May Sound Extravaeant, But Investi-
 gation Will Convince You.
 Negligence and indifference to the drainage organs (kidneys, liver, bowels. etc.) are the causes of disease. The poisonous, worn out tissues are permitted to accumulate thereby pre- venting the organs from resisting dis ease
 The best remedy is to keep the sys- tenn under the influence of BIOPLASM (Bower)-a strictly ethical, non-stim- ulating, non poisonous preparation, which drives out all disturbing ele nents and enables the starving nerve cells to receive normal nutrition.
 While under the influence of BIO- PLASM (Bower) infection can get no hold. because the persistent guardians (the white cells, of the blood) destroy the body poisons and compel their elimination through the bowels.
 One physician wrote "Bioplasm (BoWer) is better than quaranttne-it's the best kind of health insurance"
 If you suffer from Mal-Nutrition, Indigestion, Anemia, Neurasthenia, MelanchOlia, Weak Vitality, you should try the Bioplasm treatment.
 BIOPLASM (Bower) has been sold exclusively on doctors prescription for many years. However, arrangements have been made with the Lee & Os- good Co, of this city and other repu- table druggists to supply the public di- rect. BIOPLASM (BOwer) is sold in ta blet form, at $1.00 per bottle, on guarantee of satisfaction or money back.

TOO BUSY TO SEE
 AEROPLANE FLIGHT.
Telephone Girls Crowded With Calls All at Once When Martin Appeared.

Not one of the telephone girls saw the aeroplane on Wednesday morning. While the machine was soaring over the city the board was full of calls at the station, and all the operators were as busy as bees in connecting up the people who wanted to let others know the joyful tidings that the aeroplane was flying at last So that people whose calls around 9 o'clock yesterday morning were not answered promptly will understand that it was not be- cause the telephone girls were hang ing out of the windows and gazing slyward but because they had a big pile of work in front of them for a few minutes.

 VAUDEVILL EPERFORMANC
Antics of Tmateur Trapeze Artists

The antics of a score or more of urchins on the vaudeville stage Tues day evening in one of th3 intervals of the programme was funn;eT than comedy; their bOyish stunts extracted more laughs from the crowd in the grandstand than anything provided in the Midway. It followed the Jrapeze act. Two or three small lai5 wan dered up to the stage and bought they'd try the bar It was too high for even their most frantic jumps and so they summoned help, in U e shape of more boys. They made human stepladders and the embryo acrobats got their hands on the trape7e That was as far as some of them could get They would try to swing themselves over the bar and many who had the muscle had a mighty hard time get ting their feet past their hands It made lots of fun for the crowd. one chap tried the stunt he'd seen the performers do--he hung down from his knees and then slipped his toes nto the side ropes and went a step farther. He went too far He couldn't get back to the bar and he cou dn't very well drop on his neck His plight was funny and the crowd roare9 Finally his comrades made life net and he came down safely.
 All the time the boys were ffocking to the stage. Some of them had some good stunts and soon there were three or four at once on the trapeze Then more adventurous spirits would shin up the poles and one youngster made q feature slide down guy rope. Just at this point one of the troupe ap- peared and the show was over.
