"MARY'S ANKLE.

There is considerable interest in
"Mary's Ankle, the first of the new
series Of A. H. Woods productions,
which Mr.. Woods will present at the
Apollo Theatre, for an engagement of
three days. beginning Thursday, May
31st. "Mary's Ankle" is a distinctly
novel farce comedy in three acts by
May Tully, full of irrepressible youth
and diverting comedy. 1t is by long
odds one of the best farces that has
come to Mr.. Woods notice in several
seasons, and promises to be an even
greater success than Cheating Cheat
ers", Mr.. Woods hit of last season.
Miss Tully. who is well known as a
writer for the stage, is said to have
evolved an amazingly original play
out of the farcical adventures of three
penniless but attractive young men,
and a PARTICULARLY bewitching girl,
who meets them and unwittingly be-
comes a partner in their schemes un-
der most surprising circumstances.
Mr.. Woods has selected a company of
notable players including Irene Fen
wick, Walter Jones, Selda Sears, Lou

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness, and
that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
is caused by an infamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when
1t is entirely closed, Deafness is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be reduced and
this tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever. Many
cases Of deafness are caused by catarrh, which
is an inf1amed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be
cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine. Circulars

Day of GLORIOUS
Memories

VAT ITH the civil war experiences
wv merely a matter of fragrant,
vicarious memory to most Of
us, it is inevitable hat the celebration
of Memorial day should take on an en-
tirely different character as the years
go by than was the case at the moment
of it's institution, when a poignant
sense of personal losses pervaded the
ceremonies and determined their place,
the cemetery, and the drift of the add
dresses, says the Philadelphia Ledger.
This is a natural change, and, with
the ~assuaging of grief, the day has be-
come n of glorious rather than sor-
row fraught memories, in which the
sacrifice of the individual on both sides
has been merged into the general sig
niticance of the day as a commemora-
ton of principles which ever rise above
the accidents of time and the plans
and purposes of men. In other words,
the day, quite rightly, is given over to
a searching of the hearts as to wheth-
er We understand the lessons of the
past while enjoying, in peace, those
lliAIiSo noIA ~ LII liz LIZ WIZ wiz
ing to do and die that the Union might
prevail.
The frank transformation of Memo
rial day from a holy day to a 'holi
day has been a marked feature of
such commemorative occasions in all
times. Owing to a misunderstanding
of national as well as human psychol-
ogy, however, some complaint over this
phase of Memorial day celebrations
has been voiced, but this is a narrow
and mistaken viewpoint. For, indeed,
historic analogies are all one way.
The Greeks and the Romans glorifed
their heroes by funeral games. This
was also a Scandinavian custom and
is rooted deeply in all human expert
ence in all peoples, primitive and civ
ilized. Hence the fact that Memorial
day surpasses all others as a day of
sports is not at all Inconsistent with
true and abiding realization of its es-
sential solemnities.
Youth. clarifying in its strength, rep
resenting the physical prowess of the
nation, a conseerate itself in no bet
ter way to those principles for which
the heroes of the civil war fought than
by its ecour to field and track and
water course at a time of the year
when nature itself is signifying its re-
birth and is in the full flush of its orig
inal and seasonal vigor. The lessons
of the day are not curtailed by the fact
that the holiday character of the occa-
sion brings OF millions to celebrate in
merrymaking its glorious memories.
They also serve who are cheerfully
adding to the vital of the
living nation as well as they who sor-
row by the tomb.

Proper Flag Display on May 80.

A
The following clause is from the
United States army regulations and in
dicates the proper use of the American
flag on Memorial day:
"On Memorial day, May 80, at all
army posts and stations the national
flag will be displayed at half staff from
sunrise till midday, and Immediately
before noon the band or field music
will play some appropriate air, and the
national salute Of twenty-one guns
will be fired at II m. at all posts and
stations provided with artillery.
"At the conclusion of this memorial
tribute at noon the flag will be hoisted
to the top of the staff and will remain
there until sunset.
when hoisted to the top of the staff
the flag will be saluted by playing one
or more appropriate patriotic airs. In
this way fitting testimonial of respect
for the heroic dead and honor to their
patriotic devotion will be appropriately
rendered"

Memorial day-we honor thee;
Our freshest chaplets we will
bring
And lay them reverentially
Upon each mound, while sweet
birds sing
Melodious lays
For bright spring days.
Victorious thou-sleep, soldier, sleep,
For thee this day we'll ever keep.
At last again a bugle blast
Will summon them "a final call)
(Earth's deeds are with the buried
past)
And penetrate each marble hall.
God knoweth well
All those who fell;
His roster roll bears each ones name
And sup~erscribed, Immortal fame"
Five decades have passed away;
Our flag floats DER the land and
sea,
It's folds encircling blue and gray,
For gray and blue united be.
And gray and blue,
Forever true,
Throughout the centuries to come
Will march in perfect unison.

The most impressive of the annual
ceremonies are those which are held at
the national cemetery at Arlington and
on the battlefield of Gettysburg. Ar
lington cemetery, on the Virginia hill
sides, rising in terraces from the Poto-
mac and overlooking the capital of the
republic, is the last earthly home of
thousands upon thousands of Americas
soldiers. On Decoration day a little
flag flies from every II of the multi
tude of small white headstones which
mark the last resting places of the mo-
