 Little did we think years ago when Dr. Holloway, our great southern specialist, located in Birmingham and mode5tly an- nounced through the columns of the Her. aid that he would treat only special class oi diseases that he would ever achieve an international reputation. To our personal knowledge from across the ocean, in far away England, they have learned of his skill and fame and consult him. We be- lieve with the doctor that truth, merit and honor always win. He stands at the head "a pleasant gentleman, an able physician and is recognized as the leading author ity in the treatment of all private diseases. Birmingham may well be proud of-him.
 Birmingham Daily News.l
 No specialist in the south is more fa- miliar with the treatment of private troubles than Dr. Y. E. Holloway. Dur ing his long residence in this city he has successfully treated many thousands of pa- tients suffering with private troubles of every conceivable form. This great expe- rience, together with his skill and ability, not only places the doctor at the head of his profession in such matters, but is a guarantee to all that place themselves un- der his care that they will receive the best treatment possible to be obtained.

Abbey Shofful and Grau are
doing their level best to get rid of Miss
Russell. She has lost no end of money
for them and they have given up the
battle. They have put all the grea,
singers and prima dounas in the world
through to their great mutual glory,
but Lillian the fair with her ten chirpy
little tones is too much for them. Mr..
Abbey says il Miss Russell could be
persuaded to go out into the provinces
and play she could have money to burn.
but she will not leave the cities where
everyone is tired Of her. She Keeps
banging around New York and Boston
that give her the cold shoulder, while
the smaller cities who have been pant
ing and perishing and whitening up for
the sight Of her she will not deign to
visit.

leila de Lussan has been singing
Carmen in Dublin. The Dublin Times
says OF her: mile. de Lussan was
always darling, del ghtful and charm
ing vivaciOus Carmen; but to this she
has added an audacious suggestiveness
and an almost unlimited abandon.
Many people will object to her perform
ance as being altogether too broad. but
they cannot but admit the genius which
SO happily introduces spirit that was
perhaps lacking in previous years, and
close attention to finished detail that
is quite new. For instance, after the
fight in the cigar factory, we find
Carmen with her hair in wild disorder,
and the lace of her gown almost in
tatters-little realistic attentions that
were much appreciated by the audi
ence. Mile. de Lussan is original
enough also to defy the conventional
costumes that have always been looked
for in a Carmen. The broad treatment
of the part was much redeemed by the
magnificent singing Of the gifted prima
DONNA" would go long way to see
de Lussan's "audacious suggestiveness
and unlimited abandon" The Dublin
Times man has lost his head. 1t
simply is not possible. Mile. de Lussan
is nice little person with nice smile
and an angular form without single
natural curve on it. The only kind OF
abandon she can simulate is a sort Of
school girl abandon that might
do for the Three Little Maids OF the
Mikado, but is pretty light diet for
Carmen. leila broad" the idea!

Nine. Judith Gautier has written a
new Hindoo play called "Aspara" for
Bernhardt. Nine. Gautier. it will be
remembered, translated from the Jap
anese Heart Of Ruby" the play that
failed at Days last year because it was
too poetic TO succeed. Nine. Gautier is
the daughter Of Theophile Gautier, the
author OF those luxuriant oriental
studies "Fortunio" and "Une Mutt De
Cleopatra" The French are full Of
oriental feeling. Those hot winds that
blow up from Provence carry the odor
of citron and orange groves even to
Paris. Said Daudet, 20 wind and fire
of the South, We are irresistible"
French art is full OF them. The great
passions never become wholly conven-
tionalized in France. Every year that
hot blood and ardorous enthusiasm
from the south pour into Paris. into
Partisan life and Partisan thought.
Beneath that most polished suavity in
the world there is always something of
the savage. 1t comes from the South,
with the poets and the orators. In the
last forty years whole oriental vocab-
ulary has crept into the French Ian
guage Half of the best novels, the
greatest pictures, the most perfect
music are oriental in theme and treat
ment. Last season Bernhardt played
The Earthen Chariot" a Sanskrit
drama four thousand years old. No
one imbibed more of this oriental
atmosphere than Gautier. He stands
next to Flaubert in handling oriental
color. There are pages in his oriental
sketches that seem to palpitate with
heat, like a line of sand hills in the
South that dances and vibrates in the
yellow glare Of noon. There are SEN
fences that ring out like the clank of
golden armour, chapters that are en-
balmed in spices and heavy with the
odors OF the vale of Cashmere. Judith
Gautier has followed her fathers
eastern studies and gone beyond him.
The academy Of France never questions
her TRANSACTIONS from the Japanese,
Sanshrit and Hindoo. She is lin.
guist, an etymologist, a poet, novelist
and dramatist. She has literally
"ransacked the ages, spoiled the
climes,' and yet she is Parisienne.
They are strange people, those women
Of Paris; they are so versatile and they
can touch upon 30 many extremes.
They are, on general average, about
the most learned women in the world,
and yet they are never digs" like other
learned women. Study never takes any
OF the vivacity out OF them. They learn
language as they learn dance.

no reason for Miss Morris being in her
present physical condition. She is
years younger than Bernhardt and yet
she is a wreck. 1t all came Of reckless
living. To see Clara Morris at this
stage Of her career is certainly painful
and yet should advise every young
pereon who has never heard her to grit
his teeth and SIT at least one play
through. He will see an instance OF an
art unique and without rival in its
way. Clara Morris was one Of those

Then Here Is a Pussy Cat Charm with
Which to Woo Him.
A discussion has recently been carried
on in The Vegetarian Oh the subject Of
the magnetic power Of the cat. One gen
tleman writes:
"Allow me, as one who often has
sleepless nights and has tried every
thing you suggest, to mention remedy
which / have found above them all, and
which you do not notice. 1t is simply to
take a pet cat to sleep with one. Cats
are the very best magnetizers and hyp-
notists, and the safest. To obtain the
remedy it will not do to take a cat into

relief neglect her You must be kind 10

your friend. She viii give you precious
sleep, when all other remedies fail, and
better than all put together. The cat is
the truest friend Of man, were man in
telIigent enough to know it. The Egyp-
tians knew what we seem not to know.

that; let her take her own way. Do not
even force her 10 come to you if she does
not wish it, but let her be in the room,
outside the bed. Sooner or later she
will come in and nurse you al no other

or even the face Of a cat will often pro
duce a feeling Of drowsiness, leading to
sleep. Cultivate the friendship of pussy,
and YOU will never regret it. -
Asa pendant to the above, may give
the following incident which happened
in my own family, and which shows
how powerfully magnetic is the cat Z
influence on its prey. One morning my
daughter (then quite child), on going
into the garden early, was surprised at
seeing the favorite cat crouching on the
ground, perfectly motionless, with it,
eyes fixed on rat which maintained
the same position opposite to her. So en-
tirely was the latter transfxed BY the
gaze of its enemy that it never moved
when the child went quietly forward,
and gently taking mp the rat bv the neck
carried it into the adjoining yard. 1t re-
mained quiet in her hand, bnt on being

Animals and speech.

The theory is advanced by Bayard
Taylor that animals remember and rec
ognize the speech Of their native land.
Once, noticing in Barnumis 4 museum d
hippopotamus which wore an unmistak-
able look of detection, he spoke to it in
English. The beast did not move. Going
to another corner of the cage, he said in
Arabic:
know ycu. Come here to me. Y
The animal at once turned it's head,
and when Taylor repeated the words it
came to him, rubbed its head against
the bars and looked up at him with evil
dent delight.
