The Play Was a Rare Treat

"The Tempest and Sunshine," which was presented in Williams by w. F. Mann last Monday night at the Odd Fellows opera house was one of the best dramatic produc- tion here this season. In short it was a rare treat to theatre goers of this city. The stage of the local opera house is not arranged as it should be in order to give the true effects of the play and for this reason the actors had to do their best to overcome the prevailing disadvantages, and to a certain ex- tent they succeeded.
 The scenery was beautiful, every thing used in the representation being carried by the company. The costuming was quaint and pretty, made in the fashion of 1850 which is the period of the play. The story is both strong and interesting dealing principallly with the south. ern aristocracy and is relieved with much comedy. Southern melodies were introduced throughout the play.
 The acting was over done at times, but this would not have shown 80 plainly had the stage been further away from the audi ence. The butchering of the sunny southern dialect was the only bad feature of the entire company. For instance "aye's" was used instead of soft "ah's" of the southland, etc.

SILER CITY
LADY A VICTIM
Mrs. GilIiIand, of Siler City, Was
Left in Bad Shape as a Result
Of an Attack Of the Grip.

Siler City, N. CT was in bad
shape" writes Mrs. Sarah ]. Gilliland,
of this place, "after an attack of the
grip; was bothered with womanly
troubles, but since taking Cardui am
much improved. 1t has done me more
good than the doctors and | feel 1t
saved my life, after all other methods
had failed.
81 thank you for the good that Cardui
has done to me and hope every lady
who suffers will try it. l will recon-
mend it to my friends"
You can rely on Cardui being of bene-
fit to you. It's ingredients are mild
herbs, having a gentle, tonic effect on
the female constitution. The special
herbs are grown abroad and imported
by us direct They are not in the Phar-
macopeia, nor for sale at druggists
except as put up by us, so you cannot
get the effect of Cardui, except by buy
ing Cardui, the woman's tonic.
No other medicine or tonic has ex-
actly the same results as Cardui, no
other has the record of so years Of
successful treatments of cases of fe-
male weakness, debility and disease.
1t is certainly worth trying.

Little Helen, during the three years
of her life. had never been separated
from her elder sister night or day for
more than few minutes at a time;
but at last the time came when the
sister went away for whole day.
The child tried every game and occu-
patton that she knew of, and new
one or two suggested by her mother,
but they all palled.
Finally she gave up and stood and
looked sadly out of the window. Then
she sighed deeply and said:
ITS still the same old day, isn't it,
mother?" Woman's Home Companion.
