AMUSEMENT NOTES.

1t is seldom the opportunity is of
fered to witness a performance so
really refreshing as that which will be
given by Sol Smith Russell in "a Poor
Relation" at the Academy of Music

is as fine piece Of character acting as
Jeffersons Rip Van Winkle or South
ern's Dundrsary, and no one can wit
ness it without having better opin =.
ion Of humanity. The play is as pure
ss sunlight and contains none of those
questionable characters and incidents
that mar the beauty of 80 many mod
ern dramas,

WHY THE JAPANESE WIN.
The Beauty OF Having Plenty of Force
Where II Is Needed.


Where 1t Is Needed.
Let US consider what we mean by taking
cold.
China is ten times more populous than
Japan, but the Japs have beaten their neigh
bors in battle after battle.
What has that to do with taking cold?
Merely this: The Japanese manage to be
stronger than the enemy at the point of actual
contact. That is generalship.
Cold air strikes the skin, contracts the
oloodvasSels, and drives the blood to the in
terror, where the organs are congested and
perhaps infiamed. IL is not enough to take
something TO stop that cough" All the forces
OF the body must be reused to expel the in
vader, and the carrier in the campaign this is
done, the more complete Will be the victory.
In other words, the best weapon against u
cold is stimulant, of which Duhys Pure
Malt Whisky is the best example in the
market. Its effect on the blood is to distribute
1t where 1t belongs and to keep the circulation
gives strong and welcome support To q system
run down by oyerwork or worry, perhaps by
Il combination OF both.
Attention Is directed to the fact that Duffy's
MATT Is u medicinal preparation, the purity OF
Whlch removes il far from common Whisky :,
ana enables 1t to give benefit where ordinary
WLlshleS would be Valueless.
y cough IS only q sign OF cold To quiet il
iehlpofafIly does not urlNe the enemy from the
poay. Inc conquest OF Il cold is a SIM pie mat
ler Wheh one uses Dufty's Pure Malt Whisky.

"All comes OF his eddication,- he

mistake. He's been settin' himself I'M
lg'in me for some time. An he thinks
Ike his mother that there's no gold

iivinin rod. Well, / guess he'll get
over his pet and come to my terms. II
I'm hrm-an I'm always firm. It's my
way"
With these remarks he turned and
walked toward the distant hillside
where several men were engaged In
mining operations under the direc-
lion of old Eben Farley, a quaint local
character, who professed to have oc-
,ult knowledge, and for years had
claimed the ability to locate mineral
veins with a witch hazel rod He had
succeeded In imposing on John Carey
The belief that a gold vein existed in
rocky hill that formed the eastern
boundary Of his farm. and operations

,or several weeks, during which the
Did farmer had become more and mora
infatuated with the idea that a for

bogus assays that had been secured
by Farley.
The miners, inexperienced laborers
rom the village, were slowly blasting
heir way into a hard conglomerate

spot he watched their operations for

The neighbors had been predicting
disaster at John Carey's mine, owing
% the dissipated character of the men
employed by old Farley. and II SEEM
I'd destined that their fears should
come true. The workmen were en-
gagged in tamping a new blast while
he two men were intently examining
he mineral vein, when sudden
shock as of an earthquake occurred.
The blast had prematurely exploded.
md had been followed by a consider
able fall of dirt and debris into the
mine.
Fortunately several Of the workmen
were outside of the mine. and other
help was hastily summoned. and the
'hJuleu were as speedily as possible
rescued from their disagreeable posi-
ion. Two of the vorkmen were seri-
Jusly injured, while Eben Farley him
self had broken leg and several Sc
we're contusions. AS for John Carey,
ne ever after blessed his fortune that
ne escaped with something like half
4 hundred cuts and bruises, none Of
which were serious, though he was
found insensible under a wagon-load
of dirt and rock. The charge had
fortunately been a small one, the work.

skill to use heavy blasts, or the re-

said, but like most men of his kind

The Accident at the Mine.
ne believed devoutly in signs and
warnings. He was confined to his bed
for several days, during which he had
abundant time to reflect upon his
quarrel with his son and the accident
at the mine.
MARY" he said to his wife, as he
sat in an easy chair for the first time
since the accident, and gazed through
the windows over his broad acres to
where the abandoned mine could be
plainly seen against the hillside, to
morrow is Thanksgiving, amt it?"
YES" responded the pious woman,
"and / feel that we have especial
cause for giving thanks this year"
so do |, Mary, so do l." he said
eagerly; IAN more because my eyes
is opened so that l see what a fool l
have been maxim Of myself. Mary,
we've got a noble boy-that George Is
a noble boy"
"He is a good boy" assented the
proud mother.
Hes more than that. You ought
to have heard how he spoke up to me
when | told him he must marry Betsy
Wood or I'd cut him off without a
dollar. I've been thinkin' 1t over, an
admire him for his pluck, now that
I've got my senses about the matter.
Mary, you like that Nellie Thorne"
She's a sweet and noble woman"
replied Mrs. Carey.
"Well, I've made up my mind that
no woman is too good or too we'll
eddicated for our George; an say,
Mary, if you're a mind to invite Nellie
Thorne here to dinner tomorrow, I'll
try to be on my feet an give her a
welcome that will make George forgit
that we have quareled about her"
So it came to pass that Thanksgiv-
ing Day brought happiness to two
worthy hearts. and Farmer Carey's
mine work was never resumed.
