"Uor Fiat"

'U0r Fiat"
Without exception one of the big
gest and best musical farce co NEEDLES
Will be seen at Harper's the atre to-
morrow evening if reliance is to be
placed in the reports that come from
New York regarding the brightness
and attractiveness o; Mrs. Musrrave's
latest comedy, "Odr Fiat" which is
now being played at the Strand, Lon
don. England, where it made a pre-
vious record Of $50 consecutive
nights. The company which appears
in the play is admitted by ali to be
one of the strongest comedy organi-
cations ever formed in the country.
There is not an individual in the
cast who has not been warmly
praised by metropolitan critics and
most of them have made distin-
guished success, notably the Jolly
Coincidence, Emily Bancker, who is
quite favorite in this city, having
appeared here before as the bright
star OF the original Gloriana COM
pany. She is not. alone one of the
most beautiful women on the stage,
but an artist who has a charming
personality and acts with finished
grace. Well known in the cast are
Will Vaudeville. Philip H. Ryley,
George w. Parsons, Charles Leonard
Fletcher and others of distinguished
merit. The pretty scenery, elegant
costuming, catchy musical special
ties. all combine to make Our Flat"
the superior of which it would be
difficult to imagine.

The New Rock Islynd lsr.d-e

Charles II. Mercer, OF Phoenix
willie. Pa. resident engineer for the
PhUnix Bridge company. was in
Davenport yesterday accompanied
by N. &. Taylor and G. p. Nicholas,
representatives of the same company,
on business connected with the re-
construction Of the Rock Island
bridge. Mr.. Mercer and the other
representatives of the company met
Col. A. X. Burlington and w. Otto
Gronon yesteI day morning and
looked over the ground and the plans
of the new bridge. Mr.. Mercer will
be engineer in charge OF the work
and hopes tocommence active oper-
ations in about week, although
some preparations will be made be-
fore that time. Several cars OF lum-
Der and other material arrived on
the ground this morning aud the
work Of .'jacking up" the spans will
be commenced as soon as possible.
IL has not been definite as to which
end of the bridge the work would be
commenced, but it is probable that
the Iowa shore will be the first scene
OF action. Although the work is
soon to commence, it will be some
time before any inconvenience will
be experienced as large amount of
preparatory work is necessary before
everything will he in readiness to 90
on with the work, aud the engineers
now on the ground give the assurance
that the work will be carried on with
as little Inconvenience as possible to
the public.

ABOUT SLEEPLESSNESS
WHAT IT IS A SIGN OF.
One of the Most Common Symptoms
of Kidney Disease, Sometimes
of Brain Trouble.
How It Can be Cared Without Dam
gerous Drugs and Opiates.

Sleeplessness is more common than
it should be.
1t is sign of dangerous sickness,
which may turn out badly.
Sleepnessness means either one or
both of two things: First, kidney
trouble; second. brain trouble.
But ii there is brain trouble, it l.
probably a complication of the kid
ney trouble.
Bright's disease, the most danger
Gus kidney trouble there is, is gem
orally accompanied by sleepless-
ness.
Nine times out of ten the sufferer
from Bright's disease doesn't find out
that he has it until it is almost too
late to be cured.
The symptoms are so like unim-
portant sicknesses that you don't
think you need a doctor, and so
things go on until the doctor can't
help you.
Even then Dr.. Hobbs Sparacus
Kidney Pills would probably be able
to cure you.
To return to sleeplessuess.
No one can do without sleep for
more than few days.
Sleeplessness is drain on YOUR
brain and your vitality. 1t mus be
stopped or something will give way
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills
will cure sleeplessness.
They do it by curing the kidneys,
by taking away the cause of the
whole trouble, by purifying the
blood.
Asparagus has a special effect on
the kidneys. as everyone who has
eaten it knows.
This effect is strengthened and
made more powerful in DIR. Hobbs
Sparagus Kidney Pills.
If it is your Kidneys, which cause
your sleeplessness, DIR. Hobbs Spar
agus Kidney Pills will cure it by
toning them up and giving them
fresh life and strength.
If it is your brain, by cleansing
and renewing the blood. through the
improved action of the kidneys. DR..
Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills will
cure the brain by giving it fresh
nourishment and new life.
To be healthy and do YOUR best
work, you must have enough sleep.
When you are losing it, a few
doses OF DIR. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney
Pills will cure you and bring rest to
your tired body and mind.
RaSiAnS clao,>loce-oe,
toms OF kidney trouble are headache,
shortness of breath,
evil forebodings. loss of flesh, swell
ing of the feet and ankles, pain in
the back.
All these symptoms are caused by
sick kidneys. All of them can be
cured by DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kid
ney Pills.
When no other drugs or medicine
will give you relief DR.. Hobbs Spar
agus Kidney Pills will. The prepar-
alton of asparagus from which they
are made land which is made bv

never been known to fail.
