brought to town and so telephoned to
one of our men at the park and asked
that all of the effects of the actors be
brought to Topeka. Everything was
loaded on q car and brought TO the
city and as we had no way to tell to
whom they belonged they were unload
ed on the sidewalk so that they could
select their OWL. property.
MY brother nor myself were not at
the park at the time the message ar
rived or We would not have brought
their goods to the city without more
implicit directions. The employe who
loaded them exceeded his authority but
did so only as an accommodation to
them. I yet believe that Mr.. Baldwin
will pay all of the salaries due as he
is a man of some standing in the theat-
rical world and I do not think that
he will care to have story of this
nature circulated on him.
1T seems to be the common impress
sion that the management of Vinewood
park and the Street Car company is
one and the same, but this Is mistake
and the Street Car company was in
no way interested in the park, the thea
ter at the park. or the performers and
their troubles. While I am the secre-
tary and treasurer of the Street Rail

how to run the state, came to the foot

was Rose himself

OPEN PUBLICITY THE BEST
GETH PHNTY OS MERTT.

When the maker of medicine, sold
through druggists for family use, takes
bis patients fully into his confidence by
frankly and fearlessly publishing broad
cast as well as on its bottle wrappers,
Q full list of all its ingredients In plain
English, this action on his part is the
best possible evidence that he is not
afraid to have the search light Of inves-
tigation turned full upon his formula
and that it will bear the fullest scrutiny
and the most thorough investigation.
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription for the
cure OF the weaknesses, periodical pains
and functional arrangements of the or
gans distinctly feminine, is the only medi-
cine put up for sale through druggists for
woman's special use, the maker of which
Is not afraid to take his patients into
his full confidence by such open and
honest publicity
A glance at the published ingredients
on each bottle wrapper, will show that it
is made wholly from native, American,
medicinal roots, that it contains no poi
sonous or habit-forming drugs, no mar
cotlcs and no alcohol-pure, triplc-reiined
glycerine. Of proper strength being used
instead Of the commonly employed aco-
hol, both for extracting and preserving
the active medicinal properties found in
the roots of the American forest plants
employed. 1t is the only medicine for
wOmen's peculiar diseases. sold by drug
gists, that does not contain a large per-
centage OF alcohol, which is in the long
run so harmful to woman's delicate. nerv-
Gus system. Now. glycerine is perfectly
harmless. and serves valuable purpose
by possessing intrinsic value all its own,
and besides it enhances the curative
effect of the other ingredients entering
into the "Favorite Prescription"
Some of the ablest medical writer's and
teachers endorse these views and praise
all the several ingredients of which VA
vorite Prescription" is composed rec
ommending them for the cure Of tho
very same diseases for which this world
famed medicine is advised. No other
medicine for women has any such pro
fesSionnL endorsement-worth more than
any number of ordinary testimonials. If
interested, send name and address to DIR.
