AT THE THEATER FORSYTH BILL DRAWS LARGS’ CROWDS THIS WEEK There has never been a greater inter est tn a bill' of vaudeville offered in At lanta than is centered In the really ex cellent combination of talent that makes up the program at the Forsyth this week. It is a show that is fine for warm weath er, and that would crowd the biggest theater in the city, just as it is filling the Forsyth at all performances now. The star attraction is the appearance of W’illa Holt Wakefield, the distinguished Atlanta woman, who has occupied a star position in vaudeville for a long time. She has not been here in four years, and, though a star at that time, she has advanced even further, and Is now one of the recognized features of this depart ment of things theatrical. Miss Wakefield presents her famous “pfanologue,” rendering talking songs that others have made, every effort to counterfeit, but without a suggestion of success. Her offering is really delightful and a splendid feature on any bill. There are other sterling acts. The I-angdons offer the most unique and orig inal comedy novelty that has been seen at the Forsyth. They also use a stage effect that is realistic and that has not yet failed to win applause. Carl McCul lough. the versatile young comedian, Is contributing something to the success of the bill, he tells good stories, sings well funny songs and his good natured traves ties on some of the well known stars please. The singing of Wright and Diet rich carries value and the Rex Burlesque tlireus ts one of the best closing acts the Forsyth has had. Seats are selling fost for next week, when Mabel Taliaferro will appear in her newest vaudeville sketch. Miss Talia ferro is the creator of Polly in “Polly of the Circus," and absolutely a new-comer in vaudeville, but her success has been as great as when she appeared in the $2- a -eat theaters Shep Camp, an Atlanta boy, who has been the star of Henry H Harris' “The Traveling Salesman his season, will be another of the features fur next week.

C. THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS: WEDNESDAY. MAY 29. 1912. Oh. see the beyootiful ladv! Has she been robbed? Yes, indeed. Also she is Robbing—Robbing Hood, our old friend, the John D. of the Not tingham forest. But when’was she robbed? Why, she was robbed tvhen she came to Atlanta with the grand opry singers spring before last. Two steamer trunks and one wardrobe trunk were robbed from her right here in Atlanta, since which time she has had to go about attired as you may observe if your eye sight be not failing. Alas, Poor Florence! Cruel robber! Poor Florence Wickham! But. ah! An even sadder thing has happened since that fell day. Florence was in her dressing room, on the fifth floor of the New Amster dam theater, in bad old Noo York, the > other night and the door got locked and she couldn't answer the cue for her | to appear on the stage and gladden a lapge and tumultuous audience —or, per haps, sightseers. One never can tell. What was she to do? Crash! A thought occurs to her! So she opens the window and climbs down the fire escape, knocks on the stage door and flits merrily to the spot light just in time to warble. “Oh. Prom ise Me.” Now, wasn't it lucky that that At lanta robber hadn't left her a skirt? Things always turn out for the’best. Women who bear children and re main healthy are those who prepare their systems in advance of baby’s coming. Unless the mother aids nature in Its pre-natal work the crisis finds her system unequal to the de mands made upon It, and she is often left with weakened health or chronic ailmenti. No remedy is so truly a help to nature as Mother’s Friend, and no expectant mother should fail to use it It relieves the pain and discomfort caused by the strain on the ligaments, makes pliant and elas tic those fibres and muscles which nature is expanding, prevents numb ness of limbs, and soothes the inflam mation of breast glands. The system being thus prepared by Mother's Friend dispels the fear that the crisis may not be safely met Mother’s Friend assures a speedy and complete recovery for the mother, and she is left a healthy woman to enjoy the rearing of her Mother’s Friend book for expect- ant mothers which contains much valuable information, and many sug gestions of a helpful nature.

WATER COMMISSIONER AT MACON STARTS RATE WAR MACON. GA., May 29.—Commission er W. A. Huff has notified the other two members of the city water board that he will apply to the courts for an injunction to stop tire sale of water to manufacturing consumers at 6 cents per 1.000 gallons. "Rather than give the city's water away to the wealthy class, while poor people are charged 30 cents for the same quantity, I am going to enjoin myself,” is the declaration of Commis sioner Huff. It has been calculated that it costs 7 cents to distill and distribute the wa ter, but the other two members decline <o raise the manufacturers’ rate or to reduce the charge for small consum ers.
