Concerning the announcement

be closed down in the event of
Mr.. Bryan's election, the Ne
braskan made the following com
ment in one Of his Missouri
speeches last Saturday: "a
press dispatch announces this
morning that a Pennsylvania
manufacturer of separators has
given notice to his employees that
the factory will close down
for an extended period if [ am
elected. This is the most dis
couraging threat that 1 have vet

COWS would go giving milk under
a Democratic administration as
well as under a Republican adj
ministration, but if as a result
OF my election the COWS are
going to dry up in November
and not become fresh again for
four years, it will really be a
serious matter. There must be
mistake about this separ-
ator business. The men NAV
be manufacturing the separator
the Republican party has been
using; for it has been using a
separator that has separated the
cream from the milk and it has
given the cream to the monopo-
lies and the skinned milk to
the rest of the people.

INTERESTING FACTS
The Owl Drug Store Offers to Cure
Catarrh. The Medicine Costs
Nothing If They Fail.

When a medicine effects cure in SO
per cent. of cases, and when we offer
that medicine on our own personal
guarantee that it will cost the user
nothing if it does not cure Catarrh, it
is only reasonable that people should
believe us, or at least put our claims
to practical test when we take all
the risk. These are facts which we
want the people of Hattiesburg to sub
stantiate. We want them to try Rex
all Mucu-Tone, a medicine prepared
from a prescription of a physician
whose specially was Catarrh, and who
has a record of thirty years of cures
to his credit.
We sell more bottles and receive
more good reports about Rexall Mucu-
Tone than we do all other catarrh
remedies sold in our store. and if more
people only knew what a thoroughly
dependable remedy Rexall Mucu-Tone
is, it would be the only catarrh medi-
cine we would have any demand for.
Rexall Mucu-Tone is quickly alb
absorbed and carried by the blood I'M
til it thoroughly disinfects and cleanses
the entire mucous membranous tract,
destroys and removes the parasites
which injure and destroy the men,
branous tissues, soothes and heals the
irritation and soreness, stops the mu-
cous discharge, and builds up strong,
healthy tissue, relieves the blood and

vibrates with healthy activity. In
comparatively short time there is

We urge you to try Mucu-Tone, be-
ginning a treatment today. At any
time you are not satisfied, simply come

turn your money without question or

mess for the performances.
AS in all past seasons, the Sun

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted ordi-

pneumonia and chronic catarrh have
their origin in &C ommon cold. Con-

the cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of the
germs that would not otherwise have
