youth, had closed and argument be-
gun. The case viii reach the jury hy
night. W. y. Coleman, his son Joe
and W II. Stephens are jointly in

ment by Postmaster Boiling II. Jones

RHEUMATIC PAINS
PROMPTLY DISAPPEAR
Relief Comes After Taking
Few Doses of Croxone

II is needless to suffer with
rheumatism. and be all crippled
up and oent out OF shape with its
heart wrenching pains, when you
can avoid it,
Rheumatism comes from weak,
inactive kidneys, that fail to filter
from the blood the poisonous
waste matter and uric acid, and
the only way to overcome 1t is to
remove the cause.
CroxOne does this because IL
neutrailzes and dissolves the poi
sonOus substances and uric acid
that lodge in the joints and mus
Cles, to scratch and irritate and
cause rheumatism and cleans out
and strengthens the stopped up,
inactive kidneys, so they can filter
the poison from the blood, and
drive 1t on and out of the system.
CrOXone is a truly remarkable
medicine for rheumatism, kidney
troubles and bladder disorders
You win find it differs from other
remedies. There is nothing else
just like it. II matters not how
old you are or how long you have
suffered. it is practically impossi-
bile to take it without results. Re
lief follows the first few doses.
and you will be surprised how
quickly all misery and suffering
viii end.
An original package Of Croxone
costs but a trife and all druggists
are authorized to sell it on a posi-
tive money-back guarantee. Three
doses a day for few days is oft
en- all that is ever needed to over
come the worst bdCkache or uri-
nary disorders

A Real WOman'S PLAY

The normal being Graves for happi-
ness and in THE Price" which will
appear here at the opera house Mon
day, Dec. %, is built the pure and
beautiful idea that we must get our
happiness from the natural sources and
not at the expense of others.
The moral lesson taught in this broad
and interesting theme is one that will
live in the hearts Of the mother,
daughter, father and son. There are
many among us into whose lives the
theme has entered in one phase or
another and the subject has been
treated by the author, George Broad
hurst, with such consummate skill that
"The Price" has been pronounced the
best play of its kind since Camille. "
"The Price" cannot be called prob
lem play, as the author has not tried
to solve problem, he simply shows
with touches that are deft ard certain
picture of life, real and human. 1t
is a play of big moments which fairly
pulsate with heart interest and it is
said that Miss Edna Marshall, who
portrays the leading role. imparts to
the character of Ethel Toscani" such
charm and womanliness that gets the
entire sympathy of the audience and
wins for her several curtain calls at
the end Of the last act.
