Habit-forming Medicines.

Whatever may be the fact as to many of the so-ci lied patent medicines containing injurious ingredients as broadly published in pome journals of more or less influence, this publicity nas.cenainiy been of great benefit in arousing needed attention to this subiect. It has. in a considerable measure, resulted in the most intelligent neoDle avoiding such foods and medicines as may be fairly suspected of containing the injurious ingredients complained of. Recognizing this fact some time a.an. Dr. Fierce, of Jtuflalo, N. Y., "took time by the forelock," as it were, and published broadcast all the ingredients of which bis popular medi cines are composed, lhus he has com pletely forestalled all harping critics a all onnosition that might otherwise e urged against his medicines, because t are now or knows composition. 1irthermore. from the formula printed on every bottle wrapper, it will be seen Ihat these medicines contain no aleohwi or other habit-forming drugs. Neithr do they contain any narcotics or injrious agents, their ingredients being mrcly vegetable, extracted from the ots of medicinal plants found growin in the deoths of our American fores and of well recognized curative virtij Instead of alcohol, which ew n In small oortions lon continued, as ifi obstinate cases of diseases, becomes 1ghly objec tionable from its tendency w produce a craving for stimulants, JJnf Pierce employs chemically pure, fri pie - refined glycerine, which of itself Is a valuable remedy in many cases ifclonic diseases, being a superior derclucyt. antiseptic, antiferment and suoing nutritive. It enhances the curalvl action of the Golden Seal root. S root. Black Cherrybark and Blood i ft, contained in "Golden Medical Discol fry.'' in all bronchial, throat and lung ali ctions attended with severe coughs. As will be seen from the writings of the eminent Drs. Grover Coe, of. New York; Bartholow. of Jefferson Medical College. I'hila.; Scudder, of Cincinnati; Ellingwood. of Chieago; Hale, of Chicago, and others, who stand as leaders in their several schools of practice, the foregoing agents are the very ttext ingredients that Dr. Fierce could have chosen to make up his famous "Discovery" for the cure of not only bronchial, throat and lung affections, but also of chronic catarrh in all its various form3 wherever located. AT THE THEATERS AI. Reeves New Phillips. There will be no vaudeville at the New Phillips tonight owing to the appearance of Al Reeves "Beauty Show." This is the only break in the vaudeville program. Al. Reeves' "Beauty Show," is one of the most costly and elaborate he has ever owned and. is fully equipped with grand scenery, gorgeous costumes and a marvelous display ot electrical effects and above' all, a carefully selected and beautiful collection of girls. Miss Florence Hughes late soprano soloist with Sousa's band and KlJw and Erlanger attractions, direct from Broadway theatre, New York, is included. "A Stranger in Town" Gennett. Frank Beamish, the unique comedian, who comes to the Gennett Friday night under the personal direction of that well known western manager Harry B. Linton, will present "A Stranger in Town", one of the cleverest written musical farces of the year. Mr, Beamish and the pretty girls and talented company will, no doubt, be greeted with a large and fashionable audience. Comedian Beamish is one of the best known stock comedians In the country and as a star of musical farce he has been received everywhere with unabounded enthusiasm. "Rufus Rastus" Gennett. JIurtig and Seamon will present at the Gennett on October 2nd. the not ed colored star comedian, Ernest Ho. gan, and a company of pronounced superiority in the musical farce ex travaganza, "Rufus Rastus," which for its second season of remarkable success comes with a convincing newness that should not fail to be appreciated. It has long been conceded that Ernest Hogan holds first place In the ranks of prominent col ored comedians and that his exalted position as an entertainer of versatil ity and intelligence is due him for special reasons. "Rufus Rastus' will prove all the advantages of being conspicuously at the head of novel, fascinating entertainment. li has gone out of fashion to boast of never reading ads. Those who do not nowadays are inclined to keep quiet about it, as they would about any other personal shortcoming.

Several light stepping gentlemen who without knowing it are about 33,777,328 years ahead of their time, and who call themselves the Dancing Masters association, have met and very solemnly pronounced a divorce between the waltz and the hug. Doubtless their intentions are the very best, but if they think that a waltz is a languid conversation over a long distance telephone they have several large and noisy facts concerning human nature to learn." If they think that .the spirited young man is to be content .to look at his lovely partner through a long distance telescope as they glide through the mazy waltz they have not had a heart to heart talk with the youth of America lately. - It may be that the waltz needs reforming and needs it badly, but the only way to do it is to prohibit all those under eighty years from engaging In that dance.

Scientists have discovered that the memory Is stronger in summer than In winter. That is easily explained. It is much . simpler to remember to bring home a quart of ice cream than a ton of coal. Most any dub has the price of the ice crem in his pocket, but it takes a man who is intimate with high finance to rustle the price of a ton of coal off hand. Of course it simplifies matters If a man has credit with a coal man who has a telephone, but how few of us have reached that delightful stage in the seventh heaven of bliss. In summer the memory has more out door exercise, while In winter time the task of dodging Christmas duties is enough to drive any mild mannered memory to nervous prostration. That may not be the explanation. Memory plays us some queer tricks, but you will notice that seasons do not make much difference on the memory of your creditors. For Business Reasons.

A man's I.'s the old fTo more packages of SL Miss Gra ce George In "Clothes" An Interesting Drama by Charming Pollock arid Avery Hopwood. The Company Includes Guy Standing and Frank ' Worthing. From Our New York Dramatic Correspondent. Surrounded by a splendid assemblage of well known and -able actors and actresses, Grace George has made a successful appearance at the Manhattan theater iu "Clothes," a study of city life by Channing Pollock and Avery Hopwood, a Cleveland newspaper writer. Appearing with Miss George are Guy Standing, Frank Worthing, Kobcrt T. Haines, Douglas Fairbanks, Louise Closser, Dorothy IJevelle and Anne Sutherland surely a goodly array , of "talent." , . ' The work of Miss George and of her foregoing associates is at all times as effective as the play will permit. The story in brief outline is the adventure of a girl of ingenuous but vafn disposition, who indulges her tastes for pretty garments and other extravagances in the belief that she is receiving an income from a legacy left her in the care of her father's lawyer. The latter has lost the money in bad investments and is supplying her 'with his own money in the hope that she will marry him after his invalid wife's death. When he finds she is attracted by another the scoundrel leads his rival to believe that he has been paj--ing her bills with her consent and thus succeeds for a time in clouding her good name. The plot also includes the downfall of a rich man through his own mania for affluent appearances and the social extravagances of his wife. Mr. Worthing as the scoundrel gives an unusually fine performance in a drunken scene at the climax. His disGRACE GEOIiGE. play of rage and chagrin on his dis covery that his victim had escaped from him gave the audience a genuine thrill. Miss George's gentle personality and ingenuous manner quite capture the audience's sympathy. She expresses emotions only in .miniature, but her performance has the ring of sincerity, and she does not fail to sound a note of reaj intensity at the play's climax. As it stands the play is an uncon ventional comedy, with at times a melodramatic tinge. Its spark of interest is bright throughout, increasing frequently to a wsrm glow of emo tional force. Its drift is the portrayal cf feminine vanity, extravagance and ooprielousness and the disasters to which such weaknesses may lead. A gown desired, secured, worn and cast cside by the heroine in the four successive acts is used as a symbol of the vicissitudes through which she passes. The satire of the whole is trenchant, but kindly, and it involves interesting and correct estimates of human nature. On the other hand, there are some loosely constructed situations and pas-

mart is his honor. It stands for hi
