Any honest physician will admit that

will not tax the organs of digestion.

it is unwse TO depend upon the action
of stimulants. When it seems impos-
sible to avoid their use take also some

FOYER AND FooTLIGHT.

St. Paul needs to have boom by and
by, as the Wilbur opera company APP
pears to be gathering up all the loose
change in town. "Squeezing room
only' is at a premium at every per-
Torrance, and hundreds have been
turned away during the run of The
Mascot" which has scored the biggest
hit of the season. Seats are selling two
erous people have purchased tickets for
the entire season. Tomorrow night
will be marked by another decided
success, for Johann Strauss divertisse-
ment. 1.-The Merry War; will be given
a splendid Interpretation. Like others
of its high class, it calls for spectacular
effect, and the past three weeks has
conclusively proven the ability of
Manager Wilbur to give the opera the
presentation 1t deserves. Several new
faces will be seen in the cast,
which will be the strongest yet
announced. w. HI. KohnIe, whose
stage work is as surprising as it is pleas
ing, will have more opportunities than
ever, as he will appear as Balthazar
Groot, the tulip propagation, which is
most comcal role, While bright Susie
Kirwin will be seen as Elsa, Groot's
Kohnle's side partner, FL. W. Ire Den
Spnola, and j. E. Conley will pose as
the Marquis Fillipo Sebastian. j. H.
Jones is booked for Col. Won Schulen.
and j. L. Ryan will vent his comedy in
the part of Ricardo. May Baker, who
is quite favorite, will impersonate the
Countess Violetta. and Lille Taylor
will appear as Artemlsia, while pretty
Belle Hamilton is cast for the sergeant.
The costumes will be as rich and pretty
as usual, and the amazon march will
again delight lovers of beauty. Prof.
NOlan's mandolin and guitar club will
play, and features Will be as plentiful
as the flowers in spring. The usual
matinees will occur on Tuesday, Thurs

The Mexican Feather WOrkerS-a
will make their first exhibition in this
country of their work and the manner
in which they produce many of those
odd materials obtained from that coun-
try at the Museum next week. This is
something entirely new to this country,
and will be extremely interesting for
| that reason. The theaters next week
will play two bright new little speciality
companies. In the upper theater,
Deave's little company of Wooden Act
ors will appear. Their entertainment
is something novel in its way. 1t is
bright, humorous and full of fun. In
the lower theater, there is to appear
quite a galaxy OF speciality stars. Coates
| q Walkers unique speciality company
has some very clever people. Frank
Bush will do graceful speciality in
light and heavy balancing, Joyce and
| Carroll will appear In racy little COM
edy sketch, and Chic and Louise Kehoe,
the famous and pretty club swingers,
have made hit wherever they have APP
peared this season. Coates and Walker
themselves will appear in their clever

cent.
ew York Sun.
The Boys Progressive society is an
organization connected with Christ
church, in Claremont avenue, Jersey
City. Each boy who becomes MEM
Der of it receives bright new cent,
which he is to dispose of to the best
possible advantage and return the pro-
ceeds to the society, to be used to buy
clothing for the heathens. Each boy is
ambitious to get more for his cent than
any other boy. The method the boys
have adopted to raise money is to send
the cents to friends along with a letter
telling their ambition.
The friends usually return the pen
MES. together with substantial offer
ing, which is Immediately turned over
to the society. and the cent is started
out on new trip. Some of the boys
have already received as much as 500
in this way, and their cents are still
travelling. Mrs. st. Johu Meyer has
two sons who are members OF the So
ciety, and several weeks ago they con
ceived the idea of sending their cents
to the Prince and Princess of Wales.
They have got them back now, they re-
port, together with these letters, which
they show to prove that British royalty
is unsympathetic:

Miss knollys is desired to return the penny,
according to request made in your letter

Those having homes of their own, or
abiding places from which they do not
have to move, should make genufec-
tions often and devoutlY of thankful
ness that such is their lot. Since the
beginning of things, man has been a
migratory animal. Impatient of re-
straint, the word home has not always
been one of such silken letters as John
Howard Payne would have us believe.
A change of location is often advisable
and desirable, and revolving circum-
stances sometimes make it necessary.
But there are very few circum-
stances that will induce a man
to voluntarily undertake a change

A Maine Doctors Den.
Kennebeck Journal.

KEnnEDGCk
A Belfast physician. who recently
bought a house. found that one of the
rooms had once been fitted up in imita!!
lotion of monks cell. The side are
painted to represent stone blocks, the
ceiling is arched and the windows are
painted to represented barred ones,
and in fact the whole room wears a
most gloomy appearance. The doctor
is much pleased with the room, and is
fitting it to be more gloomy than ever.
The floor will be painted to look like
stone, an iron bedstead is to be placed
therein and other furniture to CORE
spond. Human skeletons will undoubt-
eddy be seated about, while skulls will
be used to drink out of. This room
will be the doctors den, and bold will
be the mortal who dares to intrude.

This evening she will open a season at

the reputation Of success to commend it
to st. Paul's theater-goerS. Although a
melodrama, it is happily tinged with
farcical situations, is refreshingly en-
livened with delicious songs and pretty
dances, and is illustrated by elaborate
scenery. The support is above the Or

the entertainment is the antics OF the
