AN 1MPROMPrU SEA VOYAGE.

A Portland party Of young ladies and
gentlemen who went down to Peaks
island to enjoy a dance at the Eighth
Maine building, found when they were
ready TO return that through some mis-
understanding there was no steamer to
take them. After some vigorous hustling
around, a man was found with a sloop
who agreed to make the trip. This was
better than remaining at the islands all
night and the party embarked and set
sail. The trip was not the most comfort
able IN the world, as the party WASH {
dressed for a sea voyage, but they We're
finally landed safe in port.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
UNDERWOOD SPRING.

The concert given by the Fadettes yes
terday deserves special mention, for 1t
was one of the best they have yet pro-
duced. The opening piece was "The Blue
and the Gray" by Dresser, the compos-
er of so many of the popular songs of the
day, and it introduced several well
known songs, ending with bits of Sousa' s
marches. IN the agmposla waltzes are
interviewer some Is ths popular values
familiar to everybody. The Drum Major
selection is really a drum solo, and Miss
Ethel McDonough acquitted herself with
much credit. She has to play all the
instruments that fall to the lot Of the
drummer and her part was therefore de-
cidedly interesting. Miss Annie White
played a good corneb solo. The Scottish
closing number gave the audience many
national airs. From the brasses is heard
plaintive song, and then the sound of
the bagpipes announces that "The Camp
bells Are Coming Next week there is
to be double bill, when G. j. German IS

incidents upon which the drama is found
ed occurred at that town and may be

Following this play was u farce en-
titled Done on Both Sides, written by
John Madison Morton.
After the entertainment the steamer

HEALTHY SCHOOLMA'AM.
Found out How to Feed Herself.

Many school teachers, at the end of
their year work, feel thoroughly ex-
hausted ana worn out, physically and
mentally. The demand upon the nerves
and brain of teacher is unusual and
unless they are well fed and fe1 upon
properly selected food, it Is natural that
they should run down,
A little woman teacher at Gobleville,
Mich who has been teaching regularly
for a number of years, has always found
herself thoroughly exhausted at the end
OF the session, until within the last year,
she has made use OF Grape-Nuts Food
with the result that she closed the year
as a robust healthy, strong, vigorous
woman, haying gained in weight from 90
pounds to 1876; her nerves strong, face
bright and CHEEKY, and really a wonder
to all her friends, who constantly som-
ment on her color and strength. She
knows exactly to what the change is at
tributed, for in the years past, living on
ordinary food, she has almost broken
down before the school year closed,
whereas since using Grape-Nuts, this
change has been brought about; evidence
prima facie of the value of Grape-Nuts
Food for rebuilding the brain and nerve
centers
The name of the teacher can be given
by Postum Cereal Co., Ltd. Battle Creek

GEM

Too Much Johnson continues to draw
large sized audiences at each perform
ance. What makes William Gillette
plays so successfulg That is the ques-
ton at present that seems to agitate the
minds of the Gem S patrons. William
Gillette has to write "a poor play and
it is his entire absence OF conventionaIf-
ty that makes his dramatic work smack
of the novelty. AS a dramatist he has
introduced a new school OF drama and a
style which other writer's are prone to
initiate. For example in his Too Much
johnson when Augustus Billings relates
his experiences to the steward he escapes
the old fashioned solloquy by introduce
ing the character of the steward, break,
ing what would otherwise have been a
monotous monologue. All through his
plays the patrons viii find that same
tendency toward a natural vein which is
really the keynote of his successful play
