RINGWORM ON SHOULDER

Box 1873, Downey, Cal-"My little

called ringworm on his shoulder and
the back of his neck. 1t started in
small pimple like blister and kept
getting larger till it was the size of a
dollar. One place was as large as
three silver dollars. They were round
and a mass Of watery blisters. Wher-
ever the water would touch it would
cause another blister, commencing an
other sore and so on. 1t was very
red and angry and would itch and
burn so badly that he could not sleep
or, in fact, sit still at times. He
would cry when I would touch it.
When he would rub or scratch it it
would look like chopped meat. His

faster than the means of subsistence, and
he predicted time of universal famine. He

soprano had called off an Atlanta date

Nine Gadski a favorite In the Metro

Nine. Marcela Sembrich's ingrowing

AT THE THEATERS
TWO FEATURE ACTS ON
GRAND ELL MAKE III

Juliet(O and the Shillin2s, sharpshoot-
ers, are the two acts which make the
Bill at the Grand worth while The
charming little comedienne, who is noted
on the New York stage as the cleverest
impersonator ever seen there, has a num-
Der OF delightful character songs, which
are exceedingly well done The last thing
she does is a rapid-fire imitation OF a
dozen famous actors and actresses, Of
which the only fault to be found is its
preVlty: Many people who know the
fame OF Juliets impeI sonations wished for
more or these limitations of famous people
rather than the character songs; or may
be IN addition to the character songs
for the little lady's act was not long
enough to satisfy her audience though
she claimed to be so worn out that
really, she could not do another thing!"
CThis was the little curtain speech in
sisted upon by Juliet's admirers)
The Shillings have the cleverest shoot
ing act ever seen here. Their work Is
truly marvellous and, in some instances,
is rather too thrilling for d nervous per-
son to enjoy very much.
Another act out of the ordinary is the
bounding gymnasts," billed as the three
Escardos, who give IA fine exhibition, full
Of grace and movement
