also for the disposal of the body,

The tour of Miss Lamour Viii

The tour OF Miss Lamour Will
fred Clarke's brilliant comedy,"A
Wise Woman" is proving one OF
the great surprises Of the present
dramatic season, but the fact is it
simply goes to prove once more
that ii you give the public its
moneys worth you will readily
gain its support. Miss Lamour,
who for several seasons past has
been one uf the noticeably clever
members of Augustin Days
various companies, and who had
the undeniable advantage Of a
splendid training under Mr.. DAILY
personally, is undoubtedly one
OF the most interesting candidates
for stellar honors that has been
brought before the public, and
being possessed of the rare beauty
backed up with talent OF an IN
mistakable order, there is no
reason that her tour so auspicious
ly started will result in anything
but the most solid kind of success
The company that has been en-
gagged to support Miss Lamour is
OF a high order of merit. Manager

negotiations for the appearance
OF this company at the Opera
House next Wednesday night

The apparent interest win
which the engagement of Marie
Lamour and company in Wilfred
Clarke's great comedy success,
"A Wise Woman" at the Opera
House next Wednesday night
Dec. 10 is fraught. it is not to be
wondered at when one stops to
consider the personnel of the
company and the marvellous re.
cepaion accorded MI. Clarke's
play on its original presentation
at the Strand theatre, London.
GA Wise Woman" proved itself
one of the most remarkable comic
successes ever produced at that
theatre from both a box office and
artistic standpoint and the tour
of the PLAY in this country has so
far sustained the splendid reputa
ton that preceded it. Miss
Lamour, who is being featured
in the title role Is a graduate from
Augustin Days company in New

roles.
