Purified Blood
 Ey ESzEs8-itza E4z5alsalsl4 SOLVES Most of Sick ness Problems

People who have been pouhcing and anointing for years and years marvel at the way Purola does the work.
 When you come to realize that the skin and flesh beneath are composed of a network of tiny blood vessels you solve the mystery.
 There are wonderful medicinal properties in Purola Syrup Sarsap- arilla compound that follow the course of the blood stream just as naturally as the most nourishing food elements.
 Thousands know it to be really a remarkable remedy. It contains one ingredient, the active purpose of which is to stimulate the tissues to the healthy selection of it's own essential nutriment. And the med icinal elements of this matehless blood purifier are just as essen tiaI to well-balanced health as the
 
 nutritious elements of the meats, grains, fats and sugars of our daily food" said a well-known physician.
 Not only this, but If from the presence of some distributing poi son there is a local or general in terference of nutrition to cause boils, carbuncles, abcesses and kin dred troubles, Purola Syrup Sarsap- arilla compound, so direct the local cells that this poison is re- jected and eliminated from their presence.
 Then, too, Purola Syrup Sarsap- arilla compound, has such specific stimulation on these local cells as to preserve their mutual welfare and a proper relative assistance to each other
 Not one drop of minerals or drugs is used in its preparation. Ask for Purola Syrup Sarsaparilla compound, and just insist upon having it.-Keller Bros. Drug Co. Sole agents for "Purola" Remedies in Skagway. L

Count and the Maid's is a very pleasing connection of song, dance and screaningly fun ny cofnedy and 1t is all put over in such a way that the audience is kept wonder what is going to happen next until the curtain relieves. Victor Kahn, last seen here as the principal comedy in the Madame Sherry pro- duction when put on by the Plaza's stock company the closing week of last season, is taking care of the com edy end in this act and local theatre goers may rest assured it is being the funniest in his line.

 Willie is an object lesson in what can be accomplished by picking the right sort of a father. The cue mar vel began his education on the green top table when he was only six, and had to stand on a chair to make his shots. Hope Sr., was determined that his young hopeful should be- come exactly what he has become, the greatest cue wizard in the history of the game. His billiard education was continued six days a week and fifty-tWo weeks a year, until at the age of twelve Hope could make such experts as Slosson and Schaeferf play their niftfest game to hold him even Since then Hoppe has triurnphed in numerous e1f1aIches 5agalnSt the worlds best players has tasted defeat,

"GRITO DE YARA. ]"

The first definite and organized revolution against Spanish rule in Gu ba began forty-six years ago to-day with the famous proclamation of the patriots known as the Declaration of Yara. It ushered in a vain war for indepeD dence which continued for ten years. and which was not ended until the Pearl of the Antilles had been laid waste. The anniversary is annually celebrated. as a holiday, call bd .'Grito de Yara,'' by the people Of the republic. While the Yara decla- ration marked the beginning of the first general revolution. there had been sporadic inS1rrections in parts of the island since the beginning of the nineteenth century. In fact, the first rebellion against Spain in the New World was staged in the fever faithful island,'' which was doomed to suffer more and secure its indepen- dence later than any other American republic. The leaders of all of the yearly revolutions were executed by the Spanish authorities, but other pa- uiots took up the cause, and in 1893, with the assistance of the United States, the Cuba.
