LAST PERFORMANCE.

The last performance at Forest
Park theater fer time will be civ
en- tonight. The New York Theater
company, one Ct the best summer at
fractions on the road. is now short of
the people necessary to put on their
plays. Some # the people who came
here with them were compelled to
leave to join companies they had
made engagements with for the Win
ter season. Other players were 'ele-
sraphed to, and will arrive here in
time to resume the park shows next
week. and after tonieht's performance
the theater will be dark until thoee
new players arrive. 1t has been diff
cult to get players to come south. Ow-
ing to the rigid guarantees, and Pine
Bluff has one of the only three sum-
mer theaters now in cneration in he
south. Mr.. Peterman, the manager
certainly deserves great credit for the
earnest efforts he has made to provide
amusement for the Pine Bluff people
in the face of obstacles so serious.
The play last night consisted of
one-act curtain raiser entitled Lock
ed in With a Lady" followed by tho
two-act farce. Family Jars" Both
are exceedingly laughable, and the au-
dience does nothing but laugh from
the time the curtain raises till it goes

THE LIFE PLANT.

There is plant in Jamaica called
the life plant because it is almost
impossible to kill it or any portion
OF it. When leaf is cut off and
hung up by a string it sends out
white, thread-like roots, gathers
moisture from the air and begins to
grow new leaves. Even when pressed
and packed away in a botanist's
herharium it has been known to out
crow the leaves Of the book in which
il was placed. The only way to kill
it is by the heat of a hot iron or of
boiling water.

TOO CLEVER TO WORRY

I We invite our ills. and are loyal
hosts when they arrive
Good will is better than ropsin
tablets to aid digestion''
WAVES of fear thought cause Ell.
iemics Of disease.
Anger in the soul corresponds to
the whirlwind in nature. and does
its devastation in the same way"
THE kernel of nervousness is sci
fishness."
'Obstacles are opportunities -
There is no fate against us but
the fate of our weak choice"
These epigrams contain the es-
sence of the teaching of one of
the bright women Of America-Mrs.
Vance CLANCY.
Another fad?
Let us see. This woman being
asked at the close of one of her lee
lures. ''Do you ever worry?' replied
"No, | am too clever" Which was not
only a clever answer, but practical
point of view.
Mrs. CLANCY knows that worry,
overexertion, fear, etc, influence not
only the mind, but also the body. No
fact is better established by expert
ment than that agitation, tention, an
ser, etc. actually changes the
structure of the body, affects its
weight, temperature, etc, and its ca
pacity to resist. In multitude of
cases disease is mentally produced
The people ought to know these
fact, so we'll known to students of
the mind.
And especially should they know
how to avoid worry and fear and
anger in their effects.
In single word, the first great
remedy is Relaxation. At some hour
during each day unstring the bow
strings. Relax both body and mind.
Give the muscles and nerves a COM
plete rest. Then relax the mind Drop
every care for few miutes. Stop try
ing to do. Content yourself to be.
Then practice deep breathing Any
body's method will do: provided il
fills every lung cell and sends the
diaphram as far down as it will go
There is nothing new in all this
And there is nothing fanciful about it
It is simply being "clevcr" enough to
take care Of yourself
If Mrs. Chaney's simple philosophy |
We're followed by more people there |
would be less disease and misery and |
crime and more happiness in the |
world

DEVIL TORTURES
BEAUTIFUL GIRL
Silver Chain Fastened to Her Heart
Is Wrenched by Dragon at HIS
Masters Command

I was among the audience OF an an
Gent Greek amphitheater. In the middle
of the stage was tower built Of brown
ish-gray stones There were twelve
young nude prisoners on the top OF the
tower, and at the foot was lying head
down a large black dragon, holding on
by long claws TO the wall.
He had silver collar to which one
end OF a large silver chain was attach
ed, and the other end, in the form of
three silver claws. was clutching the
heart of a beautiful, olive-compiexioned
young girl This sufferer bent over the
wall every time the dragon crept down.
so as to avoid the great pain caused by
the tightening of the chain
AT the left side OF the dragon an in
visible devil stood. pointing a spear. The
dragons loss of one eye and the scars
on the head showed that the devil had
long abused him for letting himself be
drawn up. instead OF creeping down far
enough TO drag the prisoner over the
wall into the devils hands
