THE COMING OF MACBETH.
Lovers of the highest ideals
in dramatic art are continually
finding fault with the too fre
quent appearance not only here
but in all the cities of silly far
cical plays, cheap sensationalism
and the other immaterial feat
ures of current theatrical pro
ductions and are always clamor
ing for the works of Shakespeare
and the other great masters of
literature.
It is a pleasure to announce in;
this connection the early appear- j
ance here of the eminent trage-1
dian John Griffith and his splen
did company of the legiti
mate artists in Shakespeare’s
immortal tragedy,” Macbeth,”
with brilliant fire-proofed scenic
equipment, electrical effects,
chemical illusions and all the de
tails needful to insure an abso
lutely perfect performance of
this the greatest of the great
master’s plays. Everywhere
that Mr. lirimth has appeared i
the local press has teemed with ;
praise of his magnificent per
formance, and it will be a real
pleasure to welcome him to this
city. The engagement is an
nounced for Saturday evening,
Feb. 25, and promises to be the
one great big event of the sea
son.

SHERLOCK HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Sto
ries in the Kansas City Star.
Conan Doyle’s detective sto
, ries, with the marvelous Sher
lock Holmes as their hero, have
achieved the greatest success of
recent years. Appreciating this
I fact, the publisher of Collier’s
| Weekly, New York, induced Mr.
Doyle to write a final’ series of
the great detective’s adventures.
Repeated refusals were followed
by increased inducements, and
finally Mr. Doyle agreed to write
thirteen stories for $45,000, or
about 60 cents a word. The en
tire correspondence was by ca
ble.
The amount paid by Collier’s is
the largest ever paid for such
work and does not include the
right to publish the stories in
book form. By special arrange
ment with Collier’s these famous
stories are being printed in the
Kansas City Star, one story each
week, beginning in the daily
edition of Saturday, February 11,
and in the weekly Wednesday,
February 15.
None of the present popular
features of the Star will be cut
down or omitted to make room
for this remarkable set of stories.
Practically the contents of a $1.50
book will be added to the con
tents of the Star in three months
without any increase of the sub
scription price, 10 cents a week
for the daily Star, (morning,
evening and Sunday, 13 complete
papers a week) and 25 cents a
year for the weekly Star.

Life a
Burden
There are times when life
seems a burden—when you are
tired, worn-out, have dull pains
in the head and a continual
feeling of uneasiness. You
have no appetite, and your di
gestion is poor; your sleep
broken, and you get no rest.
Little annoyances seem great
mountains of trouble, and you
are blue, melancholy and given
over to gloomy forebodings.
This means low vitality—ex
hausted brain nerves.
For this condition Dr. Miles’
Restorative Nervine is a spe
cific ; it is a food for the nerves.
It builds up the nervous sys
tem, and restores lost energy.
Try it to-day and see if your
sleep is not sound and refresh
ing, and the morrow brighter
and more hopeful.
“I am glad to announce that I have
recovered my health, as far as my
advanced age will permit, as I am 82
years old. My case was very had;
l my nerves were all shattered. I suf
fered much pain and coldness; was so
weak and felt so sad and lonely and
heart-broken. When 1 commenced
taking Dr. Miles’ Remedies I was com
pletely prostrated. I have taken the I
Restorative Nervine. Heart Cure and
Nerve and Liver Pills, and they cured
me.” MRS. E. C. BAWLBY,
Waterloo, Ind.
Dr. Miles’ Nervine Is sold by your
druggist, who will guarantee that the
first bottle will benefit. If it fails, he
j will refund your money.
