Folks who have been getting to the
theatre around eight-tn1rty will do
well to note the caution of the
theatre management Because Of the
length of the performance the night
shows of ooh Baby" are scheduled
to start promptly at FIVE minutes
after eight.
The Marcus show comes to Keokuk
from Burlington. The reports that
have reached Manager Dodge are
such that the attraction is apparently
better than ever before. 1t is said
that the patronage enjoyed by the
Marcus Show in this section has been
little short of phenomenal.
The advance sale at the box office
is large. There is little doubt that
there will be few vacant seats in the
big playhouse when the first of
Charlie Abbate's haunting melodies
greet the ear.
All hail ooh Baby" and her drove
of charming peaches!

Fer ITCHING TORTURE:
Use A1ltiseptic Liquid Zemo

There is one remedy that seldom
fails to stop itching torture and relieve
skin irritation and that makes the skin
soft, clear and healthy.
ANY druggist can supply you with
Zemo, which generally overcomes skin
diseases. Eczema, itch, pinnples, rashes,
blackheads, in most cases give way
to Zemo. Frequently, minor blernishes
disappear overnight Itching usually
stops instantly. Zemo is safe, anti
septic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only Csc; an extra
large bottle S1.C0. It will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.

A desire that thousands OF Mack
Sennett film comedy devotees have
never hoped seriously to entertain is
about to be realized. At the Grand
theater on Sunday the famous SEN
nett bathing beauties, whose charms
have been hitherto silently extolled
only on the silver screen, are to ap-
pear in person. They will make the
journey to the Grand especially for
the purpose, by special permission of
the comedy producer, and appear in
series of beautiful tableaux and an
act staged by them, in all their
gorgeous raiment
These beauties, made famous by
Sennett's two-reelers, come to give

"Listen Lester"

There's a brand new expression in
usage, Listen Lester" which for an
entire year has gone the length and
breadth of New York, brought into
favor by John Cort's musical comedy

year was the attraction at the Knick-
erbocker theatre in New York, and
which now comes to the Grand
theatre Saturday, Nov. Is. The uses
of this expression are myriad be It
as preface to advice, good or bad;
to some remark which requires strict
attention on the part OF the listener;
or simply as an exclamation. 1t was
originated by Harry l.. Cort George
