my wife suffered greatly from
faulty digestion" continues Mr.. Demp-

extremely nervous and couldn't sleep

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Lyric.


Two black-fac comedians. Ferns and
Howell, supply the laughs in the new
show a the Lyric this week. A marital
disagreement on the order OF the ones
which the press OF Richmond has been
an episode. called "On the Fourth
Floor" which is scenically effective.
and probably succeeds in generating a
man-size thirst in the masculine por-
ton of the audience. Only member
OF the Richmond police force could at
this stage OF the game in Richmond
appear at his own home at l o'clock
in the morning in n condition in which
he could not remember whether his
vito told him to take on drink and
come home at IL o'clock or twelve
drinks and come home AT ocolck, and
get by" with it. Such episodes be-
mond made no pretensions OF being
dry town. Walker and Texas do pretty
work in lariat throwing against an
especially effective background of
SAND and sage-grass and setting
sun big as a dishpan. There is
notable scarcity of girls in the new
show, for which reason the seats way
down front will not be in great de-
mand the first part OF the week. The
Northlanes and Jack Rano open the
new bill with "Modiste Shop a La
Cabaret" in which Riano reverses the
usual order Of things and give
laughable imitation of the tricks OF a
pet monkey on chain. Jack Ryan
and Billy Joyce attempt to show the
New York styles in songs, which. while
the style OF singing may be all to
the good, the voices of the gentlemen
are far below par.
