Mr.. Woodruff in the same role he Is
now playing. But now II has been
given a musical setting of limited
scope. has been broadened into farcical
action and made more diverting than
before. Paul Rubens has written some
very tuneful music for it, 1t is not a
musical comedy Of the usual order, but
rather a musical farce. The singing
is exceedingly attractive.
The story is a sort of travesty on
art faddists. A rich young man, ig-
norant of art. is in despair because he
fails to interest a young woman OF
artistic temperament. When he starts
out to get a smattering of art he con-
ceives the idea of appropriating the
work of three unappreciated artists,
paying them for the privilege of sign
ing their products and posing as
genius who has let no one know OF his
accomplishments. The working out OF
this plot gives plenty of latitude for
spirited dialogue. delightful satire and
lively action. Mr.. Woodruff plays the
Genius" with alternating audacity and
embarrassment. His good looks and
striking dress make him particularly
engaging figure in the masquerade Of
extravaganza.
The model-not the traditional mod
ell at all, but a sort of protege, pal and
partner in the studio of the unrecog-
nized painter, composer and sculptor
is most charmingly embodied and act
ed by Miss Madge Kennedy.

Wiley'S "VindicatiOn."

President Taft's 'vindication' OF
DR.. Wiley will be searched in vain
for a single word of praise for the
valiant work that official has done for
the people. Nor does the president
have a single word of censure for the
notorious McCabe, whose methods OF
running the food bureau and every
body in it. Dr.. Wiley included, as
founded the members of the Moss
investigating committee. After what
this committee discovered nobody
knew better than Mr.. Taft himself
that he would not dare to mete out
to Dr.. Wiley the "condign punish
ment" recommended by Attorney
General Wickersham.
The Wiley "vindication served no
other purpose than to afford the
President a favorable opportunity to
play politics on the eve of his depar-
ture into the hostile west. Dr.. Wiley
had already been vindicated, thous-
and times over in the minds of the

ONE MILLION DOLLARS FOR A
GOOD STOMACH.
This Offer Should be a Warning to
Every man and Woman.

The newspapers and medical jour-
mails recently have had much to say
relative to a famous millionaire's
offer of million dollars for new
stomach.
This great multi-millionaire wass
too busy to worry about the condi-
tion of his stomach. He allowed his
dyspepsia to run from bad to worse
until in the end it became incurable.
His misfortune serves as a warning
to others.
Every one who suffers from dys-
pepsia for a few years will give every
thing he owns for new stomach.
Dyspepsia is commonly caused by
an abnormal state of the gastric
juices, or by lack Of stone in the
walls of the stomach. The result is
that the stomach loses it's power to
digest food.
We are now able to supply certain
missing elements-to help to restore
to the gastric juices their digestive
power, and to aid in making the
stomach strong and we'll.
We know that the Rexall Dyspep-
STA Tablets are a most dependable
remedy for disordered stomachs, in
Digestion, and dyspepsia.
We want you to try them and will
return your money if you are not
more than satisfied with the result.
Three sizes, rs cents, SO cents, and
l$1.00. Remember, you can obtain
Rexall Remedies in this community
only at our store-The Rexall Store.

CHANGING HORSES.

Now that the Taft administration
has found itself in the middle of a
troubled political stream it proposes
to change horses. The tariff and
reciprocity horse, as means of car
rying Mr.. Taft into another term as
President, is to be abandoned, and in
it's place will be substituted the anti
trust horse. The Presidents friends,
and the President himself, are about
ready to admit that the people will
not endorse his tariff program, so he
plans now to begin shouting at the
trusts in an effort to divert attention
from his efforts as a tariff reformer.
That this change is to be made in
policy is indicated by Attorney Gen
eral Wickersham, who has let it be
known that he intends to get after
some of the big corporations.
That President Taft's opposition to
the trusts will be about as sincere as
his advocacy of tariff revision down.
ward is indicated by his Detroit
speech, in which he opposed amend
ment to the anti trust law.

TO THEIR FACES.

Should presidential speech dill
fer in tone and temper from d presl-
dental message?
Mr.. Taft was severely criticised
two years ago because at Wlnona,
Minnesota, he invited the progressive
republicans Of the west to join the
democratic party His troubles with
that element in his party have IN
creased ever since, prlnclpally LOT Tue
reason that he has continued to ad-
dress them in language that cannot
fail to be construed as offensive.
In his Hamilton, Mass, speech
August 26 last he made this charge
against democrats and republicans IN
congress:
Il am very sorry to say, however,
that having pursued a purely states
manlike course with reference to rec
iprocity, they did play politics OF the
most irresponsible character in re-
spect to three tariff bills which, by
uniting with certain republicans IN
the Senate, they were able to pass.
Never in the history OF the
government have important public
interests been dealt with in such a
light-hearted way, with such abso-
lutte ignorance of the effect of legis-
lation and with such willingness to
sacrifice business interests to polltl-
cal exigencies."
To charge a great nonpart1san ma
jority of both houses of congress not
only with playing politics but with
ignorance and destructive demagogy
is something new in presidential ut
terance, but at Grand Rapids, Mich,
September 81, he went even further.
Speaking of the bill reducing monop-
oily taxes upon the peoples clothing,
he said it was welded together with
BLACKSMITH tools; that it was a
hybrid and that it's authors were
without information of any kind.
Finally, at Peoria, on September
%, he passed one more judgment
upon the progressives of his party in
language as follows:
1--WE can depend upon the people
to recognize substance in progress
rather than that which is represented
by proposed legislation and platform
declarations that are for the purpose
not of being put into force and into
law to accomplish real reform, but
are made for the purpose of cam
palgn uses only
Thus the President of the United
States in three recent speeches has
charged the progressive republicans
of the west with "playing politics.
with absolute ignorance" with de-
structve demagogy, with being
"blacksmiths" and "hybrids" and
with writing platforms falsely for
campaign purposes only.
@a No other President ever used such
expressions even toward opponents
in another party, but Mr.. Taft levels
these shafts at men in his own party
whom he is now visiting. Is he real
ly a candidate for denomination and
reelection? If so, what do progress
sive republicans think of the first
presidential standpatter who ever
abused them to their faces?-St.
Louis Republic.

OUR OWN PRESIDENTS
DEFENSE.

1t is impossible to hold the lead
ers of the republican party anywhere
to announced action. No policy was
ever more clearly set forth than that
the tariff should be revised schedule
by schedule Roosevelt advocated it
Taft was for it and everywhere with
few exceptions the leaders OF the par
tv endorsed it, 1t was insisted that
that was the only perfect way to
make "scientitic" tariff. The dem
cratic leaders also generally indOrsed
the plan, but as soon as they under
took to execute it, Taft and all his
followers abandoned it and insisted
that in the making of "scientilc
tariff-wh which was the only kind OF a
tariff that would not bring general
disaster-every phase of it must be
taken into consideration at the same
time and that the lowering of the
tariff on wool and the steel products
that the farmers used, was wholly
"unscientifc' and simply "playing
politics."
1t is now claimed that congress can
not touch wool without throwing in
to confusion the whole system, which
must be continued, and each section
of the country will support tar 1T
on things that another section wants
under a bargain that a tariff shall be
imposed on other things as return
for the votes cast.
Taft's defense of his vetoes, if they
indicate any policy at all, it is to re-
turn to the old log rolling system
which reached it's fullness in the
Payne-Aldrich bill. The leaders OF
the republican party do not intend to
depart in any manner from the sys-
tenn which they have created. The
only hope is to turn them out of office
and replace them with men who are
not walking in a rut worn so deep
that they cannot get out Of it.-St.
Joe Observer.

TO HIM THAT HATH.

Since the first of the year, sugar
has advanced something more than
SO per cent. According to the calcu-
lations of Wall street brokers, the
sugar trust profits to the extent of
$4O,UUO,0O0 as result.
Under decisions of United States
courts, the trust was obliged to pay
the government several million dol
lars because Of wholesale dishonesty.
Of course, that was unpleasant for
the trust management.
But, by the tariff schedules and the
short sugar-beet crop, the robbers
have been furnished conditions to Off
set the ncommoding requirements of
the law.

TAFT NOW A DIR. JEKYLL.

ION the tariff the President now
occupies the position of a DR.. Jekyll
and Mr.. HYDE" declares Oscar Un-
derwood, democratic leader of the
house. when tariff legislation is
up the protected interests of America
are always able to convert him into a
Mr.. Hyde, standing for all the indie
feasible iniquities of high protec-
tive tariff. AS soon as the tariff leg
!slation is out of the way, and the
big interests have got what they
want, and the Presidents genial
smile radiates from the back end of
Pullman car, he becomes a DR..
Jekyll, with the gentlemanly inten-
ton of relieving the American people
from the indefensible burdens of tax
alton that his former acts put upon
them"
