DOUBLE BURLESQUE
SHOWN AT GAYETY
Wrothe and Watson, or Watson
aud Wrothe, Try Out Thea
ter Novelty.

Just what influence the three-ring cir
Gus had on the newest departure in en-
tertainment cannot be actually deter
mined, but theatrical managers through
out the country are watching the ex-
pertinent Of Ed Lee Wrothe and Billy
W. Watson in heading two separate
and distinct shows with the same cast
on the burlesque circuit this season.
The double show Is here this week at
the Gayety, and is the first OF its kind
that has ever been tried. 1t upsets
all the principles held in burlesque for
genera tlons-and yet 1t retains all the
burlesque features its promoters claim.
Ed Wrothe Is product OF the cir
Gus. Billy Watson-"Sliding Billy'-is
really a product of the District, as he
had his first stage experience here with
Old John Grieves at the Bijou. Wat
son was a member of the Grieves stock
company three years. Wrothe has not
been with a circus for years. although
he filled almost every job that could
be filled except that of acrobat or trick
rider. He finished as a first-class clown
, and from the circus went into vaude-
Vile, thence to musical comedy and
then to burlesque. For years he was
with Bickle and Watson.
That Is where Wrothe met "Sliding
Billy" Watson. Thew were both under
contract with Joe HurtiR this season.
and both had decided never to appear
In burlesdue again. The suggestion was
made that they try out double show.

MANY TROUBLES DUE

''It Is no use advertising a medicine unless

And that is why druggists like to sell and
recommend Sovax. the great kidney remedy.
Ever since we first introduced SolvaX drug
clerks have been so busy selling 1t that II is
sometimes hard to keep sufficient stock OIL

ferer or money back. This may seem rash
but users have said many good words in
favor OF SolVaN that II is not expected thaS
many packages will be returned"
This shows great faith in SolNaN. 1t really
Is most unusual medicine because IL over

Why Tolerate Catarrh?

You have noticed no doubt, that any
cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the
flow of mucous amazes you that such
Objectionable matter could find lodg-
ment in your head. To ignore this
catarrh when the cold subsidies is
wrong because it continues to slowly
injure the delicate Innings Of the nasal
passages and clog them W.
To correct catarrh, cleanse the nos:
trils frequently with a solution OF warm
water and salt, insert vaseline on re-
firing, and take spoonful of SCOTS
Emulsion after meals for. one month.
SCOTS acts through the blood to feed
the tissues, and contains soothing
glycerine to check the Inflammation
and heal the sensitive membranes.
