Motion Pictures and Songs.

Manager Doherty Of Sheedy's thea
ter scores a ten strike this week with
the bill of vaudeville and moving pic
lures he has for the amusement OF
his growing list of patrons. as was
evident from the enthusiastic recep-
ton given to the numbers Monday
afternoon and evening. The house
was filed to its capacity.
Alyolo and Othelo, refined gym
mast team, prove that they are among
the best in the business and the real
spineless wonders. AIvolo stars in a
number Of startling contortion acts,
each one greeted with big hand, ana
does some pretty combination work
with his woman partner, Othelo. His
concluding act is q wonder, as he
makes a foot drop on his hands from
a table which Othelo holds on her
shoulders.
Josephine Arthur & co. are the
headliners in their sketch called The
Wager, which is capitally acted by the
company of three. In the list Of bright
ard entertaining sketches shown at
Sheedys, this is in the front ranks
with sparkling comedy that scored hits
all through the sketch. Two solos by
Miss Arthur are given in pleasing
soprano voice and are a strong addi-
ton to the sketch.
For the soubrette turn on the bill
Italia, 'the girl who writes the songs
she sings" fills the place to a nicely,
dainty in her dancing catchy in her
singing, and fine in the comedy line.
Moving pictures with new and enter
tanning subjects are shown before and

through the withdrawal of the 9Th and
18th grades to Billings hall. All the
teachers now have two grades in a
room, which is a condition satisfac-
tory to the town board. Miss Grace
S. Benjamin, who formerly had grades
5. 6, and 7, now has grades 4 and 5,
grade 4 having been moved up from
Miss Mary L. Brunelle's room. Thir-
teen children have been moved out Of
the primary into Miss Brunelle's room.
giving her grades and 8, where she
formerly had grades and 4. This has
relieved the crowded condition in the
primary for Miss Bessie L. Wilbur and
her assistant, Miss Charlotte Gebrath.
In securing Miss Plunkett to teach
the new room, the committeeman feels
that the district has obtained an ex-
cellent teacher. She has been princi-
pal of the school at Sterling, and it
is with reluctance that they allowed
her to leave them now. She preferred
to teach in Norwich, having been
teaching at Sterling the last four years.
She graduated from the Norwich Free
Academy in the class of 1901. AS she
had a state teachers certificate she
did not have to take an examination
before the town board before being
accepted to teach in this district.

SHOULD KNOW OF
THIS PRESCRIPTION.
Also Valuable Advice How to Relieve
rheumatism and Kidney Trouble.

Cut this out and put in some safe
place, for it is valuable and worth
more than anything else in the world
if you should have an attack OF
rheumatism or bladder trouble or any
arrangement of the kidneys what
ever.
The prescription is simple and can
be made up by anyone at home. Inc
ingredients can be had at any good
prescription pharmacy and all that Is
necessary is to shake them well in a
bottle.
Here It is: Fluid extract dandelion,
one-haif ounce; compound Kargon,
one ounce; compound syrup of sarsa-
parilla, three ounces.
Take a teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime. A few doses is said
to relieve almost any case of blad-
der trouble, frequent urination. pain
and scalding weakness and backache,
pain above the kidneys, etc. 1t is now
claimed to be the method Of curing
chronic Rheumatism. because of its
direct and positive action upon the
eliminative tissues Of the kidneys. 1t
gives them life and power to sift and
strain the poisonous waste matter and
uric acid from the blood, relieving the
worst forms Of rheumatism and kid
ney or bladder troubles. The extract
dandelion acts upon the stomach and
liver and is used also extensively for
relieving constipation and indigestion.
Compound sarsaparilla cleans and en-
riches the blood There is nothing
better than Kargon Compound for the
kidneys.
This prescription is safe to use at
anv time.

BREED THEATER.
High Class Moving Pictures and Songs.

Among the beautiful pictures shown
att the Breed theater Monday night
none were more so than the colored
ones that accompanied the song when
Jack Comes Sailing Home" The pic
lures for this song, which Is pleasingly
rendered by Mr.. Cooper, are taken of
the battleships now on the trip around
the world. They are exclusively of
the ships preparing to leave and the
climax Is reached where the flagship
Connecticut is shown in rich colors in
q square twenty feet square and meets
with thunderous applause. The sweet
little song ''Roguish Eyes," as render
ed by Madam Morelle, is another big
hit and never fails to make a second
rendition necessary. The moving pic
lures include the thrilling western pic
ture Prairie Town Romance" taken
on the extreme western prairie. This
picture includes buciing bronchos, alb
ductiOn, fake marriage and the general
pleasant denoumentt and is a very COM
plete story. THE TNoman's Way" is a
sensational pictur, and the Cure for
Govt" TOO MUC a Dog Biscuit con-
vulsed the audience
These will be shown daily until
Thursday, when the bill will be chang
ed. The audiences at both perform
ances were large and appreciative and
the attendance, which is increasing
daily, is most gratifying to the genial
management, who are untiring in their
efforts to entertain the public.
