AN ABSOLUTE nsssMsasssssBn So Thinks' nV Wast One Travellna Man, I would as soon think of starting out without mileage book and grip as to start out on a trip without a box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets In my va Use, said a traveling man who repre sents a St Louis hardware house, Why Because I have to pat up at all kinds of hotels and boarding houses I have to eat good, bad and indifferent food at all hours of the day and night, and I don't believe any man's stomach will stand that sort of thing Without protest, anyway I know mine won't. It has to have something to break tlic fall, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the crutch I fall back upon.

My friends often "Josh" me about it tell me I'm an easy mark for patent medicine fakers, that advertised med clues are humbugs, but I notice that they are nearly always complain Ing of their aches and pains and poo: digestion, while I can stand most any old kind of fare and feel good and ready for work when It needs me, anil I believe I owe my good digestion ar.d sound health to the dally, regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, year iu and year out. and all the "Joshing" in the world will never convince me to tbe contrary I used to have heartburn about three times a day and a headache about three or four times a week, and after standing for this for four or live years I began to look around for a crutch and found it when my doctor told me the best Investment I could make would be a 60 cent box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and I have In vested about 50 cents a month for them ever since, and when I stop to think that that Is what I spend every day for slgars, I feel like shaking hands with for I can keep my stomach and digestion in first class order for 60 cents a month. I don't care for any better life Insurance. My druggist tells me they are the most popular of all stomach medicines and that they have maintained their popularity and success because they do as advertised. They bring results, and results are what count in patent medicines as much as in selling barb wire.

A Woman's Complexion. It Is rank foolishness to attempt to remove sallowness or greaslness of the skin by the use of cosmetics or local" treatment, as advocated by tbe beauty doctors." The only safe and sure way that a woman can Improve her complexion Is by purifying and en riching the blood, which can only be accomplished by keeping tho liver heal. thy and active.

The 8tar, Miss Emerson, Did Well, But Her 8upport Was Deficient Mary Emerson came to the Broad St. theater last evening In a romantic drama In four acts, entitled "HI Majesty and the Maid." The audience was small and while apparently critical was not slow to express Its approval of the good features. Miss Emerson Is a handsome young woman, and.

as Alicia, has a role demanding a great variety of temperaments, which she portrays in a pleasing and saUsfac kory manner. In. the climaxes she was at her best, and that was excellent The part of Alicia's wooer was In the hands of Max Aronson, who failed to rise to the requirements of the character, In striking contrast to the work of the star. The plotting sneak. Count Norberg.

always ambitious for power, was well portrayed by J. J. Crowley. The humorous character of the play, that of Michael, a clumsy country lad. with a wonderful appetite, was well taken care of by William Weston.

The King Charles of James Addison was fair, while the other actors fell below the average looked for In a play of such a character. The story of tbe play Is Interesting, even novel in several features, though marred with a couple of Improbable situations. The costumes were faithful to the times, as also was tho scenery. In considering last night's production, it should be borne in mind that It was but the third performance given by the company. The playfruelf Is clever one and Miss Emerson, together with several members of her company, are performers of exceptional merit.

With the Improvement that will doubtless result from the repeated production of the play. It will likely rise to the level of the first class theatrical attractions. Ran a Ton penny Nail Through His Hand. While opening a box, J. C.

'A i. If iv (TALK NO. 179.) There Was a Collision on the Hudson river which, It was claimed, was caused by the want of sight by the pilot on one of the vessels. On examination, it was found that his eyes were perfect so far aa any disease was concerned, but that he had about one half the vision he could have had if he had worn correcting glasses. Of course his position only demanded that he should be able to see the lights, but In this case the accident could have been avoided by tho pilot had he taken the precaution to have his vision corrected with glasses.

You think at once that he was a foolish man on general principles, yet there are many people who read this article just as foolish in this respect. I am helping hundreds of people. Can I help you? W. L. McDOUGALL, Optician and Jeweler.
