and rake turning, pulverizing and mark
ing the soil preparatory to depositing

like king upon garden truck raised by
his own hands. His brow sparkles with
beads Of Precipitation and his hands are
inlaid with double rows of fresh, watery
blisters which precludes all possibility
of his being styled "the horny handed
son of toll" In the upper story Of his
vest you will find packages of seeds with
life sized and highly colored photographs
of various vegetables he expects to reap
as a reward for his spring time labors.
And SO he may if the bug and the worm

When Sienkiewicz wrote Quo
Vadls" he set dramatic adapters task
which might we'll give the boldest of
them pain. The wealth of incident, the
gorgeous coloring of the tragedy, the re-
Ggious sentiment brought into contrast
with the dying paganism of luxurious
despotism offer opportunities which is
almost beyond the capacity of the stage
to reproduce with any fidelity the origi-
nal story, but the adapters of the Car
penter reversion have been successful
in the main. The sentiment of the play
is reverent and its subjects held as
hottest in the world by christians. The
play appeals strongly in setting forth
graphic picture of the debauchery and
RIGHTEOUSNESS of the period when the
Roman empire was at its height under
Nero. The dramatist has followed as
closely as possible the succession of in
cidents in the book, bringing out wildly
the desperate struggles of the christians
against the despot and his court. This
magnificent spectacle will be presented
by the Carpenter Dramatic Co. on We'd
nesaay May End, at Royal hall, Edgerton.
