"ADAM AND EVA"
A ROLLICKING
COMEDY
{ Reviewed by ID. L. 81

"Adam and Eva, the rollicking
romance of hilarity, was presented
last evening at the Park Theatre by
a first class company that can easily
be compared with the original COM
pany, which proved such a decided
success on Broadway for two seasons.
The play is typicaIIy American in wit
and humor and every line creates
laugh.
The following cast all perfectly
suited to their respective parts, are
worthy of much commentator:
James King, a rich man, Charles
Horn, Corintha, his parlor maid, ,Ro-
mana Weaver; Clinton Dewitt, his
son-in-law. Frank T. Knight; Julie
Dewitt, his eldest daughter, Rose
mary Hilton; Eva King, his younger
daughter, Lois Bolton; Aunt Abby
Booker, his daughter-in-law, Adylyn
Wesley; DR.. Jack Delamater, his
neighbor, Paul Bell; Uncle Horace
Pilgrim, his cousin, Joseph Prosser;
Adam Smith, his business manager,
Coates Gwyne; Lord Andrew Gordon,
his would-be son-in-law, Charles E.
Bird.
Honors in the cast fell to Charles
Horn, who displayed clever acting in
his difficult role an irate father
who is over-run by his family: Coates
Gwynne made a handsome adam" ,
on who capably portrayed the part
of eva, will be remembered as
starring last season in t@Twin Beds"

Did The Children
Get As Much From
Their Vacation As
TheyShOuldHaUe?

Sometimes the re-opening of school
finds many children below normal
weight, with less strength than they
should have, and really unable to
stand the strain imposed by study.
This is the time when Father
Johns Medicine will prove most eff
fective for them. The actual food
elements which it contains are exact
ly what nature has provided to re-
build health and strength. This re-
building food is so skillfully prepared
by the scientific process of compound
ing the prescription for Father Johns
Medicine that it is quickly and easily
taken up by weakened system and
the results are promptly evident in
the increased weight and steadily
gaining strength which the child
shows under the treatment which
Father Johns Medicine affords.
For more than sixty years Father
Johns Medicine has been successfully
used in thousands of homes as a
standard medicine for all the family.
