"What effect will this have on your
booking the Krlanger shows?" Mr. Helllg
was asked.
"As I said all along." he replied. "w
will book the Klaw Erlanger shows.
I did not think It would be because we
control the West, but now that we have
control and can book for the California

day comes. New York will be the back

Afraid of Ghosts
Many people are afraid of ghosts. Few people
re afraid of germs. Yet the ghost is a fancy and
the germ is a fact. If the germ could be magnified
to a size equal to its terrors it would appear more
terrible than any fire-breathing dragon. Germs
can't be avoided. They are in the air we breathe,
the water we drink.
Tne germ can only prosper when the condition
of the system gives it free scope to establish it
self and develop. When there is a deficiency of
vital force, languor, restlessness, a sallow cheek,
hollow eye, when the appetite is poor and the
sleep is broken, it is time to guard against the germ. You can
fortify the body against all germs by. the use of Dr. Pierce's Gold
en Medical Discovery. It increases the vital power, cleanses the
system of clogging imparities, enriches the blood, puts the stom
ach and organs of digestion and nutrition in working condition, so
that the germ finds no weak or tainted spot in which to breed.
"Golden Medical Discovery " contains no alcohol, whisky or
habit-forming drugs. All its ingredients printed on its outside
wrapper. It is not secret nostrum but a medicine op. known
composition and with a record of 40 ytars of curts. Accept no
substitute there is nothing "just as good." Ask your neighbors.

Interesting Reading for
Tubercular Invalids
The makers of Eckman's Alterative
the medicine that is curing tuberculosis -
all over the country will send direct, a
pamphlet and other literature that every
consumptive should read. It tells In .
their own language the story of those
whom Eckman's Alterative has cured.
Such straight-from-the-heart evidence
as this booklet holds Is convincing.
No matter if you have unfortunately
spent time and money experimenting
with nearly every "cure" under the
firmament investigate Eckman's Al
terative. If shown the heart-touching
affidavit of a father whose only son
was cured of tuberculosis by Eckman's i
Alterative after all hope had been -abandoned,
would It not carry some
weight with you? A specimen: I
718 Cherrv St., Phlla.. Pa. ',
Gentlemen. "In July, 1905. I first
noticed the conditione that showed I
had Consumption. I lost weight rapidly :
had a hollow cough, hemorrhages and
very severe night sweats. My brother
recommended Eckman's Alterative. In
the Fall of 1905 I begran to take it. At
this time I am perfectly well and ro
bust. My appetite Is good and my weight
has Increased from 110 to 140 pounds..
Not a trace of my old trouble remains.
I will gladly express the merits of this,
medicine to any one."
