Lope de Vega was learned when "a
mere boy. At five he could read Latin
and Spanish ~fluently and at II he was
master of the tongue and of rhetoric,
while at Is he had written several
p~astorals and a comedy. He is stated
to have produced about 1900 com.
edies during his life, so perhaps it was
necessary to begin when very young.

Lessons to Learn.

Learn to laugh. A good laugh is bet
ter than medicine.
Learn to attend strictly to your own
business-a very important point.
Learn to tell a story.A well-told story
is as welcome as a sunbeam in a sick
room.
Learn the art of saying kind and
encouraging things, especially to the
young.
Learn to avoid all in-natured re-
marks and everything calculated to
create friction.
Learn to keep your troubles to your
self. The world is too busy to care for
your ills and SORROWS.
Learn to stop grumbling. If you
cannot see any good in the world, keep
the bad to yourself.
Learn to hide your aches and pains
under a pleasant smile. No one cares
whether you have the earache, head
ache or rheumatism.
Learn to greet your friends with {
smile. They carry too many frowns
in their own hearts to be bothered with
any of yours.

Greatest Theatrical Attraction
Ever Presented in
GOldSbOrO.
Saturday, February 9th, Is the
Date--Special Trains on the
Occasional Brief Re
view of Famous
Drama.

10 the many roaQ0rS ana Cuuent OF
the legendary stories of the "Holy
Grail" especially is understood in
Wagner's beautiful spectacle of 'Parsi-
fall" its Christian symbolism and
teachings will be readily recognized
and appreciated. One cannot fail to
| see in this beautiful work that it was
the intention of the master mind that
conceived it to construct a work SO
natural and life-1ike in action, SO
human, moral and instructive in its
entire fabric, that it would for ages en-
dure as a forceful and constant reminder
of it's grand and noble Christian les
son.
It was Wagner's last work.
1t. was his greatest.
1t will serve forever as a glorious
monument to his immortal genius.
If there was no other work of Wag-
ner's extant, "Parsital" would attest as
to his wonderful powers as a philoso-
pher, poet and Intellectual giant.
What then must have been the genius
of the man who has left to posterity
more than three hundred works in
poetry, music and prose, and covering
the entire field of philosophy, art and
science?
But it is only of his last and greatest
work we wish to speak, "Parsifal,'
that wondrous creation that has stirred
the hearts and minds Of men the world
over. Its story, from beginning to end,
is a powerful exposition OF he's secret of
redeeming love. Can any one possibly
imagine a more worthy theme upon
which to build a play? Yet the builder
has constructed so we'll, illustrated the
subject IN so graphic and interesting a
manner that it is at once the very ideal
drama from an ethical standpoint, and a
most thrilling and entertaining spec
tacle as appealing to the more material
senses. One can see in it's presentation
the God-like teachings Of it's authOr.I
One can also see in it magnificent and
impressive spectacle, the equal of
which has heretofore never been wit
messed for it's enhancing story and
regal environments. Such a produc-
ton must necessarily demand more
the ordinary in equipment, cast
and treatment, in order to do Justice to
SO worthy a theme. These require
nients, we are assured, will be com
pletely fulfilled during the engagement
in this city at the Messenger Opera
on Saturday night Of next week,
Fabruarv 9th
Owing to the unusual length of the
performance, the curtain will rise for
the first act promptly at 7:45 p. IN.
There are four acts, each one of which
requires about forty minutes for its
enactment. The intermissIons are COM
parat1vely short, and the final curtain
falls at II o'clock. It is one of the
rules of the performance, and the man
agement gives the assurance that the
rule will be strictly enforced, that every
one must be seated before the theatre is
darkened, which means, before the
music begins. Late corners will not be
shown to their seats until the concIu-
sion of the act.
Warning of the approach for time of
mencement will be given by trum-
peters in the lobby entrance.

Three ways are used by farmers
for curing and preparing their to-

cured, air cured and fue cured.
The old and cheap way is called air

In fue curing the tobacco is taken
from the fields and racked in barns

there subjected to a continuous high

tobacco, grown in the famous Pied

sweetening than tobacco grown in
any other section of the United States
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
Juicy, full tobacco taste that satisfies
tobacco hunger. That's why chewers
prefer Schnapps, because Schnapps
cheers more than any other chewing
tobacco, and that's why chewers of
Schnapps pass the good thing along
-one chewer makes other chewers,
until the fact is established that
there are more chewers and more
pounds of tobacco chewed to the
population in states where Schnapps
tobacco is sold than there are in
those states where Schnapps has not
