delicate, and great care was taken of me
because some of my relatives had died of
consumption, although my father and mother
were healthy. I grew up with only the ot

two years ago I contracted a severe cold,

after three months of this treatment I was
only worse. Then I was advised to try Dr.

better than I ever had before. I will always
have a bottle of this medicine in the house.

A Holiday Attraction,
This year Christmas comes on
Monday, and two nights later on
December 27th the opera house
management will present one of the
most mirth-provoking plays on the
road. It is a clean story of rural
life, dealing with the joys, trials
and simplicity of life on a farm.
In it there is a genuine, wholesome
ness that lends charm to all parts.
The title of tbe play is VThe Mis
souri Girl", and the company was
in Bellingham Wash., on the night
before Thanksgiving this year.
Tlie Bellingham Reveille, m speak
ing of Miss Clifton who takes the
title role, said the next morning in
commentine on the play: "Bessie
Clifton- as "The Missouri Girl"
waS a whole, show in herself. Her
interpretation, of the part was the
most ludicrous and at the same
time natural and unstudied pos
sible. Her frantic efforts to become
"citified' kept the audience in a roar
of laughter. ' .. ..
Lame Back.
This ailment is .usually caused by rheuma
tism of the muscles and may be cured by
applying' Chamberlain's Paini Balm two or
three times a day and rubbing the parts
vigorously at each application. If this does
not afford relief "bind' on' a piece of flannel
slightly dampened with Pain Balm, and quick
relief is almost sure to follow. For sale by
