Hoyt's ga Black sheep"

ter crowding the Park Theatre ,Bos-
ton. for twelve weeks, Hcyt's "a Black
Sheep" comes TO the Portland Theatre
tonight and tomorrow evening for it's
only presentations in Maine this season.
Few plays are RS mirth provoking as this
latest emanation from the pen of MIR.
Hoyt. Laughter is ineessant from the
rise of the curtain to Its fall, and such
a thing as lull in the merriment is not
permitted. In the play Mr., Hoyt has
again diplayed his mastery insight as
student of human nature, his many sharp
hits never failing to meet with the
heartiest responses from the auditors
He has succeeded admira bly, too, in
fitting his characters of his company.
Mr.O Harlan has never been seen to
such acceptance as in the role of Hot
Stuff, and it can be safely said that no
one could have equalled his work in the
part. Mr.. William DeVere appears as the
Arizona editor who seeks to collect his
subscriptions with a gun in his hands,
character portrayal of great merit.
Miss Fanny Johnston has made the sue
cess of her career as the "Queen of
Eurlesque," her beautiful face and fem
and exquisite voice meeting every re-
quirement of the role. Vocally and in
dancers the company is exceedingly
strong, the polo dancing of Miss Moore
and Miss Wells being captivating feat
ure. The vaudeville entertainment in
troduced in the final act, where Hot
SGuff's friends are celebrating the last
night of his bachelorhood is whole
show in itself.
Light of Asia.
Tonight the Hayden Association will
give Dudley Bucks cantata. "The Light
of Asia" in KutZschmar hall.
The cantata is noted for it's beauty
and the various solo parts will be taken
ny our best singers. Mr.. Will Stock
bridge has kindly consented to assume
the tenor role. The reserved seats can
be had from the members and at Stock
bridge 6.

$1,000 four years ago. and the business has since
been under the active management OF Mr. Martin
The firm never had any rating at Bradstreets Ten
days ago they gave two chattel mortgages to the
Diamond Brick Company for $3.50 each on two
barges the Diamond and Louise. which caused some
comment In the trade. Mr.. Morrow, the company
is a well-known confectoner AT Jersey city and
Ocean Grove. where he has been In business many
years and which business was established by his
grandfather sevenIy-fve years ago When he be
came a partner IN Martin e. Co, IL was said. he
contributed 5000 to the capital. but he was then

FEW KNOW ABOUT THE SHAK-
ERS OF MOUNT LEBANON.

We do not believe in their peculiar religious
views. We cannot enter into the spirit Of their
sacrifices. and therefore don't study their
habits Of life.
1t is not necessary TO believe as they do nor to
act they do. but we can and do respect their
honesty OF purpose both as far as their principles
are concerned and their worldly deeds
Almost every prominent man has some one spe-
ciaty in which he excels. especially II he has de-
voted his life TO its study ana Development
In one particular the Shakers excel above all
others. and above all other men or classes Oh
men. This is In the cultivation of medicinal herbs
and plants. They have made this a study Tor
more than one hundred years. They are also eN-
pert in extracting from them their peculiar es-
sences and medi -inal virtues.
This is their peculiar industry Their lives have
been devoted to 1t. BY II they are supported.
They excel in this branch as do the Monks Of the
Order OF Benedictine with their famous queur
Now. this lifelong study on the part OF the
Shakers has not been in vain. They have accom-
plished much good. Their medicinal extracts ana
cordias are known throughout the world.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial is probably the
most successful article ever given TO the public.
1t is not a for all diseases: 1t don't pretend
to be- but one disease 1t will and that Is IN
digestion. 1t Is not pretended that II VIII cure
anything else. and sufferer has not long 10 wait
TO the result
tinued n permanent cure will follow. The shaker
motto is: ITO try all things and hold fast To that
which is good" For this REASON, the Sh ake!S
have put into the hands Of The retail drugElsts
who sell their Digestive Cordial. small tilai pot.
ties which can be had for 10 cents each so '.iat
for this small sum the reader can know II the
Digestive Cordial Is adapted to his case.
