reer she has been true to the highest
ideals of her art. Never has she stopped
to the sensational or salacious to catch
the public attention. 1t is not usuaj
to find tremendous tragic power with
such grace, such refinement and such
delicacy
1t is genius polished with infinite
care. Beyond the mere physical form
one catches glimpse of the wonderful
soul that has sublimated all she has
touched.
A Tribute
Adam Mickiewicz, a fellow coun try
man of hers and great poet, has
touched the truth of her being in a SON
net addressed to Nine. Modjeska:
The tricks of pleasing, thou hast aye dis
Thy words are plain, and simple are
thy ways;
Yet throngs, adniring, tremble meath
thy gaze,
And in thy queenly presence stand ell
chaned
Amid the social babble, unconstrained.
1 heard men speak of women words of
praise.
And with smile each turned som1
Thou cam stand To-! a sacred silence
reigned.
Thus, when the dancers with each other
And through the merry mazes whirling
Abruptly all is hushed. They wonder
| why
| And no one can the subtle reason show.
The poet speaks: There glides an angel
The guests all dimly feel but few do

1t will be noticed that there is no
alcohol in the "FAvoRITE PREsCRIP-

using alcohol in the preparation Of his
famous household remedies. For it, he
substitutes chemically pure glycerine,

strength, without any deleterious effect
whatever.

From the view point of the average
man homework is very easy. The wife
is right at home. She is her own mis-
tress. She can sit down and rest any
time. She can even go to bed for nap
if she feels like it. She can order her
household affairs just to suit her own
convenience. If she doesn't feel equal
to doing work to-day, she can do it
tomorrow. That's the beautiful theory
of the average man.
Just suppose the Egyptian task-mas-
ters, when they made the required
daily tale of bricks tax the uttermost
of human strength, had said to the
toiling slaves, "Don't hurry, take
rest every now and then only don't
forget that your tale of bricks must
be all right at night or else there'll be
trouble"
There's the fact. There are the
days duties to be got through, and the
women who can rest may not. The
woman, who, when she married, said,
"Now, I'll be my own MISTRESS" finds
herself slave to household cares and
duties.
And obi how much that woman
needs rest sometimes. She brushes and
scrubs, and rolls pastry, her temples
throbbing, her back aching, her nerves
quivering under the stress of pain.
What she would give if she could just
creep upstairs and throw herself on the
bed in darkened room and rest.
Rest would temporarily relieve the
strain, doubtless, but it would be the
same story over again tomorrow. The
real need of weak, nervous women is
strength, and that need is fully met
and satisfied by DIR. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. 1t makes weak women
strong and sick women we'll. 1t re-
moves the causes of women's weak
ness, tranquilizes and invigorates the
nerves, encourages the appetite and
induces restful sleep. uFavorite Pre-

most complicated and obstinate cases

The Novelty

The new bill at the Novelty theatei
last night was 1.-The Texas Ranger
and despite the fact that one member
of the cast was unable to appear, Man
ager j. Rush Bronson proved equal tc
the occasion and put on an understudy
who met with the approval of the aud
fence. The substitute was Stanley
Arthur He took the part of a lieu
tenant in the United States army and
gave the part military bearing ever
though he did become entagled in his
lines. The audience gave him much
encouragement after Mr.. Bronson an
nounced that he was forced to ask Mr.
Arthur to take the part upon thirty
minutes notice.
The piece is by far the best the
Novelty company has put OH under the
new management. 1t has all the tinge
of life in Texas twenty years ago. II
is in four acts and the scenery and cos
tunes are excellent and the piece is
well staged. George O'Farrell, who has
taken the leading parts at this house
appears as the captain of the Texas
Rangers and throws into the cowboy
part much spirit. The piece will be
given the remainder If the week with
the usual matnees on Saturday and
Sunday.

Reisenauer Seat Sale

Alfred Reisenauer the eminent Ger

can people as an examplar of the best
that the literature of pianoforte con-
tains. He won an unusual triumph
when in this country before, and he de-
served it, and he shall be thrice well
come when he returns to the Pacific
coast. Those who had the good luck to
hear Reisenauer when in America be-
fore will look forward to his recital in
this city with keen interest. He is a
player of immense technical power
facility and fleetness, and has proven
himself to be an able and highly in
teresting artist and man of insigh,
and authority. He comes to Los An

Orpheunn

1.-The glory of a man is his strength"
and the glory of the Orpheum this
week is a troupe of eight husky young
giants, tumbling and whirling about
the stage in a literal ecstacy of ath-
letic revelry doing all sorts of heavy
esting on account of the spice of
danger. The bunch is known as the
Eight Allisons, and they range from
a six foot Hercules to young lad
who stands with both feet on one
hand of one of the medium size mem
bers of the company, who holds him
at arms length as il he were a toy
balloon. 1t is certainly a fine collec-
ton of manhood at its physical best.
Les Brunin brings an European now
city in the line of juggling. The gen

cue, regulation balls and table which

being arranged so that when the balls
strike them they defect at angles vary
ing according TO the shot, but instead
of coming back on the table they fly
into the air and are caught in all man.

neat act and contains what is de-
manded of audevile-variety.

vent to his pent up grievances in the
prayerful appeal, "Oh, Father Adam
why did you not die with all your
ribs?' The applause which followed
seemed to indicate that there were
others present who wanted to know
the same thing. The four Vernons
have a Xylophone act which Is notable

play brought forth a hearty laugh

brette, in the character of Katrina

West the clever character comedians;
Carl Yoho, with his, pleasing baritone
solos, and Monte Carter as the Hebrew
did excellent work One of the best
features of the bill was the handsomely
costumed chorus made up of ten pretty
girls; a clever vaudeville act and new
motion pictures completed a most in

"ToY SHOP" is SPARKLING
Rehearsals on for Benefit of ths
ChiIdren's Hospital


1.-The Toy Shop" children's operetta
in two acts, with book and lyrics by
Mrs. Alice C. d. Riley of Chicago, and
music by Mrs. Jessie L. Gaynor and
Frederick Fleming Beale of st. Jo-
seph, Mo-, and managed by j. L. Allen
of Los Angeles, is sparkling little
satire upon the foibles of society, full
of charming music, sprightly songs and
original and fetching dances.
1t all happens in the "once upon a
time manner so dear to the heart
of child and from the time when the
hours by their enchantment bring the
people of the "Toy Shop" to the mo-
ment at cock-crow, when they return
reluctantly to their wonted places upon
the shelves, all goes as it should in
that world of fancy which children peo-
pie with the creatures of their imagina-
ton.

the benefit which takes place at the

Miss Eugene That's Jawton was
naturally supposed to fall far below the
precedent she established last week in
the exquisite work she did as Mary
Tudor Great is the surprise that her
work this week is even better. If there
Is any actress who can weep with more
realism than Miss Lawton she has not
appeared in Los Angeles for so long she
has been forgotten. The role is not al
together pleasant. The unpleasant final
act makes her commit suicide and her
Jealousy is an unfavorable feature of
the character although it displayed the
actress to excellent advantage
Fay Banter, the child actress, made
a decided hit i'm the first act. Miss
Margaret Langham is cast i'm the dis
agreeable role of the deceived wife but
she has one scene where she can bring
into play her emotional powers and en-
thusiastic applause on her exit showed
how well she had done her work.
Robert Dempster has one of the best
characters he has had in the Beasco
company lie displays a dramatic
sense that is almost perfect and he Is
artistic to his finger tips. But If Mr..
Dempster has ever gone into his soul
and discovered his own personality he
fails to project II across the footllghts.
Youth and inexperience perhaps are re-
sponsible for his failure to touch the
deeper notes truly.
Richard Vivian on the other hand has
the ability to impart his Individuality
to his character in a fascinating man
ner. His work is also done in fin
ished manner. His role last evening
was too weak to be popular.
Joseph Galbraith has a straight part
in which he is always good Mary Gra-
ham deserves great credit for the de-
lightful character study. Miss Far
rlngton was satisfactory as Miss Gull
ljngham.

Belasco Theater

AT the close of the third act of Clyde
Fitehs Girl With the Green Eyes"
which opened at the Belasco last even
ing, the members of the audience felt
that no matter what the accident. no
personal occasion could be importunate
enough to tear them away from the
theater before they discovered how the
four act drama ended. After the fourth
act they wished they had not remained.
That Is the manner IN which the
latest play of the great American play
wright pleases and disappoints. At one
moment II is so marvellous i'm it's work
manship that the audience is entraneed
and the next the failure to hold the in
terest 1t has sustained is appalling.
The dialogue is scintilatlng. The sec
ond act is almost a speciality for a
vaudeville team. The comments ar
