company, composed of New York AMI

separate mechanisms.
Mr.. Baum has devised a fairy ballet,
in which the dancers will be out of

will be reflected into the line of vision
of the people in the house by means of
an intricate arrangement of mirrors.
The light reflections will be so arrang-
ed that the dancers will change colors
like chameleons. will seem real enough

thin air, to reappear again in a new
evolution. He has applied for a patent

SAVED AT

HOSPITAL
(san Francisco Bulletin


The physicians in Honolulu could
do nothing for U. S. Deputy Marshal
Winters and he gave them up in de-
spair and came to San Francisco to
see if there was any physician here
who could cure an extreme case of
chronic Bright's Disease. He had had
two uraemic commissions, and, after
fighting the disease for two years,
was at the end of the way. The first
physician he consulted in this city told
him that chronic Nephritis is now
durable disease and that he would
probably recover. He sent the pa
tient to the st. Winnifred hospital,
put him on the new treatment for
Bright's Disease, and proceeded to aid
it in many ways that the skilled prac-
titioner understands. In four months
