 Melvin St.. Wakefield, Mass.
 My little child, IS months old, had sores break out all over his face, arms limbs and body, from head to feet he was complete mass of sores, many oi which were quite large. He cried con. stantly day and night until was near ly worn off my feet. The family doctor advised me to consult a specialist and I brought my child to three of them in Boston and they failed to give him even temporary relief. A friend advised me to try E. l.. M. Ointment and as a last resort did. and after two weeks treatment the sores were completely healed and his skin restored to its healthy condition. He now eats and gleeps an contented child should. ] am positively sure that F. |. M. Oint- ment saved my child's life.

THE HOUSE OF A
 THOUSAND CANDLES

When the Selig Polyscope Com
 pany set out to adapt Meredith Mich olson's novel "The House of Thou sand Candles" to motion pictures they realized it offered much oppor-
 tunity for clever photographic work and also gave their star, Harry Mes tayer, a part which fitted him per fectly-one in which both serious
 and comic action figured. They de-
 termned, therefore, to make the subject one which would be remem-
 bered by all who saw it. Just how we'll they succeeded may be guessed from the opinions of motion picture critics who have seen the picture and who have been unanimous in declar- ing it a marvellous production. "The
 House of Thousand Candles" will be the feature attraction at the Gem
 theatre on Thursday, and Manager Hardy believes that in it he has one
 of the best attractions he has booked | this season.

aon rOoIrON LNENT RAZ-
 ING MUNICIPAL AUDITORIUM

Little Rock, March 13.-Oficers of the State Democratic Central Com mlttee have made a request of Mayor Charles E. Taylor, that the Municipal Auditorium, Little Rocks great con- vention hall, be allowed to remain until after the meeting of the next Democratic Convention. This hall is the only place in Little Rock that can properly accommodate the convention 1t being more adapted to convention purposes than the theatres, and the officers desire it's use.
 The Auditorium was ordered razed by the city council some weeks ago. but upon petition of the Little Rock Festival Chorus, was permitted to stand until after the spring festival. The council ordered the building re- moved because it was an additional fire hazard, and because it was not considered safe for large crowds to enter it. The building has been strengthened a bit, and the officers of the State Central Committee be- lieve it will hold the convention dele gation without cndangering life or limb.

oI 70 of tnese establishments were rubber boots and shoes; of IS. rubber belting hose, packing, etc.; and of 290, automobile tires or castings and inner tubes, motorcycle and bicycle tires, rubber clothing, druggists and stationers' sundries, and other miscel- laneous rubber goods. The products reported for the 331 establishments for 1914 were valued at $300,251.S27. At the census of 1909, PCT establish ments were reported, with products valued at $197,394,63S. The increase in value of products, therefore, was $102,857, ,1S9, or 52.1 per cent.
 In addition, rubber products to the value of $446,6SS were reported in 1914 by 14 establishments engaged primarily in other lines of manufac- ture but which produced rubber goods as subsidiary products.
 Production of Rubber Tires.
 The production of rubber tires for 1914 was valued at S146,411,692 and formed almost half, 4S.S per cent, of the total value of all kinds of rubber goods manufactured during the year. Statistics for the manufacture of tires were not obtained for 1909, but it may be safely assumed that the in- crease of 52.1 per cent in the total annual output of rubber goods dur ing the 5-year period is accounted for in very large part by the enormous growth of this branch of the industry. There was reported the manufacture of S,020,S15 automobile tires or cas- ings, valued at S105, ,671 ,223; or r. 906,993 automobile inner tubes, val ued at $20,09S,936; of solid tires for motor and other vehicles, to the value of SIS, 5,6S1; and of 3,72S,13S mo- torcycle, bicycle and aeroplane tires, valued at $6,905,S52.
 Production of Footwear and Miscel-
 laneous Products.
 Next to tires, rubber footwear was the most important product reported for the industry. There were manu- factured during the year 4,024,486 pairs of boots, valued at $12,64793l, and 57.2l1,72S pairs of shoes, valued at $37,S5S,222,. The value of rubber clothing produced was $6,996,810; of garden, fire and other hose, $16,813,- 69S, of rubber belting, $7,9S9, ,405; of rubber packing, $3,507651; of drug gists' and stationers' sundries, ST. 527,755; and of miscellaneous manu- factures of rubber, $39,9S3,9 ,969.

OLD VIRGINIA MINISTRIES

The best negro minstrel show that Fl Pasoans ever saw was that given at the Fl Paso theatre Tuesday night by the Old Virginia Minstrels. The house was we'll filled and the audience. black and white alike, laughed or applauded heartily throughout the evening. There was lots of real fun and sev- eral acts that would win applause anywhere.
 Hi Henry Hunt, the contortionist and tre eater, was a real novelty and his act is one that is not often seen anywhere. Among other feats he took a small frying pan full of burning alcohol and ate it with a spoon. the flames leaping from his mouth with every spoonful; then he covered a string with alcohol and set it on fire and took it into his mouth: as a final act of daring, he took red hot sol dering iron from timers furnace, walked to the front of the stage and put it into his mouth. The audience could hear 1t sizzle.
 Arthur Prince, the juggler and hoop roller, is a real expert. There are hoop rollers on the best vaudeville circuits in the country who have no better control and some that do not perfrom as difficult feats as Prince His hoop rolling is nothing short of wonderful. Similar acts have ap- peared at Hammerstein's in New York that are not as good.
 One of the strong features of the show is that the comedians are real comedians. They are the funniest negroes that it has ever been the privilege of Fl Paso theatergoers to see. Watson, big black fellow, is a fine singer and a natural fun maker Lots of white men behind a burnt cork mask, who draw much more money than this negro, are not such good entertainers. Edwai ds, his part ner, is almost as good. He has voice that gets laugh from the very start and the talking act between these two men is a scream.-Express Her aid, Fl Paso, Texas.
