u a JConsumate Artist.

There was no question when Mr..
Skinner came on the stage last night
in his dramatic entry at the end OF
the first night act that he was a con.
sumate artist. He lowered over the
rest Of his company in some respects
but even that was necessary to the
artistic presentation of the character
Col. PHILIPPE Bridau. 1t reminded
one of Mansfield in Cyrano de Berger.
&C But there was not the slightest
plagiarism of acting. 1t was simply
that the staggering. bouyant, playful
cavalier was like that other Gascon
who made sonnets as he ran his op.
ponent though with his rapier.

of GRADUATED Sugar, add one
half cup of water, stir and let
boil just moment. Take a tea.
spoonful every one, two or
three hours. as required. The
taste is very pleasant, and if
kept well corked. it never spoils.
It is equally good for all men,
bers Of the family, regardless of
age.
This simple article usually
stops q deep-seated cough in
twenty-four hours.
In making this, however. do
not expect good results by using
any Of the numerous pine oil or
pine tar preparations. None Of
these compare with the real
Pinex itself. which is the most
valuable concentrated COM

Extract. All druggists have 1t
or can get 1t very easily on re-
quest.
The total cost Of full pint
Of this unequaled mixture is
about fifty-four cents.

Reports from the country say that the peasants are refusing to take any of the precautions that have been ordered, under the belief that the dis ease is Heaven-sent and inescapeable. On account of this the authorities are proving unequal to the. task of prop erly combating the disease. sa

 These statements do not apply to the block pavement on Fairfield avenue
 but to the macadam pavement beyonds The macadam is a state road and a large part of the expense Of doing the work is met from the state treasury. A portion of the money the state ia to pay has already been turned over to the city. The balance will be witfi@ held until the other half of the high~ way is completed. #
 It is said. here. however, by persona who are in a position to know that the work will never be accepted by State Highway Commissioner Macdon-s ald in it's present condition. This means that further time and money will have to be expended before the job can be- made satisfactory.
