Captain J. A. Rider will give a

One admission with reserved seat,
25c.; children, 15c.
Here is what the Columbia
State ot Feb. 13 says of Captain
Rider’s entertainment:
“The “Ben Hur” recital last
night by Captain J. A. Rider for
the benefit of the Phoenix com
pany, was a meet delightful en
tertainment, and was thoroughly
enjoyed by those present. The
recital took place in the hall used
for the fair. Capt. Rider is a de
lightful speaker, with a charming
delivery, and his handling of Lew
VVallact’s great novel was exce -
lent. The illustrations aiso were
good and were much admired.
The story of the chariot race, as
might have been expected, was the
climax of the recital, and was
splendidly given.”

Blood Poliou Cured.
There is no doubt, according to
the many remarkable cures per
formed hy Botanic Blood Balm
(“B. B. B.”) that it is far the best
tonic and blood purifier ever mau-
ufactured. All otheis pale into
insignificance; when compared
with it. It cures pimples, ulcere,
skin diseases, and all manner of
blood and skin ailments. Buy
the best, and don’t throw your
money away on substitutes. Try

A BAD CASK CURED.
Three years ago 1 contracted a
blood poison. I applied to a
physician at once, and his treat
ment came near killing me. I
employed an old physician and
then went to Kentucky. I then
went to Hot Springs and remained
two months. Nothing seemed to
cure me permanently, although
temporary relief was given me.
I returned home a ruined man

pect of ever getting well. I was

In a recent letter from Wash

Major G. A. Stnder, for twenty

Moines I became acquainted with
liniment known as Chamber
lain’s Pain Balm, which I found
excellent against rheumatism as
well as against sorenees of the
throat and chest (giving me much
easier breathing.) I had a touch
of pneumonia early this week, and
two applications freely applied to
the throat and chest relieved me
at once. I would not be without
