Miss Barrymore may possess the talent
that has been associated by tradition with
the families whose union she so happily
typifies, but, like her distinguished uncle.
she has accumulated a following that will
have nothing to do with the serious things
% life at the heater She is the actor
OF polite females; standing or sitting In
pastures suggested by the artist most in
vogue. talking always in epigrams, never
euli, and never getting far from the plane
on which society folks live In smart novels
and similarly smart plays. Here and there
some dramatist has let us see a glimpse
OF the sordidness Of the existence of these
ultra-fashionable folks! into whose charmed
circle men with only uillions back OF them
sigh in vain to break. But neither uncle
or niece is ever presented in a play
like Iris" or The Walls Of Jericho and
probably 1t Is as we'll. mr.. Drew might
be impressive in such a drama, but one
trembles to think of the fair Ethel getting
very far from shore on such a sea. In
her nature there is no booming OF great
waves rolling in from the deep waters of
life TO break on the shores of experience.
Hers is the plaoidiy of the pond, whose
shallow waters are easily stirred by the
passing breezes, but productive only of
ripples. Gust to amuse, she fills her
mission admirably. but she offers no en-
couragement to those. who persist In at
tributing thoughtful achievement as an
element in success on the stage.

The dispensers of poslam, a new
skin discovery, ask that notice be
given that no one is urged to pur-
chase it without first obtaining an ex-
perimental package. Those who have
tried it will find that the fifty-cent
box, on sale at Coughlin's Pharmacy,
and all drug stores, is sufficient to

where the surface affected is not too

plication. 1t will also cure acne,
letter, blotches, scaly scalp, hives,
BARRIERS and every other form of itch,
including itching feet. Being flesh
colored and containing no grease, the
presence of poslam on exposed sur
faces, such as the face and hands, is
not perceptible. Water and'soap can
not be used in connection with it, as
these irritate and prolong skin
troubles, sometimes even Causing
them.

THEY INJuRE CHILDREN
Ordinary ,carthartics and Pills and
Harsh Physic Cause Distressing
Complaints.

You cannot be over-careful in the Sc
lection of medicine for children. Only
the very gen:lest bowel medicine should
ever be given. Ordinary pills, cathartics
and purgatives are too apt to do more
harm than good. They cause gripping,
nausea and other distressing after-ef-
fccts that are frequently health de-
stroying and a life-lasting- annoyance.
We personally recommend and guar
antee Rcxall Orderlies as the safest
and most dependable remedy for con-
stipation and associate bower disorders.
We have such absolute faith in the su
prene virtues of this remedy that we
sell it on Our guarantee of money back
In every instance where it fails to give
entire satisfaction, and we urge all in
need Of such medicine to try 1t at our
risk.
Rexall Orderlies contain an entirely
new ingredient which is odoriess, taste
less and colorless. 1t embraces all the
best qualities of the soothing. laxative,
Strengthening and healing remedial &C
tive principles of the best known intes-
final regulator tonics.
Rexal Orderlies are extremely pleas
ant to take, are particularly prompt
and agreeable in action, may be taken
at any time day or night; do not cause
diarrhoea. nausea, gripping. excessive
looseness, or other undesirable effects.
They have very natural action upon
the glands and organs with which they
come in contact, act as a positive and
re2ulative tonic upon the relax. dry
muscular coat of the bowel, remove IL
ritation, dryness and soreness, over
come weakness, and tone and streng-
then the nerves and muscles, and re-
store the bowels and associate organs
to more vigorous and healthy activity
Rexall Orderlies not only cure con-
stipation. but they remove the cause
of this ailnent. They also overcome
the necessity OF constantly taking Lax
atives to keep the bowels in normal
condition.
There is really no similar medicine so
good as ReSall Orderlies, especially for
children, aged and delicate persons
They are prepared in tablet form and
in two sizes of packages; IL tablets, Zoe.
and So tablets, 25c. John Coughlin,

"UncIe Toms Cabin" Feb. 10.

One of the prettieSt and truest-to-na-

cotton picking scene in the ever popular
production of Stetson's Uncle Tom $

Opera house on next Wednesday after
noon and evening. 1t is a true fac
smile of an ideal home on the Red
River, the setting having been con-
structel and painted from actual pho
tographs, secured by Manager Leon
Washburn. Mr.. Washburn is most
eAacting exen in the most minor de-
tails of production. Where another
manager would be contented with pa
pier mache plants, Manager Washburn
must have the real article. He en-
gagged the services of a chemist who
finally produced a shellac by the use
of which the cotton plant may be pre-
served in it's natural state indefinitely.
The several hundred plants used in the
StetSon production are exactly as they
