CURES CATARRH.
The Brunt a. Parman Drug Co. Will
Furnish The Medicine Free In Every
Case Where They Fail To Cure

Neglect or pessimism we believe is
the greatest enemy the public have to
contend with when applied to the loss
or recovery of health. Practically
every case of consumption might
have been cured if hope had been
maintained and proper treatment
had been resorted TO at the first SYM
ptom of the disease. Until the ad-
vanced stage is reached, consumption
is durable. Catarrh is responsible,
we believe. for every case of con-
sumption 1t is about Catarrh we
want to talk TO you, Incidentally
consumption, since the two are so
closely allied.
We have medicine made from
the prescription of one of the most
successful catarrh specialists known
This medicine has a record of SO per
cent of cures, and we believe il is
positively without equal. We are
so satisfied that we are right, that we
will supply the medicine free i'm every
instance where it is used according to
directions for reasonable length of
time and fails TO cure and give salts
faction in every particular. We want
everyone in DEBORAH TO try this med
icine at our risk. There are no con-
ditions or formality attached TO our
offer. We put the user under no
obligation to us whatever.
The medicine we want you to try
is Rexall MucuTone. 1t is catarrh
remedy that goes direct to the seat
of trouble. 1t is carried by the blood
TO every part of the system. 1t seeks
out and destroys the germs or par
asites which cause Catarrh. 1t puri-
fies and enriches the blood, tones up
the mucu-cells, sooths and heals the
tissues that were rayaged by the cat
arrhal parasite, and brings about a
condition OF health and strength that
prevents the germs of consumption
from ever getting a start. Besides
this, ReXall MucuTone is a wonder
full appetizer, digestive aid and flesh
builder. Its good effects are felt
from the very first dose. 1t is one of
the largest and most satisfactory SELL
ing medicines that we have ever had
anything 10 do with. We know so
much of the great good that 1t has
done that we personally back it up
with our reputation and money, which
fact should be ample guarantee to

Xmas Counsel.

Kings counsel differ from all other
English lawyers. Kings counsel are
appointed by patent from the crown,
on application from the lord chancel-
Tor, and can act as judges Of assize
when named In the commission. They
have in many ways precedence over
other lawyers and rank among them
selves according to seniority. The
robes Of kings counsel are Of SILK
instead OF stuff like those Of ordinary
barrlsters. 1t Is the established rule
Of the profession that no kings counsel
shall conduct any case without the
employment Of n junior counsel.

"The Thief was presented at the
Neenah theatre last evening and a
member of the Crescent staff witneS-
sed the production. The play is a
strong one and is one of the best
things which has been presented in
that city this season.
The cast is exceptionally well bal
anced and contain some of the best
artists which Charles Frohman could
have possibly secured. Two well
known people. David Proctor and
Miss Grace Benham head the cast and
are supported by Maurice Drew, Wy
riley Birch, Miss Elizabeth Lee and
Richard Garrick.
The second act, which is done en-
tirely by MiSsBenham and Mr. Proc
tor, is one that gives them opportun-
ity to exhibit their best ability and
during the entire act the audience sat
spellbound When the climax was
reached the audience broke forth in
an applause which was not satisfied
until the several curtin calls were re-
sponded to.
Will play in DEBORAH on December
10th at the Grand Opera house, prices

down sufficiently to be brought back
to Canon City and locked up.
Where Bavari got the piece of tin
he used to cut his belt. which was
nearly one quarter of an inch in
thickness, is something OF mystery.

ioned it from the lid of syrup

He had fiattened it out and given it a
keen edge with his teeth and by whet-
ting it against the iron bars of the
Jail. 1t was an ugly weapon and Ba-
vari was only waiting a favorable op-
portunity to use it upon his captors.
perhaps to murder the jailor when
carrying to him his meals.
1t is believed Bavari's intentions
were, when leading. the officers to
the river bank, to jump into the water
and try to get away during the ex-
citement which followed, relying upon
the willows, which grew down to the
waters edge, to protect him from the
bullets of the officers On the way
back to Canon City made a solemn re-
solution not to take Bavari out of jail
any more no matter what might hap
pen. The officers say that If they had
to take their choice they would prefer
being locked up in room without de-
tense with hungry Bengal tiger, or
any other fierce animal from the jun
giles of Africa, than with Bavari.
He is a fiend, ravenous beast, ra-
ther than man.

A GREAT SUCCESS

Methodist church Tuesday night the
concluding lecture Of the Y. NJ. C. A
Star entertainment course. is very
generally conceded to have been one
of the very best public speakers heard
in Canon City during the current win
ter
The subject OF Prof. Dagsy's dls-
course was "Anglo-Saxon Grit" and
he handled it with the skill of a mas
ter, commanding the attention Of his
audience from the beginning to the
end. 1t is hardly too much to say that
Pfor. Daggy is one of the most schol-
arly, as well as one of the most pleas
ing speakers that ever came here un-
der the auspices of a lecture bureau.
He possess a grasp and comprehen-
'siyeness of his subject that Is unus-
ual and his eloquent treatment of 1t
talent
There are few young men of finer
mental attainments than Prof. Daggy
and his triumphs on the rostrum. ~
we'll as an instructor in the ranks Of
the higher education, have been q
source of pride and qualification to his
friends. He has that peculiar tact ne
cessary TO entertain and please all
cl, SSoS of pooplc apa /, porsona1 anar-
gy that compels success. He has few
superiors on the American lecture
platform and the management of the
Star course series have reason to fe-
licitate themselves upon their wisdom
in bringing him to Canon City.

Colorado Springs is the envy of all
Colorado because she has General
Palmer the philanthropist.
General Palmer has built her parks
but most OF all her driveways and
bride trails He has bull. fine boule-
wards In all directions. drives up the
canons, over mountains and back
through the Garden of the Gods or
over the plains. Colorado Springs Is
famous for her driveways and thou
sands OF people annually visit Colo
rado Springs moro to taEe these noun
tain drives than for any other rea-
son.
Dozens OF livery stables and hun
dreds of street hacks are kept busy
from early spring to late fall--in fact
throughout the whole year-showing
eastern people over their interesting
drives.
General Palmer has not done II ali
for the city and county have appre-
ciated the great benefits to be derived
from these driveways and have con-
tributed . share
You have heard dozens Of people
here in Canon City sigh for 4 General
Palmer.
II We just had . philanthropist like
General Palmer what couldn't We dot
We cou,l have driveways like Colo
RADIO Springs and such driveways
would open up the natural wonders
the equal Of which no other city has.
Suppose General Palmer were to
come to Canon City and say to our
people that he sees the needs and ad-
vantagcs OF Canon City--that what we
need Is a few good driveways into the
mountains to open up our matchless
and such attractive mountain sights
could be made In time to food the
town with tourists-that we have long
been sleeping on our own gold mines
and that now 10 the time to wake up.
Suppose General Palmer were to
come here and tell US all this which
we we'll know now. and then add that
he would give $4,000 real money to
start the work along II Canon City
people would put up Just l.000-only
a measly thousand to prove local in
terest.
II this were to happen what do you
think the people would dof
They would hold n mass meeting.
They would ring the bells and blow
the whistles. Everybody would favor
It and the money would be raised In
30 minutes. Work would begin on
some OF the famous drives just an

engaged to take charge OF the work.

Good roads should be built between
Canon and Florence. Canon and the
camps, Florence and the camps, from
Canon City and Florence to Beaver
Park and in other directions.
How to Get Started.
All that has been said is not new.
Many have felt the same as the writ
er-that these things are needed and
that we are wasting time and losing
money in the delays.
But no one seems to take the lead.
The commissioners have made but
little use of the convicts-though al
ways willing.
The city council has used them cnly
for cleaning up.
The Merchants association has talk
ed favorably of the drives but hasn't
got anything started
Warden Cleghorn has announced
that he will cooperate In every way
possible and that he has a hundred
men ready for work whenever called
on He can do no more.
The Civic Improvement league has
endorsed the driveways heartily but
has not felt that it is its place to take
the lead.
And so time drags ON and we are
losing that $500 every day.
One Way.
Here is one way things can be start
ed and great good be accomplished.
Let ten men Tor fifteen cen. or TWEEN
It. or any number) be formed into a
Good Roads association or commit
tee and they can unite all interests
in the common cause. These should
be men of influence and undoubted
enthusiasm over read building and
men who will take their time to work
for the public good.
Get the Royal Gorge boulevard con-
structed this winter. paying the neces-
sary cost out of a public subscription
if no better way is found.
Such a committee, If enthusiastic,
could raise the funds in "a hours
With that built and an organization
perfected you couldn't stop the work
ing of the convicts and the public road

a popular clamor for good roads in

A stroke like that would give the
movement such a start that work
would never stop and Canon City
would become famous the world over
for her picturesque mountain drives.
We have no General Palmer.
Better Than Palmer.
No, but we have something better.
We have state law which permits
counties to use convicts on the pub
lie roads.
They can be used at this point where
they can be returned to the peniten-
tiary every night at practically no cost
TO the county.
II the county would arrange to use
them we could count on about 100
conyicts every day throughout the
year.
If properly used the value of this
law 10 this community would be about
$500 per day-s6o. 900 per year.
All 1; would cost this county or this
city to get this $4,000 worth of labor
on our public highways and scenic
driveways would be the cost of a few
guards and the tools.
This Law has been on the books now
about three years
Excepting few cleanup spasms
and tte Skyline work. little advantage
has been taken OF the labor.
Fully 100000 worth Of labor has
been lost to the community.
We have overlooked the best thing
that has ever come our way.
But it may be too late II We do not
take advantage of the law now.
We do not know when legislature
may repeal the law.
And the time may come when other
counties will step In and claim the
convIcts which we have failed to use.
Drives We Could Build.
That the convicts can be used to
excellent advantage in road building is
best proved by the Skyline drive. That
most wonderful driveway, without an
equal in America cost this city lit
tie more than a thousand dollars. II
1t had been done by paid labor 1t would
have cost about sec. O.000-but with paid
labor 1t would never have been built
We have the finest scenery in the
world within a dozen miles of Canon
City.
There is the Royal Gorge road Of
which much has been said. By using
the old state ditch grade q fine road
can be built up through the Royal
Gorge to within a short walk OF the
Hanging Bridge. 1t would cost less
than $1,000 cash and would surpass
any drive out OF Colorado Springs.
