Z TWO SUCKERS STRUNG.
, A tent show in Abilene advertises
“W ony to be siven-to the holder-of
the lucky coupon issued, by the tent
show, it is a raffle-nothing more,
nothing less; a raffle to a game of
chance, under whatsoever cover, to
gambling. A number of the best
citizens of Abilene have protested
against the unnatural drawing and
have offered to take the babe out of
the hands of those who would traffic
in human flesh and procure the in-
nocent victim a good home. The peo-
ple of Abilene who would maintain the
good name of their city should rise en
masse against this relic of barbertom.
—San Angelo Standard.
Surely this relates to an advertising
dodge, rather than a genuine case of
cold-blooded inhumanity. As an ad-
vertisement such a scheme could be
little less than disreputable as a real
rattle, with a real baby at the stake.
It would be only a brooch of decency,
but a crime against the law.—Dallas
News.
The Angelo and Ballinger papers
took the cork under. There was no
protest or excitement in Abilene, nor
did any one offer to take “the baby"
out of the hands of the show company.
The facto are as follows: A traveling
show company adverttoed that it would
give away a “live baby” on a certain
night to a bolder of a lucky ticket. Of
course there was some speculation as
to what kind of a baby it was, but not
even the most unsophisticated thought
it a human baby. After the perform-
ance the drawing took place an the
“baby”—a pig—was awarded the
lucky person, amid considerable laugh-
ter.—Abilene News.

that it is impossible for those who go
to hear Dr. Cook lecture to get stung.

The habit of the fanners of adver-

"GRAUfiTARK."
Clean and Wholesome Production Fea-
ture at Wichita Last Night.
A charmingly impossible play was
‘‘Graustark,’’ presented to a large
audience at the Wichita last eight, and
the production pleased in full measure.
The play is fanciful in the extreme, as
is usually the case with these plays
based on the theory that love will find
a way. The one criticism that might
of It to that it is monotonous in spots,
although the action, what there was of
it, was lively enough. 1
Maurice Brierre, Jr., as *'Grenfall
Larry,’’ the hero of the plot, handled
that part artistically. His good looks
won the female contingent of the au-
dience at the very start and he fitted
his part well. Clyde McCabe, as “Har-
ry Anguish,’’ broke several tease situ-
ations ‘with his happy humor and he
also won much favor. James Lewis,

Quality Clothes and Our Guarantee
“GUARANTEE" is a fine, strong word often misused. When we use it here we
mean everything the word means, and that means your protection. When we
sell you a suit or overcoat from The House of Kuppenheimer we not only do all in
our power to aid you in selecting a garment that will be 100 per cent right in every
point of style, of wear, fit and tailoring-we do more: •
We take all the risk of your dissatisfaction on ourselves—we leave ourselves no loop-
holes—we give our word with no string attached. We say every Kuppenheimer garment
you buy from us must prove right in every vital point—in every single detail. And we
are here to make good that guarantee--in any way you like. Back of our guarantee stands
another-it’s our strength—our surety--the maker’s guarantee that their garments must
satisfy you who wear them. That’s our faith-it’s well-founded faith—for it’s based on
quality. We illustrate two good models, the Derbyand Warwick. There’s plenty of style
and snap to them combined with gentlemanly good taste.

enabled one to overlook the undoubted-

Gray as ‘‘Countess Dagmas,’’ was a
jolly bit of femininity who handled

“‘Graustark”’ was a happy relief
from some of the plays that have ap-
peared here during the present season,
and it was viewed with much favor by
its Wichita audience. .
