LYRIC

The Minstrel of CIares' in which Chauncey Olcott made his greatest hit, and which is to be presented at the Lyric theatre next week as the closing attraction of the CaIburn Stock com pany, is one of the most delightful plays in which the great tenor ever appeared. That it will be given a, pro- duction at the Lyric theatre which will conpare faVorably with the produc- ton given under O1cott's direction is assured. The piece has been in re- hearsaI for the past week, and scenic artists and carpenters have been bus fly at work constructing special seen cry for the play.

Mr. Stanford will take Chauncey Ol- cottss part in this play next week, and with musical comedy, besides his ex- periences in the .slegftimate', drama, he is sure tp make success Of the part he will essay at the-Lyric.
 Besides MT. Stanford, other members of the CaIburn Stock company will ap- pear in the Minstrel of CIare,s and as 1t is to be their last appearance this season in stock at the Lyric, there is no doubt but that hundreds of their friends will turn out at every perform ance to see them play.
 .sSo Much For So Much,' the play , written by Willard Mack, the author of Kick In.'' who is now at the Bridgeport hospital following an as sau1t by two thugs while on his way to the Stratfield Saturday night. is still playing to exceptionally large crowds, and is proving to be one of the real treats of the season.

a Remedy
For All Pain

"The efficiency OF any drug" says DR.. G. p.
Robbins. is known TO US by the results we
obtain from its use. III we are able TO con-
troll pain and disease by means OF any pre-
paration, we certainly are warranted IN its
use. One OF the principal symptoms OF all
diseases Is pain, ard this is what the patient
most often applies ~ Us for, l. e. something
20 relieve his pain. IL we can arrest this
promptly, the patient is most liable 20 trust
in US for the other rem edtes which will effect
permanent cure. One remedy which 1
have used largely In my practice IS Anti
kamnia Tablets. Many and varied are their
uses. j have put them to the test on many
occasions, and have never been disappOint-
ed. i found them especially valuable for
headaches Of malarial origin, where Quinine
was being taken. They appear to prevent
the bad after-efects Of the Quinine. Anti
kamnia Tablets are also excellent for the
headaches from improper digestion; also
for headaches OF a neuralgia origin, and es-
pecially for women subjects to pains at certain
times. Two Anti-kamnia Tablets give
prompt relief, and in short time the patient
s. able to 90 about as usual" These tablets
may be obtained at all druggists. Ask for
AK Tablets. They are also unexcelled for
headaches, neuralgia and all pains.
