THEORIES ARour FOOD.
Also a Few Facts on the Same Subject.

Also Few Facts on the Same Subject.
 We hear much nowadays about health foods and hygienic living, about vege- tarianism and many other fads along the same line.
 Restaurants may be found in the larger cities where no meat, pastry or coffee is served and the food crank is in his glory, and arguments and theories galore advanced to prove that meat was never intended for human stomachs, and almost make us believe that our sturdy ancestors, who lived four-score years in robust health on roast beef, pork and mutton must have been gross Iy ignorant of the laws of health.
 Our forefathers had other things to do than formulate theories apout the food they ate. A warm welcome was extended to any kind, from bacon to aeorns.
 A healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow in matters of diet, and mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats is undoubtedly the best.
 As compared with grains and vege- tables meat furnishes the most nutri- rnent in highly concentrated form and is digested and assimi1ated more quick ly than vegetables or grains.
 Dr. Julius Remmson, on this subject, says: Nervous persons, people run down in health and of low vitality should eat meat and plenty of,it If the digestion is too feeble at first it may be easily corrected by the regular use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of these excellent tab lets taken after dinner will digest sev- eral thousand grains of meat, eggs or other animal food in three hours, and no matter how weak the stomach may be, no trouble will be experienced if a regular practice is made of using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because they supply the pepstn and disastase necessary to perfect digestion, and every form of indigestion will be over come by their use.
 That large class of people who come under the head of nervous dyspeptics should eat plenty of meat and insure its proper digestion by the daily use of a, safe, harmless digestive medicine like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, composed of the natural digestive principles, pep sin, disastase, fruit acids and salts, which actually perform the work of di- gestion. Cheap cathartic medicines, masquerading under the name of dys- pepsia cures, are useless for indigestion, as they have absolutely no effect upon the actual digestion of food.
 Dyspepsia in all its many forms is simply a failure of the stomach to di- gest food, and the sensible way to solve the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make daily use at meal time of a preparation like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which is endorsed by the med- ical profession and known to contain active digestive principles.

FORGET. NOT THE ORPHANS.
TO-MORROW IS DONATION DAY
 AT ST. FRANCIS

Institution is Doing a Noble Work
 and Relies Solely on the Generosity
 of the Citizens to Support It-It is
 Hoped the Appeal Will be Met With a
 Hearty Response From All Who Are
 Able to Contribute.
 Help the orphans!" is the slogan for tomorrow, when St. Francis Orphan asylum will open it's doors to receive the generous gifts of the. very generous citizens of New Haven.
 Once a year this benevolent institu- ton calls upon the rich and phinlan- thropic of the city to contribute their mite towards the upkeep of the hum dreds of poor children within it's walls children who have been left alone in a cold and cheerless world without father or mother to care for and look after them. It is for these poor unfor- tunate children that St. Francis makes anf earnest appeal for support, and there is little doubt but what the ap- peal will be responded to with the same generosity that has characterized the appeals in past years.
 As usual, the same methods will be pursued in gathering up the various do- nations. The headquarters for dona- ton day will be at Music hall, Court street, where collectors will please re- port. A box will be placed at the cor ner of Church and Chapel streets to re- ceive the contributions of the railroad employees, and another will be placed at the Winchester factory for the same purpose.
 The officers for donations day are: James A. Fogarty, president; William J. Cronin, secretary; Rev. John Cor eoran. treasurer.
 In view of the extraordinary business prosperity of the present year and con- sidering the heavy debt incurred by it's managers in enlarging the main build ing and furnishing the same, it is hoped with unshaken confiderce that all the orphans friends will so participate in the good work that the liberal offerings of tomorrow will at least equal, if not surpass, those of the previous yearws. The field of charity is large-all inclu- siye. Charity-loving men and women are still found to be faithful workers in the love and service of Gods poor. Among the various forces employed to relieve, the many ills of humanity are the child-saying agencies. ..-. Called into service in behalf of the Catholic orphans Of Connecticut, St. Francis asylum year after year con- tinues it's educative and preventive tasks in child-saving work. The little ones committed to its keeping are res peued from ignorance, Restitution and crime. Its services are helpful not only to dependent children, but also to dependent adults who are. relatives of it's children. The education and train ing, both religious and secular, which it's charges receive are placed within the reach of many who would otherwise miss them.

BURGLARS ON GRAND. AVENUE.
Jewelry Store Suffers Loss of About
 $500.

$500.
 Burglars early yesterday morning en- tered the jewelry store or Andrew Tracey at 413 Grand avenue and ab- stracted therefrom forty watches, twen- ty-five gold chains, number of rings, opera glasses and pins which, all told totalled fully $500 in value.
 The entrance was obtained by forcing the rear door of the shop, which is a one-story frame building, tearing the lock from the casing, and prying it open with an iron bar. Owing to the pecul- far circumstances surrounding the case the police are of the opinion that the job was the work of tramps.
 Immediately upon discovering his loss Tracey reported the burglary to the Grand avenue police and Sergeant Klaiber and Officer Eagan were sent to investigate. Later the detective bu, reau was notified and Detectives Daly and Ward detailed on the case.

HOW HEARTS ARE BROKEN.


 'tHow Hearts Are Broken" the at traction for the New Haven theater the last three nights this week, should ap- peal to the patrons of this theater, as 1t is claimed to be production of more than average excellence. The con- struction of the play as well as it's characterization is said to be skilful and most effective. The story deals with young girl whose love has been given to an unscrupulous man who se- cures her consent to secret marriage and who later deserts her. and when a child is born of the secret union, in- stead of acknowledging her as his law full wife, he plans for her downfall by hiring a band of thugs to kidnap the child and have the mother charged with the murder. In part he is suc- cessful. The mother is placed on trial for her life and,, without money or friends, she is in great despair and about to give up the battle for her life, a famous lawyer appears on the scene and then occurs the great trial scene where the newly found friend delivers the greatest oration.

Horace Day School Erected A. D. 1888
 This Tablet

The late Horace Day was for long period secretary of the board of edu- cation. The erection of the tablet is peculiarly fitting, as this school was until now the only one in the district that was without tablet. Much cred it Is due the 1902 class for its public spirited action,
 The exercises yesterday afternoon were opened with singing by the school of the Star 'Spangled Banner" led by Professor Jepson.
 Rev. pr. Smyth was then introduced by Principal Lambert, and in fitting words addressed the. pupils of the school. In the course of his address he said after referring to the fact that MT. Day was for many years a mem Der of Center church that there were several distinguished qualities of the late MT, Day. One of these was his kindness. He was eminently kindly man with a heart full of gentleness and kindneses, and 8 smile for all, He was a large man. This was an- other quality. He was a loyal man, loyal to duty, loyal as, citizen, as an official, as a friend. When last saw him. added the speaker, which was when he was near the verge of the eternal world, he was just as. true, sweet and disinterested as when first found him when I came to New Ha- :. ven.'' %:% z, ...
 Strict integrity was another of his distinguishing qualities. s
