Eli Hill, Lumber City, Pa., writes,“l have been suffering from Piles for twenty five years and thought myself incur able. DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve was recommended to me as a pile cure, so I bought a tox and it performed a permanent cure.” This is only one of thousands of similar caseß. Eczema, sores and skin diseases yield quickly when it is used. A. F. Long. The Great Wallace Show is strictly up-to-date in all its details and the performance moves with a rush that unfolds new features at every turn. Every artist is a stir in his or her particular line.

Mrs. Prank Meyer visited her mother, Mrs. Hopkins, at the Delphian sanitarium last week. Alfred went down Sunday and found his mother ready to come home with him at once. Mrs. Hopkinß quite baffled the skill of local physicians for several months but is now nearly restored to health. The treatment chat is given at the Delphian baths conld as easily be given here if our physicians and business men would grasp the importance of establishing a sanitarium here. The mineral water of Rensselaer has every natural element and curative property found in water at Delphi and other health resorts of Indiiana. It would be better for our business men’s association to encourage such an enterprise than to continue fishing for some manufacturing plant. 1 V* I a , *'i *•, 1 j ■ i if J f

Gus Phillips Departs.
Gus Phillips left yesterday morning for New York to join his troup for a forty-five weeks engagement. He plays,as mentioned before, with the Cecil and Edna Spooner Comedy Company, who visits only large towns making week stands of the same play. The following is a press notice from the Boston Critic, and Mr. Phillips has reason to feel that his services are appreciated when chosen to fill a responsible roll with a star that is earning such rich laurels: I don’t know when I have been more captivated by a dancer than by that graceful sylph, Cecil Spooner, who is at Keith’s this week. This is her debut in the East, but she is well known and popular all over the West, where she has starred at the head of her father’s company in comedies of the New England type. In these she introduced a kaleidoscope dance, with brilliant electric light effects, and it it is said to be almcst as entranctng as that of the more widely known terpsichorean artist, La Loie Fuller. Miss Spooner’s dances during this engagement depend altogether upon the grace of movement of the agile performer, and it is to be hoped that this visit will not be the last Boston will see of her.

Francis, alderman, Chicago, says; “I regard Dr. King s New Discovery as an Ideal panaces for coughs, colds and lung complaints, having used it in my family for the last five years, to the exclusion of physicians prescriptions or other preparations.” Rev.
