Women who are too fat may now re-

discovered that an exclusive diet of
milk will cure obesity. A small quaint
ity of water may be drunk, but with this
exception, nothing else must be taken
into the stomach but milk. The patient
will suffer neither hunger nor thirst,

Whiteside-Strauss Company at Opera
House All Next Week.


The Whiteside-Strauss company viii
open weeks engagement at the Barre
opera house commencing Monday, July
18th.
The company although new to the
Barre theatre goers, IS far superior to
any organization Messrs Whiteside &
Strauss has put on the road this year,
and IS indeed far better than the great
er number of repertoire companies which
are on the road
The individual members Of the COM
pany are thoroughly capable, and the
SIX big specialties seen between the
acts are of the highest order.
The two Mysterious Kilbys, who do
a high class and refined escape from
trunks, ropes, mail bags, paper bags,
hand-cutfs, straight jackets, are alone
worth the price OF admission.
Tho company will open Monday night
presenting for the first time at popular
prices, a story Of home entitled aIis
Sisters Sin," q new and original Am.
erican comedy drama, a play equally as
good as Way Down East.
Ladies' tickets will be issued for
Monday night only.
