actress in the large cast was fully able to
meet the requirements of his or her part.
The company used their own scenery, and

Traps for the Young.-
By Anthony Comstcck, a former resi-
dent of this place. This book, by one
who for over eleven years has haunted
the haunts of vice to bring its victims _to
justice (lit-closes in a graphic, yet prudent
manner, the many insidious ".raps" by
which the young are ensusrétl and cor-
rupted. This testimony of an eye-wit-
ness must bring to the mind of thought-
that the facts disclosed, however startling
and unreal they may seem, arc neverthe-
less trus. To conceal them. because
distasteful to those of pure morals, would
bennmanly, while to expose them in a
free, sensual manner would but spread
the evil more and more. Mr. Comstock
seems to have avoided both extremes, and
.whilo conscientiously telling “what he
hath seen and board,“ has sought to
feed the mind of the reader with fact
rather than to excite the' passions
with improper language or represents-
tions. We urge upon parents thee,
duty to acquaint themselves with the
causes, that they may’avoid these traps
and snares. This information Mr. Com-
Nstock has fully, prudently and i'eliably
‘laid before us in this valuable book.

YOU MAY THINK
Houdini Purifier
Costs too much, $3.00 per
bottle. But please remember-
the bottles hold one quart, and
that when taken according. to
directions it will last from 4 to
6 weeks, and, too, it is pure.
Dr. Howcs said to' me when
here a short time ago, "there
is nothing in this ll‘lCt‘llCIllO but
that is as wholesome as the
bread you out, the preserving
ingredient is pure Elderberry
wine,” etc.
If you are suffering with
Dyspopsiumr Rheumatism or
impure blood or chills and Ye-
vel‘, this modicinrg will do
you good. I have sold 184
bottles. Try it.
