This phrase has grown quite
common in this vicinity recently,
attractive posters with the above
catch lines being lavishly displayed
on fences, ask boxes, bill-boards
and windows. This line is used by
that very progressive young mama
ger, Elmer Walters, in gaining pub
lic.ty and incidently dollars for the
newest attraction, "a Millionaire
Tramp" In this production Mr..
Walters has made a long stride to
the front, for in this play he sue
Iceeded in retaining all the elements
of quick action and broad comedy
so dear to the hearts of the masses,
and eliminated the impossible bonn
bastic dramatic situations that have
so far characterized this class Of an
attraction. The finale of A Mil
lionaire Tramp" is without doubt
one Of the most beautiful dramatic
endings ever given to any ylay, not
word being spoken for at least
FIVE minutes before that last cur
tain.

MILLIONAIRE S POOR

The worn out stomach Of the over
fed millionaire is often paraded in
the public prints as a horrible ex-
ample OF the evil attendant on the
possession Of great wealth. But
millionaires are not the only ones
who are afflicted with bad stomachs.
The portion is far greater among
the tailors. Dyspepsia and indiges-

they avail themselves Of a standard
medicine like Green's August

household remedy, for all stomach
troubles for over thirty years. Au-
