dart in '''rhn Bonnie Brirr Bush The date Of
this engagement is Saturday matinee and night
at the Lyccum All of those familiar with tire
charming story Of Ian Maclaron, as well rs those
who know Mr.. Stoddart through his previous
approximations, can easily see why the piece
made such pronounced success in New York
city. The critics there were all q. the opinion
that Drmatist James Macarthur has carefully
preserved the atmosphere which forms the larger
part of the beauty in the kdlcyar1 stories. How
ever. it is in the character Of I.achlan Campbell,
portrayed by Mr.. S,oddaVt, that the chief inter-
cst Of the play ccntc,s. Campbell il will he 10.
membercd, is a typical Scotch elder, vino allows
his narrow interpretation of his creed to take
precedence over his love for his daughter.
The comedy element in the piece. TOO, is
strong and PERSISTENT Its chief exponent is
"Posty," whose droll philosophy and witicisms
form an excellent foil Tor the more serious nor-
tions of the play. The piece is staked and acted
with that fncness which characterzcs Krkc La
Shclles attractions.

Dr.. Hartman, the Famous Gynacolosist
and Inventor Of Pc.ru.na Offers to
Treat Women Free During the Sum.
uner Months.

America is the land Of nervous
women. The great majority of nerv-
Gus women are so because they are SUI
fering from some form of female dis
ease. By far the greatest number of
female troubles are caused by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh
despair OF recovery. Female trouble
is so common, 50 prevalent, that they
accept it as almost inevitable. The
greatest obstacle in the way of recov-
cry is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness. In female complaint,
ninety-nine cases out of one hundred
are nothing but catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh wherever located.
The following letter was recently
received:
1855 w. 3sth st., New York City.
The Peruna Medicine Co., Colum bus, o.
Gentlemen.-"What bread and meat
means to the hungry Peruna means to
the sick. It is an especially valuable
medicine for sick women. Ihave found
that no medicine so quickly restores
health and places the body in normal
condition. I but voice the sentiments
of women who were once sick, but are
now in perfect health.
MISS LIZZIE SNEATH1NG.
All women who are in doubt as to
what their trouble is should write DR..
Hartman, Columbus, Ohio. Give him
full description of your trouble, pre-
vious treatment, symptoms and age.
He will promptly reply with full direc-
tions for treatment free of charge.
This is an opportunity which no ailing
woman should miss. DR.. Hartman has
become renowned through his success
in treating women's diseases. His ex-
perience in these matters is vast. Cor
respondepce is strictly confidential.
No testimonials published without
written consent. DR.. Hartman relies
principally upon Peruna in these cases.
