A peculiar and most interesting novelty in the form of Mantell’s Mys- terious Automatons will be presented at this theatre tonight. This act has traveled over all the foreign countries and also has appeared in the leading cities of the United States. Special scenery and electrical setting transform the stage into a regular minature theatre and figures of people in various actions are introduced. Mechanical effects follow in such apid succession that the audience is fairly bewildered at this laughable and wonderful pantomime.

Minneapolis, Dec. 9.—Minneapolis. ministers are against the use of the high- school buildings, first, last and all the time for modern dances. At a meeting Saturday twenty-five pastors. voiced their sentiments and appointed a committee of four to draft resolutions denouncing the ac- tion of the board of education in al- lowing the school buildings to be used for dances. At all ministerial meetings today resolutions will be adopted. The meeting Saturday was behind closed doors. Rev. C. K. Solberg, of the Bethlehem Norwegian church, de- clared all Norwegian churches were opposed to dancing in the schools. STEER BRINGS $815. Chicago, Dec. 9. — Glencarnack Victor, named the world’s champion steer at the International Live Stock exposition,- was sold Saturday to a Chicago department store for $815, or fifty cents a pound, the amimal’s weight being 1,630 pounds. The steer was owned by J. D. McGregor of Brandon, Man. The champion sweepstakes lot of steers will be shipped alive to New York, having been purchased for fourteen cents a pound. They aver- aged 1,189 pounds. Call on 804 America avenue, or phone 752 for rag carpet weaving. Also ingrain and brussels carpets made into rugs.—Adv. Curlosity Without Enthusiasm. When Frank P. Morse was manag- ing the publicity work for the Wom- en’s Titanic memorial last summer he visited New York for the purpose of getting newspaper editors to run edi- torials praising the undertaking. ‘Whienever Morse gets on a job of this gort he has a double-barreled fit of ill. ness, the two ailments which try to destroy him being enthusiasm and loquacity. He blew into the office of one editor and shoved out this broad- side: “Now, look here, colonel, this is a great and noble proposition. We want you to run an editorial saying that it should be crowned with success. In brief, the women of this country are asked to contribute half a million dol- lars to build a great memorial arch to the heroic men who died on the Ti- tanic to save the women and children. They died noble deaths. This is & noble thing. Will you help us?” £ The editor, who was rather on in years and fond of smoking cigars, blew out a puff of smoke, looked at Morse in a bored manner, and asked: “Where did you say these fellows dled?” ‘Whereupon Mr. Morse, talking to himself in a hurrled manner and cur- sing the promptness with which Amer- fcans forget herolsm and the time to pay money, flung his quivering form into a Pullman car and made his es- cape from the city.—The Popular Mag- azine. Lands of Fire. 1t is rather singular that both of the “lands of fire” are near the cold extremities of the globe—Iceland, far to the northward,~and Tierra del Fuego, remotely south. Iceland, to the eye, seems at first glance to be better named by the cold appellation. Its glacial flelds are not only numer- ous, but in some cases these and the connected snow stretches are hun- dreds of square miles in extent. But only a little travel into the interior, say to the site of the ancient Icelandic Parllament at Thingvallir, discloses miles upon miles of such- decola- tion as is possible only in a “land of fire.” It is a very island of volcanoes, and, while they have been exceeding- 1y well behaved for a hundred years or 8o, the great hot springs in the neighborhood of Reykjavik, the capi- tal, indicate that the subterranean heat, it ps ve, is still very much alive. Huge glaciers also mark the “cold land of fire” at the other end of the earth. Thus each of the two parts of the universe {is properly named, whether the name be warm or cold. Compliments. John Drew, the eminent actor, at the age of 59 looks no more than 85. Complimented on this fact, Mr. Drew sald: 1 try to keep my hair on and my stomach off—that is the true seeret of perennial youth.” . Then he told one of his famous sto- ries illustrative of his horror of cor pulence. P “A fat man,” he sald, “could not help laughing one day at the ludicrous appearance of & very bow-legged chap —one: of those arch-looking chaps, you know. “Though a total stranger to him, the fat man slapped the bow-legged chap on the back and said: “‘By jingo, brother, you look as if you'd been riding a barrel.’ “The bow-leggad man smiled and poked his forefinger deep into the fat man’s soft, loose stomach. “‘And you look as it you'd been swallowing one,’ he sald.” Sale on all dl;fllu at the Berman, Emporium.—Adv. NEVER WITH RED HAIR HISTORY RECORDS NO GREAT GENIUS THUS ADORNED. Wen of Eminence Have Been, but Not Those of Genuine and Deathless Fame—As to Beards and Ringlet: History shows that no great genius ever had red halr. Alone among the poets of the world was Swinburne, whose hair was distinctly reddish, and among the great reformers only John Bunyan's hair was really red. The simon-pure carrotty head, however, ap- pears nowhere linked to world fame. The flaxen-haired blonde or. the man whose hair when an adult is a true yellow also remains marked apart as being unlikely to possess genius. Bhould one such be, his only com- panion will be Thackeray, whose hair Is described as yellow. Mr. Charles Kassel has reviewed the blographies of ‘most of the eminent people of the world’s histories and tabulated his re- sults 8o far as the color of the hair is concerned. Dark brown to black is the prevail- Ing hue on the heads of great men. A list of fitty names has been compiled In which the color of the hair is given by biographers, and 90 per cent. are dark brown or black. There is not, strange to say, & single mention of premature grayness, nor a single case of that ashen brown hair known as “singed” or “mouse color.” The structure of the hair—whether ptraight or curly—is given in twenty- six of Mr. Kassel's list of geniuses, end of these all but four possessed curly or wavy hair. It is extremely notable that of the remaining. four, | Napoleon and Andrew Jackson were the two remarkable for “wiry hair,” and that James.Russell Lowell and Greig were those having lank straight hair. The poet’s “ringlets” and the musician’s shock of hair are by this list seen not to be mere accidents, but in some strange way are co-ordi- nated to their powers and the general popular instinet 18 not at fault. The color of beards also arouses many points of interest. All the an- cient tapestries show Cain and Judas Iscariot with yellow or red beards, and Pontius Pilate in anclent art al- ways was given a beard. (Being a Ro- man of good family, he probably had no beard, but those details did not trouble the old masters.) A reddish beard, however, does not carry the sig- nificance that goes with red hair, for a large number of eminent men with dark brown hair have had reddish beards. Sometimes the eyelashes have been ruddy, Savonarola, who had al- most black hair, having startlingly red eyebrows and eyelashes. But, as a general rule here also, & silky brown beard when accompanied by fine cur ling dark-brown hair, is the most usual characteristic shown in the biographies of those men whose names have been handed down to fame.—New York World.

I0WA MAN STUCK WITH PITCHFORK A farmer living in the Northern part oi Iowa stuck himself in the leg with a ,._chfork. The wound would not heal and for two years he had a running sore. He tried all the com- mon salves and liniments and some- times the sore would heal, but it al- ways broke open again. Finally he healed it up to stay healed with Allen’s Ulcerine Salve. Thiy salve is one of the oldest rem- edies in America and since 1869 it has been known as the only salve powerful enough to cure chronic ul- cers and old sores of long standing. Allen’s Ulcerlne Salve acts by drawing out the poisons and healing the sore from the bottom up. It is so powerful that it heals new cuts and sores in one-third the time that com- mon salves and liniments take. And it heals burns and scalds without a scar.
