LYRIC

'fThe Only Son. Conan and Harris big New York success, will be given for the first time in stock at the Lyric theatre this week, beginning with the performance this evening. That the play will be one of the big gest attractions the Lyric manage ment has been able to offer the thea tre-going public of Bridgeport this season goes without saying. The rec ord which "tThe Only Son. made in New York is all the endorsement needed to make it one of the biggest stock successes ever presented by the Ca1burn players.
 The play is one which will appeal to every mother, every mothers son, and every other member of the fam fly. It is 8 play of fiIia1 affection and youthful love, with enough of the wild oats'' element in it to make the plot genuinely interesting.
 Lowell Sherman will play the leading role, and Miss Suzanne Jack son, Miss Violet Barney, Edward Darney, and the rest of the Ca1burn players will be seen at their best in the production. Manager Frank l.. Callahan has staged the play with as much care as though it were the ori- ginal Broadway presentation of the piece, and as the play has been thor oughly rehearsed there is no reason in the world why it will not ''go big for the entire week.

Dr. Edwards Olive TabIets-the substitute for ca1omel-are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards deter mination not to treat liver and bowel complafnts(with calomel His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the good that calo1neI does but have no bad after effects. They don't inJure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel They take hold of trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong Iiquids It is best not to take caIo- mel, but to let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take it's place.

The State That Found a Better Way

CO es to prove that Vermont has

advance OF the average, but probably
the most unique instance was the way
the Vermonters settled upon a new
name for Wildersburg, quarter cen

That name did not please the
townsfolk because 1T had ever
sounded uncouthly and long" so the
records run. Interest being about
equally divided between Holden"
and Barre as substitute, they nit
upon a boxing match as an original
method OF settling the dispute. 1t
so happened that the Barre champ
ion won and Barre" the town has
been ever since, now famous as the
worlds leader in the manufacture OF
granite.
Going back to the days before
the Revolution, Ethan Allen and his
Green Mountain BOYS believed there
was better way than King Georges
method OF governing their part OF the
world, and In the name of the great
Jehovah, and the Continental Con
gress,' they proceeded to carry out
their belief So, after quelling all

Thaddeus Fairbanks went into the

weight all his hemp after the manner
then in vogue. So, he set out to find
