FOOD STRENGTH.
1T COMES FROM THE RIGHT FOOD
PROPERLY DIGESTED.

Food strength is natural strength. 1t Is
new strength; created strength. That Is,
1t Is not stimulation.
The real strength of your body is your
constitutional strength, your reserve
strength. 1t Is the result Of eating proper
food and digesting 1t.
Eating food does no good at all; rather
harm-unless II Is digested. So that every8
thing narrows itself down to one PROPOSE
ton: How Is your digestion?
One person In three Of us. have indiges-
tion in some form or another. 1t is not
really disease, but condition; q condi-
tion which may become serious.
We all wish to be strong, and we might
all become so II we digested our food. The
loss of your strength Is a serious matter.
1t may be the beginning of a dangerous
disease. 1t may mean that you cannot go
on with your work.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is an aid to
digestion. 1t is a strength maker. II
makes your food nourish your. 1t makes
you strong. 1t relieves at once all the
symptoms of acute dyspepsia, tones up the
system and creates flesh, energy and
strength. Taken regularly 1t will perma-
nently cure indigestion and make the
weak, thin, irritable, nervous dyspeptic,
strong, fat, hearty and well again.

able young woman, and has the distinction
among the profession of never having been
classed as an amateur or never having
made debut. A few actresses are born
with talent; many acquire talent, and the
large majority imagine they are talented.
Miss Hollis is one of the first class named,
and inherited the natural gifts which
have made her prominent. Her family,
the Thayers of Lynchburg, Va, are one Of
the foremost of the State, and are con-
nected with the Mitchells and Loraines.
To Southerner this is sufficient guaran-
tee of Miss Hollis standing.
Her father was graduate of West Point
and served with distinction as Captain
i'm the Confederate service. He opposed
the desire of his daughter to go on the
stage, but his opposition was finally over
come. Mrs. Thayer was recognized So
ciety leader in Lynchburg. Miss Hollis is
nothing il not progressive, and while an
advocate of woman's rights, moral and
dress reforms and athletics for her sex,
does not allow her views on these subjects
to get the better Of her good judgment.
Miss Hollis is a disbeliever in the use of
corsets, and her carriage strongly advo-
Gates her theory. Her success in New
York as a member of Augustin Daly's
company in Shakesperian plays and light
comedy was marked.
