SHORTAGE OF HORSES.

Heavy purchase by British and
French agents Of horses for war
use is presenting II serious prob
lem to the Quartcrmaster's Depart
ment of the United States army
and it is feared that it will soon be
impossible to obtain enough horses
for its own purposes during the
present year. Already the young
horses bought for the remount sta
tions cost seventeen dollars per
head more than last year. These
animals are too young to be used
at once and their sales do not re-

cavalry horses which already stands

Joints Stiff From Rheumatism--Hot Springs
Failed to Cure--Andes Medicines Did the Work

Montgomery, Ala, June 10, 1913.
Hot Springs, Ark, has a world
wide reputation as the mecca for
the cure of all forms Of rheuma-
tism. Invalds are carried there on
stretchers, in rolling chairs. Every
train brings some who are drawn
and joints have become stiff and
they come to battle in the health
giving waters, with hopes of being
restored to their normal health
again. People of all walks of life
are to be found here, all seeking the
coveted goal. Health the main
spring of all good and great things.
However these health-giving wat
ers, with their wonderful fame as to
their curative powers, sometimes
fail to give the sufferers any relief
whatever. This is proven from the
statement of Mr.. j. ID. Bershies, liv-
ing corner Of Mildred and Mobile
streets, who has been sufferer
from rheumatism of the very worst

letter-Mrs. Stacks Story
About Her ChiId's Recovery
Is Entirely Reliable.

Palmyra, Pa.-"Three years ago my
little girl had black measles which left
her with chronic cough and so awfully
thin you could count all her ribs, and she
coughed so much she had no appetite.
Nothing we gave her seemed to
help her at all until one day Mrs Neibert
told me how much good Vinol had done
her little girl, so decided to try it for
my little one, and it has done her so much
good she is hungry all the time, her
cough is gone, she is stouter and more
healthy in color and this is the first win
ter she has been able to play out in the
snow, coasting and snow-balling without
any i'll effects. Mrs. ALFRED SLACK,
Palmyra, Pa.
We know Vinol will build up your
little ones and make them healthy,
strong and robust, therefore we ask
parents of every frsil and sickly child
in this vicinity to try bottle of Vinol,
our delicious cod liver and iron tonic
without oil.
If we can induce you to try a bottle
of Vinol as body-builder and strength
creator for your child, and you do not
find it is all we claim, we will return
your money on demand.

HER SECRET

We occasionally meet a woman
whose age is as beautiful as the
bloom of youth. We wonder how
it has come about-what her secret
is.
Here are q few Of the reasons.
She knew how to forget disagree
able things.
She kept her nerves well III hand
and inflicted them on no one.
She mastered the art of saying
pleasant things.
She did not expect too much from
her friends.
She made whatever work came to
her congenial.
She retained her illusions and did
not believe all the world wicked and
unkind.
She relieved the miserable and
sympathized with the sorrowful.
She never forgot that kind words
and Il smile cost nothing, but are
priceless treasures to the discourag-
ed.
She did unto others rs she would
be done by.
She never missed an opportunity
to tell her friends and neighborS to
subscribe for this paper and impress
them that it is worth many times
the subscription price.

"A PAIR OF SKIES"

The Tabb Theatre offers tonight,
wednesday,, II. II. Frazee's inter-
national comedy hit, "a Pair of
Sizes" This unusual and novel
comedy, which ran for nearly a year
on Broadway at the Longacre Thea
tire, was acknowledged by New York
City critics to be something new in
farce, and although these blase gen.
tlemcn of the press do not usually
indulge in hyperbole, the consensus of
their opinion seemed to be that not
since the days of the lamented Chas.
II. lloyt had anything so agreeable
in the way of farce been offered the
Metropolitan show goer. The ire
mcndous success which has greeted
the comedy wherever it has appear
ed has proven them exacted right III
their opinions. The story is unus-
ual and full of satire and humor Of
the highest class and the logical plot
is sufficiently surprising in the eli
makes of the situations involved to
command the eager and undivided
attention of the audience through
out the action of the piece. "a Pair
of Skies" sets forth the troubles of
two partners in the pill business
whose natures are so antagonistic
that they are absolutely unable to
get along together. Finally so heated
do their daily alterations become
that they call in their lawyer to
settle their partnership. lie finds
this to be an impossible task as
neither of the partners will sell his
interest to the other He finally
hits on an idea which he induces the
beligcrentS to accept and so novel
does it prove that it not only fur
nishcs more laughs than comedy
generally affords but provides the
name for the piece as well.
