CURES ECZEMA QUICKLY. New Drug, Poslam, Now Obtainable In Small Quantities. Since its discovery one year ago the nw drug, poslam, has successfully oured thousands of chronic cases of eczema and other distressing skin afflictions. Heretofore poslam has been dispensed solely for the benefit of eczema patients In large jars sufficient for a month's treatment. This was found to be an Inconvenience to many thousands who use it for minor skin troubles, such as pimples, blackheads, herpes, acne, scaly scalp, complexion blemishes, Itching feet, piles, etc., which require but a small quantity to cure. To overcome this, and in response to urgent appeals, the dispensers of poslam have been obliged to adopt, in addition to the regular two-dollar' package, a special fiftycent size, which in future may be found on sale at W. H. Sudhoff's and other leading drug stores, in Richmond, or may be ordered direct from the Emergency Laboratories, No. 32 West 25th Street, New York City. In all eczema cases poslam stops itching with first application, and proceeds to heal immediately; chronic cases being cured In two weeks. In less serious Skin troubles, results are seen after an

overnight application. Samples for experimental purposes may still be had, free of charge, by writing to the laboratories for them.

INDIANA SAFE SAYS EX-GOVERNOR

Durbin Gives Taft a Big Majority.

New York, Oct. 16. Ex-Governor W. T. Durbin was at Republican headquarters and at the request of Chairman Hitchcock he made a crief statement as to conditions in Indiana. He said: "Indiana will give the national Republican ticket a majority of from 35,000 to 40,000. The state ticket will he elected by not less than 15,000. Indiana Is normally Republican by 40,000. You may depend upon it the reports that there is any danger of the state being other than Republican in this election have no shadow of truth." : Cornelius N. Bliss, ex-treasurer of the Republican committee had a conference with Treasurer Shaldon, but no information as to the nature of the conference was given out.

Mons Dufour, a French scientist has succeeded in making thermometer tubes of pure quartz. Not only are these tubes transparent, but their resistance to heat and other advantages make them superior to glass for thermometers Intended to measure high temperatures. In such thermometers melted tin takes the place of mercury, and the scale reads from about 465 degrees Fahrenheit up to 1,000 degrees. It could be run up to 1,S00 degrees, for quartz does not soften under that temperature.

i ,i THE THEATER

Vaudeville at the Phillips. The acrobatic work of the Nickelson

and Kush team at the New Phillips this week has won the most open ap-j proval. These two men work espec- j ially hard in their attempt to please , the public. They have acts that taxi

every muscle in the body, beside taking a world of skill. The head balancing as done by them is the best exposition of anything of that nature that has been seen here in some time.

Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. CeyyriRht, 1908. by Edwin A. Nye.

THE CRY OF THE MOB. "Justice!" So shouted the mob at Springfield, 111. Angered because a prisoner charged with a heinous crime and now likelj to prove his innocence had been spirited away by the authorities. "Justice:" Vexing the heavens with raucous cry, the mob surged through "the bad lands," torch in hand, giving to thb flames the homes of decent citizens with the property of the vile, makiny hideous the slums of Springfield wltl its hoarse, insistent demand for blood. "Justice!" Voicing its grim demand, it rioted In brutal wounding and killing of men women and children. "Justice!" Night and day, day and night, went up the awful growl of the multitude, appeasing for a moment its thirst for blood by dragging an inoffensive man of eighty years from his peaceful home, beating this white haired octogenarian as if he were a mad dog of the street? and then gloating over his hanging body. Thus the Springfield mob, aflame with hatred of a race, drunk with vengeance, riotous, insane. But Let us look behind this hateful face of anarchy, foul with passion, lost to human instinct, murderous, and find some adequate cause for this outbreak of a maddened people. Surely there must be some final cause the slow, growing sentiment, settled into public conviction else the terrible spectacle is meaningless. There was a cause. For years the miscarriage of Justice in the courts had been countenanced by sworn oQcials for the sake of votes. For years the release of known criminals on technical or political terms had been winked at by those who were set for law enforcement. Public sentiment had piled up behind the dam until the barriers gave way and the flood put to scorn the puny arms that tried to stop it! "Justice!" The eternal years of God are hers. Somehow, somewhere, some time, her verdict must be put on record if by n other means, then by the mob.

"Fighting Parson" Gennett. The constant tendency toward increasing liberality in religious circles

and from the pulpits of our really up-! to-date ministers has prompted Lem B. Parker to write a play that is bound to add materially in revolutionizing the melodramatic stage in the eyes of the better class of citizens and in general. The name of the play is "The Fighting Parson," and it will be! seen at the Gennett theater for an en-;

gagement of one night Oct. 20. The sermon which the Parson delivers to his congregation at Christ's Mission in the second act Is one of those soul stirring kind which causes one to think. Recently when "The Fighting Parson" played an engagement in Chicago, a hardened old sinner from South Clark street was heard to say "The Sermon 'The Fighting Parson preached last night at the theater was the only real sermon I ever heard and It's got me guessing. I am going back tonight." So much for the good of the play.

DePew-Burdette Gennett. The DePew-Burdette stock company played to a good sized audience last night at the Gennett theater. The play "The Country Boy" was well put on with Tom DePew as the country boy. He kept the crowd in an uproar of laughter. The little Wheeler sisters deserve special mention as they do some very clever work dancing and singing. The songs and moving pictures are all the latest. Tonight Oliver Twist will be played.

Guy Stock Co. Gennett. The Guy Stock company which comes to the Gennett for next week is no stranger to local playgoers. This season Manager Mercer has secured an excellent company, to sup-, port Mr. G. Carlton Guy. The repertoire this season is one of the best ever presented by a repertoire company. Among the plays are: The Manxman; The Vendetta; The Vampire; The Devil; The Little Mother; Father and Son; Dead-wood Dick; Jim Bludso and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Seats for the Manxman are now on sale.
