NEW YEARS ATTRACTION. The New Years attraction at the Grand opera house will be Uncle Josh Spruceby," which presents a sim
 pie, plain and unvarnished pathetic as
 well as humorous recital. Josh Spruce by" Is true blending of the funny and
 the serious, just as represented by the
 lives of some persons The story Is
 dramatic for the reason that it is filled
 with stage surprises, at the same time
 it is simple story because it deals
 with only simple people. While not
 claiming to be a homespun story 1t is
 at the same time true to life. Those
 who have enjoyed Uncle Josh Spruce
 by in time past will not need any urg-
 ing, and to those who have never en-
 joyed that pleasure we can say look in on Uncle Josh Spruceby" and you will know that you have put in a pleasant evening and only regret that the time passed so quickly. Seats now selling.

THE LUXURY OF MODERN RAIL
 WAY TRAVEL,

The gratitude of tourists who appre- ciate the acme of luxury in railway travel is due in no small measure to the Southern Railway system. Their line of operation is the great highway that leads by Washington, D. C., to and through the southern States. Year by year they have adopted any improve ment that could add in any way to the comfort of that army of visitors who make their winter home in the vast
 territory covered by it's network of
 lines.
 An example of the superb trains oper-
 ated by the company is the "Southern's s

 months. This magnificent train will be

SUCCESSFUL DENTAL WORK.
Dr. Monks of the Philadelphia Denta

Dr. Monks of the Philadelphia Dental
 Rooms Among the Foremost in the
 Profession.
 As the end of the holiday season draws near one is inclined to plan for the resumption of their usual round of duties. The thread of the ordinary is about to, be taken up where it was temporarily dropped for the Christmas festivities. Not the least of these du- ties. however, is the care of the teeth. Perhaps they have been somewhat trou- blesome during the feasting of the hol- idays, and the dentists chair must be resorted to. It is not alone, however, the chair that one looks to in the selection of place where ones teeth Is to be "cured." The scientific and profess sional abilities of the operator or den- tist is the prime factor. There is lots of wear and tear on these delicate parts of the human anatomy, and as they are subjected to a great deal of wear and tear, three hundred and sixty five days in the year, year in and year out, it is readily apparent why the man that understands thoroughly what he is doing is the man to remedy the rav- ages of nature and neglect
 The Philadelphia Dental Rooms un- der the management of Dr. l.. D. Monks has been located in this city for num- Der of years and has established an en- viable reputation for their work that is daily increasing. Their method of bridge work and plates has no superior and Dr. Monks who is foremost in the profession has made an especial study of this branch of the profession. An other department that has had the benefit of close study and research is the extracting. This is the most un- pleasant feature of the dentists work both for the dentist as well as for the patient. Dr. Monks has placed this de- partment on basis that is the envy of many in the profession, and one sits in the chair with jumping molar to arise in few seconds minus the aching tooth, free from pan, and unable to tell when it was done.
 These dental parlors are very cen trally located at 7S1 Chapel street and anyone contemplating having any work of the kind done would profit by having pr. Monks make an estimate as to the cost

FOR A MILITARY CLUB.
Steps Taken for One at Meeting Held
 Saturday Night.

| Steps Taken for One at a Meeting Held
 Saturday Night
 The first meeting of the national guard from all over the state who are interested in the organization of mili- tary club was held Saturday night and considerable enthusiasm was shown. About fifty well known military men | met at the Tontine hotel to discuss the | situation.
 The plan of organization met with the approval of all present and a commlt- tee to look further into the matter was speedily appointed. On this committee are Colonel R. S. Woodruff, Colonel T. F. Callahan, Cap tain Luzerne Ludington, Captain J. F. Donovan, Captain F. 0. Greuner, Lieu tenant F. P Lewis, Lieutenant II. F. Punderson.
 They will look up suitable quart CTS and will decide on the men who are eligible to membership.
 The subject of dues was one which caused considerable discussion. A mo- tion to have an initiation fee was promptly voted down and the dues per annum are to be left undecided until IL IS hllOWl WHdl luc COSl Ol ing the club will amount to. It is thought, however, that the dues will not exceed $20 per annum.
 Colonel Theodore Sucher presided as chairman and Lieutenant H. F. Pun derson was secretary.
 Following this meeting the committee appointed for further investigation held a conference and quarters for the club were discussed.
