THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: BUN DAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1891. “Uncle Hiram.” The comedian, Aaron Woodhull, and bis company will shortly appear here In his latest success, “Uncle Hiram." The play is a sparkling yew England come dy, simple but interesting in plot, be sides haring all the elements of popu larity, and is diversified with good sing ing and dancing. Humor crops out everywhere in it. The role of Hiram Homespun introduces an excellent Ver mont farmer on tho stage. Be Is good,, and does not overdo the part of a coun try jay, but acts the farmer enough to bring down the house every time be makes a misstep. Mr, Woodhull has endeavored to cre ate a new character in the stage farmer and has succeeded. “Uncle Hiram," while shrowd and possessing the good and manly qualities of “Uncle Josh” in “The Old Homestead," is more of “the jay” and consequently creates more fun, He has all sorts of tricks played upon him, and every time Woodhull speaks the audience yells. He is admirably supported by the comedienne and pro tean artist, Miss Griswold, a handsome and talented girl, who captures the bouse at once with her numerous spe cialties, German warbling, etc. "Mothers used to say: “How I dread the night and the baby’s cough." How they say: “I fear no more to wake and get up—I’ve a bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup." Thlncs Not Generally Known. It is the large proportion of heated rays which causes the unpleasant sensa tion to delicate eyes, experienced after reading, writing or sewing for a consid erable period by the light of a kerosene lamp. The evil is always much greater in any kind of artificial light than in the com paratively cool light of day. Bobbed, as this often Is, of the greater portion of its seventy per cent, of heated rays by moist atmosphere and repeated reflections. If, therefore, we wish to protect the eye against the heated rays, we must pass the light through a substance which cuts off thejrays to the greatest possible extent. It is of this substance that the “Diamond Spectacles” are composed. Thcssuperiority of the diamond may be summed up as follows: 1. They are ground with the most pre cise scientific accuracy. 2. Tho temperature of the diamond fusion boing lower than tho atmosphere and the materials preventing the concen tration of the heated rays are kept cool, and weakness and disease are pre vented. How vital, therefore, it is that in pre paring to use spectacles only the best and those approved by scientific author ity should be selected.
