Grand Orera House. THE GAMEKEEPER, t"

Smith O'Brien and his excellent com pany are playing to large and highly pleased audiences at the Grand opera house. "The Gamekaeper," the drama
 in which they appear, holds the atten-
 tion from the rise to the fall of the
 the curtain, and everybody leaves the
 theater feeling they have been happily
 entertained. There will be a matinee
 this afternoon and the last performance
 here takes place this evening.
 HEARTS OF THE BLUE RIDGE"
 Thursday Friday and Saturday and Saturday matinee the stage of the Grand opera house will be occupied by an attraction that last March made It. self one of the most popular of the sea son. Dorothy Lewis, the petite and magnetic comedienne, surrounded by a strong company of players, will present Hal Reid's beautiful romantic play Hearts of the Blue Ridge" with spec ial scenery and accessories. Several specialties will be introduced among them, some beautiful singing and orig inal coon comedy by the famous "Blue Ridge quartet of genuine North Car olina negroes The story of the play concerns one of those family fueds which often disturb the peace of the North Carolina hills. Bob Reynolds Is in love with Missy Carter, whose re- spective parents are engaged in the desperate and bitter fued. When Mis- sy's father learns of this he sends his daughter from his roof. In the course of the fued, Acie Carter Missys broth CT, falls into the hands of the enemies of his house and Is subsequently, killed by one of the Reynolds fingered at this treachery Bob leaves his father and married Missy, whose father has relented sufficiently to permit them to live under his roof, but who refuses to notice them. The last act shows the kitchen of the Carter homestead, with Missy's child in the cradle. Finally the grandfathers shake hands over the cradle of their grandson and all ends happily.

HIS VALEDICTORY.
Editor Reyes Pays His Respects to
 Fellow Townsmen.

Editor Reyes Pays His Respects to
 Fellow Townsmen.
 Editor Irving J, Reyes, of the Milford Citizen, who has been operating that | plant under lease for the past year, has evidently been trendlng path not strewn with roses, and after an event. | ful experience among the dwellers of the conservative shore town has thrown up the sponge. Tn his "Farewer' edi- torial, he cites the causes of his deter imitation and causally bestows his caustic benediction upon the unappre- ciative element of the community to whose negative support he attributes the necessity for his action. Among other things the editor says:
 "The retiring editor has, for most of the time since assuming control of the paper, worked fully eighteen or twenty hours out of each twenty-four. He has tried to conciliate factional strife, avoiding politics and endeavored to build up a good local paper, without dollar of capital. He has been reward ed for overworking by thfee months of nervous prostration and that Is all. l sional men who have advertised in the Citizen have our hearty thanks. Those whose skulls God made so thick and their hearts so bigoted that they can see no mitigating circumstances in the mistakes or shortcomings of others, are welcome to preserve within their mar row mental faculties any opinions they may have formed of either the Citizen or it's editor.
 This action on our part is entirely voluntary. We don't care particularly about falling dead while turning the big wheel of a newspaper press in or der to save seventy-five cents; and as three reputable specialists have repeat edly warned us that such Is likely to be the end, we are constrained to fol- low their advice and confine our hum- ble efforts to the pen instead of divid- ing honcrs between that useful article and the lifting of heavy forms" of iron and type metal
 "We hope the Citizen will yet be- come a successful local newspaper, but there must be radical change in the attitude of the Milford people before such q consummation Is possible"

FOOD FOR GIRLS. Should Be Fed Just Right When
 Growing.

When parents are at a loss to know what kind of food to supply their boys and girls it will interest them to know of the experience of some mothers In the selection of food that actually does rebuild and nourish the young folks in their school duties.
 A school girl in Springfield, Mass, writes, "I wonder If you care to hear from schoolgirls, and I wonder, too, if you have any idea how many girls there are who are troubled as I was before I used Grape-Nuts Food.
 About a year ago I began to have severe headaches and could not sleep we'll Was so nervous that I would cry at the least little thing, and finally began to have attacks of faintness. My parents were much alarmed and thought would be obliged to give up studying. Our physician said my trouble was extreme nervousness and a disordered stomach
 I was tired all the time and rode home from school because I did not feel able to walk, Mother tried to tempt my appetite in every way, Breakfast I did not care for. Meat I could not endure, and the different ce- reals I did not like, as a rule.
 I attended the high school and we have an excellent lunch room in the building As I kept getting worse Mamma said T am going to try this Grape Nuts Food that I see adver- tised. but I am afraid you will not like it. We'll, she got package of 1t and it was so delicious in taste, with lit tie cream poured over it, that I liked it at once, and since then Grape-Nuts has formed the principal part of my breakfast I have also a banana or orange with now and then an egg.
 I wish you could see the difference in me. I cannot tell how much I have gained in weight, for I did not know my weight when I was ill., but the difference Is great. As for strength, I walk both ways to school and do not feel at all weary from it.
 I can study much better and am en- tirely free from headaches I am so well, in fact, that I am very happy. I fall asleep almost as soon as my head touches the pillow and rest thoroughly
 I am afraid my letter is lengthy, but my subject Is Grape-Nuts, of which I cannot say too much" Clara l.. Con don.
 The mother adds to this letter, 1T would like to add just a line expressing my gratitude also for the benefits which my daughter has derived from Grape-Nuts. Respectfully, Mrs. l. c. | Condon.'
