TEXAS"

Texas" the new play of ranch life, which comes to Poli's Monday afternoon and evening. might be called a Remington living picture. inasmuch as the types shown are identical with those fin the artists famous paintings and drawings. The story of the play shows the trials of the frontiersman, the self-sacrifcing spirit of the noble women of the plains. and the undying honesty and rugged strength of character of the rough uncouth cowpunchers and he- roes of the roundup. A play with out a villain would be like a cock tail without a cherry. and a "greaser" named Pasquale Is the person who is responsible for most of the trouble. He accuses Jack DaIlam. the hero. of being a cattle thief and circumstances seem to point that way. The love theme Is unusually entertaining without being supercharged with sentimentalism- DalIam loves and Is beloved by little Texas West, the daughter Of his em- loyer- The cast presenting the piece is headed by Mabel Dixey and Charles D. Coburn. supported by a company of metropolitan players. whose worth in the dramatic world Is well known Prices are s. 35. 50 and 75 cents; matinee s cents Telephone 11s. Seats are nov o7 sale.

AN EVERYDAY STRUGGLE.

Any work that is a constant strain on the back is bound to hurt the kid neys. The lifting, digging and plant ing of farm work, the constant bend ing over desk or sitting at sewing machine, working for hours on jarrng, jolting wagons or railroad trains: the stopped positions and the reaching, pulling and heavy lifting of hundred different trades-all these are hard on the back and must wear. weaken and injure the kidneys, because the kid neys are in the very part of the back that feels the strain. When the kid neys are sick, every exertion sends sharp, stinging pain through the back or loins, and you are weary and tired all the time. a.
 Doan's Kidney Pills, have cured thou sands of working men and wOmen- have given them strong backs for their daily work. Doan's Kidney Pills help the kidneys to do their duty-to elm- mate the liquid poisons from the blood and to send pure, health-giving blood to the muscles and organs. We would sincerely advise every man or woman whose work is hard on the back to take an occasional dose of Doan's Kid ney Pills. It will keep the kidneys we'll and the back strong. and keeping the kidneys we'll is half the task of keeping the body well.

New York, Nov. 2i.-It is tho generally
accepted belief among those best IN
formed. and IL is not denied by those d.
rcctly interested. that the concessions
granted by the king OF Belgium to Ed
ward r. Aldrich and his associates OF the
American Congo company foreshadow
merger of this concern with the United
States Rubber company or AZ least
working agreement between them.
1t Is the accepted theory that the two
big corporations are working together In
the whole matter and that tho purpose Is
n magnfication of the present powerful
rubber trust and placing IL in position
in which A. will absolutely control the
rubber business OF the world and will be
able. like tho other big trusts TO main
tain prices at its pleasure out Of all rela-
tion TO rho original cost Of material and
manufacture.
