RHEU MATISM Is CURABLE
If URIC-O IS USED
ALL OTHER TREATMENTS FAIL

Is it the unhealthy foods we eat or
the rapid pace in which we live that
cause such an endless amount of Rhcu-
matism nowadays? The disease has GER
tainly reached an alarming point, as
nine-tenths of the adult population in
this country are more or less afflicted
with some form of this maddening dis
ease. Recent investigation has proven
the fact that rheumatism is a blood
disease, therefore, many bright chem
lists and physicians have had good
ground to work upon, and they have
succeeded in compounding remedy,
which, if used as advised cannot fail to
drive and eliminate from the blood and
muscles all traces of mans greatest
evil, Poison Rheumatic Acid. URIC-O
is the name of this remedy. 1t is
liquid treatment, made and designed to
cure all forms of rheumatism and good
for no other disease. There is no poi
son, no alcohol or whiskey entered into
the composition of URICO. 1t is SIM
ply powerful dissolvent of Uric Acid
and other deposits which seriously
affect the kidneys.
URIC-O is sold at S1.00 per bottle by
druggists generally or can be obtained
by addressing the SMITH DRUG COM

speak from eXperience.)
Newspaper advertising is the most
desirable of all advertising tor at least
three reasons:
First-It is the cheapest advertis-
ing known. This is to say, it reaches
more people in proportion to the
money expended than any other kind
of advertising.
Second-It is the quickest in re
suits.
Third-A newspaper is the most
natural or appropriate place for ad-
vertising.
more important reason why news
paper advertising is best of all is be-
cause it produces the quickest results.
One reason for this is because the
people have been educated by the
newspapers to prompt action in re
spending to an advertisement A very
large proportion of the advertising in
the newspapers, notably the retail
store and small classified advertising,
must be responded to promptly on
account of its nature, and this, as
say, has educated the people to quick
action, and, besides, this is an age
where time is the most valuable of all
commodities, especially to those who
are managing an advertising cam
paign. The greatest period of time
between the beginning of an adver-
tising campaign and that happy, or
perhaps unhappy occasion when the
results are figured up, the greater the

A JANUARY BOOKING.
Grace Cameron. Dainty Prima Donna, Com.
ing in Little Dolly Dimples."

One of the January bookings for the
Grand is the charming little prima
donna, Grace Cameron in Little
Dolly Dimples . This is what the
Dayton, Ohio, Herald has to say OF
her:
Grace Cameron made decided hit
in Dayton in Little Dolly Dimples.
She opened a return engagement at
the National Theatre Thursday and
was given very cordial reception at
both the matinee and night perform
ances.
The entire cast is composed of first
class people, and the chorus is one of
the best heard at the National this
season. The individual work of
number of characters is far above the
ordinary and the applause to every
song hit called for encore after encore.
Miss Cameron is a dainty little
prima donna, with an original style
in her playing which cannot help but
please the audience. Her work in the
first act when she plays the part CT
Little Dolly Dimples. the country
maiden, cannot be excelled. and in
this role makes a hit in both her
Naughty Kid song and also in her
song. Good Bye Old Home.
In the second act Miss Cameron
plays the part of French maid and
her efforts in is part are very pleas
ing.
Al Lawrence. the mimic. is the big
funny spot in the cast and AL has the
audience laughing from the rise of the
first curtain to the end of the last act.
He is one of those funny men who
cannot be initiated and his line of
comedy this year is entirely new. and
to say he makes big hit with the
audience would be treating the matter
lightly. He is allowed few minutes
with the audience and in his imita-
ton of people at various stages of life,
presents something very original in
the line of entertainment.
Phoebe Cardownie wins applause as
the dancing girl, showing the favorite
dances of all nations, and Eva Spears.
as the human flute. holds her audience
spellbound while she renders several
musical selections, and with her
