solve, and husband and wife will follow
the example of so many other married
stars and each head a separate com
pany. For more than six years the
popular comedian and his talented wife
have starred jointly, and while their
aucoeaa, both artistically and financial
ly, has been satisfactory It la felt, by
both that the public demanda their pro
feaalonal separation. Their experience
In the matter Is merely a repetition of
that suffered by James X- Hackett and
hla wife, Mlaa Mary Mannering, and
other married couplea who have at
tained popular favor behind the foot
lights.
Maxine Elliott will take a long rest
preparatory to starring next season In
"Her Own Way," a new play by Clyde
Fitch. The latter part of the month Bhe
will aall for Europe. England and
France will be visited,-and In the Sum
mer, It la said, she will go as the guast
of Emperor William and the Empress
on a long crulae In the Baltic. .Mean
while Nat Goodwin and the company
will keep on playing acroas the con

Business along Front street grows
duller aa the labor troubles continue
and all merchants agree that the dif-
ouitles should be arbitrated. The noui-
iry mantei is especially dull today, re
Mlpta being rather small and the d
nand even less. The grocery market
la perhaps the one to suffer the moat
on account or the numerous strikes and
lockouts, business in this

fornia has had a great deal of rain
more than for several years, I think
and the crops are growing beautifully.
Everyone out there seems to be happy
in the prorpect of an abundant crop. All
merchants are doing a .splendid business
and the outlook for the future is very
encouraging." '
Concerning stocks and money markets,
he says: "Storks have had a big de

holders had been pretty' well t-hnken out
nnd for that' reason it? would seem tiiat

local occurrence and can be thoroughly
investigated.
Mrs. J. Jenkins, residing at SIS East

says: "An itching and irritated spot on
one of my ears annoyed me for some
time. It spread, grew tender and I be
came uneasy about It, for it resisted
all my effort to check it, although I
used more than one salve and ointment.
My husband brought home ' a box of
Doan's" Ointment, which he got at the
Laue-DavU Drug Co.' store; and urged
me to try it. One application soothed
and after a few more the itching and in
flammation disappeared entirely. Doan's'
Ointment is the best remedy for the
purposes for which its use is advert i.
that I ever knew of."
