beginning March’ 17, giving three
programs each week—Thursday,
Friday and Saturday—of 5 reels

iness beginning at 3 o’clock.
“We are beginning in a modest
way, said Mr. Dudley, “and if the
people will co-operate with us we
will give them the best 5 and 10-
cents moving picture show in this
section of the country. We have
magnificent machines with experi
enced operators and there is no rea-1
son why we cannot put on a good i
show with all of our 20 years experi*
once in the game. Come up and
bring the entire family. We think
you will be pleased.”
A Strong Witness
Natchez, Miss. —“The best med
icines I have ever used in my home
are Dr. Pierce’s. We
have used the ‘Gold
en Medical Discov
ery’ as a blood med
icine and as a tonic,
also for deep-seated
coughs and weak
lungs, and it was
excellent.
“I always keep-Dr.
:-'A-
Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets in. my home
for use when needed. I have given
them to my children since they were
quite small. They can be given with
safety to the smallest child, owing ;
to their being free from any injurious |
drug. They regulate the stomach, 1
liver and bowels in a mild, but very ’
effective way. I cannot speak too j
highly of Dr. Pierce's medicines.” —
