FOURTH SYMPHONY CONCERT.

The fourth concert of the series Of
the New Haven Symphony orchestra
takes place tomorrow afternoon April
% at the lodge hall, at 4 o'clock. This
concert finishes an important epoch In
the musical affairs of New Haven. Our
city, like other cities of it's size, has
been dependent for it's musical food up
on the large orchestras from New York
and Boston until the musical spirit"o
our musicians awoke and created
large orchestra which Is called the New
Haven Symphony orchestra.
The fact that large and enthusiastic
audiences have gathered at these con-
certs attests in itself that the efforts
of the orchestra are appreciated, and,
moreover, proves conclusively that the
citizens of New Haven appreciate the
excellent organization, The fourth con-
cert is full of beauties, as TAR as the
program is concerned, and it must ap-
peal to the many patrons of the Sym
phony orchestra and prompt them to
be present at this closing performance
of the series This program contains
the ever beautiful and interesting
Scotch symphony that was conceived
and sketched by the immortal Men
delssohn while he reveled in the coun-
try of the classic Burns. AS musical
description of old Scotland it stands as
fresh and charming as any landscape
can thus be described.
Saint-Saens' March Militaire" from
his Algerian Suite will appear. while
Miss Spieske, young and highly gift
ed violinist and scholar of the universe
ty, will surely delight the audience with
Vieuxtemps' Concerto in d minor.
But the most interesting part of the
program, especially to those who are
interested in American musical creative
talent, is an overture by w. E. Haesche.
A composition by Harry B. Jepson VIII
give evidence of the progress made in
our city in the direction of high grade
musical composition.
AS there will be a crowded house it is
advisable that those who wish to hear
this performance should apply immedi-
ately for tickets at Steinert's.

At this moment thousands of men are
standing at the crossroads of life. Death
in the guise of foolish ambition coaxes
them to take one road, while health and
happiness in the form of wife and babies
coax them to take the other. For the sake
of a few added dollars will they continue to
over-work and neglect the commonest pre-
cautions for the preservation of health, or
will they listen to love and reason and draw
back before it is too late? A man may do
almost any amount of good, hard work if he
will take care of his health and when he
feels out of sorts will take the right remedy.
The great blood maker, flesh builder and

theft lives to it and have said so over their
signatures. Druggists all sell it and all
substitutes are frauds.

When they think life is hopeless
Then Puritana can save them,

Because it has saved others.

Eggs! Eggs!!

The time is near at hand when the
market price of eggs in this section is
anything but satisfactory to producers,
and they are likely to read with inter-
est anything about an increase in
prices. Large eastern markets are in
creasing in their demand for eggs that
grade nigh in quality. They want
eggs from producers who can market
their eggs two or three times weekly.
Eggs marketed weekly do not bring
above the market price. Persons
living near Mankato and those living
near railroad stations within forty
miles of the city, who have the push
and are willing to bring or ship their
eggs to this city atleast twice weekly,
in a properly clean condition so as to
meet the requirements of the fancy
trade, can get further particulars in
this line by addressing with enclosed
