A very clever device to prevent acct
dental poisoning by taking medicine
from the wrong bottle is worth men,
tioning for its very simplicity. A small
bell is attached to the cork Of the
poison bottle and rings at the slightest
motion. As a considerable number Of
deaths each year are due to this very
cause, the adoption Of this little safe
guard might prove very valuable.

 Enjoyable One.

''The Actors' Holday' was the attrac. ton at the Park theater and was the mag net that drew two crowded houses yester- day. Everyone was delighted. not only with the comedy, scenery, costumes, etc., i, but the very clever company and truly wonderful specialties. All the parts were in good hands and there is not Hstick" or "fll in'' in the entire large company. This is saying great deal, as there gener- edy attractions. The audience applauded themselves tired, the actors and musicians were spirited, the managers were happy. What other elements of success are want tug? All the songs are absolutely new and very catchy. The dialogue never gets tire eome.-Dayton (O.) News, August7.

Opera company gave performance in
aid of the unemployed. The seats
were sold ut auction, high prices being
obtained, and tremendous audience
assembled on the evening of the per

told regarding the evenings entertain
ment and the audience by a CORE
spondcnt of the San Francisco Arpo-
naut. a lady in the balcony wore a
prodigious hat, with still more pro-
digious feather in it. Another lady
sitting behind her expostulated, de-
claring that the hat and feather shut
her out from view of the stage. The
hat wcarer proving obdurate. the suf-
fcrer called to an usher and remarked:
eve paid six dollars for our seats and
not for back view of that feather. If
you don't make that woman remove
her hat I'll sue the opera house." The
usher's polite Inconsistencies induced
the offender to remove the feather, but
she sat through the performance with
her big hat on.
was appealed to by one who sat behind
her to remove it in order that the stage
might become visible. She smiled
sweetly and replied that she would
love to oblige the ladies behind, but
she really couldn't; her hair wasn't
properly done up. THAT will not mat
ter" said the protesting lady, in loud
voice; "Pm not particular. You may
take your hair off, too"
