Motherhood ought always to bring
happiness. But it is often the begin
ming of lifelong unhappiness. AS pre-
paration for motherhood, and as pre-
ventive of the ills so often following
maternity DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription has been hailed as a 'God-send
to women" 1t heals diseases peculiar
to women, tones up the system, makes
motherhood practically painless, and es-
tab1ishes the sound health which insures
healthy children.

| The first opportunity afforded Washing

that make polite vaudeville so potent as
a paying amusement will be presented by
Manager Chase at the New Grand this
week. In engaging this noted singer, stili

not needed, proof of the generous policy
animating his operations at the New Grand.
and that it is reaping the success deserved
is abundantly plain to those who marvel
al the immense audiences drawn nightly
to this popular theatre. This season is Miss
D'ATville's first in polite vaudeville, and,
by right of her fame, beauty, and vocal
genius, she stands at the head of the stel-
lar attractions in this new sphere OF re-
fined entertainment. Certain II Is that,

places her In her prominent position. No
chroncling OF Miss D'Arville's triumphs
as the leading prima donna OF the ia=t
decade is needed to attract the many wno
heard her as Maid Marian in robin Hood
with the Bostonians. She invested that
charming role with beauty and voice all
her own, and her success in 1t has never
been equaled. Miss DArville's selections
cover the whole range of her wonderful
voice, and comprise popular songs as well
as more classic numbers. Another notable
feature of the bill is Baby Lund the ju-
venile, whose precocity is genius and not
incubated Intelligence. Although a wee
mite Of seven years, she possesses the
grace and ease OF a mature artistic. Others

The Marine Bind Coucert

Many of the regular attendants at the
White House and Capitol concerts of the
Marine Band during the summer season
have expressed the desire TO hear the band
under the more favorable surroundings of
a regular concert hall or theatre To these
it will doubtless afford qualification to
learn that on the 18th of May the band is
to render concert in one of the theatres
of the city for the benefit of local chart
ties. A number OF prominent society peo-
pie have been interested and the event
bids fair to eclipse all others Of the season
in point Of interest and successful man

composed of forty-five members will
doubtless contribute TO the attractiveness
OF the programme.
