many years ago it was great Boston

form, and deserving a deal Of credit for
their excellent work. The company car
ries all its own cenery for it's several
different plays. The company also car
ries its own orchestra, which Is COM
posed of ladies, and for a half hour be-
fore each performance they give very
delightful concert. The programme last
evening consisted of the following Sc
lections: Battle of the Waves" march;

lected pieces. A number of pleasing
specialties are introduced between the
acts, including songs and dances by the
Sisters Bastedo Berrie, Carrie and Eta,
and the Deagom in a number of pleas
ing songs. They also give number of
illustrated songs, which were loudly ap-
plauded. Mr.. Wilson has gathered

A Proflta BILE Investment.

Jno. Blakely of w. Lebanon, Pa, re-
ports that he got more value from 81 .0C
worth Of Grape-Nuts food than from
5000 spent in noted hospitals, trying tc
get we'll from stomach trouble He
says: "After all my experience I had
to come home thinking there was no
cure for me. I was so weak and nerv-
GUS ! could hardly walk, and for three
years I hadn't a. good nights sleep. I
was run down until I only weighed 100
pounds.
IT commenced using Grape Nuts
about a. year ago and now I weigh 1853
pounds, and can do as good a days
work as anyone. When I go to bed T
sleep all night peacefully and am re-
freshed in the morning. 1 use Grape
Nuts food every day and know it is
the greatest blessing that ever was
sent to suffering humanity. I believe
if it had not been for this food 1 would
have been under the sod before this"
There is reason. No food in exist
ence contains, in concentrated form,
the elements that will rebuild the
nerve centers and the brain, as Grape
Nuts, and the beauty of the food is
that 1t is perfectly cooked at the fac
tory and by the process of manufac-
ture is predigested in a natural way
therefore requires but trifling power of
the stomach to digest it.
