My rheumatism was so bad that
every morning l had to rub my
legs before | could stand up and
my back was so stiff and painful
that it nearly killed me to stoop
over. My joints, too, were so
stiff and sore that | could not
bend over to tie my shoes. My
appetite was poor and when |
did eat anything was in misery
for hours afterwards. | was
hardly ever able to get good
nights sleep because my kid
neys were so badly out of order,
and last spring my condition got
so bad | wasn't able to work and
for several weeks | could hardly
get out of the house.
The man | hired to take my
place recommended Tanlac so
highly that | began taking it,
and to make long story short, |
haven't pain in my body now
and can do as hard a days work
as any man. | eat three square
meals a day, digest them per-
fectly and sleep like a top every

In this issue will be found the
formal announcement of Mr.. w.
P. Knox as a candidate to sue
coed himself as City Marshal.
Pen Knox has held this place SO
long in the aggregate that many
people have come to think of the
office at all times when they see
the man, and can hardly think
of any thing else when he is
around. The voters know what
they have in him as an officer,
and what he will do if elected.
We need not tell you about him,
for you know him thoroughly.
That he has given satisfaction
to a majority of the voters is
attested by the fact that he has
held the office for so many
terms. Look over the situa ton
carefully, and if you think w.
P. Knox is the best man for the
place, vote for him on election
day.

ing" forward, for the Astor Theatre is
now added to the roster Of playhouses
devoted to the silversheet. Formerly
known as the American. located at
Girard avenue near Seventh, this play
house has undergone such changes that
1t was hardly recognized by the large
and enthusiastic crowd which gathered
despite the rain to see Clara Kimball
Young officially dedicate It.
A group Of local business men. headed
by Ben Amsterdam, has given that Sec
tion one of the finest of local photoplay
theatres. Jack Rosenthal is the man
ager. His program included orchestral
music as well as special vocal solos. The
pictures were shown in a handsome set
ting. The interior Of the theatre has
been entirely redecorated in gold and
pearl with a handsome mural painting
over the proscenium arch. There are
special waiting rooms for the conven-
ience of the patrons. The approach
through the beautiful lobby to the main
auditorium is I'm simple but effective
style. while the large waiting room on
the balcony floor will care for those
awaiting the second performance. VIII
liam Farnum in "If I Were King" and
other movies were the opening offering.
Miss Young also appeared at the Great
Northern Theatre. where her picture
Mid-Channel." Is being shown.
