While every country in the civilized
world has been doing its share to wipe
out the dreaded scourge. Consumption,
none has been more successful In its
research than that little mountainous
nation of Switzerland.
Switzerland has become prominent in
this fight by the production of a remedy
called Sirolin. which Is now being used
throughout Europe by eminent special
lists with remarkable results in treating
Consumption.
Sirolin is the creation of several we'll
known physicians. who have devoted a
great part of their lives to the fighting
II this disease, and judging by the re-
suits 1t has produced, their efforts have
not been in vain.
Sirolin has lately been imported into
this country in large quantities, as its
fame has come across the water in q
very persistent way.

next week in the New National Theater,
where the Aborn organization is having
such a successful season this year.
Verdrs aida" with its charming score,

Verdi always excelled.

offering to Egypt, for which Verdi was
commissioned by the Khedlve of that
country. On Thursday, Friday. Satur-
day nights and at the Saturday matinee,
Wagner's melodious opera "J.ohengrin'

heard in English here and is one or the
most popular works of the great Ger

ACADEMY

There is no reason why fake hypnotic
acts which create laughter and amuse
large audiences should not be presented
in any vaudeville bill, Dut the state
ment that Pelham, the European
hypnotist, who is making much
merriment for Academy audiences this
week, is accompanied by company OF
ten, or by any confederate, Is chal-
lenge to the assurance given by the
Academy management, according to
Manager Harry B. Hearn, that there
will be no Misrepresentation of acts that
appear at that house.
This weeks bill contains the. Lang
dons, with their cleverly staged auto
mobile act; Sutton, Mcintyre. and SUIT
ton, Is another specially staged act that
is unique; the De Michele brothers. In
a musical offering that is artistic and
comical; Richard and Grover. with the
piano and new songs. and some excel
lent motion picture plays.
Next weeks bill! will be every, bit as
good, II not better, promises Manager
Hearn. But the first judgment of its
merits will come from those who see II

WEBSTER PATTERSON

The office of county com
missioner is of vast importance
to the peopIe of the county. The
board of commissioners hold the
purse strings of the county and
they can by extravagant and useless
expenditure of the public funds
drain the county treasury and
increase taxation.
For this important office,
Webster Patterson offers himself
as a republican candidate for the
nomination to fill the unexpired
torn of Commissioner George M g..
Moody. Mr.. Patterson is no
stranger to the people of Elko
county. He was resident of t he
county when the writer came in
1886. Stree then he has been
county clerk and district attorney
and has represented the county
in the lower branch of the state
legislature. In all these positions,
he made an excellent record. Be-
side his official experience. he has
been active as citizen and has a
wide knowledge of the county's
affairs.
His experience as an official and
as Acitizen and his well known
int ity and ability make him
well equipped for service as coun-
ty commissioned. We earnestly
recommend MIN to the thoughtful
consideration Of the republican
voters Of Elko county. If nomin-
ated and elected he will give the
county faithful service.
