before q local audience, but should her
again book his star thruour
this circuit it is q safe assertion that
there would not be many vacant seats
in the Odeon. The large audience OF
last night was most hearty In its re-
ception of the entire company, and
Miss Robson and her leading support
were compelled to respond to numer-
u curtain calls.
In private life Miss Robson is the
wife of DR.. A.. II. Brown, chief surgeon
of the police and fire department or
New York city. When she first ap-
peared in dramatic work, and was en-
gagged for stock in New York. Mary
Robinson was to have been introduced
to the public. Thru an error in the aa-
vertising matter the "r" was dropped
from Mary, and the Gin" from Robin
son. making May Robson. The super
stition that abounds In the profession
commanded attention In this instance.
and Joe Jefferson and others advised
the young woman not to change the
name. So during all these years May
Robson has won name and fame, yet
she claims no relationship to Andrew.
Eleanor, or others of the Robsons who
are prominent in her profession, as one
might naturally surmise. Miss Robson
has a married son living at Salt Lake
City, and her audience may we'll nag
inc a true mothers ring In her stage
expression of a mothers love for her
Wayward nephew.

New Discovery Cures Eczema and
Eradicates Minor Skin Troubles
Over Night.
A few months ago the dispensers of
poslam, the new discovery fer the cure
of eczema, decided to allow the drug
gists of the country to handle it. Pre-
vious to that time it could only be OBJ
tanned direct from the laboratories.
Since this change in the method of
distribution, poslam has met with the
most phenomenal success of anything
introduced to the drug trade in the
last 80 years. All leading druggists,
including the Mcbride & Will Drug
company. are now carrying the special
5O-cent size recently adopted, also the
50 jar.
This great success is not surprising
when it is remembered that, in eczema
cases, poslam stops the itching with
first application, proceeds tc heal i'm
mediately, and cures chronic cases in
a few weeks. In minor skin troubles,
such as pimples, blackheads, acne,
herpes, blotches, rash, etc, results
show after an over night application.
Experimental samples Of poslam are
sent to anyone by mail free of charge,
by the Emergency Laboratories, 80

ANU ENTS.
Nav Robson, in 1.-THE Rejuvenation OF
Aunt Mary" Rare Comedy Treat.

Nav Robson, in "The Rejuvenation OF
Aunt Mary" Rare Comedy Treat.
The comedy treat Of the present sea-
| son was afforded Odeon patrons lase
night when Miss MaysRobson appeared
with a strong company in the rama
! tization of Anne Warmers novel, Inc
/ Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary
Miss Robson's vehicle Is d~eltghtfullH
American, and that fact alone would
have a. tendency to make it pleasing
were there not so many other redeem
ing features. AS the comedian would
put it. the production is n continuous
SCREAM" and yet intermingled with
the numerous artistic comedy features
are sufficient pathos, and sentiment, to
appeal to human interest, together win
a strong morale.
Miss Robson appears in the tftie
role of Aunt Mary. DISAPPOINTED IL
her %girlhood in a love affair, n mas
soured on the world and it's happiness.
Her one love and hope is a scape-
grace nephew, Jack, whose college car
Ger in a big city has brought him into
numerous scrapes. Damage suits Tor
different depredations begin to pour In
upon the young man, principally be-
cause of his wealthy aunt, who has
never failed to help him out in times
Of trouble. Aunt Mary stands by MIN
until a breach of promise suit stares
her nephew in the face. That is toe
much, and she his disin-
heritance.
In order to reconcile the aunt to the
boy the latter's friends write a letter,
telling Of Jacks illness, which sends
the wealthy spinster to the city. There
! Jacks friends plan to dine and wine
the maiden lady, and they show her Sc
many attentions that she becomes
welded to the life in a. great city. Her
~reiuvenation is marked, to such an ex-
tent that she even likes the smell OF
lciRaret smoke, and longs for it when
she returns to her New England farm
Jacks sweetheart does the honors tc
Aunt Mary in her own home, while dis
guised as a maid, and for her the older
woman forms a strong attachment. The
result is that Jacks marriage to the
girl of his choice is easily brought
about because Of his aunt's affection
for the girl.
In Miss Robson's supporting COM
pany there is not a weak spot, which
gives the production a smoothness ii
it's entirety. Miss Lila Blow made c
winsome Betty Burnett, Jacks sweet
heart. The character of Jack was mos
%acceptably filed by Jack Storey.
Miss Robson's strong work in the
character study of Aunt Mary wa:
most delightful in every way. Her in
depreciation of the character is il
keeping with what a reader would form
in his own mind from the book, witt
the exception that the actress person
ality would lend added interest. Thi!
was Miss Robson's first appearance
