Wheu the curtain lises on the *
first act of "Meadow Brook Farm''
at the Thomas Opera house on
Monday, February 7, those who 1
have been fortunate enough to se* t
cure seats will experience a most r
pleasing effect. The scene is on a f
Xew Euglaud farm in the vicinity <
of Cathedral Hills, in the State of ^
New Hampshire. The smell of the c
new-mown hav, the singing of the I
birds, and the perfume from the
* W- !L 1 _
blooming roses, are an so uisceruioie \
as to cause one to forget for the j
time being that he is iu a theatre.
Si Holden and his wife, Jane, are j
two lovable characters, who will j
remind you of your father and j
mother or grandparents, as you re- (
member ihem. Incidentally, Sim j
Smith and Tim Slocum, the town (
Constable and Justice of the Peace, ,
aud Polly Bird, who was born tired,
and Billy Bates, the circus billposter,
will drive away all dull
care3 and cure the worst kind of a
case of the blues. 1
The company headed bv Lou i
Streeter are especially selected to fit \
the various characters. W F Manu a
has in "Meadow-Brook Farm" a 1
play that is bound to live long in i
the hearts of American people. 1
Sore Lungs and Raw Lungs. (
Most people know the feeling, and 1
the miserable state of health it indi- ^
cates. All people should know that
Foley's Honey and Tar, the greatest
throat and lung remedy, will quickly '
cure the soreness aud cough and re- ?
stcue a normal condition. Ask for
Foley's Honey and Tar. .
