LIE GRAND DUCHESS.
The Calhoun opera Company Scores q
Decided Hit.

The Sunday Eye, Bloomington, I'll,
says Bloomington was honored by the
presence of the Calhoun Opera Com
pany yesterday. The Grand Duchess
was given on the matinee bill and
Amorita was the evening complement
Those who failed to see this superb
musical organization missed rare
treat. The principals were not alone
lyracal artists but actors as we'll.
The audiences that greeted these pre-
formances with salvos of applause
seemed unable to express their unfeign-
ed delight at the marvellous execution.
Adele FarrinSton as the Duchess was
charming. She sings like a silvery
noted and lily throated song queen.
Prince Paulfound a worthy represent
ative in Edward Webb. Mr. Webb
has very fine voice and knows how
to use it. Mr. John Allison as General
Baum was par excellence. Mount
Walker Joy was an ideal Baron Puck.
The others were not only good but
grand. Miss Emily White as Wanda
was superb. Probably the most attrac
tive of all was J. Aldrics Libby, who
was cast for the role of Private Fritz.
He has a wonderful pleasing voice
and a captivating manner The cos
tunes were elegant and the scenic
efforts all that could be desired.
Amorita was repetition of the artis
tic success achieved in LIE Grand
Duchess. We are sorry that more Of
our people were not present to witness
the opera mentioned for they were
certainly the finest ever given here,
barring none.

Gave Back
Ny Health.

There is no reason for being respondent
and considering diseases of the blood
incurab1e, simply because the treatment
of physicians and many so-called blood
remedies fail to effect a cure. Though
it is naturally disheartening to the suf-
ferer who faithfully takes the prescribed
treatment of the physicians, often at the
expense of hundreds of dollars, to find
himself, no better as time goes
by, still cure will result from the right
remedy, S.S.S., no matter what other
treatment has failed.
The reason that S.S.S. (Swift's Spe-
cifc) has so successfully cured even the
worst cases after other treatment had
been tried in vain is that it is the only
remedy which forces the poison from
the blood and permanently eliminates
it from the system, which is the only
correct principle of curing the disease.
Mercuria1 remedies bottle up the poison
and tear down the system, while SIS.
forces out the poison and builds up and
adds strength and vigor to the entire
system. It is natures remedy, and con-
taius no harmful ingredient.

RACINE END OF TT.
what the Racine Times Says OF the Two
Girls Capture.

After telling the fact that Belle
McLinden and Eva Ruth were captured
by the police in Racine the Times of
that city says:
The police on their beats were
given a description Of the girls and
Officer Schumacher was sent out to see
if he could not locate them in some
public place. He first got track Of
them at Kannenberg's store on Doug
las avenue where they tried to pur-
chase two tickets on the electric road
for Milwaukee, but they only had 10
cents. They had crossed the city from
the Junction in a Park avenue car.
They then started to walk. Schu-
macher boarded the next north bound
car and overlook the girls near Os-
born's farm, making good time. He
brought them back to the police office
Isabella is but Is years of age and
is pretty brunette with an eye that
has been trained to wink. Eva is 19
years old and but little can be said of
A1OA OCdOuS. AO0OCllb ACAo sOhOuSh CAV
for half dozen girls. She holds that
Kenosha is not rapid enough for her
and she will not live there. She has
been working at the spring works but
her motheg takes her money from her.
She held that if she could only go to
Milwaukee she would be all right, for
there she had sisters, cousins and
aunts.
Eva only answers questions. She
has been living with an uncle when
she was noe working out. She said
she did not induce Isabella to go on
these escapades but that it was the
latter who was always out for good
time.
Chief Stemm came up late this
afternoon and took the girls home.
They will probably be cared for this
time.
Eva had in her possession letter
to Chief Stemm from Chief Of Police
Ripley of Chicago, setting forth that
Isabella was perfectly willing to return
to Kenosha and took no stock in the
report that she had been enticed by
EVa.n

ABOUT THE FIGURE 9.
And It's Years of Service In Our
Calendar.

The figure 8, which came into the
calendar January l, 1889, will stay
with us LILO years from that date, or
until December, 1899. No other figure
has had such a long consecutive run
in the centuries, and the figure itself
has only once before been in the date
of every year for a century, and that
was from January l, 88J to December
81, 500. Other figures occasionally fall
into odd combinations, but none of
them ever yet served for a longer pc
Rod than 100 years in our calendar,
since the present manner of calcula-
ting time was established. 1t is also
clear that from the relative positions
of the numerals it is an impossibility
for any other of them to appear in
date reckonings continuously for a
longer period than century.

Mr.. Charles Glenn, of 1868 Dudley St.,
Cincinnati, is one of the many who
constantly praise S SIS. for giving him
back his health. He says:
"From childhood was afflicted with
a terrible blood disease, and have
taken almost every blood remedy on the
market, but my case was deepseated,
and one by one they failed. The large,
red b1otches increased in size and num-
Der, and soon covered my entire body.
"My parents had me treated by num-
Der of physicians, but the disease was
too much for them, and after their tenn
porary relief was over, found myself
growing steadily worse. Thus I grew
into manhood, handicapped by terrible
disease. and having tried 50 many RENE
dies without relief, when a friend urged
me to take SIS S. had little faith IN any
medicine. I was happy to find, however,
that had at last gotten the right remedy,
for one bottle of SIS did me SO much
good that soon had hopes of being cured.
I continued the remedy, and was cured
completely, the unsight1y spots soon
disappeared, leaving my skin perfectly
clear. My general health was also built
up, and I am robust and strong. I be-
lieve SIS. will cure the worst case of
blood poison in the world"
SIS. is a real blood remedy, and will
cure the most obstinate cases of Cancer,
Eczema, Catarrh, Scrofu1a, Rheumatism,
Contagious Blood Poison, old sores,
or any disease caused by impure blood.

We clip the following from the Fur
niture Herald: A recent dispatch from
Kenosha, Wis, says: A effort is soon
to be made to secure a pardon for
George Perren, one of the men con-
victed of arson in the famous trial of
September, 1895. Shortly after the
burning of the American Bedding fac
tory he was arrested in Grand Rapids,
Mich, and brought here under the
charge of arson. The charge against
him was secuted by some of the best
citizens of the place. He was con-
victed, however, and now it is said
that new facts show that he was vic
tim of circumstantial evidence.

Geneva Ala, in letter inquiIing the
price of a dozen bottles, that he might
OF only have it for use in his own
family, but supply it to his neighbors
The reason some people get along
without it, is because they do not know
its value, and what a vast amount O.
suffering it will save. Wherever it be
comes known and used, it is recognized
as a necessity, for it is the only remedy
that can always be depended upon fol
bowel complaints, both for children an(
for adults. For sale by Starkweathel

LETTERS TO MIpDLEeuRY PEOPLE.

Mrs. A. w. DICKENS, Middlebury, Vt.
Madam You ask why a mild soap
will get clothes just as clean, just as
easily and just as quickly as strong
soap?
We might answer that question by
asking one: Why will water quench
thirst better than beer or whiskey?
Water is mild; beer and whiskey
strong.
If man simply wants to quench
thirst, water will do it. But if he wants
to kill four birds with one stone-quench
thirst, get drunk, rob his family, degrade
himself, water loOn't do il.
Same with soap: If you simply want
to get clothes clean. easily, quickly,
cheaply, mild soap will do it.
But if you want to kill four birds with
one stone-get clothes clean, rot them,
use more soap, rob ourself, mild soap
,cOnt do it.
The reason is: 1t can't. a mild soap
like Harmless is boiled G to 5 days, or
until the I've is all absorbed-all taken
up by the oil in the tallow; that is what
makes it mild. The I've is there, but
you don't get the bad effect.
It's like adding water to bitter medi-
cine; you get the effect of the medicine,
but not the bad taste.
Yours truly,
