Dress Reform for 4den.


 The question of reforming mems dress may be looked upon from at least four different sides. There Is the humorous side, the practical side, the ethical side. and last, but not least the hygienic side
 That a dress reform for men, from q practical and hygienic point of view. Is badly needed, there is no doubt. What can be more ridiculous than cutting the front of vest and coat away. thus expos- ing chest. lungs. throat, etc., to the in- clemency of the weather, giving rise to serious illness? What sense Is there in constructing the back of a vest with a mere thin llning7 Do tailors imagine that the spine requires less protection than any other part of the body7 What prac- tical use Is there in wearing collars high enough to outshade the old-fashioned "father-murders" that prevent the free movement of head and neck, and tight enough to seriously interfere with the proper function of several organs? It is ignorance. pure and simple, and 1t is one of the physicians duties to enlight- en the public on the necessity of consid- ering their health before fashion, igno- rance and folly. Wherein male attire fails is the even distribution of protective warbmth. One part of the body should be as warm as the other

Revival of Two Orphans. v

The revival of A. M. Palmer's famous Union Square Theatre success of gener- ation ago, The Two Orphans" at Klaw & Erlanger's New Amsterdam Theatre In New York. has proved one of the most remarkable hits in recent years. Recog- nized as one of the most powerful melo- dramas ever written. played by a star cast of leading principals and a most careful selection of players of recognized ability for the minor roles, an unusual measure of success was predicted for ir before the first performance; but probably no one but those directly concerned in the production ever anticipated 1t would make the really remarkable hit 1t has scored. From the first performance the New Am sterdam Theatre has been packed by great audiences which have received the old play with all the enthusiasm accord ed an unusually popular new production. The receipts the first week-Holy Week. when attendance is generally light-ap- proxlmated $16,0eo.
 In this revival the acting of the play has been given first consideration. While the production is in every way adequat. and fulfills all requirements created by the demands of the theatre-going public of today for complete perfection in picto- rial detail. the scenery and effects can only be regarded as of secondary inter est to the work of the notable company in the impersonation of the virile characters and the development of the story. In this respect, one Is carried back to the days when famous players enthrallcd their auditors by the magnetic force of their wonderful genius without the aid of elab- crate scenery. And yet, notwithstanding the evident purpose of the producer to make the physical side of this revival a secondary consideration, one scene alone cost a greater outlay than was expended on the, entire production at he Union Square Theatre thirty years ago.-the IL luminated gardens, the second tableau of the first act.
 And such a cast! Twelve noted players on the stage in the same performance each having a powerful role of equal lm- portance In the telling of the story! There Is probably no other play that would jus tify the engagement of such an aggre- Eation of talent. and certainly none other in which so many players of equal prom thence would consent to Jointly appear. Since this revival was first announced, much has been written about the original cast at the Union Square, but 1t would be difficult indeed to imagine a better or more artistic performance than that gi, en at the New Amsterdam by Kyrle Bellew, James ONeill. Charles Warner, Frederick Perry, E. NJ Holland. Jameson Lee F.n- ney, Grace George, Margaret Ellington, Clara Morris, Annie Irish, Elita Proctor Otis and Clara Blandick. These are cer- tainly names which, individually. would carry them unusual importance. Taken as an aggregation, 1t can be truthfully said they make up a cast of principals that Is remarkable.
 It was the original intention to continue the revival of The Two Orphans but four weeks, and not to send 1t lon the road.H Its success has led to arrange ments for it's indefinite stay at the New Amsterdam, where 1t will be presented until warm weather compels its with drawal.

ONE OF DR. CUPID'S PRESCRIPTIONS.

That Love sometimes cureS diseaSe is fact that has recently been called to the attention of the public by a prominent physician and college professor. In some nervous diseases of women, such as iys- teria, this physician gives instances where women were put in pleasan. frame of mind, were made happy by falling in love, and in consequence were cured of their nervous troubles-the weak, nervous Sys. tenn toned and stimulated by little br. Cupid - became strong and vigorous, al most without their knowledge Many Q woman is nervous and irritable, feels drag. ged down and worn out, for no reason that she can think of. She may be ever so much in love, but Dr. Cupid fails to cure her. In ninety nine per cent. of these cases 1t is the womanty organism which requires attention; the weak back. dizzy spells and black circles about the eyes, are only symptoms. Go to the source of the trouble and correct the irregularities, the drains on the womanly system and the other symptoms disappear. So sure of it Is the Worlds Dispensary Medical Associa ton, proprietors of Dr. Pierce's Pavorite Prescription, that they offer a Ssoo reward for women who cannot be cured of leucor. rhea, female weakness, prolapsus, or fall. ing. of the womb. All they ask is fair and reasonable trial of their means of cure
 ,DT. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets clear the complexion and sweeten the breath they cleanse and regulate the stomach, liver anN bowels and produce permanent benefit and do not react on the system. One is a gentle laxative.

Especially During Warm Weather De the Symptomsof of Female Weakness
 Make Themselves Apparent.

Women are especially liable to pelvic catarrh, female weakness as 1t is conn monly called. Especially in tho xrss few weeks of warm weather do the dis agreeable symptoms of female weakness make themselves apparent. In crisp cold weather chronic sufferers with pelvic catarrh do not feel so persistensly the debilitating effects of the drain upon the system, but ct the approach of snna- mer with its lassitude and tired feelings, the sufferer with pelvic catarrh xesla the need of strengthening tonic. Peruna is not only the best spring tonic for such cases, but If persisted in will effect complete cure. Write for R copy of "Health and Beauty" written especially for women by Dr. Hartman. If you want to read of some cures also, write for copy of 'Facts and Facss.p That will surely convince you that our claims are valid.
 We say Peruns cures catarrh. The people say Peruna cures catarrh. Prone inent men and women all over tho United States from Maine to California, do not hesitate to come out in public print to say that Peruna is what 1t is recommended to be, an internal sys- temic catarrh remedy that cures ca- tarrh wherever itmay be located.
 If you do not derive prompt and sstis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.
