F Faint
Spells From Heart

Terror.
DR.. Niles Heart Cure
Cured Me.

Faint spells, hot flashes and smothering
spells are too often mistaken for symptoms
Of a deranged stomach They indicate heart
weakness, as do shortness of breath, irreg-
ular pulse, hungry spells and inability to
sleep on the side. One person in every iour
has a weak heart DR.. Miles Heart Cure
makes weak hearts strong. Read this;
"During the spring of 1900 was very sick
and doctors stated that my case was one OF
palpitation Of the heart. One day / read in
one of the DR.. Miles advertisements OF a
case similar to mine and concluded 10 try
your Heart Cure. After taking four bottles
l felt that had been made into new per-
son. Before l began the use of the Heart
Cure there was light after night scarcely
dare lie down in bed for fear Of smothering;
at times / would have a choking sensation
and my throat would seem so dry / felt
there was no way / could ever quench my
thirst / had severe attacks of nervousness
and faint spells and in walking on the street
/ would often be compelled to stop for fear
of my weakness overcoming me. On the
advice Of your medical staff I used Restora-
tive Nervine with DIR. Miles Heart Cure
and l could tell while taking it that it was
doing me lots of good. l advise anyone

Popularity of Yelling

Nuns Yelling, always a popular fab
ric, is this season greatly in demand,
and for the first time is it made up in
coat and skirt costumes, that is, to any
great extent, for although last season
there were quite few costumes made
after this pattern, the style never be-
came so to speak universally fashion
able.
Both long and short coats are now
made of yelling to match the gown with
which they are worn, and there are also
separate yelling coats in white and
black, gray or tan. However smart as
are these, they do not meet with tne
same favor as the lightweight cloth
pongee or silk separate coats.

A TRUE FACT

The active merchant the dnielAgeni
buyer-these move the universe, and while
love OF life and tho incessant struggle for
its best attainments make the people de-
pendeh upon their merchant, the mer-
chant Is equally dependent upon the peo-
pie. The one tremendous idea which per-
vades an trades and all people is conh-
dence. This makes satisfaction yours and
success ours. The success Of the Surpr.se
stores, No. 500 Market strece and East
Third street IS only based upon these facts
on which It is increasing trade daily. Call
at the store and be convinced.

PLAYS AND PLAYERS

Henry Miller, with tue best supporting
company he has ever had, direct from his
successful run at the Savoy Theatre, New
York, will appear ait the Grand Opera
House tonight in ''The Tanning Of Helen"
a new original comedy by Richard Hard
ing Davis. Mr.. Davis wrote the play es-
peciauy for Mr.. Miller, and from all ac-
counts has fitted him with 1.-THE best role he
has ever had in his stage career. Mr..
Miller will appear in a comparatively new
hieht i'm THE Tanning o. Helen" Hitherto
his talents have been Identified with heav-
lier productions, and his work as Sydney
Carton will be long remembered as one Of
the very. finest bits of serious acting seen
lin recent years. In sharp contrast to the
rather depressing. though artistic, Sydney
Carton will be found the role of Philip
,Carroa. which Mr.. Miller plays in "The
framing of Helen" The part is that of a
'voung American author who goes to Lon
don 10 sell play and TO save the girl he
loves from the intrigue of dissipated
English gentleman. Intermdnged with
athis serious story there are many minor
comedy threads which show Mr.. Miller as
light comedian. The serious love story
,between Philip Carroll the author and
Helen Cabot the American hsiress, Is the
main theme Helen Is temporarily fasein-
ated bv Lord Woodcote. and because she
.misunderstands the interest taken IN
Philip BY another woman, the heiress'
Helen, foishly engages herself to marry
This titled roue The experience tames
her sufficiently, and in the last act wher
philips play fs being Produced and sht
realizes that the actress was interested
i'm the drama and not in the author Helen
comes to Philip and meekly oonfesses her
iove. This last act Is very novel stage
sstting and odd bits of characterization
which could come only from the author
with the creative genius Of Richard Hard
Ing Davis. Prominent among Mr. Miller !
Company are Miss Grace Ellison MIS-
|l.zmilv Dodd. Miss Martha Waldron, Mis-
iOrina De Wolfe, and Messrs. Percy Lyn
lam. Cranley Douglas, John Flood Bert
.-am Harrington, and others.
