What This Means.

To catarrhal sufferers it means much. as
by overwhelming evidence il has been de-
monstrated that diseases of the nose
throat, and bronchial tubes can at last be
cured.
II means that Dr. Cowden has. even in
opposition TO his own best financial inter
ests, kept his promise TO the public b.
the acceptance Of low fees. which has nOJ
only enabled him TO prove the curative
effects Of his method. but has also allowed
people of very limited means 10 enjoy The
benefits of a treatment that has restored
their health after all else had failed and at
price they could afford TO pay
10 means that the end OF the small fee
for all diseases is at hand, and viii posi-
lively not be extended beyond April !. ex-
cept 10 those who apply before that date.
This includes both old and new patients.
This announcement should be carefully
considered By all people suffering from any
catarrhal disease.

CURES WITHOUT PAIN.
One of the Best Features of the New
Pile Cure.

One of the Best Features of the New
Pile Cure.
The Pyramid Pile Cure cures all forms
of piles without one particle of pain.
This desirable point is not obtained by
the use of injurious opiates which simply
deaden and paralyze the nerves of the
parts and make matters worse in the long
run But ii is done solely by its remark
able healing and soothing effects.
And while it thus gives immediate re-
lief, at the same time the disease is not
merely checked, but radical cure is rap
idly accomplished
And the point we want to make clear
is that all this is done without particle
of pain.
This fact is one great reason for the
constitutes one very great difference be-
tween it and almost any other kind of
treatment for piles.
Every kind OF surgical operation for
piles is eXcruciatingly painful besides en-
dangering the life of the patient and in
most cases Is not to be compared with the
Pyramid Cure, neither in making success
full cures without pain nor in cheapness
and safety.
The Pyramid Pile Cure has been before
the public so long, and its merits recog-
nized by too many people to allow it to
be classed with the many salves, SUPPOSE
tories, pills etc, and you run no risk
in trying it, as is often the case with
untried preparations.
If you are ever troubled with any form
of piles or rectal disease do not forget
the Pyramid Pile Cure. Prepared by the
Pyramid Drug Co., of Marshall, Mich, and
sold by druggists at so cents per package.

FEMININE ENTERPRISE.
Project of the Woman's Industrial
and Patriotic League.


A meeting of the executive committee OF
the Womans Industrial and Patriotic
League, which proposes TO establish in this
city an industrial exhibit 10 be opened at
the centennial celebration of the location
of the National Capital in the District of
Columbia, will be held at the Arlington
Hotel as soon as the weather moderates
The first meeting was TO have been held
this morning, but was postponed on ac-
count of the inclement weather.
Delegates have arrived from different
parts of the country, and the work of pre-
pairing an outline for the exhibit will be
taken up. Ii is the present intention to
nave building erected in which a room
will be set apart for each State in the
Union, where a permanent exhibit will be
maintained. This exhibit is intended to
show the world that woman possesses in
dustry, inventive genius; that she is skilled
in the arts, yersed in science and proficient
in manufactures; where record of her
work in peace and war shall be preserved
to show to future generations her worth
as industrial, moral and patriotic factors
Prominent among the delegates now in
the city for the purpose of arranging this
programme is Miss Lavina Dempsey. Vice
President for New York of the Woman's
Industrial Exhibit, and Queen of the Hol-
land Danes. Miss Dempsey, who is promi-
nent in New York society, has taken up the
industrial burden of her sex.
In speaking of the matter to a Times re-
porter, Miss Dempsey said that the success
of the exhibit was assured. Hearty en-
dorsements had been received from wom-
ems organizations from all parts of the
country promising liberal cooperation and
when the details of the work should be
arranged she predicted that tangible re-
suits would soon be forthcoming.
A bill was introduced in the Senate short
ly before the expiration of the session
providing Government aid for the exhibit
TO the extent of $4,000. and although ac-
tion was not taken, the women anticipate
little difficulty in getting the measure
through early in the next Congress.

AT THE THEATRES.
CoIumbia-"Brown's In Town,


Browns in Town" He arrived last
night at the Columbia Theatre under the
espionage of ]. J. Rosenthal and was
greeted by friendly throng of those who
had probably not heard of his adventures
in other cities or who put little faith in
the reports that preceded him. For the
gentleman in question had visited from
West TO East and had seldom been award
ed the praise and newspaper space that
would have seemed due him by the press
clippings mailed from the beery town Of
Milwaukee where he made his debut. Lay
men who met the newcomer yester- evening
seemed anxious to reverse the decision
given elsewhere-those who were in the
house in a professional capacity viii not
be able to do so.
As a matter OF fact, Brown is not only
a very ordinary person but he is coarse
and horsey and vulgar as we'll. He ap-
pears 20 be incoherent, is certainly not
bright. and really has very little excuse
FOR existence. The stories he tells con-
cerning himself have small evidence of
truth, are badly hung together and bear
disagrceable signs Of sameneSS. Further
than this. the guest in question eXagger-
ates greatly and conducts himself in an
lacTobatic way not at all fit with a man
who is holding a reception for society folk.
Altogether Brown is a most reprehensible
parsonage and fully deserves everything
unkind that has ever been said about him.
1t viii not be wise to make his acquant-
ance this week.
The visitor is introduced by nine indi-
viduals all of whom have been seen here
before, most Of them being very familiar
to Washingtonans. James o. Barrows
and John Lancaster, formerly members of
the Columbia Stcck Company, are two of
these and they are very entertaining.

Lafayette-"Mistakes VIII Happen, ,,

which attracted to the Lafayette a good

SEVERAL it has it's demerits and they are

otherwise would be very stupid indeed.

WELCOME WORDS
TO WOMEN.

Women who suffer with disorders pecu-
liar 10 their sex should write to Dr. Pierce
and receive free the advice of a physician
of over thirty years experiences skilled
and successful specialist in the diseases
of women. Every letter of this sort has
the most careful consideration and is of
course, regarded as sacredly confidential.
Many sensitively modest women write fully
to DR.. Pierce what they would shrink from
telling to their local physician. The local
physician Is pretty sure to say that he can
not do anything without 81 an examina.
ton" DR.. Pierce holds that these distaste
ful examinations are generally needless,
and that no woman, except i'll rae cases,
should submit to them.
DR.. Pierce's treatment will cure you
right in the privacy of your owai horue.
His Favorite Prescription" has cured
hundreds of thousands, some Of them
the worst imaginable cases. 1t is the
only medicine of its kind that is the pro-
duct of regularly graduated physician.

rietta Crosman is mechanical, stilted and

That Managers Burke & Chase have at

by the new bill offered at the Grand.
Like that of the preceding week, it aver
ages nightly well, occasionally jumping
into complete excellence but never, with
one exception. falling into more than usual
mediocrity. The exception this time was
an unaVOludDIe one, ana IL was stricken
from the programme after last nights per-
formance. 1t, or, more properly, they. are
Marion and Dean, whose turn is, to put it
mildly, not up to the standard of high-class
vaudeville. Their effect is more than dou-
bly, counteracted by Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney
Drew, whose sketch is a charming one,
and by Maud Courtney, who sings the
old songs, and sings them marvelously

tor than his brother, and his wife is fit

tertains passabiy: Walberti serves 10 in

Acknowledgement Service,

Secret Service was seen last night al
the National with William Gillette in the
role of the hero. The author-star re-
ceived an ovation on his appearance which
prevented any further proceedings on the
stage for at least minute, and there
were several curtain calls bestowed at
different times during the evening.
or Mr.. Giliette's portrayal Of Lewis Du-
mont it is unnecessary to say that it is all
that could be asked and a trife more. The
art which seems not to be art at all but
simply the natural behavior of the actor
is one of the rarest things in the word;
but Mr. Gillette has it. While apparently
""tire attention to the people
- the stage and speaking every line with
-.-. .--~-. LII, he has yet the ability to
impress every telling point upon his audi
eDce so that all the dramatic possibilities
of the part are brought out. Work such
as is shown in his impersonation of the
Union spy is so exceedingly supreme that
it seems almost necessary to place it in
class by itself Most performers in ay-
ing such role give it sensationalism or
fail to carry conviction; Mr.. Gillette never
makes either mistake.
A duo of other particularly good char
acterizations are the Caroline Milford OF
Hope Ross and the Wilford Varney of
Walter Thomas. These two are the most
entertaining pair of comic lovers lately
seen here. Miss Ross assumes the sou
brette part with an originality and charm
which is quite unusual, and there were
ripples of delighted laughter from the
house during nearly all the time that she
was on the stage. Mr. Thomas also real
lied all the comic, heroic, and pathetic
possibilities of his role. Charles Crosby
is remarkably good as Lieutenant Forey,
and Campbell Gollan received flatterng
round of Kisses for his villain. Sara Perry,
| as the heroine, is only fair. She is not
| melodramatic which is a particularly
strong point in giving a play like Secret
| Service, but neither is she convincing.
| The minor assumptions are all we'll taken.
