made me q well woman, and feel so CRATE
full that am glad TO write and tell you OF
my marvellous recovery. 1t brought me
health, new life and vitality"
What Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable

Its benefits begin when its use begins.
II gives strength and vigor from the
start, and surely makes sick women
well and robust.
Remember Lydia r. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound holds the record for
the greatest number of actual cures of
woman's ills. This fact is attested to
by the thousands of letters from crate
full women which are on file in the
Pinkham laboratory.
Women should remember that cure
for all female diseases actually exists.
and that cure is Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
IL you have symptoms you don't
understand write to Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, Mass, for special advice. The
present Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter

At TIE PLAY HOUSES.


"BIue Jeans" nj the BurwoOd.
Blue Jeans il acceptable on more than
one score. for in this play the public sees
a number of actors in representations
wholly different from anything they have
done this season, Miss Lang and MIR. owen
in particular varying from the roles in
which they have become familiar. The
study Miss Lang gives of the little maid
from the poor house is filled with intuitive
touches that add to the critical estimate
OF her artistic ability. 1t is not until after
the second act that the melodramatic cur
rent flows unfettered. and 1t is in the fore
part Of the play that the nature Of June
is developed. The audience witnessed a
June cut with precision and deflniteness,
a fresh appealing flower of poverty. fra
grant with an untutored joy of living and
symbolic of a personality that. with good
grammar or bad. with manners of
princess or a hoyden, is recognized at once
for its rare qualities. Little could be noted
of the previous creations of Miss Lang. 1t
was almost as though a new actress had
come into the theater. i
Mr. owens Ben Boon is another careful
exposition of character that is clever and
gains by the difference from previous work
by the actor. Boon is a man who scarcely
hesitates at the thought of violent murder.
and the underlying brutality of his nature
is interpreted by the actor in many express
sons Of voice and gesture until one thor
oughly understands the ignorant and lout-
ish individual. bad by the force of passion,
yet containing the gratitude of the savage.
And Mr.. owen puts surprising qualities
of youth and vigor in the part.
Miss Hill is the Sue Eudaly. the arch
fiend and source of all the trouble in the
play. The role suits Miss Hil whose
IN. rrl..
atmosphere is clogged with wickedness the
moment she steps on the stage. and she
dresses appropriately in the hues of deviltry
and abandonment
Mr.. Davis is excellent as Colonel Henry
Clay Risner shifty politician, in extract
1t is only fair to Mr.. Morrison to say he
does not play Perry Bascom to anything
near its limit Mr. Long gives n unique
and piquant conception of Jacob Tutweiler
and is thoroughly finished and delightful.
Mr.. Simpson, Mr.. Schofcld, Mr.. Todd, Miss
Ward and Miss Davis do funny bits of
buffoonery, the marvellous attire of the
first named when he leads the village band
being feature. Miss Hudson is a lady
of much antiquity. There are mobs, coun-
try dances, speeches, a saw mill scene, a
real baby bull and two bull dogs in the
cast. A real dog fight in the third act was
one of a few unexpected happenings at the
opening matinee and gave the leading
woman bad I'VE minutes.

SOUTH OMAHA. Feb H-To the Editor
of the Bee: I would like to know If the
amount of taxes that are now being paid
I'm south Omaha are higher I'm proportion
to the FIRE and police protection than they
are i'm Omaha.
This question is being discussed every
day and a little more so since the city hall
question has been sprung on us so suddenly.
The citizens of South Omaha, at least the
taxpaying class OF them, have almost come
to the conclusion that our taxes are ous
of all proportion to our protection.
And il looks as though We have at last
come TO that place where annexation is
our only salvation. l am opposed to an
nexation and have always opposed H.
but | am going to swallow 1t this time.
The state OF affairs here cannot get much
worse and our last city council demon
strated that fact by their four-ninute ses-
sion For the good OF the taxpayers and
best citizens of South Omaha, suggest to
us a way out Of this dilemma.

George Primroses big minstrel company

with the fine entertainment offered. Mr..
Primrose has gone back to first principles
and is offering a genuine minstrel entec-

Emile Suvers. IL q feature Of the first

as the Georgia sunnower." That has
nothing to do with the fact that he is

and as full of quaint drollery as can be.

has his own conceit of fun, but he has
given over any thought of darkey dialect
and does a white face" turn BACKED
up. Mr.. Primrose is the same genial.
jovial. lightfooted gentleman the public
has known for a generation or more as
the very head of his line of work. His
fun is keen, his voice is clear and his
dancing as nimble and clever as ever.
He is about the last of the old lights Of
the negro minstrel world, but is still shin
ing brightly. and his many admireres hope
to see him often yet. His comptny is well
equipped with vocalists, and many new
and old songs are charmingN sung dur

laughable burlesque, a wonderful exhibit

pupils, a monologue by Subers and a spec

closes the engagement.
