Good Show at Opera House.

Munthe's Modern Dramatic Players
opened a weeks engagement at the
Grand Opera House to large audience
last night. THE Man From Broadway"
was the bill given and it was we'll pre-
scented and received. The play was a
little slow in the first act, but the second,
third and fourth made up for it and a
we'll pleased audience left the house.
The leading man, E. b. LaRenz, is fine,
Miss Leah Lessi, leading lady, is good,
while their support is above the aver
age. 1t is splendid show for the mon
ey, 10, 20 and 30 cents. and that it will
be we'll patronized each night there is
every reason TO believe. The bill for to-
night is THE Revelation" an intensely
interesting drama, and one that should
draw like sticking plaster. Prof. Poe

class music last night and will continue
to do so throughout the week. The mu-

The Hook Worm

While we are battering with the Hook
Worm, the Fly, the Mosquito and other
form of germs and germ carriers. many
have forgotten one of the worst of them.
A great majority of people have been
content for years to take up and beat
their carpets every fall and spring,
knowing that it is impossible to get out
all the dust and germs, leaving the car
pet much the worse for the beating, but
must be content, knowing that they did
the best they could. A great many de-
vices have been brought out and many
with some merit but at last perfe CT
cleaner has been invented which cleans
thoroughly and can be operated by a
child and without raising any dust from
the carpet. w. F. Higgins. 63-lt
