Morrison's Version of Faust, Fills
the Odeon.

Morrison's Version of ssFaust" Fills
/. the Odeon.
Morrison's dramatized version of
Faust" which has been presented here
number of times, attracted an audience
at the Odeon last night that taxed the
seating capacity of the theater Quak-
ers, Christians, Methodists and good
people of other religious denomna-
tons, and others with no church aftilia-
tions, attended to see a demonstration
of the wiles of the devil and to have
pointed out to them the cost of one
little error or wrong deed. The play is
a sermon in itself, and seems to have
lost none of its popularity. The pre-
senting company this year is very cap
able, although not as strong in come
respects as heretofore. Walter McCul-
Tough, young actor who is making a
reputation for himself is playing Me-
phisto, and is winning much favor in
the peculiar role. In enunciatton and
expression he excels even Morrison
himself, but his laugh, which is one of
the important parts of the character, is
not so self satisfactory and demoniacal.
Mccullough, however. has the natural
talent to excel in this and better things.
and will be heard from later.
William Richards as Faust was lacking
/ in both ardor and voice. Augusta True
| Marguerite was acceptable, While Adj
die Farwell's Martha was a fine bit of
character work, and Edwin Gallagher
! Valentine was strong.
The special scenery and electrical ef-
fects We're elaborate and the piece was
well dressed and eXcellently staged
MIR. MeCullough is an old friend OF
! Manager Speers OF the Odeon, and USED
TO work with him as an operator in Chi
Ecago. AT that time Mr.. Mccullough was
pursuing his dramatic studies and pre-
i pairing to make the most of his talents
IS He has since been rising gradually II
j his chosen profession.

ways attended with more danger than
from q cold to warm temperature,
hence the greater mortality from lung
and throat diseases at this season of
the year as compared with spring.
The best protection against colds is
not 80 much in extra clothing as in
good digestion.
1f the circulation and digestion are

Poor digestion causes poor circula=
ton Of the blood and when in this con-
dition severe colds are contracted on
the slightest provocation.
People who make regular practice
Of taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after meals are free from colds, simply
because their digestion Is perfect, the
heart strong and regular and the whole
system fortified against disease.
1t requires little argument to con-
vince any one that the best safeguards
against colds, pneumonia and changes
OF temperature is a good stomach.
atuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken
after meals are dissolved and mingling
with the food cause 1t to be promptly
digested and assimilated; they do this
because they contain nothing but
harmless digestive elements, which d.
gest meat, eggs and other food even
when the stomach itself is weak and
faced.

make daily use Of them at meals to
keep the digestive organs strong and
