DOUBTS ABOUT
 FUTURE OF AIRSHIPS

Chicago, Jan. t21.-Doubts about the future of airships are expressed by the commercial associations of en- terprising cities which are actively hustling for new industries. Tn in- viting new enterprises to their midst some of them specifically bar airsh ps factories. The recent catastrophe in California and Louisiana resulting in the deaths of Hoxsey and Moisant did not add anything to the favor ;n which hard-headed business men hold the airship companies which have sprung up and gone forth looking for locations. The Wright brothers have not yet dispelled altogether popular prejudice against which they con- tended so long and with such bril- liant outcome.
 Mattress factories, stove factories, paper mills and denatured alcohol works but no airship factories for us,' said one commercial club.

MOUSE" TO
 GIVE A MATINEE HERE

It is often said that most Germans take beer, but in such moderate quan- titles as to stimulate health. They also take The Blue Mouse" which is more inv gorating but less intox- icating than beer. Another differ ence is 'The Blue Mouse" can be taken in larger quantities.
 There's one reason the Germans have liked it for over a year. Clyde Fitch, the playwright. realized tn S. and had it introduced to New York. It has been an immense success. Thousands took large doses every tun'ty at the Lyric. A similar oppor- tunity will be ofere dhere by Mir. Carpenter next Saturday for a mati- ness and night at the Elks theater
 'sThe Blue Mouse" of course, s a German farce adapted to the Amer ican stage by MT. Fitch. Moreover, it is said to be the sensation of the age.

 ory and lame back, brought on by
 exec sses, unnatural drains, or the follies of youth, that has cured so many worn and nervous men right in their ow1 homes-without any addi- tional help or medicine-that I think every man who wishes to regain his manly power and virility quickly and quietly should have a copy So I have
 determined to send copy of the prescription free of charge in a plain, ordinary sealed envelope to any man
 who will write me for it.
 This prescription comes from phy-
 lian who has made special study of men and I am convinced that it is
 the surest acting combination for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor failure ever put together.

 to send them a copy in confidence so that any man anywhere Who is weak and discouraged with repeated ia l.
 ures may stop drugging himself with harmful patent medicines, secure "Hat DelleFe IS the quickest ac1ng restorative upbuilding, SPOT-TOUCH- ING remedy ever devised, and so cure

THE MERRY WIDOW.
 COMING SOON.

The coming of the most phenomen- ally successful of modern light ope- ras. 'The Merry Widow to the Elks theater calls to mind the exceptiona! success with which it was greeted on
 ts presentation last season. With the organization which Henry W. Savage is sending here will come the famous English Grand Opera Orches- tra, which has always been a feature of the big operatic production
 The company is headed by Gertrude Bryan, who is considered by MT. Say age to be one of the best Son as Of the nine prima donas who have es- |sayed the title role under his man- agement in America Miss Bryan is an exquisitely finished comedienne possessed of soprano voice of W de range and singular sweetness and a personality which wins her instant favor the moment Of her entrance on the stage.
 George Damerel will be seen in the leading male role, Prince ,Danilo, most exacting part. The player ee- saying it's Interpretation must be a singer of exceptional brilliancy, a. finished actor and a graceful dancer. the dramatic side of the role is as lul- portant as it's musical sda, and Mir. Damerel is equal to all the require mentS. Harry Burgess will again play the Marsovian ambassador, Arthur Wlooley the comic ''nish," William V. Strung, 'Novo Kovich," F. w. Shack leford will be the De Jolidon, and Ma bel Arzella the Nutritious Natalie
 The operetta will be given the same elaborate mounting that characteriz- ed its original production. It's three settings depict the interior of the Marsovian embassy in Par.s on the night of the state ball; beautiful summer garden, and the interior of MaXim's famous restaurant in the French capitol, and teem with color '4ul life and animation, and abound ill atmosphere. The magn.ficence of the costuming has never been equalled On this continent.

THERE ARE NO
 LAZY" CHILDREN

There are two classes of children called lazy
 First, there is the very large class that has energy enough when it comes to play ng ball or jumping the rope. but develops tired feeling whenever the stove-wood or the broom is mentioned. To call this siazziness'' Is mere misuse of lan- guage. These children only wish to do the thugs in which they are in- terested, not those in which other people are interested. They have not yet realized that it is good to work. aud all that they need is edu cation that will turn their abundant activities into useful channels.
 Then, there are those who really seem lazy, who are listless. stupid, indifferent, who pay without enthu- siasm and work only because and when they must Many parents have 7 heen yexed and troubled by these children; but lately scientists have been invest gating this class, and they say that the trouble is not lag ziness, or stupidity or obstinacy. The Youths Companion gives the latest > conclusions;
 There Is no such thing as la zy" child. The normal child is in- terested. alert, bright minded, full; of waking curiosit.es about the world into which he has come and endow- ed with an almost unquenchable phy- sical vfvacity. What, then, is the matter with the little, inert, stupid. dull-eyed creatures, forever at the bottom of the c.aSs, who never put a question or seem to pass given point?
 "The matter is that they are ill, Some of them are hungry, and it is as hopeless to expect child to stu dy well when he needs food as it would be to expect fire that needs fuel to burn well. The hunger may be due to an actual lack of food, or | may be that the teeth are in such poor condition that the child can not chew, anl therefore does not digest, aSf 1t may be that the food offered il at home is entirely unsuited to it's needs.
 Some of the children can not hear srell and some can not see. They do not know what is the matter. They a7cept constant rebuke anl defeat -rith the dumb mystification of ignor- ance. Many of them have never drawn one natural breath since their birth, owing to the presence of en- 'ereed tonsls anl adenoids.
 These children can never com. ate with their fellows, until all these hindrances have been removed a
