the Dalai Lama of Thibet, with 9 eara.

moved out of Pekinsr on his way Wi,
to Lhasa. He left it four years ago,

proiancu the capital of Buddhism.
Since then, with a laree and lorwMv

the Dalai Lama goes back to Lhasa
reduced to a status purely ecclesiasti
cal, pledged to communicate with
Peking only through the Chinese
Resident, but invested with a new
title, which has also a hint, that of

civilization rather than himself. Thus
ends the most picturesque episode of
the centurya combined exile, innket

Angela May, the contralto prima
donne, of the Imperial Opera Com
pany, who sang; herself into the
hearts of her hearers the onenimr
night; will give an operatic, comedy
act, with the assistance of J. Louis
MacEvoy: the lyric comedian also
recenly, of the Imperial Opera Co.
Miss May will be heard also in a new
song of Anna Held's and she will
wear some new eowns. that are esne-
cially interesting to the female por
tion of the audience. Mere man can
admire and say they are "Stunning,"
but he can't tell what they are, or how
they are. Mr. Simonton must have
smiled to himself, when he secured
Angela May for the ooenimr bill. a
his head-liner, and he did not let the
public into his confidence until the
very day of her appearance: Both
Miss May and Mr. MacE vov are
wen Known comic opera singers; as
well as "head-liners" in vaudeville on
the big circuits. Elmer Beard the
contononist will add to his reputa
tion by way of new and difficult
work. "Bob" Hendricks, who is the
laugh provoker on the bill, will do a-
weary w my" stunt that is full of
ins u,uai good, clean, wholesome fun
Trot. J-auzard will also make a hid
for further appreciation in new addi
tions of mystery to those already
seen. Miss Holland will smc a new
song and new striking life pictures
will be seen. The Bakeronian orches
tra will give popular new selections
an with such an excellent, attractive
bill, crowded houses should be the re
sult. Don't miss this bill, "it's
corker."
CHICAGO. Jan. 28 "If the United

Have you been having trouble to get a butter that vou could Henend
upon always being good? "FERNDALE" is ,a brand that you can rely
upon at all seasons of the year and every day in the year.
Ihe reasons for this are: in the first place we use nothing but the very
best quality of cream, no two or three weeks old cream in our goods, then
it is made up in a scientific manner by one of the best butter-makers in
the world, a man who is not only a graduate of 'he best dairy school in the
United States but one who has had over 20 years of experience in butter
making.. Then, too, our butter is clean, from the time the cows are
milked until it is made into butter and packed in our dirt proof cases, we
watch every stage of the handling and making in the most careful manner.
Now which kind of butter had you rather use, the kind that is ma.ie
of any kind of cream that can be bought, in rathe? an indifferent way hy . -
butter-maker that does not understand the hygienic principals of butter
making? Or would you rather have a butter that vou kn ;. ,,!,. t
start to finish? Remember "FERNDALE" costs no' more than the other
kind. : Talk it over with your Grocer and-see what he says about it.
