A GOOD PAIR OF SCISSORS. THEATRE NOTES, 4 . iThurston, big bar nntarhig devotion to bar art, won for herself tn th* hearts of th e theatre going publie throughout the entire coun­ try apositiou of admiration seldom equaled. .H er acting m any vole she may essay, is a triumph of techr nique in the artistic sense. She is always true to nature; but never conventional. In the role of Hester Temple which she has chosen to essay for her present tour, will be found an heiress who has been trained to hold her own In any drawingroom. A young girl, who by temperament, admiration and character, compels attention and respect y e t who dominates, by righ t of feminine ctiarm, refinement and brain, augmented by a Warm, true heart. I t is a ligh t comedy role, and having been especially written for Miss Thurston, gives her a splendid opportunity of dis­ playing her artistic ability in a manner th a t is decidedly different from anything she has ever present­ ed. Mies Thurston is to appear a t th s Fairbanks Theatre, Tuesday, March 2Srd. The Fairbanks Theatre will offer “Hraustark” , the splendid drama- matin drama on Saturday, March f? This piece is a dramatization Of <l#o. B. McOutcheon’s popular story of the same name. When originally brought out th s story a t ­ tained to a wider circulation than any popular novel of the day. In its romatlc quality i t resembles the “ Prisoner "»fHonda.” The hero is h young American, who a t the time of a railway accident, becomes ac* qaainted with a prlncesK of a small foreign kingdom. He follows her to her home and there becomes en­ meshed i.l the Htate Revolution He lends assistance to ids princess whom he ultimstely marries. The story is an exceedingly stirring on* and as a drama i t is one of the most captivating pieces on the stage. I t will be given a t popular price* and as it Is enacted by one of the most capable companies which has y e t appeared i* ib is drama, the per­ formance 1* expected to be a thoroughly sattefying and enjoyable one. I t will unquestionably prove on* of the meet pleasing pieces of the season, \ \ FOR SALE.

Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken infornaiiy, acting directly up, on tbe blood and lnucfiussurractis of system thereby destroying Use foundation of tbe disease, and giving tbe patient strength by bnlldingupthe constitution and assisting nature in doing it«work, The proprietors haveso much faith in its curative powers, that they utter oneHundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure, Send for list o testimonials -count** theft crity birireeWfrffB*of tbe gentleman teecthevs and a town pu­ pil, The pupil was a hukky fellow and when tbe teacher wtrnf to cor­ rect hmwforeozneJiapropev eonduct th e twh clinched knd both went to the floor with th e pupil victor and the teacher bad a tom o r otherwise soiled trousers to show for the re­ sult; of ids effort, A few days la ter title same teacher and pupil were scheduled tor another hour, but the teacher won *he prize.
