LECTURE ON TWILIGHT SLEEP.
: Davis Theatre, Monday, at 1o.3o a. m.
 For Women Only.

The first record of painless birth is found in the Bible where it says that Adam fell into a dreamless sleep in the Garden of Eden and during which one of his ribs were removed, and on awakening he found Eve standing by his side. Ever since that time the various tribes of birth have attempted to produce painless birth. In India the natives burned charcoal in a braziere, the fumes of which stu pify the patient. In Africa the na- tives are given alcoholic drinks until they reach a stage of intoxication where they are insensibIe to pain, but it remained for Drs. Koenig and Gauss of the F'rauenklinik, Freiburg, Germany, to discover the Twilight Sleep treatment of Dammerschlaf as it is correctly called in Germany which produces painless birth without injury to mother or child Dr. Kurt E. Schlossingk, who for four years was their assistant and who is the first of their staff to visit the United States and hold clinics to teach the tech nique, is coming to Davis theatre, on Monday May 10th, where he will de- liver a lecture, illustrated with motion pictures at 10.30 a. m. pr. Schlossingk is giving these lectures for women only and will answer from the stage immediately after his lecture any question which the audience may pro pound. This is the first time that these pictures have been shown here and they have only publicly been shown in Washington, New York and Chicago. Seats on sale today, prices 75, 50 and 25 cents.

THE LIGHT LIES ON THE FARTHEF HILLS.

The clouds upon the mountains rest A gloom is on the autumn day; But down the valley, in the west The hidden sunlight breaks it's way A light lies on the farther hills. Forget thy sorrow, heart of minei Though shadows fall and fades the
 leaf
 Somewhere is joy, though 'tis not thine; The power that sent can heal thy
 grief;
 And light lies on the farther hills Thou wouldst not with the world b If ne'er thou knewest hurt and
 wrong; Take comfort. though the darkened sun Never again bring gleam or song The light lies the farther hills.
