"Chin Chin" Makes Hit .uith
Richmond Theatre Goers

"Chin Chin" even without Mont
gomery and Stone, proved to be one of
the most popular productions present
ed Richmond theater goers this sea-
son. The problem of getting guam
tity of scenery into rather limited
stage space was cleverly overcome by
the stage manager, and the play as
presented at the Murray last night
was pretty in setting and attractively
costumed.
Wills and Binder as the slaves of
the lamp. faced the difficulty of trying
to make a hit with part which had
already been played by somebody
much better. Their comedy lacked
the artistic touches. and sometimes
lapsed into mere Stiffness, but they
received generous applause, and were
popular with the audience generally.
George Usher was handsome as AL
ladin, and Violet Tree, whose dance
with Walter Wills, was one of the
hits of the evening, was a general IA
yorite. Mary DUNCAN played the
Yankee princess who won the heart
of Alladin.
The chorus had some good voices,
and all the principals sang well. A
saxophone "clown band" with Lew
Gould as leader, made a decided hit.
Chin Chin" mixes up Arabian
Nights tales with modern antique
shops, where new antiques are sold
new American millionaires." The ia
nous wishing lamp Of Alladin is the
controlling element in the plot. The
play is set in China in the first act,
and the settings and costumings are
especially picturesque in that part Of
the production.

If Won will get it fixed in your
mind that Rheumatism is a blood
disease and cannot be cured by To-
cal treatment, you will then by
proper treatment begin to get the
permanent relief you have been
seeking for SO many years.
In this article we want to ex-
plain to you the cause OF this most
painful Of all diseases, also offer
naed on reason
and long years of experience,
which will enable you to secure the
right treatment if you are afflicted
with any of the various forms OF
Rheumatism.
Rheumatism is a specific blood
fermentation, a souring of the cir
eulation from an excess of uric
acid aceumulating in the blood
stream. This uratic impurity
comes usually as a result of consti-
patton, weak kidneys, indigestion
and stomach disturbances. These
systemic irregularities may not be
of marked severity or of long du-
ration, but each has a direct effect
on the eliminative members of the
body, which prevents the proper
removal of the waste products.
This refuse remains in the stom-
ach and bowels, and souring forms
uric acid, which the blood quickly
absorbes.
Rheumatism is usually manifest
ed in the joints and muscles. II
is here its sharpest twinges of pain
are felt, and stiffening of liga-
ments and tendons first commence.
The pain Of Rheumatism is caused
by the contact of the sensory
nerves with the gritty, aerid for
nation which uric acid causes to
accumulate in the corpuscles of
the blood about the joints. The
stiffening of muscles and joints is
usually gradual. Constantly the
blood deposits the uric acid into

R|v|ES LAY
IDLE A WHILE
Failure to Make a Good Show
ing This Season Said to
be Reason
By SsectcI Correspondent.

SOUTH AMBOY, Feb. 12-The Riv-
ersides have decided to drop from the
limelight-at least for the time being.
This action has probably zen taken
as the result of their poor showing
which they have made on the court
here his season. All games have been
postponed indefinitely. In spite of the
fact that the team has had its regular
players, with the exception OF Jimmy
CANTON, Ii has failed to make Its pres
ence felt on the court as In previous
seasons, when it was recognized, not
only as n of the strongest aggreSa-
lions in this section, but also in the
state.
The first game booked by the Rivies
this season was with the 7. A. Giles
pie five, which was won by the locfsls:
This team came here without several
of their regular men, who were
among the best on that five.
The second game was with the
Michelin quintet from Midtown, who
took the Rivies into camp by an over
whelming count, as did the Knights
OF st. Peters Wanderers from New
Brunswick, but they brought here
only IN inexperienced five, which were
easily defeated. The Rivies put up
their best game when they won from
the Recreation Five OF Piainneid'
but hte crowd was well III dis
gusted last Friday night. when the
Sterlings from SoLsa River came
here and handed the Rivies a drub-
bling and won by a ten margin lead.
Practice has been put a side ISSUE
and without the practice the local nve
could not expect to win games, as
they did the asst cas- when they
practiced once or twice a week. The
result was later to be seen in the
fact that they were challenging and
defeating the best fives in the state,
and some other teams in New York
1t is expected that if Harold
Hoffman, the former manager, returns
from France soon enough, that he Will
take the Rivies in hand and mould
a winning basketball team out of
them, and book games that Will b
drawing cards for the people i'll this
vicinity.
The illness OF James Canton has
also been a backset to the favorites,
and although the team has been boil
stored up in some manner in eacn
game. vet the excellent floor work and
experience of CANTON has been widely
missed.
However, the public are anxiously
awaiting for time to come when the
Rivies will be Rivies mad will know
of no team that can capture a game
without some hard playing. The st.
Mary's hall management by agree
has consented to throw open
their court again to h Rivies
when they are In form again and
when they book drawing games.
