THE CITY" 10
BE SEEN TOHIGHT
Play In Which Clyde Fitch "Came
Back" Is Offering Tonight at the
Hcdford Is Gripping Drama
Great Second Act.
"Tho City," Clyde Fltch'e great
drama, will bo seen nt tho Medford
tonight and no doubt will prove a
groat attraction.
"Tho Cly" Is tho play with which
Clydo Fitch "camo back." After
turning out "Nathan Halo" and
"Barbara Frlotchlo" and one or two
other playa with body and sentiment,
Fitch degenerated Into that long ser
ies of bright and chatty, but rapid
comedies of manners with which his
name Is most often linked. So tho
critics, dear amiable creatures as
they arc, all told lFtch that It was
beyond his ability to write a play
with any real emotions or any real
blood In It.
Fitch took up tho defl and write
"Tho City." Tho emotion and tho
red blood Is there; some folks may
think In oven too generous a meas
ure. It is not a play that children
should witness. It gets too uncom
fortable close to topics that aro not
discussed In mixed assemblages.
There Is no one obvious moral. Rath-

Second Act Great.
What makes the play grip Its au

a cold perspiration, gripping its seats
and gritting its teeth to keep from
crying aloud. The act is 40 minutes
of masterful melodrama, and when it
Is over tho actors and auditors alike

It Is In this second act that there
occurs tho afmous expression of pro
fanity, never heard upon tho Ameri
can stage until lFtch wrote this play.

Nancy A. Hcrrick, being duly sworn, deposes and says: When
I was a girl, I had a head of heavy, long, dark brown hair which
was the envy of my schoolmates, and which atlraclcd the atten
tion and remarks of strangers. As I grew older, my hair com
menced to come out, Just a little at first, but gradually more and
more, and then began to turn gray. 1 was Induced by the many
good reports I had heard of Wycth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy to try a bottle. My hair was quite thin and gray when
I began using Sage and Sulphur, and you can imagine my satis
faction when I found that it was fast coming back to its natural
condition, being thicker, darker and more glossy than it had been
for a long time. I continued to use Sage and Sulphur, and my
hair is now as heavy, dark and smooth as when I was a girl of
sixteen. It is now four years since I commenced using Sage and
Sulphur, and my hair is still in splendid condition.
