For Pretty Wedding Gffts
THERE are so many clever uses for pretty Cut
Glass, besides its radiant beauty when not
in use, that for Gift purposes it can hardly
be excelled. A choice piece of Glassware will
find a welcome in any home.
Cut Glass at Popular Prices
There js quite a difference in Cut Glass; much of it
is only ordinary. Compare the color and the brilliancy of
the glass we are showing with the reasonable prices
we are asking and you will admit that the values arc
the best to be had anywhere.
If you Iiavo a Wedding, Anniversary, or Birthday Gift
o buy, ve invito you to inspect this line for the sugges
tions it will offer. No obligation is incurred by "looking."

"Bunty PulU the Strings'."
Another troat in store for tho
patrons of the Keith theatre is "Bunty
Pulls the Strines." Graham Moffat's
famous play of Scotch hfeandimnnners,
the sweeping success of which in New
York and Loudon, hns been the great
est sensation of tho drnmatic world in
recent yenrs. "Bunty," presented by
nn all-Scotch eompnn'y of plnyers, in
eluding Miss Molly Mclntyro and
William Lennox, will bo at tho Keith
theatre for ono night, Fridny, April 11.
Iho story of the play deals princi
pally with tho tangled Utrnirs of Tam
inas Blggar, father of Bunty. Tammns
is n widower, a pillar of thn church and
nn honored citizen of Lintiehnugh, n
Village in the Highlands. But he hns u
Past, has been something of n gay dog
In his'day, nnd no one is bettor aware
of this than Susie Simpson, tho testy
nnd hypocritical spinster around whose
maehfnntions tho piny largely revolves.
Bunty, in love with W velum Sprunt,
the village enrpente- and an elder of
the church, irons out in deft, ingenuous
manner the entanglements in which her
father is enmeshed. She manages her
father, her brother, her sweetheart, the
entire village. All the While everyone
feels nnd knows sho is pulling the
strings, but nobody thinks of crying
halt, she docs it all so charmingly and
naively.
"Buntv Pulls The Strintrs" is said to
bo full of excellent dlnlogue, ppontnn
eous and natural, and crowded with
highly amusing situations, brimming
with quaintnoss and humor. Several
lastcrn critics have crowecd "Bunty"
as the greatest comedy of the decade
and it has been said of Mr. Moffat, tho
author, that he and the. splendid com
pany of Scotch players havo dono for
tho Scotch character and environment
the same sort of thing that mado James
A. Herno's plays of Now England life
tnumps of realism and of art.
Of the company thnt is to present
"Bunty'' it hns been said that their
playing is the very reflection of life it
,selt, with, not n tagy thing about it.
And humanity, therefore, walks upon
thescenos with all its dignity and sim
plicity, all its depth and foolishness.
Undoubtedly "Bunty" will recoivo the
same warm reception in North Platte
that the play has received everywhere
else.
A Growing Church.
The annual congregational business
meetingof tho First Presbytorinn church
was held Wednesday evening. Time
was a good attendance and it was an
occasion for rejoicing. Rev. J. C.
Christie, pa3tor, lef erred to their meet
ing that evening being somewhat in the
nature of a splritnal stock taking. It
wna much easier to gunge tho fmnncinl
progiess than the spnitunl advance
ment of a congregation; and it would
be difficult to say what aro spiritual
condition and progress was, and how
we. stood in this respect as compared
with twelve months ago. Tho treas
urer's report by J. C. Hollmon made, a
pleasi'ig nnnouneement thnt he had ' a
ualanco on tho ri,ht side. About $4,000
was raised 1'iom all sources during tho
year. The- various ieports showed an
advance along all lines over the pre
vious year and were nn inspiration for
entering1 on the ensuing year with on
CDinagement nnd hope.
After the business session an adjourn
ment wns mado to tho pallors where an
excellent snpper was served by tho
ladies and uvorvbody had a good time.
