GET PACKED HOUSE
"THE AMERICAN GIRL" DELIGHTS
ORPHEUM LAST NIGHT.

Another crowded house at the Or
pheum last night attested the con-
tinued popularity of the Ellefords
Moreover the crowd Notwithstanding
the discomfort Of unusually sitting
heat, seemed to forget themselves en-
tirely and to enter into the spirit of the
strong play presented, in a way that
must have been exceedingly gratifying
to the members of the company.
"The American Girl" was the title of
the Anglo American comedy drama
which was presented last night and
will be repeated this evening. It has
a strong, clear plot, from which most
of the overdrawn sensationlism of the
ordinary melodrama has been eliminat-
ed. 1t carries the spectators from a
typical old Virginia home scene in the
first act to England where the remain
ing three acts are portrayed A younger
son of high rank in England's peerage
but with poor prospects, and an ar
tistic temperament falls in love and
marries secretly, poor but blue blood
ed Virginia girl, who also has the mis-
fortune to be coveted by william who
gets the whip hand and turns her and
her mother from their ancestral home.
In the meantime her noble husband has
been called away to England and by a
curious combination of circumstances,
is lost to knowledge of his wife for
number of years. The reuniting of
fond hearts, and the coming into pos
session of vast estates in England and
the downfall of several arch plotters
against them, all fills out a story of
intense dramatic interest

Some Of the specialties were very good
particularly the work of the Osborn
children. Two more clever youngsters
in both their dramatic work and i'm
specialties, would be hard to find. They
were decidedly the hit Of the evening,
and they fully deserved all the honors
that came to them Their work through
out compared most favorably with that
of their elders, without making any al
lowanoe for difference in age and ex-
perience.
The audience last night was a most
representative one, and highly credit
able to Honolulu. Governor Carter
and Secretary Atkinson were members
of stag party in one of the boxes,
and many society people of the city
were to be seen in the audience.

More than 100000 persons in the
United States were offered up in 1905 as

death rate may seem, it vas less than

both Cured by Cuttcura.
Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent ply
sician for an obstinate case OF &C.
zema, I resorted to the Cuticura Rem
edies, and was SO well pleased with
the almost instantaneous relief afford
ed that we discarded the physicians
prescription and relied entirely on the
Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and
Cuticura Pills. When we commenced
with the Cuticura Remedies her feet
sores. In about six weeks we had her
completely well, and there has been no
recurrence of the trouble.
In July of this year a little boy
in u family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty
-four hours his hands and arms were
a mass of %torturing sores. We used
only the Cuticura Remedies, washing
his hands and arms with the Cut.cura
Soap, and amounting them with the
Cuticura Ointment, and then gave him
the Cuticura Resolvent. In about three
weeks his hands and arms healed up.
So we have lots Of cause for feeling
grateful for the Cuticura Remedies. We
find that the Cuticura Remedies are z

Mr.. w. Fl. Rogers, Canadian Govern
ment Agent, indianapolis, I1N.
My Dear Sir-When ysu were at u
place in July I promised to write you
what my North quarter made per acre
You will remember it was all sown to
wheat. Well, 1 finished threshing yes
terday, and received from 1t an aver
8 of 43A bushels per acre-testing
BAY pounds per stroked bushel. The
wheat is the best sample I have ever
raised-so uniform and even in size.
You may know 1t was a good sample
when l tell you that I have already
sold 1000 bushels of it for seed to my
neighbors. This year has been my best
effort in farming during my life. My
wheat totalled $3.50 bushels md my
oats nearly 5000.
II you remember / pointed out to
you a half-section lying just west of
u house and joining my upper quar-
ter on the south, which l said I should
have in order to make one of the best
farms in Western Canada. / am very
glad to be able to tell you that l now
own that half-section. My ambition
now is to be able to market 10000
bushels Of wheat next year If some
of those good honest Hoosiers could
have been with me during the last two
weeks and could have seen the golden
grain rushing down the spout into my
wagon and then could have seen it in
great piles in my granaries, l feel sure
they would have been forced to ac-
knowledge there Is no better farming
country in the world than this. / may
just say that I have done all my farm
Ing with eight head OF horses and one
hired man except during harvest and
threshing, This ear I proved to my
neighbor chat the Hoosiers when once
woke up" can raise grain equal to the
best Minnesota farmers. His best yield
was 4211a bushels per acre., SO you see
"Old Indiana" is holding the ribbon
this year.
Yours very truly,

had relieved him of his portable property.

No" answered the footpad.

man of my general appearance, was it,"
Yes. What are you drivin' at?"
well, this is the third time I've been
held up, and 1 begin to suspect that I
carry more loose change about me than is
really necessary. What I want to know
is this: What is the smallest amount a
man can carry in his pockets and yet be
sure OF not being beat up for having too
little when some fellow like you goes
through him."
