PLAZA

Some weeks ago we suggested to a certain, local vaudeville manager that there were many local theatre goers who were anxious to see Ward and Curran, the old timers, once more. That we were happily surprised to find them at the Plaza last night goes without saying. And from the up roar which seemed to increase in vol ume with each minute the popular pair were on the stage, we judge that every member of the large gathering was as pleased as ourselves. Pop Ward was a treat and his wit was sharpened to a razor edge. We laughed aloud with the rest. We simply couldn't help it. They are still doing '"The Terrible Judge" We hope they never stop doing it.
 The Three Weber Girls were anoth- CT treat They are pretty, shapely, have voices in their throats and nlm- ble toes on their feet. But what is better yet they have acrobatic talents that are remarkably unusual. The only fault we could find was that they didn't perfofm for about half an hour longer. Selfish, aren't we? So OAA AAA~ ANA - boarding house but Davitt and Duval handed us some new situations and, incidentally, a batch of perfectly new laughs They have some splendid material. Also the ability to use it successfully.

Dix's thrilling story, '@The Cost of Hatred" which was produced under the direction of George Melford.
 In her recent Morosco-Paramount productions, "RedeeTning Love" and "Out of the Wreck Kathlyn Williams has established herself as one of the foremost dramatic artists in the coln- try and her youth, personality and ability all go towards making her a great photo-dramatic favorite. Co., starring as she is with Theodore Rob- erts. the most distinguished character actor of the stage or screen, 1t is felt that this combination will prove most popular.
 The story of "The Cost of Hatred'' has to do with Sarita and Justus Graves. Graves, a stern, harsh man, seeing his wife, Elsie, in the arms of Robert Amory, shoots Amory and flees with his little daughter, Sarita, to Mexico.

URIC ACID
 ERADICATED
(By DIR. N. c. COoK)

(By DFt. ". V. COOIA)
 A poison as dangerous as strychnin is manufactured within our own body, called uric acid. When it accumulates in the body and the kidneys fail to earry it off, we suffer from dull head ache, sleeplessness, muscular pains, lumbago, or 1t may cause rheumatism or gout. The uric acid can be seen in the cloudy sediment in the water what is called the "brick dust" noted on the sides of the vessel containing it-after a few hours standing. The water is scant, high-colored, strongly acid, and this should be a danger sign, and if not taken in time, by cutting out the meat, tea and alcohol, may end in rheumatism or gout.
 Drink plenty of water between meals-a pint of hot water half an hour before meals and take Anuric (double strength). This was first dis covered by Dr. Pierce of the Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N.Y., and is harm less to the system, but sure and effec- tive in carrying off the uric acid. It stimulates the kidneys and helps them to carry off the uric acid poison. An uric can be obtained at almost any drug store, and helps to counteract the acfdity of the system.
 A blockade in the intestines piles a heavy burden upon the liver. If the intestines are choked or clGSged up, the circulation of the blood become es poisoned and the system becomes loaded with toxic waste, and we suffer from headache, yellow-coated tongue, bad taste in mouth, nausea, or gas, acid dyspepsia, languor, debility, yell low skin or. eyes. At such times one should take a pleasant laxative. Such one is made of the Mayapple, leaves of aloe and root of jalap, first extract ed and put into ready-to-use form by Dr. Pierce, nearly fifty years ago, and sold by all druggists as Dr. ~Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.-Adv.

An interesting incident is told about Mischa Elman the violinist who is now ! touring this country for the sixth
 time. It happened when the young
 Russian was only 13 years old and
 was preparing to play with the Sym
 phony orchestra in St Petersburg. , The famous conductor, M. Colonne
 was going to direct the orchestra, and
 when he saw Elman, a mere child, he said with astonishment: "I have con
 ducted for the greatest artists, but never before have I received such an insult: I refuse to allow this little
 student to appear as soloist with the orchestra He must play with piano accompaniment"
 Accordingly, young Mischa's part of tho frogram which was the Wieniaw- sld Faust Fantasie" was played with piano, and the house was in an uproar at the close of the number. Amid the excitement, M- Colonne came out up on the stage and congratulated FL

 This promise was fulfilled in 1905 in spite of the fact that the program was to be entirely Wagner. Elman was announced to play the Mendels- sohn concerto, and the audience strongly resented such an innovation. But M. Colonne said rom the plat form, eff anyone does not wish to hear this number he may go outside!'' At the close of the solo, Elman was re- called again and again and played no less than six encores. He will appear in Br1dgepor at the Park theatre on the evening of April 17th. Seats now selling at Steinert's.
