Struck a Rich Mine. S. W. Bends, of Coal City, Ala., says he struck a perfect mine of health in Dr. King’s New Life Pills, for they cured him of liver and kidney trouble after 12 years of suffering. They are the best pills on earth for constipation, malaria, headache, dyspepsia, debility. 25c at A. F. ong’s. Hal Reid, the author of “The CowPuncher,” which comes to the Ellis Theatre on Monday, August Bth, for a one night’s engagement, said recently that this play was the result of a life’s work at playwrighting. “Where,” said Mr. Reid, “could a man find a broader or a better character to write about than the American cowboy? He is a true friend, a generous enemy. He is slow to pick a quarrel, but quick to defend the weak. Willing to lay down his life for his country or friends. The cow-puncher from the West, made up the Rough Riders, and the whole world knows their record at San Juan.” Mr. Reid has surrounded him with a powerful heart story and developed him into a play that"will live for years. W. F. Mann, the producer, has made the author’s ideal possible by giving “The Cow-Puncher” an excellent cast, a lavish scenic production, and to see this play makes one forget they are in a theatre. One only sees that which Is good in life and for one evening we feel that we really live and breathe the fresh air of those cow-punchers we see before us on the stage.
