Occupying an unique position among
bands, the "Kilties'' possess unques-
toned ability added to the finish that
comes only from long association to-
gether, and those who have heard the
band this year say that they have new
er played so well before. Accompany
ing this organization is a male choir
of sixteen voices, a troupe of Scotch
Highland dancers from Dundee, Scot
land, bagpipe soloists and a giant drum
major over seven feet in height.
Much enthusiasm is being shown
over the coming of the Kilties, and
since this splendid concert band is as
sisted in their entertainment by SO
many exceptional novelties, the inter-
national popularity of the Kilties is
never wondered at by those who have
an opportunity of hearing them.

FDFCKLES
Don't Hide Them With Veil; Re-
move Them With the New Drug.

DOnT HIDE Inem WIFI ven; Re-
move Them With the New Drug.
An eminent skin specialist recently
discovered a new drug, othine-double
strength, which is so uniformly sue
cessful in removing freckles and giving
a clear, beautiful complexion that it
is sold by any first class druggist in
Topeka under an absolute guarantee
to refund the money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil; get an ounce of othine and re-
move them. Even the first nights use
will show wonderful improvement,
some of the lighter freckles vanishing
entirely. It is absolutely harmless,
and cannot injure the most tender
skin.
Be sure to ask any first class drug
gist in Topeka for the double strength
othine; it is this that is sold on the
money back guarantee.
