The advance sale of seats lor

phenomenal. "Alma" will be the i

This is the spicy French farce

city, In August 1910, and surprised
the critics and theatergoers of the
city by running the full season rimit
into the middle of .May 1911. The
"Alma" company conies direct from 1
New York under .loe Wight's m r t -ageinent.
The following Is from a letter
written to Ed. Andrews, the old
time opera singer, now residing in
Medford, and dramatic and musical
critic for the Mall-Tribune of that
city, from his brother-in-law, Mr. C.
A. Parker, of New York city:
"Dear Ed. I set by the Dramatic
News that "Alma. Where Do You
I. he" plays in Medford March 9th.
While I understand yon get the best
musical shows that come to the
coast I assure you that you have
rot had the equal of "Alma" In the
way of musical comedy. The play
came here from Germany and was
played in the German theaters for a
year. It made such a hit that It
was translated Into the English and
scored an instant success. After
many at tempts to secure a lady to
play the part of "Alma." they finally
selected Miss Nanette Mack, the
-;rcatcM woman lu musical comedy
'oday. She is not only a fine act
ress but she can siuir. She was of
fered the leading role in Pucclnle's
new opera "Girl of the Golden
West" and would have taken It If
she had not already signed for the
part of Alma. We call her here In
Now York the coming Melba. lie
sure and seo her and also tell your
friends, for I understand you are a
musical people out there in iMetlfotd.
The itt'islc Is great - lint the- old
worn out stuff that has been banded
you for the past decade."
In addition to Miss Ela-k. "the
new Melba," whose salary Is under
stood to be $fH0 pti- week, the
"Alma" company contains the
names tt( Charles A. Murray, one of
the best singing comedians, and Au
drey Yates, declared to be a better
vocalist than" W. J. Scnnlan or
Chauticey Olcott.
There are fourteen song hits,
without the encore numbers, In
"Alma."
The advance sale has exceeded
that (if any nttractaion ever bookod

Mil tie I'l'oui Grape.
Of nil the fruits that grow to glv'1
sustenance and nourishment to man
kind, the grape is the most famous.
A favorite subject of the poet, his
healthful, luscious fruit has from
the beginning of time been celebrated
lu song and story. Therefore it U a
pleasure to know that to the grape
we are lydebted for some of the finest
fends that go to our table, for from
the grape Is derived Koyal Grn,ic
Cream of Tartar, the chief ingredient
and active principle of the world- re
nowned Koyal Making Powder.
While the connection between bak
I ing powder and grapes may seem re
! mote, it Is evident to those who know
j t It it t cream of tartar exists in all ripe
i '-'rapes, from which I Is (iiivrllv pro-
i
