"The Girl Question"

Fresh and pretty, funny and tune
full, snappy and dashing' the new
music play, "The Girl Question"
which will be presented at the Ly-
ceum for 8 days on Thursday after
noon, is beyond all question the best
of the series of La Sale Theatre pro-
ductions, including "The Time, The
Place and The Girl
Although "The Girl Question" has
been running in Chicago since the
18th of August, it is still playing to
capacity, while the company which
will be seen here has a cast which S
in every way its equal and in several
instances it's superior.
The characters in THE Girl Ques
ton" are every day men and women
who are pictured with such fidelity
to life, who are so natural and SO
human thai they create an instant
sympathy with an audience which
makes them appreciative and alb
sorbingly interested from the rise to
the fall of the curtain.

SOME GOOD ADVICE.
$2324.S5

Here is the advice to young men
OF James Patten, the Chicago wheat
king, who is now looming up as a
power in cotton: For young man
intending to start out in life and
adopting a business career the first
essential is that of good habits. The
modern employer as rule soon
drops a young man from his pay roll
who does not possess this requisite.
He should perform the duties requir-
ed of him, no matter how menial a
position, as a second essential, with
the utmost willingness. If he should
see any Improvement in the line of
his duties he should suggest the
same to his employer, for nothing
pleases the employer so much as
the fact that his employee is work
ing fol- his interests, and young
man following out this line as rule
is advanced when opportunity Of

THE PROOF THAT PERRYsBuRG

What could furnish stronger evil
dence of the efficiency Of any remedy

people testify that Doan's Kidney
Pills cure permanently.

undoubtedly the merit of this

Mrs. Caroline Walters, Sixth and
Cherry Streets, Perrysburg, Ohio,
says: II cannot say too much in
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills after
having so satisfactory an experience
with them. My kidneys bothered me
for about a year and | was subject
to sharp pains in my back, often
shooting. through my shoulders and
into the back of my neck. When the
attacks came on, | could hardly arise
from chair. Dizzy spells and
headaches were common and was
miserable in every way. had heard
and read great deal about Doan's
Kidney Pills being good for such
! troubles and this induced me to try
them. This remedy acted prompt.
ly and in short time my back was
entirely free from pain and lameness
Doans Kidney Pills have so greatly
improved my condition that l now
feel like different person" Estate
ment given July 20, 1906.)
Mrs. Walters confirmed the above
testimonial on May II, 1909, by say

oILINe A KANSAS ROAD.

Some time ago a mile of country
road south of Sedan, Kan, was oiled
under the direction of the Sedan
Commercial club. Fifty dollars was
paid for this, and it was all raised
by public subscription. The oil had
to be hauled so far that the cost of
hauling was almost equal to the
price of the oil. Nevertheless the
total cost of dragging the road and
cf soaking it in was only $50.
The road was oiled in May and is
yet in almost as good condition as 1t
was when finished. 1t is well round
ed up, with good drainage, and the
oil has made it solid, something like
asphalt pavement. The road is the
talk of the farmers. They will go a
mile or two out of their way just to
use 1t in driving to Sedan.-Prairie

THE STATE REVENUES

1t is pleasant to note State Audi
tor Fullington's opinion to the effect
that this state does not need an in
crease in its revenues. That is the
position occupied by secretary of
state, Colonel Thompson, and these
two men know as well, If not better
than any two men in the state, what
il needs. 1t is fortunate that the
state has two such prominent of
ficers, who have some idea of econ
omy and some regard for the tax
payers.
There must be line drawn on
the clamor of appropriations. The
Establishments that are flourished be-
fore Legislature by self-seeking lob
bies, for appropriation for all MAN
ners of schemes should be stoutly re-
sisted. We have quite enough of ma
terial glory and sentimental gorge
BUSINESS to do us for several years.
What we need most now is more in
telligent judgment, more economic
purpose, more unselfishness, and the
bringing up of our moral ideals
abreast of our material prosperity.
And we want to bring our politics
up to the standard of pure and un-
selfish public service, where the lob
by is secuted and the public vel
fare alone controls. We are not do
ing that by adding another million
to the revenues. In fact, we can do
it better by taking off a million.

NEW MOTOR TRAIN

Commencing Monday morning, the

The report also comes that, should

WHY SALVES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMA
They Clog the Pores-only Liquid
Can Reach the Inner Skin.

Cdn hedCn Lne inner SkiHs
Since the old-fashioned theory of
curing eczema through the blood has
been given UP by scientists, many
different salves have been tried for
skin diseases But 1t has been found
that these salves only clog the pores
and can not penetrate to the inner
skin below the epidermis where the
eczema germs are lodged.
Thistle quality of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous,
success of the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil of wintergreen as
compounded in ID. d. d. Prescription.
After ten years of cure after cure, the
worlds leading skin specialists have
accepted this as the true eczema cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend d. d. D. Prescription at
S1.00 a bottle, but for the benefit of
those who have never tried the pre-
scription, we arranged with the d.
D. d. Laboratories of Chicago, for
a special large trial bottle at 25 cents
on a special offer now. This first
bottle ought to convince every suf-
ferer, and, at any rate, it will surely
take away the itch at once.

Among many distinctive features
of Eugene Walters paid in Full"
which comes to the Valentine Thea
tire Friday and Saturday, November
18th and 18th, that make it the ex-
ceptional play of the time, is the
character of the hero who is anything
but heroic. Heroism is not lack
ing in the comedy drama, however.
Others possess it, men and women,
but there is not spark OF it in the
leading man. He is Joe Brooks, a
clerk, who, in resentment at not be-
ing advanced in salary, steals from
his employer, and when found out
tries to shift the blame on his young
wife. He carries viciousness and
cowardice to the very finish, unre.
lieved by one spark Of heroism, un-
less it be when, face to face with
his employer, Capt. Williams, he
openly expresses his opinion of him
and his methods. No character in
contemporaneous drama has been so
widely discussed as this one. In
fact, paid in Full" has attracted a
greater degree of attention from
those who view the stage as vital
factor in modern life than any play
that has attempted to portray exist
ing conditions.

Power Grant Vetoed.

Washington, Jan. 15.-President
Roosevelt today sent a special mes
sage to congress, vetoing bill for
the construction OF dam across
the James river, in Missouri, for
creating electric power. The
reasons for vetoing are that it grants
valuable privilege, by nature mon
opolistic, and does not contain the
essentials to protect the public in
terests. The president quotes from
a letter he wrote on March 10, 1908,
to the senate committee on COM
'mercc, saying Through lack OF
foresight, we have formed the habit
Of granting without compensation,
valuable rights, amounting TO
monopolies on navigable streams
and the repurchase of water rights
carelessly given away has been COM
menced in the east. Before long
that will be necessary in the west
also. There should be no rights
of perpetuity, but only long enough
to allow the business to be con-
Quoted profitably. A reasonable
cnaTBe SnOuld be made Tor valuable
rights are received from the gov
eminent"
"To give away without condi-
lions this one of the greatest re-
sources" continues the message, lis
an act of folly and If guilty of it our
children will be forced to pay an
annual return upon capitalization
based upon high prices. They will
find themselves face to face with
powerful interests, intrenched be-
hind vested rights and before that
time they may and probably will
become consolidated interests con-
trolling from great financial centers,
debating terms upon which citi-
Zens can conduct business or earn a
livelihood, and not amenable to
wholesome public opinion"
