It was written from the novel of the same name and the popular fiction lent itself admirably to stage adap- | tion. Those who are familiar wnh[‘ the story will find a new interest in | it through the play. The taking U(} the characters from the book and giv- i ing them life on the stage was done | for William H. Crane in such a clever manner that the play has been equally as popular as the book, which was read by millions. The incident of David’'s famous horse trade is part of the play. David, it will be recalled, guaranteed the deacon that the horse i would stand without hitching—and it did. The horse took the wrong time, however, selecting for the time of his demonstration the moment when a rain storm prevailed its hardest. This is an attraction well worth while and those who like a flne attraction will do well to make their arrangements early. The hit of the season is being scored in “Forty-Five Minutes From Broad- way,” now playing at the Lyceum. Ex_ cellent sittings are to be had for the performance tonight and others for the rest of the week. Do not be one of those who will be disappointed | by not seeing the players in this fine attraction. The five reel picture “Strongheart,”” will be shown Sunday night. SUPERIOR FEATURES ON KEENEY'S BILL | The Fields brothersand their com- pany of entertainers continue to give entire satisfaction with the burlesque on the popular opera, “The Geyser.” Their satire on this famous produc- tion is styled “The Geeser.” It is| rich in comedy, of a slapstick variety | to be sure, bnt nevertheless highly entertaining. It amuses the audience greatly and serves as one of the best vehicles the company has used since coming to this city. Both the Fields distinguish themselves in the roles which they are interpreting. Harry | Jackson, the Hebrew comedian, ac- quits himself with the usual credit, the Three Shaws have a specialty that pleases and the chorus renders valuable assistance. There seems to be no lessening of the popularity of the troupe and at every performance the members are liberally applauded. Braham has an act that contains many superior features. This “lone” entertainer is a character impersona- tor of unusual skill. He imperson- ates such notables as Washington, McKinley, the kaiser and also de- lineates characters made famous by the writings of Charles Dickens. The art is refined and wholesome and it gives entire satisfaction. Harry LeVall has an aerial acrobat- ic specialty that wins conslderable applause. He also does some fine posing. ‘ Jack Bornholt gives a motion pic- ture tarvesty that is novel and highly entertaining. It is entitled, ‘“Curse You, Jack Dalton.” Mr. Bornholt plays the leading role himself, the Keeneyscope furnishing the other characters in the piece. Russell .and King have an enter- taining specialty and it goes big every day. MISS SKIRVIN PLAYS EDNA IN “ST. ELMO” At Poli's theater, in Hartford. this week the Poli Players are giving ex- cellent presentations of ‘“Alias Jimmy Valentine.” There is a large vance sale of seats for the remaining performances. It is expected that the presentation of “St. ElImo” next week will prove one of the best of the pres- ent season. This play is the only authorized version of the play which is based upon Augusta J. Evans’ fa- mous book of the same title. Mrs. Evans zealously guarded the dramatic rights of the book for many vears. It was not until a few years before h(‘r% death that she finally commissioned | ‘Willard Holcomb, the Washington dra- matic critic, to rewrite her play and present it. “St. Elmo” has been a favorite novel for over two genera- tions. It centers about a young man ! who fights a duel at the very outset | then goes to Ilurope to live down his shame. He returns some years later and, through the efforts of a girl, is reclaimed and becomes a sterling character when his real traits are brought out. Mr. Hollingsworth will be seen in the name part and Miss Skirvin will have the delightful role of Edna, the girl. There will be two performances daily throughout the week.

They are the result of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these littlc olive-colored tablcts. These pleasant little tablcts do the good that calcmel docs but have no bad after ef- fects. They don’t injure theteeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Cal- omel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards’ Olive T'ablets take its place. Most headaches, “dullness” and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a | disordered liver.
