Are Patent
Medicines Frauds?

We are often asked the above
question, and Our answer has in
variabiy been that no medicine
that gives sati factory results
could b. fraudulent. We could
not afford to sell fraudulent medi-
cines. Our business depends on
pleased custouers-in fact any
business docs. Therefore, we
would take an enormous risk did
we not fulfil every promise made
our customers. We are very care
full of what we guarantee, and
when we do guarantee an article
we must know it. pretty we'll
what it contains and how it is
made. We have in mind the Rex
all line of remedies, particularly
Rexall Mucu-Tone, of which we
are selling large quantities at this
time of the year. Mucu-Tone is
one article that we can recommend
over our counter apd know that
ninety-eight per cent. of its pur-
chasers are going to be benefited
and will return to our store
pleased customers. Mucu-Tone
is a positive cure for internal
scrofula or what is commonly
called Catarrh. 1t is without a
doubt the peer of all tonics for
any one who is suffering from a
rundown condition, can't work,
feels constantly tired or suffering
from the more plainly described
symptoms of Catarrh-such as
stopping Of the nose, cold in the
head or bad cough
1t must be remembered that Ca
tarrh is not confined to the nose
and throat 1t usually starts
there, but it leads more often to
serious trouble, particularly the
wasting of tissues, as in the case
OF little. Miss Dillon, of Albany.
Here is a letter from her father:
My little girl had catarrh SO
badly that the disease had begun
to eat into the cartilage of the
nose. Snuff, and instruments
failed to do more than give tenn
porary relief. | saw the adver-
tisements of Rexall Mucu- Tone,
but | could not believe that any,
thing taken in the stomach could
cure the sore membranes of the
nose. However, | took advan-
tage of your free trial offer and
my girl began taking your remedy
according to directions. | want
to say right here that Mucu-Tone
IS certainly the greatest medical
discovery of the times, and to
thank you fer the liberal offer
that first induced me to give it a
trial. Muco-Tone has cured my
daughters catarrh completely.
The discharge has stopped alto
gether, and her breath is as sweet
as can be. Again thanking you,
MATT. DILLON, "a N. Swan ST.,
Albany, N. Y"
We are selling a large trial bot
tie of Mucu-Tone for fifty cents
on the famous Rexall guarantee
of your money back if you are not
satisfied. We promise hat one
bottle will put flesh on your bones
and bring new vitality to your
system.

The lane Is long, some one has said, that

And Fate, though tickle, often gives an
other nance to men;
And Casey smiled-his rugged face no long

The pitcher who had started all the trouble

But In that throng of thousands there was
not a single fan
Who thought that Midwife had a chance,
and with the setting sun
Their hopes sank low-the rival team was

The last half of the ninth came round,
with no change in the score,
But when the first man up hit safe the

The din increased-the echo of ten thousand

When the pitcher hit the second and gave
four balls to the third.

A triple meant the highest niche in Mud

But here the rally ended and the gloom was
deep as night,
When No. a fouled to catcher and 8 flew out

A dismal groan in chorus came-a scowl
was on each face
When Casey walked up, bat in hand, and
slowly took his place;
His bloodshot eyes in fury gleamed-his
teeth were elenehed in hate,
He gave his cap a vicious hook and pounded
on the plate.
But fame is feeting as the wind and glory
fades away
There were no wild and Yoolly cheers-no

A REASON

], The United Drug
Company, manufac-
turers of the Rexall
Remedies, for whose
preparations we are
agents in this city, make
200 remedies, one for
each i'll. Each one is
especially prepared to
cure one disease, and
that only. his is an
age of specialists. You
don't contract with a
plumber to build your
whole house, do you?
Why should you contract
with one proprietary
medicine to cure all your
troubles?
Oftentimes you run
across a building con-
tractor who has a sepa-
rate plumbing depart
ment, his own plastering
department, and 50 on,
all ~ which doyetail To-
gether and build the
house. This is just what
the United Drug Com
pany is doing for you
in the medicine line.
They have cut down
profits; they manufac-
ture Rexall Remedies for
over 1000 retail drug
gists. These druggists
are the only intermediate
profit that stand between
The United Drug Com
pany and the patient.
Gould the United Drug
Company, of which we
are a member, afford to
make one poor medicine
in this line? Does not
common sense tell you
that one poor medicine
would ruin the sale of
the other 100 prepara-
tons? If you bought a
Rexall preparation and it
didn't do for you what
we claim it will, would
you buy another one of
our articles? We believe
not. Therefore each
preparation must be good
lit is good. We who
are in the drug business
know the formulas of
these Rexall prepara-
tons. We believe in
them so implicitly that
we stand back of them,
with our guarantee to
refund you your money
if they do not benefit
you.

ALGECIRAS, April 2-To-day's sitting
of the conference on Moroccan reforms,
though primarily devoted to the framing
of the protocol, assumed Importance ow-
ing TO the various delegates moving reso-
lutions directing the attention of the Sui
tan of Morocco to the necessity of internal
reforms.

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.


ROME, April 2.-Princess Elvira, daugh-
ter of Don Carlos, the Spanish pretender,
who came under public notice some time
ago when she eloped from her fathers
house with an Italian painter named
Folchi is penniless. The couple went to
the United States where they remained
for several months, later returning in
cognito and living in strict seclusion un-
der an assumed name at San Gervasio,
near Barcelona, Spain.
Their stay in the United States was un-
happy, for it was at a New York hotel
that the va1ise containing the Princess
scanty supply of money was stolen. In
order to facilitate the police search for
the money they had to make known their
real name, and as this brought unwel-
come publicity upon them they fled to
Washington, where Folchi obtained work
as a decorator and the Princess made
bonnets.
They tried to keep up their incognito,
but the milliner for whom the Princess
worked learned that he had royalty
among his workers and was not slow to
put his knowledge to advantage. Soon
the shop was besieged with women who
insisted that their headgear should be
made by royal hands. This additional
publicity was more than they could
stand, so they came back to Europe and
the Princess again unavailingly asked fol
aid of her father, who had previously
written to her that he would never see
her again, except in convent after she
had taken the veil
Don Carlos has repeatedly refused te
let her have a. share of the property lef
by her mother. the Princess Marguerite
of Parma. Although several years have
elapsed since the flight of the Princess

the more pity as THE Heroic Stubbs,"

at Terrys. was an absolute and entire
failure. However, the comedian is said
to have really good adaptation by II.

his first and second.
DRAMATIZING "THE BONDSMAN.,
One can only suppose that Hall Caine
is fond of losing money. After the run
it may be remembered. the author an
nounced that despite the fact that 1t
was an acknowledged success, he was
something like $4,000 out of pocket by
the transaction Of producing it. He
explained this novel situation by stat
ing that the time he had devoted to
writing his play getting local color
for it at Monte Carlo and elsewhere and
conducting rehearsals both in this
country and America, would, if utilized
in producing a new romance, have
brought in at least $4,000 more than he
actually received in royalties. So it is
somewhat surprising TO learn that the
novelist has just undertaken to make
a stage adaptation of yet another Of
his novels This is "The Bondsman''
ana it seems that Hall Caine, who is in
the Engadine, is even now at work on
q play drawn from that moving tale
and that this adaptation will be pro-
duced at Drury Lane early in Septem-
Der next, and probably in the United
States simultaneously. Further it is
announced that although the scenes OF
the original story will be changed for
stage purposes, one of the chief situa-
tions will, as in the book, take place
/ in a sulphur mine, and that Hall Caine
! is just about to start for Sicily for the
! purpose of studying all the minute de-
tails of the sulphur workings.
In other words IL is to be the expert
ment of THE Prodigal Son" all over
again, or rather of the prodigaI Mr.
Caine who must be uncommonly well
provided with this worlds goods If he
| can afford to lose $4,000 every year OF
two-or rather leave that sum un-
| earned-in this eminently princely
! fashion Perhaps, however, the author
! has been able to dictate terms, this
time, stiff enough to make playwritine
-
| even for him; or perhaps, on the other
/ hand that story Of the lost $4,000 was
just a little joke that Caine made al
the expense of an interviewer and thai
he never dreamt for moment would
be taken seriouslyi

able anti-Jewish risings in Russia
are unfounded. The dispatch says:
The Government is convinced that
there is an impossibility of any such
disorders occurring, as the most ener-
getic measures, have been taken to pre-
vent them. Yesterday, by order of
Count de Witte. president of the Coun-
ell, the Minister of the Interior sent
a circular to all the Governors of
provinces where there is Jewish popu-
lation to take, from the very first, the
most energetic measures for stopping
disorders; to defend with troops the
lives and property of the Jewish pOpu
lation. The Governors were informed
that if disorders occurred the local au-
thorities would be held responsible and
brought to Justice.
