AT THE THEATER.

Who is not familiar with ''Hazel Kirke," which has swayed thousands from laughter to tears. and comes fresh each season? Its emotional parts, its portrayal of the hard -heartedness of a parent, the unhappiness of a beautiful girl, the fickleness of the world, it all seems new. Each time the stage is set for the scene where Dunstan K.rke. blind and in delirium, rushes into the old mill to save his drowning daughter. there are tears, and so it will ever be. The sym pathizers with Lord Carringford, Squire Rodney and Hazel are always in the audience. Hatred is ever engendered against the cold-heaiIed Dunstan, only to be softened in the last scere, when the plot is strengthened out. The older theater-goers have seen Fife Elsler and the others play Hazel Kirke,' and the old play will live on. Ib has been brushed aside by the farces, by those attractions presenting so-called plays without plots and only backed up by vaudeville stars and coarse jokes, but 1t has not been forgotten. 'sThe Wedding Day. is the rage, and many more of similar ones, but East Lynne," "Haze1 Kirke" and many more that have suffered the same fate will outlive them in memory. The Charlottesville company presented 'Ha- gel Kirke" ait a matinee performance yes terday. Last night the company pre- serted that ludicrous comedy, "All the Comforts of a Home."

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID IN-
 CREASE OF HEART TROUBLES.
DO NOT BE ALARMED, BUT LOOK FOR
 THE CAUSE.

Heart troubles at least among Ameri- cans, are certainly increasing and while this may be largely due to the excitement and worry of Am: rican business life, it is more often the result of weak stom- achs, of poor digestion.
 Real, organic heart disease is incura- ble but not one case in a hundred of heart trouble, is organic.
 The close relation between heart trouble and poor digestion is because both organs are controlled by branches of the same great nerves, the Sympa- thetic and Pneumogastric.
 In another way also the heart is af- fecttd by that form of poor digestion. which causes gas and fermentaton from half digested food; thers' is feeling of oppression and heaviness in the chest caused by pressure of the distended stomach on the heart and lungs, inter- fsring with their action; he nee arises pal pitation and short breath.
 Poor digestion also poisons the blood, makes it thin and watery, which irri- tates and weakens the heart.
 The most sensible treatment for heart troubles Is to improve the digestion and to insure the prompt ass imitation of food.
 This can best be done by the regular use after meals of some safe pleasant and effective digestive preparation, like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which may be found at most drug stores and which contain valuable, harmless digestive ele- ments, in a pleasant, convenient form.
 It is safe to say that the regular, per- sistent use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets at meal time wall cure any form Of stom- ach trouble, except cancer of stomach.
