“The Spoilers.”
In days gone by the thrifty, ener
getic press agent of theatrical enter
tainments could only cry the virtues of
his entertainment in advance of its
appearance. Times have changed, the
representatives of big moving picture
concerns are setting a new fashion.
They appear with a copy of their
entertainment in advance of its ap
pearance and through the courtesy of
Martin and Estes, the newspaper fra
ternity were given the opportunity of
witnessing at the Press Club, Mr. W.
N. Selig’s mammouth production, in
three acts and nine parts, of Rex
Beach’s famous novel, “THE SPOIL
ERS.” We were invited, we attended,
and this is what we saw, vivid scenes,
strong action, picturing the passions
of true men, dance hall scenes in the
Alaskan frontier towns, wanton mur
der in the streets of Nome, the seisure
of the valuable mine, the Midas, by a
political boss, the organization of
vigilantes, the blowing up of this
valuable mine, gambling hall scenes,
the awful night Helen Chester, a pure,

innocent girl, spent in the Roadhouse
alone with the passion crazed Struve,
then that terrible barefisted fight be
tween two hate maddened men, the
coming of the law, and the onward
march of civilization to a barren rug
ged coutry, all of which has gone to
form part of history. All of these
scenes and many others were wonder
fully, graphically and interestingly
portrayed. “THE SPOILERS” is
really a wonderful picture, and now
the O’Neill public will have an op
portunity to witness this thrilling,
powerful picture for it is to receive its
initial presentation at the Royal
Theatre, and is to remain for an en
gagement of one day starting Monday,
September 13, 1915.
When one considers that “THE
SPOILERS” in book form when first
published, sold for $1.50, and was the
largest of the six big sellers of its
time; requiring six hours of one’s time
to read and thoroughly digest; the
best seats for the play of the same
name sold for cost $1.60, taking three
hours for presentation—and those who
have seen the play, read the book and
witnessed the picture proclaim the
picture superior to both; the picture
being exhibited for one-sixth the price
which the book sold for in the first
edition, requiring only two hours of
one’s time to thoroughly digest the
entire story, one will readily realize
that the moving picture business is
worthy and deserving of its promi
nence, its importance, and educational
value. Admission 15 and 25 cents.
None Equal to Chamberlain’s.
“I have tried most all of the cough
cures and find that there is none that
equal Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
It has never failed to give me prompt
relief,” writes W. V. Harner, Mont
pelier, Ind. When you have a cola
give this remedy a trial and see for
yourself what a splendid medicine it
is. Obtainable everywhere.

ANOTHER LINK WITH CREIGH
TON.
Creighton Citizens Add Their Praise.
Another link with our neighboring
town of Creighton is provided in the
following grateful and generous state
ment of a well-known resident there,
Mr. Fred C. Schneider, retired farmer,
who says: “I had a severe attack of
kidney trouble and was in such bad
shape that I could not move without
pain. The kidney secretions caused
me annoyance, especially at night and
I had rheumatic pains in my back and
shoulders. Colds aggravated the
trouble and made me feel miserable in
every way. Doan’s Kidney Pills
benefitted me and in a short time I
was able to do my work without
suffering.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mr. Schneider had. Foster-Milburn
Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.
