VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES

To follow the very fine vaudeville show that has it's final presentation at the Jacques this evening, Manager Poli offers a unique attraction in a quadrnple top-line feature. That is to say, the feature consists actually of four features. These are the Four Hills in their beautiful skit on
 Home. Sweet Home,o an act that has been featured with much success in the principal vaudeville houses. Then we have keogh and Ballard in vaudeville absurdity which shows remarkable versatility ,on their part, and to supplement these Oracle Elm melt and her company show the ec- Hcentricities of Mrs Murphy's Second Husband. And to crown. all there is the great novelty of flie talking horse Bonner. This wonderful beast has been the talk of New York all the season, and his owner has refused some very tempting offers to star him with the leading circus this season, preferring to use him on the vaude- vile circuits. Other acts will be of Tered with these, making the show one of remarkable excellence throughout.

WILL CURE YOU OF RH EU MATISM
No Pay Until You Know It.

After 2000 experiments. have learned how to cure Rheumatism. Not to turn bony joints into flesh again; that Is im- possible. But I can cure the disease all ways, at any stage. and forever.
 I ask for no money. Simply write me a postal and I will send you an order on your nearest druggist for six bottles of Dr. Shoops Rheumatic Cure, for every druggist keeps it. Use 1t for a month, and if it does what l claim pay your drug gist $5.50 for 1t. If it doesn't, I will pay him myself.
 I have no samples. Any medicine that can affect Rheumatism with but a few doses must be drugged to the verge of danger I use no such drugs. It is folly to take them. lou must get the disease out of the blood.
 My remedy does that, even in the most difficult, obstinate cases. No matter how impossible this seems to you, I know it and I take this risk. I have cured tens of thousands of cases in this way, and my records show that 39 out of 40 who get those six bottles pay, and gladly. I have learned that people in general are honest is all I ask If fail I don't expect a penny from you.
 Simply write me postal card or letter. Let me send you an order for the medi- cine: also a book. Take it for a month for it won't harm you anyway. If it cures, pay s5.5O. I leave that entirely to you. Address Dr. Shoop, Box 6S0, Racine. Wis.
 Mild cases, not chronic, are often cured by one or two bottles. At all druggists.

tion called systemic catarrh. It very nearly resembles, and there is really no practical difference, between this condi- ton and the condition known as neuras- then1a, or nervous prostration.
 Peruna will be found to effect an i'm mediate and lasting cure in all cases of systemic catarrh. It acts quickly and benehcially on the diseased mucous membranes, and with healthy mucous membranes the catarrh can no longer exist.
 Perunn True Friend to Women. Mrs. W. B. Krause, wife of the pub fisher of the Port Washington Herald, writes from Port Washington, Wis:
 "Peruna has cured my catarrh and the suffering which had in my back ant bearing-down pains. l am very thank ful for Peruna, as 1t has cured me wher other medicines have failed. l alway will speak good word for Peruna."- Mrs. W. B. Krause. Peruna is equally efficacious in curinI catarrh of the throat as in curing sys temic catarrh or catarrh of the stomach Catarrh is essentially the same wher ever located. Peruna cures catarrh.

A new preparation for the cure or ca tarrh has attracted much attention m LII. past few months and has met with great favor from the medical profession not only because 1t is remarkably successlul in the cure of catarrh, but also because it is not a secret patent incidence any one using 1t knows just what ne ls taA- ing into his system.
 It Is composed of blood root which acts on the blood and mucous membrane. hy- drastin for same purpose to clear tht mucus from head and throat, and red gum of eucalyptus tree to destroy ca tarrhal germs in the blood.
 All of these antiseptlc remedies are combined in the form of a pleasant tasting tablet or lozenge, and are sold by druggists under name of Stuart's Ca tarrh Tablets, and many recent tests in chlorine catarrh cases have established its merit beyond question.
 Dr. Sebring states that he has discard ed inhaers, sprays and washes and de- bends entirely upon Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets in treating nasal catarrh He says: 'I have ha~ patients who had lost the sense of smell entirely, and whose hear ing was also impaired from nasal ca- tarrh. recover completely after a few weeks use of Stuarts Catarrh Tablets. l have been equally successful with the remedy in catarrh Of the throat and catarrh of stomach. l can only explain 1t the principle that catarrh is constitutional disease, and that the an- tiseptc properties in these tablets drive the catarrhal poison completely out of the system
 Dr. Odell says, I have cured many cases of catarrh of stomach in past four months by the use of Stuarts Tablets alone with out the use of any other remedy and without dieting. The tablets are especial ly useful in nasal catarrh and catarrh of the throat, clearing the membranes and overcoming the continual hawking, cough ing and expectorating, so disgusting and annoying to catarrh sufferers.

 "I am glad to call the attention of my friends to Peruna. When that languid, tired feeling comes over you, and your food no longer tastes good, and small annoyances irritate you, Peruna will make you feel like another person inside of a week.
 "I have now used it for three seasons, and find it very valuable and eficaci- ous."-Miss Marie Coats.
 Diseased nerves are traceable directly to poor digestion, and poor digestion is directly traceable to catarrh. With the slightest catarrh of the stomach no one can have good digestion.
 Very few of the many women who have catarrh of the stomach suspect what their real trouble is. They know they belch after meals, have sour stom- ach, a sensation of weight or heaviness, g. fullness, irregular appetite, drowsi- ness, gnawing, empty sensations, occa- sional pain-they all know this; bui they do not know that their trouble is catarrh of the stomach. If they did they would take Peruna.
 Peruna cures catarrh wherever lo' cated. As soon as Peruna removes ca' tarrh from the stomach the digestion becomes good, appetite regular, nerves strong, and trouble vanishes. Peruna strengthens weak nerves, not by tempo rarily stimulating them, but by remov- ing the cause of weak nerves-poor digestion. This Is the only cure that lasts. Remove the cause: Nature will do the rest. Peruna removes the cause.
