CAUSES DEBILITY.
Here Are Facts Backed Up BY q
Strong Guarantee.

Debility is caused by catarrh. In
our opinion, a person free from Ca
tarrh was never troubled with De
bility. Debility can never be cured
by medicine not designed to cure Ca
tarrh We positively guarantee to
cure Catarrh, and thus cure Debility.
In every case where we fail to effect
cure; we will not charge cent for
the medicine employed during the
trial. Now, surely no one should hes
itate to believe us or to put our claim
to a practical test under such condi-
tons. We take all the risk; no one
else can lose anything by the trans
action.
We make these statements and this
offer because we know and have time
and again proved that Rexall Muco-
Tone will cure Catarrh. 1t is design
ed for that one particular purpose. 1t
is not cure-all prescribed to cure
every disease that flesh is heir to. 1t
is specific. Rexall Muco-Tone is
absorbed in the stomach and carried
by the blood until it penetrates ev-
cry part of the body, acting as an an
tiseptic, disinfecting, cleansing, sooth-
ing and healing agent. 1t rids the
system of all germ and poisonous
matter, purifies and enriches the
blood, rebuilds injured tissues, cleans
es and invigorates the muco-cells,
neutralizes the acids of the body,
stops mucus discharge, tones up the
entire system, promotes nutrition, in
creases body weight, and brings about
feeling of healthfulness that is
lasting.
We have Rexall Muco-Tone in two
sizes. Prices so cents and $1.00. We
urge you to try a bottle on our guar
antee. Bratton Drug Co., Spring and
Oak street stores.

Local interest in the worlds cham
pionship baseball contest was percep-
tibly on the wane today when the
crowd began turning toward Bennett
park. Yesterday the possibility of a
Detroit victory that would have made
the series tie brought out the BAN
ner attendance of Detroit's busy peo-
pie, but today. the possibility of the
visitors winning the final and decid-

three victories standing to the credit
of Chicago to only one for Detroit,
the crowds at the ball park today,
was still comparatively small.

LAIN TALK
FROM THE HILLS
HARRISON HEIGHTS

history and BETTER times are in
store. What are you doing with the
opportunity NOW? Anyone with a
head for business knows that values
are constantly and rapidly going up.
The tax values of the city of Pales-
tine were increased almost A MIL
LION DOLLARS last year. Actual
values increased more than that.
What share had you in this increase
of wealth? Perhaps no desirable land
in the city limits is so cheap as lots
on Harrison Heights-$100 for a lot
that would be ample for home build
ing purposes. But even if you do not
wish to build, where could you put
500 to more advantage? Buy small
lots on the addition and forget it,
for two or three years. You will not
have chance to forget it longer, for
buyers will be hunting you up and Of
fering you prices well in advance of
the ones you paid. But, you say, why
don't the owners hold it if it is so
valuable That is what they have
done for fifteen or twenty years-and
now they are taking the profits which
will be many times over the original
cost. Even so they can sell below
what the land is really worth. They
are satisfied with 600 or 700 per cent
on the investment. And now is the
time YOU come in. Opportunity is
knocking at your door NOW. Do you
hear it?

Have you seen the landscape gar
dening the "City of Palestine" is do
ing on Harrison Heights?" Now
read the following editorial from the
Herald, October Ia, 1908:
"a comparatively young man stat
ed this morning in the presence of
Herald man that the corner now oc-
cupied by the Gregg-Link building,
and one of the most conspicuous cor
ners in the city, with the lot adJein-
ing it, were offered to him at price
of $500. That was not many years
ago. But today that corner is worth
several thousand dollars. Surely
great changes have taken place in this
good old town within few years.
Not SO many years ago a citizen
bought a whole square bounded by
prominent streets south of the rail-
road, paying therefor $500. A few
months ago the same citizen bought
about one-tenth of one lot, merely a
strip of ground he needed for some
purpose, and paid therefor as much
as the whole block had cost him ae
few years ago. There should be
lesson in this to young men. Land
values are going to continue to climb,
and now is the best time to make in
vestments. Holdings in real estate
in this city and section are about the
best investments that can be made"
You say to yourself. 81 wish l had
been here years ago and could have
picked out such bargains" Well, you
are here NOW; the town is growing
faster than it has ever done in. its

eide the championship of the world is
at an end. The bunting will again

in succession have the Cubs carried
away the national honors. Three
years ago the two Chicago teams, the
White Sox of the American League
and the Cubs, the leaders in the Ma
tional League, played the worlds Sc
sries. and the White SoX won. For the
past two seasons the Tigers of Detroit
and the Cubs have mixed and in both
instances the National League style
of baseball has proven superior to the
American system of play and the Cubs
have won.

HOME FIRM WILL
BUILD new CHURCH

The bids for building of the new
Methodist Episcopal church were
opened yesterday at Kennedy's Hall
and contract awarded to A. Ritterbush
& Son, our pioneer contractors. There
were six bids ranging from $15,25O to
So, ,999, which latter was accepted being
Mr.. Ritterbush's bid.
The building is to be built o. Hebron
pressed brick and Portage Entry sand
stone trimmings. When complete the
building will cost nearly $1,000, and
will be the most convenient and finest
church edifice in Southern North
Dakota.
The business center and growing
town of Oakes needs such building
and it will be great credit to our city.
Such church has been long felt need
in our town and we hope every citizen
will help to erect this beautiful struc-
ture which will stand as a beacon of
hope and a haven of rest. This is a
right move for a greater and better
Cakes.
Operations will be commenced i'm
mediately and work pushed to speedy
completion.

Burk's Big Uncle Toms Cabin Company Under
Mammoth Canvas.

Will exhibit at Oakes, Aug II.
Among the many tented organiza-
tions in America, that have become
famous, the Ringling Bros and Barnum
& Bailey Shows, are conceded to be the
largest and most popular circuses.
But the largest dramatic organization
exhibiting under canvas is "Burk's
Big Spectacular Production of Uncle
Toms Cabin" This mammoth amuse-
ment enterprise is acknowledged Bar
mum of all "Uncle Tom Cabin Compan-
ies." Like the big circuses they travel in
their own cars and require a special
train of their own to transport their
paraphernalia from one city to another.
This organization embraces more men,
women and children, more horses,
ponies, donkeys and Siberian blood
hounds, more chariots, floats, tableaux-
wagons etc, than any other similar ex-
hibition in America. The parade which
may be seen daily on the principal
streets, wherever this mighty show
exhibits is the largest of any dramatic
exhibition in the world. The immortal
play 'Uncle Toms Cabin" is Mrs.
Harriet Beecher Stoves masterpiece
of dramatic fiction. The management
of Burk's big company has spared nc
expense in securing metropolitan
cast to properly produce this grand ole
drama. In combination with the dram.
attic talent the management presents 6
contingent of high class vaudeville
artists consisting of merry-makers
jubilee singers, dancers, wire walkers
hoop rollers, etc. These artists are in.
troduced during the action of the play
and always create the greatest salts
faction. Fred. R. Pitchers Famous
Concert Band and Symphony Orchestrs
is also one of the many strong features
of this up-to-date modern American
amusement organizations, which is com
ing in all its vast entirety and will ex
hibit at Oakes, Tuesday, August II

pavilion theater seating 2, 500 people.

HANSBROUCH NOT
TO QUIT POLITICS

Grand Forks, Aug. 3.-There is much
speculation as to what Senator H. C.
Hansbrough intends to do. Several
intimate friends say that he will abide
by the decision of the voters at the
June primary election and will make no
attempt to secure his reelection in the
legislature next winter. He has been
very guarded in his statements since
the primary election, but says he will
'tabide by the law"
By citizens generally this is taken to
mean that he will make no effort to
secure his reelection, but by others
the senator's declaration is taken to
mean that he will abide by the law if
it is law. If it is unconstitutional, it
is not law that must be observed.
It is known that several of the senator's
leading supporters are anxious to have
him stay in the race in case the primary
election provision relating tators
should be declared unconstitutional y
Already there is much talk about the
senatorial race Of two years hence.
McCumber, the Mckenzie candidate,
will have the fight of his life. That he
has not strengthened his cause by his
attitu lie in the primary election is gen.
orally conceded. The fate of Little in
the primary election is pointed out as a
sort of warning to McCumber as to
what happens to the avowed Mckenzie
senatorial candidate in North Dakota.
Since the primary election McCumber
has been boosting the candidacy of
NJ. N. johnson, candidate for United
States senator in opposition to Thomas
F. Marshall. johnson comes from
Nelson county and his success would
not only help the Mckenzie cause but
would also put a quietus on the ambi-
tion of Congressman AISLE J. Gronna,
who wanted to be United States SEN
ator this year and was only pulled out
of the race by the combined efforts Of
Mckenzie, Little and other leaders.
Hansbrough is not willing to quit
politics. He has his eye on Nc Cumber's s
seat, in case he will have to relinquisf
his own for two years. He is not will.
ing to take kindly to McCumber's
schemes and several interesting com
plications are promised this fall. Ir
case Hansbrough decides that he has
no possible show he will retire grace
fully and lay plans to regain the place
in two years. AS an anti-McKenzit
candidate he would be stronger in two
years than he is now, his friends figure
They also believe that he will be abl,
to create better impression among
the insurgents and perhaps win tn
support of that faction.
