeared at
gainesville in 1879. and was first OBJ
served upon the university farm at
Columbus in 1882. In the edition of
Gray's Botany bearing date of 1857, it
is mentioned as growing about Cam
bridge, Mass.
"From personal observation ! can
state that it is becoming introduced
everywhere in Franklin county, and
reports from other parts of the state
indicate the same state of things else
where. There is scarcely another plant
that has spread so rapidly over the
country. To show how rapidly it is
capable of spreading, Miss Detmers, Of

made an estimate from the plants
growing at the corner of King and Neil

YOUR HEALTH.

The citadel of life must be guarded
at two points. In the first place there
is the danger of taking cold. We take
cold through the skin and this affects
the kidneys and the lungs. So init.
mately are these organs connected,
that cold affects both. In order to
relieve the system, both should DO
treated, or rather the whole system
should be regulated. This is done by
Reds German Cough and Kidney
Cure. 1t acts as Stimulant and re-
stores the organs to action. The
other weak spot is the digestion.
When the food does not digest, it &C.

and death. The Laxative Gum Drops
will remove all waste material from
the system and do it without pain or
gripping. Ask your druggist for these
remedies and see that he gives them
