The Valentine Theatre, Jan. Is,
10 and 90.

But few plays written for the
American stage have attracted such
widespread attention as James A.
Hern's homely picture of farm life
on the New England coast. There is
something extremely refreshing in
the title "Shore Acres" 1t smells of
the sea. The story Mr.. Hern tells is
powerful one. Not no much in
what Is expressed as in what is left to
the Imagination. The author in
''Shore Acres" shows the beauties of
realism. Other writer's have shown
its darker side; Mr. Hern shows its
brighter side. His play has been
publicly commended for the good it
has done. 1t does not, however, deal
with religion, and its characters are
simple. everyday people, who know
little of the worlds strifes and strug.
giles. In their rock-bound village
they are living quiet, unpretentious
lives, and teaching through Mr..
Hern's genius a lesson of love and
self-sacrifice. There are no thrilling
dramatic climaxes in "Shore Acres"
and there is hardly anything that is
unnatural. The players do not at
tempt to do any heroic acting in
''Shore Acres" and they never crowd
the centre of the stage, but always
impress you as doing just what the
people they are representing would
be doing in just such circumstances.
An artistic Interpretation of "Shore
Acres will be given at the Valentine
Theatre, Toledo, during the first half
of the coming week, with its author,
James A. Hern, in his original crea-
ton of Nathaniel Berry. There will
be an excellent supporting company
and entire new scenery. Remember
the management of the Valentine
Theatre positively guarantee that
this is the original company and
james A. Hern will appear every
eyeninr.

IFrom the Lima Times Democrat, Jan. 81
NOT ENCOURAGING.
INDICATIONS ARE THAT The LIMA
NORTHERN SHOPS
Will Go To Napoleon.

There is every evidence at present
that Lima will not get the Lima
Northern shops, or that the city will
be given an opportunity to endeavor
to secure them. The indications are
that Napoleon is to be division ter
minal, and that shops of at least a
small capacity will be located there.
1t may be possible that only small
shops. such as are necessary at any
railroad division terminal, will be TO-
Gated at Napoleon, and that the
main shops will be built elsewhere,
but while that may be possible it is
not the probable case, and if the
Lima Northern and Ohio Southern
roads are consolidated, the main
shops for both roads will be located
at one place, and Napoleon is likely
to be the favored town.
For some time the Lima Northern
railroad has been purchasing and lees
ing land and, up to the present time,
It remained mystery as to what real
purpose the company had in so doing.
Yesterday it was learned officially.
says the Toledo Blade, that Napoleon
VIII likely get the company's shops.
because that place is going to be the
end OF a division, which certainly
necessltates repair shops at least.

DIR, yiers Sick.

DR.. E. L. Viers has been lying SER
iously i'll at his home for the past two
weeks. His case has been somewhat
of ~ mystery to himself as well Us the
other local practitioners. He has
experienced no pain but is extremely
weak and nervous. DR. e. b. Harri-
son came down from Napoleon
Thursday and held consultation
with Drs. Ennes and Haag. Their
opinion is that there is nothing
alarming in the doctors condition,
and they settled on courSe of treat
ment which they think will insure
his rapid recovery. We hope to see
the doctor able to resume his prac-
tice in few days. Liberty Press.

Diamonds i'm Ohio.

The finding of valuable and pecu-
liar stone by John Taylor, an eight
year-old farmer boy of Clermont
county, the other day, proved to be a
pure diamond. The stone was exam
ined by an expert, who pronounced it
one of the purest of diamonds, and
paid $500 for it in the rough. The
boy found the diamond on hillside
on his fathers farm. The find has
caused much excitement in the vicin-
ity, and the all important question
now is how did the stone get there?
1t is possible that there is a diamond
deposit near from which it became
separated, or is it the result of gal
ciol action?

Exposure to Disease

Does not necessarially mean the con.
traction of disease provided the sys-
tenn is in u vigorous condition, with
the blood pure and all the organs in
healthy action. When in such q con
dition contagion is readily resisted
and the disease germs can find no
lodgment. Hoods Sarsaparilla is the
best medicine to build up the system
because 1t makes pure, rich blood,
and pure blood is the basis of good
health. In cold weather it is especi-
ally necessary to keep up the health
tone because the body is subject to
greater exposure and more liable to
disease. Hoods Sarsaparilla is the
safeguard of health.

Daisy Correspondents.

The Toledo papers have daisy Ma
poleon correspondents. Last week
one reported the Napoleon Fair Co.
bankrupt and that it would have no
fair this year, which is about as far
from the truth as he could we'll get,
while another said the Lima North
ern had leased nearly 40 acres of land
here for "Y' and division purposes,
which meant shops for Napoleon!
This latter correspondent only
escapes being made out a prevarica-
tor by his adding the word nearly
in stating the number of acres leased,
Let him cut this nearly in half, and
then that result in half again, and he
would have come nearer the num-
ber of acres leased by the railroad.

Ohio Game Law Restricts Hum
terS i'm This ReSDect.

Certain hunters have an impress
ion that the Ohio fish and game law
is unconstitutional, so far the section
relating to the killing of rabbits is
concerned. Rabbits may not be
killed now, unless they are damaging
crops, young trees and certain other
property. Hunters have signifed
their intention to hunt rabbits in the
county, and if they do and do not
keep strictly within the provinces of
the law, they will be arrested by the
wardens, with resultant fines.-folo-
