Tomorrow is your only chance to register. Do it and prove that you are bright. Now that everything is over South Chicago has a fountain that we may be well proud of. There , are some women in South Chicago who go out on the street with their complexions on crooked. There ought to be a fortune in it for the man who puts oh the market a sure cure for the -baseball throat. The South Chicago refrigerator street car line are still freezing and sneezing their patrons to their heart's content. The next thing you hear Mr. Har"I e setting control of the old South Chicago and Calumet "junk line." If you are not registered by tomorrow night the rest of the campaign will not matter as as far as you are concerned. Two girls down at Windsor Park were brave enough last Sunday to take a dip in Lake Michigan. They must have been too chilly propositions. Please remember ladle3 and gentlemen that you can buy your Christmas presents in South Chicago just as cheap now as you can when the rush is on. Evidently the Polish woman who nearly had her baby smothered during the bargain sale yesterday was giving the "kid" her first lesson in bargain hunting. The plant of the Pullman Car works has resumed its activity, hundreds of additional men being put to work on contracting the new $400,000 plant. Two Poles living on Superior avenue today ventured the chilly breeze in their straw hats, and were given rousing cheer by the pedestrians on the streets. Even in yesterday's defeat no rightminded fan can begrudge giving De troit one game. It would be awful monotonous for the cubs to win four straight. Before the river tugs cease their smoking, the city will have to, do-no more than say 'please." used in general elections will be on hand. The sewing school will open for their first meeting at 3:45 on Thursday. Wants to Protest.

Snakes have no external ears, but inside the head the ear bones are very crude, says St. Nicholas. Snakes "hear," however, by feeling vibration I of sound on their delicate scaly cotering, and searching for sound vibra tions by protruding the wonderfully sensitive tongue which is filled with 'housands of microscopic nerves. Their sight is very keen in distinguishing moving objects. FOR PIMPLES, TOO. ffew Discovery Cores Eczema an eradicates Minor Skin Troubles Over Sight. A few months ago the dispensers 01 poslam, the new discovery for the cun of eczema, decided to allow the druggists of the country to handle it. Previous to that time it could only be obtained direct from the laboratories. Since this change in the method 61 distribution, poslam has met with the most phenomenal success of anything Introduced to the drug trade In the las SO years. All leading druggists, Includ lng J. "W. Weis In Hammond, are no carrying the special 50-cent size re cently adopted, also the $2 Jar. This great success Is not surprisinf when It Is remembered that, in eczemn cases, poslam stops tho Itching wltl first application, proceeds to heal Im mediately, and cures chronic cases In t few weeks. In minor skin troubles such as pimples, blackheads, acne herpes, blotches, rash, etc., results show after an overnight application.

Patrons Enjoy One of Most Pleasant Evenings of the Year as Result of Good Home Talent Special to Thb Times Whiting, Ind., Oct. 13. The new version of "The District School" scored a second success last evening. The play was given by the Men's club of the Congregational church and was under, the direction of Prof. Byron W". Rice of Chicago. The comedy runs through the entire farce not in vehement types, great situations or strenuously rough-house fun but the happy and original wit and continual story telling which the gifts of the people In the cast have produced. It ripples with gayety and light variety, with mischief and local color. The genuine satire and humor in its laughing rhymes scored an enormous hit. Prof, nice the Tencfaer. Prof. Rice, as Prof. Ezekial Corntassel, acted in the capacity of teacher of the district school and did not prove to be much of a disciplinarian judging from the capers cut up by the twenty scholars under his charge. The names of the students who caus ed screams of laughter by their various answers where the professor called the roll ls as follows: The Enrollment. Ben Butler A. M. Hamilton Euster Brown.... John Kamradt Tooty Frooty... Mrs. Chas. Dyer John Jacob Astor A. N. Beaublen Peruna Jones Mrs. A. B. Canfield Cornelius Vanderbllt. . . . . .Geo. T. Gray Christopher Columbus Geo. M.

Holllday as deacon, Tldd and Mrs. Geo. T. Gray as Mrs. Amanda Jerusha Quackenbush. John Kamradt was In great trim. He sung laughingly and. well, took discreet liberties. Indulged In sparkling repartee and was perfectly irresistable. In the characterization of Buster Brown he was legitimate and Immensely Jolly. His makeup was a wonder and picturesque In Its burlesque of red suit sportlveness . Some On Final Work. Both Henry and Arthur Beaublen took active parts, their jokes being pungent and capital, especially the former, "Everybody Works Father," and the latter's composition on the cow. Diplomas of rather a large size were presented to Cornelius Vanderbllt and Ldla Plnkham, they being the brightest in the class and Daniel WTebster, who thought he too had earned a diploma was presented with a head of cabbage. The performance 'closed with the school joining In the singing of "School Days," the verses being sung by Buster Brown. The enthusiastic audience departed for their homes, feeling that though there was no history making creations, no stormy ensemble of splendid Invention, nor any fierce consequences of scientific discoveries, that they felt indebted to the Men's club and to those taking part In particular. for being given the privilege of listenlng to an excellent string of Incomparable songs and a speedy rollicking, quite amusing and Interesting lot of fun makers.
