RESULTS TELL.
There Can Be No Doubt About
the Result in Cresco.

Results tell the tale.
All doubt is removed.
The testimony of a Cresco citizen
Can be easily Investigated.
What better proof can be had?
Mrs. g. Meverden, wife of G.. New
erden, furniture dealer and undertake
er, Elm ST., residing on Park street,
says: 1T is impossible to describe in
ordinary words whatI suffered from
pain in my back. Attacks of it chung
to me for years, each succeeding one
more prolonged and more painful than
Its predecessor. At times my back
was so sore that could hardly turn
in bed and the sharp twinges l endur-
ed were indescribable. At night in
bed the very place where one expects
rest was the very place 1 never re-
ceived it, lying awake for hours with
the result that arose in the morn
ing tired and devoid of energy. Dur
ing the day it was torture to go up or
down stairs and some times even
climbing a few steps brought such
pain that was compelled to rest. A
spot about the size of my hand across
my back always felt cold and plainly
proved to me that there was some lat
ent trouble. When Doan's Kidney
Pills came to my notice went to j.
81. Luers Drug Co. 3 store for box
and took them strictly according to
directions. A few doses gave relief
and box brought such undoubted
benefit that bought a second. This
l followed up uutil 1 had used five
boxes; l have ne yer ceased since then
to tell my friends and acquaintances
what Doan's Kidney Pills did for ma.
| hrmly believe that they saved my
life. My back is so much better and
stronger and my general health so
much improved that feel like diff
ferent woman. l am in hopes that my
recommendation Of Doan's Kidney
Pills in this way may be the means of
giving Others who suffer from back
ache and kidney complaint relief such
as obtained. This is my only reas.
on for making the above facts pcblic.

Dora Thorne

The latest dramatic success is Dora
Thorne, which is billed to appear at
the Cresco opera house, Saturday,
Sept. Both. 1t ia made from Bertha
M. Clay'S novel by e. Laurence Lee,
and is the only version like the book.
The title role is taken by Miss Velma
Whitman, an accomplished young
actress, and very beautiful, who is
supported by a carefully selected
company. Dora Thorne is the purest
story ever told, and is very we'll known
to the reading public. 1t tells of a
once happy home, broken up by the
Vaccinations of bad, jealous woman,
and of the sufferings of true wife.
Miss Velma Whitman as Dora Thorne
is given every opportunity to show
what she can do in the way of acting.
A less talented woman would fail |
her attempt to portray the varying
emotions demanded, but in Miss
Whitman's hands the part of Dora
Thorne receives most worthy por-
trayal. Indeed, at the close of the
third act Miss Whitman fairly aston
ishes the audience by the magnificent
burst of dramatic fervor that accom-
panies the denunciatlor of the
scheming Lady Chartaris.

A Sad Accident.

A bad accident happened to John
Numedahl, last Saturday, while
threshing for Chris Reiling, near
Fort Atkinson, on the old Jacob Ealk
place. John was on top of the separ-
ator and signaled the engineer to stop,
and in cleaning off near the drive
pulleyrhis overall leg caught on set
screw which drew his leg down under
the pulley and brose his leg off just
above the ankle. His leg was so
tightly wedged in that it was some
time before he could be freed. Some
men boarded the section mems hand
car and speeded it to Fort Atkinson
for DR.. Horton. DR.. Roome, of

RUSH TO SEE BERNHARDT.
RECORD SALE OF SEATS.
Thousands Stand in Line for Hours
Many Humorous Incidents.

The window sale Of seats for the entire Bern
hardt engagement which begins next Monday
and lasts two weeks, began yesterday at the
Lyric Theatre at a m. and continued till
p. m. At noon the line was so long it extended
far down 42d-st.. and the six policemen were
too few to control the crowd around the three
windows. Reserves were called out.
All records for theatrical sale In this coun-
try were broken. for at 6 o'clock $4,000 IN
rough figures had come in over the ledge and
the mail orders, which have been coming IN
for some days, footed up nearly $4,000. This
is total of S55,OOO and the first performance
is still three days off
Not a seat remains for Camille" that old
standby, and few for anything else. though the
sale will be resumed this morning.
It is announced, however. that extra matnees
will be given, and, on December 49, at the Ca
sino. Bernhard and Miss Anglin will give
benefit performance for the Russian Jews.
It is a curious fact that Bernhardt's previous
engagement in this country was the whole,
unsuccessful. How to explain the phenomenon
staggers even old observers of theatrical affairs
Perhaps the quality Of her present press agent
has something to do with it, but that is by no
means a sufficient explanation.

Theatre along West 42d-st. almost to 8th-ave
