tuned, nicely danced, sung well and
altogether what the boys call a
8 knockout"
There is considerable of story
including a rough house fight be-
tween the wealthy young man who
gets the girl and the Bowery tough
who doesn't. There is also an at,
tempt to steal the jewels, interrupt
ed by the timely arrival of Rose
Marie, the little dressmaker's help
er.
The company that will appear
here is the one and only company
playing this world-famous musica
comedy, and is one of the bigges'
aggregations ever seen outside OF
New York, so that theater-goers OF
this city and the surrounding town;
are to be congratulated for rare
musical treat that awaits them witt
the arrival of "Good Morning
Dearie."

of the saw dust ring, having played
for many years with some of the
biggest shows in the country.
Jene DeKoe, Americas most
noted clown assisted by corps OF
other funny fellows kept things in
an uproar. Gene and Rittley set the
audience agog with amazement with
their topping table act, which was
a good one. A discordant clown

CIRCUS PLEASES
Indoor Circus at Rylander Real
Novelty With Many Amuse-
ment Features of Ring

Last night at the Rylander a
good crowd considering weather
conditions when the curtains rose on
buttons Society Circus. In fact, it
is believed that many of the specta-
tors were highly surprised at the
performance, as every act was high
class and a feature in itself, with
plenty of speed and action and fun.
The show went big, if volume OF
applause means anything.
Fifteen complete circus acts, with
35 professional performers direct
ed by James Dutton, of circus
fame, made up the bill of amHse-
ment. The Circus will be repeated
at matinee this afternoon and
again tonight at 8:15.
By using the imagination in a
very slight degree the audience last
night could well picture itself under
the big top on the show grounds.
But the roof of the Rylander is a
fine substitute for canvas, especial
" last night.
The spot light played on star per-
formers, the ring master carcked his
whip and a regular circus band
played all the while as the usual
circus acts, clowns, acrobats, horse

rag9antry one always sees under

cereals. Cook it with hot cereals. Try

We emerged from that. That WAS

New Method Of
Reducing Fat

A news item from abroad informs
us that the American method Of pro-
ducing slim, trim figure is meet
ing with astonishing success. This
system, which has made such a Won
derful impression over there, must be
the Marmola Prescription Tablet
method of reducing fat. 1t is safe
to say that we have nothing better
for this purpose in this country.
Anything that will reduce the excess
flesh steadily and easily without in
jury to the stomach. the causing of
wrinkles, the help Of exercising or
dieting. or interference with ones
meals is mighty important and
useful addition to civilizations ne
cessities. Just such a catalogue of
good results follow the use of these
pleasant. harmless and economical
little fat reducers. We say econo-
mical, because Marmola Prescription
Tablets (made in accordance with
the famous Marmola Prescription
can be obtained of any druggist the
world over or from the Marmola Com
pany, 1872 Woodward Ave-, Detroit,
Mich, for one dollar box which is
a decidedly economical price, con-
sidering the number Of tablets each
box contains. They are harmless.
