THE oLocK cAUsEp gRoUBLE.
Actors We're Equal to the Occasion
With Light Badinage.

Behind the door in the drawing room
of the ToWnshend mansion, in Henry
Miller's play Of ID Arcy of the Guards, Z
there stands an old-fashioned clock to
give additional correctness to the care
fun planned details thereof One day
last week the property man of the com
pany was displaying, with pride to
fellow-craftsnan from another theatsr
the various unusual and artistic be-
longings OF his department. The visitor
an enthusiast upon the subject, became
greatly interested in the clock.

IT cost $3.50 and, taking the key from

clock a work to the admiration of his
delighted friend. Other things drew their
attention and as the cloclS's ticking
was very Subdued, it was left to go on
its unaccust0Ined way.
When it came time to place it upon
the stage that night some triffing OBJ

o'clock" which was to occur later A
jar OF shock must have d{slOdged the

officers gather to plan the battle, it
spoke right out in meeting IN a start

forces that evening. Looking at his
watch. he said. The attack will begin
at H. 1t is now half after s. Just then
the old clock began. slowly and pom
derously, to strike the hour and contin-
ued until eleven strokes had rung out
upon the ears of the bewildered actors
1t is these unexpected happenings
which call upon the mental alacrity of
the experienced actor to hide blunder
from the audience, and that quality was
not lacking in this instance Quickly
Mr.. Miller said;
The old clock gives We the lie, col
onel."
It's rebel clock. Jack.and unworthy
of credence." rejoined the colonel, and
then solemnly added IT'S a good omen

Don't eroak. Jack chimed in the
doctor All Irishmen are supersti-

against them"
Sure. you're not Irish, doctor, re-
piled Mr.. Miller. or you'd treat the an
cient Banshee with grave respect
And after this light badinage, which
the audience never suspected was not a
part Of the story, the play proceeded, as
usual.

Madam Marliani was right when she
said a life Of suffering was not alluring to
anyone. After suffering eleven years she
was surely fortunate to secure a remedy
that would restore her to health. She could
not get it from doctors although she went
abroad searching for relief. The power Of
Wine Of Cardui to restore weakened organs

severest tests, but it has never failed to
benefit and seldom failed to effect cure
