! Tfcori* are mnny reasons which ex

! three act farce "Some Baby," which
; Jefferson D: Angc'.is and the original
New York company will bring to the
j Grand Opera House this coming Satur
I day afternoon and'night.
[ Thsro is that pleasurable sensation
i the audience feels ill knowing .it
I knows something the characters on
! the stage do not; for the play is based
' on a long continued illusion so comi
cal the audience wilfully blinds its
ey:s to its frequent 3eemlng fortuitous
I ?events in order to preser ve the scream
! ingly . amusing confusion of ' identity,
I between an old general of slxty-fivp
'and a baby, and another a3 humorous
confusion b'tween the identities of a
girl of seventeen and another bab>v .
Many brilliant'hits and witty say-,
ings made possible by the farce clo
nic nt In the plriy support the continued
laughter. The actiou is swift, charac
if'irs go on and off to make way for
comical situation^ with almost Uiereg-'
ularity of a jumping jack; that old.
The'sleeve of the upper right starts
out as a klmona, continues as a bishop
until .it is stopped below the elbow,
by o tight fitting, up-flaring cuff. The
bishop -pulf Ib chiffon and the lower
sleeve is taffeta. At lower right we
find our favorite the simple bishop
sleeve which will be used on many of
the sheer summer gowns. .
Just to prove that the short sleeve
hasn't altogether lost favor this charm
ing model at the left ha3 been designed

Money Couldn't Buy It
The relief' he, personally experienced moved Mr W. F. Brigga,
Konawa, Okla., to write to the Pinus laboratories a letter of appro*
elation in which he says:
"Fruitola and Traxo helped me so much I am advis
ing all who suffer with gall-atones to try them. Money
wouldn't buy what this medicine has done for me."
Fruitola is an intestinal lubricant that softens the congested
masses, disintegrates the hardened particles that cause so much
suffering and expels the accumulated waste to the intense relief of
, the patient. Following a dose of Fruitola, Traxo should be taken
. three or four times a day to restore the system that has been weak
ened by constant suffering. It is a splendid tonic, acting on the
. liver and stomach most beneficially.
Fruitola and Traxo are prepared in the Pinus laboratories at
Monticello, ill., and arrangements have been made to supply them
through representative druggists. In Fairmont they can be obtain
ed'at Martin's-Drug Store on Main street.
