BId HIT AT ACADEMY

The new musical comedy. Miss
Springtime." which was presented AT
the Academy last night, was pro.
nounced a decided hit and gained in
stant favor with the audience. Taken
as a whole it differs from the usual
musical comedy in several respects
It has a well-defined plot carried
throughout the production apd at
times II takes or p so-smuity that all
most brings tears Excellent settings
and costumes add to the piece. which
is one Of the best Of its line that has
visited Richmond this season, The
music is catchy and well sung, and
it's beauty is added to by harp in
the orchestra, which is in competent
hands
Chief among the ssloists is Miss Else
Adler. She plays the part Of the couu-
try girl who wishes to obtain fame in
opera and deals with her trials in
gaining her idea. Her delightful
voice her sprightly dancing, her
beauty and personality add greatly 70
the production. She Is an ideal type
for the part.
Assisting her is George MacFarlane,
a singer Of ability and the possessor
of q good voice. MIR. MacFarlane
makes a good opera singer OF the
Caruso tyne, who desires TO get away
from the press gents and rest for
short time in his native village.
John e. Hazard furnishes the great
sr part of the comedy Of the play his
droll way of saying things invariably
brings laughter Others who take a
prominent part are Charles Meakins,
Frances Cameron and John e. Young.
The songs are numerous. chief
among them being. "Once Upon
Time" my Castle in the Air and
"Some One"

acid which overworks the kidneys IN
their effort to filter 1t from the blood
and they become sort of paVatyzed
and loggy. When your kidneys get
sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels
removing all the body's urinous waste,
else ou have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours,
tongue is coated, and when the wealth
err is bad you have rheumatic twinges.
The urine is cloudy, full OF sediment,
channels often get sore, water scaids
and you are obliged TO seek relief two
or three times during the night.
Either consult a good. reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys will then act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acids Of grapes and lemon juice
combined with lithia, and has been
used for generations to clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to

dancing, and there is no style of dane

are comedians in other respects than
dancing, and in addition to a very
acceptable dancing program, they
have gathered together enough bright
stories to provide them with an ex-
ceedtngly humorous dialogue.

there will be the usual high grade
motion picture plays, including the
