from Joseph Hatton's famous novel
of the same name. Manager NJ. w.
Hanley claims to present not only a
splendid scenic and costume pro-
duction. but also the strongest array of
companion players that have ever ap-
peared in support of this fine actor,
and consequently splendid perfor-
nance may be expected. The char
acter of Roubellac, the Italian artist
of the period of 1864, affords Mr..
Mantell, it is said, the best opportun-
ity he has ever had to display his
powers as q romantic actor. and as
scenery and costumes count for much
these days in a plays success. there
will be lavish display of these in the
present instance.
Charles Frohman's company in
The Little Minister" has been one of
the most remarkable successes known
to the theatrical world. This compa-
ny will present the comedy at the
Burtis Tuesday evening. The novel
had one of the largest sales of any
book ever published, and in making
the dramatization of it, which was
done by j. NJ. Barrie, the author. he
has given to the stage one of the
greatest plays produced in many
years. Certainly no play presented in
the last century has achieved such re-
markable success as has The Little

When The Great Northwest" was
first produced in New York City sew
eral dramatic critics declared that it
was impossible for any woman to
make the terrific swing on the giant
windmill which occurs 10 the fourth
act. They believed that it must be
done by an acrobat disguised as e
woman, as the danger seemed to them
so grear that no actress would attempt
the feat. One critic remarked that it
was much more perilous than the
swing of Mrs. Leslie Carter from the
bell in The Heart of Maryland, and
that it could only be done by al ath-
lete. Not until they we're taken back
on the stage during the performance
and saw the actress playing the part
climb the arm of the windmill aud
perform the daring feat before their
eyes were they convinced that this
scene was exactly as advertised Peo-
pie who appreciate thrilling scenes on
the stage should visit the Burtis next

strated proofs and is now winning its
resistless way into the affections of
men because it is meeting the needs
of humanity in the case of sickness as
we'll as in other kindred evils.
lone of the declarations of Christian
Science is that it is the science of
healing and it promises to abolish
disease from human experience. 1t
explains Jesus healing as being based
on science and natural law and as
furnishing evidence that all diseases
are curab'e and will so appear when
the science of healing and the rules
thereof are understood aud applied.
I'm attestation of the truth of this.
Christian Science has healed practi-
cally every known disease. including
the long list of diseases which, ac-
cording to materia medica. have been
accounted incurable. According to
this science the plan and way which
Jesus Christ made known and demon
strated as the way of salvation, in
cludes salvation from sickness and
death. He demonstrated that the
way of life and not the way of sick
ness and death leads to the doorway
of heaven.
To-day humanity is dismayed and
cast down by the dire mistake of re-
garding God as wrathful being Who
has ordained for man sickness and
death. Such a dreadful sense of God
prostrates hope and the expectation
that He has any law or willingness to
intervene between the sufferer and
his miserable doom. Christian Sci
ence reveals God as the Healer of all
thy diseases, and through this gospel
and ministry of healing and deliver
ance bids man hope to the uttermost
for salvation, not after death, but now.
Christian Science has healed near
" two million instances of disease.
Thousands of drunkards in the bond
age of hereditary or acquired vice
have found that it does two things
that neither drugs nor resistance have
ever done: 1t destroys appetite and
reinstates the lost will and control. 1t
is making people happier, better and
healthier 1t equips them with
larger dominion over fear, pain and
disease. 1t increases the capacity to
do business and to control circum-
stances and is of assistance in every
hour and circumstance of life.
Right Doing for Sin.
The man who is touched by its in
huence finds himself more devout but
less gloomy, more confident and self
reliant, but less conceited and vain
glorious. He loses the supposed
pleasure of sin to find the satisfaction
of right doing. He becomes more
just, tolerant, upright and pure. He
learns the art of loving his neighbor
aud learns to be merciful and forgiv-
ing. He experiences yearning for
higher and more spiritual life and the
mind of Christ which overcomes sin
and sickness and establishes the king
dom of heaven within.
Christian Scientists rejoice be-
cause they are proving it's verify and
realizing in a measure the fruition of
the promises that have been the hope
of the ages. Multitudes of men and
women are throughout this land
gratefully and constantly testifying
to the results of Christian Science and
impressing the world with the salient
fact that some supreme influence is
working out n wonderful deliverance
for the people of this generation"
