FIRE DESTROYS RESIDENCE.
Home of Street Car Men osa Decatur Stree
 fs Turned.


 A fire at o'clock yesterday afternoon almost completely destroyed the roof of the residence at North Decatur Street. occu- pied by ". L. Lipford and W. A. Penton. street car men and their families.
 While the larger portion of the furnish ings were saved. the occupants each sustain ed damage to the extent of about $1o0. Mir. Lipford carried $500 insurance. while Mir Penton was without insurance.
 The one-story frame residence is the prop erty of T. J. Toole. who carried sLsoo in- surance. His damage is estimated at be- tween $500 and ss0o.
 The fire had its oriEini in the roof of the front portion, os the house close to chimney. When discovered the flames had gained great headway .and 1t was several minutes before an alarm was sent in to the fire department. The firemen poured water on the burning roof and soon had the flames under control. The sidewalks were badly damaged and the water flooded the floor of the residence.
 . It is believed that the chimney near tho point where the fire originated was defeet- i've and that sparks from the grate went in to the chimney and found their way onto the roof.
 Mir. Penton and his family stayed last night in a rear room of the residence which had escaped serious damage Mir Lipford removed his family to the residence of friends in Cloverdaie.

RrxALL .ss' HAla rcMlc

The famous Rexall "eS" Hair Tonic is composed in chief of Resorcin, Beta Naphthoi and Pilocarpin.
 Resorcin is one of the latest and most effective germ-killers discovered by a science, and in connection with Beta Naphthol, which is both germicidai and antiseptic, a combination is formed which not only destroys the germs which rob the hair of its nutriment, but creates a clean and healthy condition of the scalp, which prevents the lodgment and development of new germs.
 Pilocarpin is a well-known agent for restoring the hair to its natural color, where the loss of color has been due to a dis ease of the scalp. It Is not a coloring matter or dye--it pro. duces its effect by stimulating the scalp and hair follicles to health and active life.
 This co m bination n of cur atives mixed with alcohol as a stimulant, perfects the most ef- fective remedy for hair and seaip troubles known to-day.

srurl pYssrpsIA rAELrTs

The remarkable success of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets is largely due to the new and sue cessfnI method of manufacture, whereby the well known prop critics of Bismuth Subnitrate and Pepsin have been combined with carminitives and other agents.
 Bismuth Subnitrate and Pep sin are recognized by the entire medical profession as specifics for acute indigestion or chronic dyspepsia.
 The Pepsin used Is rnanufac- tured under a new process s which develops its greatest eff ficiency. Pcpsin not only sup plies to the digestive machinery one of the most important ele- ments of the digestive fluid, but it seems to exert a tonic influ- ence upon the glands which supply all the other elements.
 The carminitives add prop critics which promptly relieve pains caused by undigested food.
 Thecombination of the whole makes a remedy absolutely in valuable to any man or woman suffering from dyspepsia--and not only remedy, but q eH,s which works by gradually re- building and stimulating t h C glands which perform the d. gestiye functions. Package, 25c.

 A new idea in Cough Syrups.
 This preparation owes its cf- ficiency to the presence of Wild Cherry, Vinegar Squills. Bone set, Horehound and Syrup.
 All of these have been known for a hundred years as remedies for coughs and hoarsencss.
 In Rexall Cherry Juice Cough Syrup, all of these remedies have been combined by a pro- cess of manufacture tn at has blended them into a perfect me- dicinal harmony whereby the characteristics of each support and reinforce the others.
 The pathological properties of each ingredient does its own particular work in easing the in- famed membranes, looscning the phlegm and setting up q condition of health in the bron. chiai and nasal passages.
 One spoonful will relieve the infamed membranes and tempo rarily stop the cough. One bot tie will work a cure. It is ex- ceedingly pleasant to the taste children like 1t. Per Bottle, 25c.
