AN’S PILLS. THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1905 BRINGS CREATOR OF BUSTER BROWN HIM TO TOWN. Shows Him to Pleased Audience | W | CHARACTERISTI! OF HIS HIGHLY TLLUSTRATING WING BY THE FAMOUS ARTIST WHO DELIVERED ONE NTERTAINING LECTURES LAST VmHT IN LYRIC HALL, HIS STORIES IN HIS OWN CLEVER W | Buster Brown and Tige came across the bay yesterday. Pleased? They were tickled to death. “My! look &t the gulls, Tige; we haven't seen gulls since we left New York; but, oh, Tige, doesn't this town take the cake? Look at this bay wonder they're proud of this place Buster had just gasped out the last word when they heard a band playing, and going to the other side of the ferry boat, they saw the C Chicago in here, : said Tige. “The ought to be ashamed to put where the Oregon was bul “No, no, Tige; you're wrong,” broke in Buster. “The Chicago came in here to show them how proud they ought to be. Besides, Tige, we are all Americans; why should any American try to vie with any | other when we are all doing our best, that's the best there is?” ood,” =aid Tige, “you are there with e argument, aé usual, Buster.” “Why not?” sald Buster. “Am I not an American boy—and, say, Tige, if this San ncisco isn't enough to make me proud of my country, my name isn’t Bus- ter Brown.” In a2 window on the north side of the Francis sat Tige and Buster all yes- afternoon resting after a long g the view and discours- the dignity of Nob Hill rd Outcault, whose creative fancy ught Buster, his sweetheart, Mary Jane, and Tige into the world to gladden the real little children throughout the country, told all about the advent of Buster and the other two at Lyric Hall last night to an audience of big and small terda » | people that laughed and applauded with great frequency end went away filled with delight. “When I first saw Tige,” said Mr. Out- cault—and he said it with such retrospect- e sincerity that évery little one present became convinced that Tige had really existed and grown from a funny baby dog to the comedian that helped Buster carry out his pranks—'he was a Vvery serfous-appearing little dog, believing then that the world was serious, and he lovked like this,” and the picture of a solemn-visaged doggy went on the can- vas, making young and old alike snicker. Then came a picture of red-cheeked v Jane, with her engaging grin, and t a succession of pictures of Buster, g him as a very little fellow, “‘as artist first knew him,” and as the mischief maker that the American the arch public is so familiar with. The children | all grew to belleve that Buster, Mary icago lying there | | Direct Road to the Northern Jane and Tige exist somewhere in the | flesh, ar it is not certain that their creator has not come to look upon them as real beings. Mr. Outcault is a clever story teller, and did as well in that line as many a star in vaudeville. His story of his own struggles and how he studied the town characters,of his native burg, from whom he drew much inspiration, greatly amused his hearers. The famous cartoonist also depicts his “Yellow Kid.” away to the audience. He will appear | again to-morrow night and Friday night, SHAKE [T OFF. Rid Yourself of Unnecessary | Burdens.

The plaintiff established her contention that at the time she married Murry she was suffering from mental trouble and had no idea of the import of the ceremony in which she was so important a prin- clipal. Murry made no defense. Two suits for maintenance were in- stituted yesterday. Mrs. C. E. Wager alleges that her husband, Edwin B, has not contributed toward her sup- port since 1902 and she asks that the court compel him to aid her. Addie E. Thompson asserts that her husband, | James, has treated her so cruelly and shown such contempt for her mother that she i{s unable to longer live with him.

This will give San Francisco a direct communication by rail to this northern part, and will open up a large section of the country which has hitherto been without suitable means of transportation. The construction of this new line means much to Eureka and to the small towns along the line, as well as to San Francisco. Although the announcement that this work is to be done has not been officlally made, yet it comes from sources close to the heads of both rallways, and its au- thenticity is not to be doubted. The agreement came after a long consultation between the officlals of the Santa Fe, which road is the owner of the San Fran- cisco and Northwestern Railway, and the chiefs of the California Northwestern, sald to be owned by the Southern Pacific. By the agreement the Santa Fe is re- lieved from the heavy task of building a line on the steep grades and through the rocky passes of the northern mountains. The two roads belleved that the prospec- tive traffic did not warrant duplicate lines and the compromise was therefore effect- ed. The Californfa Northwestern is saved the expense of building from Sherwood into Eureka. The distance to be con- structed is fifty-one miles. ——————— Sunset Club Holds Meeting. | The Sunset Public Utilities Club held its second meeting in Park View Hall, corner of Ninth avenue and H Several members of the club addressed the meeting and strongly edvocated the public owner- ship of street rallways, gas plants, waterworks and telephone systems.

Allen Jr. and P. J. Diez. Another mass meeting will be held next month vited. —_— CARPENTER'S RIBS BROKEN BY FALL. James Sheehan, a carpenter who lives at 7.

Robbing Yourself That is just what you are doing when you fail to get reg- ular and sufficient sleep. Your body requires this unconscious period for repair work; with- out it your nerve energy be- comes exhausted, and you are tired, worn-out, nervous, ex- citable; have headache, neu- ralgia, indigestion, poor appe- tite, or other ailments caused by a lack of nerve force. Make it your business to sleep. If you are restless, take Dr. Miles’ Nervine; it soothes and strengthens the nerves, and brings sweet, refreshing, life-giving sleep, and gives the organs power to work natur- ally. Try it to-day. “I had a severe spell of fever, which left me in & very wenk cm\dm\sn lnd very nervous.
