read and many are familiar with the
captivating story. 1t deals with the
adventures of a daring American
and Princess and unfolds a narrative
of "A Love Behind a Throne" The
play is in five acts and mounted with
a lavish equipment of scenic effects
and costumes, and interpreted by a
cast of players that are seldom seen

DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.

To cold-blooded observer the
democratic party has two opportun-
tiles to elect its candidate next time.
The first is on a campaign which,
ignoring financial considerations al
together, will insist on a strong an
ti-protectionist platform.
The second Is a platform which
will subordinate all issues to the
great overshadowing issue of the So
called Roosevelt policy of prosecut-
ing, regulating, or even abolishing,
the trusts, and stopping centraiiza-
ton of power in Wall street.
Mr. Taft is already beginning TO
make mistakes. The more he talks
the deeper he is getting himself tan
gled That he will not make good
on the policy that caused Roosevelt
to be a popular hero in the north,
and even liked a little in the south

tunity.- Beaumont Journal

MILLIONS OF LIVES LOST.
An Awful Toll Collected by Con-
sumption. Many Unnecessary
Deaths from this Disease.

If people could only understand
that systematic catarrh is an inter-
nal disease that external applications
cannot cure. they woul4 not need to
be warned so often about this NAL
ady, which, when neglected, paves
the wcy oftentimes for colsump-
ton at the cost of millions Of lives
every year. Yet catarrh may be
cured, if the right treatment is en-
ployed.
Catarrh is caused by a general
diseased state of the system which
leads commonly to annoying and
perhaps serious local conditions,
which may prove a fertile breeding
ground for germs of consumption.
External remedies gives but temper
airy ease.
The only way to successfully treat
, catarrh is by employing medicine
which is absorbed and carried by
the blood to all parts of the system,
so that the mucous membrane or in
ternal lining of the body is toned up
and made capable of resisting the
infection of consumption and other
diseases.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescription of a physician who
for thirty years studied and made
catarrh a specially, and whose record
was a patient restored to health in
followed as prescribed. That remedy
is Rexall Mucu-Tone. w are so
positive that it will completely over
Z come catarrh in all its various forms,
whether acute or chronic, that we
promise to return every penny paid
/ us for the medicine in every case

We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our recommendation and
guarantee. We are right here where
you live, and you do not contract any
obligation or risk VIII! ~ try Rex
all Mucu-Tone on a guarantee. We
have ReXall Mucul one in two sizes,
30 cents and S1.00. Very often the
taking of one 50-cent bottle is suf-
ficient to make marked impression
upon the case. OF course in chronic
cases a longer treatment is neces-
sary. The average in such instances
is three $1.00 bottles. Remember you

There Is nothing RS new or rs

The upstate republican leaders In

In New York city liz imminent. The
Parsons attack serves the three-fold
purpose of teaching the country pol

But the Parsons palaver is not
there is quasi alliance between
Tammany and the republican up
state leaders. Tammany wants the
city, and the upstate leaders want
control of the state. AS a rule each
bunch gets what ii wants. The politi-
cal control of the state of New York
is big thing, and the political con-
troll of the city of New York is a
big thing. Why should not the re-
publican country politicians and the
Tammany democratic city politicians
be satisfied?
What this country needs is city,
state and national government that
will be business-like, economical
and effective. The republican New
York city platform. whatever may
be thought of the organization and
the ticket, has one plank that will
meet with universal approval among
good citizens. 1t is to the effect that
government is a thing to live under,
not on. Too many politicians make
living by politics. We want in this
country the patriotism of peace,
statesmen instead of politicians, and

/ ton conducted with prudence as the
good business man conducts his
business or the good father of a
family conducts the affairs of his
