"Alice Of Old Vincenne..v

Virginia Harmed, whom Charles Frohman
presents at the National Theater week
from next Monday, was last seen in this
city under another management as co-star
with her husband, E. H. Sothern She now
reappears as an Independent star and in a
new play. about which the public is some
what familiar because it is a dramatiza-
ton by Edward E. Rose of the late Maurice
Thompson's fascinating novel Of revolu-
tionary days, Alice Of Old Vincennes."
It is an open secret that Miss Harmed
was regarded by the deceased author as the
living prototype Of the heroine of his story
He accordingly named her as the actress
for the role, should the play ever be dram-
atized When Mr.. Frohman's attention
was called to this, just prior to Mr.. Thomn-
sons demise, he secured her as well as the
stage rights to the book, and soon had
the dramatist, Edward E. Rose. at work
on the adaptation. And all this has turned
out most favorably for star manager and
dramatist alike for the play scored an i'm
mense hit in New York, Boston and the few
other cities where it has been PLAYED. and
Miss Harmed has not only demonstrai ed
that Mr. Thompsons choice of her for the
character of his Alice was fully iusttied
but she has won a personal triumph in the
title role fully up to the great distinction
she won few years ago as Trilby.
The company with which Mr. Frobma
has surrounded Miss Harmed is a very
strong one, while the scenic appointments
are praised for their lavish nature and the
novel light and color effects

NOT DUE TO CLIMATE.


Catarrh is at home anywhere and
everywhere. While more common in
cold, changeable climates, it is by no
means confined to them, but is preva-
lent in evry state and territory in the
union.
The common definition of catarrh is
a chronic cold in the head. which If
long neglected often destroys the sense
of smell and hearing; but there are
many other forms of the disease, even
more obstinate and dangerous
Catarrh of the throat and bronchial
tubes as well as catarrh of the stomach
and liver are almost as common as
nasal catarrh and generally more diff
ficult to cure.
Catarrh is undoubtedly a blood dis
ease and can only be successfully eradi-
Gated by an internal treatment. Sprays,
washes and powders are useless as
far as reaching the real seat Of the
disease is concerned.
DR.. McIverney advises catarrh suf-
ferers to use a new preparation, sold
by druggists, called Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, because actual analysis has
shown these tablets to contain certain
antiseptic qualities of the highest value
and being an internal remedy, pleasant
to the taste. convenient and harmless,
can be used as freely as required, as
Well LOT CuliQitn DIS Tot dQufIS.
An attorney and public speaker, who
had been catarrh sufferer for years,

Every fall would catch a cold
which would settle in my head and
throat and hang on all winter long
and every winter II seemed 10 get a
little worse. l was continually clear

From the New York Times.
The man who spends half his life
trying to classify people said he never
saw so many left-eyed passengers in
one car.
What do you mean by left-eyed pas
sengers?" asked his companion.
people who use their left eyes more
than their right" was the reply. The
species is not common, and, of course,
none but student in ocular science
would be able to detect offhand the
few whom we do meet. A left-hand-
ed person advertises his popularity at
once; not so the left-eyed man. AS a
rule IL takes an oculist to determine
which eye has been used most, but
there are certain peculiarities OF the
pupil and lid that may be taken as
pretty sure signs by the trained OBJ
server.
eft-eyed people are made, not
born. Most of us have been blessed by
nature with eyes of equal visual power.
but the attitude we strike reading or
writing causes us to exercise one eye
more than the other. and the first thing
we know we are right or left-eyed.
This is a ne-sidedness that should al
ways be taken into consideration when
buying glasses. A right-eyed man with
left-eyed spectacles, or vice versa, Is
at a decided disadvantage, and 1t Is
the opticians business to see that he
is properly fitted"
