VALENTINE THEATRE
Has New Dress and New Policy,

Notwithstanding the fact that the
Valentine Theatre, Toledo, Ohio, has
been recognized as among the few
foremost playhouses of the country
for its imposing architectural beauty
and its impressive interior, the man.
agement this summer had it redeco-
rated and refurnished to an extent
that will make its richness and its
complete conyeniences for its patrons
the objects of visits and attention,
not only from Toledo and Northwest
ern Ohio, but also from all sections.
When the theatre opens its season
on September 29rd, inaugurating its
new policy of offering, every day of
the week including Sunday, perform
ances of the most refined and enter
tanning vaudeville, the tasteful splen-
dor of the playhouse is certain to af-
ford such pleasure that the theatre
will be at once regarded by the people
as one of the attractions of this part
of the country. Mr.. Geo. II. Ketcham,
the owner of the Valentine. expended
small fortune in getting this result
and took this course to carry out a
plan to make this playhouse one
which the masses, both of Toledo and
of Northwestern Ohio, will accept as
a monument to their appreciation of
the best entertainment. The immense
seating capacity of this theatre joins
perfectly with the management's
plans to make it the place where all
the people of this section will seek
their diversion and theatre recreation.
In other words, the large number of
seats permits Of scale of prices for
the une Xcelled vaudeville entertain
ments that have been booked, that is
lower than IN any other large city, 10,
25, 35 and so cents at night and Is and
25 cents at matinee performances
Vaudeville, because of it's variety can
not fail at every performance to suit
every taste represented in the audi
ence.
With every facility and attractions
thus arranged to appeal to the entire
public, not only of Toledo but all parts
having access to that city, the coming
season will likely bring unprecedented
crowds to visit the Valentine theatre

Don't save your money and starve

Vigorous thought must come from q
fresh BRAIN
Tens of thousands of people fail be-
cause they love their ease too much.

Stevenson used to say, was "the per.

A man may build palace, but he
can never make of 1t home. The
spirituality and love of woman alone
can accomplish this.
If we are contented to unfold the life
within according to the pattern given
us we shall reach the highest end of
which we are capable.
BY proper training the depressing
emotions can be practically eliminated
from life and the good emotions rem.

enter the city, has long stood ready
to build and furnish in suitable man

to the city and an accommodation tc

sought by the merchants, but the
city council has refused to grant nee
essary right OF way for tracks suffi'
