A Tennessee Romance.

The romantic play, IA romance Of
Com Hollow" which has been before
the public more than nine successful
seasons, tells a picturesque story of
Southern love and intrigue IN a way
thot appeals to an audience. The
story is enhanced by scenic and me-
chanical effects that give it local col
or and life and add a welcome sensa-
tion. Among the scenes are that of a
burglary, where the midnight me-
chanic plies his calling under cover Of
night; a ponderous cotton press In op-
3eratioL; a duel in q mountain glen,
and the Historical steamb boat race be-
tween the Rob-rt E. Lee and the
Natchez on the Mississippi at night,
with the beats lighted up and under
steam. A view of the river wood
landing, with colored boys and girls
in twilight darkeY revels, songs and
dances, is one Of the prettiest effects
OF the play. An excellent quartette,
really great troupe Of dancers, and a
strong company are the features OF

We are always glad to print in the

Not SO very long ago P. A. Clemmer,
one ofour mostenterprising druggists,
succeeded in getting tbe DIR. Howard
Co., to allow him to sell their Specific

pepsia at half price, as an introduc-
tory offer.
Such was his confidence in the rem
edy that he personally guaranteed ev-
cry package of the Specific that he has
sold, ard agree to refund the money
if 1T did not cure. His faith was we'll
founded, for out of the hundreds Of
packages OF packages he has sold, only
one has been returned.
/ P. A. Clemmer in commenting up
on the great success that followed the
adoption Of his suggestion, not only
in Cresco, but but in other places,
showed the PLAIN DEALER letter
from D. F. Davis, of Barre, one OF the
best known druggists In V rmont.
Mr.. Davis wrote: "Thc success of DR..
Howard's Specific in our city is won-
derful. l receive d my first consign-
ment the last of July, and since then
have sold hundreds Of packages, and
cannot get it fast enough to keep my
customers supplied. I have not had
a single bottle returned, although !
have guaranteed every one, and have
heard nothing but praise of is merits.
This is a record unsurpassed by any
remedy that I have sold in the TWEEN
ty-tiiye years / have been in the drug
business. I"
P. A. Clemmer )es not know how
how much longer he will be able to
continue selling DR.. Howard's = Specific

pepsia at half price, but will as long
as his present supply holds out. Some
Of his customers have said they would
