Deafness Cannot be Cur.d

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness and that is by constitutional
remedies, Deafness is caused by an
intiamed condition of the mucuos lin
ing of the Estrachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when ii is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the infiamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition. hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucuos sur
faces.

"a Message From Mars" will close
it's engagement at the Salt Lake the
atre with the matinee today and per-
Torrance tonight. If you haven't seen
this wholesome comedy. you should,
because it is altogether worth while
And if you allow yourself to eat the
moral nut, hidden beneath the quaint
and curious humor of the play, your
appetite for doing good will be en-
larged. The charity which comes to
the selfish Horace Pooker" is insinu-
ated by gentle yet forceful arts
across the foot lights. David Proctor,
the actor, insensibly becomes DAVID
Proctor, the preacher. But the mes
ge"-charity-is neither a question
of creed nor religion. Before faiths
were chrystalized, Charity was in the
stars waiting to send its message TO
the first generous heart, and, when
II came. a new mantle covered the
earth. hiding much that is evil, much
that is sinful. This little comedy, "A
Message From Mars" deserves the
praises which press and pulpit have
bestowed. It attacks selfishness with
sharp wit, keen humor and fine edged
satire and makes of charity something
beyond mere theatric display-some-
thing far beyond scenic devices.
The play may not be ones ideal In
dialogue and Observation-Disclosures may
not he fine or finished actors-David
Proctor may not rise to all the posi-
bilities of the story-why be over crit

It is no small thing for soubrette
to spring from the pedestal OF comic
opera to the higher pedestal of dra'
matte accomplishment, and yet in FAR
away Australia, Nellie Stewart did ac-
complish this rare, astonishing 1eat.
Indeed in the not long ago, Melbourne
hung breathless on the airy vocalism
of Nellie Stewart. All at once she
heard the call of higher art-dramati
art-and followed it to stardom. Ihose
of us who saw this capricious produc
of the antipodes in Sweet Nell
Old Drury" are wondering now we
should classify the actress and the
play. The title role of the play was
not always dramatic-it was really
high comedy-but Miss Stewart, a.
suited her inclination, either touched
our eyes with moist emotions, or
whirled us to soubrettish heights. And
the beauty of it was that her eyes and
face-her entire personality-were
the playground of such delightful
moods that / despaired in giving tc
any one the prize of greatest charm
The audience was most enthusiastic.
If each man and woman, and every
gallery god, could have changed their
ecstacy into bouquets, Nellie Stewart
would have walked from Drury Lane
to Whitehall over a pathway of fow-
ers.
It was personality, rather than sub
tie art, working the audience into
frenzy-a frenzy which neither ques-
toned nor answered the meaning OF
it all. The play itself is merely so
many shreds of history strung on
