purchased large quantity of emer-
aids, and that he should be closely
watched on landing. Bishop instruct

him if he had anything dutiable to de.

"a Boy Of the Streets

The new play which comes to the
Grand opera house on Saturday, Oct.
9th, is a decided departure In the way
of plays that are presented under this
caption. There are no thrilling eli.
makes in this play. The entire action
from start to finish is natural. The
interest never lags because the story
is continually before the audience.
There is much wholesome comedy and
many homespun remarks that amuse,
Old Squire Dodson, an Indiana farm
err, is the central figure, while Nora,
his niece; Annie Pierce, the hired
girl, and Polly Jenkins, pert coun.
try girl, are all interesting characters.
Seth Sturgis, rustic lover; Robert
Dodson, the old SQuire's son; Jim
Long, a chore boy, are characters that
are lifelike. Many of the scenes are
reproductions of actual happenings in
old Indiana. The third act of the
play is laid in the city Of st. Louis,
Mo-, during the Exposition. Little
Bob Dodson, the old squirrels grandson,
is left an orphan and becomes a boy
of the streets. The old squlre's visit
to the city and his varied experiences
with confidence men, toughs and char
acters that are new to him affords
much merrlment The last act of the
play finds the old squire and Little
Bob back at the old homestead in In
diana, and all ends happily.

natural that one should have some interest

Recognizing this growing disposition on

Nearly forty years ago, Or. Pierce dis
covered that chemically pure glyoerine of
proper strength is a better solvent and
preventative Of tho active medicinal prin-
oiples residing Ia most of our Indigenous
or native medicinal plants than ia alcohol.
Az its use il entirely objectionable,
while alcohol Is well known when used
even In small portions, for protraoted
period, to do lasting injury to the human
system, especially In the case of delicate
women and children, he decided 10 use
chemically pure glyoerine instead Of the
usually employed alcohol Ia the prepara-
ton of his medicines He found that the
glyoerine, besides being entirely harmless,
possesses intrinsic medicinal properties
of great value. It's nutritive properties,
DR.. Pierce believes, far surpass those of
cod-liver oil, emitting II to favorable con-
slderation in all cases of inoipient con-
sumption, especially when It Ia combined

Many years ago, Dr.. Pierce found that
chemically pure glycerine of proper
strength was far better than alcohol both
for extracting and preserving the medicinal
principles residing in our indigenous, or ma.
live, medicinal plants, such as he employs
exclusively in manufacturing his medicines.
Some OF these medicinal roots have, since
Or. Pierce first commenced to use them, adj.
yanced so in price, that they may be cuiti-
vated with great profit by our farmers. This
is especially true OF Golden Seal root, which
enters into both the Doctors Golden Med.
