COSTS NOTHING T0 TRY.
 The mention of sulphur will recall to many of us the early days when our mothers and srandmothers gave us our daily dose of sulphur and mo- lasses every spring and fall
 It was the universal spring and fall "blood purifier,'' tonic and cure-all, and. mind you this old-fashioned rem edy was not without merit
 The idea was good but the remedy was crude and unpalatable, and a large quantity had to be taken to get any effect.
 Nowadays we get all the. beneficial effects of sulphur in a palatable. con- centrated form, so that a single grain is far more effective than a table spoonful of the crude sulphur
 In recent years research and experi- ment have proven that the best sul- phur for medicinal use is that obtained from Calcium Calcium Sulphide) and sold in drug stores under the name of Stuart's Calcium Waters. They are small chocolate colored pellets ahd con- tain the active medicinal principle Of sulphur in ahighly concentrated, ef- fective form.
 Few people are aware of the value of this form Of sulphur in restoring and maintaining bodily vigor and health sulphur acts directly on the liver ana GAEEGLgE1 anu phA lAlGb and enriches the blood by the prompt elimination of waste material.
 Our grandmothers knew this when they dosed us with sulphur and mo- lasses every spring and fall, but the crudity and impurity of ordinary flow CTS of sulphur were often worse than the disease, and cannot compare with the modern concentrated preparations of sulphur, of which Stuart's Calcium Waters Is undoubtedly the best and most widely used.
 They are the natural antidote for liver and kidney troubles and cure con- stfpation and purify the blood In a way that often surprises patient and physician alike.
 Dr. R. M. Wilkins, while experiment. ing with sulphur remedies, soon found that the sulphur from Calcium was su- perior to any other form. He says: "For liver. kidney and blood troubles. especially when resulting from consti- patton or malaria, l have been sur pfised at the results obtained from Stuart's Calcium Waters. In patients suffering from boils and pimples and even deep-seated carbuncles. nave repeatedly seen them dry up ana dis- appear in four or five days, leaving the skin clear and smooth. Although Stu arts Calcium Waters is proprietary article and sold by druggists and for that reason tabooed by many physi- clans. yet I know of nothing so safe and reliable for constipation, liver and kidney troubles and especially in all forms of skin diseases as this remedy .
 At any rate people who are tired Of pills, cathartics and so-called blood "purlfiers" will find in Stuart's Calcium Waters a far safer. more palatable and effective preparation.

THEATRICAL LETTER

New York. Nov S.-Horribly Ibsen is the drama with Paul Armstrong for its author, and N. c.

 'I never saw "a man more afraid to die" said the physician.
 The remains of the person whom death had frightened were carried out, and the cot was put in order for it's next occupant. It was empty no more than five minutes. The clang of an ambulance gong approached and stop ped. messenger came in to say that the arriving patient was to have any thing and everything possible done for him regardless of cost.
 Nat Goodwin is an adept in make up. No tramping bummer was ever fTowsier, blearier. raggeder or dirtier than the wretch who was brought in on stretcher and laid on the cot limp and insensible. The ambulance surgeon said that the poor fellow had snatched a little girl from the hoofs of a runaway horse, but they had struck him 6 mortal blow. The sur geon stuck a hypodermic needle into his arm, and an injection reused him to consciousness.

Miss BIngbam In '.The Lilac ROOm.'

Miss Bingham in "rhe LAlae HoOm'"
 Amelia Bingham who, supported by. a splendid English company will ap- near at the Mopt somery Theatre Thursday night in the clever and sprightly English comedy "The Lilac Room" is that strange anomaly an artist who is at the same time a shrewd and calculating business wo- man.
 Miss Bingham scorns managers, in the ordinary sense of the term and directs her own affairs from making the comprehensive outline, of new production down to the smallest de- tails She is the only woman of the present generation wno has controued a New York theatre and directed \ A great stock company. of which at the same time she was leading woman Miss Bingham accomplished all this with ease when she produced Clyde Fitch's best play ''fhe Climbers" at the Biiou Theatre. New York, later when she presented "A Modern Mag dalen." and '"The Frisky Mrs. John- son" at the Princess Theatre Not only did she have the best company the metropolis had seen up to that time one including William, IIackaye, Henry E. Dixey. Henry Woodruff. Robert Ed eson. Frank Worthing, Madge Carr Cooke and Clara BlOodgood-7all stars now-but her theatres were so adroit- fly handled they became the most fash ionable in the metropofIs, and Miss Bingham, by popular acclaim, was placed at the very forefront of Amer ica's actresses. Such results from a woman. were unparallele0. and no oth- CT actress has had the hardihood to emulate Miss Bingham's example.
 In "'rhe Lilac Room," the actress manager is said to have the strongest and most charming pray she ever pre- scented. The scenes nre laid in aristo- cratic rural old England and its at mosphere is as quaint. frequent and charming as flower garden in Surrey. Tho play is a comedy, with two ab- sorbing love stories, and A dramatic updercurrent that comes to the front strongly in the climaxes.
 In order that the spirit and charm of the play may b0 naturally revealed Miss Bingham has surrounded herself with an all-Engiish company, inelud- ing such capable players as Frederic

Mir. Skinner 10 sarhe Duel.,,


 The greatest sensation that the Paris stage has witnessed during the presen. season, 'I4e Duel" C'The DueI's) by M. Isavedan, Is to be produced at the Mont gomery Theatre Tuesday night with Otis skinner In the remarkable role of the Abbs Daniels
 In this part the famous French actor. M le Bargy. has scored the supreme hit of his career. Manager Charles Frohman secured the American rights of this great comedio- Francaise sue . cess and lost no time in producing it in New York with Otis skinner in the chief role. It was with Mir skinner in mind specially to create this part of the young priest, who is the central figure of the drama, that Mir Frohman decided to undertake the American production and negotiations with the author were speedily consummated Mir. Skinner himself was decidedly eager to appear in 'srhe Duel" which has afforded him the greatest oppor- tunity he has evershHd in contemporary drama of modern psychological inter- est.
 The story of the play concerns the passion of Docteur Mercy for the Duch- esse de Chailles.The spiritual confes- sor of the Duchesse is the Abbe Daniel, who Is the brother of Docteur Mercy, and has been man of the world be. fore his conversion to the priesthood. The Abbe becomes the arbiter between his brother and the Dlchesse. heth of them torn between their passion for one another and the teachings of re- ligion. In the intensely dramatic situ- atioHs which are evolved, the Abbe finds himself not without human emo- tlons and impulses that make him doubt his own fitness to be priest and spiritual guide to those others, It Is the duel between religious duty and individual spirit The priest would renounce his vows; the Duchesse would seek safety In a convent. In the in evi.able crisis all three troubled souls arc saved by the large minded advice of a liberal and kindhearted eccle- siastie, Monseigneur Bolene.
 The character of Abbe Daniel is said to he one of the most unique and pecu- liarty interesting studies of human com plexity that has ever been present. ed upon the stage. He Is the modern type of tolerant thinker, fin absolute touch with contemporary influences. The play is still the talk of Paris and New York and bids fair to duplicate its sensational success In this city.
