Impossible to Get Employment, as Face

Cured by CutieuE1.
"Since the year 1894 I have been trou.
bled with q very bad case of eczema which
/ have spent hundreds Of dollars trying to
cure, and / went to the hospital, but they
failed to cure me, and it was getting worse
al the time. Five weeks ago my wife
bought a box Of Cuticura Ointment and
one cake of Cuticura Soap. and I am
pleased to say that I am now completely
cured and well. It was impossible for me
to get employment, as my face, head and
body were covered with it. The eczema
first appeared on the top of my head,
and it had worked all the way around
down the back of my neck and around to
my throat, down my body and around the
hips. 1t itched so / would be obliged to
scratch it. and the flesh was raw. l am
now all well, and I will be pleased to rec

"A Message from Mars" one of the most talked about comedies of recent years, will be the attraction at the New Haven theater tonight, tomorrow night and Saturday night and at the matinee Saturday.
 Not until the present time has this play ever visited this section of the country Its managers have found so great demand for it in the eastern states that never before has it been possible to send it into this section of the country. When "A Message from Mars" was first brought to the United States after a run of three consecutive years in London it attracted SO great attention in New York that it remain ed there uninterrupted for a period of two years. This in itself should be suf- fieient recommendation for any play, All of the other large eastern cities were visited, and everywhere it was presented theater-goers crowded the playhouses to their full seating capaci- ty This in brief has been the history Of "A Message from Mars"
 A Message from Mars" is credited with being one of the most amusing, entertaining and interesting comedies that has been placed before the public for the past quarter century. It has reputation also of heinz intensely in- structive, as it deals with a great truth. It is said to be cast upon original and novel lines, making it, in fact, some- thing out of the ordinary. It is believ- ed to be as unlike, In its text and gen. eral architectural construction, as any play that has ever been seen. In this respect 1t Is said to be a wonder. It is being presented by company of about twenty-five players, many of whom were in the original London and New York productions. Regular popa1af prices,

 The characters of "The Gingerbread Man" are old friends of our-Lttle Jack Horner, Simple Simon, Margery DaW, Taffy, the Dragon. Sallie Lunn, Fudge and whole company of merry little people that everyone in the world has known since childhood. Frederick Ran kin has written the book and lyrics of the play. and A.

ENTERTAINMENTS
Hyperion Theatsr.

During the engagement of Peter Pan," which ran the entire season at the Empire theater, New York, last year, Mark Twain wrote a letter to Miss Adams in commendation of the play and her performance. Perhaps the finest sentence contained in it was the foregoing Tt Is my belief that Peter Pan is great and refining and uplifting benefaction to this sordid and money-mad age, and that the next best play on the boards is a long way be- hind it, as ong as you play Peter" In addition tC the performances already announced to be given at the Fly perion on Gtober IS, 19 and 20, there will be special matinee the last day of the engagement.
 In spite of record breaking advance sale at the Hyperion for the Maude Adams engagement, there are plenty of seats left for all performances. For this engagement no telephone orders are taken and no tickets held.

TACT OF THE sPEL1B1NDER.

General Gorge A. Sheridan Proves
 Equal to an Awkward Occasion.
 An orator who was equal to the emergency was the late George A. Sheridan, who was noted spell binder" often engaged by the Repub- lican National Committee. At big meeting he was addressing in town near New York he was introducted by a MT O'Brien, the Chairman, in most flattering terms. In order to recipro- cate MT. Sheridan paid glowing trib- ute to the sterling qualities of the Chairman and wound up the eulogy by asserting that no man could say MT. O'Brien owed him a cent.
 He owes me $S, came a keen Celtic voice from the rear of the audience.
 It was almost solar plexus blow, for the orator and the audience started to laugh and jeer. Rallying the speaker said: Don't be alarmed, good friends; will answer that man presently" This assertion was to gain time, and, if possible, have the audience forget the incident, but again that penetrat- ing voice cried out:
 He owes me $S. cold cash"
 Advancing to the edge of the plat form, General Sheridan, in confiden- tial tone, said: "Yes, know all about the $S. for my friend, Mir, O'Brien, has given me the inside facts. Ladies and gentlemen, the truth is simply this, and it reveals peculiar character: This man who has interrupted me met Mir. O'Brien recently and asked him for the loan of $10. I haven't got ten, said the generous MT. O'Brien, but here are ST. handing the money to him. Now this man is going around saying my friend, the honorable Chairman, owes him sS because he could only lend him $7 when s1O was requested" A roar of laughter filled the hall and the indig- nant man tried to answer the ator. He was howled down. The Chairman whispered in General Sheridan's ear: You have saved me-you are a gen. ius. "-Leslie's Weekly.

FIRST MORMON TEMPLE.
A Massive Stone Structure Built by
 Prophet Joseph Smith.

A Massive Stone Structure Built by
 Prophet Joseph Smith,
 The first shrine of Mormonism Is still standing at Kirtland, o. If the occupants of the little cemetery near it could tell, they would tell how many fevered zealot gave his lands, his home and his all to provide funds for the building of the temple.
 It was in 1880 that Smith appeared in Kirtland, and with his coming there was social revolution the like of which Ohio had never witnessed. Hus- bands left their wives and children, mothers deserted their homes and babes were placed in the poorhouse. The end came when Joseph Smith was compelled to flee the State of Ohio. The temple was all that was left behind.
 "A Store House of the Lord" as Smith called 1t, was begun in 1881 and by 1884 was completed. Its founda- ton was laid on seven small ridges or hills, in imitation of the Rome of old. The dimensions were about 50 by 125 feet. The stone walls are 2 feet in thickness
 The temple stands today about ss it was when built. On the first floor Is the main audience room, filled with walnut benches surrounded by a high railing. The doors to the pews have locks or catches, so that when closed whoever is speaking Is reasonably sure of holding his audience.
 At each end of the room a series of thrones, one rising above the other, marks the position during wor ship used by the dignitaries of Joseph Smiths reign. Rows of hooks in the ceiling show how the curtains which were once used were arranged to de" vide the floor into four apartments.
 The floor above is bare and desolate ooking. About 50 chairs placed here indicate that 1t Is used as a sort of ecture hall, but in the days of Smith curtains divided this apartment just l US below.
 Rollers fastened to the ceiling of | his second floor, together with a sys- em of pulleys, enabled the operator | o raise or lower the curtains of both | irst and second floors at the same ime. In the thirty story several | partitions running north and south i make number of separate chambers. |
