vaudeville, that is among those who
have come from the legitimate stage,
will be the headline feature at Keith's
Theatre next week. He will appeaE
in one act drama that will be seen
here for the first time. Unusual i'll
terest is being manifested IN it by Mr..
billiards admirers from the fact that
he will appear i'll a part entirely
different from any he has assumed
For years he has been known on the
stage as Handsome Bob billiard, :"
and has always had characters that
have been of particularly fascinat-
ing nature to matinee girls. In his
present piece which is entitled "Con-
vict 973," he plays the title role. The
play was written by Mr.. Hilliard him
self and has been proclaimed one of
the most remarkable pieces of stage
work ever offered in vaudeville, for
although the leading man is a GRIM
inal, caught in the act of burglary, it
is worked up i'll such manner that
the audience sympathizes with him
and the situations are decidedly in
tense and exciting.

PLENTY OF EXER-
CISE NECESSARY

Plenty of regular exercise must be
taken i'll order to keep the body in a
healthy condition. Any excessive or
unusual exertion, however, is sure to
cause stiffness and soreness of the
muscles and joints.
To counterfeit this effect there is
nothing better than Sloan's Liniment.
Lay 1t on lightly where the muscles
have been strained; it requires no
rubbing for it penetrates right to the
bone, relieves any congestion and in
fiammation and makes the muscles
elastic and plant.
Sloan's Liniment is a great boon to
athletes, for it not only relieves pain
and stiffness, but it is an excellent
remedy for sprains, cuts bruises and
cramps.

writes:-'I am an engineer on the
