REPERTOIRE SHOW
ALL NEXI WEEK

Theatrical prophets who seem TO
be familiar with the names of sue
cessful and worthy attractions are
loud in their praises Of Kathryn
Pnrnell and her Broadway company
that comes to the Grand opera house
for a fire days engagement, start
ing Monday, Jan. Is. Much of this
praise is said to be due to the reports
that usually travel ahead of theat-
rical companies, and in this instance
the attraction seems to be favored.
Miss Purnell needs no introduction
to many who profess to keep posted
on the theatrical stock market, and
the line Of plays she is to present
here has made this particular stock
rise several points, and when it is
known that ''The Black Hand" will
be the opening bill, seats. win likely
sell at a premium.

Where be could gise 4 twist

Where he could give a twist
To Wills arm when he interfered
To stop a thrilling sprint;
The doctor half the winter feared
TO take it from the splint.
Poor Grace, ON a pneumatic cot,
Reflects on basket ball.
She played; with glee ecstatic
caught
The sphere and had a fall,
Resulting in an injury
That shattered all her nerves,
Her play, they say, was gingery
Aud full Of battling swervcs.
And Phil-you'd hardly know the
boyi
He's lost an ear and eve.
Some hazers tried to shoy the boy
The way to fight and die.
My lovely sister Amelie
At present is quite bald
Like Others of our family
In frats she was installed.
Nv mothers always Worrying
When one Of US is hurt;
Ny fathers always hurrying
For doctors-in squirt.
NY fathers full Of mulishncss;
He often frowns and saws:
I'VE heard Of no such foolishness
In my old college days.

Some OF their cares are shorn,
Their burdens lay BY for day
But there's a Monday morn.
On Saturday night the world looks
bright
Without single thorn,
IT'S also true it may look blue
When comes the Monday morn.
And some get tight on Saturday

On juice of malt and corn.
And paint the town all up and down
Forgetting Monday morn.

To make a man forlorn,
But then Ills wise to not despise
That there's Monday morn.
