Great things are predicted for the production, and exceptional preparations are being made for the initial performance. It is hardly to be expected, however, that the talented Pole will take as high rank as a composer’as he occu pies as an interpreter of composi tions, since nature seldom ^vouch safes to a man to excel in more than one thing.

Dr. E..E& DIXON & CO. The liniment bottle and flannel strip are P familiar objects in nearly every household. They are the weapons that have been used for generations to fight*old Rheumatism, and are about as effective in tlie battle with this giant' i Jjy disease as the blunderbuss of our forefathers / * would be in modem warfare. Rheumatism is caused, by an acid, sour ^ condition of the blood. It is filled with acrid, irritating matter that settles in the joints, muscles jnd nerves, arid liniments and oils nor nothing else applied externally can dislodge these gritty, corroding particles. They were deposited there by the blood and can be reached only through the blood. Rubbing with liniments sometimes relieve temporarily the aches and pains, but these are only symptoms which are liable to return with every change of the weather; the real disease lies deeper, the blood and system are infected. Rheumatism cannot be radically and permanently cured Until the blood has been purified, and no remedy does this so thoroughly and promptly as S. S. S.
