We desire to call the attention Of
our readers to the fact that a few
druggists in this locality. on account
of cut prices on drugs, have adopted
the practice of trying To sell something

For example, when you ask for d."

allow any druggist or drug clerk II

THE KING DOES NOT RULE

Another Series.

London is the battle ground of i'm
perialism and progressiveness. in the
opinion of Professor Jerome Raymond,
as expressed in his lecture last even
ing at the high school auditorium, the
concluding lecture of the course on
European capitals and their moral sig,
nificance. He pointed out that Lon
don's Imperialism was prompted by the
discovery of the new world. and the
resulting thirst for dominion.
Speaking of London's cosmopolitan
population, DR.. Raymond brought out
the fact that there are more Irish in
London than in Dublin, more Scotch
people than in Edinburg, and more Ro-
man Catholics than in Rome. Greater
London is governed by the lord mayor
and 2S mayors, the latter correspond
ing to the aldermen of the American
cities. The lord mayor receives the
same salary as the president of the
United States. The noted Tower was
the subject of some interesting stories
by DR.. Raymond. This building has
been used as a castle, the royal resi-
dence, state prison, a place of doom.
and at present is used as an arsenal.
King Does Not Rule.

The course of lectures which was
concluded with that of last evening
has been in every way a success. At

of about $50 will remain in the treas
ury 10 start plans for another similar
series next season The lectures have
been well illustrated with stereopticor
views of the cities discussed.

Rooney attempted, whirled his bullliar
