Locomotive engineers are being appealed to by Influential railway jourals to abate the whistling nuisance, bailway officials, it is said, have been rying for a half century to stop un■ecessary whistling, and the enginenen are now asked to help. Perhaps he next appeal should be to the manfacturers of locomotives. If a less lowerful whistle were attached to the ngim s, such as is used on European ocomotives, the cure of the nuisance -ould be automatic and self-enforc-ing. Doctors are so often the subject of newspaper gibes that it is fair to •eprint this gentle rejoinder from a member of the profession, as reported by an exchange: The doctor: “Mrs. •brown has sent for me to go and sae er boy, and I must go at once.” His vise: “What is the matter with the joy?” The doctor: “I do not know, mt Mrs. Brown has a book on 'What o do Before the Doctor Comes,’ and must hurry up before she does it.” Little Miss Eleanor Fern of Idaho, he most youthful author on tecord, writing “The Autobiography of a Beter Baby” in the November Woman’s iome Companion, says in part: "I “rm trying to appear collected and unconcerned.

“ON TRIAL.” Great New York and Chicago Success at Majestic Next Week. At the Majestic Fort Wayne, for three nights, beginning November 22, with Matinee Wednesday, will be Cohan and Harris' pretentious production of "On Trial,’’ which has set all New York talking during its loug run at the Candler theater. Written by Elmer R. Reisensteln, who has just passed his twenty-second year. "On Trial” is a stage triumph from many viewpoints. But it is presented in so unique away that a narrative is invested with a novelty and a newness never before seen on the stage, simply because no play has been undertaki on with the same originality of design on the part of the playwright and with the wonderful scenic effects emanating from his genius. The play opens tn a court room with a man on trial for bis life. Out of this is woven a piece of stage work that is nothing short of a dramatic achievement. The scenes shift with kaleidoscopic change from the activities of the sourt room on the two days’ trial as it Troceeds to the murder and robbery and the movements leading up to the tragedy. As certain lines of important evidence are adduced, the court room is suddenly darkened and in less than a minute the court room with its heavy paraphernalia and with its judge, jury, lawyers and court attaches has disappeared and in its place there is the setting for the i acting out of the story forming the basis of the trial. The sequence in the changing scenes and celerity with which the changes are made are strik ing features of the production. While it is true that the mechanical acourtments of the piece impress one forcibly, it must not be understood ■ hat the success of the play lays alone in this accomplishment. In ■ deed it is the acting that the producion excels and while the stage ef*e 'ts are marvelous, the work of the : actors after all take precedence, thus oring a victory for the animate over u inanimate things of pie stage. Ar iis’ieally the play is one o* fidelity o the smallest detail and this is seen in every move, ever” facial expres sion and every spoken word from the stars of the cast down to the members of the jury, all of whom are traveling members of the company. The e ici ess of the production is an achievei ent -of the state mechanics that is wonderful. The excellent company specially se looted by Cohan and Harris includes Charles Darrah, Westcott Clark, Harry Cowley, James Jay Mulry, P. J. Rollow, Harry West, Barry Maxwell, George A. Cameron, George Fredericks, Beula Watson, Alice Phillips and Florence Moore. L. G. Williams will hold a sale of pure bred Hampshire and Poland China hogs on November 30. Cholera immune.

With A Guarantee of Results Why Await Proofs of Results? THE GERMAN RELIABLE STOCK TONIC For the cure of Hog Cholera and Chicken Cholera, •’nd e»|iial!y good for all kinds of stock, sick or well, is compounded of minerals. All intelligent livery men know the. importance of feeding their horses dry earth, the natural medicine tor the digestive organs of the horse, and the very life of tiie hog and chicken. The hog roots for it, the chicken scratches for it and the horse paws and laps for it. she dog and cat are vegetable and flesh eating animals; the former eMs grass and the latter catnip for their ailments. In prescribing for animals, their nature cannot be too closely studied. The Gefman Reliable Medicine Company’s Hog, Chicken, Horse and Cattle Tonic restores to the hog and chickeM their natural food for which they scratch and root and the horse for which he laps. This valuable compound is not a food, as the farmers grow food for their stock, but a compound prepared on scientific principles and contains all the natural blood purifying and digestive substances so essential to the health of the animals. It improves the appetite and promotes digestion of the food, purifies the blood from which the fat must be formed. It is an old adage, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." When a contagious or infectious disease breaks ont in town or country 7 , what do die physicians do? They commence taking a preventative to keep their system strong and healthy to resist the malady that they may be able to serve the people whose systems have succumbed to the disease. Now, so it is with stock, “an ounce of preventative is worth a pound of cure,” and this you have by the use o< German Reliable Medicine Company’s Tonic. So why do without this sterling remedy when many men, io you known personally, have tried and found this remedy the best for the cure and prevention of Cholera. Get Your Package Today.
