W. A. Salroy ltd,- WIGHT “Knobs O’Tennessee” This is a beautiful story of the Southland,, beautifully told. It deals with those quaint and rugged people who live in the picturesque foothills of the mountains of Tennessee. It shows them in their endeavors to do with, as they please, that which the Almighty has entrusted to their hands. This sometimes brings them in conflict with the law of the land, and.tho they willingly send forth their sons to fight in their country’s cause, they band together and resist to the death, the representatives of the law who would say how they would use what God has given them. There is a delightful heart story running throughout the action of the play, which clearly demonstrates, when the “city lady” falls in love with the son of the mountains, that “God’s noblemen are found everywhere. ’ ’ There is an abundance of comedy and lively situations, furnished by the servants of the family, an Irishman, a Negro, and a Swede. Specialties between all the acts. Bill for Tuesday Nielli “Sweet Hyacinth” A Rural Comedy-Drama. Prices 15-25-35 cents.

Mrs. Patrick Campbell.

The visit of Mrs: Patrick Campbell, the greatest of English speaking actresses to the City of Chk'ago is the most notable event of the local dramatic season. Her appearance at the Garrick Theatre is without question important theatrically and socially, for Mr£Campbell is not only One of the greatest actresses of the world ranking with Bernliardth anti Duse, but she is quite a figure socially in London also. Her engaging personality, her marvelous though strange beauty, her ‘extreme naturalness and dignified repose compels the deepest interest and unfailing attention in her every movement; in fact it is quite impossible'not to be interested in her, lor a peculiar fascination rivets all eyes to her from the first instant of her appearance upon the scene and until she again disappears. For her appearance in Chicago Mrs. Campbell will present the following repertoire - Monday Jan. 6th, Tuesday, Jan. 7th and Wed. jan. Bth, “The Second Tanqueray”; Thursday, the = FTT“ clay the 10th and Saturday the 11 th, matinee and evening, “The Notorious Mrs. Ebbsmith”: Monday Jan. 13th and Tuesday, Jan. 14th, “Kedda Cabler”; Wednesday jan. 15th, “The Second Mrs. Tanqueray”; Thursday Jan. 16th and Friday, Jan. 17th, “Magda”; Saturday matinee, Jan. 18th, “The Second Mrs. Tanqueray”; and Saturday evening, Jan. 18th, “The Notorious Mrs. Ebbsmith.” These are the four greatest successes of her career, to which she is limiting her present American tour. Each foie is a recognized masterpiece. The prices for this engagement 'will range from 50 cents to $2.00.

I have secured the agency for the best gasoline engine that ever was manufactured. ' It is a selfigniting engine and embodies in its perfect mechanism many principles before considered impossible in a gas engine. It works as well in rain and snow as in perfect weather, and never gets out of fix. I will have one of these engines here to demonstrate shortly and want every farmer to see it work Watch for the date. W. H. Timmons.

We take orders for rubber stamps. Yon can get anything yon want on them “The Stay’s the Thing.” In corset comfort, style and wear, a superior article is always in demand. Spirella conforms to all movements ot the body. It is the most Comfortable, unbreakable stay jet produced.- It being Sufficiently strong gives all the support that is consistent with hygiene and good health. Therigid unyielding corset which supports the body in an armorlike fashion is never healthful. What every lady needs in a corset, is a garment to fit her lown perfectly, and give her grace and style which nature intended she should. Call, let Mrs. G. W. Goff take your measure and send direct to the factory. „. - ~ , When to Go Home. I.m ... -I . From the Blnffbon, Ind., Banner: “When tired ont, go home. When yon want consolation, go home.

When yon want to show yoursel fat yonr best go heme and do the act there. When yon feel like being extra liberal go home and practice on yonr wife and children first. When yon want to shine with extra brilliancy go home and light np the whole household.” To which wa would add, When yon have a bae cold go home and take Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and a quick cure is certain. gFor sale by B.
