Whatever else has been accomplished
in Cuba, the health of the island has
been wonderfully improved.
In Havana the change has been
magical; streets have been asphalted,
sewers built, buildings whitewashed and
drug stores supplied with scientific, up
to-date preparations. The demand for
Paine's celery compound has grown to
enormous proportions.
The following statement from E. ].
Molina of the Havana Custom House
shows the standing Paine's has already
secured among the most progressive,
energetic people of Havana:
Havana, Cuba, Feb. 4, 1901.
Wells & Richardson Co.:
Dear Sirs-I take great pleasure in
stating that have used your Paine's
celery compound, both while in the
United States as we'll as in this city,
and find it to be of wonderfully restor-
ative power, especially in this enerva-
ting climate.
Very truly yours,
E. J. MOLINA. &

GRAPE-NUTs.
A SCIENTIFIC BREAKFAST.

Rightly selected food will cure more
than half the diseases. Try a scientific
and healthy breakfast Fruit OF some
kind, preferably cooked: a dish of Grape
Nuts, with cream; two soft-bofled eggs
Put two eggs in tin pint cup Of boiling
water, cover and set off for nine minutes
Whites viii then be the consistency of
cream and most easily digested. One
slice Of bread with butter; cup of Postum
Cereal Food Coffee.
On that breakfast you can work like n
horse and be perfectly nourished until
noon. Your nervous troubles, heart pal
pitation, stomach and bowel troubles.
kidney complaints and various other dis
orders Will gradually disappear and firm
solid health will set in
Why? You have probably been living
on poorly selected food, that is, food that
does not contain the required elements
the body needs. That sort Of food, and
coffee, is the direct or indirect cause of
more than half the ills the human body
acquires.
Grape-Nuts is a perfectly cooked food
and both that and the Postum Food Cof-
fee contain fine microscopic particles o.
phosphate Of potash obtained in a natural
way from the grains of the field and by
scientific food experts Incorporated into
food and drink. That element joins with
the alblImen in food to make gray matter,
which is the filing of the brain cells and
the nerve centers all over the human
body.
A man or woman thus fed is scientifcal-
ly fed and rapidly grows in vigor and vi
tality, and becomes capable of conducting
successfully the affairs of life. To pro-
duce a perfect body and a money-Inak1ng
brain the body must have the right kind
Of food. and the expert food specialist
knows now TO make it. That is Grape
Outs and Postum Cereal Food Coffee,
bnoduced at the pure-food factories OF
the Postum Cereal Co., Ltd, at Battle
Creek, Mich.

Molina is but one of many promi-
nent Cubans who have publicly ad-
vised the use of Paine's celery COM
pound, basing their recommendations
on the benefit they themselves have de-
rived from its use.
Not only among business men, law
yers, clergymen and physicians, but
among all classes of thoughtful, intel
ligent people, Paine's celery COM
pound is the one reliable remedy for
building up the system when it is run
down. 1t is the greatest nerve and
brain invigorator the world has ever
known.
If your wife, daughter or sister is
pale, languid, headachy and irritable,
persuade her to try Paine's celery
compound. If your husband, son or
brother cannot eat, sleep or work, and
drowsy, dyspeptic and respondent, in
duce him to take Paine's celery COM
pound.
1t restores worn and weak nervous
system to healthy vigor.
There can be no substitute for
Paine's celery compound

ST HE Tivoli was crowded Tuesday
night to its capacity for the in
itiaI performance of la Bo-
II heme," the first time Of its giving
at the popular house. The opera
is excellently cast, and went with spirit
and considerable smoothness. For the
first time this season Montanari is heard
in a role that fully suits her, the grace
full and pathetic little figure of the Paris
ian grisette Mimi and she is wholly SYM
pathetic and pleasing in the part. Agos-
tint is a splendid Rudolph, singing mag
nificently and acting with ardor and truth.
His duet with Montanari in the first scene
was exquisite. Repetto is a dainty Mu-
setta. playing and singing her part with
grace and spirit. The Bohemian trio,
Schaunard, Marcel and Colline, are re-
spectively sung by Zani. who does effect
i've work as the hungry musician; Fer
rari whose Marcel is conceived in clever
comedy spirit, and Dado, whose fine
basso was invaluable in Colline's part.
Dado was encored enthusiastically in the
pathetic song to his old coat. Cortesi does
very good work-he has been useful
member of the company this season-in
the usual double role of Benoit, the hard
hearted landlord, and Alcndoro. The
opera is admirably staged and costumed,
goes easily and smoothly. 1t is a little
boisterous in places, but will doubtless
tone down with further presentments.
La Boheme' goes again tonight and
Norma with AVedano, Barbareschi,
Pollettini and Dado, comes tomorrow.
"The Henrietta" at the Columbia, in the
competent hands of Stuart Robson and
his company, is delighting good audiences
every evening. A more finished and salts
flying conception than that of Mr.. Robson
as BERTHE the Lamb would be difficult to
ina CINE and Maclyn Arbuckles Old Nick
is almost equally picturesque. OF the
feminine members of the company Miss
Dorothy Rossmore as the fascinating
widow, Mrs. .Opdyke, is most pleasing.

A Boar. Gallant Esc.ps.

Bacon says, "Hog-hunting Is not
only more scientific, but is more
dangerous sport than tiger-hunting."
The boar is terrible enemy, and also
an alarmingly agile one. Isabel Saw
ory, the author of "a Sportswoman in
India" mentions one evening, when,
after days pig-sticking, stories of the
hunting-f field were told, and the
mighty boar" became their principal
theme. Here is one tale of splendid
escape A boar, which had been hard
pressed, galloped into nullah, very
sharp, deep cut more like narrow
chasm than a ravine. Down this, along
the bottom of it, he raced, followed
by a sahib on a swift horse. The banks
on either side, overhanging the pig.
were six feet or more in height. Sud
denly the creature turned a sharp cor
ner, which hid him from view. Then,
by tremendous effort, he scales the
bank and gained the top. He turned
short round, leaped the entire width
of the nullah, and landed safely on the
other side, clearing both horse and
rider as he jumped, save for the sahib's
pith helmet, which he knocked of. He
had escaped 80 as by fire."
