CAREY WANTS TO
TELL EVERYBODY
Would Like TO Step Everyone He
Meets On the Street to Tell
About Tanlac.

II am so we'll and strong in every
S~Eay since ] commenced taking
Tanlac that I can do more hard
work in a day that l ever could in
my life before" said Ed Carey. =
we'll known employe of the Foy
hotel. and who lives 513 North
Adams street Peoria. H., while
talking to TanlaC representative
the other day
You know continued Mr.
Carey. Il didn't think it was pos
sible for any medicine on earth To-
do as much for a man as Tanlac
has done for me When | got my
first bottle of this medicine I had
been suffering from rheumatism
Tor almost twenty-five long years,
and had never been able to find a
medicine or treatment that would
40 me any good at all. The joints
in my legs would set so sore and
swollen at times that I just had to
MAY off my feet for days at time.
- arms were in the same conGi-
ton. and most of the time ! was
hardly able to raise a cup of coffee
or glass of water to my mouth on
account Of the pain in the joints
Of my arm. My kidneys were in
had condition. too, and | suffered
something awful with pains across
the small of my back. In fact. the
muscles and leaders in my back
were so sore and stiff that when I
stopped over ! C Ould hardly
straighten up again. ] finally got
n such bad shape that I was hard
ly able to attend to my work, and
could just feel myself going down
hill more and more every day.
That was the condition / was in
when TanIac was recommended TO
me. ! really didn't have much faith
in the medicine. but thought
would make one more effort to gCt
relief from my suffering, SO l
bought bottle and began taking
it, Well sir. | commenced to i1l-
prove right away and l just kept
on taking Tanlac until now l am
IS free from rheumatism as any
man on earth. and I never have a
sign of these awful pains in the
small Of my back Why. l have &C
tually gained SO pounds. and arn
50 we'll and strong that I don't feel
like I have ever been sick a day
in my life | sleep like a log every
night now. and that is something
haven't been able to do for many
years. My entire system has been
greatly built up and I feel just fine
all the time. In fact. Tanlac has
overcome my troubles completely,
and I never enjoyed better health
!lEvsry way than l do now. l am
~ strong for this wonderful medi-
cine. and am so happy over what
il has done for me that l just want
to stop everybody I meet >on the
street and tell them about it, and
as long as ] live I will be a real
booster for TanIaC."

WORLD FAMOUS
LEOPARD TRAINER
At LYRIC THEATRE
Splendid Programme of
Keith Vaudeville, With
Feature Picture at
the Matinees

A very charming young lady by the
name of Olga Celester and her wild
leopards will headline the Lyric pro-
gramme for the first half of this week
and should arouse overwhelming con-
sternation by her complete subjugation
of these treacherous jungle beasts. She
carries four full grown animals with
her which are trained to do tricks that
have never before been witnessed in Bir-
mingham. This act should not only be
attractive to the children, but to the
grownups as well.
Provost and Goulet in a Vaudeville
Melange" which means high class mix
ture of literary miscellany. This team
have dove-tailed an assortment of the
act and will prove one of the laughing
acts on this programme.
Assuming the character of a hod- car
rier, Tom Mahoney delivers bright and
iaughable monologue.
Bayonne Whipple and Walter Houston
will be remembered by their former Of
fering, "Spovks," which for years never
grew old. But realizing that changes
must be made they have produced new
one which they term "Shoes." To de-
cribe Shoes would be rather difficult
and in doing this it would rob the act of
a very good surprise which this team
have worked up to perfection. Sufficient
it is. to say that the act affords real
entertainment and it's delightfully."- por-
trayed by these two very capable artists.
Miss Laurel Lee, billed as "The Chum-
my Chatterer,' is thoroughly entertain
ing. She has a line of songs and dia-
iogue written especially for her and she
puts them over in grand style.
The picture for the matinees will be
Miss Bessie Barriscale, who is one of
the most popular movie actresses of to-
day. She will appear in special fea-
ture called Tangled Threads" which
depicts the character of so-called
Jazzing Husband Plenty of pathos,
thrills and heart throbs. Pictures at the
night performances will be the Gaumont

Their has drawn the character of this
plain old British grenadier of the
trenches with the sure touch of genius,
making him human and likable and Brit
ish to the core. There are no false
touches here. no playing to the gallery.
Bairnsfather has given us musketeer
of modern warfare without attempting
to guild him over with false sentiment.
We see him Just as he is, without one
plea and it is just because he is so
human that audiences like him. They
regard him as an old FRIEND They
feel that they know him.
II studied the part of Old Bill until
felt that I knew him as well as If
he had been my own brother. And the
more / studied the part, the more L
realized that Bill would be Disguised if
portrayed him with any highfalutin
tricks. He is so sincere, so real, SO naive
that / knew he wouldn't stand for any
nonsense. So I determined to be Old
Bill when / stepped into his shoes. l
was bringing a famous cartoon to life
and he must be as real as Galatea when
the breath of life animated her.
"How would Bill himself like it if
did anything out Of character" I would
ask myself whenever 1 went on the stage
in his trench outfit. And, by not trying
to act at all, 1 succeeded in being as
nearly like Old Bill as possible And
Old Bill has never once reproached me.
My conscience is clear. 1 feel that l
have satisfied Old Bill and 1 know that
/ have satisfied Captain Bairnsfather,
for he wrote me that my impersonation
was the most satisfactory Of any that
he had yet SEEN"

ure to be cherished in the memory locket
Of every one who is thrilled and moved
by its blended humor and pathos. Any
favorite book character is more vivid
and understandable when visuaiized upon
the stage and endowed with the warmth
of fascinating personality and the
beauty of the human, voice.
The public is keenly alive to that which
is new and vital in the theater and is
eager for plays that convey the sweet
and beautiful spirit that has made the
'Pollyanna'' fiction so tremendously
popular. The comedy, judging from the
many columns of praise iavished upon
it by reviewers throughout the country,
is an even greater delight than the glad
stories which inspired it.
1t spreads good cheer and joyous spirit
broadcast, and is SO full of novel and
fascinating surprises that the telling of
its story would be unfair to those pa
irons of the theater who may be unfa-
miliar with Mrs. Porter's books 1t is
an uncommonly good company that will
present "Pollyanna'' here.

OPERA PRICES ARE
HIGH IN GERMANY

Berlin, October 1S.-Prices for the
atre and opera seats are soaring to the
skies in Germany 1t has just been
to charge 50 marks for an orchestra
seat and 100 marks for a box seat at
the first performance OF Pfitzner's
'Palestrina," which is soon to be given.
Before the war there was much criti-
cism because 80 marks was the charge
for seat at the opera when Caruso
sang.
When Frau FRITZ Massary's operetta,
''Sybill," was produced for the first
time the other night, spectators ad-
vanced the price of seats to 1870 to $50
marks.
The audience included 'f1ficit trad
ers' whose wives and daughters gilt
tered with diamonds.

DeWolf Hopper, who has made the hit
of his career as Old Bill in the comedy

any stage tricks in playing a part. He
thinks that absolute sincerity and SIM

heart of the public. And the success of
his Old Bill proves that he is right.
Never has more naive or more unthe-
