AMUSEM ENTS.
High Glass Vaudeville

Local patrons of the theater were
treated to regular $3.50 vaudeville yes
terday at the Opera house. 1t was in
deed an enjoyable evening spent wit
Messing such a worthy presentation.
Such shows as the one this week will
do more to promote the interest in
vaudeville than any kind of advertiS-
ing could possibly do. The advance
announcement that the management
would offer its greatest program of the
season this week, has been lived ur
to the letter.
Not a weak spot in the makeup OF
the entire bill, each act a worthy head
liner.
The vaudeville opened with Ray
Myers, a dainty little miss. in songs
and dances. 1t is a safe prediction that
she is the classiest coincidence seen
on the local stage in many years.
Palmer and Lewis, the travesty
stars. was the next offering. Their act
was the one long expectation of the
evening, and that expectation was MOI
a disappointment. 1t was the bigges,
vaudeville surprise that this city ever
witnessed. Such grandeur, such clever
performers! Why, their act will be
the means of many persons coming the
second time, that's the kind of act this
clever couple presents.
The dance was presented with ORR
entail stage settings and beautiful cleo
trical effects. In fact, no detail was
left undone to make this the grandest
stage picture we have had the pleas
ure of seeing in many day.
Ill of ot a IonQnpCG
number, both members portraying JaI
characters. A very pretty finish. to the
best vaudeville turn seen in this city
this season.
The same vaudeville will be on today
and tomorrow with a new set of pic
lures.

DAILY GAIN In WEIGHT
Comes to Those Who Use Samose,

The poor thin. gemaciated person when
he or she becomes plump. rosy and ro-

is such a thing as weakness and under

Samose restores health to the whole
system so that the tissues assimilate
from the food all of those elements which
make solid bone. firm muscle. pure blood
and sufficient fat to restore beautiful
and symmetrical outlines to the figure
An increase in weight is seen from the
first weeks use of samose. but if it does
and give you full vigor and vitality.
Druggists Bowditch. Webster & Co. will
return your money. You certainly can
afford to try Samose on this guarantee

MELONS IN WINTER.
nueeoss Of Bxperimenta1 0rovvAng Of
= Russian Variety Of Mask
melon n Utah.

"And now, children" said Dean Peck,
''let US cut . melon" Even the young
est child snickered. For outside there
was snow and ice, and with Christmas
hardly . week away, how could the
good dean be 90 funny ~ to suggest
melons?
But the wise dean merely smiled and
introduced quiet, pleasant man in
gold-rimmed spectacles-A. L. Hitch
cock, Of California. And Mr.. Hitch
cock had under his arm an oval bum
die that might have been the hugest
egg of the biggest ostrich that ever
shed feather. That's what 1t might
have been, but It wasn't that. 1t was
. melon-a muskmelon-and in the
winter time. It was big melon, says
the Denver Post.
Now, letting alone the fact that it
was q big melon to begin with, it GER
tainly did seem as though there was
something strange about that melon.
All the children had some, and they
ate and ate, yet when they were done
there was still enough melon for the
dean to take home. And he had some,
and his family had some, and only the
nurse asked for more, 20 there was
really something wonderful about that
melon besides it, being ripe week
before ChristmAs.
There was another wonderful thing
about the melon: Il grew In desert
1.-The melons are called Khiva winter

headquarters for them in this coun-
try 10 ct Elgin. Utah, IN the great des'

raised all sorts OF melons for years
has taken up the raising Of winter
watermelons and muskmelons for seed
They have become 40 we'll known now
that he can hardly keep up with the
demand for seed, even at Is cents On
ounce. Yet hve years ago these mel
ons were unknownin the United States
THE government got the first seed
from Khiva. Asiatic Russia. and sent
. sample to Mr.. Brown to try. II
everybody's surprise, the melons die
exceedingly we'll in the desert, though
1T Rocky Ford. famous for melons
they failed.
"They are picked In October and re
quire almost two months to ripen aft
Or they are picked. Then they viii
keep until March.
