Break Up Bronchial Coughs,

Don't neglect your first cold, cough
 or any Bronchial affection, this fall, but commence treatment immediately, and through using the proper medi- cine, it can be checked from the very
 start and promptly cured, but if neglected probably will hang on all winter; if it does not develop into something more serious, such as Pneu- monia or Consumption. True, there arc hundreds, yes thousands of cough
 remedies on the market. While some are good, there are many which are not but are positively harmful, due to the narcotics which they contain. But why experiment with these different remedies purely on the strength per haps of some testimonials or on the exaggerated claims of manufacturers, when Schiffmann's New Concentrated Expectorant is sold by Greeson Drug Company on such positive guarantee to give perfect satisfaction, yes even more-money will be refunded by

The recital, Judith of Bethulia,' y
given by Mrs. M. Moseley Withers,
Dramatic Reader, on Tuesday even

Church, was a decided hit. Besides
being a graduate of one of the lead

herself to be Scholar" in her titled
profession, for which she has studied
hard, without assumption. By her
easy manner and graceful stage ap-
pearance in the portrayal of this
very difficult reading, Mrs. Withers
made good the saying of Miss Moore,
the Principal of the Maude Moore
School of Expression of this City,
that she is a young woman of un-
excelled ability as reader" A very
large and appreciative audience list
ened to this fascinating recital
She was assisted by the brilliant
and talented musical prodigy, Miss
Marienne Jeffrey, who delighted her
hearers in the "Prelude c. Sharp
Minor" by S. Rachmaninonn.
The next admirable surprise was the
"Overture, Poet and Peasant, by the
Imperial Orchestra, which was en-
Enthusiastically received; this was their
first appearance and we predict a
bright future for them with the very
efficient musical Director, Mrs. Sem
sabaugh. The company are:
Mr.. Dan White-Violinist and Leader,
Mrs. B. Gray-Cornetist,
Mr.. J. w. Wright-Drummer,
