No such company of people has ever been organized in this line of work There are six or seven comedians, and from twelve to fifteen of the prettiest girls that have ever been seen in this class of entertain-, ment. All the people are well known having 'been connected with the New York Casino, McCaull Opera^ Company, Duff Opera Company, and the best farce- comedy organizations that have been on the road for the past few years. The City Directory is not a play, but an en­ tertainment of the highest possible char­ acter. From the beginning to the end it is a succession of features which arouse the audience to the highest point of en­ thusiasm. The music is of the latest and brightest character; the dances are unique and out of the ordinary run, and the allusions to current things in the dia­ logue, places the entertainmentfar above what we have been in the habit of hear­ ing in farce-comedies. Among the people epgaged in the piece are Chaf. Reed, John Jennings, Wm. Collier, Ignacio Martinetti, Wm. F. Mack, Alf. Hampton, Harm Standish, Joseph Jackson, Samuel Meyers, W. S. Mullaly, and the Misses Helen Reimer, May Yorke, Maud Wilson, Sadie Kirby, Ollie Arcliimere, Carrie Howard, Josie Sadler, Sylvia Thofne, and Stella Ellis. / lieWoii Department I.ODGK DIRKOTORV.

We also lea.ru that extensive im­ provements will be made on the house and grounds early in the spring, and the Hotel put in shape second to none in the Northwest.

It is a little square box with a glass cover and four colored spots on the bottom. There are four pieces of felt, two red and two blue which are to be pushed on the corresponding spots by means of a wiggling bunch of quicksilver which pushes one felt off as soon as it pushes another'on. This is the spider, and a fittfng representation it |s, too, of this pesky little creature, Altogether the puzzle is much harder to do than "Pigs in the Clover." EDITOR PLAINDEALER :--I see in your paper of last week that you are offering a sewing machine to every person who will send you one hundred new subscrib­ ers.

The Record, one of Philadelphia's lead­ ing daily newspapers, published the fol­ lowing about the 5-A manufacturers whose interesting advertisements are ap­ pearing in our columns; "Wm. Ayres & Sons, manufacturers of 5-A horse klankets, lap dusters, horse sheet, fly nets, eta, are the largest mak­ ers of horse clothing in the world. They believe in making strong, honest goods which will stand rough usage, and in lib­ erally advertising them. This wise pol­ icy lias led to an enormous business, and 5-A Horse Blankets have become known throughout the entire United States as the best and strongest. The 5-A manu­ facturers have three large mills, in Phila­ delphia, in addition to their New England mills, giving employment to a very large number of working people. Owing to their superior facilities for spinning the yarns, weaving the cloth and making up the goods, they are enabled to make strong blankets at as low a price as oth­ er manufacturers can make weak ones. "Many are asking what 5-A means. 5-A on a horse blanket means that it is the strongest which can be obtained for the money. The peculiarity of the .trade mark (the figure 5 followedby an A), was suggested by the fact that there were five Ayres in the firm, the father and four sons. "The great success of thfe, l^o.use shows the benefit o| newspaper advertising. Peo,pl appreciate a good thing when thev know of it,and nothing is so potent as printer's ink to make a thing known."

' ^ How to Guard Against tlielDisease. Croup is the terror of young mothers especially during the early winter months, as it is then most prevalent. To post them concerning the cause, first symp­ toms, treatment, aud how to prevent it, is the object of this article. The origin of croup is a common cold. Children are subject to it take cold very easily and croup is almost sure to follow. The first symptoms of croup is hoarseness; it is a peculiar hoarseness, easily recognized, and once heard always remembered. Usually a day or two be­ fore the attack, the child Ikbotnes hoarse and gradually shows symptoms of hav­ ing taken cold, aud this is where the mis­ take is usually made, the mother think­ ing her child has just taken cold, gives it no especial attention until awakened in the night by the violent coughing of the child, finds it has the croup, and remem­ bers it has had a cold or been hoarse for a day or two. Such circumstances often occur, and in many cases the mother has nothing in the house that will relieve it, and may be several miles from a physi­ cian or drug store. You can well imag­ ine the situation and her distress. The time to act is when the child first becomes hoarse, or shows symptoms of having taken cold; if Chamberlain's Cough Reml edy is freely given from that time on, all tendency to croup will disappear and al- danger be avoided. The remedy prevents fully ten thousand cases of croup every year. It is the main reliance with many mothers throughout the Western States and territories; they have learned its val­ ue aud how to use it, aud in those fami­ lies croup is seldom known because it. is always prevented. C'au any mother who has small children afford to be without such a remedy? It costs but fifty cents, can she afford to take the ch ances fo r so trivial an amount ? For sale by G. W. Besley.
