Big Attraction Tonight.
The big attraction tonight will be
"OverNighf'at the opora house,a mer
ry, mirth-provoking farce that proved
a winner for nine consecutive months
in New York, three months in Chicago
and two months in Boston. The com
pany presenting this play is
the one that amused the New
York, Boston and Chicago theatre
goers; it is a company that has no
"sticks" in it every member is a real
actor. "Over Night" is one of the
really good plays on the stage today.
You should see it.
- These ornaments enhance feminine grace and
beauty, and accentuate the seductive lines of the neck,

beautifully designed pieces. Come in and try them on.

It only costs one-fourth as much to feed
Dr. Hess Stock Tonic as it does
to grind your grain.
Did you get our letter about this?
Here is the proposition which Dr. Hess & Clark
authorize us to make:
"We want every one of your customers to
feed Dr. Hess Stock Tonic this season on
a three months test, at our expense. If it
doesn't pay, ask them to return their
empty packages, refund their money, and
we will pay you."
When they wrote that they meant it. We want you to know
that this store and our reputation is right back of that guarantee.
A 25 lb. Pail at $1.60.
You cannot afford to buy of peddlers. They have to charge
nearly double to keep up expense of man, team, etc. Besides we
are right on the ground to make good our guarantee.
And don't forget to feed Poultry Pan-a-ce-a
to keep poultry healthy nnd make hens lay, and overcome the
debilitating influences of moulting. Remember, Poultry Pnn-a-ce-a
