An Extraordinary Engagement Of one
Night.

sporting Life" is the signifcan.
title Of a pretentious English melo-
drama to be produced at the Brooks
theater next Saturday. The piece en-
joyed prosperous run of six months
in New York at the Academy Of Music,
and a record breaking engagement of
five months at Mcvicker's theater,
Chicago, last season, and comes here
heralded as the most elaborate pro
auction of melodrama ever given in
America. hTis claim would appear to
be borne out by the marvellous des-
cription of the scenery provided,
there being no less than 12 distinct
scenes, several of them OF astonish-
ing magnitude. A genuine training
stable, occupied by several genuine
race horses. is one of the attractive
features. A massive production of
the ancestral home of the Earl of
Woodstock from the famous painting,
"The Day of Reckoning" is regarded
as a masterpiece of the scene paint
er's art. Then there is very elabor-
ate view of the Earl's court exhibi-
uon grounds, showing tn numerous
booths, buildings and amusement de
vices, all brilliantly Illuminated; the
interior OF the National Sporting club,
London. the boxes and stalls occupied
all in evening dress; and, lastly, a
splendid view of the EPSON Downs
race course on Derby day. There are
numerous other scenes Of lesser mag
nitude, but all admirably designed and
executed. In preparing this gigantic
production, the management found it
necessary to make requisition upon
all the leading studios Of New York,
entailing an enormous outlay, but Sc
curing the benefit of the artistic
genius OF those distinguished masters:
Joseph Physioc, Ernest Albert, Homer
Emens, oJhn Young, Gates G. Nor
ange, Hart & Becker and F. Platter.
To crowd so much diversity of seen
cry into FIVE acts necessitates some of
the most rapid changes of scene ever
witnessed, and the amazing celebrity
with which these changes are made is
one of the wonderful features Of the
production. There is no delay in the
action OF the piece, and the lightning
like transportation of the spectator
from one picture to another is said to
be positively startling.

Guthrie osCss,

The general cerdict Of the theater-
going public this season is that Mark
E. Swans three act farce Whose
Baby Are Your" that is billed to make
its appearance here at the Brooks
Wednesday night. Is the funniest and
cleyerest piece Of farcical construc-
ton that has been seen on the stage
for several years. The piece was
built for laugh making purposes only.
That is its only excuse for existence.
It is to be considered as sort OF a
dramatic patent medicine to cure the
blues and it is an accepted tact by
most physicians that next to fresh air
and sunshine, laughter is natures
cure for all mental ills. Whose
Baby Are Your" is sort Of jolly hur-
rst from start to finish. The story
IS complicated and a funny one. The
characters are said to be the incefha-
tion Of the spirit OF humor. A clever
company OF farceurssdirect from New
York win interpret the farce.
We hope that by next Saturday
night, when wc expect 70 take one,
hat the wise men win have decided
which Is the less injurious; a hot OF
cold bath.

WHAT ooEs UP
Must Come Down.

Nothing is more certain than that
the use Of so called tonics stimulants
and medicines. which depend upon al
cohol for their effect, is injurious to
health in the long run.
What goes up must come down and
the elevation of spirits, the temporary
exhilaration resulting from a dose of
medicine containing alcohol, will GER
tainly be followed in few hours by
corresponding depression to relieve
which another dose must be taken.
In other words, many liquid patent
medicines derive their effect entirely
from the alcohol they contain
Alcohol, and medicines containing
it. are temporary stimulants and not
in any sense a true tonic. In fact it is
doubtful If any medicine or drug is a
real tonic.
A true tonic is something which will
renew, replenish. build up the exhaust
ed nervous system and wasted tissues
Of the body, something that viii en-
rich the blood and endow it with the
proper proportions of red and white
corpuscles, which prevent or destroy
disease germs. This is what real
tonic should do and no drug or alco-
holic stimulant win do It,
The only true tonic in nature is
Wholesome food. thoroughly digested.
Every particle of nervous energy ev-
cry minute muscle, fibre and drop of
blood is created daily from the food
we digest
The mere eating Of food has little
to do with the repair Of waste tissue
but the perfect digestion of the food
eaten has every thing to do with it.
The reason so few people have per
feet digestion is because from wrong
habits of living the stomach has grad
ually lost the power to secrete the gas
trio juice, peptones and acids in suf-
hcent quantity.
To cure indigestion and stomach
troubles 1t is necessary to take after
meals some harmless preparation
which will supply the natural peptone
and diastase which every weak stom-
ach lacks, and probably the best
preparation of this character is
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which may
be found in every drug store and
which contain in pleasant palatable
form the wholesome peptone and dia-
stase which nature requires for
prompt digestion.
One or two OF these excellent tab
lets taken after meals will prevent
souring. fermentation and acidity and
insure complete digestion and assimi-
lation.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
equally valuable for little children as
for adults, as they contain nothing
harmful or stimulating but only the
natural digestives.
One of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will digest / 800 grains of meat, eggs
or other wholesome food, and they are
in every sense genuine tonic be-
cause they bring about in the only
natural way restorative of nerve
power a building up Of lost tissue and
appetite in the only way 1t can be
done by the digestion and assimila-
tion of wholesome food.

shakespeare's Most Amusing Coined,

shakespeare's Most Amusing Comedy.
Shakespeare's plays have already
lived for centuries and their popular
ity will not wane for several centuries
to come. Their longevity is easily ex-
planned for they appeal to all classes
of theater-goers. Critics have not yet
decided which of his tragedies is en-
titled to the most praise but as far as
his comedies are concerned the un-
usual verdict is that "The Tanning OF
the Shrew' is the most amusing The
opinion lends additional interest to
the announcement that a revival of
''The Tanning of the Shrew" win be
presented In this city at the Brooks
theater on December ~, by Charles
b. Hanford, who will impersonate
Petruchio. It is promised that the
production will be given on a grand
scale as far as scenery, oostuming, ef-
fects and company are concerned.
Mr.. Hanford's tour this season is
under the direction of two New York
managers, Messrs. Delcher & Bren-
nan. who have spared neither expense
nor labor to properly equip this at
traction. Miss Helen Grantly has
en specially engaged for Katherine.
