At tho Grand Opera House "Mastor
and Man" will be tho attraction for
Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The
popular demand for realism has led
to the production OF effects on the stage
that were at one time hardly dreamed
OF. Thus we have had tanks OF real
water, genuine fire engines, steam loco.
motives, etc. Now we are promised
more realism in Master and Man"
which will show the interior OF an iron
mill in full working order.

Dampen piece OF flannel with
Chamberain's Pain Balm and bind it
on over the seat OF pain. 1t is better
than any plaster. When the lungs are
sore such an application on tho chest
and another on the back, between the
shoulder blades will often prevent pneu-
monia. There is nothing so good for
lame back OF pain in the side. A sore
throat can nearly always be cured in one
night by applying a flannel bandago
dampened with Pain Balm.
