" For pho toeranhy; natural' scenery,' stage set tings and feats of skill and daring. this picture, which cost -$i-,wu;ww- pius and which is recognized, as the Wil liam Fox; masterpiecer is- rightly call-: ed the "picture beautiful.5" " " Seeing the teh thousand feet of colorful, fascinating film, the audience will hardly realize that twenty-two times that number were taken before the camera men were satisfied, that they had made the most of their many months of work. Nither will the audience think the labor of the engineers and carpenters, masons and builders who wre needed to drain the swamps where was planted the beau tiful white Moorish city peopled by 20,000 persons. Then we have poet ically backgrounded a tale of undying' love in settings of imperishable beau ty. The pictures of the sea in its many moods and of the irrepressible Lee children and the many mermaids, are especially charming. The entire pro duction is a gorgeous dream, whose melodies linger with one through many days. The prices for "A Daughter of the Gods" which comes to Wilmington tomorrow matinee and night range from 5 cents to $1. Tickets are now selling at Elvington's. "IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE." It" is generally conceded that Roi Cooper Megrue and Waiter Hackett's farce, "It Pays to Advertise," which comes to the Academy of Music, mat inee and night on next Saturday, is one of thehest comedies seen in many seasons. "It Pays to Advertise" presents the very essence of American spirit, American humor and American char acter. If you saw -ibe- piece trans lated into French, German or any( other language there would be no mis taking its origin and certainly no more side-splitting farce Has been con cocted here. As a matter of fact, "It Pays to Ad vertise" is one of those plays that provoke real breath-bereaving mirth, the sort that makes you throw your head back until it rests on the back of your chair and laugh to .your heart's content. Yes! There is no doubt about it. "It Pays- to Advertise" is a rarely amusing, well-written and well-acted play and like all the best pieces of its kind it is founded on an original idea, which we will not here disclose for fear of spoiling thte enjoyment of prospective patrons. Matinee prices will be 75 eents and $1 for low er floor seats and 50 cents for the entire balcony. The night prices will range from 50 cents to $1.50. Tickets for both performances will go on sale Thursday at. Elvington's. A SPLENDID SINGING SHOW. The friends and admirers of that popular basso, Mr. Lester A. Lucas, of J. A. Coburn's Greater Minstrels, will be glad to hear of his early re turn to the Academy of Music, with, the company. "DoWh Deep In a Sub marine," and "The Port of Missing Ships," two of the latest numbers, are included in his solos this season. In letters to friends here he says: "There is no possible doubt that Mr. Coburn has the best singing show this season "I have taken Tanlac and am in bet ter shape now than I have been in years. Tanlac i3.a splendid medicine and I am very glad I found it." So spoke B. McD. Russell Pressman for The Wilmington Evening Dispatch, who resides at 105 South Ninth street. "For five years," Mr. Russell contin ued, "I suffered from what was diag nosed as neuritis. I didn't have confi dence in patent medicines and always went to doctors when feeling sick. My mother, however, took Tanlac, was helped by it and insisted that l try it DANCE OF THE SEA NYMPHS IN WILLIAM FOX'S MILLION DOLLAR TURE BEAUTIFUL, "A DAUGHTER OF THE GODS."

In the new first part this season Mr. Lucas as interlocutor impersonates the Maharadjah Naizam of Hadjma hul, Bengal, India, and in makeup, costume and action carries his hon ors gracefully asof yore. He is one of the best bassos and middle men in minstrelsy and credits his success to his present manager. The past record of Coburn's Minstrels in Wil mington is ample guarantee of what may be expected in the all new attraction. acter, was also especially good and true to type. But now. I am elad I took Tanlac. "Until that time I didn't dare to touch meats of any kind and lived on milk and crackers and, for a while, on nothing but bread and water. Even this would cause me to have large quantities of gas on my stomach and my heart, at times would reel as if it were going to run away. Of course, I was very nervous and din't sleep at nights for having such awfu ldreams. When awakened by these dreams I no ticed also that my hands and feet wrould be asleep. "Now all that numbness has disap peared. I have a real good appetite, can eat stewed, bked or broiled meats of any kind and anything I want ex cept friend meats, which I haven't tried as yet. I am not near so nervous and can sleep well at night." Mr. Russell knows well the value of printer's ink and offers his endors?- ! ment to Tanlac for publication tnat others who suffer like he did may learn his story and also gain health and hppiness. Genuine Tanlac is sold in Wilming ton exclusively by the Bellamy Drug Store. Each town has its Tanlac deal er. Advt. "BITTER TRUTH 'GRAND.
