For q l,ieasing personality, a cap- tiyating stHle, engaging manner, fas- cinating methods and sprightly ways, commend us to that little dramatic
 lodestone, Chic Perkins, whose live iy impersonations have won the high
 est concentrations of both the critic and the press and have been indellbly
 stamped with the mark of popular favor. The methods of this little lady are widely at variance with the old
 and hackened style of acting, which
 obtained in the past. The piquant freshness of her renditions are as grateful to the iaded mind, as spark
 linz ,lraught of cool water is to the parched and thirsting lip, To see "Chic" Perkins act is like breathing the soft sweet country air after a long and tedious sojourn in the noX- ious atmosphere of a big oyercroWded city. Her new play The Little Pros pector" is replete with all the fas- cinating elements of blended comedy, pathos and romance---a play ill which her genius finds the happiest expres- sion. No better play than "The Little Prospector" could have been written to exploit her talents, and it has all of the attendant accessories in the way of talented artists, splendid seen cry and novel stage effects "The Little Prospector" will be seen at the Elks Theater on Friday, February 1S.
