"Sparks the Rounder" is not a drama, vaudeville or burlesque show. It is a musical farce comedy. It may be well to explain why we call it a musical farce comedy. There are so many peo­ ple who think that the words musical comedy applies to music, comedy and girls, that is to say a chorus of girls, we use farce in the middle which is proper as there is no chorus with "Sparks the Rounder." We have nothing but artists that can sing, dance or produce comedy. A drama is, as a rule, a reproduction of everyday life. A vaudeville show is just a matter of so many people follow­ ing each other on the stage. This show has a story to it with lots of comedy, singing and dancing that is not out of place. Mr. Heider and his son, Freder­ ick, have staged ' 'Sparks the Ropnder" in ajuanner that pleases everyone. At the Central opera house, Sunday even­ ing, September 25 The Lash of a Fiend would hare been about as welcome to A. Cooper of Oswego, N. Y., as a mer­ ciless lung racking cough that defied ail remedies for years. "It was moat troublesome at night," he writes, "noth­ ing helped me till I used Dr. Kisg's New Discovery, which cured me com­ pletely. I never cough at night now." Millions know its matchless merit for stubborn colds, obstinate coughs, sore lungs, la grippe, asthma, hemorrhage, croup, whooping congh or hay fever. It relieves qnickly and never fails to satisfy. A trial convinces. 50c, $1.00. Trial bottle free. It's positively guar­ anteed by N. H. Petesch and F. Mas- quelet. Wedding Dance at Jolinsbnrgh. A double wedding dance will take place at Stephen H.
