The New National Theatre .-"The
Princess and the Butterfly" is a comedy
highly characteristic of its author, A. W.
Pinero. 1t aims to satirize certain social
conditions in which design it is eminently
successful, and to tell a story sufficiently in
teresting to hold the attention uninterrupt-
eddy. 1t is a fine play, and has won the
cordial approval of all cultivated persons, as
well as their material support. 1t particu
larry commends itself to those sensitive souls
who are forever complaining of the degen-
eracy of the stage and of the lack Of plays of
literary value. Here is one to suit them,
which has, besides its literary value, posi-
tive dramatic vitality and charm that goes
over the footlights in the performances.
Interpreted by Daniel Frohman's Lyceum
Theatre Stock Company. the princess and
the Butterfly" will open at the New Ma
tional Threatre for week only, commencing
Monday, April 18th.

THE FIRST EASTER MORN.
BY w. MACK REIcHE.

In the spring ofyouth, chaste, unsullied
maiden is the superlative mediator between
man and his maker She's mans elevation,
and will aim to enthrone him upon the pin
nacle of perfection. Her soul is sweeter
than the fragrance of flowers her word Is
a safe.way guide.post; the fervor Of youth,
and the eloquence of love can never usurp
the place of God in her heart She locks
loves links with the key of inspiration that
comes only from holy heaven. And thus
accoutered, she wins and wears the crown
of victory.

No. 1897 is the Best Of all R, & c, Numbers,

THE R. & 6. sells because it deserves to sell Its
fame spreads by "mOuth-tO-ear Advertising
Comfortable women tell uncomfortable women that abSO-
lutte corset comfort comes only with the R. & G. Once
find the right R. g. number and your corset troubles are
over The r. G. is the only corset that will not stretch
with 1t the only corset that does not have to be
"bro<en in.
When the r & G. Corset has been cut and stitched
and bounced it is dampened. Then it is stretched a
steam-heaed hollow iron form. This is the supreme
test. The iron form is just right 1t is modelled after
perfect human figure The corset must fit it exactly, or it
isn't right If it doeSn- the cutter has WaVered par
ce if the stitcher has varied from the pattern-the form
shows it. That corset is thrown out 1t never bears the
"R. O." trademark. If the corset fits exactly, without
the suspicion of wrinkle it is clamped in place and the
steam turned on end every hars-breadth of stretch is
taken out of the goods
This gives permanency to the right shape and FORM
which will stay in it until the last day you wear it
That is why the r. & @. CorSetS always fit.
That is why they fit first last and always.
That is why the right size is always gh-your size is
always your size

i,ihering to the protective tariff, which they
we're pledged to repeal. These circumstances
will give the opposition plenty OF material ior
attacks upon the Government. and there Is no
doubt that il will be used on all possible occa-

lons will also give rise 10 acrimonious DEBATES,
