the Magician mas. AS an enter
tainer Thurston has
become a national institution. 1t has
always been his custom to present
new mysteries each year which is,
perhaps, his chief claim to popularity.
1t is said that his performance for
this season will be along lines new
to the amusement world, and will be
an exhibition which is mystifying in
the extreme. Some of his most elabor-
ate presentations are labeled Ghosts;
or, Do the Spirits Return?" "Gravita-

The Vampire" and "An Invisible
Flight" One has to keep his eyes
and his attention fixed in order to fol-
low the different mysteries, they are
so sudden and so astonishing. The
Thurston idea makes for good in the
sense that it contributes materially
and sensibly to the JOY of loving; and
it is doubly priced in that this holds
good for the grownups as well as the
little folk.
