out Of Southern life. Queen Bess,
the Kentucky thoroughbred that Is to
run in the great race. the Ashland
Oaks. on the morrow is in the barn.
If she wins the race. she saves her
owners fortune. The villain seeks to
destroy the stable by fire. but is not
successful, as the heroine, Madge, arr
rives on the scene in time to give the
alarm and rescue the mare from the
burning stable. The third act shows
the great race and several other scenes
leading up to it. The villain has taken
the jockey who was to ride Queen Bess
and gotten him drunk, and to save the
day, the heroine, Madge, consents to
ride the race, which she wins with fly
ing colors and amid much enthusiasm.
A short fourth act brings everything
to a satisfactory conclusion, after re-
vealing pretty love scene between
Madge and her sweetheart.
The cast, it is promised, will be the
strongest that has ever appeared in
the play. The character of the hero
inc, Madge Briefly, will be assumed by
Miss Bessie Barrescale. This will be
her second season in the role.

and an abundance of dramatic cpl
sodes and stirring climaxes. The plot
is laid in the blue grass region OF Ken
lucky, and presents as it's chief hgure
a simple, but warm hearted mountain
girl, who has loved above her station,
but with the sincerity which brings
her out triumphant.
The characters are admirably intro
duced, and double interest is created.
involving the contention between the
hero and the youth who thinks him
self wronged, on the one hand and the
hero and the villain on the other. When
the bridge over the chasm is shot away
to prevent the heroine coming to the
aid of her wounded lover. and when
to save him the girl bravely swings
over the chasm with the help of a
hanging rope, the interest is intense,
but the climax Is not reached until she
filings over the precipice the dynamite

at his side. With roar it explodes
as 1t drops into the valley, and the
curtain falls.

the other characters, the realism OF the
various scenes, the wonderful stimulation
of the blizzard. the strength OF the com
pany and the power Of the third act
scene. These things in some measure Will
tell why Way Down East fills the thea
ters season after season. Added to this Is
the fact that the cast is kept up to Its
original standard of excellence. while the
production is made more elaborate each
succeeding season.

my wife was very much run down

medicine he had there for sale. / got
a bottle and read the printed matter

1t would probably not do any harm to
try it. She said If 1t did not taste bad
ly she would try 1t.
80 we brought a bottle of II home
and within a week she commenced to
eat, and now she is hungry all the time
and not half of the medicine has been
taken. We both agree that 1t beats
any medicine to bring on an appetite
and to get the nerves in good shape
that we have ever had anything to do
with.
Il have not the slightest doubt but
that your medicine has saved her from
a long spell of sickness, If nothing
more. All my family had begun to
get uneasy, but, of course, she did not
know 1t, and I have only just told her
of it since she has improved so much.

'In cases where the patient is very
