SHE BOUGHT MANY GEMS.

JeweIer Has Present Miss DeCrfs
Bought as Christmas Present.
1t appears that Mamie DeCris was
n steady customer of r. Van Keuren
and enjoyed the confidence of the firm.
1t was because of the fact that she
had from time to time purchased
several hundred dollars worth of goods
from this firm of jewelers. that the
three stone ring was sent to her in
Atlanta.
Mr.. Van Keuren stated yesterday
that Miss DeCris had made many pur-
chases from him and that at this time
she does not owe him a cent the dia-
mond ring sent her in Atlanta having
gone forward on approval. The jeweler
related that the young woman had on
several occasions purchased wedding
presents from him and that he had
delivered them in this city.
She paid her bills promptly and
claimed that she got 1915 every three

is A SERIOUS MATTER.
The Most Serious and Fatal Diseases
Arise From Indigestion.

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia,
While a very common trouble, has for
some time been looked upon by able
physicians as a serious thing, and that
no time should be lost in treating it
properly at the start. because recent
researches have shown that the most
serious, fatal and incurable diseases
have their origin in simple dyspepsia
or Indigestion.
Diabetes is simply one form of indi-
gestion, the sugar and starchy food
not being assimilated by the digestive
organs. In Bright's disease the alb1-
men is not properly assimilated.
While consumption and dyspepsia
are twin diseases. and it is beyoni
question that dyspepsia makes a fer
tile soil for the seeds of consumption.
But the trouble has been to find rem
edy that could be depended upon to
cure dyspepsia, as it is VIGOROUSLY
obstinate and difficult to cure
This has been the question watch has
puzzled physicians and dyspeptics
alike, until the question was solved
three years ago by the appearance of a
new discovery in the medical world
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
which it was claimed was a certain,
reliable cure for every form of stom-
ach trouble
~ SlNldAlS, lOWeNGI, WOulu IOl dN-
cept such statements without first CIV
ing the new remedy many tests and
carefully observing results.
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section of
the country and with surprising and
satisfactory results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
honestly claimed to be a specific, rad
ical lasting cure for indigestion in the
various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour
stomach, gas or wind on stomach, too
much bile, undue fullness of pressure
after eating and similar symptoms re-
sulting from disordered digestion.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets were not
placed before the public until this
three-years' trial left no doubt as to
their value and they have recently been
placed in the trade and can be found
on sale at all druggists at the nomi-
nal price of so cents per package.
No extravagant claims are made for
the remedy, it will not cure rheuma-
tism. pneumonia, typhoid fever nor
anything but just what it is claimed to
cure and that is every form of stom-
ach trouble. No dieting is necessary,
good wholesome food and plenty of il
and you may rest assured that Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets will digest It.
Druggists claim for it that it is pleas
ure to recommend it to dyspeptics, be-
cause it gives such universal satisfac-
ton.

AT THE THEATER

Notwithstanding the very inclement
weather yesterday, two fair sized audi
ences were at the matinee and at night,
to see Miss Sylvia Lynden, as Sophy
Fullgarney, the manicurist, in Pinero's
comedy, 1.-THE Gay Lord Quex."
To a certain degree, well within
bounds, however, the incidents and dia-
logue of the piece are rather risque. but
the working out of the story. and final
elimination of the plot, brings the
auditor to an appreciative realization
of the authors excellent work. The
/ characters are given lines to speak
that are bright and unusually clever,
though at times rather caustic, and
above board.
Miss Lyndens playing, especially in
the third act, was excellent. She Is
unquestionably an able emotional
actress, commanding great force in de-
livery and excellent facial expression,
elements so essential to pleasing por-
trayals of such a character as the one
she essays in this piece.
The Marquis of Quex, The Gay
Lord is a man of the world, with a
past to hide, and future to look to,
and the character could hardly be in
better hands than those of Brandon
Hurst, who possesses the most suave
manner imaginable, fitting the part to
a nicely.
Alden Bass and Sir Chichester
. Frayne, Miss Ann Warrington as the
Duchess of Strood, Miss Ada Zell as
Muriel Eden, all gave pleasing por-
trayals of their various parts, and the
minor characters of the cast, by the
balance of the company, were all in
diligently essayed.
Five leading actresses in America
and England have been permitted by
the grace of the author and the good
will of Mr.. Frohman to essay the part
of Paula Tanqueray. Mrs Kendall was
the first, Olga Nethersole second, Rose
Coghlan, Eleanore Duse and Mrs. Pat
rick Campbell fcllowed--a collection
of famous names in a famous play.
The author cherishes his great success
His revenues warrant him in doing so.
1t is stated on competent authority
that Miss Coghlan pays 10 per cent
of her gross receipts to the author
and had to deposit 49, 900 cash to be APP
piled on the latter part of her season.
So dearly does the author value his
play that in contracting for it he ex-
acts certain physical and Temperament
tai qualifications for the leading peo-
pie, describes dresses infinitely and in
sists upon the presence of his own
stage manager to direct rehearsals. All
these requirements having been full
filled Miss Coghlan produced THE Sec
ond Mrs. Tanqueray." Outside Of the
actresses named no one, has been per-
mitted to assume the part of Paula
Ray. and THE Second Mrs. Tanoue-
ray has never been presented at less
than a regulation New York scale Of
prices, 81, $3.50 and 81. Miss Coghlan
appears in Savannah next Monday af-
ternoon and night. The matinee prices
are IS and SOC. Evening $3.50. 81. 75c,

what matter? 1t had been ordered for a
fair queen of the stage to whom money is
not a consideration. The neck of this tea
gown was low and pointed in front, the
rows of soft ruching falling over the inside
ard being wrought into dainty rosettes at
the angle on the neck. The sleeves were
supplied with double founces that covered
the arm to the wrist.
Black velvet appliques in the shape of
leaves trimmed a second tea gown, which
was or pale green crepe de chine. The
leaves appeared upon the shoulders and
outlined the acc0rdion-plaited draperies at
the sides. The flowing fabric was bordered
with other appliques and so were the
founces about the very full skirt.

the very dainty robe of cream colored peau

completed trousseau. Applques and inser-

and skirt. Long scarf ends falling from the
collar and richly embellished with lace
formed a decided novelty.
Lace gowns are not discarded although
they have been with us so long. The fact
Is that handsome lace garment is beyond
the means of the masses. and the woman
who owns one proclaims her right to be
considered a member of the aristocracy of

Lingerie Notes.

A pretty idea for the trimming of silk
nightgown is a collar finished with a deep
hem of contrasting shade of silk. Pinks,
blues natives and ye!lows are all washing
colors, but a good make must be chosen in
order to have a fast dye. Imitation Valen-
ciennes lace is after all. the best and cheap
est trimming procurable. and 1t is almost
impossible nowadays to tell the difference
between the real and the imitation.
Many Of the best nightgowns are made
like peignoirs. Extravagant people are
using washing satin, while there is a lib
erty satin with cashmere back that Is ideal
for winter
AS for chemises silk again Is very dainty
wear, but the ordinary null muslin or ba-
tiste is just as nice and certainly extreme
iy cheap. Fine linen is effective trimmed
simply with buttonhole stitching, and,
though the cost Of this Is fairly heavy, the
wear is endless.
Nowadays there is no excuse for those
people who wear ugly lingerie, for some of
the prettiest models are quite inexpensive.
though on the other hand, we can spend q
fortune on underwear II so inclined.
