Prompt Assistance Needed
to Regain Your Lost
Strength.

If you have been fortunate
enough to survive an attack of
this dangerous disease, which
has been so severe in all parts
Of the country, you know the
damaging effects which it
leaves. Your pain-racked body
has been through one of the
most trying ordeals Of your
life, and even if you have won
over the millions Of disease
germs that threatened your
life, the effects Of the attack
are still with you.
Your strength is about all
gone, and your vitality is at a
low ebb. Experience has proven
that no disease leaves the sys-
tenn in a more rundown, de-
bilitated and depleted condi-
ton. There is a soreness
throughout the body, a re-
minder Of the torturing pains
that you suffered; the nerves
'eiS GIL uiioIl ullS dilu yOuI
sense Of weakness almost Dor
ders upon complete helpless
ness.
The system is "all shot to
pieces" resembling very much
war-strickcn land that has
been devastated by ruthless
enemy. AS soon as you are
able to be up and about, you
realize the important repair
that the system needs to re-
store your former robust vigor.
Nature is the great healer,
and when all hindering obsta-
Giles are removed, nature does
her work well. But the pro-
cess is slow, and assistance is
needed, if you wish to lose no
time in being fully restored.
The rebuilding of wasted tissue
and restoration Of lost strength
must come through the blood.

in years and rivaled the heartiest OF
those given even to the great Caruso.
And IL was all deserved. for Mr..
Harrold's singing and Interpretation of
the part Of Rodolfo has not been sur
passed in this city in years. His voice
is clear. high, young and fresh, besides
possessing an appealing quality which
is especially desirable for the part as
signed to him last evening. He has
temperament and is fairly good actor,
lacking only in the things which ex
,,eriencc will bring.
iIarro'd did the best work of the eve
ming in the duet mi chiamano Mimi
and the following 20 soave fanciulla, ,"
when he wrought the audience up to
the highest pitch Of enthusiasm that
any singer has evoked for long time.
the performance having to be stopped
for at least three or four minutes while
the auditors frantically expressed their
approval of the magnificent piece OF
dramatic singing they had just heard.
But while Mr.. Harold carried of the
chief honors, the other members OF the
cast did as fine work in the limits OF
the parts assigned to them. Nine.
Frances Aida was Mimi and she sang
and acted in the restrainedlv artistic
way that che always exhibits. The
close Of her, duet with Marcello in the
third act was an exquisite piece Of work
both vocally and sentimentally. and tht
duets with Rodo'fo In the first ani
closing acts were also splendid.
Mr.. Scotti was Marcello and again
as he did last week. he demonstrated
that he is still one of the most valuabl,
members OF the Metropolitan.
The other important member of tht
cast was Miss Margaret Romaine. who
made her Philadelphia debut as the
temperamental Musctta. Miss Romano
has a good voice but has not the finish
in her manner Of singing that more ex
perience will bring. She has q delight
full stage presence and fitted admirabl,
both the part and the stage picture.
