"A Mountain - Pink" is one of those
popular' dramas which so endear themselves
to the theatre goers and which gives ocP
casion to many a thrilling scne anoVrTnany
a pathetic bit of character acting or comical
impersonation? Of-dTthis class of plays,
says the Little Rock (Ark.) QaUtU, "there
are none which have become such general
favorites as has the .'Mountain Pink and
of all of the Sincerity Weeks who have ap
peared before tbe : public, there are none
who have won such a firm place as has
Bella ? Moore . the charmin g little actress,
who so well - sssumed the role ; last, night.

THE FLORENCE , NIGHTINGALE OF . THE
NURSERY. The following la an extract from a
letter written to the German Reformed IS&senger.
at Chambersburgh, Penn.: - A Bihitactbiss. Just
open the door for--her, and Mrs.- Wtnslow will
prove the American. Florenoe Nightingale of. the
Nursery. Of this we are ao? sure, that we will
teach our "Susy" to' say, "A blessing - on Mrs.
Wmalow" for helping her to survive and escape
the griping, colicklng, and teething siege. :Mbs.
Wikslow's Boothih Stbup relieves the child
from pain, andmres dysentery and diarrhoa. It
softens the gums, reduces mnammation,oureswmd
eolle, and carries the infant safely through the
tee thing period. It . performs precisely what it
professes to perform, every part - of it-Hnothing
lem. We have never seen Mrs. Window know
her only through the preparation of her "Soothing
Syrup for Oilldren Teething." If we had the
power we would make her, as she jsa physical
saviour to the infant race. - Sold bv-all druggists.
