WIFE PRMSES CUTICURA Daughter's Head Encrusted with Dandruff Feared she Would Lose her Hair Many Treatments were Futile Baby had Milk-Crust. BOTH CHILDREN CURED BY FAMOUS REMEDIES "For several years my husband was missionary in the Southwest, and we were living on the edge of the desert at an elevation of nearly five thousand feet. Every one in that high and dry ataotphere has more or less trouble with dandruff and my daughter's scalp became 1 so encrusted with it that I was alarmed for fear she would lose all her hair, which was very heavy. After spending between five and six dollars for various resnedies. in desperation I bought a cake of Cutioura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment. After rubbing the Cuticura Ointment thoroughly into the roots of the hair. I gently combed the crust of dandruff free from the scalp, and then gave her head a thorough shampoo with the Cuticura Soap. This left the scalp beautifully clean and free from dandruff, and after hair was dry, I again rubbed the Cuticura Ointment, this time sparingly, into the roots, and I am happy to say that the Cuticura Remedied were a complete success. My troubles with dandruff were over, although for a long time afterward I used the Cuticura Ointment as at first, after shampooing, which kept the scalp and roots of the hair moiat. I have used successfully the Cuticura Remedies for so-called 'milk-crust' on baby's head, and have never found anything to equal them. You are at liberty to publish thai letter, for I do sincerely believe that the Cuticura Remedial are a biessing to mankind. Mrs. J. A. Darling, 310 Fifth fit., Carthage, Ohio, Jan. 20. 1908." Cuticura Ointment is one of the most successful curatives for torturing, disfiguring humors of the skin and scalp, including loss of hair, ever compounded, in proof of which a single anointing with it. preceded by a hot bath with Cuticura Soap, and followed, when necessary, by a mild dose of Cuticura Resolvent (liquid or pills) is often sufficient to afford immediate relief of itching, burning and scaly humors, ccsemsa. irritations and inflammations, permit rest and sleep, and point to a speedy cure when all else fails. tb. aatM. rtHlf Dn. 4k

MISSIONARY'S '
"The Man of the Hour." The annonucement at the Gennett for tonight is George Broadhurst's greatest of all American plays, "The Man of the Hour." One sits down to this play as he would to a good dinner. The heartiness and wholesomeness of the characters, together with the theme of the play itself, the right fighting against evil, are among the things that give the performance its human quality and cause it to appeal to all. The characters are delightflu ' creations, strong and cpnvincing and thoroughly in keeping with their surroundings. "The Man of the Hour" is so true to life that it doesn't seem like a play, and in the Illusion that is created the spectator fancies he is looking upon real people, doing real things. "The Man of the Hour" pleased a large matinee audience this afternoon. & Keith Stock Company. Beginning Monday night, when the Keith Stock company opens a week's engagement at the Gennett theater, Richmond theater goers will be treated to one of the best stock organizations ever seen at popular prices. During the engagement such successes as The Peddler. Never Too Late to Mend, Coon Hollow, Paid a Debt, 50 Miles From New York will be played. The acting company is without doubt the best ever seen with a popular priced atraction. such well known people as Chris Young. Joe Kelley, coon shouter, Helen Leslie the top soubrette, Alfred Clark and Miss Bessie Warres; are included in the cast. Every detail has been attended to. Get the habit and visit the Keith Stock. The Right of Way. The dramatization of Sir Gilbert Parker's story, The Right of Way, which comes to the Gennett soon, is very sharp, direct and compelling. From the beginning of the first act to the end, you are nterested. The story of "The Right of Way" is we presume, quite familiar to the novel reader. Charlie Steele Is a doubter and debauchee; he. lacks the will to do much more than laugh at those who would do right. He finds that his wife is in love with another man and he goes to what he believes is a certain death in a dive outside of Montreal. Instead of being killed he is injured so that for three years he forgets his old pessimistic degraded self. He does not even remember his own name, and he falls In love with a young innocent, not knowing that his wife still lives. A surgical operation
CANDIDATES WILL HOT BE PLEDGED No Promises to Be Exacted By the Indiana AntiSaloon League. A NEW SYSTEM DEVISED IN .FUTURE THE TEMPERANCE ORGANIZATION WILL SUPPORT MEN WHO APPEAR TO BE INCLINED IN ITS DIRECTION. Indianapolis, Ind.. ' Sept. 15. R. C. Minton, general attorney for the Indiana Anti-saloon league, has announced that the league will not attempt to exact promises from candidates for the legislature to support the league's legislative program at the next session. This will be entirely different from the plan followed last year, when the league canvassed all of the candidates of both parties all over the state, and demanded promises that they would vote for the bills promoted and favored by the league. The candidates were judged according to the answers which they gave to the league, and the league made up its slate accordingly. In some counties the league supported republican candidates for the legislature and in others, where they found a democrat who was willing to give his promise of support, they supported a democrat. Wherever they found a county in which neither the republican or the democrat would promise or in which both were willing to make the promise the league made no choice and left it up to the voters to make their own choice, on the ground that it made no difference which candidate was elected. What the Plan Is. Minton says that next year the league will size up the candidates from all over the state and pick out the men who appear to be the best ones for the legislature. Then they will support these men, but they will not exact any promises from them. The league believes it will have a better chance to win if it assists In nominating men on whom it can depend to support its measures and then work for their election without any promises, rather than to seek to tie them up with promises that would have to be kept. Minton Is the man who has charge of the legislative work of the Anti-saloon league. He wrote the county local option law which was passed by the special session of the legislature, and has assisted in the trial of the cases throughout the state in which the law has been attacked. He also has assisted in the preparation of the briefs in support of the law which have been filed with the supreme court in the cases on appeal to test the con

Williams imperials." "Williams Imperials," aptly styled the big, bright, fun and beauty show comes to the New Phillips Saturday, September 18. The Imperials are prime favorites all the larger cities, and rightly so for they have never failed to present a snappy, gingery entertainment, well calculated to chase the blues and guaranteed to cure any case of grouch ever known. A new two-p.ct sparkling burletta, entitled the "Imperials Abroad," is staged and costumed in elaborate fashion and serves to introduce Harry L. Cooper, the favorite German comedian, Helen Almorah, prima donna, and Violet Hilson, a dainty soubrette. i A typical Williams chorus of "nifty" singing and dancing damsels will be much in evidence in the ensembles. In the vaudeville section will be seen Clara Raymond and Corinne De Forest in a novel sister act; the Irish American Trio, in a comedy singing sketch; Senorita Korenah, the famous Spanish dancing beauty; Violet Hilson and Joseph P. Dolan, singing and dancing skit, and Zazel's artist's models in a series of beautiful living pictures copied from paintings n the salons of Paris. Youder Stock Company. The New Phillips theater has been doing a fine business with the Youder show which has been giving the best of satisfaction. There will be a special reception matinee today at 2:30. Tonight will be the last opportunity to see "At Cozy Corners." Commencing Thursday evening ladies free night, the company will present "Her Husband's Friend," a comedy for laughing purposes only. There will be new vaudeville acts, moving pictures and illustrated songs between the acts. On account of the Imperials being booked for Saturday night the company will go to Dayton returning Monday when they will present "The King of Detectives. Among the other plays to be presented are "Down East," "The Man of the Hour," "Parish Priest," "Man on the Box" and other New York successes. Special scenery will be painted for each production and it is hoped that the people of Richmond will turn out in large numbers and make the engageemnt of the Youder Company a pleasant one.
stitutionality of the law. He is regarded as one of the very best posted men in the state on liquor laws, and he is a smooth politician and a hard worker in the cause. Therefore, what he says in this regard is accepted as showing just what the policy of the league next year will be. Plan Is Much Favored. It is believed that the candidates for the legislature next year will feel bet ter in the campaign if they are not asked to bind themselves on the liq uor question, for both parties will do their utmost to keep the saloon question from being mentioned in their state platforms. This is evident from the talki that is heard on both sides whenever the subject is mentioned. The republicans fear that to indorse in any way the county option law will lay their party open to attack by the liberal voters who do not now and never did, approve of the local option law. They realize that the liquor question last year was largely responsible for the slump that the party suffered at the election, and no one is more thor oughly convinced of this than James E. Watson, who ran for governor on the republican ticket. The Hcro'a Reward.

Nuns Trapped in Deadly Auto Crash Near Door of Church
New York Sept. 12. While the par ishioners of St. Elizabeth's Roman Catholic church. One Hundred and Eighty-Seventh street and Broadway, were celebrating mass they were suddenly aroused by an explosion which sounded like the discharge of a gun. Many of the worshippers hurried out of the church and saw Father Lynch, one of their priests, kneeling beside two women and administering the last rites of the church. Two acolytes, in scarlet cassocks and white surplices, who, had followed the priest, were kneeling beside him. The two women were victims of an automobile. With bared heads and bended knees, the crowd watched the priest and many a prayer was offered for the recovery of the injured. TH ASTERIA. Interesting; Data Absat the Haste Star Gem of Ceylon. Familiar to some of the ancient writers and credited with supernatural powers, the asteria, or star gem, was highly valued for the benefits supposed to be conferred on the wearer. Its bright, six rayed star, ever changing and shifting with every play of light and especially shooting out its dames - in the direct sunlight, would seem to be something more than an ordinary crystal, aud to the superstitious mind it could readily be believed to embody some tutelar spirit. The particular virtue attributed to this gem was the conferring upon the wearer of "health and good fortune" when worn as an amulet, and to those fortunate to be born in the month of April, with which the stone was associated or represented, the wearer was insured from all evil. The star stone is found principally in Ceylon, invariably in soil peculiar to rubies and sapphires. Indeed it is composed of. the same constituent "corundum," its chatoyant, or star rays, being caused by the pressure of what the natives call "silk." It is found in many different colors, from pale blue, pink and white to deep dark blue, ruby and purple. The blue are termed sapphire stars, the red ruby stars. It is always cue en sabochon, the star dividing into six rays at the apex. It is next in hardness to the diamond. The "Moorman" of Colombo, with tools as rude and simple as his forefathers used 1,000 years before, with no training or instruction except the unwritten mysteries of the craft handed down from father to son, will produce the most wonderful results in cutting and polishing gems and in many Instances rival the more educated lapidary of Europe for judgment in cutting gems to the greatest advantage.

It is customary in Polish villages to strew straw over the Christmas eve supper tables aud for the young people, blindfolded or in the dark, to pick out each a straw therefrom. Should the straw be green the lucky maiden expects to wear a bridal wreath or the youth to lead a blushing bride to the altar during the approaching year, but a dried straw foretells to cither long waiting, possibly even until death. (n other rural Polish districts on the "Christ's eve" wine, beer and water are placed by a girl between two candles on a table. She then retires into a corner or an adjoining room to watch the result reflected in a mirror hung for this purpose. If as the clock strikes midnight a man enters and drinks the wine she is happy, for her wooer will be rich. Should he drink the beer, she may be content, for the wooer will be well to do. If the water be chosen, her husband will be very poor. But if as the clock strikes no man comes to her table the anxious maiden shivers with more than midnight terror, believing that she is doomed to be early the bride of death, t PoUnd Is peculiarly rich in these observance, spreading themselves throughout the year, both sexes being equally superstitions in this respect.

The pains of rheumatism are almost invariably relieved with Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills. They also overcome that nervous irritation which prevents sleep because they soothe the nerves. Tochronic suffers they are invaluable. When taken as directed, they relieve the distress and save the weakening influence of pain, which so frequently prostrates. Many sufferers use them whenever occasion requires with the greatest satisfaction, why not you? They do not derange the stomach nor create a habit. Why not try them? Get a package from your druggist.
