Theatrical Notes

One Of the most remarkable dram4tic
productions Of the age will shortly be
presented at the Chestnut Street opera
House. Philadelphia, in THE Shepherd
King the profoundly impressive and
sumptuously produced Biblical play
based on the story Of the life OF David
from shepherd boy to King of Israel.
Wright Lorimer, who has risen quickly
TO genuine fame as an actor of the
first quality by his graceful, forcefui
and highly artistic portrayal of the
character of David, and as a skilled and
liberal producer in the magnihcence of
the scenic and costume equipment for
this great play, making it the largest
dramatic production known to the
stage Of this country. Wright Lorimer
first produced The Shepherd King at
the Knickerbocker Theatre, New York,
last spring, receiving high commenda-
ton from critics, pulpit and public.
This season "The Shepherd King" has
been presented only In Boston, where
it made such and instant sensation that
the engagement was prolonged for
many weeks beyond the original allot-
ed time. THE Shepherd King" is one
Of these rare plays that appeal strongly
to the church-going element by its high
moral influence and Biblical reference,
and by its intensely dramatic story, its
fine climaxes, its ornate and gorgeous
scenes, pageants and tableaux. The en-
gagement at the Chestnut Street Op-
era House is for a few weeks only and
undoubtedly everybody will want to
see Wright Lorimer IN his marvellous
production of the romantic Biblical
drama, The Shepherd King" Seats
will be on sale for the first week on
Tuesday morning, November %.

How to Get Health
The Secret of Restoring Health Lies
In Replacing the Same Substances
to the Body That Have Become
Impoverished or Wasted

By disease, overwork, worry, expo
sure or abuse. When you are run
down, getting thin, weak, and tire on
the slightest exertion, the life and
strength of your blood are wearing
out. When you grow irritable, melan-
choly and nervous your nerve force is
decaying and vitality is becoming low.
Disease acts on those whose blood Is
watery, impoverished or impure, and
never affects persons who have plenty
of rich and pure blood. DR.. Chase's
Blood and Nerve Food supplies what
is lacking in the blood and nerve
force. 1t contains everything that
makes new and rich blood and perfect
nerves, in fact, it is blood itself-the
very essence of nerve force, making
it the %grandest of all tonics for the
sick, convalescent and overworked. 1t
restores vim, vigor and vitality to
aged and worn out people, and i'm
parts a glow of health to pale and
sallow people. Price SO cents.

Health Restorer and Strength
Creator Known to Medicine.

Because Vinol contains in a concen-
trated form ALL of the medicinal cur-
alive elements found in cod liver oil,

far more good.
Because we have never sold anything
In our store equal to Vinol to restore
health and create strength for old peo-
pie, weak, sickly women and children,
nursing mothers, and after a severe
sickness.
Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis, and all throat and
lung troubles.
A prominent physician writes:
"Vinol is the most ~palatable and
valuable preparation of cod liver oil
ever compounded. Inow use il entirely
In all cases where 1 formerly depended
upon old-fashioned cod liver oil and
emulsions."
Try Vinol on our guarantee to return

We have each year three or four

great and very obscure combats to
fight. But by the side OF this there
are the multitude Of simple and evil
