STREET CAR ETIQUETTE.
Audible Thanks of Woman Given n

That the dispute as to whether man

in favor OF the woman If she gives a
proper acknowledgment of the cour-

evening recently frmly believes, says
the Chicago Tribune.
1t was raining hard, with n driving
wind. There is limit even TO the ca
pacity of trolley car Standing room
and crowding room seemed exhausted,
but a short, ruddy-faced woman
squeezed her way into the car, dragging
by the hand a small boy.
A man arose and gave her his seat.
The woman dropped into it and smiled
beamingly. Adjusting her skirts, she
took the boy on her lap, and, turning TO
the right and to the left, bestowing
smiles and mods with equal impartiali-
ty, she said in a clear voice, that was
heard from one end Of the car to the
other;
wei, really, now, don't know why
it is, but | never get on to street car
but some nice man gets up and gives me

The men ducked their heads little
lower behind the evening papers. but

amid n general laugh, they arose and
offered their seats Go the long line Of

The young mother thinks, when she has
completed the baby garments that are to
clothe the little form But she is not all
ready for baby's coming, unless she has
done something more for the baby than
merely to prepare his clothes. Many a
young mother who goes through hours
of pain and suffering wonders why it was
not possible to prepare in some way for
the baby's advent, and to avoid the
agony that seemed almost uncomfortable.
DIR. Pierce's Fayorite Prescription is the
one medicine for women which prepares
them perfectly, both for the burdens and
pleasures Of maternity. 1t prevents the
morning sickness from which so many
women suffer. 1t strengthens the whole
body, so that there Is no nervousness nor
anxiety. 1t promotes a healthy appetite
and causes refreshing sleep. 1t gives the
mother strength for her trial and makes
the baby's advent practically painless.
Healthy mothers have healthy children,
and it is the general testimony of those
who have used DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription as preparative for mother
hood, that the children were healthier
and happier than those born after
months of mental misery aud physical
anguish on the part of the prospective
mother.
Sick and ailiug women are invited to
consult DR.. Pierce by letter absolutely
without fee or charge. As chief consult
ing physician to the Invalids Hotel and

doctors had pronounced cure impossi-

The strong situations are well introduced, and the audience is worked up to the highest pitch of ex- citement.

 It is some years since Richard Mans field has devoted his lofty genius to the creation of light comedy role. His energies have almost uninterruptedly been directed towards the classics, al- ways with remarkable results, credita-
 ble to the drama and to himself, This year. however, he has undertaken a
 character part in a comedy. The con-
 edy is "Beaucaire," and is a classic of
 the most exquisite quality, and the role
 affords him the happiest opportunities
 for acting he has had since Beau
 BrummeP' and Prince Karl" The
 result, as generally acclaimed, is the
 most popular success Mansfield has
 evr had. "Beaucaire" is a French
 prince visiting the great English wa
 tering place, Bath, and is mistaken for a barber. He speaks only imperfect
 English. Mansfield brings out all the most amusing points of this comedy of the barber prince, speaking broken English in his most subtle and artistic way. The production consists of five exquisite settings, all of them perfect to the slightest detail, pictures of fash ionable Bath under Beau Nash. The costuming Is of the extravagant rich ness of the Louis XIV. period Richard Mansfield will be seen In "Beaucaire" at the Hyperion Saturday, November 9. Seats on sale Tuesday, November 5.
