Marquam, "The Country Squire."
"The Country Squire," which appeared
at the Mprquam last night Is largely
a Lee WHlard production. Mr. Wiliard
is very conspicuous In the rural comedy,
as it is called, so much so ln fact that
his supporting company Is largely ex
cluded during the three acts of the play.
One wonder's at times what .has become
of the rest of the. characters who were
seen in the first act. when they 'Will
again appear and what earthly good
they can do when they do show up.
Mr. Wiliard does his part very ac
ceptably. Mr. Elton as Lot Thorn, the
deacon, is reasonably good, as are

MY TREATMENT FOR WEAKNESS
Functional derangement, such as .premature loss
of power, etc.. Is neither a '.'weakness" nor n
disease. It Is a symptom of prostatic disorder.
To stimulnlft activity by the use of powerful
tonics Is an easy matter, but such results ar.i
merely temporary drug effects. Most doctors
treat "weakness" in this manner because they do
not know how to cure 'he real cause of the
derangement. I am the only physician employ
ing scientific nnd successful methods. My treat
ment Is a local one entirely anI corrects every
abnormal condition of that vital center, the.
prostate gland. My cuics are real cures and aro
permanent.

FOOTBALL IN ENGLAND.

The players of football ln Great Brit
ain and their followers have always
congratulated themselves that the game
In force in their country differed from
American football in that it was re'e.lly
a game and not especially dangerous.
This optimistic view has been consid
erably shaken during the last few years.
Accidents nave been extremely plenti
ful: there has been a fair crop of se
rious ones, and fatal results have oc
curred with unpleasant frequency. In
the course of the present season, accord
ing to an article which appeared ln the
Lancet of November Iff, football has
been responsible for six deaths and for ;
the disablement of 60 persons at asso- i
elation football alone. I
This list did not Include those Injured "
at Rugby football. ' When It Is consid- :
ered that at the time of writing the
Lancet article the season had begun
nnlv a few weeks previously, and that it i
does not end until the end of March, the
outlook is decidedly gloomy.
