 The Hungarian Band.
 "Strolling about leisurely there is the sound of music it comes up through the night In strains sweet then sad, and we know it is the Hungarian band on its native heath. Following the sounds we find ourselves in wayside inn, up on the mountain side It was a queer hostlery; tables are scattered about and a goodly crowd is gathered, Candles in high stands, enclosed in globes, were brought out. one side of the place, as a background, has painted scenery behind It. in another corner a most realistic pump does active duty. On the other side, in the house, the kitchen is open to full view. The stars are coming out and the wind is softly stirring the leaves of the trees. Darkness has settled, and as we look around we feel the influence of the shadows. The Gypsy band in the cor ner is tuning up. they play and we are singled out as strangers, and they play to us Such wierd plantive music, then so startling that it breaks into loud chords,
 like the laughter Of woodland nymphs The musicians seem to enter into the very spirit of it; the low plalntlve chord repeated again and again. sad, sorrowfu fearful. The leader, dark and swarthy in the dim light, sways backward and forward, and from side to side; he seems to draw all the music there is hidden in the soul, the traditions of centuries seem sung before one, the wild notes of the Gypsy nature are enrolled like the songs of the wild birds; and in the wayside inn of the Hungarian mountains, this Gypsy band is the fine exponent of the unwritten music, the traditional love lore and the wild chantings of an untutored race"

 Whether considered as a supreme piece of stagecraft or as merely glorif1ed novel, the result remains the same: Sherlock Holmes as a play is a sue cess, and both Herbert Kelcey as the i'm perturbable detective and Fife shannon as Miss Falkner are entitled to more than passing credit for having made 1t so. From a view standpoint Sherlock Holmes" in book form was unquestion- ably sufficient to stamp his creator, Sir A. Conan Doyle, as a past master or clever, imaginative construction. Made into a play by William Gillette, it Is a triumph of ingenious trickery. and no- body knows the tricks of the stage better than Gillette.
 In technique and adroitness of con struction, in mechanism so clever that 1t conceals itself (and the art of concealing are approximates genius), in specious ar gument smartness of device and cunning ness of both aural and optical delusion, "Sherlock Holmes" is said to have no rival

U. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA
Recommends Pe-ru-na
For Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble.
Catarrh Of the Stomach is Generally
Called Dyspepsia - Something
to Produce Artificial Diges-
ton is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and Host
Of Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat OF the Difficulty, Which
Is Really Catarrh.

Tx. u. S. Senator NJ. c. Butler from
South Carolina, was Senator from
- that state for two terms. In a re-
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co.,
from Washington, ID. c., says:
"I can recommend Peruna for dys-
pepsis and stomach trouble. have
been using your medicine for a short
period and I feel very much relieved.
IL Is indeed a wonderful medicine be-
sides a good tonic. IN. ca Butler. .
The only rational way to cure dyspepsia
is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial
digestion. 1t cures catarrh and leaves the
stomach to perform digestion in a natural
way. This is vastly better and safer than
resorting to artificial methods.
Peruna has cured more cases of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies combined,
simply because it cures catarrh wherever
located. If catarrh is located ia the head
Peruna cures it. II catarrh has fastened
itself in the throat or bronchial tubes,
Peruna cures II. When catarrh becomes
settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it, as
well in this location as in any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for dys-
pepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is gen
orally dependent upon catarrh.
