AMUSEMENTS.

THOMPSON-PAYNE PICTURES. A SPLENDID PROGRAMME. The usual Saturday change will be shown at the T.P. Electric Theatre this evening, when patrons are ussur- | ed (:i being presented with a fine j selection of subjects. The star picture is a rousing Bison drama "When j Lee Surrenders." This is a stirring j story of the American Civil War, in which some very realistic lighting is shown, tho various scenes of battle being vividly portrayed. The Union forces are obliged to retreat owing to reinforcements not arriving in time and one of the Yankee officers is seriously wounded. He takes refuge in a house in the vicinity, and the Confederates take possession of the house, but the daughter of the owner hides the wounded man in her room, from which he escapes 'by stunning a sentry. The reinforcing party ar- | rive and drive the Southerners out;.j of the house, and finding the officer's coat they imagine that he has been killed by the owner. The girl's j father is accused of the murder and t iken to the camp of the Yankees for trial. He is sentenced to death, but the daughter finds the officer, r who is successful'in getting the father released. Eventually the officer falls in love with the grn and asks her to marry , him. Anothos fine drama is "A False Order," depicting an actual railway collision in which ' two large locomotives crash into one another. "An Unknown Language" is an Edison production which will appeal to all picture lovers. The Vitagraph Company aro represented in «sThe Bridegroom's Error" or "Wanted, a Pair of Pants," which is a com-edv-drama, which will prove acceptable to everyone. Another of the popular "Pellie" series will be screened in "Dr Brian Pellie and the Wedding Gifts," which is produced in the Clarendon Company's usual fine style. A comedy of unusual charae'ter will be shown in the Keystone Company's production "The Water Nymph," which features Mists Mabel Normatid in one of her popular diving acts. The novelty of this film should appeal to all. The latest topical events and fashions wilil be shown in ? 'Eclair Jonrnal.'' Numerous comedies, etc.. complete the programme, among ' which .are "The Persevering Cabbv," "Just Hats." and "Funnieus' Idea." There will be a matinee at 2.30 this afternoon. TOWN HALL . fCTQRES. GRAND CHANGE TO-NIGHT.

Detective-drama constitutes the Bill-of-fare to be presented at tho Town Hall this evening by the Masterton Picture and Entertainment Company. An* intensely thrilling picture will be presented for the only time in Masterton and is said to be a real startler. The production is entitled "The Escape of The White Glove Gang," and shows De Croz?, the* chief of the gang, who is left in captivity, regaining his freedom. De-. tective Necker is given, charge ,of the case, and finds the gang's old headquarters are let, he calls on the estate agents. These, he comes to the conclusion, are connected with the gaing, and a masterly coup Topes them, all in with the exception of the lady secretary, Suznrne, who manages to slip away. For a short time all is quiet. But a watch on the out-going cables reveals a message to De Croze in the West Indies, warning him to change his route home. The detective proceeds to Marseilles, where, luckily, he is enabled to find Suzanne, and follows her to Cape Ferrat. The, girl hires a motor-boat and dashes out to meet a sailing vessel. Necker follows, and, boarding the vessel, demands to ] see the captain, and the two criminals are called upon ito surrender. . Two shots are fired, and Suzanne staggers out saying that her chief is dead. The detective enters to verify this, ( and the sound of more shots ring out. Rather than be taken alive De Croze fires the vessel, attd while all else escape, he is left alone in the midst of the seething furnace. Thus perished the masterhand of the notorious gang, whose deeds had been the talk of a whole continent. A more successful portrayal would be hard to imagine, and the production is sure to be appreciated by patrons of the Town Hall. A 'superb spectacular and sensational drama, direct from a phenomenal success in 'Australia, is the Vitagraph Company's picture "Two Women and Two Men." Other pic r tures sure to attract are: "Kubo's I Troupe of Acrobats," "Casey at the Bat," "Faithful Dumb Friends," "Jim Goes Fencing Mad," "St Gothard—Andernatt to Goschenen," and the latest Topical Gazette. The whole programme is presented on a scale of splendour and will create a great "hit" in local picture circles. Unfortunately, this programme will , only be presented for one night, as the liaH is otherwise engaged next J week. J

JURE tfOR GRAVEL AND STONE. When there is a sediment like brickdust in the urine it is an indication that the kidneys are not doing their work properly, and immediate steps ihould be taken to restore their healthy iction. If this precaution is neglected, the particles may . gradually become larger, and the miserable suffering caussd by Gravel or Stone result. Stones "are usually formed in the sidneys, and descend thence into the oladder. They are composed of uric icid, or of oxalate of lime—-solid matter which should be held in solution in the fluids of the body, and be passed >ff in a dissolved condition in the urine. Uric acid stone is by far the communist kind. When a stone is formed in a kMney, §reat pain in the loins is felt, and thi* aecomes agonising when the >t.one ■eaves the kidney' and passes through ine of the narrow channels leading to ,he bladder. The pain then experisnced is known as Kidney Colic. It .•eases when the stone Reaches the bladler. Once in the bladder, the stone may )« passed off with the urine, or it may :emain and become larger by the ac:umulation oi deposits. Sometimes > I itone will fol-m in the bladder by thi i ample gathering together of particlei •i gravel. I Persons of all ages, may suffer from i itone or gravel. Even little children I tre not exempt. • When a stone, formed in the kidneya, s too large to pass through the pa#' tage leading to the bladder. - the paß- - becomes dropsy sets in, nd the patienl may die ffi a fevi •ours. _ When stones remain long in the blaa ler they grow to a great size, some •mes as large as an orange, and thej equently have to be cut out. The rational method of treatment s to correct the action of the kidney#, .hereby removing the cause. In J lealthy condition of the kidneys ano irinary system the water holds th« f tolids in solution until )t escap'es; fron .he body. In disease the solids are de I josited in the kidneys and bladder.

From '<* Mr. Hans Nilsen. 207.Miller street, North Sydney, N.S.W., 19ti October, 1911. "For years I suffered very Beverelj :10m my kidneys. I had excruciating >ain in the back and in my sides. Mj nine would often be , full of a brick lust-like sediment which caused m« Treat pain while urinating. My appe Lite was very fickle, and I was muci -educed in flesh. When I commence* *0 take Warner's Safe Cure 1 was in eed in a" very weak state of health, ant' Jisinclined. for any kind of exertion Mv sleep was very much disturbed bj ,h'e pains in-my back and head. I toot several bottles of Warner's Safe Cure ind that medicine completely and et fectually cured me. 1 have had nc trouble siince. and for my present gooc nealth T give the credit wholly to Wai lerVSafe Cure." i From Mrs. .1 Thompson, 583. Hannan jtrfeet. South Kalgoorlie, W.A., 2nt November, 1911. "I suffered with my kidneys and fron gravel a short- time ago and was get Tin" verv run down in health. Th* ioctor who attended me regularly ad vised m« to undergo an operation. Ai -lmes the pain was so intense that I had to have morphia injected whicl *ave me temporary relief only. A friend recommended me to take War ner'sr.Safe Cure, and after taking neve ;al doses I bepan„to feel better. Whei I had .taken the contents of four bottlei .he symptoms of my complaint com jletely left me.'' From Mrs. E. Peiren. 11, Vine-street Red fern, ■ -Sydney, N.S.W., 14tt March. 1910 "My son suffered for nearly six nonihs fioni -severe kidney complaint. [ .t(ml\ lnni to several well known Syd ley doctors without trood result. Some jf the doctors said that he had gravel, out their medicine did him no good. I Jecided to try, Warner's Safe Cure, lc ill, he took three small bottlesful when he was thoroughly restored to health. I cannot speak too highly of Warner i Safe Cure for kidney complaint." Warner's Safe Cure for the kidneyi and liver is sold by chemists anc storekeepers everywhere, both in th* original bottles and in the cheapei (2s 6d) "Concentrated, ' non-alcoholit torm.
