Maude Atkinson, a favorite with
Dawson theater-goers, will appear at
the opera house Wednesday and Thurs
day nights, December 2nd. and 3rd.,
opening with Faust.
The Nashville (Tenn.) Banner says:
*“The Maude Atkinson company pre
sented something novel last night in
their production of ‘Faust’ at the
Grand. Miss Atkinson herself appear
ed in the title role, being positively
theonly actress who takes the part of
Faust. Besides the novelty of it she
acted well, displaying no small amount
of ability in doing the difficult parts.
Edwin Southers took the part of Me
phisto and did himself much credit as
an agent of his Satanic majesty. In
fact, he did some fine- acting and was
voted by many as doing some of
the best work of that sort that
has been seen in Beardstown for a long
time.”’

WATSON STILL WAGING WAR.
MORE RED PEPPER RUBBED INTO
BUTLER’S OPTICS,
The Populist Chairman Accused
of Shipwrecking the Popu
list Party.
Tom Watson has been rubbing more
red pepper into the wounds of Senator
Marion Butler. In his paper
he publishes his answer to Sen
ator Marion Butler, and it is without
any appearance of conservatism. In
his reply Mr. Watson says in part:
*“You did not dare to publish it (the
first letter) because you felt its ar
raignment of you to be unanswerable.
Mr. Washburn’s telegrams (to which 1
was no party) did not control you then
in not publishing the letter any more
than they control you now in suppress
ingit. The truthis, senator, you feel
yourself to be a deeply guilty man—as,
indeed, you are. Instead of managing
this great campaign in a spirit of
broad patriotism and of courageous
loyalty to your nominee and your par
ty, you have allowed your personal ill
will toward me to divert you into a
tortuous, narrow, jealous and disloyal
policy, which has shipwrecked the
people’s party and brought the success
of Mr, Bryan to a crisis of extreme
peril.
“Younow plead with me to pull you
out of the hole. I shalldo nothing of
the kind. You pecked your way into
it and you must peck your way out.
‘‘Sentor, you were selected as chair
man to help me with this campaign.
You were to act with me and for me.
You have not doneso. You have acted
without me and have acted against me.
At no time have you told me of your
plans or your purposes.
“In all this you may beright, and I
may be wrong. The committee called
off by you to oneside at Chicago has
sustained you and censured me,
Therefore my position is most painful,
The Bryan-Sewall committeeis against
me and the Bryan-Watson committee
is against me.
“I stand alone.
‘‘But, senator, I was a populist while
you were still camping with the demo
crats, and I have always been a middle
of-the-road populist, while you have
never been. A fusionist you have al
ways been, and you bargain with the
republicans in one campaign and with
the democrats in the next. In this
campaign you have bargained with
both republicans and democrats.
“God only knows which bargain you
intend to keep.
“I do not believe that the time has
yet come when populists will say it is
treason to be loyal to the populist tick
et. It is unnecessary for me to say
that my letter of acceptance must
stand justasit is written. Yours. etc.,

rom Catarrh.
€
The sufferer from catarrh, perhaps,
meets with more discouragement in
seeking a cure than those afflicted
with all other ailments. After ex
hausting the skill of the best physi
cians, and inhaling various mixtures,
paying out large sums for doctors’
fees and medicines, he finds himself
either as bad off as at first or a great
deal worse. :
_The cause of this is easily explained.
The disease is in the blood, and only a
l real blood remedy can possibly have
any effect upon it. The doctors being
i unable, with their stereotyped reme
~dies of potash and mercury, to cure
diseases of the blood, direct their
efforts toward treating the sy mp
-1 toms of the disease, and ignoring its
~cause. The inhaling of various sprays,
and use of washes, etc., is but a su
perficial and temporary treatment,
and cannot possibly effect a cure.

MRS, JOSEPHINE POLHILL.
Mrs. Josephine Polhill, of Due West,
8, C., was for years a sufferer from
this distressing complaint, and has
learned by experience its tortures.
She says:
‘“‘For years I was the victim of the
worst case of catarrh that I ever
heard of. I was treated by several
doctors, and took mumerous medicines
claiming to cure the disease, but in
stead of being benefitted my condi
tion grew worse steadily.
‘“The trouble became 8o deep-scated
that I was entirely deaf in one ear.
| It is difficult to describe my condition,
| but some idea of the ravages of the
disease can be obtained when I state
’ that all the inside of my nose, includ
ing part of the bone sloughed off. It
can be readily understood how offen
sive all this was, and how unbearable
my condition became. When the
disease had gone this far the physi
| cian gave me up as incurable, and
| told me I would never be any better.
\ ‘“‘Reading of many similar cases be
| ing cured by S. 8. 8., I determined to
{ try it as a last resort. I soon discov
| ered that all my former treatment
| had been wrong, as the disease was in
| the blood, and only a blood remedy
couid cure it. I began to improve at
once, and grew better as I continued
totake S. S, S, It seemed to get at
the seat of the disease, and after a
few weeks’ treatment I was entirely
cured, and for more than seven years
l have had no sign of the disease.”’
Catarrh is one of the deep-seated
Iblood diseases, and only a thorough
blood remedy will have any effect
upon it. S. S. S. is the only blood
