“TRIED FOR HER LIFE”
COMING FRIDAY NIGHT.
“Tried for Her Life,” present
ed by the W. H. Hout Company
at the Crawford iast. night with
Miss Leno Hout in the star role
as “Nancy,” was an entirely j
satisfactory performance. The j
cast was the best seen here so
far this season and the patrons j
of the theatre are hoping that
the Hout company will be signed !
again for next season.
The play is a dramatization of!
Dickens’Oliver Twist and cov
ers that part of the book dealing;
with the murder of Nancy by
Bill Sikes. Oliver Twist is a
subordinate character.
There was not a weak point in j
the presentation last night. ;
The work of Miss Leno Hout as j
“Nancy” and ofWm. H. Scheller
as “Fagan” is worthy of com
mendation. — Topeka (Kansas)

“Tried for Her Life” will be:
presented at Doherty’s Theatre j
Friday night, November 25.

ARE -YOU SURE YOU OWE IT ?
You have had hills presented that you thought you
had paid, or for goods you know you had never
bought. Nobody but a Bill Collector realizes the
number of disputed bills there are the first of the
month. Of course, it’s somebody’s mistake. Goods
are often charged to the wrong customers; the mer
chant failed to credit your account when you paid
him. No matter what the reason, you don’t like to
have these things occur. Just try the Cash Plan in
the future and avoid all the objectionable features of
the credit business.
You pay a big interest for all che “accommoda
tions” you get at the credit stores. Even when you
pay cash at a store doing a credit business, you
have to pay Credit Prices. The merchant charges
the losses from “bad accounts” to his eash cus
tomers by doubling his profits. That’s the only way
he can keep even. It pays to pay Cash.

SNAKE RIVER VALLEY.
The largest irrigation enter
prise in America is located in the
rich Snake River valley of Idaho,
which has been reclaimed
through man’s handi-work alone.
In this valley which is now com
fortably settled, there remains
270,000 acres of land belonging
to the state of Idaho, which is
under the Twin Falls irrigation
canals and open to settlement.
This land is among the richest in
America, as experiments have
proved. Potatoes here yield 200
to 400 bushels to the acre of
large size and fine variety. Wheat
yields from 40 to 70 bushqls to
the acre with an average weight
af 63 pounds per bushel. Three j
_'rops of alfalfa are raised each
season in the Snake River valley.
Fhe climate is superb and of
jreat value as a tonic for mind j
, Ajr' M
and body. Home-seekers’ low
rates to the Snake River valley
are in effect via Union Pacific,
the only direct route. Why not
visit this district in person and
fully realize its great possibili
ties? For full information ad

KEYSTONE OF
Kimball Piano
STRUCTURE.
- >
The sale of the Kimball Piano is the keystone of its unsurpassable quality, the founda
tion of its great musical worth, the cause of its popularity with arlists and musicians. Perfect
piano scale-making is a mathematical problem figured out fcy sound waves to the merest fraction^
of a second. Not all piano makers strive for perfection along this line (many making no pre- v
tense), but out of the few who have nearly reached the goal,
Kimball is Prominent.
One of the most perfect musical scales is displayed in the cultivated human voice. An
imperfect scale piano is like a person who cannot sing correctly—it’s worse because all do not
claim to sing. It costs money to cultivate the voice, it costs more money to perfect a pi?no
scale. The cost to produce a perfect Kimball scale has been no less than that of °ther of the
recognized artistic pianos of the world, yet because of the advantages at the largest output
from any factory, we are able to sell the Kimball at a very moderate price, qualify considered
The Kimball System and easy payment plan brings it within reach of all.
