Opera Company will present the great
musical comedy success, THE Toreador. .
under the direction of Sam S. Shubert and

is undoubtedly the best of all the London
gaiety successes has met with phenomenal
favor in this country. 1t was produced
last season at the Knickerbocker Theatre,
New York, where it played to crowded
houses for seventeen weeks. Durrg SIX
weeks season in Philadelphia, it was pro-
nounced the best musical comedy seen
there in years. Mr. De Angels in his pres
ent piece, is given one of the best roles
he has ever had, and manages through a
series of situations in which he is placed
to get into some of the most amusing
complications ever laughed at. The pro-
duction is most elaborate and effective,
and a most charming and picturesque
series of stage pictures have been evolved.

WEIGHT ON YOUR
s TOMACH?.

There's nothing lacking from the argument
that you are suffering from disorder you don't
understand.
The weight OF the argument is there pressing
on your stomach depressing your whole spirit
and being. 1t makes you Stomach Coward.
In trying to relieve you, many friends and some
doctors are proving their stomach ignorance.
You must learn this: THERE ARE a LOT
OF NERVES GOVERNING THE GASTRIC
AND DIGESTIVE APPARATUS OF YOUR
STOMACH Your sluggish bowels get them out
of order. The weight on Your Stomach is Ner-
vous Disorder.
The other symptoms you know-dyspepsia,
seepessnes, dizziness, palpitation, fits of blues
and general nervous depression. You get dizzy
and walk about in dreadful uncertainty
You have got to fix up those stomach nerves
before you can lift the weight.
