The wonderful characters of the fiction story of the same name will be given the striking personality and life which the Lyceum Players are so capable of ‘infusing into them and great week is in store for the goers. “David Harum” is a ing, wholesome comedy with a breezy atmosphere of good humor and happ laughter, and has won its' place a classic among the rural produc- tions of the American stage.. Wil- liam H. Crane took Edward Noyes Westcott’s story and gave it the life of stage characters and on the stage it gained, rather than lost by drama- tization. Those who liked the story will enjoy the play better. ‘“‘David Harum,” the character from whom the title is obtained, is a typical rural horse trader and the incidents record- ed of him are said to have been ac- tual happenings, The quaint old “David” stirs up a fine heart interest besides creating roars of laughter. There are other incidental characters which go to make up a fine play. “Forty-five Minutes From Broad. way” has taken New Britain by storm and the metropolitan presentations have been largely patronized. There are peaple, and they are no small number, who regard the performances of the delightful musical comecy drama as good as road productions they witnessed and some of the char- acters as portrayed by the Players are regarded as better than by the orig- inals. Another matinee perform- ance will be given Saturday after- noon. Theater parties are most popular. Sunday offers the powerful picture, “Stronghear! “ST.

Next week the Players will be seen in the dramatization of “St. Elmo,” one of the most popular novels ever written. St. Elmo was written as a novel, by Augusta J. Evans.

Cut large oranges in halves and carefully remove the pulp. Cut the edges to stimulate a tulip and fill the skells with the chestnut cream. Cut the orange pulp, after removing all traces of the bitter white pith, into very thin slices, Arrange these on top of the chestnut cream and decorate the orange slices with Marrons glace. Drop a spoonful of whipped cream on the centre of each and sprinkle with ristachios that have been chopped very fine. Orange Baskets with Jelly Cubes. Select firm, large oranges and, standing from blossom end up, cut them tc form baskets. Use a sharp knife and make an incision not quite reaching the centre, which piece is left intact for a handle.

Thou- sands of tons of lava and fire belci- ing from Mt. Etna, gigantic the fear crazed people flee down the narrow paths, seeking safety.

Hundreds are caught beneath the ruins and perish. No character in the story creates such profound interest and awe -as this ponderous Maciste, the, Giant, who towering over all in helgh‘ while the almost superhuman strength he displays bring forth gasps of admira- tion. Pursued by a mob of fanatic Carthaginians he turns on them and grasping the first lifts him high then | hurls him over a wall; the second is pitched into a cauldron of boiling oil.
