Monday. January IS is a pure, clean
comedy with none of the ''horse play"
Iabout it that so many authors indulge
in to make people laugh The plot
bears evidence of exceptional skill in
construction. The dramatic poin's
are humorous in the extreme and en-
tail no end of laughabie situations. a
livery capable company headed by Marie
ELamour and Frederic Murphy, give the
comedy an excellent interpretations.
Notwithstanding the extreme cold

Pilkington of Maiden L1ne, London
The Olmitz boys say that when you

case settled and settled good and
plenty, get Jack. From what we
learned while up there there is more
truth than Prose in this claim on be-
BALI of the O,mitz attorney.

side of it step ladder to get to the
top of the glass so he could sip the
tempting nectar. The foam, rose up
before him like f1eecy cloud, and. as
he dived into dt he lost his balance and

he lives to tell the story is because he

he had absorbed the beer and was res

TRUTH WINS.
An Appeal to the Common Sense of
the Public Meets With Quick Re-
Spouse. Read the Verdict.

A few short months ago we submit
ted TO the intelligent public, an article
calling attention to the discovery of an
actual Catarrh Cure. Skeptics there
were plenty owing to the many worth
less preparations heretofore offered in
this country, some few of which might
relieve but none could cure this most
distressing disease.
SNUFFLES, the GUARANTEED
CATARRH CURE, reaches the very
seat of this disgusting disease and re-
moving the cause, affords gentle yet
complete and positive cure.
Numerous voluntary testimonials
like the following are received daily:
/ was troubled with Catarrh in the
throat, my physician did not seem to
know what to do for it, and seeing so
much in the papers about ISM UF-
FLES," THE CATARRH CURE,
thought would try it, and | must say
that it has already helped me so much
that l feel / shall be perfectly cured.
After using one box of "SNUFFLES"
l felt like new person. REV. q. w.
McCRAF, Quincy, Fla.
/ cannot praise ''SNUFFLES'' too
much. 1t is wonderful treatment for
Catarrh. The first box gave me such
relief as have not had for years, and
six boxes cured me, although still
keep box on hand in case may catch
cold. I shall always do my best to
recommend it wherever l can.
M. T.. BAXTER, Marlboro. VT.
/ am using the sixth box of "SNUF-
FLES' and am surprised at the result.
am feeling better than have felt for
five years. The air passages are clean,
there is no discharge, and my head is
as clear as a bell. This is the only
Catarrh medicine that did me any
good, and have tried number.
j. CALDWELL, Ell Paso, Texas.
SNUFFLES is no ordinary remedy,
but complete treatment which is posi-
lively guaranteed to cure CATARRH
in any form or stage when used ac-
cording to directions. There are no
powders, acids, gases or inhalers, but
simple and pleasant treatment for
men, women and children. Don't
delay but send for it at once and write
full particulars as to your condition
and you will receive special advice
from the discoverer of this wonderful
remedy without cost beyond the regu-
lar price of the remedy.

800 Reward. 500.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages and
that is catarrh. Halps Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in its curative powers, that
they offer one Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials. Address,
