ASHAMLET'
Mimic Actor Will Attempt Serious
Role at Broadway Theater
This Evening.

New York, Jan. 15.-Please don't
laugh. This is serious matter. Ed
die Foy is going to play Hamlet at a
professional matinee at the Casino
this afternoon. And Eddie is in ear
nest.
Since his representation of the Ham
let burlesque in "Mr. Hamlet of Broad
way" at the Casino all of his profes-
sional friends have been joking him
amout it, particularly because he
dresses the part seriously. Eddie has
been telling them all that he is Just as
good Hamlet as ever pounded the
ties, To prove it he intends to play
the part just as Shakespeare wrote it.
Whether or not Foy considers this
joke, or If way down at the bottom
OF this comedy heart he wants to go to
the mat with the Bard of Avon, re-
mains to be seen. Some OF his closest
friends declare that Foy became In
fiicted with the tragedy bug at the
time Dave Warfleld stepped from the
ridiculous to the sublime, and that Foy
really wants to see what others think
OF him as serious performer. Maude
Raymond will play the part of Ophelia
as 1t was intended to be played.

Good Advice Regarding the Prevention
of Coughs and Colds.

|
If people would only properly fortify
and strengthen their system, about
SO per cent of coughs, colds and pneu.
monia might be avoided. These trou
bles are simple the result of weakness
which produces a catarrhal condition
of the mucous membrane, which is as
an internal skin of the body. When
this is weakened, it becomes infected
with germs which are carried through
the system by the blood. These para
sites attack and break these delicate
tissues and set up a soreness which
produce what is in reality an external
scrofula.
The only thing that will cure coughs
ard colds and prevent pneumonia is a
medication which is absorbed and car
ried by the blood so that the diseased
membrane is disinfscted, clesnses
soothed, and healed.
We have a remedy which we honest.
ly believe invaluable and unsurpassed
for the prevention and cure Of coughs.
colds and all catarrhal conditions. It
is the prescription of a famous physi.
clan, who has an enviable reputation
of 80 years of cures gained through
the use Of this medicine. We promise
to either effect cure in every case
or make no charge for the medicine.
We urge everybody in Hattiesburg
who has need Of such a medicine to
try Rexall Mucu-Tone.
1t stands to reason that we could
not afford to make such statements
and give our own personal guarantee
to this remedy If we were not abso-
lutely positive that we could sub
stantiate our claim in every particu-
lar, and we see no reason why any
one should hesitate to accent our
offer and try it. We have two sizes
of Rexall Mucu-Tone. Prices SOC and
$1.O0. Sometimes a SOC bottle Is suf-
ficient for a cure. AS a general thing,
the most chronic case is cured with |
an average Of three large bottles. |
Remember, the medicine will cost you |

cry particular. The Owl Drug Store. |

CONTEST POLITICS RIFE;
CONTESTANTS WORK HARD

With an interest second only to that
of state or national political cam.
paign, the great voting contest, veri.
table battle of the ballots, being con.
Quoted by The News in twenty-five
| counties, is now commanding as much
/ interest locally as the contest waged
between the two great political par
ties throughout the country during
election time.
The large number of contestants and
their thousands of friends are as much
interested over the standing of each
contestant as the friends of either
Taft or Bryan could possibly have
been. Not day passes that friends
of some of the contestants do not send
In subscription, pay up bill or urge
another friend to do so in order to
help the contestant in whom they are
interested.
In the big contest there are num-
Der who are close to the $4,000 mark,
and one has overstepped even this
mark by a small margin. Miss Lula
Prayter is the leader, and has 54,917
votes to her credit, she is closely fol-
lowed by Miss Ruth Daughdrill and
Mrs. E. W. Williams of Braxton. There
are many others that are gaining
steadily and by this time next week
may be the leaders of the contest.
In district one Miss Lula Prayter is
leader with Miss Daughdrill a close
second and Mrs. Louise May closely
following in third place.
In district two Miss Mamie Draugh-
on leads and Miss Frazier Mat
thews as second. Following in third
place is Miss Eureaka Seal and Mrs.
D. S. Henley.
Mrs. S. A. Dobbins, of Richton, leads
in district three, and is seconded by
Miss Alice Covington, of Virgins,
and Miss Carter Bradford has third
place. Others in district three look
as though they rere sleeping, but
you can never tell, as some of them
may be holding back a number of |
votes and are waiting for the final
day to roll around before they poll |
all the votes they now have laid
away.
Miss Ruby Easterling, with 1871 |
votes, leads in district four, and is Sec
onded by Miss Lucille Davis; Miss
Verde Selma holds third place
District five is headed by Miss Pearl
Rhyme, Mrs. Meenzinge holds second
place and Miss Rebecca Brook is In
third place.
District six has had more surprises
during the past week than any of the
other districts, for three new contest. |
ants have entered the race and all
have good many votes to their
credit. Mrs. E. w. Williams has the
highest number OF votes and leads the
district, and is followed by Miss
Sophie Sutton in second place and
Miss Mary Curley in third place.
