tion at the fortieth annual performance
yesterday afternoon at the Century

Chief among them was 1.-THE Sign of the

as "The Bat" and Bulldog Drummond'

stage.
Some one might be unkind enough to
remark that the performance was all
the better for that. But you did see
the actors after the sketch was over, for

Either, who was supposed to be the
producer, though his real function
seemed to be to think up explanations
of incidents that had just occurred,
leaving the audience in delighted fog.
He explained that William 3. Mack
had been chosen to fire the shots or the
darkened stage because past experience
had shown that nobody could discharge
revolver SO effectively as he, and

intended to delude the audience in
typical mystery fashion. really signified
her pleasure at being kissed by the
hero.
Two acts were given and the final cur.

gait.

Women and Medicine.

IN Europe, years ago, a woman named
Hildegarde wrote notable book on
medicinal plants. In those days the
men were too busy bothering about
dogmas of religion and medicine, and
the study of herbs was thought be-
meath their notice.
1t was the women, however, who
mostly conducted the hospitals and
cared for the sick, and thus they learned
much Of great value. They let the men
fight out the questions of theories.
