At Temple Theatre Soon
Twenty years ago the reading of
novels in the omniverous manner of
today did not exist and the stories
read had to pass the censor of a
most critiacl public and to no writer
was the entre extended to such an
extent as to E P Roe the Pres
byterian minister novelist His stor
ies while possessing unusual merit
were also clean and wholesome and
possessed morals that sank deep in
to the readers minds leaving one
a better man or woman for having
read the book for this reason his
writings were read and are still read
by all
Barriers Burned Away dealing
with the great Chicago fire has been
read for one quarter of a century by
over 3000000 people and it is safe
to say that over 1500000 copies of
the book have been sold
George Middleton who dramatized
The House of A Thousand Candles
and Rosalind at Red Gate has made
an excellent dramatization of this
story and it is easily proving the suc
cess of the present season
Coming soon and if local interest is
any criterion capacity audiences will
greet its engagement here

AN EXPANDING BUSINESS
Having outgrown their old oven
Barbarzette Son are putting in a
new and larger oven at their bakery
The new oven is of the Middleby
make and has the distinction of
being the largest portable oven in
the world having 120 square feet of
surface and having dimensions of lOx
12 feet weighing 23 tons installed
This will necessitate a considerable
increase in the size of the bakery so
the oven is being installed in a sep
arate building of brick and galvanized
iron in the rear of the present plant
This increase in facilities will be
still further enlarged by the installa
tion of bread and cake mixing ma
chines to be operated by electric
motors When contemplated improve
ments are completed Barbazette
Son will have one of the best and
most modern bakery plants in the
state and will be able to take prompt
care of not only their growing home
demand but of an increasing call for
their excellent products from points
both east and west of McCook

McCOOK RED WILLOW COUNTY NEBRASKA THURSDAY EVENING MARCH 2 1911
Your Immediate Attention
should be given to any tendency on
the part of your children to become
round shouldered This is because
of the fact that such tendencies are
more easily corrected in childhood
than in later years and if proper at
tention is given to them the child is
given every advantage to attain to
perfect man or womanhood One can
not be too careful concerning these
matters or the means taken to correct
such inclinations
Most shoulder braces produce harm
ful effects in that they interfere with
or retard circulation
THE REXALL SHOULDER BRACE
most effectually overcomes the ob
jections raised to most shoulder brac
es on the market and for this reason
they are strongly recommended by
medical authorities
We have the exclusive sale of this
brace and can fit any from the child
of four years to the adult Price
