PILLOw-INHALER Co.,
Corcoran Building,
Washington, D. c.

GENTLEMEN: l want TO add my
testimony in behalf of the Pillow
Inhaler. Ten years ago l pur-
chased one in Philadelphia. At
that time l was suffering with what
the doctors called chronic catarrh.
and had tried nearly every catarrh
remedy on the market. None
gave me relief. After a few weeks
trial of the Pillow Inhaler, l be-
came much better, and after a few
months my catarrh had left me
and has never returned. 1t has
been used by different ones in my
family for the relief of colds and
coughs, has always been effective,
and l would not be without one in
my house. 1t has given me pleas
ure to recommend it to many, some
of whom l have known to pur-
chase the Pillow and who spoke
highly in its favor.
Yours truly,
N. CARROLL Downs,

the scenes are laid in the mountains of
Spain and the home of royalty in Eng
land. II is an American play by an Ameri-
can author. In placing the drama in far
off countries better scoDe is given for
scenic effects. which make the story all
the more interesting. The whole play is
built on novel idea, and originality is
claimed for every scene shown. The cleo
trical effects are said to be something
new In stagecraft and mechanism. The
Brand of Cain will be seen at the
