THE NEW LYRIC

This evening, and tomorrow after
noon and evening, will present the last
opportunities Of witnessing that SUI
perb presentation of'"The Spendthr1ft,
| in which the Frank Carpenter Stock
company is making so complete a sue
cess at the Lyric this week. This is
without question the finest offering
the company has given us thus far
and all who have not yet witnessed
should do so without fail.
THE Spendthrift' is splendid
drama, and SO finely presented by the
tive treat to all lovers Of the higher
class of plays. The production which
Mr.. Carpenter has given Of the play
merits every consideration, and the
patrons of the playhouse are delight
ed with it in every way.
The sale of seats for the remaining
performances is very large, and those
who delay too long in obtaining them
will suffer a keen disappointment.
Can one evil mind poison whole
household?
Is the human brain capable of pro-
ducing disastrous effects upon
household ,ha by adverse suggestive
Do we realize adequately how ou1
mental attitudes influence our lives
and the lives of those about US?
All these questions are asked In The
Rosary" by Edward r. Rose, which
is to be the offering of the Frank Car
penter Stock company at the Lyric
theatre all of next week, with the reg
ular matinees, Tuesday, Thursday and
Saturday, and at the regular Lyric
prices.
And the answer? Well, the play is
the answer. For one-half its course 1t
builds up condition Of affairs in a
typical American family of today. The
inner life of each member is shown
and there is the subtle feeling produc-
ed that all is not right, that one MIND
is not in full accord with the peace
and happiness of that household.
There are no words spoken directly
that tell this, but it is in the air.
Nor can amy one point to the one who
is working against the general har-
mony.
Then suddenly the crash comes and
doubts his wife, drives her out and
faces absolute ruin. Then comes the
power of the mind that seeks only
truth and goodness; the mind that has
harbored only good thoughts. 1t Is
that of Father Kelly, the priest, who
solves the mystery and brings each
member of the little family circle back
to peace and happiness.
''The Rosary has just finished three
successful runs in New York, Boston
and Chicago and is the sensation OF
the year.
Mr.. Carpenter guarantees the same
elegance of stage production, and the
same adequate dramatic rendition
which have characterized all the Offer
ings of the Carpenter company thus
far. Seats are now on sale for the
entire week, and are going very rapid
ly This is an ideal offering for the
Lenten season, and one which our play
lovers cannot afford to miss.

LILAC BLOSSOMS
written for the Farmer by

Cora Hartman.)
OH lilac branches.
Bereft and bare.
Gray and sombre everywhere
Know you Spring advances?
OF bud or leaf see no trace,
Trails Of snow lie on the ground.
Graves Of flowers are all around
Rose bush stands in icy case.
Yet when Easter lilies bloom
You must be arrayed in green,
And melted Amethysts and roses
gieam
In purple wine to dye each plume.
Or else you must an migrate stand
To the warming friendly sun
That stirs your sap (ungrateful one),
And the showers and breezes helping
hands.
I too, stand, sombre, bereft,
Wrecks and losses strew the ground.
Graves of hopes are all around
Gray the sky, no light is left.
Yet, must I, an migrate stand,
Migrate for the mercies shown
migrate for the kindness known
Faithless to the eager hands
Unless L too, will meet the Spring,
Attune my heart to growing things
Bid Towering hope again grow near.
Frail souls, storm beaten down,
In the sunshine, rise again,
Sweeter, buds the faith of men,
Stronger" upon the heart rebounds.

THE USE OF LEMON JUICE.

condition. Keep a halved lemon on
the sink-board for use after the dish
es are washed and you will find that
your hands no longer feel dry and
rough on account of the unpleasant
task of dish-washing. Furthermore,
lemon-juice will eat away the cuticle
which grows on the finger nails and
requires constant attention
Another use for lemon-juice, which
is not commonly known is to keep
boiled potatoes from turning black.
Just squeeze the juice into the kettle
while the potatoes are boiling and
there will be no unsightly discolora-

CHILDREN ON DECREASE,
THIS OBSERVER SAYS

BY The United Press.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept 24.-Dr. J.
Asphalt McCraigh, vice president Of
the National Christian League for
the Promotion of Purity, in an inter-
view today stated that during the
last fifty years the proportion of chill
dren to every 1000 women Of child
bearing age has decreased i'm the
United States by 1872 or on an aver
age of thirty in each decade The
figures indicate that If changes like
those which have been i'm progress for
the last half century and a half there
VIII be no children IN this country.
Two reasons for the decrease in
the birth rate in the country is first
due to deliberate and voluntary avoid
ance of child bearing, and second,
the fact that the encroachment of
disease has materially affected the
birth rate"
I'm the discussion of present con-
ditiOns in the low wage condition of
the country and in the big Cities" he
sand, there are six indications of so
cial evil which are enforcing atten-
ton today. Firstly, the ominous po-
litical unrest between men and wo-
men showing itself in the woman's
suffrage issue; secondly, the prophe-
sizes of national disaster based upon
the steadily decreasing birth rate;
third, the increase of home devasta-
ton evidenced by the divorce courts;
fourth, the prevalence of social de-
generacy showing itself: fifth, the APP
palling Entertainments of certain dis
eases; and, lastly. the predominance
of crime having its root in perver-
sions.'
In talking of the low wage ques-
ton. il is due to economical condi-
tons. which exist throughout the
country.
1.-THE manufacturer or the business
man who is making his money wants
the work done in the cheapest way
and employ young girls and boys at
low salary which is barely enough
to live on and it is due TO the greedi-
ness of employers that causes this
great social evil"
