EVERYTHING IS IN
GOOD ORDER

The BijoU Theatre this week is of
fering an exceptionally clever bill.
Many comments were heard Monday
and Tuesday in regard TO the many
features of interest there. The chill
dren enjoy it immensely: and the
grown up folk spend a pleasant hour
under the cooling and refreshing
breeze of the many electric fans. The
BijOu has succeeded in booking many
very clever actors and actresses of
late, and the public has had the bene-
fit of this at very small cost. Every
thing is in apple pie order at the
Bijou at all times and the attaches
are polite and attentive under all cir
cumstances. Absolute order is pre-
served and general satisfaction pre-
walls. Everyone has the habit of visit
ing the Bijou several times each week
