I STAGE AND STALLS I Next Week's Programmes at Local Hails. Doubtless many people have read or at any rate heard of. the iamouu novel. "Tne itaubi aud the Priest." wnicii created such a furore m America, where it had an al- most unprecedented sale. The Little Brother," adapted by Benedict Jamus, is founded on this remarkaole novel. It was produced at the Ambassadors' Theatre, Lon don. where it met with a most cordial re- ception from critics and public alike and from all appearances it bids fair to repeat its London triumph in the provinces. This Dlay is due at he Grand next week Among a. particularly strong caat stand out the names of.Lyn liarding. Fisher White, and Ben Nathan—three of the best actors on the English stage-and we also hear a whisper that a 'discovery has been made in Gicily Byrne while Evelyn Walsh Hall is alBeady known for good work done. As the Christian priest. Lyn Harding is the in- carnation of a fanatic whose earnestness is the justification of his intolerance; and as the Rabbi. Fisher White has a grave and gentle sincerity, a true charity and human- kindRess. No better representatives of tbi6 cornict of creeds could be chosen. In every way—as a play with a purpose, as a homily against reiigious intolerance, and ae a stimulating exposition of dramatic crafts- r,timiilatin f "reie Little Brother ,?,ill bold manship- TMe Little Brother" will bold its own against any test. There is a ma- tinee on Monday afternoon and Saturday afternoon. I A notable turn to head the list of attrac- tions at the Empire next week is Jack Pleasants.

WORRELL PAYS HIS PROMISED RETURN VISIT TO SWANSEA, AND MAY BE CONSULTED FREE OF CHARGE AT THE CENTRAL HALL, ORCHARD STREET, Commencing WEDNESDAY, MAY 22nd. Next week is to be a great week for Swansea—a time which thousands of townsfolk will remember with gratitude all their lives. Mr.Worrell, the London eyeeight specialist, is coming to help them. All his great skill and life-long expeirienee, all the remarkable talent and accumulated knowledge that 25 years' close study of the science of eight has tfught him to be placed freely and gladly at the service of every man, woman, or child who seeks his aid. What an opportunity! What a boon to the thousands of workers upon whose eight depends their daily existence, and who, hitherto, obliged to rely upon rough and ready methods, which are seldom without danger, will now be able to avail themselves of the expert ad- vice, professional skill, and experienced guidance that have been within reach of the rich only. Every sufferer from defective vision in Swansea, every victim of headache, neur- algia, staring squinting, and the host of other distressing discomforts resulting from defective eyesight is to be helped to w- clearly by this famous man. The great burden of their lives is to be lifted, and instead of groping their way from day to day—losing half the pleasure of life a'nd running the rik of serious eye trou hIe-they will be Made to 6ee o?ncel again with all the, vigour and distinctive- ness of their youth. WHY HE SUCCEEDS. He has travelled the world from end to end. In failing, faulty sight each par- ticula.r case has to be treated on its merits, and it is only by devoting precise., careful study to the vision of every man, woman. and child whp have sought his advice that he is able to prescribe the exact nature of leases that will overcome the defect. If your eyesight cannot, unfor- tunately, be corrected, he will tell you so, but if your full powers of vision can be restored, you will learn, by consulting him, how this can be achieved. •In the majority of cases expert advice is j beyond reach. A visit to London to see a specialist whose fees are reckoned in guinea-s is not to be thought of. There is no other way -but the casual choice of what seem to be the glassefe required— glasses that really seem to help the vision, but which in nine caries out of ten are entirely unsuited to the particular defect for which they are chosen—and which, instead of helping the eyes, too often ruin the eyesight and impair the health and brain nerves as well. This visit to the London specialist about which many have dreamed is no longer necessary. The specialist is coming to them. All Swansea is invited to meet hinv and discuss their individual cases with him. It is an opportunity few will miss. HEADACHES. Eighty per cent. of apparently incurable cases of headaches are due to defects of the eyesight, and can be permanently overcome by wearing properly fitted glasses. Most people suffering from headaches never suspect that their eyes are the source of the trouble. Yet it is so, as Mr. Worrell has found over and over again, CHILDREN'S EYES. Mr. Worrell has given close attention to eye defects in children, and all parents who are in the slightest doubt as to their children's sight should take them to Mr. Worrell and have their eyes thoroughly examined. They will be grateful for this forethought in later years. THE GREAT WAR ON HIGH PRICES. Mr. Worrell's services are to cost you nothing! For a week the doors of the CENTKAL HALL, ORCHARD-STREET, will he thrown open to the public, and Mr. Worrell will freely and generously advise and assist all those who seek his aid. His one object i6 to prove once and for all, by reason of the enormous business he conducts, that the high fees and inflated charges, which place the expert assist- ance of the specialist beyond the reach of the great mass of humanity, can be done away with. SIGHT SPECIALIST IN SWANSEA. r It is difficult to over-estimate the boon this remarkable man's visit will confer upon the town. It is a recognised fact that over 5G per cent. of the population of our large industrial centres suffer from, defective vision in one form or another- and the percentage in Swansea is higher than in many large towns. This M, perhaps, inevitable. The close work in the factory, workshop, and office -the straining of the eyes over the desk of work-table, frequently in a bad light- result sooner or later in an urgent need for glasses. l Mr. Worrell can only stay in Swansea I for one week. Make a point of visiting him early. The opportunity will hardly occur wain. To mi ss it now may mean a lifelong regret, and, perhaps, serious eye trouble. Even if the eyas seem all right, go and consult him. Hundreds of people make a point of doing this, as they know there is no fefir of being advised to wear gla-sseg^ when these a.re unnecessary; that, if all is well, they come away satisfied that thei t- eyesight is sound in every respect. And it oosts them nothing. HOURS of ATTENDANCE: 10 to 1, 2 to 7 DOn't put down this paper until you have fixed in your mind a time to go and see Mr. Worrell. Let him tell you exactly how things are with your eyes. It may cost you nothing'; in any case the cost will be much le&s than is ordinarily 1 charged. MR. WORRELL MAY BE CONSULTED AT THE CENTRAL HALL, ORCHARD STREET, NEXT WEEK, commencing WEDNESDAY, MAY 22nd. HOURS OF ATTEDA:NCE ;-10 a.m. to 1 p.m.; and 2 p.In. to 1 p.m..
