A Clever Artist.
If there is any criticism to make
about the booking agency which sup
plies talent to the Star theatre, it is
that insufficient information is fur
nished in advance of the players ar
rival For instance, Bert Wiggin
was booked here as simply a COM
edian. It was learned by accident
that he is also juggler. The audi
ence last evening was surprised
therefore when he also introduced
some very clever cartoon work with
the erayon.
Between acts Mr.. Wiggin showed
la disposition to make himself use
full as well as entertaining. While
talking to friends in his dressing
room he painted and drew a half
dozen or more signs to be placed in
store windows to advertise the bill at
the Star this week. They are excel
lent work although tossed off with
ease.
If you want a good laugh get your
mouth fixed for it when the Barton,
Bradt Co. begin their original COM
edy skit, "The Piano Mover" These
people are not only good entertainers
but use good taste in the presenta-
tion of their act.
Messrs. Albin and Taylor, man.
ayers of the Star, are to be con-
graduated on the clean character of
entertainment they are providing

Nature.
Leads by the hand her little child to bed.
Half willing, half reluctant to be led,
And leave his broken playthings on the
floor,
Still gazing at them through the open
Nor wholly treasured and comforted
BY promises of others in their stead.
Which though more splendid may not
please him more;
So Nature deals with us, and takes away
Our playthings. one by one, and by the

Leads us to rest so gently. that we go
Scarce knowing If we wish to go or stay,
Being too full of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the

An Hour With Thee.

An hour with Thee. when earliest day
Dapples with gold the eastern gray,
o what can frame my mind to bear
The toll and turmoil, cark and care,
New griefs, which coming hours unfold.
And sad remembrance of the old?
one hour with Thee!
An hour with Thee. when burning June
Waves his red flag at pitch OF noon;
What shall repay the faithful swain
His labor on the sultry plain
And more than care or sheltering Dough
Cool feverish blood. and throbbng brow?
one hour with Thee.
One hour with Thee. when sun is set,
o what can teach me to forget
The thankless labors of the day,
The hopes the wishes flung away:
The increasing wants and lessening gains,
The masters pride who scorns my praise
One hour with Thee!
