IA Breezy Time" will be at the Opera
House Tuesday, Jan. 81. AS direct
refutation OF the statement that farce
comedies are dead, here comes the new.
est, ga Breezy Time" It is an out
and out farce comedy, put together
simply and. solely for the purpose OF
making as many laugh as possible, and
altogether out OF the question the rise
and fall of the American Drama. The
piece has many more pretty women
than climaxes, more comic surprises
than coun,erplots, and more catchy
music than ingeniously worked ur
situations, but to use the American
vernacular, sit goes. !" It not only
goes, but it goes with = rush.

were evidently trying to play wild and

probably been patronizing some of

too unsteady to do any harm. They

The tendency of pipes and furnace
hues to fill with SCOT at this eason of
the year is so marked that any sugges-
ton Of convenient remedy for that
condition is worthy of serious consider
alton. Zinc burned in the furnace is
said to be very effective. Just throw
upon the fire handful of zinc filings,
or piece of sheet zinc as large as your
hand, and it clears away the SCOT as if
by magic. Once week will suffice.
Shut the door quickly after throwing in
the zinc. One family has used this
method for forty years and never had
occasion to employ chimney sweep.
This remedy is not expensive-a worn.
out zinc washboard will furnish enough
of the metal for six or eight occasions,

cents worth may suffice for single tire
