The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1901-03-08

The fact that after the present season
Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur sldman will not
again be seen in vaudeville will doubt
less add materially TO the size of the au-
diences at Keith's next week; and the
further fact that their Offering will be
one in which they have not before been
seen here will naturally similarly affect
the attendance. There are no greater fa-
vorites. no more finished or artistic play
ers, IN vaudeville than these clever por-
trayers of two strongly contrasting char
acter types: and the title OF their little
play, "A Bit OF Real Life," aptly de-
scribes its character.

Much interest is being manifested in

already many applications have been re-

Mr.. ShOemaker's Views Respecting

Mr.. A. f. Shoemaker, attorney for the

District Commissioners brief on the SUBJ
ject of licensing clubs to sell intoxicating
liquors. 1t will be recalled that the Retail
Liquor Dealers Association and the Anti
Saloon League have joined hands in trying
to have fewer club licenses issued this
year than have been heretofore.
After going into the law in detail Mr..
Shoemaker summarizes as follows:

required in case of a bar room. A license
cannot be granted to a club If the entrance
to it Is within less than 400 feet of the en-

ured by the shortest course of travel, as
provided in section 16.
"A license to a club does not permit 1t

accompanied by a permit from the excise
board, designating the hours during which

A SOUR STOMACH
IS OFTEN THE REAL CAUSE OF SOUR TEN
PER

Is OFTEN The REAL eau Sc OF SOUR ZEN
That the condition of the digestive organs has a
marked effect upon the character disposition Is
tru!sm old the hills. Old Ben Johnson
wisely said, 1.-The pleasure Of living depends upon
the liver and it is a fact which none may dispute
that sunny disposition more often results from a
healthy digestion than from any other cause.
Acid dyspepsia, commonly called sour stomach or
heartburn, is caused by slow digestion of food;
instead OF being promptly digested and converted
into blood. bone and muscle, it lies in the stomach
for hours, fermenting and decaying creating gases
which pressure on the lungs and heart, short
breath and general discomfort and irritation.
Such half dgested food is indeed poor noursh-
ment for the body. brain and nerves, and the result
is shown in irritable tempers, unaccountable head
aches and that depressing condition usually called
the blues" but how quickly all these disappear
when appetite and digestion are restored.
Laxative medicines only irritate the already irri-
tated stomach and bowels and have no effect upon
actual digestion Of food.
The sensible course to follow Is to make Of
simple natural digestives like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after meals until the stomach has a chance
TO recuperate.
The natural digestives which every healthy stom-
ach contains peptones. diastase and Hydro
chloric and Tactic acids and when any Of them are
lacking the trouble begins the Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets are valuable and successful in
curing stomach troubles is because they contain,
in pleasant concentrated tablet form, all these
absolutely essentials for perfect digestion
and assimilation Of food.
Henry Kirkpatrick Of Lawrence. Mass. says:
Men and women whose occupation precludes an
active outdoor life should make 1t daily practice
to use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after meals; I
have done 20 myself and know positively that
owe my present health and vigor to their daily
use.
From the time I was ~, when graduated from
school with broken health from overwork. until I
was "a, scarcely knew what It to be free
